This question is like a pebble cast onto a calm lake surface.
Everyone’s gaze, without prior arrangent, focused on Isabelle’s exquisitely beautiful yet cold face.
Indeed, if they had never t before, why would this unfathomably powerful Dragon Clan woman...
ask such a question as, "Do you know ?" upon her appearance?
Faced with Aster Grant’s question, Isabelle remained silent for a mont.
A flicker of complexity flashed through her golden eyes.
She didn’t know where to start... or rather, how to explain.
After all, since she woke up, this human’s face had appeared in her mind.
To say they knew each other... didn’t seem quite right!
Ultimately, she chose to avoid answering, shifting the topic instead.
Her gaze slightly diverted, landing on Sally beside Aster Grant, who was warily watching her.
"This girl, is she your Beastbond?"
Isabelle’s voice returned to its previous coolness, revealing little emotion.
Aster Grant followed her gaze to Sally, quickly weighing things in his mind.
He did not sense any malice from Isabelle’s gaze towards Sally, more of a curiosity.
And the current situation was greater than re individuals...
"Yes!"
Upon receiving Aster Grant’s confirmation, Isabelle nodded slightly.
Then, she seed to have rembered sothing.
Her slender hand casually waved towards the direction of the energy turbulence ford from the collapse of the core area.
In the next second, a miraculous scene unfolded.
Three light spheres, each emitting a different hue yet containing a vast Ti Law ripple, flew with precision to Isabelle’s palm, quietly hovering.
These were the three materials previously floating in the core area, later swept away by the energy storm!
"Her abilities are related to ti," Isabelle’s gaze swept over Sally, her tone calm:
"These three items should be of so use to her."
After speaking, she held the three treasures and presented them to Aster Grant.
Aster Grant’s gaze fell upon the three items in Isabelle’s fair palm.
When the system’s automatic information surfaced in his mind...
His pupils contracted abruptly!
[Stone of Cause and Effect]
[Ti Amber]
[Water of the River of History]
These were precisely the materials Sally needed to enhance her Talent, which he had previously deed impossible to obtain!
How... could this be?!
The imnse shock caused Aster Grant’s body to montarily stiffen.
Such a coincidence was simply astounding!
Just monts ago, he was troubled by the elusive clues to these materials, and in the next instant...
Here they were, unexpectedly presented before him!
And delivered by this mysterious Dragon Clan woman personally!
Isabelle saw Aster Grant fixedly staring at the materials without reaching out to take them, her slender brows furrowed slightly, a hint of confusion flickering in her eyes:
"Do you... not need them?"
Before she finished speaking, she made a gesture to withdraw her hand, seemingly prepared to discard these "useless" items again.
At her level, external enhancents were negligible.
Thus, these materials, to her, were no different from pebbles by the roadside.
"Wait!"
Aster Grant instinctively blurted out, "I want them!"
He feared being a second too late, that this spendthrift Dragoness would fling these materials vital to Sally’s future back into the turbulence.
He hurriedly stepped forward, almost urgently snatching the three treasures from Isabelle’s cool palm.
With the materials firmly grasped in hand, Aster Grant’s wildly racing heart gradually cald.
He raised his head, once more looking at Isabelle, with less initial wariness and more curiosity.
At this point, even soone as oblivious as he felt it.
This Dragon Clan woman not only lacked hostility, but was extending goodwill in a sowhat clumsy manner...
towards him?
But why?
Their acquaintance was unheard of, their power and status worlds apart, what was she after?
Could it be... because of the Dragon Emperor?
Aster Grant recalled the one who once aided him from afar.
Perhaps, the Dragon Emperor had given her so instructions?
For now, it seed the only barely plausible explanation.
Next, as Aster Grant accepted the materials, the atmosphere between them once again sank into silence.
Isabelle did not speak again; she simply stood quietly there, her gaze still resting on Aster Grant.
The intensity of her gaze made Aster Grant feel uncomfortable all over.
Thus, Aster Grant took a deep breath, deciding not to dwell on it any longer.
Regardless!
This Dragoness clearly bore no ill will, so he might as well enhance Sally’s Talent here.
And Isabelle observed Aster Grant’s actions without any intention to intervene, silently watching.
From her interaction with this human, she didn’t sense any significant bodily rejection.
This also implied...
At least, they weren’t enemies!
At that mont.
The petite cat-girl in front of Aster Grant showed a trace of guilt in her eyes.
This little cat-girl had been following him all along, and had even once sacrificed her all for him.
All of this, Aster Grant kept in mind.
"Sally, are you ready?"
Upon hearing Aster Grant’s words, Sally’s body trembled.
Each ti Aster Grant uttered this phrase, it signified...
He was about to help a Beastbond enhance its Talent.
Yet, Sally hadn’t expected that this ti, the subject of enhancent...
would be herself!
For a long ti, Sally had felt deeply inferior.
She always felt undeserving of Aster Grant, unworthy of being his Beastbond.
Though after becoming a mber of the Chronospirit Clan, this sense of inferiority lessened greatly.
However...
it hadn’t vanished.
At this mont, upon hearing Aster Grant’s inquiry, she found herself montarily stunned.
As Aster Grant had yet to receive Sally’s response, he slightly furrowed his brow.
It must be said, elevating a Beastbond’s Talent necessitated the Beastbond’s cooperation.
If Sally herself wasn’t willing to enhance her Talent, then even if he gathered the materials...
no amount of effort would have any Function!
Thus, he looked at the dazed Sally and spoke again:
"Sally, don’t you want to enhance your Talent, to advance alongside ?"
Upon hearing Aster Grant’s words, Sally snapped back to reality.
She imdiately shook her head.
"No, Master Aster Grant, I do! Of course, I do!"
"Sally’s greatest dream is to help Master Aster Grant!"
Sally spoke urgently, and in her haste, once again addressed Aster Grant as Master.
Seeing Sally’s eagerness, Aster Grant finally nodded.
As long as it wasn’t a refusal, then there was no problem.
He followed the thod suggested by the system, held his breath and focused, beginning to guide the vast Power of Ti Law contained within the three materials.
Three distinct yet homogenous forces of ti gradually fused under Aster Grant’s manipulation.
Eventually turning into a chaotic stream of light, slowly injected into Sally’s brow.
"Buzz——!!!"
At the mont the materials’ power and Sally’s essence united...
The entire remnant spaces of Ti Spirit Ruins seed frozen in ti!
All sounds, lights, and energy flows, plunged into absolute stagnation!
An indescribable, ancient supre aura descended without warning, enveloping Sally completely!
