"..."
Ronald looked at the magical illusion in front of him, his mind montarily blank.
He had been using a spell detection all along, so he knew there was indeed soone in the house. But the difference was, the person should still be deep in the room, focusing on their work.
Following past experiences.
Ronald instinctively treated the magic fluctuations in the room as defensive spells set by the other party.
But who would have known upon entering.
It was indeed a defensive spell, but it was an illusionary spell!
According to Ronald's understanding of mystical arts, this type of spell, as long as it has so level, connects to the caster's senses.
Right now, being seen by the illusory spell was almost equivalent to being directly seen by the owner of the room.
The next second, Ronald's spell also provided feedback.
The caster deep within the room, who was focusing on their work, indeed had a severe emotional change at this mont, then walked out with a noticeable magic fluctuation.
"Boss, are we taking action?!"
At this ti, Il behind Ronald excitedly spoke up.
Although she had just followed Ronald through the corridor, her keen senses still made her aware of the current situation.
So while asking Ronald, Il already lowered her stance to a defensive posture. Since Ronald was by her side, she wasn't planning to show her full form, instead, she was ready to take on a support position in combat.
As for Ronald himself…
Actually, at the sa ti, Il spoke, he had already spread the hellish black mist around the room. With the situation as it was, aside from quickly resolving the other party, Ronald didn't have many good options.
"From the starting point of the relationship between the earth and the sky, we will begin to construct our knowledge…"
Reciting the incantation while entering a combat state, the Sword of Saint Catherine was already in hand.
And deep in the room.
A middle-aged man, wearing a dark blue robe and whose appearance matched the magical illusion, ca out from behind.
"Where did you… hmm?"
"Is this a [Three Pure Realms] spell? Who are you?"
The caster who erged was clearly preparing to take action.
But upon seeing the hellish black mist already spread in the room, the hostility on his face instantly faded by more than half, even stopping the prepared attack spell forcibly.
"Young man, what is your relationship with Mr. Hops?"
"The [Three Pure Realms] school has actually accepted a new apprentice, why didn't I know?"
"..."
Faced with this barrage of questions, Ronald didn't continue to act for a mont.
The information from this middle-aged man was simply too much.
First, the term [Three Pure Realms], the first ti he heard it was from the mouth of an artificial deity, it should refer to the school that mastered the original text of the "Divine Cody" in the past.
Then there is Mr. Hops.
Without a doubt, this is the na of the Adler family ancestor.
But according to Ronald's experience, the "Divine Cody" wasn't the original text he obtained from the Adler family, could there be so unexpected connection between the two?
anwhile.
As Ronald was shocked by this information, the middle-aged man deep in the room had already co up. He didn't care at all about touching the hellish black mist on the ground, as if convinced Ronald wouldn't use this spell to harm him.
Seeing the other party like this, Ronald naturally wouldn't harm him.
And deep down, Ronald already had a hunch.
To know this magical city of Lacrimont existed even before the Dark Age, and everything reerging at this mont is a reflection of that distant past.
It just so happens that the Adler family ancestor, Mr. Hops, was an influential figure of an era.
Encountering soone acquainted with Hops Adler in such a magical city is definitely not a rare event!
Coming to this island…
Ronald may really be in for so extraordinary discoveries today.
And across from Ronald, the middle-aged man carefully looked at his appearance, especially after seeing Ronald's gray eyes up close, the man's face showed unexpected joy:
"Child, your blonde hair and gray eyes…"
"Could it be, you are a relative of Hops?"
"..."
"Don't co any closer, why are you standing so close!" At this mont, Il suddenly inserted herself between the two, and following the middle-aged man's questions, she turned her head to Ronald and asked, "Boss, are we still fighting?"
"..."
Ronald saw the desire in Il's eyes.
"Ah-woo!"
The next second, without a word, he reached out and pinched her head, pressing Il down to the ground to stop her from causing more trouble.
Things had reached this point, Ronald was eager to establish a good relationship with the person in front of him, how could he let Il continue to make trouble?
"Hahaha!"
Opposite the two, the sight of Ronald and Il made the middle-aged man laugh.
He didn't mind their impolite actions, taking it as the playful antics of close young juniors.
"You really are just like that Hops guy."
"I heard he recently was thinking of creating so heirloom-like maid to leave for future generations, and now you're playing around with a little girl."
"..."
In this era, wasn't the Costate project just a newly-established initiative?
Hearing the middle-aged man's thoughts, Ronald felt a sense of kinship, so he quickly introduced himself at this mont:
"Ronald, Ronald Adler. This one here is Il, currently considered my pet."
"Ronald? Il?" The middle-aged man noted these two nas.
But noticing Ronald's designation of Il, the researcher's curiosity was piqued, he imdiately focused on Il who was pressed down.
"This child is not human… nor a magical construct?" Next, this researcher from a bygone era demonstrated his exceptional abilities, not only seeing through Il's nature at a glance but discovering even more, "And her soul has also suffered damage?"
"Her enormous vitality is even more vigorous than the so-called Elk of Ohgan, how could she possibly have been born, it's incredible!"
Ronald honestly explained:
"Il is a product of an accident, originally from the original text, but possessing a completely independent ego, which is why she is the way she is today."
The middle-aged man imdiately misunderstood Ronald's words, believing it was a secret experint of the Adler family:
"I see, no wonder the Adler who inherited the [Three Pure Realms] school is so technically advanced…"
"By the way, since you ca to find , why didn't you say so in advance?"
The middle-aged man lanted briefly, then realized the abruptness of Ronald's presence here, turned back to his original point of interest:
"With my relationship with Hops, there was no need to create such a 'surprise', right?"
