Mystic Overlord: Reading Gives Strength Chapter 354 - 353 Letter

The observation records of "astral bodies" are quite complex.

Besides Ronald, who is the main focus of the observations and accounts for nearly one-fifth of the intelligence collected, many other events taking place in Springs are also recorded.

Among them, Ronald’s experiences during the "witch turmoil," as well as the "Dawn Spell Society’s canonical crisis," are all noted.

Upon looking through the entries carefully,

Ronald couldn’t help but mutter softly,

"It’s really collected quite detailed..."

"Hmm?"

Just as he was about to continue browsing through this observation record, Ronald sensed hurried footsteps approaching the edge of the detection range of the "Fury" power.

He paid close attention to the emotional fluctuations of the two people at this ti.

As expected, both were in an excited mood, eager to verify sothing!

—Were they investigators from the investigation bureau?

—Or were they from the "Nine Commandnts secret society"?

"..."

Pondering the current situation in his mind, Ronald took two steps to reach the hidden compartnt found by the black fog.

In fact, regardless of the identities of the two approaching people, Ronald didn’t want to engage in combat at this ti and draw attention.

So he decided to be straightforward.

It would be best to leave with his spoils of war.

The people detected by the "Fury" power were still at a distance, and Ronald was confident he could disappear from here without them noticing.

Snap—

A snap of his fingers sounded lightly.

Ronald punched the wall in front of him.

Amidst the white light of "Guardian Angel" rising and fending off the hidden compartnt’s spell attack, Ronald successfully smashed open a crate embedded in the wall and then broke the second hidden compartnt in the sa manner, taking its contents with him as he jumped out the window and back the way he ca.

Leaving Clary Street where the "astral body" dwelling was located.

Ronald first took a few laps around the Riverside district before heading towards the apartnt he rented.

At this ti, using the conspicuous Icarus Wings was obviously not an option.

As for other ans of mobility...

The newly-acquired "Astronomy Master" endowed Ronald with quite impressive movent capabilities.

Unfortunately, this original work, similar to the "Divine Cody," had very distinct spell conditions that needed to be t before casting its spells, naly providing the appropriate casting dium.

—teorites.

Although it did not require the size of the teorite, nor did it demand any trials to be passed,

Every spell in the "Astronomy Master" demanded a teorite as a dium to exercise the right to use the spell.

And this dium could not be reused.

For instance, if the first spell was activated with an iron teorite, then the second spell could only be unlocked with another type of teorite, such as a stony teorite.

If Ronald were still on Earth,

The common teorite could be easily acquired through the all-purpose online shopping, unlocking a significant number of spells in one go.

Unfortunately, this is a parallel world.

Although the civilization on this planet has already gained a basic understanding of astronomy, conveniently and quickly obtaining a "star" might still be rather difficult.

At present, the most probable place to find teorites seed to be in the Riverside district where Ronald resided.

In more renowned university laboratories,

He might have the chance to obtain teorites needed to unlock spells.

Pondering all this on the way, by the ti Ronald approached the vicinity of his apartnt, the eastern sky of Springs was also beginning to brighten.

Buying breakfast on the side of the road, Ronald finally returned.

"Mr. Ronald, are you only just coming back now?"

Just as he entered, the old apartnt guard, who had been up all night, saw Ronald and waved a greeting to the resident,

"I’m about to finish my shift, is there anything I can help with?"

Ronald flashed a smile at the old man.

Waving the breakfast he was carrying, he headed straight for the staircase,

"I just went out to buy so breakfast."

"There’s no need for any trouble."

"..."

After bidding farewell to the sheepish old guard, Ronald locked his room door once back inside.

While taking out his breakfast for today, he laid all the items he had collected on the office desk.

——The observation records he had already glanced through.

——A not-too-thick stack of letters.

——A collection of files organized into a volu, resembling research reports.

It was ti to read carefully.

Alone at ho without any disturbances, Ronald read the materials in front of him at his preferred pace.

The first thing was the observation records.

These records, personally collected by "Starbody," contained a lot of information that was usually hard to co by.

For example, the "White Bird Comrcial Alliance."

This was a trade association Ronald had beco acquainted with back in Greenwich.

Though it also had considerable industries in Springs, the three organizations behind this trade association, naly the "Twelve Witches" and the "Dawn Spell Society," were systematically withdrawing their casters stationed in this city.

Only the "Rose Secret Garden," which was responsible for the operation of the shops,

Still maintained a stable staff presence.

Beyond this, a great many secret organizations had begun sending people to Springs one after another.

So ca to attend the grand "Harvest Day Festival" the Queen was preparing for this year, while others harbored ulterior motives, seemingly planning to obtain so sort of benefit from an imminent massive change.

But regardless,

As the ruler of the nation and the absolute powerful holder of mysterious side tos,

Queen Dantlian of Gred would make so kind of change at this year’s "Harvest Day Festival," and it would be a massive transformation that would simultaneously affect both the mysterious side and the ordinary world!

Even the increased activity of the "Nine Rings Conclave" in this country

Was largely for this reason.

"A massive change..."

Peer at the sense of crisis revealed within the letters and lines of the records.

Ronald listed various possibilities in his mind, setting aside the observation records and then drawing out the neatly stacked letters beside him.

There were only five letters hidden in the secret compartnt.

And from their addresses, they were all sent to Springs from different places, including one piece of overseas correspondence.

Considering "Starbody’s" emphasis on these letters,

They were probably orders from the "Nine Rings Conclave" or sothing similar.

Thus, Ronald opened the first letter.

"My dear Sanchez:

It has been a year since we last t.

Our child is growing up very healthily and has learned to call ’Dad’. I really wish you could co back and see our adorable Lila. Of course, you don’t need to worry about our lives, with the salary you continuously send back, the life of us mother and daughter is considered quite affluent in the city.

..."

This is a family letter...

It was sowhat different from what Ronald had expected.

Placed at the very top of the stack was actually a family letter received by "Starbody," or rather, Sanchez.

Storing the letter from family in a spell-protected secret compartnt

Was also a common human sentint.

Slightly sighing, Ronald took the second letter and continued to open it.

"Ah——"

"Let’s move on to the next one..."
