Mystic Overlord: Reading Gives Strength Chapter 493 - 490: Consider it

Heloise herself was at the crux of the matter.

The more that was said, the more information would be revealed.

Faced with such a situation, Ronald directly interrupted the conversation and took the initiative,

"Bapulor... are you on good terms with Raleye?"

The expression of the cult Magician remained unchanged, treating the matter as if it were completely normal,

"So-so, I’ve cooperated with him a few tis before."

"Also, for this operation, I invited Raleye to take charge of a part of it; his strength is quite impressive. Ronald, you’ve seen it for yourself, haven’t you?"

"..."

This cult Magician’s mind certainly had its issues.

Ronald fell silent for a few seconds before finally asking,

"Raleye is from Entrode, are you sure that won’t be a problem?"

Bapulor suddenly laughed,

"Hahaha—"

"Entrode’s people are better!"

"If the ’Nine Commandnts’ eting doesn’t ss with Dantrian, we partners can imdiately stir up trouble, and then we won’t have to worry about anyone shirking their work."

"..."

"Alright, alright, I get it."

Faced with Bapulor’s completely unguarded response, Ronald was montarily at a loss for words.

The people he had dealt with in the past generally didn’t have such issues.

Now, facing this unconventional cult Magician, he truly wasn’t accustod to conversing with him. Ronald always felt that whenever he spoke, Bapulor would veer the conversation off-topic.

As Ronald was pondering over this, Bapulor suddenly stood up from his chair and began to gather the water purifier packaging he had laid out on the table,

"Ah, why is soone coming again?"

"I just set up a guard Spell outside, and it’s been triggered!"

"Ronald, you sure do have many friends in the mystical side, don’t you?"

"The main changes are just these, I want to tweak the details according to the specific situation at that ti. Also, if you trigger the envelope I left behind with this frequency of Magic Fluctuation, it can turn into a pretty powerful bomb. The effect is quite good."

"Lastly, I hope you and Miss Heloise have a pleasant autumn."

After a string of rapidly spoken words, the cult Magician quickly gathered his things. He removed the soundproof Spell he had just set up and walked out the door.

Within the span of two breaths,

Bapulor’s knocking sounded at the next-door witch apprentice’s door.

Knock Knock Knock—

"Miss, would you like to try our company’s scientifically invented water purifier?"

"The city’s tap water system hasn’t been great recently, people in the north of the city have even contracted dysentery, why not give it a try? Your neighbor, the gentleman, has already bought one, definitely worth it!"

"Mr. Ronald bought one too?"

"Then... I’ll have a look..."

Listening to the sounds coming from next door, Ronald felt guilty.

He had just casually bought the sa water purifier, and now Bapulor had incorporated that into his sales pitch. This cult Magician definitely knew about the relationship between the witch and Ronald, which was precisely why he was doing this.

Shaking his head, Ronald walked to the staircase and leaned out to look downstairs.

Just from that glance, he saw the ’friend’ Bapulor had ntioned, a sowhat surprising visitor.

The person detected outside by Bapulor’s Spell.

"It was none other than Her Royal Highness, Princess Claudia of the Grid Empire!"

"The witch next door and her apprentice wouldn’t have stirred this princess for capturing Bapulor, the heretic magician, nor would it just be Princess Claudia who ca for such a matter."

"In that case, the only possible reason for Her Royal Highness to be here."

"Must be Ronald himself."

"Faced with an unexpected guest, Ronald naturally greeted her enthusiastically:"

"Claudia, why have you co today?"

"Descending the spiral staircase, Ronald took a mont to observe her attire for the day. Claudia was wearing the sa outfit she had worn when they first t, her youthful vitality completely spilling forth."

"Thinking about the current ti."

"It felt as if she was on her way to school and had decided to visit him en route, ready for them to leave together."

"And when faced with Ronald’s greeting."

"Claudia smiled slightly, then raised her hand towards the third-floor apartnt:"

"I need to talk to you about sothing, but let’s go upstairs."

"Of course, if there could be a nice breakfast too, that would be even better."

"..."

"Ronald followed Claudia back to the room."

"Hei Luo Yi, who should have been in the living room, had already disappeared."

"Listening to the water purifier’s sales pitch from next door, Claudia comfortably sat on the sofa and then imdiately noticed sothing on the table."

"Water purifier..."

"The princess’s expression was sowhat subtle."

"She looked at Ronald in front of her, then took the initiative to say:"

"The tap water in the north part of the city was actually contaminated by toxic substances left from a battle, and the investigator bureau handled it quickly after discovering it."

"This thing, it’s actually not very useful."

"Ronald moved to the fireplace to heat up water for tea, then explained with a smile:"

"I could probably guess the real situation."

"But this weather is really hot, and that salesperson was overly enthusiastic. Stubborn as I am, I ended up buying this thing."

"Listening to Ronald’s explanation, Claudia took the hot tea from his hands."

"She carefully sipped and replied with a ’thank you,’ before continuing:"

"I actually ca here today to talk to you about the follow-up issues from the conference day. In the follow-up work, our investigators found two original texts on the mountain and the enemy, and I’ve brought the photos with ."

"Ronald looked at the photos Claudia had taken out."

"He imdiately recognized the scenes depicted."

"Firstly, it was a familiar scene from the ’Book Research Society’."

"The two recovered original texts were naturally sent to Grid’s specialized research facility."

"And then there were the true identities of these two original texts."

"One of them was naturally the ’Wealth of Nations’ used by Barbara, confiscated by the investigator bureau after being stolen by Demon Ra. The other one, however, was a manuscript with the title ’Solomon’s Little Key’ on the cover."

"’Wealth of Nations’ and ’Solomon’s Little Key’."

"These originals owned by the ’Nine Commandnts Society’ are truly formidable..."

"As Ronald reflected on the photos, Claudia leaned closer to lessen the distance between them and whispered in a voice only the two could hear:"

"There are quite a few disagreents in the ’Book Research Society’ about their research."

"Ronald, you have that spell that allows one to bypass the trials of the originals, don’t you? Maybe you should consider joining?"
