This guy, is he planning to make a move here?
Seeing the people from the Dawn Spell Society burning with anger, even showing signs of wanting to act.
Ronald only felt the strangeness of reality.
One must know, this steamship belongs to the Greed fleet!
If these casters originally intended to retaliate against him, it was already considered extrely dangerous. But now, directly making a move on Greed's ship, even in front of Princess Claudia herself...
To be honest, this behavior is far too outrageous.
Outrageous to the point of being indescribable.
From both a practical and political influence perspective, this is an unthinkable exaggeration.
Yet at this mont, Ronald's body has activated the spell of emotional perception.
So he very clearly feels that the emotions of this Dawn Spell Society caster have indeed reached an extre state, and even the witch from the Twelve Witches Society is not much different.
Now, just a slight external force could catalyze them.
These casters would absolutely start a direct fight in the next second, ignoring all usual concerns!
"..."
"Both of you, please calm your emotions!"
At this mont, Claudia spoke up.
Although the emotions of the two casters were about to lose control, this princess certainly wouldn't allow such a scene to unfold before her, so she tily cut into the confrontation between the two:
"The current world is indeed vastly different from the past, and we casters are still human. In such dramatic changes in environnt, naturally, we may not adapt well. But it is precisely in such situations that we must hold onto our true selves, not let impulse and tension control our actions."
Claudia's words were indeed quite insightful.
After all, this isn't Greed, so she didn't rely on her identity to order the two to stop arguing. Instead, she first threw the root of the problem to the external factor of world change, and then advised gently.
In this way—
Success would naturally be good, showing Claudia's grasp of the situation.
And even if it failed, the excuse for escalating the conflict wouldn't involve Greed, making it a well-considered way of persuasion.
"..."
The actual result was that Claudia's intervention was quite effective.
After the princess spoke, the emotions of the two casters, which were gradually intensifying, seed to be splashed with cold water, their expressions quickly cooling from the brink of extre.
"Your Highness, please forgive us!"
"Putting the school dispute here really made everyone laugh—"
"..."
Reason returned to them, and the two casters imdiately apologized to Claudia, also taking care to show their stance to others around.
They all realized their loss of composure in front of Claudia, and this was a person they absolutely must not offend.
"..."
While all this was happening, Ronald raised his eyebrows slightly.
He felt extrely strange.
If these two casters temporarily shelved their differences under Claudia's diation, he could understand completely. But through the spell of emotional perception, he was quite sure they had abandoned the thought of conflict, completely lacking the previous signs of anger.
Even more exaggerated, on the Dawn Spell Society caster, Ronald couldn't even detect malice towards himself.
After the conflict subsided, even the intention of revenge against him was abandoned?
This is completely unreasonable!
Faced with such a situation, Ronald couldn't help but think of the spell in the Divine Cody - Purgatory — Wrath's Original Sin.
That is a power capable of influencing others' emotions unnoticed and leading them to extres.
And how similar Ronald's situation now is!
As the thought ca, Ronald's reasoning felt more valid, and accompanying guesses quickly erged.
Could it be that soone secretly interfered with the two schools' casters, attempting to ignite a fierce conflict between them?
Though small, Capon is a city.
Eirene may not compare to Greed, but it's also a country.
And these two schools hold significant positions across the nation.
Soone might be scheming a conspiracy, trying to pit the Dawn Spell Society against the Twelve Witches Society, then profiting from the chaos.
"..."
The nightti rain was growing heavier.
Watching the visiting fleet head towards the deck, Ronald, relieved from the inexplicable changes, slowly walked back to the deck edge and sat in his lounge chair.
Simultaneously, the emotional detection spell began to spread around.
Ronald wanted to find out if soone was behind the scenes, sparking this series of events.
Though Ronald himself had no ti to engage in it.
Before officially leaving, he didn't mind giving the two schools a hint about this issue. After all, Ronald himself was inexplicably caught in this dispute, and discontent was inevitable.
"..."
Just like that, Ronald expanded the perception to search for the problem's root throughout the city.
But the results were fruitless.
In the rainy night, as ti passed into the evening, even the port workers in the city were fewer outside.
Among the limited few pedestrians and citizens, Ronald couldn't find many casters, let alone those containing clear malice towards the two schools.
This feeling.
As if all of Ronald's assumptions were in vain.
The mbers of the Dawn Spell Society and the Twelve Witches Society truly acted out of their own anger for all previous actions.
"Could this really be possible..."
Ronald murmured with a troubled tone.
Beside him, Costate heard his perplexity and imdiately asked:
"Sir, what are you puzzled by?"
At this mont, with no outsiders on the deck, Ronald directly explained to Costate:
"I suspect soone is assassinating the Twelve Witches Society and the Dawn Spell Society. After all, the emotions of their people were too extre before, quite abnormal. But now, after searching around, I haven't found any signs of activity nearby."
Costate pondered for a few seconds and promptly offered his thought:
"Sir, is it possible that it's a spell that, once used, takes effect long term? The assassin himself might not be nearby."
Ronald shook his head:
"To target two large schools, one cannot be careless. Even if it's indeed the type of spell you ntioned, soone should be monitoring nearby, or else major trouble could arise if things turn unexpected."
"..."
While Ronald was discussing these issues with Costate.
Just then, Il suddenly perked up, then crossed his arms displaying a subtle smile:
"Boss, pardon the interruption."
"I feel... sothing else might be coming?"
