What exactly made Frim sche to kill his master when he was still second-rank?
Saul was also wondering if he might one day accidentally violate so taboo and be hunted by Frim too.
"There's no misunderstanding." Frim's voice was very certain. "His na is on it."
Saul's head shot up, though he still saw no one before him. "On what?"
But this ti Frim refused to say. The source of this content ɪs novelFɪre
This Q&A was completely dominated by Frim. If the other party didn't want to reveal sothing, Saul had no way to provoke him into speaking.
Saul wouldn't think that just because Frim had asked for his help, he could now arrogantly command the other party.
He sighed lightly in his heart and finally asked, "Then how do you hope I can help you? Let state first - I don't think I can... heh... save the world."
"I know you possess a magical tool called the Dead Wizard's Diary."
Boom!
It was as if an explosion sounded in Saul's mind, yet he managed to conceal all excessive reactions with amazing willpower.
He quickly raised his head to an appropriate angle, appropriately quickened his speech, and showed appropriate surprise and solemnity in his eyes.
"I do indeed have this tool, but I'd like to know how you found out?"
Just after asking this question, a na rang out in Saul's mind.
The next second, Frim also spoke this na.
"Kist. He told . He said you could beco a third-rank wizard so quickly partly thanks to his help."
Saul thought rapidly, That bastard Kist doesn't know how many lies he's fabricated.
Then he reconsidered, If Kist is lying here, that's actually correct, since lies an Frim won't truly understand what abilities the Dead Wizard's Diary possesses.
Sure enough, Frim then told a story that didn't quite match reality but contained so truth.
"...He said the Dead Wizard's Diary was given to you by him. He helped you advance, providing certain resources at appropriate tis, with the price being that you bear the Dead Wizard's Diary's curse for him. I investigated afterward - your lives indeed frequently intersected. Though the occasions seed few, for a hidden fourth-rank and a wizard apprentice, it was still too frequent."
Saul quickly caught the keyword "curse" in the other's words.
Therefore, though his voice carried wariness, it remained relatively stable, "Do you want the Dead Wizard's Diary?"
"Of course. Since it can create a wizard with extrely high immunity to black tides, it should also have thods against the Abyssal Eye. Even if it can't completely eradicate the Abyssal Eye, it's worth trying."
Saul raised his left hand, and a dark red leather-bound hardcover book appeared in his palm. However, it wasn't open, remaining in a closed state.
"This is that diary." Saul directly extended his left hand while slightly raising his wrist. "Kist once said I had completely beco the diary's master. You can try to see if you can take it away."
As soon as he finished speaking, Saul felt a force sweep across his palm, but the diary remained floating quietly, not taken by anyone.
Saul wasn't surprised - after all, the diary hadn't issued a warning.
"Seems I can't take it." Frim's voice also showed no surprise.
The mont Saul produced the Dead Wizard's Diary, he knew his first plan wouldn't work.
Before Frim could propose other ideas, Saul quickly spoke, "Chief Frim, have you heard of causality?"
Frim fell silent. Even Byron was hearing Saul ntion this for the first ti. For a mont, he couldn't think of anything else and hurriedly stared at Saul and the hardcover book in his hand.
"The Dead Wizard's Diary has a characteristic almost no one knows about." Saul shared his speculations and information obtained from Kist. "People who have karmic connections with the diary's master cannot obtain the diary. Chief Frim, if you had suddenly struck to kill before knowing about or the Dead Wizard's Diary, you might have had a chance to get the diary. Of course, the greater possibility is that the diary would disappear from then on, until soone completely unrelated to appeared and it fell into their hands."
"So when Kist gave you the diary?"
"Yes, he didn't even know who I was."
Frim was also speechless. "Heh, Kist."
Saul lowered his eyes. This matter contained truth and falsehood, but the part about the Dead Wizard's Diary was basically correct.
So Sid, who had once wanted to steal his diary, didn't know that trying to use other unknowing people to kill Saul was fundantally impossible.
Even Sid's grandfather could never obtain the diary.
They could only create aningless slaughter.
What followed was an even longer silence. Frim seed to be considering what the probability would be of obtaining the diary if he found soone with no connection to Saul to kill him.
But after brief consideration, Frim realized he couldn't find such a person at all.
During Frim's silence, Byron slowly walked to Saul's side, vigilantly watching their surroundings.
He thought Tribunal Chief Frim should be a rational person, but he also feared the other might suddenly have a whim (brain malfunction) and want to try.
Compared to Byron's wariness, Saul was more relaxed.
He was clear that even if Frim really had a sudden lapse in judgnt and wanted to try, it wouldn't be now.
Frim currently has more important matters. He would definitely first take advantage of the opportunity when his master was lured to Kema and he himself was brought here to eliminate Gorsa first!
Yes, Saul was too clear about why Frim had forcibly brought him here again.
And Frim should also be aware that Saul knew, but he still did this, obviously determined to succeed this ti.
Gorsa's failed advancent was a very rare opportunity for Frim. Even if his purpose was exposed, he had to exploit the ti difference.
Saul looked down at his toes.
But then again, who wasn't?
"I understand. Seems you've completely mastered this unique magical tool. I won't waste effort trying to change its master. Who could be better at using it than you now?" Frim made his decision. At least for now, Saul was still the best collaboration choice.
Even if he killed the other's master, the two wouldn't necessarily beco mortal enemies.
After all, they were both wizards - knowledge and interests ca first.
"Next, I'll give you so processed anchor points. You'll experint with them first. If you can solve their pollution, I'll give you more primitive black tide anchor points. If you can solve even those... I can give you the position of Tribunal Chief!"
