Chapter 205: A Small Advice
Charles opened his amber eyes in his room and took out the Books of Secrets and 'Spirit Hex' curse card.
Then, he cast [Cryptic Analysis] skill on the curse card and soon narrowed his eyes.
'What are you doing, lad?' The Holem's Crown couldn't help but ask when it noticed his strange actions.
'I'm trying to get more information about the card to do a divination.' Charles replied with a frown.
On the other hand, the Holem's Crown let out a chuckle and spoke.
'You forgot one thing. This constellation book works based on the user's understanding of Future Ti.'
Upon hearing the artifact's words, a look of realization dawn on Charles's face.
'You an I can do divination without much information about this card?' He asked in surprise.
'No no. You are not thinking in the right way. Why do you want to search for more information about this curse card? It's to find more about the one who creates it, right?' The Holem's Crown asked.
anwhile, Charles wore a confused look and nodded.
'You grasped the secrets of 'Future' Ti after becoming a Rank-4 Shape-Shifter, not the 'Past' Ti, lad. If you want to learn about the origin, you need to look backward. Not the front.' The Holem's Crown said in a serious tone.
At that mont, Charles got dumbfounded for a mont and soon face-pald.
'Right. So, it's basically impossible to find more clues-.' He abruptly paused for a mont and soon widened his eyes.
'Mr. Runeth, you can find so clues, right?'
'We just now used the 'Past' illusion to trick everyone. You need to wait for the one-month cool down to end. Moreover, it's not an urgent thing, right? Focus on increasing your strength.' The Holem's Crown ended the conversation.
anwhile, Charles let out a deep sigh and nodded his head.
Then, he went to the shower, took a long bath, and walked out in a casual dress.
After that, he took the black cane, went downstairs, and noticed that a few well-dressed n in robes and formal dresses sat on the sofa and seed to be in the middle of questioning his disciples.
anwhile, Rhea wore a pensive look and answered with an anxious expression on her face.
While walking on the bifurcated stairs, Charles overheard a few sentences and easily figured out that they were warning Rhea and others for killing the assassins without official permission from Royal Family and Iron Tower!
"This kingdom really needs a large-scale purge." An old man's voice suddenly echoed in the reception hall!
The one who spoke the sentence was not Charles but the Holem's Crown!
It perfectly mimicked his old voice and spoke out loud, causing the whole group of nobles and mages to stiffen up!
Charles slowly walked down on the red-carpeted steps and soon reached the reception hall.
He then glanced at the mages and Nobles and spoke in a cold tone.
"If I see soone bullying my disciples again, I will not hesitate to kill all the Ruler Caste mbers in this city. Got it?"
The mages and Nobles' faces went pale as a white sheet!
In truth, they ca here to probe if they could get so clues about the mastermind behind the assassination.
But when they noticed that Rhea and the other kids were in charge of official matters, they began to show their arrogant attitude and even tried to bla Rhea and others!
Unfortunately, they stepped not on a dog's tail but a dragon's tail!
"If you are that much scared of , why you guys even bother coming here and started showing your arrogance? Scram, idiots."
Without minding their terrified looks, he spoke coldly, went near the empty sofa, and sat on it.
At that mont, the Nobles and Mages already stood up from their seats and started backing away.
anwhile, Charles's gaze swept past Rhea's sofa and soon landed on Jessie, Noel, and Titus, who stood behind her.
A frown appeared on his face.
"Why are you guys standing behind her like servants? Even if she becos a Queen, you must never beco her subordinate. The sa goes for you, lass. You should never look at them as your subordinates. All of you are my disciples and should give equal respect to each other. If you do sothing like this, it's like shaming my dignity." He spoke in a cold tone.
anwhile, Rhea and others went stiff for a mont and soon nodded their heads.
"Good." Charles nodded his head, turned his gaze towards Jessie, and signaled her to co near.
'Hmm? Her eye color has changed. Is it due to the Blood Manipulation Class? Will it push her to walk on the path of evil?' He felt worried a little.
He had long faced the temptation of wickedness and knew it might one day take root in her heart!
'One's inner emotions are really hard to predict and these emotions seed to have so connection with so of these mysterious magic classes. She already tasted the first blood… I hope she won't walk on the sa path as my past self.'
On the other hand, Jessie wore a confused look and soon appeared in front of him.
"How many Sunrise potions did you buy during these past six months?" He asked a strange question.
From his understanding of Jessie, he knew that she must have brought all kinds of low-level potions for four of them.
As he had expected, she took out a total of 34 potion vials with different colors from her void pouch and placed them on the nearby empty sofa.
'All of them are Sunrise potions… Did she buy them from the auction in a bulk?' He got surprised a little.
Unlike the Midday potions, although Dawn potions and Sunrise potions were expensive, it wasn't hard to buy.
Rank-2 and Rank-3 Alchemists were the ones who brew these potions, and the effect could only work on Rank-2. So, most noble families buy them in bulk amounts.
'Hmm, her body strength hasn't reached Expert Level… But I don't think it will be a problem for her now. Next is her 'Wisdom' power… Wait… 17 points? How did she increase it in a short amount of ti? Did the information learning personal mission really helping her?' He couldn't help but praise her diligence.
'Her new Blood Manipulation Class also seems to have sohow increased her wisdom.'
Charles nodded his head in understanding and ordered.
"Drink the soul-related Sunrise Potions."
"Teacher?" A startled expression appeared on Jessie's face.
"Drink it." He said again.
Nodding her head, Jessie picked up a purple bottle from the empty sofa and started drinking it.
At that mont, Charles used [Cryptic Analysis] and noticed the change in her status.
'17.5 … 18… 18.2… 18.6!'
As she gulped the whole potion, Jessie closed her scarlet eyes and frowned.
"I see a large space in my head, Teacher-" She paused for a mont and soon opened her eyes wide.
"I can sense my other consciousness… It's sowhere in the dark space!" A hint of excitent appeared on her face.
On the other hand, Charles nodded his head in understanding and ordered.
"Drink other potions too."
Unlike before, Jessie didn't show a confused look, took out another vial, and drank it.
By the ti she drank the fourth potion, Charles had noticed that she already reached a bottleneck!
The wisdom power stopped rising after reaching 19.9 points!
He hurriedly stopped her, took out two crescent-shaped earrings from his spatial ring, and gave it to her.
"Whenever you feel an abnormal thirst for blood, go to Moon Church and pray for God Anos's help. These earrings are actually ritual materials for contacting the Moon God. I heard that he owns the domain of 'Blood' and might show his grace upon you." He suddenly paused for a mont and soon added.
"But if you didn't receive his help, co and look for ."
"Yes, Teacher." A reverence look appeared on Jessie's face.
anwhile, Charles nodded his head and turned his gaze towards Titus.
