The owner of Peel City, Geryon Ashburn, was a magician with a transcendent status even in the Clock Tower.
What was the most important thing for a magician? The quality of the magic circuit? The aptitude for magic? Or the unique research results?
No, none of them.
These things might be important, but for a magician, the most important thing was the [Magic Seal] owned by a family.
The so-called [Magic Seal], in a word, was the fixed mystery. It was the product of the magician's research results after he spent a lifetime to engrave them. It was the fundamental reason why magicians could form families, and it was also the biggest and most important asset and inheritance of the entire family.
Most magicians had the goal of 'reaching the Vortex of Origin', but this goal was too ambitious. A magician might not be able to achieve this goal even if he devoted his whole life to it.
In view of this, magicians would engrave their own research results — the mystery they obtained — into a [Magic Seal]. Then, they would pass it on to their children and nephews so that they could continue on their unfinished path. They would exhaust the power of generation after generation to finally reach the Vortex of Origin.
For a magician, the magic circuit only represented his own aptitude in magic, but the Magic Seal symbolized the hope of everyone in a family, including the magician who inherited the Magic Seal.
In view of this, in fact, the Magic Seal was the most important inheritance and inheritance of a magician's family. It was also the most important thing for a magician.
Once the Magic Seal of a family was destroyed, it was equivalent to the hope of all the magicians in the family being destroyed. In the blink of an eye, the loyalty of the family connected by the Magic Seal would vanish and eventually lead to the collapse of the family.
For a magician, even if they lost their life, they would at least ensure that the Magic Seal was intact and passed on to the next generation so that the next generation could inherit their unfinished work.
However, things in this world were always not as one wished.
Perhaps it was because of disputes over inheritance, or because the current family head died unexpectedly, or because the Magic Seal was stolen … It was not uncommon for magicians to have the Magic Seal destroyed.
And those who could repair the Magic Seal would naturally have a transcendent status among magicians.
The Lord of Peel City, Geryon Ashburn, was a rare [Repairman] who could repair the Magic Seal.
When Geryon was still alive, magicians from families with damaged Magic Seals would often come here and ask him to repair the Magic Seal.
Geryon, on the other hand, had just died last month.
The cause of his death was unknown, but he left behind a very precious inheritance.
The magicians believed that the inheritance might include the secret method to repair the Magic Seal. In view of this fact, this castle was like the blood in the deep sea, attracting many sharks with ulterior motives.
As long as they could obtain the secret method, they could also become a new [Repairman]. Not only would their status in the Clock tower, but it would also have extraordinary significance in repairing the family's Magic Seal.
Because of this, all the magicians who received the invitation naturally came to this place.
A's apprentice and Master.
Brother and Sister.
A Mercenary.
A Repairman from the Far East religion, [Repairman].
An old-school magician who was at least ten years old.
And a young lady from a famous Finnish family.
And a master of the inheritance ceremony from the [Law Department] of the Clock Tower.
These were all the guests who came to the Peel City today.
…
"Move everything to the room and leave Kulang alone. Everyone else can go back."
A melodious voice of a young girl entered Liu Xia's ears from outside the door. He silently held his breath and fully activated the [Aura Concealment] ability.
"Really, the servants in this Peel City are so stingy. They only allow one servant …"
The girl's elegant grumbling came from outside the door. At the same time, there were some heavy footsteps coming and going in the room. There were all kinds of things of different weights. According to the girl's words, it should be her luggage from her hometown.
By the way, this young girl was the young lady of a famous Finnish family. She seemed to be the young master of the family. She should have a lot of power, so she traveled very extravagantly. However, she wasn't from a famous family in the Clock Tower, so it didn't mean much to Ryuga.
"Please be patient, young lady."
"If you want to obtain Geryon's inheritance, you can only follow his rules. You can only bring one servant with you. There's nothing you can do about it."
"Of course, I know that."
The young girl seemed a little confused. "But why did Geryon use [Angels] as a method to choose the inheritor of the inheritance? And there are so many [Angels] in the city. "
While the young girl was puzzled, the servants she brought took out the items from the suitcase and placed them around the room.
However, no one opened the closet. The servants didn't dare to touch the young lady's clothes. Because she was going to stay here for a while, the young girl also brought a lot of underwear. Those things could only be arranged by the young girl herself.
"Kulang, you go out first. I want to change my clothes first."
After the servants left, the young girl said to her first servant. If there was no accident, this man named 'Kulang' was the servant the young girl planned to leave in the city.
"Yes, young lady. If there's anything, please tell me. "
The man named 'Kulang' also left the room, leaving the young lady alone in the room.
Then, there was a rustling sound from outside the closet. There was also the sound of cloth rubbing against delicate skin. It seemed like the young lady was already changing her clothes.
Ryuga slightly arched her body.
The muscles in her body moved, and she was ready to attack at any time.
After a while, light footsteps were heard, and it was getting closer and closer to the closet. The other party should want to put her clothes in the closet.
"Squeak!"
The door of the wardrobe was opened and the creaking sound of the wooden wardrobe could be heard.
The next moment, before the young girl could react, a hand suddenly reached out from the closet and accurately grabbed her throat. Her scream was stuck in her throat, and she couldn't make a sound.
After a hurried 'bang', the young girl's figure was forcefully pulled into the closet, and the closet door was quickly closed.
The room soon became empty.
