Angelo didn't play a significant role in the story, but that didn't mean he didn't leave any clues behind.
"If the rumors are true, then Angelo returned to the Manbadger Family at least twice," Ness said. "When Lady Silver came back from the dead, and during her funeral, Angelo must have come back."
"I think Angelo was the one who cured Lady Silver's paralysis when she was still Lady Silver."
Iron Granny nodded in agreement. "Rumors about Lady Manbadger's sudden death spread like wildfire, but the viscount didn't try to control the public opinion. Maybe he didn't dare to do so because he wanted to give an explanation to someone he couldn't afford to offend."
The person the viscount couldn't afford to offend was none other than the supernatural Angelo.
According to this logic, regardless of whether the Silver Madam was paralyzed or not, the death of the Viscount's wife was probably related to Angelo.
"You have a point. It's just a guess anyway. Let's assume Angelo came back three times."
"The first time, Lady Silver was paralyzed, and Angelo came back two months later."
"The second time, Lady Silver died of illness. I think she was faking her death. If she was really dead, even a wizard couldn't save her. Let's forget about the details and get back to the main topic. Angelo came back two days later and saved Lady Silver. "
"The third time, Lady Silver died, and Angelo showed up at her funeral two days later as well."
"From Angelo's three returns, we can actually see a lot of things."
For example, each time something happened to Lady Silver, Angelo sensed it immediately, which meant he had a way to find out about Lady Silver's condition.
However, it was hard to find out how he did it. Let's put it aside for now.
"Also, we can learn something from the time Angelo returned to the Manbadger Family after Lady Silver's accident."
Angelo took two months to return the first time, while the other two times only took two days. If Angelo returned to the Felon Continent by ship, two months would be normal, or even faster. As for the arrival of two days, there was a lot to be said about it.
Either Angelo was very close to the Silver Madam and could reach her within two days.
Or Angelo had already become a wizard and could use a plane passageway to return.
Most people were still leaning towards the first one. According to the timeline, Angelo was at most 40 years old. A 40 year old formal wizard was already considered a genius, so he shouldn't be so unknown in the southern wizard world.
Also, if Angelo was already a formal wizard, he wouldn't need to wait two days to get to where the Silver Madam was. He could open a plane passageway and get there in minutes.
Therefore, they speculated that Angelo's real location was at least where he was when Madam Silver died three years ago. He should be within the range of two days.
Angelo was still a teenager thirty years ago, so he shouldn't be that powerful. Since he was able to cure Lady Silver's paralysis, he should be around the level of a late-stage Level-1 Apprentice. At that time, Lady Silver, Lady Silver ''s's's's. "
"Fifteen years," Lady's't't't't ''s a level-3 apprentice''t '' ''s''s say,'t't ''t. Then his current position is that he will reach the Feilong Continent within two days.
"Now we only need to find out where the Feilong continent can be reached in two months by boat and in two days by vehicle."
Of course, this was only the most ideal scenario that Ness came up with. There were bound to be many variables in between, but for now, they did not need to pinpoint Angelo's exact location. All they needed to do was to circle a general area.
With that, Angor used his illusion nodes to create an illusion of a sea map in front of everyone.
With the Night Lily Kingdom of the Felon Continent as the center, the sea map began to extend 360 degrees outwards. Soon, a large-scale miniature sea map appeared before everyone's eyes.
This included the Felon Continent, the Magic Eaves Promenade, the Land of Revelation, the Ferran Continent, and islands of various sizes. The sea region included a portion of the Whalebone Sea, the Long Beach Sea, and the Devil Sea.
Using the fastest cargo ship of the White Clam Shipping Company as the benchmark, he estimated that the ship could reach the destination in two months.
Now, he could use the map in the illusion to determine Angelo's range of activities.
Everyone immediately locked onto the Land of Revelation because the underground cavern was in the Central Empire of the Land of Revelation.
"Take a ship from the Land of Revelation to Felon Continent … Two months." Ness pointed at the Land of Revelation, then at the Felon Continent. His fingertip released a faint glow that drew a line between the two continents.
"Without any external influence, the ship can travel at maximum speed, and it will take one and a half months to reach Felon Continent from the Land of Revelation," Angor said. Angor also drew a line in the illusion, but this time, he was drawing a meandering sea route instead of a straight line like Ness did.
"So, the Land of Revelation should be within Angelo's range of activities. But come to think of it, the Tower of Hurricane is behind the Land of Revelation, and Neya has been operating in the Central Empire for decades. In order to avoid being exposed, Angelo and his people shouldn't use the Land of Revelation as their base. "
Let's put the Land of Revelation aside for now.
Everyone's gazes continued to wander around the sea map and finally fixed on Sidro Fog Island.
"Sidro Fog Island … This island should be within Angelo's range of activities as well. Excluding the Devil's Water, this island is just two months away from Felon Continent. If we use a higher-tier vehicle, we should be able to reach Felon Continent in two days as well. "
"Sidro Fog Island is more likely to be Angelo's base than the Land of Revelation," Ness said.
However, this was all speculation without any concrete evidence.
Ness thought for a moment and turned to Jurington. "No matter what, continue to search for news about Angelo in the Felon Continent and nearby areas. Also, check if there were any adept organizations that had accepted talents in the Felon Continent before Angelo left the Manbadger Family. "
Ness believed that Angelo was not accepted by any wizard organization, but it was better to look for him first.
Jurington nodded seriously. "Alright, I'll tell the others now."
With that, Jurington bowed to the crowd and returned to the real world ahead of everyone else.
After Jurrington left, the group studied the sea map in the illusion again, and continued to delimit the area where Angelo might appear. However, the range was still too large. They needed more evidence to narrow it down.
"I wonder how the exploration of Sidro Foggy Island is going?" Nisse sighed.
According to their current speculation, Sidro Fog Island was very likely within Angelo's range of activities. However, they needed more evidence.
"Is there still no news from Wizard Filo?" Angor asked.
Ness thought for a moment before saying, "It's not like there's no news at all. Four days ago, Filo came online and said that he had already reached Sidro Fog Island. However, until now, there hasn't been any more information. I don't know if they've found anything. "
"Then we'll have to wait for Wizard Filo to come online and see if there's anything new."
"That's our only choice."
Angor sighed again and put away the map. He chatted with Ness and Granny for a while before returning to the real world.
However, as soon as Angor said goodbye, he heard clear footsteps coming from the stairs.
He turned around and saw Torras quickly walking toward him.
"Mister, there's a lady called Cindy Cummings outside. She said she was sent by Wizard Filo."
Angor paused and looked at Ness.
Ness and Angor exchanged a surprised look. They were just talking about Wizard Filo a second ago, and Wizard Filo already sent someone here. What a coincidence.
"Tell her to come up," Ness quickly said.
Angor sat down again and waited for Witch Cindy to show up.
A moment later, a Dark Element woman appeared in front of them. She was wearing a black leather coat and her long black hair was cut into sharp edges.
"Mister Ness, Mister Padt, and … Iron Granny," Cindy said respectfully. Cindy said respectfully. She didn't recognize Iron Granny at first, but after she was confirmed, she put on a humble expression.
"Look up." Ness glanced at Cindy and clicked his tongue a few times. "You … I remember you were with Wizard Filo's team?"
A trace of disgust flashed through Cindy's eyes as she looked at the lecherous Ness. However, she managed to control her emotions and lowered her eyes. "Yes."
"Then …" Ness reached out a hand and stroked Cindy's smooth skin. "I'm curious. What did you find?"
Cindy wanted to pull her hand away, but in the end, she bit her lip and didn't move.
Angor glanced at Ness and tapped the table with his index finger. Invisible ripples appeared on the table, followed by a series of creaking noises, and a chair made of nightmare appeared in front of him.
He pushed the chair closer to Iron Granny and said to Cindy, "Have a seat."
"Thank you, Mister Angor." Cindy nodded at Angor with bright eyes.
Cindy pulled her hand away and sat down on the chair about five meters away from Ness. When she sat down, Iron Granny poured her a cup of rose tea with a smile.
Ness was about to say something, but he quickly shut his mouth when he saw Angor and Iron Granny protecting him.
"I didn't do anything. Do you have to —"
Angor and Iron Granny didn't bother to talk to Ness.
Iron Granny gave Cindy a friendly smile. "Why didn't Filo come himself? Why did he send you to deliver the message?"
Cindy was still in a daze when she heard Iron Granny pouring her a cup of tea. She felt like she was dreaming. She only recovered when Iron Granny spoke again. "Mister Filo left for a while, and he hasn't come back yet. The rest of us discussed and decided to report to Mister Ness first."
"Filo left?" When? Where did he go? "
"Two days ago. He said he's going to investigate that place first."
That place? Where was it? Angor thought about it and decided against it. "Start from the beginning. Start from when you arrived at Sidro Fog Island."
Cindy nodded and told Angor everything that happened in the past four days.
Four days ago.
Under Filo's lead, the group finally landed on Sidro Fog Island. Next, they began to search the island for traces of energy left behind by the people with the number tattoos.
Since they knew the general area of the island was around the Northern Sand Coast, it didn't take them much effort. They soon found a large area that was clearly affected by energy waves.
As long as there were traces left behind, there would be traces. Besides, the terrain here had changed, so it was easy to find traces of energy waves.
Using a level-1 spell called Delusion Break, Filo was able to look back at what happened back then. Using Eye of Truth and Dispel Illusions, they flew all the way out of Sidro Island.
In the end, they entered the infamous Fog Belt on Devil's Water.
"After entering the Fog Belt, we ran into several dangerous situations. We even ran into a giant sea monster that was over a hundred meters long. But thanks to Mister Filo's guidance, we managed to get through all of them without much trouble.
"However, the energy field in the Fog Belt is different from the outside world. We followed the map and found our way here, but we couldn't find any clues. Some of them were even corroded by the fog until they disappeared.
"In the end, we couldn't find the exact location. We had to use Delusion Break to look for other clues in a certain area."
Nice asked, "Did you find it?"
"Sort of. But we didn't find any clues. We found a soul," Cindy said.
"A soul? Is it corrupted? Is it alive or dead? "Ness asked casually when it came to his own field.
"No, it's not corrupted. I don't know if it's dead or alive, but Mister Filo should know. "
"That's not important." "You said you found a clue. Do you mean this soul knows something?" Iron Granny asked.
Cindy nodded. "Yes. That's because the soul has a tattoo on its face. It's an X on the left, and the number '1' on the right. "
Filo went out to sea to look for someone with a tattoo on their face. If this soul had a tattoo on its face, it must have something to do with the sacrifice in the underground cavern and the Night Butterfly.
Therefore, Filo captured the soul and brought it to an uninhabited island nearby to interrogate it.
Cindy glanced at Angor. "Oh, right. I kept looking at this soul when we went to the island. I thought he looked familiar. After I confirmed his identity, I realized I was right."
"Yes, I've seen this soul before. I think Mister Padt knows about him. "
Angor looked at him. "Oh? He's — "
"Number One."
