"Why did you come back?"
As Angor moved forward, he suddenly heard a familiar old voice.
When he turned around, he saw that the Overseer had appeared beside him.
Watcher's familiar aura of distortion surrounded Angor, which worked together with his forcefield to reduce the attraction of the fruit.
"Sir." Angor lowered his head and bowed to the old man.
"Answer my question. Why did you come back?" The inspector frowned, his expression clearly showing his displeasure.
"I have my reasons." Angor remained silent for two seconds before he spoke again, "I have my reasons."
"Reasons? You want a Mystery item as well? Aren't you a little too ambitious? "
"I'm just curious about the Mystery item. I've never thought about stealing it. I came back because —"
Angor didn't know how to answer. He couldn't tell the truth. But he couldn't lie either. A legendary wizard could easily tell if someone was telling the truth.
As Angor tried to think of a way to answer, the Watcher frowned even harder. "You're looking for death!" he almost blurted out.
"It's the choice of fate." Angor suddenly looked up and used White Bear's classic line. "Fate guided me to come back."
Angor's answer wouldn't work on normal people. But for someone like Watcher, who could vaguely see miracles in the distance, his answer was useful.
"It's an indescribable feeling …" Angor quickly repeated what he told Sunders when the watcher did not refute his words right away.
After the inspector heard this, he immediately reacted and said, "Time thief? You've seen him before? "
Angor nodded. "Yes. When I was working on a certain item, I saw the Time Thief in my vision. He called himself … Cassini."
He briefly explained how he met the Time Thief for the first time.
When Angor mentioned that the Time Thief's real name contained the middle name "Cassini", Watcher was sure that Angor wasn't lying. This wasn't surprising. The Time Thief had marked a lot of people. Angor was a talented wizard, so it wasn't surprising that he was marked by the Time Thief. The Watcher was surprised that Angor wasn't chosen by the Time Thief.
Since he wasn't lying, then the "sense of destiny" he described might be true.
With that in mind, Watcher's eyes glowed and released a distorted domain.
Angor didn't notice anything, but the watcher saw the faint image of a golden clock behind Angor's back.
A clock meant that Angor was indeed marked by the Time Thief.
And the golden light of the clock meant that Angor was being watched by the Time Thief not long ago.
The Watcher was sure that Angor was telling the truth.
Even the Time Thief was looking at him, which meant that Angor's decision this time wasn't just a small one. It might really be "the choice of fate".
Leave or return.
Angor choose to return.
Neither the Watcher nor the Time Thief could tell if Angor's choice was right or wrong, or where his fate would end up … Otherwise, the Watcher wouldn't try to steal someone else's choice.
"I can understand your so-called" choice of destiny ". But I'm still curious. What made you decide to go back? "The watcher looked at Angor.
"I want to see the process of the birth of an object out of order. I think it's going to be very important to me, "Angor explained the rest of his reason after laying the groundwork for it.
The Watcher already believed in Angor's "choice of fate". When he thought about Angor's identity as a Mystery class, and how he regretted Angor's decision to leave, he began to believe in Angor's answer.
Angor was an alchemist who was determined to reach the Occult class. He didn't want to give up any chance to improve himself even in the face of terrible circumstances.
That was what the Watcher thought.
Of course, the real Angor did not think that way.
The Watcher only considered Angor's personal situation. He didn't consider the reason why Angor was forced to return.
Something in the void wanted Angor to come back and help him locate the Time Thief.
As for the existence in the void, it could only be "woof woof". It was the leader of the Void Travelers.
Of course, he wasn't going to risk his life for Woof Woof alone. Another "entity" was the main reason why Angor was willing to go back.
He couldn't tell Watcher about this. So, Angor began to play his role as an alchemist who didn't fear danger and only cared about his dreams.
The Watcher noticed it too. But since the Watcher already had a filter in mind, he only thought that Angor was trying to win his favor by putting on a show.
It was normal for low-tiered wizards to want to gain the favor of higher-tiered wizards.
It didn't matter.
The Watcher was convinced by Angor's words and didn't try to chase him away.
Because of Angor's "performance", the Watcher actually gave Angor some benefits.
The overseer said calmly, "For Froste's sake, I can make things easier for you. As long as you don't do anything unnecessary, you can stay by my side. "
The Watcher wouldn't directly protect Angor because of his oath. However, Angor could avoid a lot of danger by staying with the Watcher.
At least, he wouldn't have to worry about the fruit's attractiveness for now.
It was another form of protection, but he couldn't say it out loud.
"Thank you, Mister Watcher." Angor quickly thanked the Watcher. He was just thinking about how to survive in this dangerous place and whether he should use the Watcher's protection. Now that the Watcher offered to help him, Angor wouldn't refuse.
He knew he wouldn't get the fruit if he followed the Watcher. But he didn't really want the fruit anyway.
All he needed to do was help Woof Woof locate the fruit and observe how it went out of order. He could do both while staying with the Watcher, and his safety was guaranteed.
Angor couldn't help but praise "Froste" in his mind. Thank goodness he met this mysterious hunter before. Otherwise, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly.
Indeed, Mentor Jon was right. Connections were very important.
Angor felt much more relaxed after following the Watcher. He didn't move forward like a snail anymore. Instead, he followed the Watcher to the highest point.
From here, not only could he see No.03 on the waves below, but he could also see Boroye standing under the starry sky not far away … and No.01.
Angor wasn't surprised that Number 01 didn't die. Number 01 wanted to die. He wanted to escape as a dead soul while Cazider World was connected to the southern wizarding region. Boroye saw through Number 01's plan and wouldn't let him die so easily.
He would either capture Number 01 or tear his soul apart. Boroye chose the former.
Perhaps Boroye sensed Angor's gaze and looked at him.
Boroye didn't look intimidating at all. Instead, it looked as pure and innocent as its soft appearance. It even smiled at Angor.
Angor smiled back subconsciously.
"Don't be fooled by Boroye's appearance. It's famous in the origin world." The Watcher's voice came.
Angor stopped looking at the distance.
"It is also called the Magnificent Baltic Leaf, and the reason for the Magnificent prefix is that Gruz Dward dotes on it so much that he leaves all the good things to it, and its treasury is magnificent and magnificent. Boroye grew up in such a pampered manner and never knew pain. It became arrogant and proud, and neither good nor evil could judge it. "
It looked like a child on the outside, and it was also a child on the inside. However, the former showed the innocence of a child, while the latter showed the recklessness, stubbornness, and ignorance of good and evil.
While the Watcher was talking, the Watcher noticed that Boroye's sapphire eyes were staring at Angor with a hint of interest.
"You shouldn't have stared at it. It seems to be interested in you. It's not a good thing to be targeted by it. In its eyes, apart from its friends in Phantom City, everything else is … toys. "
A child's attitude toward toys was that it might love them one moment, but it might abandon them the next. It might even destroy or dismember the toy. This was how Boroye treated its toys.
Therefore, being targeted by it was extremely risky.
"You mean it's going to do something to me, sir?" Angor also noticed that Boroye was staring at him.
"It won't do anything to you in the southern wizarding region. Besides, it has a new target now. Whether it gets the fruit or not, it's going to leave in the end. "
Boroye also had a tendency to forget things. As long as Angor didn't show up in front of Boroye in the future, Boroye wouldn't send anyone to the southern wizarding region.
Of course, this was only the Watcher's opinion. Whether it was true or not depended on Boroye's opinion.
Still, the Watcher was sure that Angor would be safe for the time being.
While the Watcher was talking, Angor was thinking about something else. If Boroye was going to do something to him, should he ask Woof if he could kill it?
Woof didn't tell him why it wanted to locate Boroye, but Angor could tell from its words that it was angry.
If that was the case, Angor should think of a way to persuade Woof to kill it together with "that person"?
"Are you worried that Boroye will do something to you?" The Watcher thought Angor was worried since Angor didn't say anything.
Angor cleared his throat. "A little bit."
"Don't worry. Stay close to me and you'll be safe."
"I understand. Thank you, sir."
Angor turned his attention back to the fruit. The fruit was still in the growing stage. A large number of sea creatures were waiting for it to ripen. Angor couldn't see anything yet.
Suddenly, the Watcher broke the silence.
"You asked me about Reynolds before, but I didn't have time to tell you because of some reasons. Do you still want to know the answer? "
Angor hesitated for a second and nodded without hesitation.
He remembered that Sunders' sudden arrival interrupted the Watcher's thoughts. Angor thought he wouldn't be able to find out the truth in a short time. He didn't expect the Watcher to bring it up now.
The Watcher didn't think the same way. It was Sunders who interrupted the Watcher's thoughts. But even if Sunders didn't come, the Watcher wouldn't have answered Angor's question.
More importantly, the Watcher considered it a kind of knowledge. Even though the Law Keeper didn't have a high price for such knowledge, it wasn't unconditional. The Watcher didn't want to tell Angor the information for free.
The reason why he changed his mind was that he owed Angor a favor. In other words, it was a compensation exchange.
He hadn't used the monocle to log into the dream wasteland yet, so he couldn't tell how valuable it was. But since he accepted the monocle, it meant he accepted the offer.
Therefore, he planned to use the knowledge to repay Sunders' favor.
Of course, he would have to wait until he used the monocle in the future.
If the monocle was more valuable than the knowledge, Angor would definitely compensate Sunders in other ways. After all, "Compensation" wasn't just a form of proof. It was also a form of restriction.
"Since you want to know, and we have nothing else to do, I'll tell you," the Watcher said slowly. "Talent of Luck, does it exist? I don't know. Maybe, maybe not. But at least in my experience, I've never heard of the term 'luck talent'. "
"So, I won't treat Reynolds' situation as a talent of Luck.
"For the time being, I can't give you an accurate answer as to why Reynolds' luck is so strange. However, I can tell you one of my guesses. "
The Watcher didn't give a direct answer. Instead, he told Angor a story that actually happened.
Many years ago, a very famous person had appeared in a mortal kingdom of the Western Continent's Magus World.
His name was Child.
He was born in a poor family. Before Child was born, there wasn't much to say about this family. After Child was born, this poor family slowly became a household legend.
After Child was born, Child's father, mother, and siblings inexplicably started to have good luck.
At first, it was nothing special. For example, a rabbit would bump into a tree when they were hungry, a bird would drop fruit when they were thirsty, the weather would always be fine when they went out to harvest crops, and the harvest would always be better than last year.
At first, they didn't pay much attention to it. But as Child grew up, their luck got better and better.
It was no longer just a child's play. It had gone one step further.
They could find money while walking on the ground.
They could buy a random item from a street stall, but it was a royal antique from thousands of years ago.
When they encountered robbers, the robbers would fall on their backs. They could even get a large reward for tying up the robbers.
This kind of good luck covered Childe's family. In just a few years, Childe's family had transformed from poor farmers to wealthy merchants who were known far and wide.
Moreover, they didn't become rich from scratch. No one in their family knew how to do business. They started from nothing.
Even without any foundation, this family became a tycoon due to various coincidences and luck.
