Angor sighed. "Mister, like I said, I don't need anything from this place. I can accept the poems, but I know a wizard outside the sewers. I can ask him for some single-use space capsules to store the poems. "
In other words, Angor didn't want to let Olao follow him.
The puppet chuckled. "I know Olao is one of the twin mirrors, but I can't say no. She really is a poet. The situation she sees and the future she thinks about are completely different from Oleo and Adanis. "
The alchemy puppet used this response to belittle Olao and Adanis' thoughts once again. Angor smiled bitterly in his mind. It was fine to belittle someone, but why did they have to compare him to someone else? They were just making him hate himself.
As expected, Olao and Adanis both glanced at Angor. However, their expressions were different. One was doubtful, while the other was disdainful.
There was no doubt that they didn't think Angor was worthy of Augustine's praise.
The puppet continued, "Poet, don't be in such a hurry to refuse. I know you don't care about the current situation. However, I have my own reasons for asking you to take care of Olao. "
As these words fell, the expressions of everyone present revealed a look of surprise.
The conversation between the alchemy puppet and Angor was only a blur. Since Angor did not remove the veil, they did not understand what was going on. However, the alchemy puppet's words made it clear that it was going to give Olao to Angor.
Despite Angor's refusal, everyone was still surprised. They did not understand why the alchemy puppet valued Angor so much. Was it because of the so-called 'Chanter' title?
Among the crowd, Adanis's reaction was the biggest. She stood up from her chair.
She gave the puppet a doubtful look.
The puppet glanced at Adanis. "Once Olao's contract is broken, we need to find him a place to stay. So, Adanis, you want to follow Olao too? Of course, it's your choice, and I won't interfere. But are you sure you want to do this? "
The puppet's meaningful words made Adanis think of something. Her doubtful expression slowly dimmed, but she didn't say anything as she silently sat down.
The puppet looked at Angor again. "Since you already know about the twin mirrors, you should know that the mirror in the origin world is Olao's brother."
Angor nodded. He already knew that.
The alchemy puppet said, "When I refined these two mirrors, Oladio and his elder brother, Adegu, were actually the same person. Adaigu was brought to the Origin World by me, and after a round of polishing, the embryo shone with glory. Tens of thousands of stars illuminated the boundless void, and in the end, it became the famous Twin Life Mirror you speak of. "
"With my current abilities, it won't be a problem for me to create a sharp edge for Olao, this embryo. But even if I succeed, he's still much weaker than his brother. "
To put it bluntly, Augustine was able to turn Olao's elder brother into the famous Mirror of Truth. But he couldn't turn Olao into a Mystery item on the same level as the Mirror of Truth. Even if Olao somehow managed to become a Mystery item, he was still far from the Mirror of Truth.
"Why is that? Is it because of some kind of restriction? "
Angor didn't want to interrupt, but he was too curious about how to create a Mystery item. Now that he was standing in front of a grandmaster who once created a top-level Mystery item, he couldn't help but ask.
The puppet shook its head. "I know what you're thinking. There are no restrictions on the surface, but there are still some rules in the dark. For example, compatibility.
"My compatibility with Adegu is much higher than Oleo's. Because of this, when the embryo matured, Adegu was able to shine with unprecedented brilliance in my hands. However, the compatibility between Olao and me isn't high. Even if I forcefully nurtured him, he wouldn't be able to reach Adegu's level. "
"But when I created the two mirror embryos, I had a vision. I wanted the two mirrors to reach the same level.
"I'll keep it a secret for now. But I'm sure we'll meet again in the future, and I'll tell you the answer then."
The puppet paused for a moment before continuing.
"Because of this vision, I still call Adaigu the Twin Mirror. There are always wizards who like to call it something else, but to me and Adaigu, he's the Twin Mirror.
"Since they're twins, I can't let Adaigu be the only one in the world. Olao must become another mirror that resonates with Adaigu from afar. That's how the two of them can become true twins.
"But with my compatibility with Olaf, I won't be able to nurture him to Adegu's level. Even if I'm lucky and can nurture Olaf to a level similar to Adegu, he'll only be another 'Adegu', not Olaf. Do you understand what I mean? "
Angor considered for a moment. "You're saying that Adaigu's path is unique. If Olao tries to follow Adaigu's path, he'll only become the second Adaigu, not Olao. "
The puppet chuckled. "That's right. The Poet can understand me."
… This wasn't a matter of understanding or not. Since it had already come to this point, it was easy to guess, right? Angor complained in his mind.
"That's why I took Adaigu away and left Olao behind. This is because Olao needs to wait for someone who can truly nurture him to the height of the Twin Mirror. "
Angor already knew what the puppet was going to say next. "That person is you!"
Sure enough, the alchemy puppet said, "And I believe that this person is the Poet."
"… I'm honored to receive your praise, but I'm sure I can't reach that level."
The puppet waved a hand. "You can't reach it now, but that doesn't mean you can't reach it in the future."
Angor narrowed his eyes. "You're saying you can see my future?"
While speaking, Angor instantly raised his vigilance to the highest level.
Back in the Abyss Plane, he couldn't avoid "Feng" no matter where he went. The Auga Secret Key he found was also left behind by Feng. Also, the key's final destination was the Tidal Realm, which he discovered when he was still an apprentice.
It was as if Feng had already planned Angor's fate for him.
Although Angor learned from Feng that all these coincidences were actually the result of The Book of Kael. Feng didn't know who was chosen by The Book of Kael.
In other words, Angor was chosen by the Book of Kael by luck.
He didn't know if his theory was valid or not, but he was still afraid of his predestined fate.
Now, the puppet's words reminded him of "predestined fate". Angor immediately raised his guard.
The puppet saw through Angor's thoughts and smiled. "You mean The Book of Kael?"
Angor remained silent.
The puppet shook its head. "The Book of Kael is kept in the Order Guild, but the Temple of Prophets must decide how to use it. I have a small grudge with the Temple of Prophets. It's not a big deal, but they won't allow me to use The Book of Kael. So, don't worry. I'm not destined to use The Book of Kael. But, if I have the chance, I do want to study the Book of Kael. "
"So you've been arranged by The Book of Kael before?"
Angor didn't know what to say.
Angor didn't admit it, but he still admitted it.
The alchemy puppet smiled. "If you were really arranged by the Book of Kael, you don't need to care too much. From another point of view, those who can be arranged by The Book of Kael are no small fries. "
"Since it has nothing to do with The Book of Kael, I want to know why you're telling me about the future, mister. I can't even see what's happening in the present, let alone the future. "
The alchemy puppet replied, "Well … It's naturally because I saw your potential. The future is uncertain, but there are very few who have the potential to reach that step. "
Angor couldn't help but roll his eyes in disdain.
Did the puppet think he couldn't tell what it was trying to say?
The word "potential" was a compliment used by those at the top of the hierarchy to oppress those at the bottom of the hierarchy.
Perhaps it was too much to describe it as "oppressive". After all, a word's nature would change depending on the time and environment it was used in. But in Angor's opinion, the word "potential" could be used to encourage each other. But when it came from someone at Augustine's level, it was just a perfunctory statement.
Angor didn't say anything, but he couldn't hide the "disbelief" in his eyes.
The puppet smiled but didn't explain. Instead, it turned to Olao and asked, "You heard the conversation between me and the chanter, do you have any thoughts?"
Olao remained silent for a moment. "I still want to follow you, mister."
The alchemy puppet asked, "That's your idea? I thought Adanis was the only one who's childish. You haven't grown up either. "
Olao lowered the brim of his hat to hide the disappointment in his eyes. "You don't agree, mister?"
"I can agree, but do you know where I am? You can't even leave the southern wizarding region. How are you going to find me? "
"More importantly, do you really want to give up your future? You can betray my vision, but do you want to betray Adaegu? Don't you want to stand on Adaegu's level and see what he sees? "
"… I don't want to disappoint you, mister. And I don't want to disappoint my brother either. But can the chanter really do what you say, mister? "
"I can't give you a definite answer. But aren't you curious as to why I gave him the title of" Chanter "?"
"Aren't you curious as to why he came all the way to the Chamber of Poetry and didn't want anything?"
"Aren't you curious why the clone of the Gluttonous Flower King, whose true strength is above the Legendary-level, and the otherworldly Infant Spirit, whose strength is far greater than yours and Adanis's, were only in awe when facing him?"
The puppet glanced at Angor again, as if it was telling Angor that the words were meant for him as well.
Angor didn't say anything, but his mind was already in turmoil. Did the puppet notice that a fragment of the Glutton Flower King's consciousness was attached to an ordinary Glutton Flower?!
Also, he mentioned something else: Angor came all the way to Moonlight Poetry Room, and he did not want anything. How could that be justified?
Did this mean that the puppet knew why he had come? Did it know that he didn't care about the Chamber of Poetry in the real world, but the one in the Nightmare Realm?
While Angor was still wondering, the others were also shocked.
A legendary-level Glutton Flower King?!
Glutton Flower Kings didn't even have legendary-level creatures in Manda Plane. What's with this one? Where did it come from?
And why didn't the legendary Glutton Flower King resist Angor at all?
Even Adanis couldn't help but tremble in fear. She had always thought that the Baby Spirit was the main body and that the Glutton Flower was just a toy of the Baby Spirit. Now, Augustine was telling her that the Baby Spirit was nothing and that the Glutton Flower was just a clone of a Legendary-level Glutton Flower King?
Are you kidding me? Did she just lock up a legendary-level creature in a mirror space?
She was inviting a wolf into her house!
The Mirror Domain wasn't as safe as she thought. Powerful legendary-level creatures could easily enter the Mirror Domain as long as they could locate them. If a legendary-level creature really wanted to destroy the mirror space, most of the mirror space in this area would be destroyed.
Adanis's heart skipped a beat when she thought about it.
Because of this, Adanis was also curious about Angor. She was curious because Olao cared about Angor. Now, Adanis was curious about Angor of her own accord.
Just as Augustine had said, why would even the Gluttonous Flower King and the Infant Spirit treat him with such reverence?
While everyone was bewildered, the puppet kept asking, "Could it be that you don't want to know why I feel that the Chanter has the opportunity to let you walk a completely different path from Adaigu, yet you can still stand on the same level as Adaigu?"
Olao couldn't answer the first few questions of the puppet's series of questions, and only the last one made him whisper, "Master said that chanters have potential."
"Yes, I did say he has potential. But do you think there are only a few of us with potential?"
The alchemy puppet's gaze swept across everyone, but apart from pausing for a moment on the Black Earl's clone, it glanced at everyone else. "… For example, this nose has a lot of potential. But as I said, can it help you reach Adegu's level?"
The puppet didn't comment on them, but they still felt wronged.
Didn't the puppet say there were plenty of people with potential here? Why did it only mention the Black Earl? The others weren't even given a second look.
They felt wronged, but they didn't dare to say anything. Even Dorcas, who always loved freedom, didn't dare to say anything.
The alchemy puppet said, "Thus, potential is potential, but the potential that can help you, I can see it in the chanter."
Olao didn't say anything. He had used up all his courage to refute the puppet.
The puppet understood Olao very well. Although it refuted, Olao would still do it if it was ordered to do so.
However, the puppet hoped that Olao would follow Angor on his own instead of being ordered to do so.
However, he did not have much time left in this world, so he could not tell them everything. He could not say that Angor had a light that no one else could see. It was the light of miracles.
Besides, no one would believe him anyway.
Olao couldn't go wrong by following Angor. Also, Augustine saw the Mystery light on Angor's body from his alchemy omen, which meant Angor had reached the Mystery level.
The seed of a miracle, the potential of a Mystery Alchemist. Geniuses with such potential were rare even in the origin world. The southern wizarding region, which was isolated from the rest of the wizarding world, actually had such a new star.
For the sake of his own vision, Augustine wanted Olao to stay close to Angor. Or rather, he wanted Angor to help him.
Giving Angor the title of "Chanter" was an investment in advance. The title seemed useless, but everyone in the Noah Clan would accept it. Of course, this branch of the Noah Clan in the southern wizarding region was an exception.
Augustine could see that Olao didn't want to accept the title. But since he already said so, Olao would surely follow Angor's order.
Olao might not want to follow Angor, but it was better to follow Angor first.
Now that Olao was dealt with, Augustine still had to deal with Angor's wish.
