Angor didn't expect this at all. It took him a while to come to terms with it.
Next, he tried to control the mana in his mana pool and found nothing wrong. From the looks of it, his advancement this time should be fine, but why did he advance in his sleep?
Angor assumed it was because of the itch on his back.
The reason for the itch was definitely because he had absorbed too much fragrance, but what did this itch mean?
With that in mind, he asked Butler Number One, "Is my professor here? Did he say anything about my condition? "
Number One nodded. "Master should be here, but he didn't say anything. He only sent me a voice transmission to take Mister Padt to his bedroom. That's all."
"Voice transmission?" Angor was confused. "He didn't come to see me?"
Number One nodded.
"Then who treated me?" Since Number One told Angor that his condition was caused by the "sealing potion", someone must have treated him.
"It was Mister Mithra. He came not long after Mister Padt came back. Mister Mithra was the one who diagnosed your condition, "Number One explained.
Mithra? Angor didn't expect Mithra to treat him. Did the professor invite Mithra here?
However, after he asked this question, No.1 shook his head and denied it.
Angor was getting more and more confused. According to Number One, Mithra came here for something else. Since Angor had a problem with his body, Mithra decided to help him. But what about Sunders?
Sunders wouldn't refuse to check Angor's condition, would he? Sunders' request must have something to do with the Nightmare Realm, after all.
So Sunders wasn't here?
Angor suddenly remembered Number One saying "Master should be here". Why did it use "should"?
"Are you sure the professor is here?"
Number One didn't answer right away. Instead, it pondered for a moment. "… I'm not sure."
As Number One explained, Angor slowly understood why Number One said "I'm not sure".
Sunders never left his study these days, and Number One didn't dare to enter the study without Sunders' permission.
When Angor returned from the purification garden, Number One went to Sunders' study and asked him what he should do, which was why Number One said "should be here".
As for whether Sunders was at home or not, Number One did not know.
Angor frowned as he listened to Number One's explanation. If Angor remembered correctly, he did not see Sunders a week before the garden was opened, but he did not pay much attention to it. On the day he left the garden, he tried to find Sunders, but Sunders only told him to leave through the door of Sunders' study.
If Sunders was still at home, it meant that he had not left his study for almost a month.
Did something happen to Sunders?
Mithra mentioned that the strongest man in Floating Mech City was Lawson, and Lawson didn't seem to be able to defeat Sunders in a fight. But Sunders should be fine, right?
Angor was a little worried, so he decided to check the study himself.
"Number 1, help me up."
…
He did not see Sunders in the end. But he heard Sunders' voice from the other side of the door. It sounded tired and hoarse.
"I'm fine. You can go now."
Angor planned to ask Sunders about the itch on his back as soon as he heard Sunders' answer. Considering how much Sunders cared about the Nightmare Realm, he would definitely help him.
But before Angor could say anything, Sunders already asked him to leave.
The eviction order was not a silencing spell. If Angor really wanted to talk, he could still speak loudly. However, he chose to remain silent because he vaguely heard a laughter in the study.
It sounded like Sunders' voice, but there was something different about it.
Sunders had a guest?
Angor stood outside the door for a long time and finally couldn't help but lean against it to listen. However, as soon as he put his ear on the door, a gentle force came from inside and threw him away.
It was not a powerful force. It was only used to push Angor away.
There was no doubt that someone was inside the study, and that person was most likely Sunders. But why didn't Sunders come out?
He thought about the noise he heard when he was close to the door and felt a little confused.
Dodoro came to him from the side.
He was going to ask Number 1 to help him to the study, but Dodoro just happened to come in with a towel. According to Number 1, Dodoro was the one who helped him wash up during the three days he was unconscious. Coincidentally, the sky had just begun to brighten. It was the first glimmer of dawn. Dodoro came to Angor's study with a wet towel.
Compared to Number 1, Angor trusted Dodoro more. In the end, Dodoro helped him to Sunders' study.
"Let's go back."
Instead of sleeping on his bed, Angor went to a soundproof room and stayed there alone.
The quiet room was empty and extremely suitable for meditation. At the same time, it was also suitable for thinking.
Angor recalled the voices he heard when he was leaning against the door and frowned. Sunders tried to push him away, but Sunders still managed to hear some of their conversation.
There was a strange and meaningless laughter.
Angor also heard someone calling him "My apprentice, Angor."
Neither of the voices belonged to Sunders. But they sounded more frivolous, as if they belonged to a young man.
Angor didn't know much about the strange laughter because he didn't know much about it. However, the phrase "my disciple Angor" left a strong impression on him.
Back in Midnight Sovereign, Angor and Sunders were going to close the nightmare tunnel together, so they kept communicating with each other through voice transmissions. When the tunnel was about to be closed, Angor heard something similar from Sunders' side.
"My student, Angor." That was what Sunders called Angor. Sunders also mentioned something about wanting to study Angor's soul and asking Angor to die for him.
Angor didn't think too much about it, but he didn't think too much about it. Besides, Sunders also told him to ignore the voice.
As for how Sunders introduced the owner of the voice, Angor remembered that Sunders used the word "old friend".
So Sunders didn't come out for a month because of this old friend?
But why would Sunders hide in his room for a month just to see his old friend? Angor still found it strange, but he didn't have any other ideas. He had to put the matter aside for now.
Angor shook his head. He couldn't figure it out, so he decided not to think about it. He had other things to think about. He didn't have time to think about what would happen after his advancement. He needed to check the condition of his soul first.
The itch on his back that day must be because his soul absorbed a large amount of law essence.
When he woke up today, he already felt something strange about his soul. But he didn't check it out because there were other people around. Now that he was in the soundproof room, he decided to check it out.
Angor immediately felt something different after using Spirit Whisper to eject his soul.
If one didn't look closely, his soul would almost look like a real person now. It was obvious that his soul had become more solid. Apart from that, Angor also noticed that his soul could affect the material world to a certain extent without using soul energy.
For example, he could now pick up a book and directly interfere with the material world without using any soul power.
This meant that even if his body died, his soul would continue to exist in this world. Even if he didn't run into any wizards, he could still sneak into the mortal world with his soul.
Such a soul was already as good as a top-level apprentice in Soul Manipulator. Maybe even better! And he had already passed the threshold to become a wizard!
But that wasn't what Angor was concerned about. He was more concerned about the wound on his soul.
He carefully sensed the wound and found that it was different from before. But he wasn't sure if it was a good thing or a bad thing.
His soul was being fed back faster.
Pure soul energy would always flow out of the wound, as if it was increasing the quality of his soul out of thin air. However, the flow of soul energy wasn't fast in the past. If Angor wanted to use the sequence of gravity, he would have to use the soul training method Isabelle taught him.
However, from the looks of it now, the speed of the soul power being fed back from the wound had doubled, and the speed had also increased by a lot.
In other words, as long as Angor didn't overuse his soul energy and didn't need to fight for Soul Orbs with Toby, he could recover his soul energy quickly by using the soul training method.
So this was what "it" got after consuming so much of the fragrance?
In terms of benefits, this was indeed a good thing. But Angor still didn't understand what was going on behind the wound. What did "it" gain by doing this? It couldn't just give away so much soul energy for free, right?
Angor couldn't figure it out, and maybe Sunders couldn't give him an answer either.
The only way to solve this mystery was to use the wound on his back as a medium and visit the Nightmare Realm where "it" belonged.
But that wasn't a good idea.
Angor tried again. When his soul energy was full, the flow of soul energy from the wound would slowly stop. When it used up a lot of soul energy, the flow of soul energy would accelerate again.
It was as if "it" could check the condition of his soul.
Because of this, Angor was even more wary of the wound.
But he had to admit that this was a good thing for him. At least he didn't have to worry about the excessive soul energy that might cause his soul to explode.
If he allowed his soul to return to his body, it would be possible for him to force a breakthrough in his current state.
It was the same reason why Jebra managed to break through as soon as his soul was purified.
Angor sighed and put this "suspicious" matter aside for now. He began to meditate.
While Angor was meditating, a butterfly approached him from the sky tens of thousands of kilometers away from Floating Mech City.
