"Angor?" Thewis repeated the name with a strange expression.
Seeing this, Eliza looked over curiously: "Why, you also heard of his name? Oh, right. When I came here from Fey Continent, the news about him creating a high-tier alchemy item was already spreading like wildfire. "
"A high-tier alchemy item?" Thewis raised an eyebrow.
"I think so. The rumors seem to be true. And I heard that he even recorded it. But I didn't have time to check it out because I was in a hurry. "Irisa showed a regretful look." High-tier alchemy items are hard to come by. I'll check it out when I get back. "
"Angor was an honest man when he asked for an alchemy item. I asked him to create a replica of the Crimson Crown, but I didn't expect him to be so serious as to find the Bloodline Retracement Array and engrave it on the crown. "
Irisa recalled Angor's expression when he learned the truth and couldn't help but chuckle.
Thewis pondered for a while and then said in an interested tone, "Speaking of which, I've heard of this name before I left the Marginalized Island recently."
"A name? You mean Angor? "Irisa was confused." Someone from Marginalized Island knows about Angor? "
Thewis nodded. "It's an apprentice I took in at Marginalized Island. His name is Leon Padt."
"I remember you mentioned him to me last time. He's the one who raised his spiritual power to the level of a talented person through extreme physical training?" Irisa had been traveling around Fey Continent for years, but she still contacted Thewis through some special means.
"Yes, that's him. When he heard that I was leaving Marginalized Island, he asked me to help him look for someone called Angor. "
"Leon Padt? Padt … Angor Padt?! Are these two people of the same race? "Eliza paused for a moment, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"If Angor is the same person Leon wants to know about, then they must be from the same race. Then they must be brothers from the same mother, "Thewis paused for a moment. "But I heard from Leon that Angor went to White Coral Floating Island Academy. But this' Angor 'you mentioned went to Brute Cavern. "
"More importantly, Leon said that his brother left Marginalized Island four years ago. Excluding the time spent on the road, he should have only cultivated for three years. But to reach the level of being able to refine high-grade alchemy items in just three years is a bit unbelievable. "
Eliza shrugged. "Talent and opportunity go hand in hand. Besides, his mentor is that person."
Sunders had three wizards in his family and a truth-finder wizard.
"No matter how he reached this height, I have to say that he will definitely be a Master Alchemist in the future." Eliza suddenly laughed, and the eyes under the mask flashed with slyness, "Speaking of which, you accepted his brother as an apprentice, so our relationship with him is naturally closer … Wouldn't it be easy to ask him to refine something in the future?"
Thewis, on the other hand, was not as optimistic. He had never met Angor before, so he had no idea what kind of person Angor was. Whether or not he could use Leon to get closer to Angor was another story.
Still, Thewis kept an eye on Angor.
Thewis then asked Eliza for more information about Angor. As they talked, the topic gradually changed from Angor to some major events in the wizarding world. For example, the Abyss Crisis and the changes in Fairy World.
With these words, the time passed from day to night.
"I'm going to leave now. Storm Shop in Floating City is being watched by a bunch of mad dogs. I don't want to leave my old man alone. If I didn't need to give you the fake Crimson Crown and the bottle of 'Heart Blood', I wouldn't have come all the way here. "
"Thank you for your hard work." Thewis gently stroked Eliza's hair, which reminded her of when she was a child.
Eliza pushed Thewis' hand away in annoyance. "Leave that to Eureka."
"Those mad dogs? Are they Goman King's men?"
"No. Goman King wouldn't dare to reach his hands into Floating Mech City. The 'mad dogs' I'm talking about are people who believe in the Lord of Depth. "Eliza didn't bother explaining and jumped out of Thewis' dimension.
After the two returned to Summerdew Ridge, Eliza was ready to leave.
"Oh right, I have a question for you before I go. Why are you staying in the Summer Dew Ridge? Could it be that … you like the Basket Witch? "Eliza asked with a sidelong glance.
"I'm just helping Summer Dew solve some problems. But it seems like Summer Dew's plan has failed. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll be leaving soon."
"Is it about Silver Palm Isle?"
Thewis remained silent.
Eliza put on an "understanding" expression, then threw a look to Thewis to be careful before turning around and leaving without hesitation.
…
Grue Town, Padt Manor.
Because of the return of the young master of the Padt Family, the entire manor was filled with excitement. Many of the servants watched Angor grow up, and they were all very excited about his return.
Head Maid Mana was one of them.
In the evening, Head Maid Mana still took out her handkerchief to wipe away her tears every once in a while, even though Angor had already met her in the afternoon.
Leon had no choice but to tell Mana to leave for now, saying that he had something private to discuss.
When Mana left, only the two of them were left in the grand banquet. For any noble family, a banquet with only the two of them might look shabby, but they didn't feel that way. Instead, they had so many things they wanted to talk about with each other.
It was just that when the words were at the tip of their tongues, no one knew where to start.
After a long time, Leon said in a low voice, "How have you been these years?"
Angor recalled everything that happened in the past few years and felt like he was dreaming.
"Pretty good."
"Yeah, I heard from Mana that you fought with Miss Eureka for a long time, and you even beat up the Watcher. Looks like you didn't waste your time. " Leon gave Angor an envious look. He had been staying in Grue Town all these years and never left. It wasn't that he didn't want to leave, but he still had his responsibilities and his promise to Angor.
"I don't want to waste my time when I think about the five-year promise I made with Mister Jon." Angor looked at Leon. Leon didn't change much during these four years. The only difference was that he looked more mature than before.
Leon lowered his head and avoided Angor's passionate gaze.
"Brother, I've been meaning to ask you something. How's Mister Jon doing?" Angor was worried about Jon's condition. Leon's expression, as well as his encounter with Eureka, made him very worried. However, there were too many people around, so he didn't have the time to ask until now.
"Oh, my dear brother. Why do you only talk about Jon when you're back? Why don't you care about me? I see, Jon is more important to you than me, your big brother. "Leon put on an exaggerated look of self-pity.
Angor sighed. "You're right in front of me, and I can feel that you're doing really well. So, can you tell me more about Mister Jon? "
"Why don't you tell me what happened to you during these years? Didn't you go to White Coral Floating Island Academy? Why are you at Brute Cavern now? "Leon tried to change the topic while holding a glass of wine to cover his expression.
"Don't change the subject, brother. I'm not going to leave right away. I'll tell you more about me later. Right now, I want to know Mister Jon's condition as soon as possible. "Angor's voice trembled." Is he … dead? "
Leon was silent for a moment and drank a glass of wine.
"Today was supposed to be a happy day. I was thinking of telling you later." Leon said, "Since you insist on asking, there's no harm in telling you."
"Jon's not dead. He's just not doing well."
Angor hurried to explain, "As long as he's still breathing, there's hope. Besides, I already know about his condition. Take me to him, and I can save him. "
"Sit down first, there's no rush," Leon said. "Do you know that he's from another world and is being rejected by the world's will?"
"Mister Jon never hid his identity. You should know that."
"I thought he was lying when he said he came from Earth. But I didn't expect him to come from another world. "
"Did Lady Eureka ask you to confirm it?"
Leon nodded.
"Mister George told me that Padt Manor was closed three years ago. So Lady Eureka came here three years ago? And she's staying here because of Mister Jon? "
Leon sighed. "Lady Eureka came to Padt Manor because she found the Morning Dew Potion, which is why she's here now. But when she came here, she sensed Jon's presence and began to study him. "
"Research?" Angor sneered. "Did she find anything?"
"No. She didn't. Lady Eureka stayed at Padt Manor because she wanted to study Jon, but she didn't find anything useful. The next year, she stayed at Padt Manor for something else. But she never told me what it was. "
"Something else? Maybe it's because of Mister Jon? " Angor knew how important it was to find a human who didn't belong to the wizarding world.
"Lady Eureka didn't do anything to harm Jon. At least, I didn't see her doing anything. Besides, Lady Eureka is the reason why Jon is still alive. "
