Angor did not mention anything about Jon, Mara, Sunders, and Greya. He did not say anything.
What he said sounded like a lot of information, but it sounded like he was just brushing it off.
Fortunately, Sailum was still a naive child, so he did not notice anything wrong. Instead, he felt closer to Angor because they shared similar backgrounds. Nausica, as a former leader of Blackberry Waters, must be someone who knew how to get along with people. She did not point out the unwillingness in Angor's words. That was her way of life.
After this conversation, the three of them became closer. They talked about their plans for the future and parted ways.
Before leaving, Nausica suddenly spoke to Angor, "I had so much fun talking with you guys that I almost forgot why I came here."
"Why did you come here?" Angor was puzzled.
"It's nothing important. I just want to ask you about what happened last night. It's fine if you don't want to tell me," Nausica said.
"What happened last night? What happened last night? " Angor asked curiously. He was still on the cloud whale last night, and nothing happened … except for one thing. "You mean Ebony?"
Angor only remembered that he had some conflict with Ebony yesterday, but before he could say anything, Ebony was sent back to his tent by Nausica.
"It's not about my useless subordinate. I just want to ask you why there were so many fireflies in your tent yesterday morning."
Specks of light like fireflies? My tent? Morning? Angor had no idea what Nausica was talking about. He went to bed after returning to his tent last night, so he should still be asleep in the morning.
"Fireflies? I don't know. I went to bed really early yesterday morning. "
Angor's puzzled expression did not look like he was acting. Nausica didn't know what was going on. Did she see it wrong? That could not be right. She only cared about this because she woke up in the middle of the night to smoke. When she lit her lighter, the orange flame turned into a strange flame. Before she knew it, she saw some light coming from Angor's tent.
Angor did not close the curtains when he slept. Nausica looked inside and saw countless light dots circling around the tent. She was surprised and wanted to ask about it. But she was afraid that Angor was already an apprentice and was experimenting with some kind of spell, so she did not ask.
She also saw Angor floating in the air. She wondered if she was seeing things.
She was so curious that she decided to ask about it. If he didn't want to answer, she wouldn't ask.
But Angor's answer was that he did not know either!
The wizarding world was full of strange things anyway. She didn't need to figure everything out.
Angor returned to his room after Nausica left.
He was still confused. Did she see something in his tent? Is this true?
He didn't think Nausica would lie to him about something like this.
"Countless light spots? Don't tell me it's some kind of monitoring device? " As an armchair strategist who had read thousands of books, Angor did not hesitate to assume his teacher's worst intentions.
"Tweet tweet tweet —" Toby, who was placed on the wooden bed, woke up.
Toby stretched himself and used his beak to tidy up his clothes. After tidying himself up, he flew to the table in high spirits, where Butler Goode had prepared some dried fish for him.
"Eating right after sleeping? You're so happy," Angor teased.
Toby tilted its head and "rolled its eyes" at Angor in a very human way. Then it turned back to its work.
Angor scolded "little bastard" and thought about Nausica's words. Suddenly, he looked at Toby who was enjoying his meal and his eyes lit up.
Angor took a small wooden chair and sat in front of the table. He put his head on his arm and patted Toby who was still eating.
Toby did not care about its new owner's harassment.
"Little Toby, tell me, did you see anything strange in the wee hours of yesterday? Like light spots or something? "Angor did not hold much hope. He was just teasing the bird.
Toby heard the question and chirped a few times.
Angor had spent some time with Toby. He wasn't good at "bird language" yet, but he could still recognize several of Toby's calls.
"You really saw it?" Angor was surprised.
Toby nodded repeatedly. "Chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp."
"She's not lying. She's really something. But where did this light come from? What was the point? Is this really one of Sunders' surveillance methods? "Angor mumbled to himself.
Toby suddenly flew up and landed on Angor's shoulder.
Under Angor's confused gaze, Toby moved its claws from Angor's broad shoulder to his exposed clavicle.
Next, Toby reached out its beak and picked up a thin silver chain tied to Angor's collarbone.
Angor took the chain out of his pocket and saw a pendant attached to it. The pendant was made of metal mesh and contained a transparent glass bead — the Alien Eye.
Toby flapped its wings and flew to the Alien Eye. It poked at the bead with its beak and returned to the table.
"You mean … the Alien Eye is giving out light spots?" Angor asked in surprise.
Toby rolled its eyes and shook its head. "Chirp, chirp, chirp." Angor thought for a while and asked, "The Alien Eye is absorbing the light spots?"
Toby nodded again. "Chirp, chirp!"
"How is that possible?! That's unbelievable … "Angor still remembered what Jon told him about the Alien Eye. After bringing him from Earth to this world, it no longer did anything special. It turned into an extremely ordinary glass bead.
Angor didn't deny that the Alien Eye had something special. Otherwise, it wouldn't have brought Jon to this world. However, after so many years, the Alien Eye had never shown any signs of abnormality. Why would it suddenly change now?
There had to be a reason for a stable object to change. For example, a perfectly fine piece of graphite wouldn't turn into a diamond for no reason, unless there was a trigger.
Angor believed that there was a trigger for the Alien Eye's change.
What kind of incentive could it be? From a macroscopic point of view, it had to be a change in time or space. "Time" wasn't likely to be the trigger. After all, the Alien Eye had been ordinary for so many years. It couldn't have changed all of a sudden. But he couldn't rule out this possibility. "Space" was a possible trigger. After all, a change in geographical location could lead to many changes, such as changes in magnetic field, temperature, and so on. But Angor didn't think it was possible. He had to keep it a secret.
Apart from macroscopic factors, there were also microscopic factors, such as chemistry, physics, and Occultism unique to the wizarding world. This was the most likely possibility, but it was also the most difficult to estimate.
However, before making any speculations, perhaps he should find out if anything special happened last night.
