Ten seconds didn't seem like much, but it was only one-sixth of a minute. For ordinary people, it would pass in the blink of an eye. However, for Magi, ten seconds was enough for them to do a lot of things, such as casting spells in advance, using magic artifacts, and so on. If you were ten seconds faster than your opponent in a battle of life and death, there was no doubt that you would be closer to victory!
"Marguerite, believe me! My spiritual force is too strong, it's not as good as you think! " Slowly opening his eyes, Connor warned Marguerite in a deep voice. These words were spoken from the bottom of his heart. Previously, when his cultivation was still low, Connor was really glad that his spiritual force was much stronger than other Magi of the same rank.
However, now that he had become an advanced Apprentice Magus, Connor gradually understood what Reyes had said to him. Spiritual Magi were the lucky ones! But spiritual Magi were the unlucky ones!
Apart from the fact that his physical strength couldn't meet the needs of his spiritual force, what made Connor even more shocked was that the mysterious whispers that he would only hear when he was breaking through to the next realm could now be heard during normal cultivation. Although Connor's mind was firm, and the whispers during cultivation were unable to shake him, he could foresee that in the near future, these mysterious whispers would definitely be a huge problem for Connor!
Hearing Connor's advice, Marguerite nodded slightly. However, looking at Marguerite's eyes, Connor sighed in his heart. He knew that his advice didn't really have any effect on Marguerite.
Loen wasn't far from Dhaka town. Connor and Marguerite took less than three hours to reach the train station of Dhaka town.
Looking at the scenery in front of him that was the same as when he first came here a few years ago, Connor's heart was filled with emotions. When he killed Vidal, Rebecca was still worried about him. Who would have thought that he would become an advanced wizard apprentice a few years later?
After checking the tickets, Marguerite looked at Connor with a faint smile and said meaningfully, "Now that we're here, have you thought about where we're going?"
"What are you talking about? I don't understand what you mean. "Hearing Marguerite's words, Connor was shocked, but on the surface, he pretended that he didn't know.
"You don't understand what I mean? Don't worry, Connor. You'll understand in a while. To be honest, it's all thanks to you that I found this underground palace, Connor! " Marguerite stroked the purple hair on her forehead and looked at the mountains of Dhaka town in the distance.
Connor followed Marguerite's line of sight and instantly understood everything. He asked Marguerite with a dark face, "Marguerite, why did you ask me to come here?"
Sensing the hostility in Connor's words, Marguerite glanced at Connor. Her slender arms hooked around Connor's arm again, and she whispered in his ear, "Connor, you're such a bad guy. Why do you like to get angry so much?"
Connor sneered and pulled his arm out of Marguerite's embrace. He said firmly, "Marguerite, if you can't give me a satisfactory explanation, don't blame me for not keeping you company!"
"Really, why are you angry? Let's talk as we walk, okay? " Seeing that Connor was serious, Marguerite didn't dare to joke around with Connor anymore.
Seeing that Connor didn't object, Marguerite hooked her arm around Connor's arm again and walked on the streets of Dhaka town with Connor, pretending to be an ordinary tourist couple.
"Do you know when I first met you?" Marguerite asked Connor telepathically.
"I don't think it was at Mr. Harvey's birthday party at Pawar Manor!" Walking on this path that he had walked a few years ago, Connor recalled the scene when he first met Marguerite and smiled bitterly. His thoughts were right. There was a reason why Marguerite wanted to dance with him at the party!
"You're not too stupid! Do you still remember Vidal? The Church had their eyes on him at that time. I didn't expect him to die here in the end! " Marguerite said with a smile as she pointed at the castle in the distance. Her words were filled with excitement.
Looking at the castle that originally belonged to the great merchant Fabinho and the seal of the Church of the Storm on the castle, Connor turned his head and stared at Marguerite who was standing beside him.
Although Connor had already guessed that Margret's destination was the castle where he killed Vidal and Rebecca, he didn't expect that Margret's destination would be the castle where he killed Vidal and Rebecca.
But since they were already here, if Marguerite was still hesitating and didn't tell him the whole story, Connor was sure that he would turn around and leave immediately. He wouldn't be afraid of asking Marguerite to help him kill Old Victor!
"Okay, okay, I'll confess. I'll confess everything. The Church put me in charge of Vidal back then. I didn't immediately close the net because I wanted to cast a long line to catch a big fish. I didn't expect him to die here, and you, who were entangled with Rebecca, became the number one suspect in Vidal's death!"
"Because of your identity as the heir to the Ferguson family and the status of your mother's family, as well as the outbreak of the Guacetino incident, Bishop Constantine of the Loen Church of the Storm was deeply involved in the scandal. They didn't want to intensify the conflict with the nobles and wealthy merchants, so they temporarily suppressed it. They wanted to wait a while before investigating you, Connor!" Marguerite told Connor about the past events from a few years ago while standing in front of the castle.
"The Church of the Storm investigated me?" Upon hearing this news from Marguerite, Connor was shocked. He asked Marguerite for confirmation.
"Yes! But after knowing your identity and background, the investigation was temporarily suspended, "Marguerite said with a nod. She then glanced at Connor and changed the topic." But Connor, you don't have to worry. The Guacetino incident hasn't been settled yet, and the Church hasn't had the time to investigate you further. You and I met in the Men's Club, and you know what happened next. You and I have cooperated for so long, and you know that I know Blood Witchcraft, so I naturally have to protect you. I've secretly destroyed the investigation report on Vidal's death, and I've also secretly silenced the people who participated in the investigation of you! "
