Isabella smiled in response to Connor's threat. She stroked the loose hair on her forehead and said indifferently to Connor, "Connor Ferguson, do you think that I would leave with my tail between my legs just because of your threat after sitting in a carriage for two hours and traveling hundreds of miles?"
"Connor Ferguson, if you're willing, I don't mind discussing matters with you here. But I'm thinking that since you're hiding in such a place, you probably don't want to be discovered, right?" Isabella said slowly as she swept her gaze across the surroundings.
"Are you threatening me?" Sensing the threat in Isabella's words, a cold glint flashed in Connor's eyes, and he said coldly,
Isabella glanced at Connor. It seemed that Connor was hostile towards her, so she didn't say anything to provoke him. Instead, she directly squeezed into the yard through the crack in the door. She met eyes with Varga, who was standing in the yard.
Seeing that Isabella actually dared to ignore him and barge into his courtyard, Connor immediately flew into a rage. He was about to forcefully chase Isabella out of the courtyard with a wave of his hand, but what he didn't expect was that Valga, who was looking at Isabella, suddenly asked Connor, "Who is she?"
Although Varga's question was simple and emotionless, Connor, who was familiar with Varga's personality, could clearly sense the jealousy in his words. Connor instantly had a headache. He knew that Varga must have misunderstood him and thought that he had an affair with Isabella.
"Are you the genius pharmacist, Varga? My name is Isabella. You must have heard of my name in the Secret Society, right? " Isabella raised her eyebrows and introduced herself to Varga before Connor could say anything.
"Connor Ferguson. Who is she?"
Although Isabella had already introduced herself, Valga didn't buy it. He continued to stare at Isabella while asking Connor emotionlessly, "What's the matter?"
"Isabella. She's from the Duke's faction!"
Sensing that Varga was about to explode, Connor hurriedly said, "She's from the Duke's faction.
Isabella seemed to have sensed that Varga's words were unusual. She looked at Varga with interest, then said with a smile, "Miss Varga, I know about your relationship with Connor. Don't worry. Although Mr. Connor is very outstanding, he's too scheming. He's not my type, so you must have misunderstood."
Upon hearing Isabella's words, Varga looked at her deeply, then said softly, "Whoever wants it can have it. I don't want it anyway!"
After saying that, Varga ignored Connor and Isabella and went straight to her room, closing the door.
After seeing Varga return to her room, Isabella teased, "It seems that Mr. Connor has encountered some problems in your relationship."
Connor couldn't wait to chase Isabella out of the courtyard. However, he knew Varga's character very well. He knew that if he really chased Isabella out of the courtyard at this time, Varga, who no longer had much trust in him, would definitely think that he had a guilty conscience. That would be terrible.
Therefore, Connor had no choice but to glare fiercely at the innocent Isabella, then closed the door. In order to prove his innocence, he walked to Varga's room, then transmitted a message to Varga in the room, "Varga, I know you may not believe me, but I don't know why she came here. She wants to discuss something with me in a while. If you agree, Varga, I want to talk to her in front of you!"
At this moment, Varga, who couldn't wait to cut Connor into pieces, heard Connor's words and immediately had a thought. He wanted to accept Connor's suggestion, but he was in a dilemma for a moment.
Although Varga didn't say anything, he knew that if Varga didn't object, it meant that he had tacitly agreed to his suggestion. Without hesitation, he asked Isabella, who was standing in the courtyard, in a deep voice, "Speak, why are you looking for me?"
When she heard that Connor wanted to discuss something with her in the courtyard, Isabella frowned slightly and didn't answer Connor's question.
Seeing that Isabella didn't speak, Connor opened his mouth again, "Isabella, get this straight. You are the one who came to look for me, not the other way around. I will only give you this one chance. If you have something to say, say it here. If you don't, you can leave!"
"Alright, then let's talk here!"
Realizing that Connor's attitude was so firm, Isabella sighed helplessly. Then, she took out a crystal ball from her space ring and showed it to Connor as she said, "Connor, I came to look for you this time because of this crystal ball. In this crystal ball, there is a spell called Alberto's Ice Ability. However, in addition to that spell, there are many other useless things in this crystal ball. So, I need Connor to help me collect this spell from this crystal ball!"
After hearing Isabella's description and looking at the crystal ball in Isabella's hand, Connor immediately understood what was going on. He looked at Isabella with a faint smile and said, "Did you search people's souls and then strip their memories into this crystal ball?"
Knowing that she couldn't hide this from Connor, Isabella nodded and said, "That's right!"
"There are many Magi in your King's faction who are good at using the power of the will, right? Why did you come to me for this?" Looking at Isabella's expression, Connor sneered.
As if she had already expected Connor to ask this question, Isabella didn't hesitate and said, "Connor, you're right. Our King's faction does have a few Magi with strong power of the will who can do this. However, we came to you for two reasons!"
"The first reason is that this Alberto's Ice Ability is very important to me. I want to get it as soon as possible!"
"The second reason is that this crystal ball was made by Master Adolf. Master Adolf is not an alchemist, so the memories in this crystal ball were forcefully extracted by him. However, the memories in this crystal ball dissipate very quickly. The memories in the crystal ball will last for at most a week before dissipating. One week is too short a time. In such a short time, even if we can find a Magus who can extract the spell from the crystal ball, he won't have the time to do so!"
