Connor's action instantly ignited the little universe in Marguerite's heart. If it weren't for Marguerite restraining her emotions back then, Marguerite might have rushed out and chopped Connor Ferguson, this scumbag who cheated on her feelings, into pieces!
Fortunately, Connor's consolation and actions were very useful to Marguerite. She also regained her rationality and knew that she and Connor were destined to not be able to stand under the sun for a long time in the future. After Connor became Count Connor, the position of Countess couldn't remain empty. Therefore, she tacitly accepted Varga as the Countess.
However, this incident with Connor also created a problem. Marguerite didn't expect that today would be the day when she planned to tell Connor about Firo. In Marguerite's eyes, she was already together with Connor. Therefore, it was only natural for her to ask Connor for help when she encountered trouble.
However, after this incident with Connor, Marguerite realized a problem. If she told Connor about Firo and asked him for help now, although Connor would definitely agree, the meaning would change. It would be as though Marguerite tacitly accepted Varga as Connor's future wife in order to seek Connor's help. It would become an exchange of benefits. Marguerite didn't like this. Therefore, she didn't follow her original plan of telling Connor about Firo and the Blood Moon Codex.
However, she was also worried that Firo would leave Sapped and cause all her efforts to be in vain. Therefore, Marguerite pointed at Connor and told him that there was something wrong with his second uncle, Warrent Ferguson. Marguerite knew that Connor was very good at carrying out orders.
As long as he knew that there was something wrong with Warrent Ferguson, Connor would be able to follow the clues to find out about Firo. By then, Marguerite would be able to tell Connor about the Blood Moon Codex. It would be natural for her to avoid the awkwardness of telling him everything now.
As for now, what Marguerite needed to do was to wait. She needed to wait for Connor to find out the relationship between his second uncle, Warrent Ferguson, and Firo before coming to find her.

Three days later, in a very secluded wooden house on the outskirts of Flosinone, Connor crossed his legs and leaned back on the chair. He was reading a document attentively. Beside him, an ordinary-looking, slightly plump man with gold-rimmed glasses was standing respectfully beside Connor. This person was none other than the general manager of the Ferguson Mineral Distribution Company — Arbeloa!
Ever since the last time Connor searched Arveloya's soul, he confirmed that although Arveloya hid his identity as a wizard and stayed in the Ferguson Family, he was not a spy sent by the Secret Society. In addition, Arveloya was quite talented, and the revival of the Ferguson Family needed such talents. Therefore, Connor didn't do anything to him. He only set up a restriction in his spirit ocean to ensure that Arveloya was under his control.
A few minutes later, Connor finished reading the document in his hand. He put it down and closed his eyes to think. Tapping his fingers lightly on the chair, Connor asked Arveloya, "Where is he?"
Upon hearing Connor's order, Arveloya, who was waiting respectfully at the side, immediately pressed a switch in the wooden house. Suddenly, a big hole appeared in the wooden house's floor, and a cross-shaped wooden stake rose up. A middle-aged man was tied to this wooden stake. He was covered in wounds and blood, and there wasn't a single spot on his body that was unscathed.
With the appearance of this middle-aged man, Connor opened his eyes. Although the middle-aged man's face was covered in blood and couldn't be seen clearly, this didn't prevent Connor from knowing who this middle-aged man was.
At this moment, the middle-aged man seemed to have woken up from his painful coma. When he saw Connor Ferguson in front of him, he was stunned at first. Then, he looked at Arveloya, who was standing respectfully at the side. His eyes were filled with disbelief, but his reaction was still very fast. In the next second, he accepted this fact and begged Connor, "Connor, I'm Warren Ferguson, your second uncle!"
"Firo was the one who took the initiative to look for me! I was also forced to do this. I beg you, let me go! For the sake of your father, Alfredo, Conor, I beg you, spare me! "
Hearing Warren Ferguson's pleading, Connor didn't say anything. He just stared coldly at the familiar man in front of him, whom he had never met before. "Second Uncle!"
Ever since he found out that there was something wrong with Warren Ferguson, although it wasn't difficult to search his soul, Connor still had some other things to do. Therefore, he left the task of investigating Warren Ferguson to Arveloya. On one hand, Connor wanted to find out what was wrong with his second uncle. On the other hand, he wanted to test Arveloya's abilities!
Now that Connor had seen the results of Arveloya's work, he was very satisfied with the results of the task Arveloya had given him.
Arveloya had dug up Warren Ferguson's situation in great detail. Connor's' second uncle 'had now become a beginner apprentice from an ordinary person. Not only that, Arveloya had also dug out a wizard known as the' Blood Moon Ruler ', Firo. The reason why Warren Ferguson could become a beginner apprentice from an ordinary person was all because of Firo!
According to Warren Ferguson's confession, he met Firo at an auction about a year ago. Firo used some tricks to gain Warren Ferguson's trust. Firo then said some very tempting things to Warren Ferguson, such as how becoming a wizard would increase one's lifespan and retain one's youth. This made Warren Ferguson yearn to become a wizard.
After successfully charming Warrent Ferguson with the temptation of becoming a wizard, Firo revealed his true identity and asked if Warrent Ferguson was willing to become a wizard. If Warrent Ferguson was willing, Firo would help him become a wizard.
