Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 1124 New experience and new clues

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

Time passed minute by minute, and I don’t know how much time passed in between. Just when Natalie’s mind was gradually filled with the uneasy scenes she imagined, she finally heard the reply from the person next to her: “I’m fine. , do you have any other plans next?"

But to her surprise, the first sentence she heard was neither a criticism of her nor a detailed explanation of the homework topic directly after the necessary prompts as usual.

"No, was the homework I wrote before terrible...?"

After quietly taking a deep breath, Natalie finally asked the question that she had never been able to ask before.

"No, that's not that bad..."

Having said this, noticing Natalie's increasingly ugly expression, Cyrus's originally very relaxed expression couldn't help but stiffen.

He thought for a while and quickly added: "It's just a small problem. It's not serious but it shouldn't happen."

Natalie secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and now she was no longer so afraid. She carefully pulled the chair under her and took the initiative to listen to the other party explain the wrong questions to her without any further delay.

Seeing that Natalie had indeed adjusted her mentality, Cyrus also understood something. He took out new paper, took out the pen again, and patiently explained each question in the order from simple to relatively complex.

Time continues to pass smoothly,
  Just when Natalie began to listen intently to the explanation of the third topic, a knock on the door suddenly interrupted the two of them.

So the two stopped what they were doing at the right time and looked back in the direction of the door.

After a while, Anatole came to the two of them with a letter with a very exquisite and simple envelope.

"Is it from the judge?"

"Yes."

"Give me the letter directly. If they are still waiting for my reply, then tell them that I have other work to be busy with now, and I will rush over as soon as the matter here is over."

Anatole nodded slightly to show his understanding, and without saying anything else, he closed the door and left quickly.

Watching Anatole's back gradually disappear at the other end of the door, Natalie instinctively felt a little worried. She looked at the assistant of the Sage of the West District of Fire beside her with an inquiring look. She was very conflicted in her heart about whether she should Speak out your concerns.

"Don't worry about me. Since I've said before that it's not urgent, it won't be a problem if you go there a little later."

Cyrus didn't care much about the answer at first.

He was about to lower his head again and continue what he had planned to say before, but found that Natalie seemed to be a little stuck on the matter just now. He couldn't help but feel helpless. He quickly glanced at the exercise book in front of him, and then added with confidence: "Moreover, There are not many questions left. Except for those errors caused by your personal carelessness, there are only two questions left. Of course, according to my usual personal habits, after finishing these questions, I will probably check them. Forget about your mastery today, you can review it by yourself for the rest of the day, and I will check what needs to be checked tomorrow."

"OK…"

Natalie nodded slightly, not letting herself think any further, and quickly turned her attention to the exercise book in front of her. They were not disturbed again for the next time. Less than ten minutes later, Cyrus finally put away the pen and pushed the exercise book back to Natalie.

After doing this and explaining some of the problems he had discovered during his previous guidance, Cyrus quickly closed the door again and left the mansion without saying anything else.

When he returned again, it was already approaching evening. After calculating how long it would take for Ursula to return to the West District of Fire, he immediately came back to Natalie's vicinity.

"The results of what happened this morning have come to an end. Do you want to know the specific situation?"

Before Natalie could cast a doubtful look, Cyrus straightforwardly stated his purpose.

"think…"

Natalie nodded without hesitation in reply.

She originally wanted to ask if she could know, but then she realized that the question was a bit redundant and she quickly stopped thinking about it. She stopped thinking about it and immediately put on a posture of listening attentively, waiting for the coming answer.

"The person who was instructed to follow you this morning once belonged to the 'Explorer'. Regarding this person, we also spent some time today to locate his whereabouts, but the situation is not ideal. He seems to have known that he is destined to be exposed. Before we can The team left his previous residence before finding him, and there are currently no clues about his subsequent whereabouts..." At this point, Cyrus couldn't help but pause briefly and thought about whether it was necessary to tell Natalie the truth behind Leah's death. , he did not speak in the end, skipped this paragraph, and started the next paragraph without any abnormality, "However, although no one can be found, we still found some clues from his previous residence that are helpful to the matter itself. .”

"What clue?!"

Natalie couldn't wait to ask.

After asking, she realized that her behavior just now was rude, so she hurriedly pursed her lips and nodded with a firm expression to signal the sage assistant beside her to continue talking.

"Do you know what role wood magic played in ancient times, no, to be precise, in the middle and late First Era?"

Cyrus asked tentatively first.

[The middle and late period of the First Era...]

Natalie silently repeated the key words mentioned by the sage assistant in her mind, and began to try hard to find the historical knowledge in her mind that met the requirements.

Because the history of the First Era had gone so long, she was deeply impressed. When her teacher told her about that history, she would often use some legends to facilitate her understanding and memory.

She was quite impressed by those mythical stories.

So, one by one, she eliminated those that had nothing to do with wood magic and nature. She quickly combined the key points that Mona and her instructor told her in class and tried to come up with a keyword: "Rituals in the Life Realm. …?”

The moment he heard the words, Cyrus was stunned for a moment.

But immediately, he restrained the panic that he had not been able to completely control just now, and continued calmly: "Yes, that's right, this is our goal this time. According to the intelligence I just returned to the department, Those people probably want to reproduce some of the rituals that occurred in the First Era, so they attack wood magicians with high elemental affinity in various areas in large numbers. But there is one thing I don't understand. , whether they have joined or are still in the organization now, their activity concepts should be obsessed with the ancient magic of the Second Era. Why would the guy who planned all this think of delving into those who have been in the First Era? Ancient magic that has been eliminated by the current era..."
