Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 1138 Aberdeel’s warnings and reminders
  Natalie's body suddenly tensed up. She subconsciously wanted to say something or ask something, but seeing the solemn and gloomy expression on Cyrus's face that she had never seen before, she forcibly suppressed other thoughts and simply said The gem in his hand was handed over to the other party.

After taking the gem and not caring about anything else, Cyrus quickly opened the [Analysis] magic circle to try to confirm his guess.

Could it be Aberdeel? Could it be the 'evil spirit' that finally killed Leah four years ago and left the former assistant of the Sage of Wood in the East District of Wind to rest in Veronica?

With strong nervousness and even stronger self-doubt, he quickly closed his eyes and began to focus on feeling the magical energy accumulated inside.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

Time passes by every minute,
  After a period of careful recall and comparison, he confirmed that he felt the familiar aura of power from the intoxicating situation that seemed to be able to quietly corrode one's will, and felt the weight and antiquity of the essence of that power.

"Aberdiel, what do you want to do?"

Without showing any signs of abnormality, he quickly suppressed the self-doubt he had shown when he noticed the abnormality. Cyrus once again lowered his face and asked coldly.

[So it’s you. How are you preparing this time? Are you confident that you can completely solve Veronica’s problem? 】

After several seconds, a very vague and ethereal sound came from the magic gem.

But even if the voice is so vague, the meaning conveyed into Cyrus's spiritual world is indeed so clear, so clear that even the condescension, the kind of teasing, and the kind of contempt contained in that vague response can be so clear. Gotta feel it.

"I can't promise anything, but if it can only be now, I will try my best to do it until I can't do anything. Please remember this!"

Feeling the deep teasing attitude that he was still relieved of, Cyrus clenched his fists hard, but in the end, he restrained his anger that was about to be uncontrollable, and simply showed his determination firmly.

[Very good, you are much more sensible than you were then. Come to my sealed place within three days, and I will wait there to verify your determination. 】

After receiving such a response that seemed to be the end of the exchange, Cyrus couldn't help but feel relieved in his heart. Then without any further hesitation, he conveyed his firm intention to the magic gem in his hand again.

[Finally, I would like to remind you that those who try to forge 'keys' also seem to be aware of the failure of imitations. Hide the little girl next to you. I can feel the 'quality' of the Wood Sage's assistant. A large part of it was inherited by her. 】

[By the way, if you are not sure, then I suggest you directly seek help from the ‘Sky Scholars’. If I remember correctly, they have a very powerful member who seems to be staying in the former jurisdiction of ‘New Night Grace’. 】

With a final reminder in a joking manner, Aberdeel said no more and immediately relied on his control over the authority of 'Sink' to cut off the connection between the magic gem and his conscious body.

Feeling that the chaotic atmosphere that seemed to silently drag people's souls in gradually weakened and finally disappeared, Cyrus finally relaxed completely.

[It seems that Aberdiel has indeed not changed his position, otherwise he would not have made such a trivial reminder. 】

After carefully confirming again whether the magic gem in his hand still had the original terrifying aura, Cyrus immediately regained his composure and put away the magic gem. At the same time, he responded and never dared to make a sound, but his eyes showed strong worry. To the anxious Natalie: "It's okay, the negative influence in the gem has been eliminated. Let's go back to the reception hall to report the matter. Someone will deal with it later."

Natalie nodded in response to Cyrus' answer. After confirming that the sage assistant of the West District of Fire really did not intend to say anything else, she immediately organized the words in her mind and worriedly reminded: "Don't we need to seal off the affected lake water and other related things first?"

"No need, since that guy has already promised that, there is no need to worry."

Cyrus answered firmly without hiding his true thoughts.

【That rascal…? 】

Natalie blinked in confusion, but in the end, she didn't ask anything.

She could vaguely guess from Cyrus's emotional state when he analyzed the magic gem before that the sage assistant probably knew the owner of the source of the abnormal aura in the gem, but because she didn't know what the abnormal aura and the alcohol symbolized. , and it is impossible to make any more guesses about this.

Recalling the choices her teacher had made in the face of such a major event, and comparing the emotions shown by Cyrus when he held the magic gem in his hand, Natalie followed up with the Fireman who had resumed his steps in front of him. The sage assistant of the West District firmly summoned up the courage to ask: "Then what happened here does not need to be immediately reported to other people who need to know about it as soon as possible?"

Cyrus glanced at Natalie with some surprise behind him, who was seriously proposing an idea, but her tone sounded suspicious and hesitant. Then he chuckled without concealing it: "The matter is not that urgent. I will wait until I leave the guild." Will do it.”

"Hmm...!" Natalie nodded in confusion at first, then stopped and whispered in confusion, "Leaving the guild?"

"Of course, since there has been polluted lake water here, who knows if those people are still nearby and continue to monitor this place."

Cyrus laughed again.

"I'm very sorry, and please don't take what I just said to heart..."

After being reminded like this, Natalie felt relieved and instantly felt ashamed of her previous suspicion and distrust. Without hesitation, Natalie immediately bowed and bowed, deeply apologizing.

"Yeah." Cyrus turned around, nodded, hesitated, and finally didn't say anything more. He just skipped the topic and suggested, "Let's go, hurry up."

"OK…!"

Seeing that Cyrus had turned around again and started walking, Natalie stopped wasting time and hurriedly followed.

Along the way, neither of them encountered anything else, and soon returned to the reception hall of the Adventurer's Guild smoothly.

"Don't rush over to find today's witnesses. There are still a lot of people gathered near the counter. It's hard to guarantee that there won't be anyone tipping off people there."

[Space Teleportation] As soon as the strong light of magic fell, Cyrus reached out to stop Natalie, who was following her in the magic circle, and lowered his voice to remind...
