Wizard's Journey

Chapter 699 Cappuccino

Cappuccino stared wide-eyed at Green, standing face to face as if he could actually see Green.

Beneath the robe of appearance, Grimm, holding a scroll of animal hide, looked at Cappuccino through the mask of truth. His smooth, fair skin, his developing, flat body, and his black hair tied in a ponytail, along with his large eyes, were curiously "looking" at him, as if he could truly sense him.

Could it be that she "saw" herself through the world's will talent, which a wizard apprentice cannot yet control?

Judging from her behavior, she must have vaguely sensed her own presence.

Green already knew that it wasn't just the Cloak of Appearance that provided concealment; the greatest enemy of any secret wizard was the World Guardian. Through the power of the world, the World Guardian could clearly perceive the composition of the world's interior, and Green's wizarding knowledge did not yet contain any ability to conceal his perception of the world.

Cappuccino almost opened her mouth, because from her vague innate sense, right in front of her, something she couldn't see was standing there "trembling," seemingly very afraid of her, but without any hostility.

The girl glanced back at her grandfather a few times, hesitated for a long time, and then gave up the idea of ​​telling him.

Was it a small creature that my grandfather summoned from another world?

If my maternal grandfather finds out, given his personality, he will definitely seize it, study it, dissect it, and then make it into a specimen. It will die, and the reason for its death will be because it "betrayed" it.

Finally, Cappuccino bypassed the area and stood next to the bookshelf beside Green, pretending to pick up a book. He whispered, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you. You must have been unintentionally summoned into this world by your grandfather. Don't be afraid. When I have the ability, I will definitely send you back to your original world."

Green was stunned. What on earth was this little girl thinking?

Imagine yourself as a homeless stray cat from another world with the ability to become invisible, pity yourself, love yourself, and sympathize with yourself.

After a long silence, Green ultimately chose to remain silent as well, watching the little girl, who was filled with joy, talking to herself.

"Hehe, you probably don't understand wizarding language, but I can sense that you mean me no harm. You must be a kind little creature who just accidentally got lost in the wizarding world. Don't worry, I'll think of something, and in a few days I'll..."

"Cappuccino, who are you talking to?"

The old wizard on the experimental table turned around and looked at the bookshelf in the distance with a puzzled expression.

Because it was an underground laboratory, the space was limited and there were no partitions. Cappuccino's constant muttering to himself drew the old wizard's attention.

"Ah! Ah... I wasn't with anyone. I'm studying here. Grandpa, please continue. My current goal is to raise my mental strength to thirty-five and increase the leverage of my lightning element to eight times!"

With that, the little girl grabbed two books about the elements and ran off in a mad dash.

The old wizard nodded in satisfaction upon seeing this and then lowered his head to continue his experiment.

……

Two days later.

The old wizard wasn't in the underground laboratory. The magic circle door creaked open, and Grimm, who was studying ancient wizarding script in front of a broken stone slab, looked up and saw Cappuccino tiptoeing in.

"Hehe, don't be afraid, it's me. Are you hungry? I've brought you some food!"

Cappuccino carried a large bag of things and placed it on the ground. First, he took out a large, bloody beef leg, put it on a plate, and pushed it towards Green. Green squatted down, staring at him with wide eyes, looking on expectantly.

After a while, there was no movement, and the girl shook her head.

"Don't eat raw meat? Are you not a carnivore, or do you simply not eat raw food?"

Cappuccino then took out a wooden lunchbox from behind him. When the lunchbox was opened, a fragrant aroma of food wafted out, though it looked slightly burnt.

The girl playfully stuck out her tongue and said shyly, "I made this myself, I don't know if it's to your liking."

After a while, there was still no movement. Cappuccino took out a third food from behind him. This time it was a large bowl of green vegetables, which were just randomly put into the bowl without any classification. They were obviously stolen from the kitchen and looked very fresh.

"You don't like it either?"

Cappuccino pouted, looking very sad. After glancing at her empty bag, which contained only a banana, an orange, a small handful of dried fruit, and six candies, she simply took everything out and pushed it in front of Green.

"That's all. If there's still nothing you like to eat, I'll think of something else."

Seemingly deeply wronged, the little girl squatted on the ground, her eyes red, as if she was heartbroken that her careful preparations and selfless efforts that morning had been in vain.

"Gah..."

Just then, a strange cry came from the laboratory. Cappuccino jumped up and excitedly saw that all the dried fruit and candy on the ground had disappeared!

It turned out that Green was speechless as he watched Cappuccino's performance. He couldn't understand what the little girl was thinking. She was so childish, yet he found it very interesting. So he simply used his spacetime connection talent to summon Hachi.

He covered Hachi's mouth, signaling it not to speak, and with a wave of his hand, Green quietly collected a few dried fruits and candies.

"Young Master, what are you doing? I was having a great time playing with Xiao Wan."

Xiao Ba reluctantly bit into a dried fruit and muttered something during their soul communication.

Green then pointed to Cappuccino outside the robe of appearance and transmitted his voice through his soul: "Go and have some fun with her for a few years. This child has good potential. Let's see if she can become my eldest disciple."

Ga! ?

Before Hachi could react, Green threw him out of the robe's protective range and into Cappuccino's field of vision, causing the excited Cappuccino to stare wide-eyed at Hachi in disbelief.

"Wow, Grandpa actually summoned a parrot that floated over! Luckily, I didn't tell Grandpa beforehand."

Urged on by Green, Xiao Ba reluctantly landed on Cappuccino's shoulder and was happily taken out of the lab to play by Cappuccino.

The naive little girl obviously did not use her World Will talent to perceive the anomaly ahead.

Green placed the broken stone slab inscribed with ancient wizarding script back in its place and murmured in a low voice, "Having Xiao Ba by her side to observe is enough. Maybe we should come here less often in the future."

With that thought in mind, Green quietly took a few witchcraft books that he hadn't read yet and left the underground laboratory.
