Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 682 Temporary Decision

"It seems like I asked a redundant question. Well, I will convey your true position to Blair."

Glancing coldly at the cornerstone of 'hypocrisy' on the sofa again, Alina responded quickly, and at the same time, she also took out the matching envelope and stationery again, ready to start writing a letter.

"Really, I think you can think about it seriously. Even if the final result is false, it will be better than your current aloof attitude."

"Okay, it's time for me to leave. I'm afraid if I don't leave, you will really write a letter to complain to the Chairman."

After a deliberate pause, Inzat immediately seized the moment when Alina was about to respond, stood up first and bent down to salute.

Watching the figure of this 'hypocritical' cornerstone disappear completely in the bright light caused by the [space teleportation] magic, Alina, who had maintained a distant expression on her face, couldn't help but fell into a silence called doubt...

……

At night, Randall, in the house rented by Ives in Randall,

"Master, the hot water is ready. Is there anything else I can do for you?"

When Ives temporarily stopped reading, the housekeeper Wesley, who was counting the time to return from the second floor of the house, immediately stepped forward and bent down to ask his little master,
  "It's not necessary for now, thank you for your hard work."

Avis nodded slightly and politely declined.

He was about to get back into reading books, but at this time, he keenly noticed the fireplace that was still burning with magic in the corner of the living room. Then he raised his head again and added with a smile: "I will go there soon. Rest and put out the fireplace first."

"Yes, sir."

Wesley was hesitant to speak for a while, but in the end he didn't say much. He walked to the burning fireplace in the living room and directly used the right dispelling magic to instantly eliminate the fire magic attached to the fireplace.

Feeling the sudden coldness in the room, Avis couldn't help but cheer up again and spurred himself to speed up the progress of checking the information.

About half an hour later, Ives silently closed the book in his hand, took the notes he had made at night on the field of purification and dispersion, and went to the bedroom on the second floor, intending to wash up and go to bed.

But not long after he put down the design plans and reading experience, he accidentally glanced back at the notes on the table and suddenly recalled something that he had deliberately avoided before and did not delve into.

Why did Senior Suzuki Lan suddenly ask him to conceive a large-scale purification and dispersion ritual magic?
  Although this can be explained by reasons such as training his ability and enhancing his reading, is it a bit unkind to assign this task the day before the ranking match is about to come?
  Recalling the senior's previous attitude when dealing with similar matters, he thought that the senior had encountered some difficulties, but he was not so sure.

And, most importantly, through tonight's conception and reading, he discovered that the type of magic that the senior needed was not something a magician of his level could accomplish.

Although this does not mean that the senior gave completely over-the-top mission requirements, it allowed him to design it accurately enough in just one night based on his own ability. Ritual magic that is perfect enough is really too difficult...

Isn't this matter urgent?
  He subconsciously overturned his previous guess.

But the next moment, he felt uncontrollably confused.

Because, he quickly confirmed the time limit given by the senior in the letter, 'before the ranking competition starts tomorrow'.

So if the matter wasn't urgent, why did she add this qualification?
  The more Ives thought about it, the more confused he became. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was a huge secret behind such a simple task...

dong dong dong~
  Just as his thoughts slowly dispersed, there was an extremely restrained knock on the door behind him. "occur…"

Avis woke up instantly and subconsciously wanted to ask the housekeeper outside the door why he knocked.

But the next moment, when he recalled what he wanted to do in the first place, he couldn't help but smile stiffly. He suppressed the embarrassment that surged into his heart, and turned back to his butler and said, "Sorry, I have to trouble you once."

"This is what I should do, Master."

Wesley didn't say anything extra. He bowed in a standard manner again, and then returned to the bathroom of the house without any delay to readjust the water temperature.

At this time, the crescent moon outside the window was emitting a hazy light, peaceful and quiet, and seemed no different from usual.

But Wesley, who was rearranging his magic to adjust the indoor temperature, couldn't help but stop what he was doing, looked at the curved silver hook outside the window with a solemn expression, and fell into deep thought for a moment...

……

At the same time, on the outskirts of Sylph City, in Alina's bedroom,

Alina, who had just fallen asleep, suddenly opened her eyes, turned over and sat up, subconsciously looking at the silver crescent moon outside the window.

I saw that the night was quiet and quiet, the crescent moon outside the window was bright and clear, the moon phase was normal, the color was normal, the size was normal, and the halo it emitted was also normal.

Everything is so orderly.

But it was this normal appearance with no problems that made her suddenly wake up even more alert.

Because, the moment she woke up, she had passed the 'realization of life' test and successfully established a connection with the essential laws of this world, and she clearly felt the abnormality of the laws at that moment.

Without any hesitation, Alina hurriedly got out of bed, quickly changed her clothes for going out, and directly turned on the [Space Teleportation] magic to go to the central library.

After taking a look around her surroundings and confirming that no one was around, she hurried to the top floor of the library, trying to confirm the safety of her mentor as soon as possible and find him to verify her guess.

However, when she arrived at the forbidden magic area on the top floor of the library, and just arrived at the special area where she could briefly meet her mentor, she discovered that her attempt to gather the elements of time magic had not received the response she deserved.

Without wasting time to panic or panic, Alina immediately calmed down and began to feel the seal on her right shoulder. She saw that the outermost layer of stasis magic applied by her mentor did not appear abnormal. Only then did she feel completely relieved. She calmly sat down on the seat away from the meeting place and began to wait for the late but surely coming feedback.

Tick ​​tock, tick tock, tick tock~

Time passed minute by minute, and after Alina had silently counted an unknown number of minutes, there was finally a text composed of space magic elements on the ground in that area of ​​chaotic space and time:
  [I'm fine, please don't worry.

Sorry, I just went to visit an old friend.

Regarding the New Night's Grace, you can directly ask the Chaos Hermit Monk. He knows more about it than I do and is more qualified to answer your questions. 】
