"Dear Loren, what on earth do you think?"

In the pure white spirit hall, the young man holding his cheeks and sitting cross legged on the ground looked depressed and flattened his mouth, looked at the busy back of the black haired wizard, and some strange luster was shining in his scarlet eyes.

"Seriously, put aside everything else first. Don't you think what the middle-aged old man with ulterior motives said is very reasonable - you don't have to bet all your bets on a prince and do what you're best at in the safest place?"

"What's more, you just found a relic of the Dragon Kingdom... Since even niederhogg can survive, it shows that there are many undiscovered corners in the glacier Wasteland - buried heritage, ancient weapons, unheard of knowledge..."

"Lemantes or other evil gods... Their power has been weakened for hundreds of years. Even if they find you, they can't do what to you... What's more, you have lovely Asriel, fake miss and loyal friends. Countless adventures are waiting for you!"

"What makes you willing to put down all this and go to the saxophone empire in the south? Can you say..."

"Beyond the nine pointed star Holy Grail... The 'valve' used by the Dragon kingdom to create the 'Holy Cross' is not in the glacial wasteland, but in the southern Saxophone Empire?"

The black haired wizard who lifted up the corner of his mouth slightly turned his cheek and glanced at Asriel with a frozen expression behind him: "I said... 'dear' Asriel, this is what you especially want to know, right?"

"How can I doubt the lovely Asriel so much? I'm thinking of you!"

For a moment, the scarlet eyes were innocent like two bright rubies, and the tears were whirling. The young man looked wronged and looked sad.

Of course, for today's black haired wizard, he is too lazy to roll his eyes.

The reason why I didn't stay in the fortress of duanjie mountain is that I have no need to betray Brandon at all. After experiencing the turmoil in the north, Brandon de saleon's status and reputation in the Empire have not completely changed, but there will definitely be many different voices.

Status, strength, power, wealth... Are all kinds of power; Ernst is right. Staying with Brandon will certainly participate in the struggle for power; But this is also the most convenient and fastest way to usurp power.

Even for the people around you, you can't give up - whether it's Isaac who got the "last knowledge" of the Dragon kingdom or ayin who is moving forward on the road of alchemy... Their research needs a lot of money and a lot of assistance that they can't get.

After returning to the fortress of duanjie mountain, Loren has learned about her and Conrad from the little wizard... Although it is only possible, the other party may not have the intention of wooing Ayn when they woo themselves.

As long as anyone can understand them a little, it is not difficult to find the great value they contain.

Even if it's just to prevent them from being used by others, especially people like corona and connord, and even Alto Bellini, I can't stop.

"Well... Since it was Loren's decision, poor Asriel had to agree." the blonde looked helpless, held his pale and bloodless cheek with his right hand, and slipped a light charming smile around his mouth:

"No way, who makes Loren Asriel's best friend?"

"But then again... What are you doing?"

The scarlet eyes blinked suspiciously and looked at the countless parchment volumes spread out by the black haired wizard sitting there, which were placed in a strange spiral shape beside him.

It's not so much a book, but more like the "concretization" of Loren's own memory - with the help of Asriel, the spiritual palace of the black haired wizard has become closer and closer to the "dream world". You can quickly read the memory in your mind by "turning the book".

"It's very simple, just like before." he threw a scroll aside, and the black haired wizard answered without looking back:

"I also want to create a high-level magic spell."

"I still don't understand. What's the point of doing this." the blonde shook his head and looked very confused: "don't you already have a powerful spell like 'Turin fire'?"

Shrugging his shoulders, Loren sighed softly: "yes... As the most direct means of attack, 'Turin fire' and even 'force impact' are enough and very practical."

"However, this is only for 'ordinary' enemies - they can be easily broken in front of evil gods and even evil gods' apostles; similarly... Enemies with secret silver weapons can do this."

"Powerful and direct means are the advantages of this spell, and the disadvantages of this spell are that it is easy to crack and dodge."

The dark haired wizard with a calm face thought deeply and calmly said, "I hate facing unexpected things very much, so since I will definitely encounter this enemy in the future, there must be cards that can limit them."

Asriel blinked and tilted his head: "so..."

"I found that my previous thinking was limited by 'something'... The final principle of the magic spell is to deceive the material world by relying on the power of emptiness, so why do I have to reflect it in the most direct way?"

Loren, who turned around, stunned Asriel, with a very cunning smile on his face:

"Think about it, since there can be walls, waves, flames and explosions out of nothing..."

"Then it should be possible to refract light, sense reversal and create hallucinations."

"By analogy, it can even distort the laws within a certain range, so that the earth can melt, the shadow can become an entity, and the water can burn..."

"Even setting new rules... Like games, guessing boxing, wooden people, blackjack... Is not impossible, is it?"

Without noticing Asriel's expression, Loren calmly said, "under such distorted rules, I can take advantage of those who fully know the rules... Even if the other party can break through by force, I won't be forced into a corner like last time and can only run for my life in a hurry..."

"Of course, it's just an immature idea. If I want to finish it, I can't just rely on myself - I've mentioned it to Isaac and he's very interested... So I also want to ask you, isn't it... Um, Asriel?"

Picking his eyebrows, Lauren looked at the suddenly stunned teenager: "what's the matter?"

"Hey... Uh, ah, ah, nothing, nothing!"

As if he suddenly woke up, Asriel shook his little hand desperately, and a flattering smile hung on his face: "Asriel will never shirk anything that can help Loren."

"Really?" Lauren looked incredulous.

"Really!" the young man nodded fiercely, afraid that he would doubt it.

Something's wrong, very wrong

In the past, Asriel would never show such an obvious expression of gaffe even if he was surprised... Even Ariel, his expression is more like a fake than now.

In other words... He just remembered something that impressed him so much that he became like this?

Is it

The silent black haired wizard deliberately pretended not to be aware of the other party's abnormality, prepared to cover up the past and continue to look for knowledge that can be used for reference from his own memory.

The blonde boy who knew his gaffe didn't ask for trouble. He continued to look at the black haired wizard like he just did, and his mouth was still with a cunning smile.

It's like... I've seen through Lauren's "careful thinking", and I'm just unwilling to say it on purpose.

"When is it now?"

"Well... It seems midnight?" Asriel shrugged.

"I'm not asking about the weather," Lauren said calmly without raising his head.

The blonde pouted: "if you start from the blood skeleton Valley... It's about the end of the month."

"Really, is it the end of the month?" Lauren said to himself:

"Winter is almost over."
