c2798: 2799: Mutual Speculation (2)

Adanis replied indifferently: "None of your concern."

The Wise Sovereign: "Alright then, the answer Her Majesty seeks is... I do not know."

Adanis frowned, "What do you mean? Are you threatening me?"

The Wise Sovereign shrugged, looking innocent as he said, "I think Her Excellency the Goddess misunderstood my meaning. What I meant was that Her Heart’s Reflection is unable to see this wizard. Which means, he hasn’t given any supposed messages."

Adanis was stunned for a moment before she realized what the Wise Sovereign meant, "Her Heart’s Reflection can’t see this wizard?"

The Wise Sovereign nodded.

Adanis murmured softly, "That’s impossible. She was born of the Mirror Domain, a power bestowed by the Mirror Domain. How could she not see through a human wizard?"

The Wise Sovereign said, "That I do not know. Perhaps this wizard has an unusual background?"

Adanis raised her head and stared directly at the Wise Sovereign, "What do you know?"

The Wise Sovereign was about to speak when Adanis interrupted, "Don’t brush me off. For others, you can talk a lot of nonsense, but when it comes to him, don’t tell me you can’t even come up with any nonsense?"

The Wise Sovereign replied, "For others, I can speculate, paired with given messages as evidence, so I can more or less say something. But with him, he’s a very astute lad, everything he does is watertight. Plus, there are no given messages, so my understanding of him is indeed very limited."

Adanis sneered, "His name, his identity, his abilities, you know nothing?"

The Wise Sovereign said, "Let’s not mention that for now. I thought Her Excellency the Goddess, caring so much about him, would already know his identity."

Adanis raised an eyebrow and said nothing.

"Then I’m curious. If Her Excellency doesn’t know who he is, why pay so much attention to him?"

Adanis said coldly, "I said it has nothing to do with you. All you need to do is tell me all the information about him. You don’t need to worry about anything else."

The Wise Sovereign said, "As for him... I don’t know much information at all."

"All I know is that he might be an Illusionist Wizard or a Space Mage, has some alchemical talents, and as for a name, they call him ’Gold’ within their team."

Adanis asked, "Other information? Why is he here? What special traits does he have?"

Adanis’s inquiry actually provided a lot of intelligence to the Wise Sovereign, but it only made the Wise Sovereign even more puzzled.

He had previously mentioned only the main intelligence about Angel, deliberately concealing his name, trying to figure out what aspect of Angel Adanis most cared about.

As a result, Adanis seemed unclear and unconcerned about Angel’s affiliations, abilities, or even his name.

Still, Adanis proactively asked the Wise Sovereign about Angel’s purpose and his special traits.

This meant that Adanis could be said to know—almost nothing about Angel.

The Wise Sovereign found the matter increasingly strange. Previously, he thought Adanis knew something about Angel, but it now appeared that Angel hadn’t lied; he knew almost nothing about Adanis, and Adanis had never met Angel. This was puzzling, as if Adanis knew nothing about Angel, why was she so particularly attentive, inexplicably hostile, and even murderous towards him?

Where is the breakthrough point for solving this suspicion?

While the Wise Sovereign kept an unchanged expression dealing with Adanis, countless streams of information swirled in his Mind Space, trying to identify any potential doubts between Angel and Adanis.

"His purpose? They all say this was an unexpected adventure, meaning there was no purpose, just pure exploration."

Adanis said, "Do you believe that nonsense? Even the descendants of Noah came, and it’s just pure exploration?"

The Wise Sovereign said, "I believe because my appraisal shows they did not lie. As for the descendants of Noah, they were actually a temporary addition to the team; there wasn’t any descendant of Noah in the original group."

"Moreover, his special abilities... I haven’t discovered any yet, but his illusion technique is interesting and has a unique flavor."

The Wise Sovereign was puzzled, and in fact, Adanis was as perplexed as he was.

According to the agreement, the Wise Sovereign would not deceive her on these issues. This meant that what the Wise Sovereign said was true.

Even though the Wise Sovereign used to engage in verbal games, wandering off the topic and mentioning inconsequential things, he did not deliberately obscure the focus when talking about Angel’s purpose.

So, did Angel really come here just to explore?

But if he had no purpose, why would Olao be so concerned about him?

Also, even that woman, Laplace, couldn’t see Angel’s Heart’s Reflection, which was also very strange.

This indicated that it was impossible for him to be a wizard without a story.

Either he deceived the Wise Sovereign, or Olao saw the hidden story within him.

While Adanis pondered, the focus within the Wise Sovereign’s thoughts converged on an emblem.

This emblem had an outer pattern filled with mysterious hidden meanings, somewhat similar to a true name mark, and the main body of the emblem was a circular divided diagram, with a man and a woman on each side.

This was the so-called Mark of the Mirror Demon God.

And the woman on the mark was Adanis, while the hat-wearing man...was another entity in the remaining land.

The Wise Sovereign knew him too, and knew he had always stayed in the remaining land. But in the Wise Sovereign’s millennium-long memory, his appearances could be counted on one hand.

And his last conversation with him was still thousands of years ago.

Currently, the only one maintaining a connection with the Wise Sovereign was Adanis.

As for this individual, it was as if he had become invisible.

But the Wise Sovereign knew well that he was actually the most orthodox Guide left behind by Augustine.

Adanis was born later on, and she hadn’t even seen the real persons of Augustine and Margaret.

However, though Adanis was born later, she possessed an unparalleled force stronger than that of ’him.’ In fact, the Wise Sovereign could vaguely guess that Adanis might have already been able to leave the remaining land.

This meant that she was now an absolutely independent being, no longer confined to the Underground Aqueduct.

But she did not leave, instead always remaining in the remaining land.

The Wise Sovereign didn’t know why but speculated it might be related to ’him.’

So, could her focus on Angel this time also be related to ’his’ attitude?
