While Angel was communicating with the two Elemental Creatures, the others remained silent, quietly listening to their conversation.
The more they listened, the more peculiar it felt to them.
From their dialogue, they could piece together a rough storyline: A fire element-loving traveler frog and a water element bobcat drying gems by the shore got into a fight for some reason, and ultimately their Elemental Cores shattered, luckily encountered by Angel.
At first glance, this seemed normal, but upon reflection, it appeared somewhat off.
If such a storyline involved humans instead of Elemental Creatures, it would indeed be quite typical because similar occurrences are ubiquitous in the human world.
But for it to happen in the world of Elemental Creatures is a bit strange. Wild Elemental Creatures are incredibly rare in the Wizards’ Realm; it’s very difficult for a wizard to encounter one, yet two Elemental Creatures with completely different Attributes happened to meet and fought over trivial matters.
It gives one the illusion that Elemental Creatures are as abundant in the wild as field mice on a farm.
Moreover, the bobcat mentioned the "Rain Forest," and Angel referred to "Mr. Magu and Mr. Akimo," suggesting connections to Transcendent forces or lives, yet they’ve never heard such names in the Wizards’ Realm.
They even secretly wondered if Angel was truly in an Otherworld.
But Angel had previously denied this. Besides, if Angel were in an Otherworld, he wouldn’t be able to log into the Wilderness of Dreams, so this doubt was completely dispelled.
Until now, they haven’t been able to extract much useful information from the conversation, but they have a feeling that many secrets lie between Angel and these two Elemental Creatures.
While they silently speculated, Angel had nearly finished communicating with the two Elemental Creatures.
After getting the traveler frog and the bobcat’s nod, he brought them in front of everyone.
"I have already talked to them, and they will do their best to cooperate with your research," Angel said, looking at Dumatin: "However, there is a prerequisite: Any research needs to first ask for their consent."
Dumatin smiled at the two little creatures, the corners of his lips curling: "Naturally."
Facing Dumatin’s smile, the bobcat felt vaguely uneasy, while the traveler frog directly burrowed fearfully into Angel’s sleeve. Under Angel’s reassurance, the traveler frog calmed its frightened gaze.
"Since you’re going to cooperate with Dumatin’s research, you’d better first introduce yourselves, at least have a code name," Angel said, pointing first at the traveler frog: "This traveler frog can’t speak for the time being, so let’s set aside the name and refer to it by its scholarly name."
After a pause, Angel looked towards the bobcat.
The bobcat obediently stepped forward, nodding human-like: "I was born in the rain, just call me Rainy Bobcat."
From the bobcat’s cunning expression, everyone could guess that the name Rainy Bobcat wasn’t its real name, but a code name chosen according to Angel’s instruction.
However, despite being a mere code name, it mentioned, "I was born in the rain" upfront.
After finishing, the bobcat didn’t feel there was any issue. When the World’s Harmony arrives, it rains lightly in the Rain Forest, and the rain is filled with terrifying amounts of Water Elemental Energy, coaxing its birth. It prefixes ’Rain’ to its code name prefix mainly because there aren’t any Water Elemental Creatures from the Rain Forest here, allowing it to take advantage... In the Rain Forest, those who bear the "Rain" surname are all notable strong beings.
However, the bobcat is unaware that its little scheme unconsciously revealed a lot of information to others.
Lord Rhein, Ironclad Granny, and others, having lived for an incredibly long time, knew many historical secrets.
According to them, historical records in the Wizards’ Realm did indeed record cases of Water System creatures being born from rain.
For instance, in one case, when a certain wizard was refining the Witchcraft Garden, the rule infused by the World Will was the Law of Water. When the Water System Garden was created, it started to rain, and due to the involvement of Water System Laws, the rain was incredibly rich in Water Elemental Energy, laying the foundation for the birth of Water System creatures in the rain.
There are several similar cases, but they all involve numerous coincidences of Karma.
Normal rain would never give birth to a Water System creature.
At least, within nearly a thousand years, they’d never heard of any place where rain could birth Water System creatures.
"You were born in the rain? That’s really unusual," Dumatin said with a smiling face: "The rain you mentioned should not be ordinary rain, right?"
The bobcat unwittingly answered: "Of course, it’s not ordinary rain; it’s the one produced by the World’s Harmony, occurring only once every many years."
Except for Angel, the eyes of the others glimmered.
Dumatin: "Every many years? Seems like this kind of rain is cyclical... That’s quite remarkable..."
The bobcat was somewhat puzzled, why would he say it’s quite remarkable?
Dumatin continued: "What exactly is this World’s Harmony you mentioned?"
The bobcat instinctively replied: "The World’s Harmony is just as it sounds; every tidal year it will..."
Before completing the sentence, the bobcat suddenly sensed something was wrong; apart from Angel, everyone else looked at it with deep inquiry.
The bobcat wasn’t dumb; it only took a moment to understand: "You don’t know about the World’s Harmony?"
Dumatin candidly admitted: "This is my first time hearing about it; could you enlighten me?"
The bobcat didn’t answer but turned its head to Angel. Angel had clearly stated that he knew the sage of the Malaya Ice Mountain, Akimo, and also knew the sage of the Region of Fire, Magu, indicating that Angel definitely knew various things about the Tidal World; however, this group seemed completely unaware of the Tidal World...
The bobcat did not speak but rather glanced at Angel hesitantly.
Angel’s eyes glimmered as he gave it a gentle nod.
The bobcat, though inexperienced with the world, was very shrewd, with one gesture from Angel, and it already confirmed its speculation.
Angel was indicating that this group was indeed not beings from the Tidal World. They might have come from a Distant World, arriving in the same dream world through Enter Dream. Although the bobcat found this enter-dreaming speculation quite far-fetched, the existence of a dream world itself defies reality, so it didn’t need to contemplate logic further.
With such a guess, this group should have had no real contact with the Tidal World.
Only Angel knows the Tidal World, and he is also currently in the Tidal World.
Moreover, from their discourse, the bobcat realized one thing, Angel has not reciprocated the information regarding the Tidal World with them.
The bobcat did not know why Angel wanted to keep it concealed, nor was it aware if it should continue to answer Dumatin’s questions.
This broad issue had already surpassed the bobcat’s understanding; it tried to seek assistance from Angel, but the latter remained silent.
Under such circumstances, the bobcat remained silent. In its subconscious, it wasn’t willing to divulge information about the Tidal World to existences from another world.
