Translator: 549690339
Noland Lee calmly faced the Cursed Angel in front of him, and at the same time, called out in his heart:
“Denise.”
“Here, I’m reading a book in your study room. What’s up?”
Noland Lee said in his heart:
“Do you know the origin of the Aberrations? Is there any exact statement in the Ulnas Circle?”
“No. The Alchemy Cathedral has always forbidden the Elemental Judgement from researching Aberrations, so the Ulnas Circle has no clue about the origin of Aberrations. However, there are several speculations, but I think you must have heard of them. They are either the curse on the Alchemists who abused the victims of the Golden Dynasty, or the rumor that Aberrations originally slept underground and were disturbed by the Golden Dynasty. Why do you suddenly ask about this?”
Noland Lee thought for a moment and asked:
“So, does the Ulnas Circle not think that Aberrations are from extraterrestrial space pollution?”
“It’s hard to say whether it’s extraterrestrial space pollution or not.” Denise thought for a moment and said:
“Only when the Magic Research Institute established by the Wizard Advancement Association has thoroughly researched the origin of Aberrations, the truth will be revealed. But as you know, the Elemental Judgement has been restrained by the Alchemy Cathedral for so many years, and has never been able to officially start the traceability work on Aberrations.”
Noland Lee nodded secretly:
“Well, I get it. It’s nothing, Denise, I just found some materials underground and I’m sorting out the clues. You go on reading. I’ll call you when I need help. By the way, did anyone come looking for me today?”
“Yes. There was a woman named Cindy who came to visit you. She came to invite you and the Golden Merchant’s Sword to explore the Unclaimed Corridor together. I had your housekeeper politely refuse her.”
“Alright, I got it.”
“Be careful, I’ll be waiting for you to come back.”
Noland Lee cut off the soul-level induction.
He pondered for a few seconds, then picked up the pen and wrote a few lines on the blank paper.
The meaning of these lines was the same, all saying “hello.” However, Noland Lee used different languages. From top to bottom, the languages used in these characters were: modern Tatis language, ancient Tatis language, the language of the Golden Federation, the language of the Golden Dynasty, and Undead Runes.
Noland Lee stood the notebook up, showing the “hello” written in different languages.
The Cursed Angel in front of him seemed to be extremely timid, making a hiding action at the slightest movement.
Noland Lee held the notebook, waiting for nearly five seconds before the other party put down their arm, looking timidly at the characters on the notebook.
The Cursed Angel’s big eyes widened, dark and glossy, as if trying hard to understand the meaning of the characters.
Noland Lee thought the other party was illiterate, but suddenly found that the pen in his hand had slipped from his right hand’s control.
Noland Lee raised his eyebrows, knowing that it was the Cursed Angel in front of him who was manipulating his pen.
As if held by an invisible hand, the pen flew to the front of the notebook and wrote a line of crooked characters:
“You..hello..”
Noland Lee glanced at it, and the line was written in the language of the Golden Dynasty.
This could be a problem.
Noland Lee could only write this language but not read it, so communicating with it might be a bit troublesome.
Noland Lee reached out to hold the pen in the air, causing the Cursed Angel to hug its head again.
But this time, the Cursed Angel quickly lowered its arms, and the fearful expression in its eyes was not as strong as before.
Noland Lee wrote a few more lines on the notebook and showed them to the other party:
“I won’t hurt you. Do you need help?”
The pen in his hand slipped out of control again and wrote in the notebook:
“I don’t know…”
I don’t know?…Noland Lee felt a bit confused.
What does “I don’t know” mean?
Don’t know what?
Don’t know if they need help or not?
For a moment, Noland Lee didn’t quite understand what the Cursed Angel was trying to express.
He thought for a moment, recalling the image of the other party hugging its head at the slightest provocation.
Noland Lee took the pen and wrote another line:
“Are you being bullied?”
This time, the Cursed Angel did not manipulate the pen to write.
It moved its head up and down towards Noland Lee, and two lines of crystal-clear tears flowed from its two big black eyes.
A sob full of grievances echoed in the abandoned warehouse.
The Cursed Angel covered its face with its palm and cried in front of Noland Lee.
“Uuuu…”
Noland Lee was surprised.
This was the first time he had seen such a vulnerable extraterrestrial space pollution product. How was this Cursed Angel different from the corrupt soldiers and black tentacles he had seen before…
Noland Lee clenched the pen and wrote a line on the notebook again, then showed it to the other party:
“Who is bullying you?”
The Cursed Angel barely stopped crying, gasping for air with a sniffle.
It glanced at the characters on the notebook, then manipulated Noland Lee’s pen to write:
“There are many bad guys bullying me. A bad crow, a scythe-headed bad guy, a large group of strange humans.”
Bad crow…scythehead…
Could this bad crow be Samuelson?
Noland Lee was slightly startled.
Then who was the “scythehead”?
Hiss… Could it be the Soul-stealing Wizard?
Noland Lee felt that he had grasped some important clues, and called out to the Companion Witch in his heart again:
“Denise.”
“Here, what’s up?”
“Do you know any distinguishing features of the Soul-stealing Wizard?” Noland asked.
“Let me think… I think I’ve read a book in the Academy before, which introduced the origin of Annihilating Wizard Level Sorcerer Criminals…”
Denise recalled as she said:
“I remember there was an illustration of the Soul-stealing Overlord in the book, with blue-ish skin, a semi-transparent body, wearing a large cloak, and a curved scythe-shaped head. The book says that all wizards who follow the Soul-stealing Overlord will be granted extraordinary bodies that match the Soul-stealing Magic. So I think the Soul-stealing Wizard should look similar to the Soul-stealing Overlord.”
