Chapter 1259 Graya's Disappearance
At the table, Angel and Sanders ate in silence.
According to the custom of traditional nobles, when eating knife food and soup food, there is a rule of not talking while eating to avoid embarrassment caused by spilling food juice.
And the staple food of this meal is soup. When they ate, they were basically silent.
Angel ate very well. Although there was no magic food-level meal, butler Good knew his appetite too well. From appetizers to staple food, from thick soup to cakes, everything made him hungry. More importantly, everyone was doing their own thing during the meal, and no one paid too much attention to his eating.
When tea and desserts were served, conversations gradually appeared on the table.
Basically, Sanders was explaining to butler Good about the affairs during this period and some future arrangements.
Angel did not interrupt, and continued to eat the milky dessert after the meal. When he was eating, he suddenly felt a pair of eyes looking at him closely.
He looked up and saw a little head secretly poking out from the curtain of the restaurant door.
Although he was wearing a mask and robe, Angel recognized his identity as Whippetton from the figure of the child.
Whippetton secretly looked at Angel at this time.
Angel made a "come here" gesture to Whippetton, and Whippetton hesitated. According to the dining etiquette of Fantasy Island, he could not go in at this time.
But it was Master Pat who asked him to go in... Whippetton remembered what his grandfather said to him. Lord Sanders might not agree to let him stay in Fantasy Island, but he could try to open the pass from Master Pat.
In the end, Whippetton still walked into the restaurant shyly.
The movement here attracted Sanders' attention, and he looked over. Butler Good secretly said in his heart that it was not good, and was thinking about how to remind Whippetton to leave, but the next second, Sanders retracted his gaze and continued to explain the matter to Good as if nothing had happened.
Butler Good watched Whippedon walk to Angell and seemed to be talking to Angell. The atmosphere of the conversation seemed very harmonious, so he was relieved.
On the other side, Angell handed over a cup of milk tea: "Why, you just kept looking at me, do you want a cup too?"
Angell remembered that Butler Good had said intentionally or unintentionally that Whippedon's IQ and EQ were low, his mental age was no different from what he showed, and his taste was no different, so he also liked to eat food with milk flavor.
Butler Good himself meant that Whippedon would not tell Angell about his love of dairy products as a joke, because it was normal for him.
Whippedon waved his hand quickly. Stepping into the restaurant itself was already a violation of etiquette, and enjoying the food on the host's table was even more wrong.
"What do you want?" Angell asked puzzledly.
Whippeton shook his head and said in a somewhat depressed tone: "Master Pat, what I told you last time... Is there any news?"
"Last time?" Angell raised his eyebrows: "The story of Peter Pan?"
"That counts, but I mean the matter of Anada." Whippeton's voice was filled with deep worry: "Captain Neboya sent another message before, and Anada has not yet appeared. I wonder if Master Pat has met her this time when he went out?"
When he was assigned to guard the door before, he heard that Angell and Sanders were going to leave again soon. That's why Whippeton was anxious and secretly signaled Angell with his eyes.
"Oh, it's this matter." Angell remembered that he did promise Whippeton last time that if he saw Anada outside, he would tell him: "It's a pity that I went to the abyss this time and didn't see her..."
Angel paused when he said this.
Because, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through his mind. When Angel was doubtful, a hunched figure appeared in front of him. It was a white-haired old lady walking alone. It was the one he saw in Shepherd City not long ago.
Why did he suddenly think of that old lady when he talked about Anada?
Angel was a little confused. In his impression, Anada was a sexy beauty, and her hotness was even more intense than Nausicaa. But the old lady, with white hair, wrinkles, and loose skin, had no resemblance to Anada.
But Angel inexplicably, subconsciously equated these two completely different people.
Recalling the lingering familiarity of the old lady, Angel frowned and made a retrospective profile in his heart.
In his mind, it seemed that a time clock wheel appeared, and under the clock wheel, stood a white-haired old lady with her hands folded.
Suddenly, the clock reversed.
With the ticking of the clock, the old lady was getting younger at a very fast speed, as if her youth was flowing backwards. The hunched figure slowly straightened, the slightly fat waist slowly shrank, the wrinkled skin was straightened and tightened, and the white hair returned to sexy big waves.
When the clock rang.
Time seemed to go back sixty years, and an old man turned into a beautiful woman in her prime.
When he saw the woman's appearance clearly, Angel was stunned for a moment. After his appearance went back this time, the old lady's appearance when she was young was 90% similar to Anada!
90% is already very high, because there will definitely be unknown variables in the change of time. Considering the variables, the old lady is almost certainly Anada!
No wonder I felt a sense of familiarity when I saw her before.
This familiarity is not too strong, not like a close friend.
It turns out that she is Anada!
Although Anada is not a one-time encounter for Angel, he has at least met her several times. But after all, she is still a familiar stranger. He has only three impressions of Anada: thief, beauty, and strong.
Angel thought carefully, Anada became like this, probably because she traded her youth with Zslade in exchange for the opportunity to enter the wizarding world. He didn't know what the final result would be? Success or failure.
When Angel was a little dazed, Whibiton had already lowered his head in disappointment and said disappointedly: "Then I will go out first."
"Wait." Angel suddenly stopped.
Whibiton looked over in confusion, and Angel thought for a moment: "I haven't officially met Anada, but I may know where she is."
Whitbiton's eyes suddenly lit up.
...
After a while, Angell and Sanders left the Magic Island. Halfway through, Sanders asked, "What did you show him just now was the image of the old man in Shepherd City?"
Angel simply told the story, and finally said with some emotion, "I didn't expect that she was the childhood sweetheart of Whitbiton. Teacher, if she really traded the Cold Night Potion from Lord Zislade, can she become a superhuman?"
Sanders: "If her mental power value reaches more than 8 points, there is a chance, but the chance is still slim. Even if she really becomes a superhuman, if she doesn't make up for the loss of her physical body, she won't make much progress in this life."
For Angell, if he wants to make up for the loss of his physical body, or even to prolong his life, he can just make potions or find someone to buy potions. This is because he has a rich background. But the wizarding world is more of the bottom-level people. Like ordinary people, it is very, very difficult for them to climb to a higher level. The class division is very serious, and the tilt and plunder of resources rarely fall into the hands of bottom-level apprentices.
Therefore, even if Anaida really becomes a transcendent, it is extremely difficult to obtain resources to replenish her body. If she cannot be replenished in a short period of time, her life will soon die.
"However, if she really becomes a transcendent, Zislade should take her under his management." Sanders paused: "This is the path he chose, and he will definitely be responsible for the impact in the future."
They didn't talk much about Anaida, after all, she was an outsider. After a few simple chats, they talked about another thing.
Greya's disappearance.
The last time he returned to the Magic Island, Angel noticed that the magic hut by the lake was still there, but Greya had left. According to Butler Good, Greya went into seclusion for a period of time after Angel returned to the Old Earth Continent in order to consolidate the new creation method.
As soon as she came out of seclusion, she left the Magic Island. Butler Good didn't know where she went, but it seemed that someone sent a message to her and she left.
Angel originally thought that Greya still needed Sanders' help to find her body, and with her current strength, she would not be away for too long. He just needed Greya's help to check on Toby's situation when he came back this time. Unexpectedly, Greya still did not come back.
"Where will Lady Greya go?" Angel wondered.
Sanders did not answer Angel's question, but moved his lips, as if he was talking to someone.
After a while, Sanders spoke: "All messages transmitted to the mirror world will basically be forwarded by the tree spirit. I just asked the tree spirit, and it was indeed someone who sent a message to Greya before she left. The specific content of the message is encrypted, so the tree spirit does not know."
"But according to the tree spirit, the person who sent the message was a female apprentice from the Black Castle."
Black Castle!
Angel was stunned for a moment. After Greya disappeared in the cold world, Angel saw her for the first time in the Black Castle. At that time, another gourmet wizard in the candy house, 'Madame Butterfly' Felicia, was also in the Black Castle.
I think the relationship between the Candy House and the Black Castle should be very close.
It is possible that Greya went to the Black Castle.
However, Isabella is said to have some conflicts with Greya. The one who can call her to the Black Castle is either Felicia or that person.
While Angel was guessing, Sanders said: "Let's put Greya's matter aside for now. I remember that you promised Bobota to take him to the Black Castle to see his sister. In this case, after the things at hand are dealt with, if Greya has not shown up, you might as well go to the Black Castle to take a look."
Sanders paused: "It's just right, I also need to formally visit Isabelle, the 'King of Dusk' who has returned to the South."
