Chapter 764 Strange Development

When the Wallop family arrived at the mayor's single-family villa, they were greeted warmly by the mayor himself.

Sean didn't know much about his family's business, and he didn't attend many banquets with his parents. However, he discovered that the mayor in this fantasy was not the one he knew in reality.

The other person was personable and looked to be less than forty years old. What was even stranger was that even though he was a different person, Sean always felt like he had met him before.

However, he didn't say much and still acted like an eight-year-old gentleman.

The mayor's villa is extremely luxurious, even more luxurious than the Wallops'. It only took two minutes to walk from the courtyard to the living room. After entering, Sean was a little dizzy because of the flash of light - how much the mayor likes gold...

Seeing his father and the mayor laughing and chatting, Sean, who was used to it, didn't pay much attention. He just looked around - officials and businessmen, in any country in the world, in any era of the world, are closely integrated. At the same time, there was nothing noteworthy about the conversation in the fantasy world.

I don’t know how the Soul Returning Peak can create such an illusion. There is no foggy scene after entering the memory, and there is no God’s perspective in mid-air.

Sean even tried to visit other places in the mayor's villa. The rooms were exquisitely and luxuriously decorated, and there was no lack of detail - even though he had never been to such a place.

"Weird, where did the material in this illusion come from..." Sean looked at his short self in the bathroom mirror. He didn't feel any discomfort after becoming smaller, but he could still feel his magic power. .

However, everything he originally carried was gone, such as rings, wands, potions, etc.

Sean tried calling Dave, but there was only a vague response. The other party seemed to be completely unable to feel his specific location, nor could he feel Dave's state.

"Telepathy is still useful, but it has been weakened so severely that it can almost be regarded as non-existent..."

Sean thought about it and called out the system out of habit.

Magic items: Hand of glory (purple), no-wash wool socks (special), self-fixing lapel pin (special), high-precision looking glass (purple), Lament of the Ancients (gold) (cooling not completed), Hermione· Granger's Echoes (gold) (cooldown completed), Black Sleeper (gold) (cooldown completed), Sybill Trelawney's Card (gold)...

Charms Talent: 9 (You already have the right path to become a powerful wizard)

Transfiguration talent: 10+3 (Everything in the world can change, you will become an unprecedented master of transfiguration!)

Potions Talent: 5 (You finally don’t have to be so scared when brewing potions. This talent is enough to make the Potions Professor smile at you occasionally. Note: Except for Severus Snape)

Magical animal affinity: 10+3 (everywhere you go, all magical animals will be obsessed with your amazing charm, even if you haven't bathed for a month)

Ancient Rune Talent: 10+4+5 (The weeping began to echo, the wail finally sounded, someone returned to his rightful place, the world and you both realized this. However, all gifts have a price, What is all this?)

…

Dark Magic Talent: 10+4 (Ha! If you are not in Azkaban surrounded by a hundred dementors, then the entire Ministry of Magic should resign! Note: Some people are born in darkness, You can travel further on a road where you can't see the front - even, you are part of that dark road.)

Sean's pupils shrank violently, this was...

There was nothing wrong with the system panel, but his ancient rune talent suddenly became abnormal.

If I remember correctly, after adding up the talent points and suit effects I collected before, the ancient rune talent is only in a 4+5 state.

10+4+5, this is the first time Sean has seen the system express talent points in such a strange way.

Moreover, if you put it this way, doesn't it mean that you have gained 10 points of basic talent out of thin air?

According to the realistic conventions of the system, all talents are represented by 0-10, and ten points is the upper limit of talent points that ordinary wizards in this world can access.

But why, as soon as he entered the illusion of Soul Return Peak, his ancient rune talent became like this?

"Is it possible...that my original talent for ancient runes was only ten points?"

Sean came up with this idea, because his ancient rune talent is different from ordinary people. According to Professor Bablin, ordinary people's ancient rune talent is almost 5 points or above. His kind The phenomenon of "fainting with rune symbols" is abnormal.

Is this my original talent?

Sean tried to recall a few magic spells that required the use of ancient runes in his mind, and then he was surprised to find that the original combination of words and phrases that were difficult to understand and obscure, as well as the runes that were more difficult to use in practice, The magic construction line suddenly became clear.

If those things were originally a high school student with good grades trying to understand linear algebra, now it feels like he is reading quadratic equations in elementary school.

It's not that the ancient runes have become less difficult, but that he can understand them easily.

Ancient runes are actually a bit similar to mathematics. To put it simply, ancient runes are more straightforward than the beautiful witch. It will not give you a vague hope - if you can, you will, if you can't, you won't. meeting.

Most people have a clear upper limit on ancient runes, and Sean's perception of this is the most obvious.

But now...everything is completely different.

"Why can I get the talent of ancient runes in a fantasy world... And I always feel that this is my original talent... But if my original talent is like this, how come I only have a little in reality... "

"If I successfully pass this trial, after leaving the illusion, won't I be unable to understand these obscure symbols again..."

Just when Sean was confused, someone knocked gently on the bathroom door. It was the mayor's maid.

"Mr. Wallop, your mother asked me to ask you if you feel uncomfortable somewhere?"

Sean knew that he had stayed here too long, so he said in a child's tone: "Oh, no, thank you, I'll be out soon."

"Okay, the party is about to start."

Sean adjusted his clothes habitually and suppressed his doubts for the time being. It was better to let the fantasy develop naturally.

When he returned to the restaurant, the mayor and his family were already waiting for him.

"This kid ate too much ice cream before he came here." Mr. Wallop shook his head and smiled, expressing his apology.

Mr. Mayor laughed: "Not all children are like this, my daughter also likes to eat ice cream - by the way, Sean, I haven't introduced you to my daughter yet, she is a little older than you."

The affection between these words is obvious. The marriage between the two families is obviously a scene that both gentlemen are happy to see. Of course, the two children are still young, and the adults' filthiness does not stop there. Now it is just to let Just two people getting to know each other.

Sean is not resistant to this kind of thing. He is the best at dealing with various social situations, let alone in a fantasy world.

"Come on, Stephanie, this is Sean, let's meet him."

The mayor's words caused Sean's business smile to freeze on his face.

A petite girl came from the living room. Her long black hair fell to her waist, her delicate face was like an elf, and her dark eyes looked at Sean calmly.

No wonder the mayor, whom I have never met, looks familiar to me...

Isn't it the black-haired version of Stephanie who came here? !

Apart from her different hair color, Stephanie looked slim in a small dress with complicated patterns that she would rarely wear.

This girl seemed to have the same expression no matter where she was, and Sean almost shouted out of habit.

However, the other party just nodded politely to Sean, and it was steady and polite. Of course, there was no other meaning - Sean was sure at once that this was not Stephanie who entered the illusion in front of him. This seemed to be someone. Stephanie constructed from memory.

"Could this be what Sean's soul has experienced in another timeline? But how did Stephanie become the mayor's daughter?"

Sean suppressed the doubts in his heart and smiled shyly at this 'big sister' - this was probably one of the rare moments when Stephanie was taller than Sean.

After getting to know each other, the banquet began. Although Sean was confused, he honestly did not cause any trouble. But what puzzled him was that the banquet went smoothly and there were no other problems.

His trial in the Soul Returning Peak couldn't be that simple, otherwise the little squirrel wouldn't have had to warn him again and again.

Although it said that the previous trial was no problem for it, but since it said so, it proves that something should still happen, and then there is a fatal fork in the road - why does it only need to eat a meal now?

The dinner came to an end smoothly. The adults still had something to say, so they left the two children to play by themselves.

Sean followed the black-haired version of Stephanie with some confusion, thinking about various things.

Is there no danger before the fork in the road? Am I overthinking it?

But if I continue as usual, there won’t be any scenes that require me to make a choice...

Hey, no matter which world, fantasy or reality Stephanie is in, she smells the same, with a vaguely sweet smell...

Hiss, I don’t seem to know what the mayor’s last name is. If it’s not Ollivander, wouldn’t it mean that Stephanie in another timeline is not Ollivander’s granddaughter? The difference here is huge...it's not normal...

Sean, who was full of doubts, didn't notice that he and Stephanie had reached the yard, nor did he notice that the girl stopped.

Without noticing, Sean felt like he had hit a soft wall.

"Oh, sorry, I was just thinking about something." Sean took a step back and apologized.

Stephanie stared at him, making Sean feel numb. Just when he was about to speak, the girl took the lead and said: "You are also a wizard..."

Sean was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that Stephanie was a little older than him, and this time seemed to be the time to receive the acceptance letter during the summer vacation.

Has the other party received the Hogwarts admission notice?

However, the current self obviously does not know these things. Sean pretended to be confused: "Wizard?"

Stephanie nodded: "I can feel that there is magic in your body, and it is very big... and I feel a sense of familiarity."

Is there a tacit understanding between guilt and responsibility... Sean continued to pretend to be stupid: "Magic power? Are you talking about the ability to make gold? My sister is eight years old, and I will no longer believe in these children's things. ”

Stephanie looked at him for a while, then grabbed his hand: "Let Him tell you-"

Him? ! Sean's pupils shrank violently, and he subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand, but he immediately realized that he shouldn't be so alert.

Without hesitation, Stephanie had already grabbed his hand and put it on her cheek.

The girl's skin was delicate and smooth, but Sean had no intention of paying attention to it - a voice rang in his head.

It's the same timbre as Stephanie's, but without the cool tone, it's lazy and charming.

"Sure enough, it feels right... Haha, little handsome guy, let the other handsome guy inside you come out and speak."

Sean does a great job of being completely unaware and panicking about having another person talking in his head.

However, [Lust] obviously didn't care about his acting skills: "Haha, stop acting, I can feel that my good brother has woken up, how could you not know at all - Brother, come out and speak quickly, otherwise , I’m going to do something embarrassing to your host, giggling.”

Sean still looked frightened, and of course there would be no reaction in his body.

[Lust] finally had doubts in his voice: "Huh? Are you really not awakened? This is impossible... In that case..."

It seemed that [Lust] was preparing to do something. Just when Sean was hesitating to respond, a familiar and huge magic power rippled.

He and Stephanie both looked up at the living room.

"I suddenly felt something. I take the liberty of disturbing you two." An old man with white hair and beard walked out of the living room with a smile.

Stephanie took a step back alertly: "Who are you? It is illegal to break into a house rashly, sir."

Sean gasped.

That's Grindelwald...

However, unlike Sean's teacher in this world, the Grindelwald in front of him is more unruly and wanton.

Although he was smiling, the intention in his eyes was all too familiar to Sean. However, that kind of look was often when facing an enemy, and Sean had never experienced it before.

That's undisguised murderous intent! (End of chapter)
