Chapter 873: 328

"Too true, Wayne calls, and she just comes?"

"..."

Seeing Viley at a loss for words, Philomena continued, "Even if she’s willing to give Wayne face, there’s no need to tarnish the reputation of the Holy Maiden. If she dares to do so, she must have a plan in her mind."

As she spoke, she rattled off a bunch of conspiracy theories.

The three little heads nodded in agreement as they listened and before long, they formed a verbal alliance.

With Saina leading and Anastasia following, only by coming together could they assure a bright future.

As it turned out, while having more people meant broader wisdom and influence, it did not exclude the possibility of lowering the average IQ. Philomena, for instance, upped the collective attractiveness but undermined Viley’s authority, adding insult to the already insufficient intelligence.

October 17.

Wayne Manor.

Valkyrie, unable to comprehend the current knight selection standards, gave up on her plan to rectify Wayne and poured all her teaching effort into Viley, urging her to practice swordsmanship in the back garden.

Since it was the Dragon-Slayer Sword Technique, Viley learned with great fervor.

Dreyne stood in the study, overlooking the entire manor, and said with a raised eyebrow, "I wouldn’t have guessed, the Lando Family is quite understated. Your home isn’t as large as I’d imagined."

"Uh, this isn’t Lando home, it’s just my house."

"What do you mean?"

"Literally what I said."

Wayne shrugged. The God-chosen Knights were so powerful that because of their strength, they had no need for money, which meant Dreyne lacked the concept of money. Being away from worldly affairs for so long had limited her understanding of the term ’noble.’

Dreyne didn’t think too much about it. Like Anastasia, she wasn’t overly concerned with material life and didn’t care how big Lando Manor truly was. Mentioning it was merely a way to tease her heir.

"I’ve finished forging the Dragon Tooth Swords, a total of thirty-six. I’ll keep four for self-defense, and the rest are all yours."

"That many?"

"Not really, didn’t you realize how large a Giant Dragon’s skeleton is? They piled up into a mountain."

Dreyne explained and then added, "At the very least, my mental ability allows me to forge thirty-six Dragon Tooth Swords—it’s my limit, but it’s not the limit of the swords themselves. One day, when your mental abilities surpass mine, you can reshape the Dragon Tooth Swords until you refine the entire bone mountain into a single sword."

Wayne nodded; a new mini-goal appeared for him.

"Dreyne, I’m now a Golden Mage, and the next level is Legendary Mage. However, the realm of a Legendary Mage doesn’t seem to differ much from that of a Golden Mage—it’s just piling up life, the Void, and me on the existing foundation until a qualitative change triggers a quantitative one. Do you have any insights?" Wayne asked curiously.

"The Golden Triangle is the foundation of balance, the premise for a mage to explore the Void. At this stage, you’ve gained the potential to refuse knowledge..."

Seeing her heir bring up issues related to magical theory, Dreyne took a rare serious turn, "The Hexagram, the Silver Cross—they all lay the groundwork for the Golden Triangle. Likewise, the realms of ’Golden,’ ’Legend’ Mage both lay the foundations for the breakthrough towards a Demigod. A Legendary Mage can be considered human, while a Demigod is a different kind of life form."

"Is a God-chosen Knight also a Demigod?"

"You could say that."

Dreyne nodded, "Because of White Night Purity Words, I became a Demigod, but not in the true sense of the term. I can easily defeat many Demigods, but this power comes from White Night Purity Words, a gift from the Goddess that raised my life status to that of a Demigod."

"What if you lose the White Night Purity Words?"

"The influence of White Night Purity Words has already made me a Demigod."

Dreyne shared the special qualities of God’s Chosen Knights, and seeing Wayne semi-understand, she continued, "Don’t think too much. What you need to do is practice diligently. The stronger you are, the more potent White Night Purity Words become. The Divine Artifacts of the five God-chosen Knights are at the same level, but the knights themselves have varying strengths. Do you understand what I’m saying?"

"Somewhat."

"You still think too much..."

After pondering for a moment, Dreyne said solemnly, "Wayne, you are too eager to progress, which is both good and bad. Control your desires well and don’t be driven by them. Starting from ’Golden,’ ’Legend’ Mage and working upwards is very important for your future."

The icy beauty taught with the tone of a mentor, her words filled with care for her heir, which couldn’t help but command respect from Wayne, stirring a sense of first love within him.

"Wayne, I’ll be leaving in a week; during this time, accompany me to play cards well, and don’t go anywhere else."

"Back to Icebound Continent for rotation?"

"No, I’m heading to another place."

Dreyne raised an eyebrow, "Have you heard of Mirror Space, the Inverted World corresponding to the God-chosen Continent? A dark, cruel world filled with negative despair, also known as the Inverted World."

"Uh, I’ve heard something about it."

Wayne thought of his ’self’ in the Inverted World, the true heir to the Death Knight, and asked curiously, "Dreyne, what are you going to do in the Inverted World? It sounds dangerous."

"The Goddess’s Divine Decree; I must find something there."

Dreyne didn’t specify what task or what she was looking for and patted Wayne’s shoulder, "The Inverted World is dangerous for a Legendary Mage, but for a Demigod like me, it’s just a larger trash can. I’ll be back quickly, when I return, we can continue to play..."

"Cards!"

"What?"

"Don’t talk like that; it makes it sound like you might never come back," Wayne said embarrassingly.

"Ha, who do you think you’re looking down on!"
