Chapter 661: Ananda Disappeared
Inside his study, Sunders picked up Angor’s “Monument Loop” and examined it.
He soon found a mark engraved at the bottom of the item’s base, which showed a lion trapped in thorny vines. Almost immediately, Sunders knew what this meant.
“Oh ho. The boy is steadily becoming a professional.”
Instead of testing it out right away, he placed it at one corner of his desk where the demon falcon statue was located. The two items of different qualities easily showed Angor’s growth in skills.
“Keep going, Angor. You need it.” He smiled in content.
The door to the study was knocked open, and Flora barged inside in rage. “Damn it, Little Red! Why would you give Angor those roses every time you see him? You ruined my plan!”
“Did Angor trouble you?” Sunders raised an eyebrow.
Angor left the balcony, gazed at the blurry scenery across the window, and closed up the curtain.
…
He stretched his arms when he felt the sky outside bright and peaceful again. He spent the whole night crafting five different illusion items with manifestations of Mystery inside, which were five demon falcon statues but with different postures.
The clock on the wall told him that it was seven in the morning.
He wondered if his professor had returned yet. To someone in the real world, a journey in the Nightmare Realm only took a very brief moment.
He collected the statues and prepared to visit Sunders’ study.
While walking past the hallway on the second floor, he saw Goode leaving the kitchen.
“Good timing, Mister Padt, we prepared fresh milk imported from Windmill Town, butter wheat beard, and several fruits—”
Angor stopped him from reading the menu. “Place my breakfast in the dining hall. I’ll go there later.”
Goode nodded.
“And, Butler Goode, have you heard anything from the professor? I mean, something like, did he tell you what he wants to have this morning?”
“No. Master has not had any meal for some time. He only orders dishes during special occasions.”
“Did he ever come out of his room today?”
“No,” Goode considered and added, “but I believe Miss Flora left from the study yesterday morning.”
Flora left? Angor felt comforted all of a sudden since this meant Sunders also returned in one piece.
After leaving Goode, Angor went for Sunders’ study.
He heard Sunders speaking to him in a tired voice before getting to the door, “Something you need, Angor?”
“I’ve finished the illusion items, sir.” Angor quickly took out his newly crafted items from his bracelet.
It took a moment for Sunders to respond. “I see.”
An energy beam swept past Angor’s position, taking all the statues away.
“Anything else? If not, go mind your own matter.”
It seemed that Sunders did not wish to see him right now.
Angor pondered and decided to try anyway. “About the treasure vault you just visited—”
“We’ll talk about it next time.”
Angor nodded and left obediently.
Inside the study, Sunders looked at the bloody floor as well as the blood dripping from his body and breathed a sigh of relief.
