“People cannot see all the things a person has done. Our perception of someone is fragmented, as we can only see what they’ve done at certain stages.”
“With such fragmented information, no one can confirm whether someone who has helped them is a kind-hearted person like you, or a wolf in sheep’s clothing.”
“Most conflicts in the world are born because we cannot perceive the full picture of people and events.”
“Yes, Teacher…”
The noblewoman said:
“So when it comes to important matters, we should not base our thinking on simple concepts like ‘good and evil,’ which have no absolute standards of measurement, but rather on rules.”
“As a First Level Magic Research Institute, we have no contractual obligation with the Alchemy Cathedral to deal with the Nest Core. In fact, they have always forbidden us to intervene in matters related to the closure of Aberration Fissures. That’s why we can only stand by and watch.”
“If what we had established here was not a research institution but a judicial one, I assure you, I would have called for the help of Combat Wizards to cleanse the Nest Core and Samuelson.”
“Teacher, I understand… I oversimplified things…” Philia said apologetically.
“Go and rest for now, Philia. After you are well-rested tomorrow or the day after, invite Ray Lee to discuss the remuneration.”
“Alright, Teacher. I’ll go now.”
After Philia left, the study room fell quiet.
The noblewoman leaned back in her chair and entered her Dreamscape.
“Can I talk to you now?”
Noland Lee was practicing the movements from “Soul Casting Technique” in his bedroom when he suddenly heard Denise Green’s voice in his heart.
It took him half a second to realize he wasn’t hallucinating.
He and Denise had developed a weak soul perception after signing the soul contract.
As a result, he acquired the skill “Soul Perception: Denise.”
Noland pulled up the skill list, selected this skill, and activated it:
“Alright, Denise. Give me a little while.”
“Mm.”
Noland went to the washing room to clean himself, and then, with the curtains drawn in the dark bedroom, he summoned Denise.
Denise, both tumultuous and refined, immediately asked as soon as she appeared in the room:
“You should know by now that Samuelson is conducting Magic Enlightenment on the Nest Core, right? My professor just told me about it.”
“Sit down and talk, Denise.”
Noland and Denise sat face-to-face with a desk between them.
He was silent for a few seconds before saying:
“Considering that we will be together for a long time, I think there is something necessary for me to explain to you.”
Since they had already signed an everlasting soul contract, Noland wasn’t worried about his new nanny “jumping ship”. So, he decided to be honest about some things to give her a heads-up.
“What is it?” Denise asked, tilting her head a little, her eyes gazing at the unusually deep Noland.
“I am not the Sleeping Monument Master’s student. I am a Wild Wizard.”
Denise’s breath caught, her curvy form maintained a full state.
Her eyes showed a dazed look, which after two seconds turned to apprehension mingled with thought:
“You mean you’ve been using the name of the Sleeping Monument Master?… Who else knows about this? We might still have a chance to remedy this.”
Denise’s eyes were glistening with unshed tears as she looked eagerly at Noland, as if she were about to cry.
Noland watched her expression change.
Her initial reaction didn’t show any anger born from being deceived, nor did it give rise to resentment.
There was not much blame in her words, but more of a desire to discuss a solution together.
Noland now had a clear understanding of Denise’s character.
Virtuous, tolerant, yielding, innocent, enduring, and easily bullied.
Once such a woman commits to someone, she will genuinely consider things from their perspective.
But don’t take advantage of her forgiveness and do too many things to hurt her.
Because when such a woman gets her heart completely broken, not even ten bulls can pull her back.
Even if she has to respond to the summons due to the soul contract, a heartbroken her would still act as if she were a passerby.
Noland pondered for a moment and said:
“No one but you knows that I’ve impersonated the Sleeping Monument Master’s student. Everyone who knows me, including the local Elemental Judgement member, and you two minutes ago, is completely convinced of my identity.”
“That’s good…” Denise sighed in relief, blinking back her tears:
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier…”
“Because only after signing the soul contract, can we have preliminary trust between us.” Noland shrugged and said:
“I’ve always believed that the best way to protect oneself is not by making oneself impervious and omnipotent but by becoming someone who can withdraw from trouble at any time. Joining a wizard force means facing opposing wizard forces. Joining an extraordinary organization means being prepared to face a hostile organization. I don’t like that kind of life. I desire more choices, not being forced to choose between one of two or one of three options. That’s why I disguised myself as a student of a Lecturer Professor instead of joining any faction of wizard forces.”
“But after signing the soul contract with me, you’ll have to face the challenges of other Resurrection Witches. Don’t you regret it?” Denise asked.
