“What are you doing? Don’t you want to learn magic anymore?”
Celia’s actions puzzled Dionmya.
From the exchange George and Celia just had, Dionmya caught an interesting detail—George had exceptional perception abilities.
“No, of course I’m happy to learn more.” It wasn’t that Celia didn’t want to learn Cloud’s Eye, but she knew that learning was a gradual process.
She wasn’t so talented that she could learn a spell instantly.
After telling Dionmya these thoughts, the woman fell silent.
Just when Celia thought she could understand, Celia heard her say casually,
“But I can assist you with it if you need me to.”
Celia fell silent for a moment. One way or the other, she had underestimated Dionmya.
She had not expected the woman who was only a spiritual entity to still be capable of many things.
Was this what a powerhouse that had survived since ancient times was like?
After some thought, Celia said,
“It doesn’t matter. George’s perception is more effective than Cloud’s Eye.”
“It’s alright. We can slowly familiarize ourselves with one other.”
Dionmya didn’t dwell on it any longer. After all, they were still in the early stages of getting to know each other.
Dionmya’s generosity and openness made Celia feel ashamed. To be fair, she had a great impression of the woman.
No matter what her motive was, it was a fact that Dionmya had saved her.
It didn’t make sense for her to treat the woman like this.
However, this thought vanished the moment she looked at George.
——————————————————-
After obtaining the information they wanted, Celia brought George to a special place.
It was a news agency.
The guards at the entrance of the news agency immediately made way for Celia.
Obviously, this was not her first time here.
As soon as she entered, a tall woman with navy blue hair and glasses stepped out.
A pair of small black wings could be seen sticking out from the woman’s lower back.
Swaying behind her as she walked was a small black tail with a triangular tip.
The woman was pleasantly surprised to see Celia.
“Celia, it’s you. It’s been a while.”
“Miss Sienna, still beautiful as ever.”
Celia stepped forward and gave the woman an intimate hug.
“Is Sister Anna here?”
“She’s actually in her office right now. Go look for her inside.”
Sienna adjusted her glasses, then looked at George through its blue-tinged lenses.
The latter happened to be interacting with Siluca, and thus, when sensing Sienna’s gaze, George merely nodded politely at her.
Seeing George return her gaze, Sienna looked flabbergasted and smiled brightly in response. Her tail swished wildly behind her, an indication of how excited she was.
However, her excitement soon turned into disappointment as George was dragged away by Celia.
As she watched George disappear from view, Sienna couldn’t help but let out a sigh.
Under Celia’s lead, the two of them walked into an office.
And on the main seat sat a charming and sophisticated-looking woman.
She had her head lowered and was frowning as looked over the documents on the table.
Upon hearing the door open, she said neutrally,
“Welcome.”
“Sister Anna, long time no see.”
The woman looked up in surprise when she heard Celia’s voice. A smile spread across her face when she saw the younger woman.
“Celia, it’s been a while. Have you lost weight?”
Anna stood up and quickly walked over to Celia to give her a big hug.
“I’ve missed you so much.”
While hugging Celia, she cast a glance at George, who was standing behind the young mage.
George smiled at her and returned his attention to Siluca.
Anna’s gaze lingered on Siluca for a moment before she released Celia and asked,
“By the way, where did you two disappear to? For such a long time too. I haven’t seen you guys in almost a month.
I almost thought you guys had left the city for good. “
“No, we just got slightly delayed.”
Celia replied calmly, thinking back to their latest operation.
“Well I’m glad you’re both okay.”
As Anna spoke, she took out a tea canister from her drawer.
Seeing this, Celia moved to help, but was stopped by Anna.
“So why did you guys come here? Is there something you need?”
Anna asked while putting on tea.
“Can’t we just visit you without reason?”
Anna rolled her eyes at Celia’s response.
As if these two would visit her if they had nothing going on.
“Oh please, I know you guys too well.”
While Celia was chatting with Anna, Dionmya also learned through her disciple, what kind of person Anna was.
Anna was a famous information broker, and not only that. She was a unique and unconventional information broker.
Ordinary information brokers had hidden bases that could be easily moved in the event they needed to make a quick escape.
However, Anna was different. She set up her base in the middle of a busy commercial street.
Not only that, she had set up a massive news agency.
Dionmya was unfamiliar with the concept of newspapers, but she at least knew of the thing based on Celia’s explanation.
“If possible, could you get me a newspaper to read later?”
“No problem.” Celia was happy to satisfy Dionmya’s curiosity.
Receiving Celia’s affirmative reply put Dionmya in a good mood.
“Celia, if possible, it’s better to not reveal any information about that place.”
After learning that Anna was an intelligence agent, Dionmya came to understand the purpose of Celia’s visit.
She didn’t stop Celia but merely gave the young girl some advice.
“That place is tied to too many things. It’s easy for something to go wrong if you aren’t careful.”
Since she’s said her piece, Dionmya felt that she had done everything she could. As for whether or not Celia would listen to her advicewas entirely up to the young mage.
“I understand, Master.”
Of course, the final outcome was one that Dionmya was very satisfied with.
Although she was explaining things to Dionmya on one end while simultaneously entertaining Anna on the other, Celia appeared completely normal and unstrained.
She looked at Anna who was making tea and said,
“There were some hiccups, and we didn’t manage to reach the location you gave us.”
Upon hearing this, Anna paused for a moment and asked,
“Did something happen?”
Celia nodded and said, “The situation inside the Forest of Slumber isn’t too great.. Actually, the danger level there is almost comparable to the Forest of Awakening…”
