Chapter 375: Red Pillar (1/2)
The truth was that no one knew who it was had claimed the Dream Abode. It was only after seeing Leonel exit that people finally got a look at just who this individual was.
So, when Leonel made it to the stone monument, not a single person spared him a glance. Of course, that was only because they didn't notice his Emperor brand immediately.
Now that Leonel knew his becoming famous was inevitable, he put away his overinflated bravado and went back to his normal disposition. So, not many eyes were on him to begin with.
”Jerach, this monument is very useful for you.” Leonel suddenly said.
”Huh? What?” Jerach's eyes widened then scanned the surroundings to see if anyone was listening in on their conversation.
Leonel chuckled. ”Don't worry, no one can hear me but you. It's just a single noise cancellation spell.”
Leonel had used plenty of these spells to form his maze back during Merlin's Random Event. Using it now in conversation wasn't an issue.
That said, Leonel found that casting the same spells in a Fourth Dimensional world had severely lowered effects. For example, a teleportation spell that would have usually carried him tens of meters would be lucky to shift him one or two meters.
Still, for such a low level spell, it could get the job done.
It was only after hearing Leonel say this that Jerach sighed a breath of relief.
”… You're a mage? No, forget that. What do you mean this monument can help me? Is there a secret?”
”Of course there is. Did you think that these monuments just stood here to tell you about how many women these Generals took back to their tents?”
Jerach grinned. ”What better source of encouragement is there than this?”
Leonel seemed to have almost forgotten who he was dealing with. He almost couldn't refrain from rolling his eyes.
”The stories written on this monument may or may not be true, I don't know. But, what I do know is that the story isn't nearly as important as what's hidden within. You need to brace yourself and touch the monument with your Internal Sight.”
Jerach hesitated upon hearing this.
The reason most didn't dare to do this was because the pressure around the monument was too great. Internal Sight seemed intangible, but it was still connected to one's mind. Under equally 'intangible' pressure, it could suffer damage and cause backlash to its owner. So, under such conditions, not many dared to even test Leonel's theory, let alone going as far as to observe the monument with it.
”This is something you'll have to figure out yourself.” Leonel said. ”I've already given you all the information you need to know.”
Leonel sighed internally. He could tell that Jerach had a mental roadblock somewhere, but he wasn't some sort of guru, nor had he known Jerach for long enough to extend advice to him.
Maybe to Jerach, he had already hidden it well. In truth, most wouldn't be able to pick up on it at all. The fact Leonel had was just a testament to his observational abilities.
With these words said, Leonel took several steps forward and entered the aura field of the stone monument. It was only after he did this that many turned a curious eye over to him.
