Since only one layer of the seal had been unlocked, right now Sun’s Corona could only sense the very strong smell of the World of Souls, and the thing it sensed must be very powerful, which meant that a horrible undead was right now staring at Lucien.

However, Lucien stayed relatively calm, and when he secretly scanned the whole study, he found no one else but himself.

Although the winter sun was nice and warm, Lucien felt cold inside.

Trying his best to behave as usual, Lucien picked up a card and pretended that he was reading the notes about an element written on the card carefully.

Sun’s Corona was getting hotter and hotter. Staring at the card, Lucien felt that there was a big white skull with bloody red-light eyes reading the notes right beside his face with him.

However, in the mirror, Lucien was the only one in the study.

Lucien wondered if this thing was sent by the Hand of Paleness, but he was also quite certain that they were still suspecting his relationship with Professor, instead of equating him directly with the mysterious sorcerer, or what he was facing now would be way more than just being watched.

Although there were lots of thoughts going on in Lucien’s mind, he did not show any different behavior. Like most researchers who were dedicated to their studies, Lucien kept working on his study over the elements.

In his mind, he knew that he really needed to hurry up and create his next arcana paper.

In the early evening, Lucien put down his cards and walked out of the study. The heat produced by Sun’s Corona was now hard to notice, but still relatively warm, which meant that the creature was not leaving the place yet.

Lucien relaxed a little, as he knew that it was just watching him. The only thing he needed to do and could do now was act as normal as possible.

...

After dinner, Lucien came to the lab tower as usual. As soon as he entered the tower, the heat from Sun’s Corona totally disappeared.

Lucien was very glad to see that the powerful magic circles protecting this tower could also prevent the undead from following him here.

At this time, K walked to him, ”Lucien, I thought you wouldn’t come here today.”

”I’m stronger than that.” Lucien smiled, and then walked with K side by side, ”By the way, what’s your paper on this issue of Element, K? Sorry I forgot to ask you earlier.”

K scratched his hair a bit and answered shyly, ”It’s about the phenomenon that elements always bond with fixed number of molecules in alchemical experiments. In other words… something like valency put forward by Mr. Larry.”

”That’s the foundation of the school of Elements. Now I see why Mr. Larry appreciate your talent, K.” Lucien sincerely nodded.

K was very shy. He did not respond but just smiled, lowering his head.

At this time, several people walked past and saw Lucien and K.
