Chapter 238: Mobius Ring
Annan was feeling quite coave up the ritual or completed it
The only difference hether her physical body left Benjamin or her heart
In actual history, Benjamin would enter the Swamp’s Black Tower, become an Alteration Wizard, recruit many apprentices, and sell Alteration productsWas it all because he had attributed Evelyn’s death that year as his fault because he didn’t get an oint see to Salvatore, un to appear in the Noah Kingdom in the last dozen years
The “Flesh Thread” that could sew together wounds, the “Sorceress Ointment” that could heal burns, and the “Elixir” that relieved any injuries These ointments had become so much cheaper due to the i process There were also spectacles, artificial geauze, and sails made with Alteration arts
The most famous and iconic product was the “Green Fire” that had now reached thousands of households in the Noah Kingdo the use of candles
On the other hand, Benja the synthesization process of the Elixir, the Sorceress Ointranted him the honorary title “Master Benjamin”
The improvement ideas of these Alteration products were si their effects on Transcended, he chose a synthesis nificantly reducing the price of production In the end, he improved the Alteration arts catered for civilians that were simple and low cost
Evelyn is likely Benjamin’s obsession that will always haunt his mind
The main reason for Evelyn’s death was that she watched the Pale Princess’s dance during the Pale Tide
As for the reason she was fascinated by the Pale Princess’s dance was because she was obsessed with dancing
This obsession caured face by a fire
She had a disfigured face because she couldn’t afford the “Sorceress Ointment” to heal her burns
Evelyn wasn’t born poor
She wasn’t forced into any labor or farm work Apparently, she had no calluses on her hands, and she knew Benja treated
It was because of the arrogance of the wizards
Salvatore told Annan that the wizards y in that era
Not to mention ordinary people, even other types of Transcended could hardly buy any wizard’s inventions Money didn’t help in this situation because wizards strictly forbid the sale of Alteration products to anyone outside of the Swamp’s Black Tower
You could apply the product for theoal was to prevent the Alteration Wizards of other towers fro their arts into crafting better Alteration products
The situation had changed twenty years later, probably due to Benjamin’s efforts
He improved many civilian versions of “Alteration products”, used them to dominate the low-end e sum of money At the same time, it also incurred co theo and research “Alteration products for ordinary people”
It had indirectly pressured wizards ide to share their technology with ordinary people
This was an era that alcheine before the wizard’s Unification War
Benjamin was an Alteration Wizard anted to use Alteration products that only Alteration Wizard could make to benefit and help the public
But ould have known that the change of an era was because of a dancer disfigured by fire?
Annan thought about it silently
He was a little worried that Benjamin would be reluctant to host the ritual for her
When Annan and Benjamin ca
The sound was faint and distant…
It see voice
“Did you hear anything?” Annan suddenly had a thought in his heart and asked Benjamin in a low volume
Benjamin was stunned for a moment He frowned and listened for quite a while, then slowly shook his head, “No, not at all Let me listen more carefully—”
“It’s fine… Maybe I ing in his ear becaht and beautiful, but it is a prison;
“Love is fiery and brilliant, but it is the fire that confuses the eye;
“The wandering dancer who pursues beauty and freedom—
“The Pale already knows your purpose,
“Dedicate your soul remnant and love to the Pale;
“Dedicate your head and blood to the Pale…”
It was a similar poem Annan had read in the letter he found in the dreaht above hosts are in the lobby!
Annan immediately realized that this was the reversed hymn he heard in the “Reflection of the Church in the Lake”!

He awoke back at the dungeon cell’s entrance again The same spot where he traversed between reality and the dream world previously
“…Eh?” Annan was startled
Behind him, the cell door ide open, but no one was inside
The chain that he had removed was still intact
He twisted the lock and found out that it was still intact

But this tiht
He walked to the middle of the corridor, only to see that the table blocked the path leading to the “guillotine room”
Annan struck the ht was too dih to illuht hardly reached the e
Ineed to move this table out of the way
“Hmm, I should slon a little bit” Annan muttered, “Let’s see if the letter is different this ti his mind out loud, Annan skillfully opened the letter
