“How, How could this be possible?”

No. 76 felt as though a bomb was exploding in her heart, and stood petrified on the spot.

Since she knew that the colorful Magic Stone was only able to respond to the fluctuation of magic power within a limited range, which, in theory, was around 100 steps, she had just casually raised the ring and not expected to see anything in the castle at this distance. She wondered how this happened?

She took a deep breath, then blinked, and again put the ring before her eye.

The beam was still there, what she saw was not an illusion but a solid sight.

A surge of indescribable excitement rose in her mind, making it impossible for her to stay calm now. She got in touch with her people through thoughts.

“Pasha, what kind of people are eligible to be called the Chosen One?”

“Have you seen the edge of the ring? The one whose beam of light can fill the entire field of vision will be the Chosen One we’re looking for.”

“This is too dramatic. Even Lady Eleanor’s beam of light is only capable of covering half of the ring’s view.”

“Hence that person must have more potential than the Three Chiefs of the Union combined. I admit that the requirement is hard to meet, but we have no choice other than this. Remember, the Key neither represents the strength of the magic power nor equates to fighting capacity. That’s why you have to make sure to check every witch.”

“The edge? Fill the vfield ision?” Number 76 repeated it in her heart.

“No… Pasha, the miracle I’m seeing now is far more than that.” Even seeing through the ring which had been put closest to her eye, No. 76 could not see the entire beam. The width of the beam extended beyond her sight so that only by moving the ring horizontally she was able to see the vast panorama of the huge light wall.

“Deities finally smile at human beings.”

“Lady Natalia, you’re right.”

“I’ve found the Chosen One here.”

When Roland entered the bathroom, yawning, he saw that Zero was washing up before the sink.

“Mm… Where’s the toothpaste?”

“Here.” The little girl slightly stood aside and handed him a tube of toothpaste that had almost run out.

“Thanks.” Roland took a glass of water and stuffed the wet toothbrush into his mouth. Looking at himself and Zero, a tall person and a short person, in the mirror, crowding before the narrow sink and making synchronous elbow movements to brush their teeth, he suddenly felt that this scene was hilarious.

Zero spat out the foam in her mouth and shot Roland a glance. “What’re you sneering at?”

“You’re such a shorty.” Roland returned with his nasal voice.

Then he felt a kick in his calf.

“Remember to shave, or you’ll look old,” she said as she swept back her white hair and began to tie a ponytail, “Don’t shame me today.”

“It was only a parents’ meeting.” He sighed and rinsed his toothbrush clean. “I’m not your true family. There’s no need for an agent to be so formal.”

Given that his wardrobe was filled with cheap clothes, he would be thankful to find something that would make him look virtuous, not to mention a formal suit.

“By the way, I think you look better with hair hanging down,” Roland smacked and said, “but if you insist, I suggest the twin tail that’ll suit you more.”

“None of your business!” Zero retorted.

Then he was pushed out of the bathroom.

“It seems that her temper has worsened after summer… Do I indulge her too much?” Roland pondered.
