Chapter 22 (1/2)

Although he er water ball, it did not see deal He could neither use it to attack enemies, nor to protect himself Much less to break the spell Michelle casted on him

However, thebehind the water ball was much more important than the water ball itself

It pointed a clear route for Benjaer

He still had no idea on how to learn new spells and sense other types of eleh However at this ic, and that built his confidence

He was finally not blind when it caic!

”What are you so excited about? That was just letting the row Was that so difficult to coently popped up to throet blanket on him

”You're gettingrecently,” Benjamin could not help but complain

”Oh, sorry, I rong You're such a genius!” the System immediately behaved itself

”” Benjamin was too lazy to even bother the System

With that being said, he finally got histo consider lihtly

He was here for quite a long tiic studies… If his calculations were correct, it would be the dawn of another day now He could not confirh The cellar he was in had no access to see the day and night of the outside world

When would Claude be willing to release him?

His servant Jeremy should have already returned with his otten ork did he assign for Jeremy, he still needed to let Jeremy continue to run trivial errands like this in order to divert the attention of the Church Then, he would finally be able to obtain Annie's effects

Ti out, but it was not too co time bomb, and no one knehen it would explode Benjah power to battle Michelle when the time came

But… there was no use in getting anxious over so that has yet to happen

He could not guess his father's decision, and he would not kno persuasive Mary could be; anything could happen in the world outside of these doors He exhaled dejectedly after realizing this, and could only try to

No h walls and doors to escape the cellar?

Thus, he relaxed his vigilance

He stared at the ceiling and daydrea his 'meditation' Oh, Benja water particles into the symbol as 'meditation'

Albeit rather old-fashi+oned, naht to himself, and further defended his choice There was no use for iination to come up with an extra stylish and cool name He was no author to a novel, a cool nahtest

After a few ain He was slightly peckish, but not starving; he was drowsy, but not exhausted

After some consideration, he decided to continue 'meditate'

Just in case so suspicious, he laid horizontal on the floor and closed his eyes, pretending to be asleep In his heart, he was already in the depth of the space of his consciousness, and started to repeatedly ular symbol…

The process of 'h he was unhappy with it, he could not find a way to improve his techniques

This ti of a tie to blend all of the water particles in his space into the blue symbol

That was because he was interrupted halfway through his exercise

That was the first time he was called out of the space of his consciousness by someone else

The feeling was unpleasant, like he was rudely awakened just as he was falling asleep, and he was drowsy and sluggish He was annoyed, too, but a voice was studiously assaulting his eardru him to shake himself awake from his stupor

”Youngmaster!”

Benjamin opened his eyes and was shocked by a face positioned extremely close to his

He instinctively distanced hinize the face

It was Jeremy, his servant

Jeremy was not alone The cellar also had another presence, and it was Mary, Benja at Benjaentle sht poured into the dim cellar

Benjaht on

He could finally leave

Yet, Benjaarded the space outside the door, and asked when he did not see anyone there, ”Where's father? Did he not coive me?”

He deliberately used a regretful tone, and showed an expression of fear when he talked about Claude

”Soe down South, and your father left to attend to that He would probably be back after a week,” Mary chuckled, ”Before he left, he told us to let you out So, don't worry, ry with you”

Benja that from Mary

Aside froood news for hih the fear on his face was all an act, deep down he felt that Claude was a tough case, and he would prefer to avoid facing him

”Thank you, er,” Benjamin stood and maintained a pitiful demeanor for Mary

”Everything is okay now We can leave,” Mary ssoet him ready for bed”

Jeremy hurriedly replied, ”Yes, madam”

Benjaazed at the night sky, he realized that it was already nightfall of the second day
