Warlock Apprentice

Chapter 1709: Section 1710: The Cause

“Last night, at the underground Manluo Field in the Fragrant District, Europa praised your theater shadow box in front of all the Wizards participating in the Fragrance Appreciation Conference. She teased us with her words but didn’t share the shadow box she received for us to see. At that time, I noticed several Witches quietly leaving—likely intending to buy your shadow box.”

The speaker was a Witch wearing a petal gown, adorned with a garland atop her head. Her figure was poised and graceful, her features stunning yet not garish. However, her image flickered intermittently; this was not her True Body but an Illusion projected from the communicator on the table.

The Witch’s projection was none other than Lianna of the “Rose Crown.” Angel had been busy refining theater shadow boxes in recent days. Just as he was preparing to delve into alchemical matters related to the New Star Tournament participants, Lianna contacted him through the communicator before he could even begin refining.

Angel glanced at Lianna’s projection, nodded noncommittally, and replied casually, “If they want to buy shadow boxes, they’d best act quickly because I didn’t refine that many.”

Lianna raised an eyebrow lightly, “I’ve said so much, and that’s the part you focus on? Aren’t you curious about other things, like what Europa praised about you?”

Angel looked at Lianna with a puzzled expression, “Does it have anything to do with me?” Everyone likes hearing compliments, but it’s odd to deliberately ask someone about the nice things they’ve said about you.
