Mystic Overlord: Reading Gives Strength-Chapter 1076 - 1070: The Last Remaining Archmage
——Searching for the sister accidentally taken into the [Infinite Negative Domain];
——The sword of Saint Catherine carried along;
——Distinctive bright red hair.
With these three obvious traits coming together, Ronald didn't need to think much before confirming that the Fisher before him was the sister of the Katherine in the [Infinite Negative Domain].
However...
According to the information Ronald knew.
Fisher's journey to find her sister seemed unlikely to have a hopeful outcome.
After all, when he and the cultist magician entered the [Infinite Negative Domain], only Katherine was seen near the Barrier Mountain observatory, Fisher's presence was notably absent.
Especially with this sword of Saint Catherine.
Given that Ronald was able to acquire it from the church hundreds of years later, it's likely that Fisher, as the sword's current master, never entered that world.
"Sigh..."
Connecting these clues, Ronald couldn't help but sigh.
The reality was before him; he was powerless to change what had already happened.
Even if Ronald told Fisher everything before him now, the girl in the historical fragments couldn't affect the distant history.
Therefore, Ronald kept these things to himself, sharing them with no one.
Meanwhile.
Fisher and Il, climbing the steps inside the castle, had already talked quite a bit during the short journey. Clearly, they appreciated each other quite a bit.
As they moved upwards, Fisher explained her journey to Il:
"In fact, this is my first time walking such a long road."
"Before leaving home, my map marked numerous dangerous sea monsters in the nearby waters, hiding extremely dangerous creatures in the deep sea. Choosing to take this path required a major decision on my part! Yet, I didn't expect that with the sealing of those resisting wizards, the strange ocean races on the Pacific disappeared without a trace. The world's changes are indeed a bit hard to adapt to."
Saying this, Fisher suddenly looked curiously at Il:
"By the way, Il, how did you and Mr. Ronald come to [Lachmont]?"
"I heard casters with some abilities nearby were invited by noblemen to construct the canal. It's rare to come to this already abandoned [Lachmont] at this time."
Il answered very honestly:
"We indeed came from the north, but that's an even more distant north... Oh! Do you know Joeyz Forest? We came from there!"
"Joeyz Forest?" Upon hearing this name, Fisher's expression changed instantly, "Of course I know! I heard one of the Six-man Council members lives there; I didn't expect you to come from there!"
Although Il usually behaved differently from ordinary human thinking.
But in collecting critical information, she maintained a very high standard.
So when Fisher mentioned Joeyz Forest and members of the Six-man Council living there, she immediately recalled Ronald's lectures, promptly boasting:
"Ha, isn't it just Kurpis!"
"To be honest, I actually live there."
"..."
On the other hand, Fisher was totally unprepared for such a response.
Upon hearing this, the red-haired girl stood on the stairs, dumbfounded for several seconds before suddenly realizing:
"So - Il, you've met the legendary generalist, Hops Adler?"
"..."
Hearing the name of the Adler family ancestor from Fisher, Il instinctively wanted to continue boasting.
Clap—Clap—
But at this moment, she happened to hear Ronald behind her suddenly made two heavy footsteps. Il, shivering with excitement, immediately reined in her exuberant expression; her tone when answering Fisher became hesitant:
"Uh... Hops... that..."
Il awkwardly repeated Fisher's question.
She could feel Ronald's special look from behind, causing her to stammer when answering the question:
"I, in fact, I've never met the famous generalist. Actually—I'm saying now, probably no one else has a chance to meet that original holder!"
But Fisher interpreted Il's hesitation differently, so she asked solemnly:
"Il, you're so nervous because Mr. Hops doesn't like to meet strangers?"
Il almost resigned herself to nodding, waving her head:
"No, it's not that he doesn't like meeting strangers. But, from what I know living in Kurpis, that Hops Adler should be buried in the church cemetery behind the town now!"
"..."
Fisher fell silent instantly, her expression turning somber.
According to her investigation, back when the [Infinite Negative Domain] sealed the Barrier Mountain's wizards, the large ritual was ultimately hosted by the six mighty casters from the Six-man Council.
As for the information Fisher has gathered during her travels around the world.
Among those six, one had long fallen in battle, two had died due to old age.
Of the remaining three, one vanished without a trace, another rumored to have lived near Joeyz Forest as Hops Adler, and Lachmont's grand mage, Majie'er.
Since Hops now has confirmed death information, excluding the vanished one…
For Fisher, searching for her sister.
Now the grand mage Majie'er residing in [Lachmont] became her last hope to find her sister!
If she didn't get an effective answer here today.
Then Fisher might never find another chance to seek her sister for the rest of her life.
This was news dire enough to be called a calamity.
But fortunately, Fisher was a heroine daring to embark on such a journey, even if the news was extremely unfavorable, she quickly gathered her emotions, quietly sighing:
"So that's how it is."
"I never thought that someone who could master the entire world would pass away so silently, in the future world, perhaps casters will indeed exit the stage of history as people say."
In response to Fisher's sigh, Il nodded earnestly:
"Who said otherwise!"
"I believe, in the future, magic will absolutely disappear from the world entirely, along with the casters, there will be no good ending."
"..."
Il and Fisher were discussing this matter.
Right then, Ronald suddenly interrupted with a very serious realization:
"Have you two noticed a problem?"
"We've been walking on this side for over two minutes, yet we have remained on this section of stairs!"
