That owl?

That owl from wizarding legends?

Thoughts flashed through Lumian's mind like lightning, and the blood in his body seemed to be frozen in an instant.

At this moment, he was more frightened than when he saw the monster with three faces.

After all, this is reality, and the ruins are a dream.

Even if you die in the dream, reality will die with you, and there will still be a layer of separation psychologically.

"what to do?

"Will it affect Aurore?

"..."

While Lumian was trying his best to think of countermeasures, the owl made no other movements and looked at him quietly, as if it was conducting some kind of inspection.

After a few seconds, the owl spread its wings and flew towards the distant mountains and forests.

On the way, it glided downward and disappeared somewhere in the village of Kordu.

Lumian didn't calm down until he could no longer see the owl.

He sat down on the chair and raised his hand to touch his forehead.

It was all wet with sweat.

"Is it really that owl in the wizarding legend?

"Has it really lived for so many years?

"Anyway, it is different from other owls, its eyes are not dull, it is more like a human being...

"If it was really that owl, why did it fly outside my window just because I wanted to investigate the wizard legend? But we have given up...

"It looked at me like this for a few times and then left...

"I don't know if it will come again in the future, or if it will affect Aurore..."

Since nothing happened for the time being, Lumian wanted to observe for a few more days, but considering that it might implicate Aurore, he felt that he could not hide it from his sister.

After leaving the room, he saw that Aurore hadn't gotten up yet. He went down to the first floor and made breakfast, which was all his sister's favorites:

Soft-boiled omelettes, pancakes with frosting, plain toast with jam...

Next time I have to make noodles, this time with meat sauce... Seeing that the grid for noodles was empty, Lumian decided to fill it up in the next two days.

This is Aurore's favorite staple food.

Aurore was wearing a nightgown and stroking her blond hair. When she came down the stairs, food was already placed on the kitchen table.

"Morning." She covered her mouth and yawned.

Lumian smiled and said:

"It is late.

"Don't you always say that planning for the day should start early in the morning?"

"Yes, my plan is to sleep." Aurore sat down, drank milk, and had breakfast.

Lumian sat down across from the six-person table, gnawing pancakes and said casually:

"I have been in the village these days to find out the truth of those legends."

"Why?" Aurore asked.

Lumian was very candid:

"Didn't you agree to help me obtain extraordinary power? I just thought that through my own efforts, there might be clues hidden in those legends."

"It's almost impossible." Aurore commented casually. "Those legends have either been adapted over several generations and have been completely changed beyond recognition, or they were written down by some people when they had hallucinations. They are meaningless. Well, they may also be written by a specially compiled

A story as an excuse, haha, and the contribution of a fun-loving person like you."

"What?" Lumian didn't understand what Aurore meant by "fun man".

It's not even Intis.

"The full name is Prank Lover." Aurore explained simply, then frowned, "You suddenly told me this, because you got into trouble and you knew you should go home and ask your sister for help?"

"It was an accident, but not enough to cause trouble." Lumian said confidently.

He organized the following language:

"My first target is the wizard legend."

"What wizard legend?" Aurore looked confused.

"You haven't heard of it?" Lumian was quite surprised. "A long time ago, a man died suddenly in the village. When he was buried, an owl flew over and stayed at the head of his bed until the body was lifted.

Then he flew away. After that, the body became very heavy and it took nine oxen to pull the coffin. Only then did the villagers know that the man was a wizard in life."

Aurore listened carefully:

"I really didn't notice such a legend before."

Unscientific... Lumian is unbelievable.

Although Aurore stays at home most of the time, she still goes out a few days a month to chat with Naroka and other old ladies, tell stories to children, and is very interested in various rumors about Kordu Village.

Understood, how could she not have heard of this wizard legend that many people know?

Moreover, this house was built on the wizard’s original home!

Lumian had previously suspected that the reason why Aurore chose to settle in the village of Kordu was to get the wizard's treasure and successfully obtain extraordinary power based on it.

"Then what?" Aurore asked calmly.

Lumian answered truthfully:

"We asked the elders in the village to confirm that this had really happened, but it had been decades ago, and the wizard's house had been burned down by the church. This is the land you bought."

"Really?" Aurore was obviously a little surprised, "I said, there must be something wrong with the price they sold my land at which was cheaper than normal... I thought it was my sweet mouth that would make the old ladies happy.

…”

She thought for a while and then said:

"The wizard's body was burned by the church?"

"Yes, the ashes are buried in the cemetery next to the church." Lumian nodded.

He continued:

"We have given up on this matter because all clues have been interrupted. Who knows, when I woke up this morning, I saw an owl outside the window, which was very similar to the legendary owl."

"Are you sure?" Aurore looked a little solemn.

"Not sure, but it's really different from an ordinary owl." Lumian answered from an objective perspective.

Aurore thought for a while and said slowly:

"During this period, you are not allowed to leave the village, and you are not allowed to leave your home after dark until I investigate the situation."

Speaking of this, she smiled angrily and said:

"I told you, pursuing extraordinary power is a very dangerous thing. Look, trouble is coming!

"Fortunately, it seems that the other party has no malicious intent at present, and the problem should be solved relatively well."

I can rest assured that you are on guard... Lumian lowered his head and said crisply:

"Sister, I was wrong."

He immediately changed the topic:

"Have your pen pals written back?"

"How can it be so fast? It's not like generating, er, emails!" Aurore said "ha".

Doesn't mail mean letters and packages sent through the post office? Lumian doesn't quite understand.

He didn't care too much, after all, Aurore often used some strange words.

…………

The entrance to the old tavern.

Lumian stood there and looked around.

He knew that the lady who gave him the tarot cards should not have gotten up yet. This time he was looking for three foreigners, Ryan, Liya and Valentine.

As expected by Lumian, the three strangers occupied a table in the tavern and had breakfast.

Trout rolls, wine, mayonnaise bread... I ate quite well... Lumian observed for a few seconds and exited the old tavern without disturbing Liya and the others.

After a while, Ryan and the others came out, ready to continue walking in Kordu Village and look for someone to "chat" with.

Lumian came forward, opened his arms, and greeted with a bright smile:

"Good morning, my cabbages."
To be continued...
