Tribulation of Mysteries

Chapter 39:

Due to the emergency, Knight Iman had to stay in the guest room to avoid arousing suspicion. The banquet was cancelled, of course.

Not only that, but Albert, Eight-Finger and the other higher-ups of the territory had also come to Aaron’s study.

“This matter is not easy to handle.”

Albert frowned, “We can’t completely confirm that Knight Iman is innocent. Your safety must be completely guaranteed, And since a noble is involved I think we should inform Sotos Castle immediately.”

“And then? If this matter blows up the people of the Upper Forest who sympathise with Iman will be completely at odds with us and cut off from us? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that such a crude method of assassination will not succeed. Maybe they want to frame Iman. After all, his reputation in the Upper Green Forest is not bad, and he can arouse widespread sympathy. As for my father.”

Aaron shook his head, “He may not care whether Iman is innocent or not. Instead, he will see this as an opportunity to deprive Knight Iman of his territory. After all, I do have a younger brother!”

In this regard, Madame Sonia would definitely push for it.

“So we must unravel the conspiracy as quickly as possible, catch the real bandits, and then minimise the consequences.”

He concluded.

“Mokto’s condition is not good. I’m afraid it will be difficult to interrogate him. As for the assassins, we won’t be able to get anything out of them.” Albert frowned and said hesitantly.

“It’s all right. You can go first.”

Aaron chased everyone out and took out a detailed map of the area, as well as candles, incense, essential oils, spirit pendulums and other props.

He could not be bothered to find evidence to solve the case. Since the chrysalis spirituality was still present, he could use mysticism to solve the problem!

“Divination to find people is on a completely different level from ordinary pathfinding spells. It’s considered a more advanced mystical ritual.”

“Moreover, it is easily disrupted and resisted. Be it the person’s qualifications, other mystical items on them, or even the protection of a higher being, they can all cause interference!”

Take Lin for example. Not only did she have a rank equivalent to the Burning Son, but she was also contaminated by the Mother Tree of Flesh. Which made it very difficult to divine her. In the entire Black Sun Cult, only the High Priest could do it.

But in the real world?

“Everyone is a mortal. My mystical qualification alone is half a level higher than others… Besides, if the Green Banyan Tree Grandmother doesn’t really exist, there’s no high-level being, So the interference I should receive is almost zero!”

“As long as I can perform the ritual, I’ll definitely be able to find the mastermind!”

Aaron quickly drew a ritual on the table and injected his own spirituality into it.

He immediately lit the candles to create a sealed environment. Then he added essential oils and incense to help him enter a meditative state more quickly.

Whoosh!

It was as if an invisible wall had formed in the closed study room.

“Since there is no God in this world, I can’t communicate with myself in the dream. However, I’ll use myself as the main body for the ritual…”

At this thought, Aaron activated his spirituality and spoke in the language of the other world.

“I invite the Creator above the Creator!”

“The spirit of illusion that wanders in the unknown, The absolute neutral existence, The silent observer!”

“Please give me the ability to see through fate!”

…

Vaguely, Aaron seemed to hear his own voice echoing in his ears, but he made no attempt to answer the prayer.

After all, he had tried several times before, and all of them had failed.

He simply picked up the spirit pendulum and placed it on the map, causing the spirit pendulum to spin clockwise.

“The location of the mastermind behind the assassination!”

“The location of the mastermind behind the assassination!”

“The location of the mastermind behind the assassination!”

At the same time, Aaron silently recited what he wanted to know.

One round, two rounds, three rounds.

Finally, the spirit pendulum pointed diagonally to a certain spot on the map in a way that defied the laws of physics, as if it were drawn there by an invisible force.

“Success.”

Aaron stared at the map, a cold smile appearing on his face. “He’s actually hiding in my territory?”

He memorised the location on the map and finished the ritual.

The next moment, Aaron’s vision turned black and he almost fainted.

“My spirituality has completely dried up. It hasn’t even been a day and it’s disappearing even faster. But that’s to be expected.”

“What a pity. Chrysalis spirituality is quite useful.”

“But what I want most of all is the ability to heal, to become immortal and to control minds.”

In this demon-free world, if given the choice of extraordinary abilities, Aaron would naturally prefer mind manipulation and immortality.

With the ability to control people, he could easily obtain a large amount of manpower and wealth from any lord or king. Then he could hide behind the scenes and control everything.

If there was enough time, ruling the world wouldn’t be an illusion!

Unfortunately, the rules of dissipating spirituality made immortality an extravagant hope. Therefore, Aaron preferred to find a path that leaned towards charming people and mind control.

There were some hidden dangers of chaos in the mix of different paths, and he preferred a pure path.

“Oh?”

Aaron cleared the table and suddenly looked at his spirit pendulum. There was a small crystal on a thin string, and the quality of the crystal wasn’t very good.

But at that moment that crystal seemed to have become a little more crystalline.

“There is a feeling of spirituality. Although it’s very vague and faint, it’s almost like there’s nothing… Is that because of the ritual?”

Aaron pondered. “Maybe the spirituality in this world isn’t dissipating, but the density is spreading? Just as water from a high place will always flow to a low place… The little spirituality I have brought into the world is like a drop of ink being dispersed into the sea. So it’s no different from nothing? ”

“This is a very interesting subject for research.”

He put the object down and called the people outside. “I’ve already confirmed that the mastermind is here!”

Aaron pointed at the map. “Go and prepare. Also, invite Knight Iman here.”

Albert had a confused look on his face. What had he missed?

Why did the Lord confirm that there was another mastermind behind the scenes after standing outside for a while? Did he even find the hideout directly?

Eight-Fingers and the others thought even less. They followed the order and brought Knight Iman here.

“Lord Aaron.”

Knight Iman’s expression was slightly tired, but he still bowed carefully.

“Knight Iman, I’ve already found the mastermind. Are you ready to arrest him and prove your innocence?”

Aaron said with a smile.

“Of course!”

Knight Iman looked up, his eyes filled with surprise. “I’m ready!”
