The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　Although their previous speculations were reasonable and well-founded, they were still just speculations, not definitive proof.

　While this possibility exists, there must also be many other possibilities.

　Moreover, their speculation is based on normal logic. But things that defy common sense are not uncommon in this world.

　Everything needs to be verified before a final answer can be obtained.

　……

　Professor Cazell walked to the bedside and carefully observed the changes in Angus Jeffrey's face.

　But even after 10 o'clock, Angus Jeffrey remained lying motionless in bed, showing no signs of "waking up".

　Sister Kallian walked around the bed to the other side, scrutinizing Angus Jeffrey with a keen interest.

　Professor Sylph stood behind Professor Cazell, waiting patiently.

　Professor Lily flew directly above the hospital bed, crossed her arms, sat cross-legged in the air, and put on a serious expression.

　Professor Mitia, on the other hand, wore an expression similar to Sister Carlian's, showing great interest.

　Dark raised an eyebrow, deeply understanding Professor Mitia and Sister Carian's mindset.

　To be honest, from an outsider's perspective, this is indeed a very interesting thing.

　If the book "Into the Abyss" could truly enable a normal person to develop a second consciousness, then the value of that book would be significantly increased.

　He had even figured out how to use it!

　He has always been worried that the "fusion materials" would become confused due to frequent "fusion", so he has not helped "fusion materials" such as "Fantasy Beast: Fantasy Sheep" to develop intelligence.

　But if we could use the specialization of "Walking into the Abyss" to cultivate a second consciousness specifically for "fusion", wouldn't that perfectly solve this problem?

　Therefore, he was looking forward to the results of the subsequent verification.

　……

　"Let's wait and see."

　Professor Kazel said in a low voice.

　He preferred to wait for Angus Jeffrey's second consciousness to awaken naturally.

　That way, we'll be able to observe more things.

　Everyone was patient enough, even Professor Lily kept her lips tightly closed and didn't say a word.

　Dark walked to the bedside and glanced around.

　To avoid waking Angus Jeffrey, they did not turn on the lights.

　The light in the ward was barely enough to see clearly.

　This suddenly gave Dark a thought: "If Angus Jeffrey woke up normally at this moment and suddenly found so many people standing silently by his bedside, would he really be so frightened that he would have a mental breakdown?"

　"Probably not." Dark shook his head again, thinking, "He's been through a lot, after all. He wouldn't be scared by something like this."

　So Dak stopped overthinking and waited patiently.

　"Tick, tick..."

　The pointer slowly rotated.

　One minute, two minutes... five minutes, six minutes...

　In the seventh minute, Angus Jeffrey's brow finally twitched!

　It's been less than ten minutes since Angus Jeffrey closed his eyes and fell asleep.

　It's practically impossible for him to wake up naturally when the surrounding environment hasn't changed much.

　If he opens his eyes at this moment, it is highly likely that it is a "second consciousness"!

　Upon realizing this, the professors immediately focused their attention, their gazes locking onto his face.

　Then, under these circumstances, Angus Jeffrey's panda eyes opened quite naturally.

　In that instant, the numerous figures standing on either side of the hospital bed, as well as those floating above it, all came into his view.

　The screams were absorbed by the night and did not travel outside the ward.

　Professor Cazell's eyes suddenly lit up with golden light, and Angus Jeffrey's inner thoughts were laid bare before him without any concealment.

　"It's a second consciousness!"

　Professor Cazell said this very quickly, then raised his wand and gently touched Angus Jeffrey's forehead. A magic circle lit up and then disappeared.

　Dark thought he had intervened to calm Angus Jeffrey's "second consciousness," but he hadn't.

　Angus Jeffrey's "second consciousness" is still screaming.

　"It seems his second sense lacks training."

　Dak pondered for a moment, then thought to himself.

　After Professor Cazell confirmed it, Sister Kallian, Professor Mitia, and Professor Lily almost simultaneously lit up with interest.

　However, Professor Sylph beat them to it, saying to Professor Cazell, "Ask him if he bred the 'Cerebrolyst'."

　Professor Cazell raised his wand and drew a circle, saying gently, "Don't be afraid."

　Then Angus Jeffrey's "second consciousness" screamed even louder.

　"Hehe." Lily burst into laughter.

　Upon hearing this eerie laughter, Angus Jeffrey suddenly made a move—he pulled his right hand out from under the covers and reached for the headboard.

　Unfortunately, there were no magic cards by his bedside.

　Professor Sylph confiscated his entire set of magic cards, including the card packs.

　Angus Jeffrey, who had been searching for a while but found nothing, was like a swordsman who had lost his sword; his face was pale, his expression panicked, and he was even more frightened.

　But his lung capacity limited the duration of his screams. He finally stopped screaming, then suddenly closed his eyes, tensed his body, and looked like he wanted to fall asleep immediately.

　“This is not a dream…” Professor Kazel said with a hint of helplessness.

　He discovered that Angus Jeffrey's second consciousness seemed even more cowardly than he himself.

　……

　"Snap!" Professor Mitis walked to the wall and suddenly turned on the light.

　The bright white light illuminated the ward and dispelled the chill.

　Angus Jeffrey trembled all over, but still managed to quietly open his eyes under the stimulation of the light.

　Then he immediately saw Professor Lily, who was laughing heartily.

　"The Dean of the Magic Academy?"

　The moment this thought crossed his mind, Angus Jeffrey was no longer so afraid.

　His face stiffened as he looked to both sides, identifying the identities of the other professors one by one, before finally fixing his gaze on the only student present besides himself.

　His expression changed drastically, but driven by his desire to understand the situation, he still asked with difficulty, "Excuse me, what happened?"

　“It’s nothing,” Professor Cazell said gently, trying to soothe his fear with words.

　Without knowing how much information this "second consciousness" could share with the "first consciousness," Professor Kazel had no intention of revealing its identity.

　Seeing that Angus Jeffrey's expression had calmed down slightly, he continued, "Do you know 'Into the Abyss'?"

　The answer is certainly known, but through this question, Professor Cazell can glean more relevant information from Angus Jeffrey's thinking.

　Therefore, before Angus Jeffrey could answer, he had already obtained the necessary information.

　"I see. You have a much more detailed understanding of 'Into the Abyss,' and you study and experiment with it every night."

　Professor Cazell nodded slightly, then asked, "Have you ever bred 'Cerebrolysmic Demons'?"

　Angus Jeffrey's eyes widened suddenly, and he stared at Professor Cazell without moving.

　Professor Cazell frowned and asked in confusion, "It wasn't you?"

　"What happened?" Professor Sylph asked immediately after hearing this.

　Professor Cazell's tone turned slightly somber as he said, "Jeffrey... at least this Jeffrey, after obtaining 'Into the Abyss,' he was extremely cautious and never cultivated a complete demon. If there isn't a third Jeffrey, then the 'Cerebrolysmic Demon' parasitizing Fern Morse's brain wasn't cultivated by him."

　"Things have gotten complicated..."

　“It’s getting interesting!”

　"It's getting more interesting!"

　The professors reacted in different ways.

　Dak frowned, deep in thought.

　Angus Jeffrey did indeed develop a second consciousness, and from what we can see now, this second consciousness is timid and cautious, and is specifically responsible for researching and experimenting with "Into the Abyss".

　Angus Jeffrey's magical spirits were all forged by him in the dead of night.

　Now that this second consciousness has awakened, it becomes extremely easy to find out the location of his experimental site.

　Given that Angus Jeffrey's brain had been eroded, there is certainly the possibility that his memories had been re-edited.

　But once we find Angus Jeffrey's experimental site, many things will become clear.

　Professor Cazell was clearly aware of this as well, so he immediately began to use language to guide Angus Jeffrey's "second consciousness" to recall his past experimental experiences.

　Nothing in Angus Jeffrey's mind could escape Professor Cazell's scrutiny.

　Therefore, Professor Cazell soon made a contribution.

　But his expression also turned serious.

　“Where?” Professor Sylph asked.

　Professor Cazell said in a deep voice, "According to him, it's in a secret passage."

　"A secret passage?" Professor Sylph frowned sharply.

　The seal on the entrance to the secret passage has not yet been lifted, and the number of "access cards" issued to date is extremely limited.

　Moreover, Angus Jeffrey is not on the list.

　But Angus Jeffrey couldn't possibly lie to Professor Cazell.

　……

　As if sensing Professor Sylph's confusion, Professor Cazell looked at Angus Jeffrey and asked kindly, "Could you take us to see your laboratory?"

　Angus Jeffrey, who hadn't actually said a word since asking "Excuse me, what happened?", finally found a chance to speak: "Okay."

　Surrounded by professors, Angus Jeffrey couldn't possibly say "no."

　After struggling to say "okay," Angus Jeffrey subconsciously reached for the headboard again.

　Unable to find his card pack, Angus Jeffrey could only ask helplessly, "Professor Cazell, where's my card pack?"

　Professor Cazell turned and winked at Professor Sylph.

　Professor Sylph simply raised her hand and waved it, and Angus Jeffrey's card pack appeared in her palm.

　Aside from temporarily taking "Demon King Amster", she did nothing else with the card pack.

　Angus Jeffrey was visibly delighted to get his card holder back. He got out of bed, slipped on a pair of slippers, and prepared to leave.

　“Follow me.”

　……

　Therefore, the group quickly left the medical room.

　Angus Jeffrey composed himself and, under the "protection" of the professors, headed towards the secret passage.

　Before 11 o'clock, the patrolling golems inside the castle would not attack, and the journey was very smooth.

　Not long after, they arrived at the entrance to a secret passage.

　Although the entrance was just an ordinary wall before it was infused with magic, many people have undoubtedly gone in and out of it now.

　When Professor Sylph saw Angus Jeffrey stop there, she immediately asked, "Did you enter the secret passage from here?"

　Angus Jeffrey forced a smile and said, "Yes, Vice Principal."

　Professor Sylph frowned even more deeply, as she clearly sensed that the seal on the secret passage remained intact, without the slightest sign of damage.
