The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem

"Giving up the position of princess...seems like it's some kind of strategy."

Compared to the astonishment of ordinary people, Aarons did not react much to Klia's announcement.

Although he was a little surprised at first, he soon realized that this was a strategy to force Duke Booker to reveal his true colors - and a few days later, an alien mercenary belonging to the Kulan Mercenary Group brought him a secret letter written by Xia Ye, which further confirmed his guess.

"I didn't expect them to run into that bastard Kuran there... For now, there's no need to worry."

Duke Booker had been recruiting mercenaries to hunt monsters, so it was not surprising that Kuran would appear there.

However, Xia Ye's letter specifically mentioned the Son of the Star, which surprised him a little.

Because the new girl who came to his house claimed to be the sister of the Son of Star, and said that Aarons had some connection with the Son of Star... The subtle connection between them made him feel a little suspicious.

After telling the non-human girl named Yalu what was mentioned in the letter, she gave an uncertain answer.

"Sister, it hasn't awakened yet. I don't know who it is."

"Will it be too late when she really wakes up?"

"Sister will become very strong. Humans will not be able to defeat her. Brother, don't worry."

Aarons was originally worried that the Child of the Star would be controlled by others after awakening, but Yalu said that there was no need to worry about it.

According to Yalu's explanation, after the Child of the Star truly awakens, he will not only gain the power of the planet, but will also be immune to human fighting spirit and magic.

After asking a few more questions, Aarons learned a key piece of information.

——The so-called star power is actually spiritual power.

"In other words, the magic source stone used by humans is actually equivalent to the blood of the planet?"

After telling Jiangyue his guess, the sage also agreed with it.

"In fact, the fighting spirit and magic used by humans were originally learned from magical beasts. Magic beasts are naturally able to transform their powerful vitality into special power, and humans are just their imitators."

Although these forces have indeed given humans the right to compete for living territories, there have always been people in the academic community who believe that humans have actually gone astray.

"If the Star Child that Miss Yang mentioned really has the power to control spiritual power at will, then it means that humans have chosen the wrong path from the beginning."

"…Is it too late for me to start learning how to use spiritual power now?"

"Marquis, you're overthinking it. I don't think spiritual power is the kind of power that is suitable for humans to directly control with their bodies. Miss Spider has also come to a similar conclusion."

The essence of magic source stone, or high-density carbon uranium crystals, is actually a geothermal mineral that can release high-energy radiation.

The spell created by Jiangyue can transform high-energy radiation into magic power, and after the mutation transformation, the magic source stone can release huge heat energy.

How can humans manipulate radiation and heat? Even Karin, who can use this power to fight, can only absorb and release it.

"I think the so-called Star Child should be able to help humans further understand how to use energy, so that human civilization can develop to the level where they can leave the planet and travel to other worlds."

Since this guess was quite reasonable, Aarons no longer considered practicing.

However, another thing Xia Ye mentioned in the letter aroused the sage's great interest.

"Your Highness said that the people of the Covenant Alliance discovered a crystal that can store magic power? It is said to be a companion ore of the magic source stone... How come I have never seen it before?"

"Is the mineral vein environment here different from that of the other party?"

"Maybe... I've never been that far away, so I'm not sure what's there."

"Yalu, I know."

Although Aarons and Jiang Yue had no idea about this, at this moment, the girl who had always been following Aarons suddenly said something unexpected.

"The magic crystal needs to be compressed before it can appear."

"Compression... You said compression?! How could I forget this method... Marquis, is Miss Yalu really the old marquis's illegitimate daughter?"

"How is that possible..."

Because Jiangyue's mind had been secretly tampered with, in her eyes, Yalu was just an ordinary little girl with beautiful black hair.

——Only Aarons could see her snake-like vertical pupils, her sharp long ears, and the faint red and blue fluorescence in her hair.

"I have to verify this matter quickly... Sorry, Marquis, I'm afraid I won't have time to accompany you these days."

"It doesn't matter. Business is more important. Yalu, let's go back."

Apart from always sticking to Aarons, Yalu did not show any abnormality in front of outsiders - even if she did something suspicious, she could use her terrifying mental power to erase the other party's sense of disobedience.

Just now when Aarons was giving advice to Jiangyue, he discovered that she was secretly using her mental power on the sage.

"…So who are you?"

"Brother, you'll be scared. So, Yalu, don't tell me."

"Okay, I won't ask anymore."

Although Yalu never mentioned her true identity, when Aarons thought about her calling Star Child "sister", he knew that she was definitely not a normal human being.

Aarons actually didn't mind the other party keeping some secrets, because the girl not only had no hostility towards him, but would also actively use her mental power to help him search for and lock onto the hostility around him.

If you still want to get to the bottom of this matter, you would be too petty.

"Master, all the enemies lurking outside the base have been cleared out."

"Thank you for your hard work. I don't have anything else to do. You can take a rest first."

"Yes, and I would also like to thank Ms. Yalu for her assistance."

With the addition of such an extra-specification radar at home, Mo Qianyun's security work became a lot easier.

As long as Yalu points out the direction, Mo Qianyun can attack immediately and quickly annihilate the mercenaries or killers who try to approach the base.

Of course, Mo Qianyun, who was also affected by the mental power, was completely unaware that there was anything unusual about the girl.

"Brother, Yalu is amazing."

"It's really amazing...but am I becoming less and less useful?"

Psychic detection was one of Aarons' few specialties, but the appearance of Yalu made this ability unnecessary.

Although his safety was effectively guaranteed, Aarons only felt that the value of his existence was becoming increasingly weak.

——Maybe this family doesn’t need me at all.

"Brother, that's strange."

As if she could sense the depression and emptiness in Aarons' heart, the inhuman girl tilted her head and looked at Aarons for a long time, but in the end she did nothing.

Because she didn't understand why Aarons had such an idea, nor did she know what she could do.

"Don't worry, I'm fine...Okay, now it's time to study the plan for preparation for war."
