Cloud Thinking

Chapter 245 Casper

While everyone in the conference room was still thinking about whether Roden's plan was feasible and whether they should choose to join in, a timid guy was squatting outside the most remote room on the fourth floor of the manor.

Mi Rang pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the movements in the house. After confirming that the person was still inside, he scratched his head helplessly and speechlessly, and then he began to think about why he did such a thing for Helia.

Of course, he knew the person in the room. He knew that the other party was the young master of the Tanasha family and a gifted magician in the magic world. He was a powerful character whom he could not afford to offend.

He also seriously suspected that the other party must know that he was squatting outside his house and that he was monitoring him.

Helia really knows how to make trouble for him! Mirang thought.

Not all guests attending the banquet were qualified to enter the conference hall to discuss matters, so there were still many people resting in the guest rooms on the fourth floor. If any loud noise was made, others would definitely hear it.

Just as he was lost in thought about something else, there was a loud noise suddenly coming from upstairs, followed by the sound of fighting, which was still loud even though there was a floor between them.

Mi Rang was frightened and trembled. Before he could react, he heard footsteps in the next room. Without thinking too much, he jumped out of the window at the end of the corridor and hung himself outside the window.

Aphra heard the loud noise upstairs which didn't sound like anything serious, and opened the door worriedly, thinking of finding someone to ask what was going on.

But there was no one outside the corridor. She looked around and saw that no one came out to investigate, so she shrank back, half afraid and half worried, and closed the door tightly.

Mi Rang breathed a sigh of relief, climbed out the window and jumped back, but his hands were hurt from hanging there for a while, and he didn't know how Helia had managed to get in.

By the way, there should be a soundproof barrier in the conference room upstairs to prevent others from eavesdropping. Why is there such a loud noise all of a sudden? Could it be that the magic has failed?

Mi Rang thought about it for a long time. Apart from Helia, he couldn't think of anyone else who would be so bold as to make such a noise in such an occasion.

After nearly half an hour, Mi Rang was getting a little sleepy. Suddenly, he was awakened by a series of ping-pong sounds. He looked towards the next room, not sure whether to knock on the door and inquire about the situation.

If he remembered correctly, the person resting in the next room was a lady from the Turafa family, Alfie's fiancée.

Could something have happened? Should I go and lend a hand or just wait and see?

Mi Rang was still struggling and hesitating, and then a short, quick scream was heard, which was still clear through the door, and then there was no movement.

This, this, this! Something has happened!

In the end, Mi Rang couldn't overcome his conscience and was about to go forward and knock on the door. However, before his hand even touched the door, it opened, revealing a face that he was extremely familiar with.

"!" Mirang was a little surprised by Helia's sudden appearance, his eyes widened, but fortunately he restrained himself and didn't scream.

Helia patted his shoulder and pointed to the next room, silently asking what the situation was.

Mi Rang gave her an OK gesture, indicating that the person was inside and had not run away.

Helia opened the door, turned sideways, and pointed inside the house, allowing Mirang to see the situation clearly - the vase ornaments on the table by the window were broken all over the floor, the window was open, and the wind was blowing in, pulling the curtains apart.

Aphra, who was supposed to be resting in the house, was now lying on the sofa, obviously unconscious.

Helia pulled Mirang into the house, glanced at Afra on the sofa, and signaled her to help her keep an eye on this guy, while she herself was going to visit the genius boy in Tanasha's family next door.

If you say Helia is impolite, she knew to knock on the door before entering the house. If you say she is polite, she broke into the house through the window.

She knocked on the door three times politely, and without caring whether the person inside answered or not, she just turned the doorknob.

Of course, it couldn't be opened because it was locked from the inside, but this didn't bother Helia. She only needed to use a little brute force to remove all obstacles.

The young man in the room was reading a book with his head down. The warm yellow light shone on him, as if he was coated with a layer of gold, making him feel bright and warm.

His long black hair was simply braided into a pigtail and hung down on his shoulders. The tassel earrings on his ears made his fair skin, handsome face, gentle and virtuous, and quite charming.

It seemed that he was getting ready to rest. He was dressed casually and loosely, with a small blanket covering his legs. He looked lazy and casual, which made Helia a little confused.

"Hello, Casper~" Helia waved her hand familiarly and walked into the house, and even closed the door for her considerately.

The long-haired young man ignored Helia and continued to flip through the book in his hand. He was neither surprised nor reacted to the uninvited guest, as if the person who came in was not a person but a ball of air.

Helia didn't like the feeling of being ignored, so she walked up and snatched the book from the person's hand, flipping to the cover and looking at the title - Glory of the Empire.

Uh... a book about the glorious rise of the Otis Empire. As for whether the content is true or not, and how much of it is embellished and exaggerated, she doesn't know.

After his book was snatched away, Casper just looked up at her lightly without any emotion, then he lifted the blanket from his legs, stood up and walked towards the bedroom.

This is a suite with a bedroom, a living room, and a kitchen, which can be used as a home.

Helia blocked his way directly, threw the book onto the sofa beside him, and smiled as she moved her face closer to him.

"Why do you dislike me so much? Don't you even ask me why I came to see you? Aren't you curious at all?"

Casper went left, Helia also went left, he went right, she also went right, but they just wouldn't let him pass or move forward.

Helia was about the same height as him, and was even stronger and more solid than him. After all, Tanasha's family were all short-lived, so how could they compare with her who had eaten a dragon's heart?

When she put the pestle there, she was like a small hill, with the momentum of "I planted this tree, I opened this road, if you want to pass through here, you have to leave some money to buy your life."

This blockage was a real one. If she didn't give way, Casper wouldn't be able to pass.

Now Casper had to look the person in front of him. He stared at the other's blue eyes and red hair, frowning slightly, but quickly smoothed over.

"What do you want from me?" He spoke very softly, but his voice was very clear and not ambiguous. His tone was also very calm, making it hard to guess what his mood was.

Helia did not answer directly, but analyzed leisurely: "You are not surprised to see me, which means you knew I would come and see you."

"But since you knew I was coming to see you, why didn't you know what I was going to do? Didn't your precognitive magic tell you?"

Casper lowered his eyes, avoiding Helia's gaze that almost pierced through him, and replied evasively: "Precognitive magic is not omnipotent magic."

"Is that so?" Helia's expression showed disbelief.

There was something fishy about Casper, but she didn't have time to figure out what he was trying to do. Anyway, the reason she came back was for him.

Alfie had told her in advance that the Tanasha family had sent two people, and Helia had confirmed it herself, and Roden was aware that she would come.

In other words, someone on Tanasha's side had the magic of predictive knowledge and had detected her arrival.

But Helia knew very well how special she was.

Her soul comes from another world, and her body is a container of God. She is supposed to be a person who does not exist in this world and is not recognized by the order of this world.

Even the gods in heaven could not foresee her fate, so how could the short-lived ghosts of Tanasha's family possibly be able to glimpse into their own future?

Even though this future is not far away and the scenes she peeked into are not rich, she was indeed peeked into.

The little fox Euros was able to peek into himself more than a decade later, firstly because of his identity as a messenger of God, secondly because he was originally a member of the Tanasha family, and thirdly because he and Helia did have an unbreakable bond.

Taking Euros as an example, the guy who could spy her presence at the meeting must not be a simple person. He must at least be related to God, otherwise he would not be qualified.

This deduction, combined with the family information provided by Alfie, quickly confirmed that one of the two people who attended the meeting with Tanasha must be the famous young master of the family, who made the prophecy about her.

Since Tanasha dares to release such a big treasure, don't blame her for snatching it.

"Anyway, since you didn't react much to my coming, I think you guessed what I was going to do." Helia leaned over and made a gesture of invitation, "I don't want to embarrass you too much, so just follow me obediently and you'll suffer less."

Casper chuckled, looked at Helia, and asked, "Why?"

"What makes you think you can take me away?"

Helia scratched her chin, took a breath, and pretended to be thinking. She replied, "Maybe, it's because I am a person who will do anything to achieve my goals."

"Besides, do you think someone like me would come to you without any certainty?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Helia aimed her fist at Pakasper's abdomen. If he was hit, he would not only fly out, but also fly out with his body.

However, since Casper had guessed Helia's arrival, it was impossible for him to be completely unprepared. When his fist hit a soft spot other than his abdomen, a clanging sound was made, and Helia easily stepped back and kept some distance.

Sure enough, about one meter in front of Casper's abdomen, a silver-white barrier flashed faintly, but soon disappeared into the air.

"Ha! Are you guarding against me? Huh?" Helia just smiled and shook her already red fist, which showed how much strength she had used just now.

Although she knew that the other party was on guard against her, Helia still did not spare her fists. After adjusting herself, she rushed forward again, determined to beat Casper.

Casper was actually a little surprised at Helia's close combat skills. After all, he only knew that Helia was a magician, but he didn't know that she was also good at close combat.

But it was of no avail. With his strength as a ninth-rank great magician, he would never allow Helia to touch him.

But he mostly dodged and didn't take the initiative to attack. His slippery dodging made Helia a little annoyed.

Just come clean.

She rummaged through the package on her back, and when Casper wasn't paying attention, she threw a black thing over.

Casper naturally thought it was a hidden weapon and dodged it by simply turning sideways, but in order to avoid it being something that would explode, he had to keep his eyes on it and keep an eye on its condition.

As a result, the moment he saw the true appearance of that thing, his eyes were immediately filled with soreness and pain, and everything in front of him became blurry and distorted.

What the hell?! A dragon cub?! Why is it here?

Casper raised his hand to cover his eyes, which were tightly closed due to pain, and his mind raced, thinking about Helia's intentions.

But he soon figured it out. He couldn't see, but he could hear the sound of the other party hitting the protective shield on his body again and again. She was like a stubborn bull. Even though the back of her hand was broken and bleeding, she still kept hitting the "wall" relentlessly.

Since Helia used a powerful weapon, Casper would not be outdone. As he raised his hand, the whole room was instantly filled with the light emitted by the activated magic circle. It was colorful and almost everything in sight was covered by the magic circle.

Helia's eyes were dazzled by the sudden light, but she quickly took out the bottle of divine blood and threw it on the ground. The magic circles all fell silent at once, and the sounds of shattering came one after another. The broken light spots were like fireflies in summer, incredibly beautiful.

But she was in no mood to appreciate it. She only wanted to break through the last layer of protection on Casper's body. With her unremitting efforts and endless energy, she finally hit the opponent's waist with a real punch, knocking him directly onto the sofa.

"Ouch!" Casper was in so much pain that he couldn't hold back the sound of pain. He curled up his body and protected the place where he had just been hit.

No matter how hard he tried, he never expected why Helia was so strong! Before, there was a barrier to block him, and he didn't know why Helia was always obsessed with close combat.

Now he figured it out! It turned out that it was because of this guy's strong body! This punch hurt so much that he wondered if his internal organs were about to be displaced.

"Huh! So cool!" Helia let out a long breath, swung her bloody hands nonchalantly, and walked towards Casper step by step.

She was still holding the Watersisse that she had just thrown out but quickly ran to catch. Father God was certainly useful as a hidden weapon, but she didn't dare to really throw him to the ground.

If she angered Him, Helia would be in trouble.

She stuffed the dragon cub form of Wattsisse back into the wrapping on her back and held it like a child, protecting it against her chest.

If she didn't have some skills, how could she dare to come back to find Casper? Her previous preparations were worth it.

Helia grabbed Casper by the back of his collar and lifted him up, admiring his miserable appearance.

So what if he was a ninth-rank great magician? In the eyes of the gods, he was just an ant that could do a little more.
