I am the descendant of a dark wizard, and I will inherit the family fortune.

"Ah!"

Along with a slight chill, Alexander vaguely felt a pulling sensation on his body.

The pulling force was not strong, and Alexander felt strangely familiar with that direction...

Just as Alexander was wondering, the grass under his feet was affected, and circles of... whirlpools appeared?

The moment he saw the vortex, Alexander immediately thought of the space gate he had come from...

What does it mean?

The pulling sensation continued, and Alexander couldn't help but wonder: Is someone trying to take me away? No... Is it like they want me to go back?

……

Leon suddenly found that everything around him became very slow...

At first he thought time had stopped, but from the slow blinking and rising and falling chests of the people around him, he could tell that time had not stopped, it was just dozens or hundreds of times slower.

Whether it's the indigenous Goya or Beatrice...it's all the same, but he doesn't seem to be affected at all?

Leon even felt that he could take this opportunity to kill everyone.

But he didn't do that, because he couldn't guarantee that the little tree man would support him...

"Shhhhh..."

The leaves rustled softly.

Leon watched the little tree man's movements begin to get bigger. It clenched its little hands into fists and waved them hard towards the sky.

Leon:?

"Disgusting... sharp teeth... big mouth..."

The message was rather vague, and Leon had no idea what this abrupt statement meant. The little tree man didn't seem to want to explain, so he opened his hands and gestured...

"Protect... the tree..."

Protect big trees?

Leon looked at the big trees around him and pointed at one of them uncertainly.

"this?"

The little tree man nodded, but quickly shook his head.

It seemed like it wanted to jump off Jamie's body, but at some point, its feet had already sunk into Jamie's body, as if they were growing on top of it.

Unable to move, the little tree man hastily pointed to the ground, "Big tree! Big tree! Help... Leon protect the big tree... Reward..."

Before the little tree man could finish speaking, it turned into dots of green light and slowly dissipated into the air.

"..."

Time returned to normal. Beatrice and the others all looked terrified. What on earth had just happened?!

For a moment, she felt as if she was the only one left in the world!

Fortunately... they were not hurt...

Beatrice was just beginning to feel relieved when she saw Jamie in front of her.

"Little Lion...Jamie!"

At this time, Jamie could no longer answer Beatrice, because there was a small tree as tall as a person where Jamie had originally stood.

At the same time, there was a medium-sized round hole on the trunk of the small tree, which corresponded exactly to the location of Jamie's previous wound.

Beatrice stared at the small tree in front of her with wide eyes. The information she knew was definitely far beyond that of other wizards, but it was precisely because she knew so much that Beatrice was even more frightened.

"No...I can't...the curse won't work like this..."

Hegma and the others couldn't help but feel their scalps tingling when they saw Jamie's expression, especially when they heard Beatrice mumbling to herself. Obviously... their Miss Beatrice seemed unable to explain or accept it...

Goya and Vinculan looked at each other and saw surprise and joy in each other's eyes.

natural!

Great nature!

Wen Kulang laughed and said, "Long live nature!"

Leon was also reminded by Dora in advance that he should not "play with fire". Jamie used fire, so he was punished, but this punishment was not a curse, but a direct loss of life?

No, that's not it...

Leon looked at the tree man Jamie, then thought of the moment when time slowed down, the little tree man taking root in Jamie, and then thought of the leaves on Wen Kulang's face...

The two have one thing in common, that is, they both turned into trees, but Jamie came later and turned into a tree before Wen Kulang...

It was the little tree man who overdrew Jamie's life...

But the little tree man cannot do this casually, otherwise everyone who comes into the Black Bone Forest will die. Therefore, this behavior of the little tree man needs to be triggered, and the triggering condition is... fire?

……

On the other side, Alexander looked at his palm suspiciously. He turned it over and over but didn't feel anything unusual. It disappeared. The pulling sensation suddenly disappeared...

What exactly is going on?

Do you want to go out and ask Mr. Hemery?

Alexander thought about it and decided not to tell Hemeri or anyone else about this.

Although he had only been in the wizarding world for a short time, he had already learned a bit. Alexander's intuition told him that this matter was of great significance. If others knew about it, his attention would probably rise to a higher level, but correspondingly...

He was afraid that it would be even more difficult for him to return to his hometown to find He Mengsha...

Alexander has been feeling rather conflicted recently. He regrets that he did not express his feelings to Hermensa earlier, but he is also glad for it.

The last time Hemeri told him, since his news got out, all those street kids have disappeared...

This made Alexander regretful, but he didn't regret becoming a wizard like he did at the beginning. Instead, he regretted his own weakness...

Hemery noticed his change in attitude and praised him a few times, which made Alexander happy for most of the day...

Alexander silently recalled what Mr. Hemery had said: Genius... deserves preferential treatment...

So, someone wanted to protect me before?

Unable to get an answer for the time being, Alexander kept this question deep in his heart and then quickly rushed towards his set goal.

……

"Goya, perhaps we can talk."

Beatrice pulled out a khaki cylinder from her space ring. "You should recognize this thing. I don't want to end up with both of us getting hurt..."

Goya interrupted Beatrice coldly, "Both sides will suffer losses? Aren't you overestimating yourself?

As for the thunder storage jar in your hand, are you sure you dare to use it?"

Goya said, pointing at Jamie jokingly.

Beatrice gritted her teeth. "What do you want? Or the same conditions as before?"

"Yes, I can let you go alone, but they have to stay."

Jonzo and the others immediately looked at Beatrice anxiously, but Beatrice did not look at them and fell into silence.

Seeing this, Wen Kulang secretly made a gesture to Leon.

"You left me right."

On the left are Hegma and Rachel, and on the right is Jonzo...

Leon: ...

Without waiting for Leon to respond, Wen Kulang took the first step!

Leon couldn't help but curse inwardly, leaving two powerful ones for himself, this Wen Kulang really has no shame!
