Surviving The Fourth Calamity

Chapter 1932: Chapter 508: Hill Decides to Be a Good Homebody

’Aislin’ engaged in an exchange of lies and nonsense with Oliva and the few Sia Eight Rings, half-heartedly cooperating.

Although she knew that this seemingly meaningless chit-chat had its necessity... even if both parties knew the content of the conversation, at least on the surface, they shouldn’t acknowledge it.

But she really didn’t feel like bothering.

’Aislin’ was also aware that, given her current identity, she should appear more enthusiastic. Oliva had already glanced at her several times.

For Aislin, who always valued her unique status in the Ruth Faction, and would even pit her apprentice brothers and sisters for power struggles, it was crucial to present herself to the other side at Sia Tower and let them understand her importance.

However, ’Aislin’ leisurely cast a glance, her gaze circling the face of the white-robed mage sitting diagonally opposite her, then silently returned to her own feet... what she was most worried about now was whether her soul’s flaw had escaped Glaysia’s eyes.

She could feel that her main soul was at the very top of that White Tower.

Moreover, among the many sweeping glances, Fengo’s annoyingly sticky feeling was also there.

Ugh, disgusting guy! Disgusting wherever he goes!

’Aislin’s’ eyes flashed with a trace of disgust.

-----------------

Oliva felt like he couldn’t keep it up any longer.

At this point, he couldn’t even make anyone believe Aislin was just in a bad mood or something.

She was acting way too abnormal.

Turning into someone else seemed like not such a big deal at this moment!

The way she was behaving was like she was an alien from another world!

If it weren’t for knowing some of the details, Oliva would suspect Aislin had been parasitized by a clueless Stellar Realm creature after secretly playing with Meteor Summoning!

But her eyes occasionally lifted, inevitably landing on the face of that white-robed mage who had failed to secure a seat and ended up on the left chair.

If the result of being slightly slender in build and slightly slower in maintaining grace forced the beautiful white-robed mage into last place in this competition, then Aislin’s unabashed gaze began to gradually reveal a murderous intent in his eyes.

Oliva didn’t even dare to look up... because, due to the interaction with the Sia Eight Rings, he and Aislin were sitting side by side, facing each other.

And the one in Black Robe... maybe because this faction’s mages liked using thin swords, long whips, and the like, following their leader the ’Black Artist’s’ weapons, was really agile... seated right in the middle chair.

Under normal circumstances, Oliva and Aislin could slightly turn their heads to exchange friendly interactions with the two beside them.

And to respond positively to the third person, just a nod and a smile would suffice.

It was a perfectly arranged setting, yet because of ’Aislin’s’ casual responses and restless eyes, it all became awkward.

Oliva really felt like he couldn’t hold on any longer.

So, ’Aislin’s’ true nature is to extremely admire beauty, is it?

So, the so-called mask life of the real ’Aislin’, her obsession displayed for love, is just one percent of her real nature?

Other than that, Oliva really didn’t think there were any similarities between the two... his dear junior sister, although occasionally gets confused and sometimes is eager for quick success, is actually a girl very adept at maximizing profit and minimizing harm... although speaking harshly, it could also be called bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

But she would absolutely not behave so... inappropriately in such a setting.

Damn it!

That white-robed lad is good-looking, but... Aislin’s previous lovers weren’t lacking such types either!

What are you looking at! Even without mentioning who’s backing him, that one is still an Eighth Ring!

Oliva was really a bit worried that if this gathering continued, it might turn into a full-fledged fight.

-----------------

Of course, Ruth noticed ’Aislin’s’ behavior, and Oliva’s panicked and clueless little glances drew an even clearer picture... once again he profoundly understood just how breezy his first disciple’s hollow brain, that could only see surface appearances, really was.

Was the white-robed pretty boy truly angry?

He’s really happy, alright!

What type does Aislin like, and how could the Sia Tower not know?

When he visited the Tower of Dark Enigma for a short visit before, didn’t he know to change to a colder look for himself!

Back then, he even grew a full beard!

That was the normal choice to avoid attracting a certain lady’s attention.

Aislin is never the type to forcibly take what she wants; she’s more of a groveling admirer!

Although it might not be apparent at first, since she only gives out the real good stuff after it’s in her grasp.

However, if you pay attention to her irrational behaviors, it’s clear that those who make her work hard to pursue them, especially for a longer period, end up with more good stuff.

If one can hold back from directly asking Aislin for anything, her affection will last longer for them... Hence, the better one performs, the more they receive.

Aislin has lived for so long, and it’s not just those few pretty boys who almost got her into trouble.

It’s just that those easy-to-manage ones get discarded before they even gain any fame.

So, as long as Aislin is still kicking, Ruth would never comment on her views on love... It all seems deserved.

As long as one is smart and genuinely doesn’t want to be pestered by Aislin, there are always ways to deal with it.

The White Robe Mage dressing up like this clearly has his plans... It’s obvious he wants to connect emotionally with Aislin.

He’s indeed a bit upset, but it’s not because of the occasional glances from ’Aislin’; rather, it’s because the Pink Robe Mage and Black Robe Mage teamed up to put him as far away from ’Aislin’ as possible.

Just now, when chatting with ’Aislin’ outside the door, those two collaborated quite well with the White Robe Mage, but once they confirmed ’Aislin’ had serious issues, they swiftly formed a tacit understanding, and together kicked the most threatening White Robe Mage out.

Although, as the ignored leader of the Tower of Dark Enigma, Ruth should be angry about this.

But whenever he thinks about the fact that all the mysteries surrounding ’Aislin’ originate from someone... Ruth’s heart is filled with blissful serenity.

Strive hard, sincerely, to uncover the secrets behind that lady!

Ruth himself is quite eager to know too!

"Teacher... What are you looking at?" Russell curiously watched ’Gilbert’ as he held a monocular up to his eyes and occasionally chuckled.

"Ah..." Hilbert put down the monocular and rubbed his cheek with his hand, "Spy vs. spy, fool vs. madman."

"Huh? Ah?" Russell could only utter two confused interjections.

"Our airship will enter the subsidiary town of Sia Tower in about half an hour." Hilbert first gave him a signal to be quiet, then slowly said, "It seems Sia Tower plans to arrange our accommodation first, and then discuss matters like territory distribution after everyone arrives."

Russell nodded: "I understand, teacher."

Then he glanced at the monocular on the table: "Teacher... this..."

"Only High-level Mages can use it." Hilbert smiled.

"Teacher, was this what you’ve been working on for the past few days?" Russell asked, his face full of amazement.

"Yes..." Hilbert nodded appreciatively, "In unknown places, even if we can build a secondary tower, it can’t simply connect to the Main Magic Array like before.

We have to find ways to observe further on our own."

Hilbert picked up the monocular and waved it gently: "This fusion magic array, though requiring high spiritual power from the Controller, can finally be used."

After confirming ’Aislin’s’ identity, Hill quickly crafted himself a more suitable image... a homebody, a crazy array enthusiast, who doesn’t go out unless necessary.

Although Gilbert’s appearance was somewhat different from his own, still, um, it was stylish enough to be appreciated by even Glaysia!

Who knows if he might be approached by a uniquely discerning Princess of Hell just for wandering outside?

Hill is quite convinced of his ability to ’court trouble.’

He glanced again at Russell... This kid’s physique might cause issues: "If you need to go out, remember to wear a gray or brown robe, and avoid having such a neat face."

"Huh? Ah?" Russell nearly thought he had a hearing problem.

What kind of strange conversation is this?

Carpenter understood though, she couldn’t help but chuckle softly: "Teacher, Aislin has seen Russell; she hasn’t even glanced at my brother."

"Aislin..." Hilbert blinked, "She’s been a bit crazy lately, so it’s best to avoid her."

Russell understood this time, even Sia Tower has their Aislin, best to steer clear.

That should be quite manageable.

Just keep it rough and avoid displaying artistic flair outside.

As a Junior Mage, he just needs to refrain from showcasing himself.
