Chapter 22: Who is the Mastermind?

"I understand Dad." with those words, he took the book from Ronald's hands and looked through it.

Ronald's palms were a little sweaty. As he waited for Luis to go through the book. He saw the change in Luis' expression. From normal to shocked and then to disbelief. Luis closed the book and uttered, "I can understand it, Dad."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"... What's in it?"

"Ancient Magic."

Ronald immediately became happy and asked, "Can you learn it?"

"Yes,"

"Haha, good, good. You inherited my genes very well." Ronald said while laughing out loud.

Luis was a little dissatisfied. "But Dad, you didn't have the talent to read it either, right?"

Ronald gave an awkward laugh and said, "Yeah, but I never said anything about talent. It's the genes I'm talking about."

Luis looked at his father speechlessly.

"Anyway, go back to your room now. Study it well from that book. Also, remember to show me what you learned later, and try it first under my watch." Ronald won't let Luis practice some dangerous magic alone. So he asked him to learn it for now and use it under his watch so he can rest assured.

Who knows what kind of magic is in there? If there's some forbidden magic that is dangerous for the user, Ronald will stop him.

Luis smiled warmly and said, "Okay, good night, Dad."

"Yeah, good night." Ronald was left alone in the study wondering what kind of existence his son will become in the future.

After Luis returned to his room, he didn't sleep and started reading the book he got from his father. The more he read, the more shocked his expression was. Sweat formed on his forehead and his hands trembled in excitement.

He wondered, 'Just what kind of existence was this, Sage?'

The book contained a variety of ancient magic spells. From different attributes to attribute less magic. "It seems my Sorceror Talent will shine as I master these spells." New novel chapters are published on

But what Luis was most interested in was the Illusion magic spells contained inside this book.

'I can't believe something like this exists.'

Luis nodded and then looked at Alicia, who was waiting for his answer. "I'll explain, but before that, tell me something, Alicia."

Alicia looked at him, waiting for his question.

"Why do you think even after all these years you couldn't find any information about them?"

"Why?" Alicia raised her brow as if thinking of an answer.

"Indeed, why it is?" Luis nodded and said, "Even with the Raven family, the Suarez family, and the Desmond family's information network, we couldn't find a clue."

"Why do you think that is?" He asked again.

"Cause they are hidden so well," Alicia replied.

"Of course, they are hidden well. But, I want to know, how can they be hidden so well?" Luis' words made her rethink everything.

Alicia had tried everything to search for them yet couldn't find any clue. Raven family's information network is one of the best so it should be possible to find their traces at the very least. But they couldn't find anything. So why was it?

"Either they are so powerful that we can't even find their traces or... someone powerful is hiding them," Alicia murmured.

Luis smiled and asked, "Now who has enough power and influence over this country that can hide things, even from 3 of the major families?"
