Chapter 672: 215. Wise people are witty and funny.

After leaving Selena’s study, Noland traveled in the public transport within the Core Circle to the stone house he had asked Jenela to rent in the Visitor’s Area.

That night, Noland and Denise had stayed in this stone house after they arrived at the Suman Archipelago.

When Noland signed the soul contract with Selena, he received two pendants from her that permitted him to cast spells within the Core Circle.

With the possession of these pendants, Noland could cast spells allowed by the permits. Among them was a death spell from the resurrection series that allowed him to call Denise to come.

Noland held the pendant and summoned Denise to the house.

He firstly handed the other pendant to her and then, using Soul Perception, briefly told her everything that had happened that night.

Denise unconditionally supported everything Noland did, but she could not help worrying about Noland offending the Pangula family.

Noland took some time to comfort Denise’s emotions.

After that, he embarked on the journey to the Inner Circle residence alone.

The house that Noland had bought for Denise in the Inner Circle was a detached villa with many residents on the same island.

Using the cover of night, Noland arrived at the villa.

First, he used the Deconstruction Technique to examine and confirm that there were no abnormalities. Then, using Soul Perception, he contacted Selena and had a secret conversation with her.

After waiting quietly inside the house for 10 minutes, the Magic Messenger brought Noland nine magic scrolls.

These magic scrolls were handcrafted by Selena, containing a Deep Sea spell with the power of Nine Rings – the “Tidal Trap” – a deep sea magic trap that could only be detected by a Tenth-Ring Wizard.

Noland kept six of the nine magic scrolls in his magic pouch and only opened three of them.

Blue water spell light scattered from the scrolls and disappeared within the wall structure.

Three magic scrolls corresponded to three “Tidal Traps” hidden in the walls.

As long as the person secretly entering the house was not a Tenth-Ring Wizard, there was no way they could detect Selena’s “Tidal Trap”.

Having completed this step, Noland let out a quiet laugh in the dark room and called Denise to teleport him back to the Core Circle.

What would happen next was waiting for the secret guards sent by Lord Fagen’s family to show up.

Denise had bought the house using Noland’s name.

Moreover, considering that Denise had been appearing in and out of the house for the past few days, the family secret guard with ill intentions would definitely treat this place as Noland’s regular residence.

With the “Tidal Trap” powered by Nine Rings, as soon as the family secret guard or the assassin they sent stepped foot inside, Noland could capture the assailant on the spot.

A light appeared in the dark room as Denise appeared amidst the flickering flames, holding Noland’s arm and teleporting him back to the stone house within the Core Circle.

The quiet Inner Circle Houses were now without any movement.

…

…

Inside the study room of the Core Circle stone house.

After teleporting back with Denise, Noland led her into the study.

There was still more to do tonight, so he planned on staying up late before going to sleep.

He took out the Demon Spirit Wizard’s contract crystal from his Magic Robe pocket.

The Wizards who commanded “Guardian Demonic Spirits” established very detailed guardian contracts to ensure that they would not accidentally die while their souls were closed off.

The total word count of this Guardian Contract reached 600,000 words, covering everything that could happen during the closure of the soul.

These included but were not limited to:

Whether the soul of the Demon Spirit Wizard should be awakened if they were requested to participate in a Life and Death duel on behalf of a non-combat Wizard;

Whether the soul of the Demon Spirit Wizard should be awakened if they were requested to clean the toilet;

Whether the soul of the Demon Spirit Wizard should be awakened if the Ulnas Circle was destroyed due to extraterrestrial space pollution;

And so on.

All possible situations and criteria for awakening one’s soul were written in the Guardian Contract.

It also included the transfer of the Guardian Contract during the contract period.

Following the instructions in the contract, Noland summoned Eve Mastin, the Demon Spirit Wizard, from her crystal and awakened her soul.

Noland changed her guardian target from himself to Denise.

From then on, the Demon Spirit Wizard would be guarding Denise for a long period inside this stone house.

What’s more, Noland also opened up three more “Tidal Trap” magic scrolls, setting up Nine Ring magic traps inside the house.

With all these protective measures in place, Noland would no longer have to worry about Denise’s personal safety.

Denise was deeply moved by Noland’s care, and after giving him a grateful look, she entered the bedroom first.

Eve Mastin, the Demon Spirit Wizard with a closed soul, was arranged by Noland to stand in the storeroom on the first floor.

After Denise entered the bedroom, Noland snickered quietly and took out the Rune Staff from the magic pouch, went to the storeroom on the first floor and fiddled with Eve Mastin, who stood like a wooden statue.

An undetectable magic rune was engraved on the back of Eve Mastin’s hand by Noland’s Rune Staff.

This magic rune was “Mana Theft”.

There was a clause in the guardian contract concerning “Demon Spirit Wizards being engraved with magic runes by outsiders”.

When this happened, the soul of the Demon Spirit Wizard would be forcibly awakened.

However, Noland had obtained “Mana Theft” using the Harmless Deconstruction technique.

As a result, the magic rune engraved by him had all its spell fluctuations erased by the system and would never be discovered by anyone.
