One-Eyed Monster

Igor looked in the direction of the voice, and he discovered that the one speaking was the Great Mentor.

He had no idea when the Great Mentor had come to his side, but now the Great Mentor stood with his hands behind his back, a look of indescribable kindness on his face, completely embodying the image of a wise man.

Some of the monsters were still sighing, while others naturally stood beside the Great Mentor. To these monsters, the Great Mentor and they were one and could never be separated.

”She found what she wanted, so she let go,” the Great Mentor further explained as he saw Igor’s surprised expression.

”No, Mentor, have you been listening silently the whole time?” Igor was actually not surprised by the Great Mentor’s words, but rather by the fact that the Great Mentor had appeared here without his noticing.

He hadn’t noticed at all!

The sudden, silent appearance was quite startling!

”Not quite, we were just contemplating for a long time and suddenly remembered this Wizard, wanting to see what her situation was.”

”As a result, we had just shifted our attention and discovered that this Sorceress had completely recovered, her emotions stabilized, which was completely unexpected to us.”

”Yes, it seems it’s all your doing, Igor, you did well.”

”You did well, always have.”

Igor wanted to find a hole to crawl into; being praised by so many people made him very uncomfortable. After all, he wasn’t responsible for any of this, so how could it suddenly become his credit? He couldn’t accept this at all.

”Actually, this isn’t...”

”Don’t be modest, don’t be modest, we all know you’re a modest kid.”

Igor could only hold his forehead in silence.

It really wasn’t him, he couldn’t admit to it. He was an honest person and couldn’t accept praise for something unrelated to him.

So Igor had to interrupt the monsters’ excessive compliments: ”It wasn’t me, I’m also curious why the change in the Respected Wizard is so significant.”

The monsters disagreed; they didn’t believe Igor hadn’t comforted the Great Witch — her change was entirely due to Igor’s comfort.

So it didn’t matter if Igor didn’t admit it; he just needed to know the process. They were here just to see, as this Great Witch had rather prominent attributes in certain areas.

It was just a coincidence.

However, seeing the Great Witch so serene was honestly surprising to them.

After all, they were normal beings, and knowing they couldn’t advance would definitely be uncomfortable for them as well. Moreover, they were here to observe her attributes with the additional intention of helping the Great Witch see if she could develop in another area.

All were Adventurers with Class, knowing the difficulty of dedication and the pain of effort without results. So, as fellow Adventurers with Class, they were willing to help this Great Witch who seemed to have reached the end.

However, seeing her letting go still filled them with relief, at least they wouldn’t have to console a hopeless person, which was a daunting task.

But, this was just the beginning.

What happened next made them find it even more incredible.

The Great Witch Biggs suddenly took off her wizard robe and tossed it aside.

Was she giving up her identity as a Wizard?

Or was her prior acceptance just an illusion, and now the real venting was beginning.

No wonder, such a blow is hard to let go of all at once...

The monsters began to imagine again, feeling that this time the Great Witch had been deeply hurt, unsure if she could be saved.

Indeed, this was what the elders thought.

Igor was puzzled to see the Great Witch throw her wizard robe aside; how could she discard the symbol of her identity, was she truly not caring at all?

Yet, the Spirit Book, about to fall into a slumber, was invigorated by this scene, with a surge of Lord Soron’s magnanimity and melancholy rising within it.

After so many years, finally, someone had emerged! That was the Spirit Book’s first reaction, happy at first, then slowly turning bittersweet.

Finally, someone understood these things.

This might be the last remnant of Lord Soron’s will in the Spirit Book, a moment longed for over countless years.

Unexpectedly, all of Lord Soron’s will manifested on this Guru Mountain.

It really was an unbelievable thing.

”Good!” the Spirit Book suddenly shouted, startling everyone.

”I seem to vaguely feel Lord Soron’s Spirit Power again.” Grand Master Guzan was unsure whether this trace of Spirit Power was nearly nonexistent, yet still perceivable.

”Finally someone, finally someone could understand! Hahahaha!” The Spirit Book went mad, leaving Igor dumbfounded on the spot.

”I’m certain this is Lord Soron’s remnant thought.”

They had witnessed Soron’s remnant thought before, thanks to Igor, but now it resurfaced, and it was so excited.

It truly was a magical moment.

”What’s it saying?” Igor asked, bewildered, becoming increasingly confused by this Spirit Book’s behavior and what it signified, it could now be described as neurotic!

”Uhh…” The Great Mentor himself couldn’t quite understand what the Spirit Book, no, to be precise, Lord Soron’s remnant thought was saying.

The Spirit Book didn’t care about them and continued its frenzy: ”This is freedom, only freedom can give rise to such an effect.”

”Yes, I’ve realized this, I know what I want now. I used to always stick to others’ standards, never considering my own.”

”With your emergence, this old man can finally rest in peace!”

None of the monsters on Guru Mountain expected the Great Witch Biggs to chat with the Spirit Book about the universe.

Although just a few words, they could feel the profound changes occurring in Biggs.

It seemed their intention to help Biggs didn’t need to be prepared anymore.

Because Biggs was now in better shape than anyone.

”What on earth are they talking about?” Igor scratched his head, completely bewildered.

”You really can’t see it either!” The other monsters were equally puzzled.

The Spirit Book, after its bout of frenzy, finally calmed down. Everyone was watching it because now perhaps only it could explain the current situation.

It was the one to discover the secret of the Wizard Robe System, and now it would be the one to uncover other secrets...

This secret may not be so complex, but someone needs to unveil it.
