Starting from the Wizarding World

Chapter 188 You Have an Extra 1-Ring FatherChapter 188 You Have a Six-Ring Father

Gray Tower Continent.

In the Holy Empire, in the Holy Capital.

”Are you sure that the ’Scholar of the Heart Demon’ is here?” Rorschach confirmed again with Nicole beside him.

”That’s what the teacher told me, so it shouldn’t be wrong.” Nicole shrugged, indicating that this was all she knew.

”Well, you heard—”

Upon hearing this, Rorschach turned his head and spoke to a majestic man behind him who looked a head taller than him. However, this majestic man seemed a little restrained when facing Rorschach, and slightly bowed his body to show respect.

After hearing the conversation between Rorschach and Nicole, the majestic man couldn’t help but be a little surprised: ”But there shouldn’t be anything here that can attract a five-ringed moon star, not to mention that the gentleman is a great scholar in the tower...”

The majestic man is named ’Caesar Pudi’, and he also has another more well-known title - Caesar XIII!

Today, he is the commander of the fourth legion of the [Blood Knights] and has already become a knight of the divine realm!
The blood he merged is the blood of the ancient golden dragon!
As the leader of the metallic dragons, the Ancient Golden Dragon may not necessarily be the most powerful among the ancient dragons, but they are close to being the strongest in every aspect, and their status is equivalent to that of the king among the ancient dragons!
As a descendant of the Golden Dragon, Caesar XIII’s strength was no weaker than that of the top Three-Ring Morning Star after he ascended to the legendary level.

After entering the divine realm, his divine realm possesses both the might of a dragon and the domain of a king, and his strength is only stronger than most four-ringed moon gods!

However, the reason why Rorschach called him this time was not because of his strength, but because the Holy Empire was founded by his family.

The founding emperor of the Holy Empire was also named Caesar, so he was also called Caesar the Great. The name Caesar naturally became the most popular name in the royal family of the Holy Empire, with one name appearing every two to three generations.

Caesar XIII, as the direct descendant of Caesar the Great, is the only king in history who can truly break the shackles of life.

Perhaps it was because the golden dragon blood that was absorbed by the royal family of the Holy Empire was too strong, they were almost unable to condense spiritual seeds. Even if they succeeded in condensing with the help of external forces, it would be dispersed by the golden dragon’s will in their bodies.

Unless you don’t become a Golden Dragon Knight from the beginning, it will be difficult to embark on the path of a wizard.

Therefore, although there are descendants with royal blood who choose to become wizards, there are almost no wizards among the direct members of the royal family.

Including Caesar XIII, who was able to break the shackles of life because of the birth of the Legendary Road and the Divine Realm Road.

Rorschach was surprised that he would call his Blood Hell World group over this time. It was not until they arrived at their destination that they realized it.

It turned out that it was because it involved the Holy Empire.

Nicole patiently explained to Caesar XIII, ”The appearance of the ’Heart Demon Scholar’ in a certain place has nothing to do with what is there. It should be said that wherever there are people, there is a possibility that he will appear, because the path he pursues is related to the human heart.”

”Human heart?” Caesar XIII understood, but didn’t understand.

He could understand the literal meaning of these words, but what could the path of a Five-Ring Moon Star have to do with the human heart?
Luo Xia asked thoughtfully: ”What is the relationship between the ’Heart Demon Scholar’ and the strongest person in the legend?”

”I am his registered disciple, and I studied with him for a period of time.” Nicole knew that Rorschach was talking about the ’Heart Throne’.

As the recognized strongest among the ’Nine Thrones’, the strength of the ’Heart Throne’ is unquestionable, even the ’Nine Thrones’ think so.

Previously, when the great wizard Hoover told Rorschach about the events of their time, he had focused on the glorious past of the ’Heart Throne’, such as the fact that it was the first to become the Blazing Sun Throne, and some of the achievements that shocked the wizarding world.

Even the arrogant ’Holy Throne’ has personally admitted that he is inferior to the ’Heart Throne’.

As a scholar of the High Tower and a Five-ring Moon Master, the ’Scholar of the Heart Demon’ was already quite powerful. Coupled with his status as a registered disciple of the ’Throne of the Heart’, he became somewhat famous throughout the wizarding world.

However, he has always been alone, and apart from joining the semi-open [Tower of Omniscience], he has no dealings with any forces.

Few people know his whereabouts.

The Scholar of All Beasts is probably one of the few people who knows his situation.

In the invitation list of the Master of All Beasts, the ’Master of the Heart Demon’ would definitely not be the first choice, because he is usually not interested in these things.

If there was really no other choice, he would not have asked Rorschach to bring Nicole to meet this ”scholar of the inner demon”.

”But... where should we start looking?” Nicole was a little troubled at this time.

“You don’t need to start, just try it and you’ll know.”

As Rorschach spoke, a divine domain that was invisible to the naked eye began to spread outward from him, instantly covering most of the sacred capital, and the speed of spread did not slow down at all.

Caesar XIII, who was following behind Rorschach, sensed Rorschach’s divine domain at the first moment and was immediately shocked!
Now that he is also a knight of the Divine Realm, he is naturally extremely sensitive to the fluctuations of the Divine Realm. However, it was only now that he truly felt how big the gap was between this leader and them when he was doing his best!

In the past three years, they took turns to be Rorschach’s sparring partners, but the feeling was not that obvious because Rorschach was beaten most of the time in these three years.

Soon, Rorschach’s divine domain covered the entire holy capital and continued to spread outward.

There probably aren’t many people who can feel this process.

Especially for ordinary people, they would not notice anything unusual at all, it is just the same as usual.

Even Nicole could only guess what was going on after combining Rorschach’s actions with careful sensing.

Otherwise, she might really think it was just her illusion.

”I have——”

Rorschach, who had closed his eyes after the divine realm opened, suddenly opened his eyes at this moment.

”Where?” Caesar XIII asked curiously.

After all, this is where he has lived for most of his life, and the current King of the Holy Empire is his son, Charles Puddy.

”The royal palace,” Rorschach replied as he took back the divine domain.

”Royal Palace?!” Caesar XIII’s expression tightened.

”You’ll know when you get there.” Rorschach signaled that they could set off.

Caesar XIII didn’t ask any questions and followed immediately.

……

Inside the palace.

The current King of the Holy Empire, Charles IV, was visiting his grandmother, Lady Anna, and said in a somewhat tangled tone, ”Grandma, I don’t know why, but I feel a little uneasy today...”

’Lady Anna’ is the biological mother of Caesar XIII, the former king of the Holy Empire. Although she has never been a queen, she can be considered a mother with status due to her son.

Today, Charles IV is her grandson.

Although Caesar XIII had left the Holy Empire, Lady Anna, as the grandmother of Charles IV, would naturally not be treated unfairly.

”The fact that you are so uneasy proves that your intuition is very accurate.” Mrs. Anna smiled kindly.

”Hmm?” Charles IV was a little confused about what his grandmother meant.

”A guest has arrived, please receive him first—”

’Madam Anna’ did not explain, but just smiled and pointed in the direction of the door, indicating that Charles IV should receive the guests first.

Charles IV originally thought that his grandmother was getting senile. This was the royal palace, so how could there be guests out of nowhere?
But when he looked towards the door, he immediately saw a figure that shocked him: ”Father?!”

The person who came was none other than his father, Caesar XIII!

No, it should be said that Caesar XIII was just one of them.

Among the three people who walked in from the door, the leader was a man with long silver hair, and his father Caesar XIII followed behind him, and on the other side was a pretty woman wearing glasses.

”Why, you don’t welcome me?” Caesar XIII said with a smile.

”How could that be!” Charles IV immediately stood up, looking a little agitated, ”But father, aren’t you going to the Blood Prison World Group?”

”Let’s talk about those things later. You go aside first.” Caesar XIII waved his hand, signaling Charles IV to wait aside first.

Charles IV did not dare to express any dissatisfaction with this, because although Caesar XIII was no longer the king, he was already an upper legend before he left, and he had just broken through to the lower legend now. Facing a father who was countless times stronger than himself, what else could he do except to be honest?

Seeing that his son had already dodged, Caesar XIII looked at Lady Anna behind him and said:

”Should I call you mother, or ’Scholar of the Heart Demon’?”

”You can call me whatever you want. After all, you are my son, right?” Mrs. Anna chuckled. ”Are you really my mother?” Caesar XIII said in a complicated tone, ”Although I admire my father, he should be no different from an ant in your eyes. How can I believe it...”

”You don’t believe it because your understanding of life is too low and you are still obsessed with meaningless concepts such as body and bloodline.”

Mrs. Anna smiled and said, ”Using the concept of the Ark Wizard, Anna’s life is like a life simulation game to me. Although you only occupy a tiny and insignificant part of my long life, at this moment you are indeed my family, and you are indeed my son.”

Upon hearing this, Caesar XIII said in a low voice, ”So my birth is just a game to you...”

”Don’t be so sad. Now that you have entered the divine realm, you have become an immortal. You will eventually understand my feelings.” Mrs. Anna said with a smile.

”Maybe.” Caesar XIII said without comment.

Madam Anna looked at Rorschach and said, ”You should be the youngest scholar in the history of our tower, a legendary scholar, right?”

”Hello, Senior Heart Demon.” Luo Xia nodded slightly.

As a fellow scholar, he did not need to be too humble in front of this ’heart demon scholar’, even if the other party was about to break through the sixth ring.

To be honest, he was actually a little shocked.

Because if he remembered correctly, the original gender of this ”Heart Demon Scholar” should be male, but now she is not only a female, but also married and gave birth to three children in the Holy Empire.

Caesar XIII was only her eldest son, but not her only one.

In addition, what she had said to Caesar XIII before was also true.

She did give birth to Caesar XIII and his two siblings under the identity of ’Lady Anna’. Caesar XIII also had two younger sisters.

However, the identity of ’Mrs. Anna’ is more like just one of her lifetimes.

This is also the peculiarity of the ’Scholar of the Heart Demon’.

As early as when Luo Xia just became the Morning Star and condensed the witch spirit, he had already learned that the witch spirit could not be separated from the body for a long time.

Moreover, the witch spirit cannot take over another body at will, because an ordinary body cannot withstand the power of the witch spirit at all, and even if it takes over another body, it will soon die again.

But this rule seems to be non-existent for the ’Scholar of the Heart Demon’. Her way of cultivation is to experience different lives through continuous ’reincarnation’ in order to find her path.

The life simulation game she had described to Caesar XIII was quite accurate, because the identity of ’Lady Anna’ was just one of the many lives she had simulated.

It was true that Caesar XIII was her son, but he was only her son in this phase of her life, and she had experienced this kind of life thousands of times.

That’s why she seems so calm.

”Nicole, I haven’t congratulated you on becoming a senior scholar yet.” ’Mrs. Anna’ smiled and looked at Nicole beside Rorschach.

It was obvious that they had known each other for a long time and were very familiar with each other.

”Thank you, Senior Xinmo.” Nicole immediately expressed her gratitude.

”So, Little Caesar is now your legend?” ’Madam Anna’ looked at Rorschach again and said.

”One of the five legion commanders of the Blood Knights.” Rorschach gave a brief introduction.

”Good, good, you didn’t embarrass me.” Mrs. Anna smiled happily, and it can be seen that she was pleased from the bottom of her heart.

Just as she said to Caesar XIII, at least at the moment, she really treated Caesar XIII as her own son.

”You wouldn’t come to me for no reason. Tell me what you need my help with. For Little Caesar’s sake, I can help you.”

Mrs. Anna asked with a smile, like a wise man who had seen through the world.

Rorschach was not surprised by this and immediately explained his purpose.

”A grading meeting? It’s been many years since I last attended one. Okay, I promise you, I will be there when it starts.” Mrs. Anna nodded and then asked, ”Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to ask, who are the other two great scholars besides me this time?”

”Me and Senior ’Jin’.” Rorschach replied.

”’Gold’? Hahahaha, interesting. I bet if many old friends knew that there was ’Gold’ in the judging this time, they would be willing to join in the fun. You probably haven’t had the time to ask others yet, right?” ’Mrs. Anna’ asked with a smile.

”Not yet.” Rorschach shook his head.

”That’s it. Never mind. Since I’ve agreed, it’s not their turn anymore... See you at the grading meeting.” ’Mrs. Anna’ said with a smile.

”Well, then I’ll be waiting for Senior Xinmo’s visit.” Luo Xia nodded.

……

After leaving the palace, Caesar XIII has been somewhat silent.

”Why don’t you stay and catch up?” Rorschach asked with a smile.

”I really don’t know how to face her. Maybe it’s because I can’t accept that I was born just because of a game she played.” Caesar XIII had a complicated expression.

”Is that so... Then I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?” Rorschach asked.

”Hmm? Let’s hear the good news first.” Caesar XIII thought for a while and said.

”The good news is that what she said before was not a lie to you, and she really does treat you as her own child. At least as long as ’Madam Anna’ is alive, you will have a mother who is about to enter the sixth ring.” Rorschach said.

”Senior Xinmo is about to enter the sixth ring?” Nicole on the side was also a little surprised when she heard it.

”It should have happened recently. Her accumulation on the spiritual path has long been enough for her to take this step. It’s just that she wants to go further, so she is not in a hurry to break through.” Rorschach nodded.

These are the information he obtained when he observed the ’Heart Demon Scholar’ through the True Prison Eyes. Naturally, they cannot be wrong. If nothing unexpected happens, the ’Heart Demon Scholar’ may break through before the grading conference.

“If the teacher knew, he would probably feel a sense of urgency,” Nicole sighed.

The Scholar of All Beasts, the Scholar of Heart Demons, and the Scholar of Gold all entered the Five-Ring Moon in the same era.

Even though they don’t say it, it’s impossible not to compete with each other secretly.

Now that the ’Heart Demon Scholar’ is taking the first step, others will feel a sense of urgency.

Caesar XIII saw that Rorschach was talking to Nicole, so he didn’t want to interrupt. It was not until the two finished talking that he couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity:
”What about the bad news?”

”The bad news is, as far as I know, Senior Heart Demon was originally a male, so you actually have an extra father with six rings.” Luo Xia said with a smile.

”...”

Caesar XIII was numb.

He had guessed many possibilities about the bad news that Rorschach mentioned, but he had never thought in such an outrageous direction.

God, there’s another dad with six rings!

She was clearly the kind and gentle mother in my memory yesterday, how come she has turned into a man in the blink of an eye? !
The huge shock left Caesar XIII speechless for a long time.

Although it is certainly a blessing to have a Six-Ring supporter with an unknown shelf life, how can he face his male mother in the future?

After finalizing the three judges, Rorschach could finally feel at ease and take Caesar XIII, who was still doubting his life, to the [Tower of Omniscience]. When he returned, an old acquaintance was already waiting for him.

”Senior Tianshen? Aren’t you in seclusion?”

Looking at the divine scholar who was waiting for him, Rorschach was surprised.

”Are you interested in hunting down the evil god of the abyss?” The great scholar of the gods asked straight to the point as soon as he saw Rorschach.

”Hmm?” Rorschach became interested. ”What level?”

”Powerful divine power!” said the great scholar of the Heavenly God with sparkling eyes.

”?!”

Rorschach was shocked for a moment. He didn’t expect that the scholar from the Godly University had such a big appetite.
