Passerby Villain In A Wizard World

Since Aurora wasn't guarding against him and his mental power was far beyond hers, Ian quickly took control of her in a second, causing her to go blank.

"Hey, increase your power of Rule and see if you can feel the traces of Abyss inside her."

Once Ian was sure he had Aurora under his control, he finally looked at Ignysyl, who was quietly observing his actions and gave the order.

"Hm? Does she really have something to do with the Abyss?"

Ignysyl tilted his head and flared up the prongs of fire on his wings, causing the fiery wall around them to turn blue, just as ordered.

"Hmm... I think you may have been mistaken. I cannot smell anything on her."

After sniffing around and using his Rule of Fire, Ignysyl lost interest in Aurora and shook his head.

'Is there really nothing?'

Ian was confused, as he clearly knew that Aurora wanted to leave this place because of her entanglement with the Whispering Expanse forbidden zone.

And there was also that Monarch-level figure he had inadvertently invited because of the sudden quest.

But Ignysyl didn't find anything odd about her. So, what was the problem? Your journey continues with My Virtual Library Empire

'Should I try that?'

Ian thought a little nervously, unlike his usual style.

"Hey, should I stop now? Although it doesn't cost much, it is still wasteful to use this ability recklessly."

Seeing him getting lost in his thoughts, Ignysyl couldn't sit still and reminded him.

"Hm? Oh, wait... I want to do something next. Be sure to take a careful look and react if something seems off."

Ian said with a solemn look after seeing that Ignysyl was about to retract his Rule of Fire.

'Since it had already come to this, let's do it.'

Ian decided. No matter what, he had to confirm his conjecture before deciding to bring Aurora with him out of this continent.

If he found something fishy next, he would just let Aurora get deported like normal when the Tower's rejection starts.

Although he did feel that doing so would make him look like a jerk, he wasn't going to risk everything just for a flimsy promise.

That feeling of almost drowning in the Abyss just by calling the name was simply dreadful. He wasn't fond of experiencing it again.

"Okay, be fast. I cannot maintain it like this forever."

Ignysyl saw that Ian was quite serious about this and agreed, his flickering eye constantly scanning Aurora and Ian's bodies as if trying to find something.

Seeing that everything was ready, Ian took a deep breath and ready his Ethereal form just in case something went wrong in the process.

After that, he silently began to recall a name in his mind that he had actively forgotten all this time.

'Whispering monarch: Ulthera!'

"Ulthera?"

After not feeling anything like before, Ian used his mental power to echo those words in Aurora's mind while searching for any anomalies.

"Whispering monarch: Ulthera!"

He even controlled Aurora to say those words from her mouth but still, there was nothing. It was as if this name held nothing and couldn't summon the entity he was asking for.

"..."

"..."

While Ian was silently using the methods, Lyra and Ignysyl felt awkward watching Ian look at Aurora intently, as if enamored.

During the whole process, they only saw him control Aurora to say something, and then nothing. It was as if he was playing around.

"Hey, can you start already? I'm not lying here. I really cannot maintain this any longer."

Seeing Ian just looking at Aurora silently without doing anything for a while, Ignysyl finally snapped as he puffed up his nostrils in annoyance.

He felt like Ian was playing with him.

Otherwise, there was no need for Ian to do anything, as he would definitely sense if there was involvement of the Abyss around this girl.

After all, he had a very keen perception of the Abyss.

"Ian... do you have any thoughts about her? But it isn't good to do anything while she is under your control and unconscious."

While Ignysyl thought Ian was playing with him, Lyra thought otherwise. So, she grabbed his sleeve and suggested that he not do anything untoward.

"Ouch!"

"Do you think your man is that kind of person? What are you thinking?"

Ian couldn't help but roll his eyes while smacking Lyra's head with a finger, causing her to yelp in pain.

"What am I thinking? You were the one looking at Aurora so intently. Why are you blaming me now, you pervert?"

Lyra rubbed her forehead in pain and replied to him in annoyance.

From her perspective, it did look like Ian was enamored with the girl in front, causing her to get jealous.

"Sigh... okay, I was just thinking of something just now. Don't just guess randomly next time."

Ian reprimanded and looked at Ignysyl.

"Did you really not feel anything?"

"Nope, not a thing. There is really nothing wrong with this girl."

The little dragon shook his head extremely confidently.

'Then, am I just imagining things? Or maybe this tower stops that entity from entering?'

Ian pondered in confusion, then shook his head.

'Whatever, it is good news that she seemed normal. Let's just forget this for now.'

He decided and ordered Ignysyl,

"You can withdraw the domain. Hide your figure until we get out of this Ignsia Tower, just like now, lest there be an unexpected problem."

He said this while lifting his arm from Aurora's shoulder and placing it beside her waist, pulling her into his arms.

He was as natural as he was with Lyra.

He also dispersed the Infernal Burst spell after cutting off the mana.

"Okay, phew... that was a little tiring. Don't forget to reward me for this after we leave this tower. I want to taste some delicious food."

Ignysyl quickly withdrew everything while taking a relaxed breath.

"Yeah... yeah, just as you ordered. Now, shut up and wait. It is time."@@novelbin@@

Ian said, as he already saw the area where they were beginning to change.
