Chapter 4122 Eyes and Detection
When Shad bid farewell to Danist and returned home, Lacey and Iluna had already departed together aboard the Radiant Messenger. And when Shad arrived at the Blue Ink Library, there were surprisingly many people inside.
Today is Thursday, and after more than half a week, the ownership of this library has been transferred; it now belongs to Vige. The library is expected to open to the public next week, but Vige doesn't plan to let too many people come, so it will operate on a paid membership system.
Miss McDonald brought a batch of books to the library that morning, and when Shad saw her, the tall girl was talking to Iluna and Lacey.
Iluna was curiously inquiring about the profitability of this kind of library, while the red-haired princess, whose noble air remained even after changing into casual clothes, was browsing through the most prominent row of "Hamilton Detective Stories" on the bookshelf.
When they saw Xia De come up from downstairs, the girls greeted him in unison. Lacey even twirled around, making her skirt flutter.
"Shad, how does this dress look? This is the first time I've worn this dress."
"Although it's a bit simple, it suits you very well."
"You're really good with words."
Lacey said, stepping forward and taking Shad's hand. Miss McDonald glanced at their clasped hands, then said to Shad:
“Mr. Hamilton, the carriage is ready, and the teacher and the Duke are waiting for you.”
"Okay, and also, you don't need to call me Mr. Hamilton, just call me by my name."
Xia De had a good impression of this tall girl.
It rained all day yesterday, and although the sky over Arcadia is still overcast today, at least it hasn't rained again.
On his way from the library to the upper town, Shad inquired with Miss McDonald about what had happened since he left the night before. He learned that Galina and Viggo had stayed in the study until 2 a.m. before returning to their rooms to rest.
"When the two of them argued, who won in the end?"
Lacey asked with a smile. Miss McDonald wasn't quite aware of the complicated and awkward relationship between Lacey and Galina, and thought she was just concerned about an elder:
“They didn’t argue. I went to the study with your sister at one o’clock in the morning, and the teacher and the Duke were both in normal tones at the time.”
"I see."
Lacey was somewhat disappointed:
"Auntie did go a bit too far this time. Watching others make fools of themselves is not a good habit."
Miss McDonald was even more confused.
Upon arriving at Fragrant Mansion, Shad saw Galina and Viggo in the foyer. The two beautiful witches came to greet Shad together, and when they stood together, it was as if a vibrant red rose and a pure white hyacinth appeared together.
Shad observed them carefully and determined that they did not appear to be continuing to be angry with each other:
Good morning, beautiful ladies.
Good morning, Shad.
Vigé rushed to hug Shad first, and Galina snorted, then asked the red-haired princess behind Shad:
"Good morning, Shad. Lacey, what brings you here?"
"I've come to see Adelina."
Galina, of course, didn't believe this, but she didn't say much. Instead, she introduced Lacey and Iluna to Vige. Although Iluna was already at the eleventh ring, she still went to Galina's place to study every week. Although the two didn't acknowledge each other, Iluna was indeed Galina's student.
Vigo was clearly already familiar with the girls around Shad, so she wasn't surprised by Lacey and Iluna's identities. Instead, she greeted them warmly and asked Miss Lorraine to inform Adelina, who was in the dungeon, to come and meet her sister.
Iluna had seen Vigo before, but this was the first time she had seen her true face up close, and she was quite impressed that all the witches were indeed beautiful.
This was the first time Lacey had met this witch. When Vigo and Galina stood together, she realized that the great witch of chaos's claim of being "the most beautiful" was not just self-aggrandizement. Witches were inherently beautiful, and in Lacey's opinion, Vigo Astley's appearance was top-tier even among witches; her beauty almost transcended the realm of humans.
However, Lacey had a good impression of this witch, because Vigo was very enthusiastic towards her and Iluna, and of course, because Vigo and Galina didn't get along very well.
Adelina hadn't expected Lacia to come see her today. Seeing her so touched made Lacia feel a little guilty, so as they went upstairs, Lacia asked Adelina with concern how she had slept in this unfamiliar place last night.
After the group arrived at the study on the second floor, Shad explained to Vige the purpose of Iluna's visit. Vige had already fully mastered the human alchemy techniques in her mother's notebook.
"However, as I said last time, not everyone is suitable for such modifications. I need to take a look at the specific condition of Miss Beatrice's left eye first."
Lacey and Adelina sat whispering to each other, while Galina and Shad watched as Vigo took out the "Life Detector." This was a special item combining the Magic Eye and [Active Metal]. Vigo explained as she activated it:
"I only discovered this yesterday. The information that this item left by my mother can detect is related to my understanding and the information my mother pre-input. Now that I understand that human alchemy technology, the detector can detect whether other people have the potential for this kind of modification."
Once I've fully mastered this tool after some time, I can input my own knowledge into it to expand its detection capabilities.
The cube transformed into the metal plate in her hand, and Vigo then turned the back of the metal plate towards Iluna:
"Please don't move, just wait five seconds."
After obtaining Iluna's consent, Vigo revealed what the detector had detected—
[Unknown human female]
[Life Strength: Extremely High]
[Life activity: High]
[Life form: Normal]
Reproductive capacity: Normal
【Eye Category: Unknown Magic Eyes *2】
[Note: The left eye is adaptable to any type of modification technology, making it a high-value research target.]
"Miss Beas has heterochromia in both eyes. Would you mind telling me the specific origin of that?"
Vigo then asked again, and Iluna nodded:
"In order to combat the time anomaly, Shad and I found the temple of the God of Order in Vistalin. I used a strange pine cone, Shad's blood, and the power of that ancient god to strengthen my right eye, so my right eye is now golden."
As for my left eye, do you know about the Descent of the Gods in Tobesque in the summer of 1853? Before that, I sacrificed my left eye to the ancient gods for the Chosen One ritual. During the Descent of the Gods, the gods summoned by Shad fought against the Lord of the Blood Feast, and in the end, they conjured this new eye for me out of thin air.”
Like Luvia and the others, Iluna had guessed that it wasn't the Summoning God at all, but rather Shad himself, but there was no need to say it now.
Vig glanced at Shade, then nodded slightly:
"A left eye created by God, is it? I think only an eye like this could adapt to any kind of modification. This sounds like a myth, Miss Beatrice. Theoretically speaking, your left eye is the most precious flesh and blood in the material world today."
After all, apart from your eyes, all flesh and blood in the material world are made of mortal matter.
Iluna herself didn't feel that way; she always felt that her left eye was a gift from Shad.
And then Galina suddenly said:
"Since that detector is so powerful, why not use it to detect other people? Maybe it will reveal some unexpected situations?"
Vigo had no objection to this, so the detector was then aimed at Galina, and the Duchess's information was exactly as expected. She was in good health, so her life activity and strength were extremely high, her life form was normal, and she had no reproductive ability.
Next was Agelina. The little princess wasn't high-ranking but was healthy. However, because she had accepted the witch's power and become a follower, her "reproductive ability" was also nonexistent. Agelina had accepted this outcome long ago, but seeing it with her own eyes still left her with a slight sense of loss. However, she wasn't Galina after all, so she wasn't particularly bothered by it.
Finally, there was Lacey, and the information she revealed was indeed problematic—
[Unknown human female]
[Life Strength: Extremely High]
[Life activity: High]
[Life Form: Incomplete]
Reproductive capacity: Normal
[Eye type: Normal]
[Note: A seemingly complete life form should actually have a second half to complete it. This is a suspected case of a split individual. It can be used to refine the research on life fission.]
Upon seeing the final note, Vige hesitated for a moment before reading it aloud, but Lacey didn't mind and let Vige share all the information she saw.
"Yes, I do have a partner. According to my original destiny, I should have become one with my partner, but Shad stopped the process, allowing us both to remain ourselves. During the Battle of the Snow Mountain, we rejected that destiny once again, so there will definitely be no problem from now on."
She said it casually, but Adelina whispered a reminder:
"Sister, your problems have been resolved at the level of the soul and destiny, but since this detector can detect the problem, does it mean that there are still some physical issues?"
Lacey glanced at her sister and said before Shad could speak:
"I feel great right now, Shad. Just focus on your own things and don't let us drag you into other things."
Galina then said to her grandniece:
"Even if you say that, it's impossible for Shad not to care about you. Now that you've found a problem, solve it properly. Besides, it might not even be a problem. Don't always think that it will cause trouble for Shad."
She displayed the authority of an elder, but what she said was not wrong.
