Returning From The Magic World

Chapter 107 Suzune

Barbara nodded in response while continuing to stare at Arthur. She said, "Suzune's status is very unique, her father is a businessman in Japan, still related to the imperial family, while her mother is from a super-rich family in America.

"When she was little, she lived in Japan. However, the prejudice against mixed blood in her Japanese family was so high that she finally moved to America when she was 18 years old. Currently, she is 27 years old, works at Lockheed Martin and is quite involved in organizational affairs."

Barbara pulled out her phone, opened a photo-sharing social media app before showing it to Arthur.

Arthur looked at the cellphone screen and found a row of photos of beautiful black and blonde haired women.

One glance at her face was enough for anyone to think she was unique. It's Japanese face but with white western skin.

Her eyes are blue while her face is an upside down diamond shape where her chin is quite pointed.

The average photo of the woman is wearing professional attire. Her expression was serene with a hint of a smile, something that easily made anyone who saw her think that she was a kind but difficult woman to approach.

However, that was only from an ordinary person's perspective. Arthur who was meticulous with detail, when he looked into her eyes could tell she was a dangerous woman, the kind with big ambitions.

"She lives in America, what do I need to do to get her to come here?" Arthur asked Barbara.

"Or do you have her contacts so I can reach her?"

Even though she has a social media account, it has quite a number of followers. It is certain that she receives dms every day some of which she doesn't read.

"Um, Lord, actually I was practically her personal informant where I had to tell her things that I experienced on my mission," Barbara replied.

The others looked at her strangely, but weren't too surprised though they probably just knew about it too.

For them this is not something strange because it is possible that each one of them does additional work such as giving information below to one of the higher ups in the organization.

Arthur nodded and said "if you can help me get her to come here, I will forgive your mistake the other day."

How he made Suzune his spy, he would see the situation first. In any case, since this was quite a serious matter, he would probably resort to forced means if the usual methods failed.

Barbara's expression twitched for a moment when she heard Arthur would only forgive her. At first she had little hope that Arthur would give her something as a present.

Of course, she did not dare to comment anything on that. Slowly, she replied, "I'll try, but it will take me a few days because I can't get in touch with her all the time."

"No problem, I'll wait as long as it's not too long!"

Arthur stood before taking a step away.

Tonight's business was over, so he went straight home, only stopping briefly at a few shops to buy a few things, and he entered the house undetected so no one would disturb him. His aunt was practicing magic, but that couldn't be said for Carla and Bella.

Entering his room, he took his three agarwood branches and brought them to the balcony and arranged them in front of him.

phew!

He sighed before taking a deep breath. Here, he felt quite at ease due to the denser spiritual energy.

His mouth then moved, muttering under his breath. Right after that, spiritual light appeared above each of three of his fingers.

He waved them around, sending each of those lights toward each of the branches.

In an instant, they entered the branches, causing them to glow and move to the point their leaves lifted.

The air around them slightly rippled. A moment later, the spiritual energy gathered more and more before entering them.

It was a quiet process and when their light disappeared, a refreshing and calming fragrance suddenly emitted.

Arthur couldn't help but take a deep breath to inhale the scent. He even closed his eyes and smiled again when he opened them.

"That's pretty good," he said.

And it was only because they were in an open space that their scent spread quickly. If in a closed room, the fragrance of the aroma can be doubled or tripled.

Arthur let them there first so that it would be easier for them to absorb the spiritual energy. Maybe 45 minutes or so later, there were faint white streaks running from the top of the branches down to the bottom.

The lines are just a sign that they have become independent beings and have their own spirituality. The first can be likened to a tree branch that has grown into a tree so that it is completely separated from its original roots.

"Finished!" Arthur gathered them again and led them into his room.

Whether the lines or the scent could not be investigated using science. Even the most eminent scientists would find nothing but confusion. Only a magus with spiritual power could research those branches.

The latter was something Arthur had been looking forward to.

In his room, he placed the agarwood branches in the glass cases he had just bought. He did that so their scent wasn't too dense, it just smelled faintly.

After he finished, he went to his bed, started to meditate.

The abundant spiritual energy allowed him to increase his strength more quickly.

Coupled with his mastery of the spell, reaching the next stage shouldn't take him much longer.

Tonight, there was quite a lot of movement in Vera City. It wasn't because there were certain things between the various parties, but as if a group of snakes had infiltrated and then done various things.

In the morning, Arthur came out of his room carrying one of the glass cases.

Carla and Bella, who also came out of the room, looked at the glass box curiously. They still managed to smell the scent, so they guessed it was the agarwood Arthur had said.

"Arthur why did you put it in there, can I smell it directly for a second?" Bella asked as she approached Arthur.
