Chapter 910: 284. In a great hurry_2

“Ah, this… Selena’s reaction is way too intense, isn’t it? I hadn’t even finished speaking and she’s already stormed off to get revenge?!”
Noland Lee tried to activate “Soul Perception” to call Selena back.
But he failed.
Selena’s emotional turmoil was so intense that she did not detect the call on the soul level.
Noland Lee slightly furrowed his brows, his gaze sweeping over the account book on the tabletop.
...
He cast Deconstruction and obtained the newly added content of the account book.
The characters in the account book were both fair and beautiful, and were personally written by Selena, not the work of a Magic Pen.
Noland Lee crossed his arms, tapping lightly on his shoulder.
Combining Selena’s crying from two days ago and her response today, it was clear she was wholeheartedly devoted to him, Noland Lee.
The deconstruction result of the Deconstruction Technique also proved this.
Noland Lee rubbed his chin, his mind racing with thoughts.
He had intentionally presented himself as extremely weak before Selena, to go along with Lonco’s three-day hypothesis and employ the strategy of “using the enemy’s plan on themselves.”
Hold off on the major moves for a while and then take back everything that should be his; that was the main thrust of Noland Lee’s follow-up plan.
The entire plan was predicated on making Lonco, Lonco’s Father, Benjamin, and Windhawk hundred percent believe that Noland Lee was seriously ill.
Only by achieving this would Noland Lee have the time and space to carry out subsequent measures.
“Hmm… now that I think about it, Selena’s explosive reaction isn’t entirely a bad thing. Her actions can easily prove how grievous my injuries are. This actually saves me the trouble of hinting at the severity of my own injuries in other ways.”
Noland Lee squinted his eyes slightly.
Denise Green’s voice came from outside the door.
“I made some afternoon tea and desserts, and I’ve brought them over…”
Denise Green peeked into the room, her gaze curiously sweeping around:
“Eh? Where’s Selena? Didn’t she just come in? Could the magic fluctuation just now outside the room have been caused by Selena? Did she fly away?”
Upon another glance at Noland Lee’s condition, Denise Green’s expression turned peculiar:
“Did Selena really not even use a spell to check your injuries and just believed you had suffered a magic backlash?”
Noland Lee touched his nose:
“Yeah…”
Denise Green set down the tray in her hands and exclaimed with an air of aged wisdom: noveldrama
“Ah, I knew her intelligence had severely declined. There it is. She believed your tall tales and must have gone to settle accounts with her brother.”
Noland Lee raised an eyebrow:
“Yo, you’re quite accurate in your guess.”
Denise Green extended her fair finger and poked Noland Lee’s head:
“This isn’t guessing, it’s deductive reasoning, or empathy. If I didn’t know you were faking an illness, I’d be steaming with impatience too. How could you treat Selena like that? She must be beside herself with anxiety.”
Noland Lee captured her small hand and began to gently rub it:
“If she could extricate herself from her family and the Academy’s quagmire, I would indeed tell her the full truth. But until I obtain a Sub-Dimensional Plane for myself, I can only resort to the current methods. You might as well not leave, just wait here for Selena, I’m going to see the Professor.”
“Alright.” Denise Green tapped her chin and then muttered resentfully:
“Those three guys are really no good. Despite all the help you’ve given them, they still think of duping you. Just thinking about it gets me irritated.”
Noland Lee was amused by Denise Green’s angry appearance and cracked a goofy smile.
“You’re still laughing.” Denise Green poked Noland Lee:
“They treat you that way, you must pay them back, or I won’t be satisfied.”
“Don’t worry, I will.” Noland Lee leaned in, touching the roundness of her full moon, lingering in its warmth and softness for a moment:
“Alright, I’m off to see the Professor. Find yourself a place to sit.”
Denise Green pulled out a chair from her Magic Pouch and placed it beside Noland Lee, sitting down next to his shoulder.
Noland Lee closed his eyes, silently chanting “Enter the ‘Court of Silence’.”
His consciousness detached from his body, soaring rapidly towards the indigo planetsphere in the pitch-black portrait.
It had been more than two months since he last left the ‘Court of Silence’.
After being away from this place for a while, Noland Lee felt a mix of emotions upon his return.
A Sub-Dimensional Plane, an individual Realm of Wizards, was indeed a coveted thing for every wizard.
In their Sub-Dimensional Plane, a wizard’s willpower covers every corner, making them the sole master of this tiny world.
Nothing or no one can defy the wizard’s will within their Sub-Dimensional Plane.
However, maintaining a Sub-Dimensional Plane was an endeavor that exhausted a wizard’s wits and mana.
Take Professor Erica as an example.
She bought this Sub-Dimensional Plane from the hands of Hotams.
Before her arrival, it was barren, destitute, and shattered; a chaotic expanse of fragmented landmasses, devoid of any trees or plants.
After years of running the Plane Device and spending a great deal of gold coins and various Magic Stones, she transformed the former Sub-Dimensional Plane into the ‘Court of Silence’ as it is now.
Noland Lee once had a question:
If every wizard could extract mana from natural phenomena upon reaching the rank of Three-circled,
then the overall mana level in the Realm of Wizards should be abundant, so why are Magic Stones still so expensive?
After being exposed to “Magic Plane Studies,” Noland Lee found the answer.
First of all, “natural phenomena,” since they are called “natural,” must be from the Natural World to be considered “natural phenomena.”
