Chapter 248: Chapter 23 Fiona’s Physical Examination

Hearing the sound of the Magic Doorbell, Fiona immediately woke up. Seeing Anvis outside the door, she quickly closed the book in her hand, gestured with her hand, and opened the door.

“Meow—”

The little cat Kate let out a soft meow, her one blue and one green large eyes blinked, somewhat puzzled by the sudden end of the adventure.

In the dream realm of books, it had gained a special and fun ability to appear out of thin air. It was very similar to its counterpart in the story, a cat from an unknown place called ‘Cheshire,’ always smiling.

“I hope I haven’t disturbed you, Fei.”

With a graceful smile, Anvis stepped into the room, looked at Fiona who was in a comfortable, light-colored dress, perching her little feet, and lying on the soft sofa with Kate, and asked straightforwardly.

“Have you received a letter from father?”

“Brother, are you talking about that recent prophecy?”

The girl nodded, her delicate little face slightly drooping, and her lake-blue eyes full of troubled expressions.

“Father told me in the letter to be particularly careful about my safety lately, and if necessary, to seek out your help, brother.”

Anvis nodded gently, affirming the girl’s guess.

“That’s right, Fei. We are currently at Pamir Academy, and there shouldn’t be any problems for the time being. However, this prophecy has far-reaching implications, and I’m afraid it won’t be long before someone comes testing us.”

“Fei, be extra vigilant when going out. Although the chances of outsiders directly making a move on you and me are slim, it’s still necessary to be prepared for this possibility.”

While speaking, Anvis, in front of the girl, put on his Mercury Eyes. Through his higher Destiny Vision, he peered into the girl’s fate line to see if there were any changes.

Fate is not unchanging, on the contrary, the Net of Destiny is constantly transforming.

One second, he was a good-for-nothing son-in-law, and the next second, he turned into a Child of Destiny, sucked into an ancient site that suddenly opened, and inexplicably became bound to the highest control access of the site.

Forbidden ancient weapons, Alchemy Demon Statue Army, lost ancient treasures, everything was there. Then directly after three years, the time came for the Dragon King’s return.

Nobody could understand why the Net of Destiny would undergo such changes. This is also where the famous motto of the Prediction School comes from—’Fate is fickle.’

It was precisely because of this that Anvis tried to artificially create a Child of Destiny.

In a purely silver view of fate, Fiona and her little cat both emanated a platinum radiance, with brilliant and ethereal lines of starlight extending from the tops of their heads, reaching into the endless Destiny Mist.

However, there seemed to be no change in the girl’s fate line.

She was originally a Child of Destiny, and the protective power of fate shielded her fate line, making it impossible for Anvis to see any difference from before.

But what surprised Anvis a bit was that the fate line of the little cat Kate seemed to have become much brighter,

At the time he left Moon Castle for the Academy, its fate line was only at the level of a noble pet cat. But now, the brightness of its fate line was not inferior to some Mid Rank Professionals.

This change implied that its achievements in its cat life would far surpass those of ordinary Professionals, and even more so the vast majority of its kind.

Clearly, this should be related to the girl’s fate.

“Brother, what are you looking at?”

Noticing Anvis’s actions, Fiona looked at him with some puzzlement, her eyes catching the silver glow of the lenses.

She faintly sensed that there seemed to be a strange fluctuation scanning her body through Anvis’s monocle.

“Nothing much, just a simple scan of your fate line to see if there have been any changes, and whether it is related to the prophecy.”

The boy with deep blue eyes smiled, reached out and took off the monocle, and carefully placed it into a special pocket on his chest.

“So, have there been any changes?”

Hearing Anvis’s explanation, Fiona’s lake-blue eyes widened with curiosity, and she sat up straight.

“No, the Holy Light on you is too bright and I couldn’t see anything.”

Anvis shook his head.

“Of course, that’s not necessarily a bad thing either. At least it makes it very difficult for others to pry into your destiny.”

“I see…”

The girl nodded somewhat regretfully but then quickly perked up with a spirited expression.

“Don’t worry, brother Anvis, I’m almost at Fourth Rank now, I can protect myself!”

She picked up Kate who was beside her and excitedly showed it to Anvis.

“And look, Kate is already at Second Rank, a bona fide pet cat now. She can protect me too!”

“Meow~”

As the girl spoke, Kate let out a meow in cooperation, raising a fluffy white paw, exuding great momentum!

Speaking of which, Fiona suddenly remembered something and turned to Anvis with some concern.

“Right, brother, you have to be careful too! You’re only at the initial stage of Third Rank right now; compared to me, the possibility of them targeting you is probably even higher!”

The diminutive girl widened her eyes, her face serious.

“Target me?”

Taken aback, Anvis suddenly remembered that on the face of it, his strength seemed to be even less than Fiona’s.

“Also, I heard father mention that a Bloodline Awakening can boost one’s strength, brother Anvis, have you awakened yet?”

This question was somewhat embarrassing.

Looking at the girl in front of him whose bloodline was fully awakened, Anvis found himself at a loss for words.

“Well… I might have to wait until Fourth Rank to undergo awakening.”

Unlike the girl who awakened her bloodline at First Rank, even though he had improved both of his bloodlines to Level Ten through acquired means, he still needed to undergo a Bloodline Awakening ritual after reaching Fourth Rank to unleash his bloodline potential.

Before awakening, a Bloodline Mage only has passive element control. It is only after a full Bloodline Awakening that a Bloodline User can wield all bloodline abilities, including special talent class magic and Ancestral Form.

But the strength he currently displayed was at Third Rank, and moreover, it had only been half a year since his breakthrough.

For a typical genius, even with the aid of various supportive treasures, it would take more than a decade to break through from Third Rank to Fourth Rank. Even Duke Carrot himself took a full five years to break through to Fourth Rank.

To ‘break through’ to Fourth Rank in a short time again, he would need to find a somewhat reasonable excuse.

For example, during a casual stroll outside, he accidentally tripped and fell into an ancient ruin and discovered a bottle of ultra-ancient Secret Medicine.

Due to being past its expiration date, he died on the spot after consumption and then fiercely came back to life, breaking through to Fourth Rank amidst the stimulation of life and death.

“…So, you must also be careful yourself, brother. If you encounter enemies too strong to defeat, then come to me, and I’ll protect you!”

Fiona was not aware of what Anvis was thinking; she was just seriously advising Anvis.

In the girl’s memory, although her brother always appeared calm and reliable and was very knowledgeable, his strength was still somewhat lacking.

The screening at Pamir Academy was very strict, and family guards were not allowed inside.

Thinking of the picture books she had seen before, with stories of handsome princes and valiant knight ladies, Fiona couldn’t help but clench her little fists.

If that’s the case, then the delicate brother shall be protected by the super strong Miss Fiona!

“Alright, dear Fei, I look forward to the day that comes.”

Surprised by the girl’s declaration, Anvis then nodded gently towards her with a warm gaze, his smile very pleasant.
