Chapter 1 The Danger of Carles

In the office of Kresito.

Xia Zhou was attentively listening to Leytunia's description of what had happened.

He had captured key information.

It had been four days since Carles began his alchemical transformation.

Every morning, afternoon, and evening, a pureblood mage would come to check on his condition.

Leytunia was responsible for the afternoon check-ups, Xinfia for the morning, and Kresito for the evening.

Leytunia noticed Carles' anomaly this afternoon.

Earlier during the day, Carles was perfectly fine when Xinfia checked on him.

Xia Zhou read over the diaries of Leytunia and the rest, and confirmed that the exact time Carles' Blood Rune anomaly was discovered was at 5:20 in the afternoon.

Before this, Xia Zhou and Rexasor were conducting experiments in the underground alchemical chamber...

It was hard not to link these two things together.
