'We're from the west coast and it's my first time visiting a city in the central continent. Is there any advice you can give me on that?' Angele modified his mentality frequency and responded.

He had to chat with the woman using mentality waves and they needed to be on the same frequency. Angele was certain that the reason why the woman did not notice the conversation between him and the chip was the special frequency.

'The west coast? Wizards still live in that poor area?' The woman sounded surprised. 'The resource points are weak and the wizards there aren't talented. You won't be able to advance to the next rank there.'

'It sounded like you lost your physical form not so long ago...' Angele narrowed his eyes, west coast should be strong in the ancient time.

'Don't think too much about it. You saw that, right? Stigma already became stronger after talking with the old bastard Arisma. His mentality is now strong enough for advancing to the Crystal stage. What do you think? Are you jealous?'

'Jealous? Yeah, I'm jealous but I have my own plans. I think the fundamentals are important. Increasing mentality too fast will be a big problem in the future.' Angele had a blank expression on his face.

'Come on. Everyone knows that, but the problem is, what is the future you're talking about? Your progression is so slow that you won't even make it to the future. Advancing to the next stage or next rank as fast as possible will be a better option. The higher your rank is, the longer you'll be able to live, and you'll have plenty of time to solve all your problems. You won't pass on such a great opportunity if you're a real wizard." The woman chuckled. "What do you say? You want me to help you?'

'I don't even know your name. I can't just trust you like that.' Angele stood by the campfire and saw Hikari having a conversation with Reyline. Angele did not draw too much attention, so he walked to the bush and made it look like that he was searching for herbs.

The woman hesitated for a minute and finally spoke, 'Just call me Henn.'

'Alright, master Henn. I have several questions to ask. First, what is the Key of the Shadow? How did you get into my body?' Angele wondered.

'You don't need to worry about how I got into your body, but I'll die if you're killed.' Henn chuckled. 'For the key...You have a special key, right? That key is called the Key of the Shadow. All the core members of the Axis of Time have one. Who did you steal it from? There are a whole group of shadow beasts in the key, so you should take advantage of that.'

'What exactly is this Key of the Shadow?' Angele questioned.

'The Axis of Time was the strongest organization that ruled the whole west coast. The situation was totally different back then. The resource points are rich and the wizards there were gifted. 15 keys were crafted and were given to the 15 wizards in charge of the most important areas. The keys were used to open special doors and yours is one of them. I don't know what the key can do but it can stop the energy from leaking. This feature will help me to preserve my power regardless of time. However...'

'What?'

'It seems like someone has left a rune on the key. It means that the owner of the key is not dead yet. He'll track you down sooner or later.' Henn sneered.

'Track me down? Ha, I already arrived in the central continent. I don't think the owner of the key is strong enough to survive the trip. It will take him a long time to get here. I'm confident that I can win the fight against a weak wizard.' Angele shrugged.

'You're right. Maybe this one lost his power, too...'

'Master Henn, I'm curious, how did you and master Arisma lose your physical forms? You must be a strong wizard, right?' Angele tried to dig deeper.
