Angele knew that Freia was planning something, but he was not concerned. He melted the long sword and absorbed it into his skin. The metal layer on his body was made with normal precious metals after the fight with Eye Devil and the magic resistance was much lower than before.
Without the magic resistance material from the claw warriors, there was not much he could do. Also, the claw warriors almost disappeared from this world and Angele was lucky that he had met several ones on the west coast. However, the wizard culture was much more developed in the central continent, and such materials would only be used for the gear specially crafted for wars. It was nearly impossible for organizations to share them with the members. Angele thought that the ones he met were trained by the owner of the mansion.
He could probably get some claws by asking Vivian, but the Elemental Hand was at war and he did not want to bother her with unimportant matters.
Anything could happen in the Nightmare Realm; he would find the items he needed sooner or later.
Angele took Freia to the dining hall and they started having dinner.
The only noise in the hall was made by knives and forks. The three did not say anything, they just focused on finishing the food.
"Orphie, come to my room after dinner," Angele suddenly spoke in a calm tone. "I mean, the reading room."
"Sure, master." Orphie sounded a bit surprised but her expression did not change. She knew the day would come—she found that the way Angele dealt with Freia was a bit strange and she thought that an "old monster" like Angele must have some weird hobby.
Freia acted like she did not hear the conversation and was just eating her food.
The white bread and meat corn soup were finished by her within seconds; she almost choked on the food, but she hated the black pepper steak and she did not even touch it.
"I’m full." She put down the silverware, pushed the chair away, and left the dining hall.
Angele glanced at Freia, and again, he knew that the girl was planning something. After finishing the dinner with Orphie, Angele turned the silverware into a large ball, which was absorbed by his skin. The leftovers were collected in a bowl, then frozen by the energy particles.
The silverware was controlled by the metal force field, but the remains of the food would just fall down.
Angele moved the plates over to the rubbish bin before turning them back to the metal liquid; the remains would drop into the bin easily.
He took Orphie to the second floor and entered the reading room after cleaning the table.
*Crack*
The door was locked by Angele and the black snake rune appeared on its surface.
"Alright, take a seat." A gentle smile appeared on Angele’s face. Orphie was still glancing around and he sat down first on a chair beside the window.
Orphie nodded. "Thanks." She sat down on the opposite side. "What should I do?" Angele did not do anything to her in the last several days so she did not think that she was in danger.
"There’s something I need to tell you." Angele cast an illusion spell on himself to cover his strange appearance after returning to the mansion as he did not want Freia to get scared.
He just looked like a normal human being at the moment.
"I think you know that the reason why I took you away from Eye Devil was not that I wanted to save you. You don’t have anywhere else to go, so I took you back to my mansion. To be honest, I have several human friends and I don’t want to eat you, but we’re just strangers to each other and I don’t want to give you the resources for free. That’s the problem."
