Maria Edwards was surprised:

"You actually know this? Yes, the dangerous man you described is Uncle Envy Edwards. He is very special in the family. Our bloodline inherits a unique spatial power, so everyone has a unique spatial talent. For example, I am very talented in finding special abnormal spaces. When Uncle Envy was very young, he showed a talent for space and a talent for time."

Miss Sylvia raised her eyebrows and glanced at Shade:

"This talent is indeed very rare. So, why was Envy Edwards imprisoned by your ancestors when he was very young? What kind of experiment was performed on him?"

"It was indeed an experiment to develop an elixir of life, but other things were added later. I don't know much about it, and that is the core secret of our ancestors. I can only tell you that our ancestors gave Uncle Enwei a longer life, and then allowed him to continue exploring unknown spaces, continue to travel to the past, and obtain the secrets of the other side of time."

She did her best to describe what she knew:

"I haven't received formal training as a ring wizard, but I also know that frequent explorations of space and time will definitely cause trouble. In the end, Uncle Envy Edwards paid the price for this. He was punished for transcending time and space and became a big problem that even our ancestors found difficult to deal with. What you just said about him being trapped in a coffin was actually a special containment by our ancestors."

Maria Edwards commented cautiously:

“Even our ancestors didn’t expect that Uncle Enwei would end up like this.”

In this way, the murals seen in the secret room under the well in Mr. Thoren Green's dream can be explained. One side describes the experiment of immortality, and the other side describes the exploration of time and space through doors, which eventually leads to losing oneself.

"Your ancestor was really brave. Although the ancient gods of time and space have long gone, this does not mean that the rules of time and space that form the basis of the material world can be toyed with at will. Although there is no evidence to prove whether the 'Guardian of Time and Space' exists or whether it is the rumored unknowable relic, he will definitely be punished for doing this."

Miss Sylvia said seriously that the Great Witch of Space knows space best and is therefore the most cautious.

"The chosen one of space destroyed space..."

Shade muttered in his heart, and Maria Edwards blinked:

"I'll give you three chances to ask questions. If you're willing to spend the second time, I can reveal some of the reasons why our ancestors did this."

Xia De naturally nodded:

"No problem, why did he do that?"

"The Poetry Card is an angel-level relic. Our ancestors hope to use Uncle Enwei to go back through history and find the ancient hero that is most suitable to be summoned with this relic."

Xia De and Miss Sylvia looked at each other. The witches certainly knew the key information provided by Luvia:

"Did Envy Edwards get the answers before he completely lost control?"

The woman's soul thought:

"I only heard about this on the island, and I also heard the wailing in the well in my dreams at midnight. I think the answer has been found. The ancestor only mentioned this once in front of me, and he was very excited at that time. This is a rare emotional expression for the ancestor. He said that he found his goal. If he can really succeed at that time, 'Unity as One' and 'Two in One' may be able to achieve better results."

Miss Sylvia pondered this information silently, but Shad thought of more.

The fortune teller on the island had clearly mentioned that he had guessed the existence of the "Sixth Era of the Past" the night he landed on the island to look for Leicia. Although the fortune teller didn't know that this had happened six times, he had guessed it after all.

Therefore, Shade had to think about Envy Edwards' time travel, and what era he went to and what he was looking for. Of course, Edwards and others could never enter the sixth era of the past, after all, that time had been completely destroyed by Luvia, and Shade could only enter because of the strange black time key.

But when the two things were combined, Shade had a huge feeling of uneasiness in his heart. The Poetry Card could summon a hero who was sung in the past, although the target of the summoning was not a complete body, which was completely inferior to the effect of his low-level sublimation words "The echo of time and space shakes the sleeping power". However, his sublimation words could only summon the great witch corresponding to the "Witch's Remnant", while the "Poetry Card" had no identity restrictions:

"No way? Although I know he has outstanding talent, if he uses the relic to call out... isn't this too exaggerated?"

Maria Edwards didn't know much about this, so she told Shade and Miss Sylvia all she knew. Shade and Miss Sylvia also understood this, so they didn't dwell on this topic for long.

There was one last chance to ask, so Shade discussed it with Miss Sylvia. In the end, they did not ask about the island anymore, but changed the question:

"Among the Edwards who are nominally controlled by your ancestor, who is the most dissatisfied with him and most wants to leave the family?"

"That has to be my niece, Nadia Foran."

Maria's answer was quick:

"She is the daughter of my brother, Edward Edwards, the second son of the fourth generation. Niece Fulen was arranged to die by the ancestors when she was old, and then she was sent to the family. After some rituals and experiments that I don't know, she regained her youth and became a ring warlock. She is now a priestess of the Dragon Feast Cult and is quite powerful. She has done a lot for the family, which has directly led to a deeper cooperation between the family and the cultists.

Before I ran away from the family, I knew she wanted to get rid of it all and live her life again... I ran away from the family because of her influence."

In this case, the person who was dissatisfied with the family that the old corpse ghost Nicholas Green hinted at should be Ms. Foren. Now that all parties are making preparations before landing on the island, in Shade's opinion, he needs to find this lady and have a good talk.

Maria Edwards was reluctant to leave the flower field. Although Shad and Sylvia persuaded her to go to the Green Lake Hotel and live with her grandchildren before the last day, since there was no need to hide now, she was still stubborn and refused to leave, preferring to wait for the family banquet alone.

Even though Shade mentioned Mr. Nicholas Green, who had been looking for her for so many years, Maria Edwards just sighed with a gloomy expression, but still shook her head:

"He is an adult and he has his own life. I will apologize to him at the family gathering."

So Shade and Miss Sylvia looked at each other again, and Shade became the "bad guy":

"It's like this, Luster is definitely going to leave with us, and she's still thinking about returning to Durut Giles."

Hearing the familiar name, the soul of the girl sleeping in the woman's arms immediately flew out and circled around Xia De's head:

"Giles~Giles~"

"Druut Giles? Who is this?"

The gentle woman asked, and Xia De explained:

"He used to be a grave robber, but he doesn't rob graves anymore. He is a university lecturer with a regular job and I heard he earns quite well. Miss Last likes him very much and has been living with him... Miss Maria, you don't want your great-aunt to be with a strange man..."

"I'll go to your place!"

The woman's soul said immediately, and Shad tried hard to control himself from laughing, but at the same time he felt that Edwards' family relationship was really interesting.

She did not leave with the two of them right now, but asked for the location of Green Lake Hotel, planning to go there alone tonight. This was not a problem, so Shade and Miss Sylvia also got up and said goodbye and left. As long as she was willing to move to Green Lake Hotel, there would be plenty of opportunities to ask her about other situations before the final day.

Both Shad and Miss Sylvia were very satisfied with this visit to the flower field. When they walked out of the path in the flower field with Last, who was chattering and about to go back, they even talked about the grand banquet tonight.

Since Margaret was invited as the protagonist, Miss Sylvia would naturally go with her. This banquet was the most grand and luxurious banquet in the region since the Green Lake negotiations. All the great witches were invited to attend for various reasons. Nobles from both countries gathered, and even the Five Gods Church participated.

Miss Sylvia would also go back to prepare her costumes soon. When the two of them came out of that hidden space, she even took the initiative to invite Xia De to dance with her in the evening:

"You will probably be very busy tonight. Except for Karina, who doesn't want to ruin her image by dancing with a strange man, all the other girls will invite you."

As she spoke, she became even more excited:

"Let Carina watch from the side, and then we will take turns to invite you to dance. After the dance, when it's the next person's turn, we will take turns kissing your cheek in front of her... Just thinking about this scene, it feels like it would be nice to relax in this way before the Battle of Green Lake. Tonight, no one can disturb the banquet."

"Um... ... "

Xia De was not in a position to comment, but it was a pity that the Red Butterfly Day had to be held on the day of the final battle next Wednesday, otherwise Dorothy could have gone with him. You know, Leicia and Dorothy liked the Red Butterfly Day at this kind of banquet the most.

"Of course we can dance, but we don't have to do it in Jia... Hmm?"

The flower path had reached the end, and they left the hidden flower field. When the normal sky appeared above their heads, the two of them, even Rust Edwards, subconsciously looked up at the sky:

“Oh, God~”

The entire azure blue sky was like a shattered mirror, with dense cracks clearly appearing on the sky. And in those cracks, the scenery of a strange countryside was clearly reflected.
