Chapter 41 Animal Language Part 5

"Magic beasts tainted with black magic change their form into dangerous dark magic beasts. The faction leaders are just a bunch of stupid and cowardly old people. I have dedicated my life to reading nature and understanding the structure of animal language. No wizard can understand the language of dark magic beasts, only you can count on your fingers. Ten thousand years ago, in the kingdom era, the medieval era, and not necessarily in the modern era like this, there were still wizards who could understand animal language."

"Doesn't that mean that you are a wizard who can understand animal language?" Lucas asked.

"Yes, I am one of the wizards who can speak animal languages. Language or communication. Like signals, visuals, sounds, echolocation, vibrations, body language, or smells. I understand sound communication, understand how much more powerful language is dark magic beast." The old man stroked a cat on his lap, which of course was not an ordinary cat, but a dark magic beast.

One of the wizards who can understand animal language is talking? That means there is another wizard who can speak animal language. The monkey that attacked Peter and Cloe was a dark magic beast, the beast was very aggressive and seemed to have its own goals, as if someone was controlling the monkey, a dark magic beast.

Traces of mana and non-mana aura left in abandoned buildings are concrete evidence. A wizard and a non-wizard are involved.

"You said that you are a wizard who can communicate with dark magical beasts, does that mean that there are other wizards who also have the ability to communicate with dark magical beasts?" Lucas asked seriously.

"I don't know."

It was as if there was a big question mark in his head. It is not easy to find someone just by relying on evidence in the form of mana or non-mana aura left at the scene. But Lucas thought Culture knew enough. Turns out it wasn't. He started to protest, but was only stopped by Lisa.

"I just said I really don't know. All this time I have lived alone in this big house, accompanied only by my pets and my faithful servants. I have not contacted my family, I have cut all ties with them. In my big house, I have chosen my servant to do all my work. Including transactions in and out." Culture drummed his fingers on the edge of the chair, considering what might be his advantage. "Does this have anything to do with the attack on Illois?"

Lucas and Lisa looked at each other. There had been two incidents in a very short period of time. First, the theft of high-level magic items from the Illois Magic Academy, and second, the attack by dark magic beasts in the city of Illois.

Lisa made a serious face. "Old man, don't humiliate yourself. You are very good at finding information, apart from your ability to do business in the black trade. You don't need to leave the house, but you can use the dark magic beast and your subordinates to dig up information. Should I accuse you of attacking civilians in Illois?"

"Attacking civilians? I ordered my pet dark magic beast to attack civilians?" Culture's face was like a cooked crab, ready to be taken out of the frying pan. Of course, being accused of something made him angry. "I hate non-wizards, but that doesn't mean I use my dark magic beasts to attack them. I'm not that petty with them. Look at them, non-wizards making stupid connections in the name of justice. What justice do they want? It's all just empty talk."

Make both parties hostile. Wizards and non-wizards have a dark history from the past to the present. The Empyrean Blue Nation is led by nine factions of mixed wizard and non-wizard variety.

"I am not interested in your complaints. I just want to know, is it possible that dark magical animals were ordered by someone to attack the residents? You certainly know that from the video." Lisa tapped the silver bracelet, a red light flashed and a holographic screen appeared in the air, showing video footage of the attack by dark magical beasts in Illois, then switched places to where Peter and Cloe were attacked by the same type of dark magical beasts.

Culture scrunched up his face several times, then returned seriously to watching the video footage being played. Then, as the video showed, it switched to the attack on the Illois Magic Academy. His expression crumpled again, but there was tension and sadness that could not be hidden. After the video clip ended. The living room was silent. Culture exhaled several times, it was so heavy and a weight hit his body. The face that was full of arrogance and cunning now looked the opposite.

"I can't help you much, but I owe your parents a lot, Lisa. My subordinates have only heard through the grapevine about the purchase of dark magic beasts, and some say that a dark organization has been reborn. The non-wizard organizations have been around for a very long time, perhaps hundreds or thousands of years, and to this day they are still around, though not in great numbers."

"Dark Organization? I've only heard of that organization, no one has ever mentioned it. What do you mean, this organization is connected to the attack on the Illois Magic Academy and the city of Illois?" Lucas raised his eyebrows. This new information was enough to make him wonder.

On the other hand, Lisa got this information from Professor Abbe. She only knew the information she had, but was quite surprised by the new information she got.

"You are quite familiar with non-wizard organizations, including the one that has recently appeared. The organization called Justice, the Honor of Ordinary People. This organization was founded a long time ago, and in the past the non-wizard organization was not called Justice, the Honor of Ordinary People. The name they use is an old and very old name, and the current generation leading the non-wizard organization is Lorenna Timothee, a founder of the Orphanage Foundation. But the records of the dark organization were burned or someone burned them on purpose. Nobody knows. They did it on purpose, burned their past historical records and hid everything. But not me, who is an expert in gathering information. Of all the records that were lost or burned, I got this record from this person.

Culture went to the bookshelf and took out a worn colored book with a pitch black cover. He showed it to Lucas and Lisa.

"This record tells about the first founder of the dark organization and the enemy of the non-wizard organization. I just came to the conclusion that those people who attacked the Illois Magic Academy and stole high-level magic items were probably from the Dark Organization. One of them is that they have the ability to talk to dark magical beasts. I could have brought that person to you, that person would be the one who knows all the information, I'm not much like that person myself. But of course there's a reward."

Lisa rolled her eyes. The information they got from Culture was very useful, but the old man only benefited himself. There are rewards for wanting this information, including the person he insulted.

"Old man, I will give you nothing in return. Don't use my parents' names if you still want something in return. Just tell me, who is this person and where does he live?"

Culture snorted, his hands busy stroking his beloved cat on his thigh. "I told you, it will be difficult for you to meet him. This person is not like me, who is still generous to you. This person will not hesitate to attack you, no matter if you carry my name."
