Chapter 445: Low Investment, High Return, From a Different WorldTamor Castle.Caspian gathered all the council members in the meeting room and told them everything that had happened during this period.From the birth of Miraz's son, forcing him to flee into the forest to escape pursuit, to his blowing the horn to summon the Kings and Queens of Old Narnia, then their night raid on Tamor Castle, and finally today's great battle.After understanding the full story, the council members all expressed their support for Caspian X to become the new King of the Telmarines.They had no choice but to support him; Caspian was the most legitimate heir to the throne, not to mention they had already witnessed the power of the Narnians, especially Aslan, today.It was a powerful magic they simply couldn't resist; their army was almost powerless before Aslan.A crushing defeat made them realize that their Telmarine ancestors' occupation of Narnia was pure luck, because Aslan hadn't bothered with them.Now the initiative was back in the Narnians' hands, and Caspian stepping forward to become a bridge for friendly communication between the Telmarines and Narnians was exactly what they wished for.The next day.King Caspian, wearing a crown, along with the four Kings of Old Narnia and the Narnian people, entered Tamor Castle amidst the enthusiastic welcome of the Telmarine citizens lining the streets.He was going to fulfill his previous promise and return freedom to the people of Narnia.However, the specifics of how to do this still needed to be discussed with Aslan, Peter, and others. He couldn't just disregard the lives of the Telmarines for the sake of the Narnians; that would make him a very unsuccessful King.While the few of them were discussing how to properly handle the issues, Aaron took over Cornelius's room.The servants had cleaned it thoroughly; it was no longer a mess like before.Aaron lay on a chair, looking out the window at the area below the Castle. The Telmarines and Narnians still maintained a certain safe distance, but the children were less wary, playing happily together, enjoying themselves.Suddenly, he felt a warmth on his left arm. Pulling back his sleeve, the familiar family crest was faintly visible."Ha! What a short trip that was!"A slight smile appeared on Aaron's lips. Less than ten days had passed since he arrived in Narnia. Compared to the previous world, both the difficulty and the time were in easy mode."System, open the mission panel.""Alright, Host."[Save Narnia; Mission Reward 1000 magic points; Completed]"Low input, high reward!" Aaron secretly sighed. This mission looked quite difficult, but compared to his previous missions, it was practically effortless.No brain cells were damaged, no powerful enemies were faced, and although his teammates weren't very reliable, besides the unexpected White Witch, he could easily handle everything else."Claim.""Claim successful. Your current magicpoints are one thousand four hundred and fifty.So... do you need to spend any?"Aaron's mouth twitched, and he patted his forehead in exasperation."My reward hasn't even gotten warm yet, aren't you a bit too impatient?""This system is always thinking of the Host," the System said righteously. "Everything is for the Host to become stronger as quickly as possible.""Heh heh! Do you think I believe that?If I really wanted to get stronger quickly by putting everything into magic points, I should at least be an Intermediate Archmage by now," Aaron grumbled, then changed the subject, "However, I do have something I want to buy.System, open the store.""Alrighty!"Amidst the System's cheerful voice, a blue light screen appeared before Aaron's eyes.[magic Category:@ Airwalk (100 magic points, flight speed depends on personal strength); @ Eye of Awareness (1000 magicpoints, see through disguises, see through souls); @ Astral Projection (300 magic points); Blank; @ Killing Curse (300 magic points)][Material Category:@ Deep Sea Octopus Tentacle (5 magicpoints); @ Seaweed (1 magic point); Blank; @ Acromantula Venom (10 magic points); Blank][Item Category:@ Razo Mask (2500 magic points, wearer can summon the Shadowkhan Blade Clan; Note: Collect ten masks to control the Shadowkhan Kingdom); @ Veritaserum (70 magic points); @ Firebolt (50 magic points); Blank; @ Big Bowl Instant Noodles (5 magicpoints, one person definitely can't finish it)]"It hasn't been refreshed in a long time, it really looks a bit simple!" Aaron chuckled self-deprecatingly, then decisively spent a thousand magicpoints on the Eye of Awareness.The next moment, Aaron felt an itch in his eyes, as if something had changed, but he couldn't quite describe it."Mirror, come."A mirror flew in front of him, hovering steadily in mid-air under the effect of the Levitation Charm.Aaron carefully observed his eyes in the mirror. They were still the same deep black, but compared to before, there was a touch of mystery, as if they contained a vast world, making them difficult to fathom."Eyes that see through illusions and souls?" Aaron murmured, "Not bad, but not very useful right now.""You're wrong, Host," the System said languidly. "In a sense, the Eye of Awareness is even more cost-effective than forbidden magic. You'll only truly discover its value when you use it.""I hope so!" Aaron didn't take it to heart, then turned his gaze to the System Store.Two of the five product slots in the magic category were blank, but among the remaining three, Airwalk and Astral Projection were only partial abilities of the Chicken Talisman and Sheep Talisman. He could use those two Talismans later, so there was no need to waste money now. As for the last one, the Killing Curse... he had already learned it.The Material category had two blank product slots, and the remaining three might be useful.The Item category had only one blank product slot. Among the other four, the Razo Mask was a must-have for him. Professor Snape had Veritaserum, so buying it would be a waste. The Firebolt was a bit useless to him. As for the last one, the Big Bowl Instant Noodles, Aaron thought about it for a while and decided to keep it. What if the next trip was still a wilderness survival situation? This would be a reserve food supply!"System, refresh the entire magiccategory, individually refresh the blank product slots in the Material category, the blank product slot in the Item category, and Veritaserum.""Alright, Host. This refresh will cost five magic points."As the voice fell, the store interface changed accordingly.[magic Category:@ Mist Illusion (600 magic points, can put opponent to sleep); @ Healing (300 magic points, detoxify, heal wounds, remove abnormal statuses); @ Telekinesis (1000 magic points); @ Divine Punishment (2000 magic points, create virtual life from magic-containing items by resonating with one's own magic and surrounding magic); @ Fire Control (300 magicpoints)][Material Category:@ Deep Sea Octopus Tentacle (5 magicpoints); @ Seaweed (1 magic point); @ Holy Water (30 magic points, effective damage against demons); @ Acromantula Venom (10 magic points); @ Bee Sting (1 magic point)][Item Category:@ Razo Mask (2500 magic points, wearer can summon the Shadowkhan Blade Clan; Note: Collect ten masks to control the Shadowkhan Kingdom); @ Firebolt (50 magic points); @ Sheep Talisman (1000 magic points); @ Book of Prophecy (500 magic points, occasionally makes effective prophecies, but not necessarily what you need); @ Big Bowl Instant Noodles (5 magic points, one person definitely can't finish it)]Aaron looked at the new store interface and couldn't help but nod.In the magic category, Telekinesis was a partial ability of the Chicken Talisman, and as a Fire Dragon Slayer Wizard, he didn't lack fire control ability.But he was quite tempted by the remaining sleep magic, healing magic, and divine punishment magic. The Material category had an additional Holy Water and Bee Sting, which were harmless. The appearance of a Talisman in the Item category was within his expectations, but the Book of Prophecy surprised him a little.However, it was still the same old story: money was never enough. Not being able to buy what he wanted and not needing most of what he could buy made him feel a bit awkward.Helplessly, Aaron put all his remaining magic points into magic power, bringing himself a small step closer to becoming an Intermediate Archmage."So, next..."Aaron looked at the World Tree mark on his arm, and after a moment of contemplation, silently pulled down his sleeve.Even if he was going home, he should at least say goodbye to Caspian and Peter. Although they hadn't known each other for long, having fought side by side made them friends... All the Telmarines and Narnians gathered before a large tree at the King's summons.Caspian stood at the front. To his left were Aaron and the four Pevensie siblings, and to his right were Aslan and several representatives of the Narnian people."Narnia belongs to the Narnians, and also to humans.We welcome any Telmarines who wish to stay and enjoy a peaceful life.If anyone wishes to leave, Aslan will send him back to the homeland of our ancestors," Caspian said."We have been away from Telmar for too long," an elderly Telmarine said."I'm not talking about Telmar," Aslan said, looking at the crowd below. "Your ancestors were a group of bandits. Later, they landed on a small island and discovered a cave there.That strange cave brought them here. They and the Kings and Queens come from the same world.I will send you back to that island, which will be a paradise for you to start a new life."The Telmarines began to whisper, and even Peter and the others looked a bit uneasy."People are ultimately different!" Aaron exclaimed from the bottom of his heart. "You four reclaimed Narnia from the evil White Witch and rightfully became wise monarchs.The Telmarines, however, did the exact opposite, taking Narnia through war and becoming tyrannical rulers.""Shut up!" Peter was also a bit speechless. "We four are not from bandit origins, and neither are you.""Tch!" Aaron pouted, then looked at Aslan. "If the Telmarines and Petercame from the same world, if they went back, would they... be out of touch with the times?""No," Aslan shook his head slightly. "That island is very secluded. They will live there peacefully and gradually catch up with the times.""I am willing to go," General Sopi from the crowd said. "I accept your arrangements.""We accept too." Miraz's wife didn't want her son to follow the old path of power struggle, so she stepped forward with her son and father."Because you are the first to say yes, your future in that world will be very good." Aslan blew a breath towards them, giving them his blessing.The large tree slowly rotated counter-clockwise, and an archway appeared at its trunk.The three walked towards the archway, and before they reached it, they disappeared.There was an uproar below. The Narnians were fine; they trusted Aslan unconditionally, but the Telmarines felt a little panicked by this unknown magic."How do we know he isn't leading us to our deaths?" someone asked doubtfully."Your Majesty," Reepicheep stepped forward, "if my example can help you, I will immediately take eleven mice and go through.""You guys don't join the fun," Aaron rolled his eyes. "Animals don't talk in that world. If you go, who knows what a commotion you'll cause.""But...""We're going too," Peter said."Are we leaving now?" Edmund asked, puzzled. The last time they came, they were Kings for quite a long time before returning."Come, our time has come," Peterwalked up to Caspian and handed him his sword. "We are no longer needed here."Caspian hesitated for a moment, then took the King's sword, "I'll keep it safe until you return.""That might be difficult, we won't be coming back," Susan said."Not coming back?" Lucy asked, a bit confused, "What does that mean?""You two might still come back," Peterexplained. "That's Aslan's will.""Why?" Lucy asked, looking at Aslan, "Did they do something wrong?""Quite the opposite, my dear.Everything has its time. Your brother and sister have learned enough from here; now it's time for them to be independent.""It's alright, Lulu.One day you'll understand too, come on!"Peter took Lucy's hand and, with Susanand Edmund, went to say goodbye to the Centaur leader and Trumpkin and the others.Before leaving, Susan shared a passionate kiss with Caspian, then stood beside Peter."Tsk!" Aaron clicked his tongue, teasing, "I could tell you two liked each other long ago, but this relationship is destined to end without resolution.""Perhaps I'll understand when I'm a bit older," Lucy said."Good luck.""By the way, Aaron, where is your home?" Edmund asked. "If we have a chance, we might visit your home.""That... let's just forget it!" Aaron scratched his head. "Wizards generally don't interact much with Muggles, cough cough, I mean ordinary people.""That's too distant!""He comes from a different world than you," Aslan suddenly said. "A much richer and more colorful world.""What?"The four opened their mouths in surprise. Various fragments of their interactions with Aaron over the past few days flashed through their minds, and suddenly it seemed like it was only natural."So... our world doesn't have magic, right?" Lucy asked with some regret.Aaron shrugged, "Unless something unexpected happens, that's correct."
