"What do you think?"


    The condition was good. Since he had the right to refuse, he could certainly avoid longsting injury because of venom or something else.


    At the same time, he could also see a portion of the goal of this research. "If you seed in this experiment, I''m afraid that it''s like opening a huge door…"


    "Exactly." The Water Lord smiled. "I won''t lie to you. If I seed in this experiment, my name will surely go down in history. And I promise that I won''t forget about your assistance.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.


    "Though, I might not be the first one to find it. After all, this research starts with a note…"


    Noel looked down, contemting for a moment. As the Water Lord said, if he seeded, there would be a whole new world opened to them.


    They might be able to solve a problem with the liquid in case someone who had purification ability was present.


    It could also aid the mixing liquid whether in the form of a war weapon or household utility.


    His name certainly would go down in history. But Noel was more curious about the paper instead about this research.


    "I have a few questions. Just answer the one you can answer." Noel raised one finger. "First question, where did you find that note?"


    "I think this is already a public secret. Do you know what lies outside the border?"


    "Demons?"


    "No. A limitless possibility." The Water Lord shook his head. "Everyone already knows about this little secret that everyone thinks it''s a fairy tale. Humans once conquered the whole world. Only when the demons came did they perish.


    "However, the civilizations didn''t perishpletely. Some still remain, and that note is one of them."


    "!!!" Noel widened his eyes in shock. "Do you mean…"


    "Yeah. I believe that the past humans have actually gone beyond what we currently have. And I''m just trying to rediscover a portion of the secret." The Water Lord smiled.


    "I see." Noel thought for a moment and said, "Alright. I can help you with this experiment. Having the right to refuse is big as well, so I don''t have any reason to reject your proposal."


    "Then, we have a deal?" The Water Lord smirked excitedly, feeling that there would be a huge breakthrough soon.


    The Water Lord and Noel shook each other''s hand while Rose didn''t know what to say about this cooperation.


    It was clear that the sess of this task would be a huge help for Noel. But Noel had forgotten something.


    "Still, I believe it''s not the time for you to show your real identity…" Rose added, concerned about Noel''s safety.


    The Water Lord seemed to have expected it and nodded. "Don''t worry. I understand that. In fact, I don''t desire his downfall either."


    "Hmm?" Rose narrowed her eyes, feeling something off from that statement.


    Looking at her confused expression, the Water Lord exined a bit of his intention.


    "Whatever I''m doing right now, it doesn''t change the fact that I have been interested in the heir of the Ardagan Family." The Water Lord turned to Noel. "Your father is a great man. Even I have heard his good name.


    "And his son is as talented if not more talented than him. Since I don''t have any grudge against your father, I might as well help his son.


    "Even though the royal family doesn''t like you, I can see that you are trying to gather a lot of outside help to re-establish your family. So, I''m simply acting as one of them… I wish to see another Count Ardagan, one that is strong and loves his people."


    The Water Lord was implying indirectly that he also loved his people like Luke Ardagan. So, he wanted to help Noel, believing he would do the same thing as his father.


    Noel and Rose still felt a hidden intention behind his statement, but that wasn''t necessary for the time being.


    Noel waved his hand to stop Rose from asking another question. Then, he said, "I understand. Let''s work together."


    The Water Lord and Noel finally reached an agreement.


    Since Noel had decided and the Water Lord had given enough exnations, Rose finally stopped reminding or interfering with the decision.


    Because of the agreement, Noel and Rose decided to stay inside the castle. The Water Lord even offered the best treatment he could give.


    Before they started working, Noel would be training his body, making sure he didn''t ck off just because he had something to do.


    Rose also followed him while the Water Lord prepared for the research of that day.


    From the morning to the afternoon, they focused on the research.


    Noel would be purifying a lot of liquid, from poison to weird chemicals. It was a lot of work, and Noel didn''t understand most of the things the Water Lord wrote down.


    He wasn''t someone who worked in this area after all, so he didn''t have to understand all this. Still, he was also a bit curious as to what kind of liquid they would be after the purification.


    Sometimes, the water level went down as if everything had just evaporated into thin air, leaving only a small portion of water. In fact, the liquid might only beposed of that amount of water.


    The Water Lord also continued on with his work, trying to get whatever he could find during Noel''s stay.


    He made a lot of progress as he said previously. After all, his exnation of Noel''s ability was correct. What he was searching for was none other than the molecules.


    Although Noel wouldn''t be with him by the time he found it, it didn''t change the fact that the biggest contributor to this experiment was Noel.


    He swore that he would add Noel''s name when someone wanted to publicize his achievement. It would surely give good publicity for Noel, who wanted to rebuild his family.


    Time went by so quickly. Without them noticing, Noel had stayed for eight days and the work had beenpleted.


    Noel and Rose were standing in front of the castle''s gate, ready for their departure. The Water Lord was seeing them off as a friend.


    "Thank you for helping me with this research. It truly means a lot to me." The Water Lord extended his hand.


    "Yeah. It''s truly a fruitful week." Noel nodded while shaking his hand.


    "If you ever visit this ce again, I will wee you greatly."


    "Haha, the next time I visit you is probably the day you get the medal for your achievement." Noel smiled. "Good luck with your work."
