Since all the hero techniques she had used originally belonged to Rei, she felt there was no need to hide anything from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Rei listened, his admiration grew to its peak. He smiled widely and clapped his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's amazing! Your skills are truly incredible!\" he praised in awe. \"I was worried you'd get hurt earlier, but it turns out I was wrong. You're so strong! Could it be that you've inherited all my fighting techniques in the future?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evalyn felt proud of the compliment. She nodded and replied, \"Yes, I've mastered everything. But there's one thing I still haven't been able to learn.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her expression showed both embarrassment and helplessness. Rei immediately understood and chuckled softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My fighting style?\" he guessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evalyn was startled and asked without thinking, \"How did you know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next moment, she remembered Nolan. \"Did Nolan tell you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rei nodded without hiding it. \"That's right. He's the one who told me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evalyn fell silent for a moment before smiling broadly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see. By the way, Ancestor…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glanced around. \"Where's Nolan? Why don't I see him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earlier, she had thought Nolan would be there to greet her along with Roseline and Rei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Strangely, he was nowhere in sight, which left her confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nolan…\" Rei let out a small sigh and explained, \"He went to take care of some business.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Some business?\" Evalyn froze. \"What kind of business?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't know.\" Rei shook his head. \"He just said it was crucial—something related to the future of your era.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shrugged, as if he truly didn't know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, that was a lie. Nolan was currently heading to the Tower of Silence to investigate the magic that had transported both Rei and Lucas to this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he couldn't tell Evalyn—because Nolan had asked him not to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So that's it…\" Evalyn pouted in annoyance, but there was nothing she could do. Nolan had always been like that, so she wasn't too surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Relax. He'll be back once he's finished.\" Rei reassured her. \"The most important thing right now is that I'll help you learn my fighting style. What do you think?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evalyn's annoyed expression vanished, replaced by a bright smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really, Ancestor? You're not lying, are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rei smiled faintly. \"Of course not. Why would I lie to you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's great! Then once you're fully recovered, let's start training!\" Evalyn raised her hands in excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cold, mature demeanor she always showed in front of others disappeared. What remained was a young woman who had regained her spirit and innocence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rei gazed at her with gentle eyes. Although Evalyn was his descendant from a distant era, a seed of affection was slowly taking root within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tower of Silence, research room…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ugh… this is so annoying!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man scratched his head in frustration. His gaze was fixed on the formula before him, depicting a magic circle nearly two meters in diameter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The magic circle looked strange and unusual. While magic circles typically had only seven lines, this one had twenty, drawn over and over again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hah…\" The old man let out a long sigh as he rubbed his temples. \"It seems recreating the same magic is truly impossible. What happened in the past must have been a coincidence… or perhaps the resources used back then were simply too vast—enough to summon those two people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shook his head slowly, then walked over to his desk. Picking up a glass of water, he took a sip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the cool water flowed into his body, he felt refreshed, and his mind gradually calmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can't believe I can't reproduce the same magic they used,\" he muttered irritably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was Orrun Crone—one of the Seven Great Sages of the Tower of Silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, compared to the other six Great Sages, he was considered weak—one might even call him a failure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't possess a large mana capacity, so he was unable to cast powerful spells.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His magical power was also low, and he grew exhausted easily after casting only a few spells.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, the true value of his abilities lay not in his magic but in his research.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had created many powerful spells, which were later added to the ancient archives of the Tower of Silence and studied by the students there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, as one of the Great Sages, he felt deeply ashamed of his weakness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why he now wanted to create a teleportation spell to another world, just as the other sages had once done when summoning the two heroes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in his opinion, the magic they had used was flawed and full of shortcomings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them was the need for enormous resources, along with the requirement for multiple celestial-level mages to cast the spell simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, no matter how hard Orrun worked, he couldn't complete it—and that only frustrated him further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was considering whether to give up, a knock sounded at his door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knock!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Great Sage Orrun, someone wishes to see you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orrun snapped out of his thoughts and glared at the door in annoyance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who wants to see me?\" he demanded, his voice rising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked over and opened it. A student from the Tower of Silence stood there, looking panicked and frightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-I don't know him,\" the student replied timidly. \"B-But that person said he could help you complete your research.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Orrun's expression changed. The research he was currently conducting—Two-World Teleportation Magic—was known only to him and a few other Great Sages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could anyone else know about his research?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could someone have leaked it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how hard he thought, he couldn't find a reasonable answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take me to where that person is,\" he said urgently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The student didn't dare object and immediately led him to where the mysterious \"guest\" was waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the waiting room, a handsome man with black hair and purple eyes sat calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze surveyed the interior with a faint smile on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just as expected of the Tower of Silence—this place has a peculiar sense of aesthetics.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps because they were mages, their perspective and taste differed from ordinary humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Nolan waited, the sound of footsteps came from ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up and saw the student who had greeted him earlier walking alongside a short, elderly man with a thick white beard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nolan's smile widened as he recognized the old man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Seventh Great Sage, Orrun Crone…\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1105,"2026-05-30T06:57:33.623Z","2026-06-01T04:30:35.482Z",1,"novelbin.me","648cd8b4c27b1276b2709efd98304febbae4998f1c240a6b88a5bc4349f90d5b","the-hidden-extra-the-lazy-prince-refuses-to-asce-chapter-631","the-hidden-extra-the-lazy-prince-refuses-to-asce-chapter-630",748,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-hidden-extra-the-lazy-prince-refuses-to-asce-cover.jpg"]
