"Isha, are you there?"

Just as Isha put down the book in her hand and kept massaging it to relieve the tingling sensation in her head.

There was a soft knock on the door outside the room.

It was Ronan's voice.

Isha glanced at Alice, who was already asleep on her bed, and then came to the door.

"Brother Ronan, what's the matter?"

She opened the door and looked at Ronan standing outside the door, then noticed the soup bowl he was holding, which was steaming.

"Just call me brother." Ronan is on the right path.

Isha just smiled at this and didn't speak.

"At lunch, I noticed that you were eating a little less, and you didn't seem to be in good shape." Ronan lifted the ginger soup in his hand, "Is it convenient for me to go in?" ”

"Please come in." Isha stepped aside and led him into the room.

"Compared to Triumph City, the climate of the Cold Wind Collar is much colder, and you may not be used to it for a while when you first come, so it will be more comfortable to drink it while it is hot."

Ronan placed the ginger soup on her table and glanced at the books spread out not far away.

Are there any blueprints for the watch?

Ronan knew this, after all, this was the product he designed after finding the craftsman Leo and communicating with each other.

It is convenient for him to carry it in his hand so that he can clearly understand the time.

There are many components such as gears, bearings and hairsprings, etc., which require high precision and are difficult to achieve with the current craftsmanship of craftsmen.

So far, Ronan has only used the alchemy furnace to make one for himself and wear it on his hand.

The design drawings were put aside for the time being and stored in the castle's library.

However, large pendulum clocks can be considered for manufacturing, and technical problems are constantly being overcome.

Don't underestimate this kind of clock, the imperial aristocracy has an unimaginable fanaticism for this kind of high-end luxury jewelry that is not harmful and can reflect their elegant status.

Today, the empire built a tall bell tower that is regarded as one of the highest symbols of urban civilization.

Many lower-ranking nobles had to build up their own cities even if they crowdfunded each other or even borrowed money from everywhere.

Because only in this way can they get rid of the name of the nobility in the countryside, so as to participate in the social circle of the great nobles and get more resources.

The principle of the Imperial Clock Tower is to use gravity to pull the shaft at the other end and the gear to rotate the pointer.

In contrast, the clock in Ronan's hand, driven by the gravity pendulum, is at least a hundred times more accurate.

And the size is smaller, enough for private collection, and the two are not comparable at all.

Ronan was looking for an opportunity to sell it.

When the time comes, find some chambers of commerce to brand this kind of clock with the name of the royal family and market the fame.

Before the technology was cracked on a large scale, the price of less than a hundred gold coins would look down on these big nobles.

It's cheap, and people aren't happy about it.

The way to make a name for himself by force Ronan was ready to let Jackdaw finish, and as for himself, he was not prepared to be unknown for a long time.

This kind of high-end luxury goods is his business card to the outside world.

Not only can he harvest a lot of wealth for the Coldwind Collar and promote trade, but it will also increase his popularity.

As the current count of the kingdom and the emperor's younger brother, he can fully support this reputation.

And there is no need to worry about the jealousy and greed of other nobles, on the contrary, it can increase their favorability,

Retracting his divergent thoughts, Ronan looked at Isha in front of him.

The latter was picking up the ginger soup with both hands, and under his gaze, he drank it in small sips.

The already pink lips are even more touching under the moisture of the ginger soup.

As if noticing Ronan's eyes, Isha blinked, then turned her back to him.

After a while, he put the bowl down, took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of his mouth, and turned his head to look at Ronan embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry Brother Ronan, I'm a little unused to being watched."

Obviously, I didn't react to you at first, and I didn't turn around until I stopped on my lips, Ronan retorted in his heart.

It's just that on the surface, he still nodded in understanding.

"I feel better now, thank you." Isha smiled as she handed the bowl back to Ronan.

"If you have any questions, you can tell me, and if you feel bored in the castle, you can go outside with Alice."

Ronan said calmly, "This is my territory, as long as you don't run too far, no one will pay attention to your identity." ”

Since arriving in the Coldwind Territory, Isha and Alice have stayed in the castle without going out.

It's certainly not that the two girls are afraid of unfamiliar surroundings.

Ronan knew that they didn't want to get themselves in trouble.

Alice had been yelling that the clothes were too thick and ugly, and not wanting to wear them was an excuse for her to avoid suspicion.

In fact, with the continuous arrival of pure spirituality, Ronan can already continue to create second-order self-puppets.

With the addition of the crows and knights patrolling, the entire Coldwind Collar has long been completely controlled by him.

Not only that, but he also set up an interception line in Blackstone City, and any abnormal situation will be intercepted by him as soon as possible.

So he didn't plan to keep the two girls in his castle.

"No, if my news gets out, it will bring a lot of trouble here." Isha shook her head, rejecting his kindness.

Ronan didn't speak, but looked at her quietly.

"But if Brother Ronan is very powerful, it doesn't matter." Isha said with a smile after thinking about it.

"For example?"

This time it was Isa's turn to fall silent, except that she raised her little hand towards Ronan.

The two hands were separated by a head's distance, and they stopped between the two of them.

A moment later.

Ronan reached over and expertly let Isha hold her hands on either side of her cheek.

Sure enough, he already recognized it, and Ronan was not surprised.

He didn't mean to hide it from the beginning in the kingdom of God, and then whether it was a room that simulated Alice or a doll on the bed, Isha could detect that something was wrong.

After all, when she was in Triumph City, she came to the house more than once to spend the night and sleep with Alice.

Then he coincidentally appeared in Triumph City and brought the two of them back, coupled with the unique development of the Cold Wind Collar.

With Isa's intelligence, it was easy to guess his situation.

It's just that the next development is not what Ronan expected.

Isha stroked his cheek, confirmed the familiar touch, and then calmly withdrew her hand.

Well? What's going on, it's clear that you are so affectionate when you call me in the kingdom of God, why don't you look excited at all after meeting in reality.

No, I shouldn't be at the level of seeing the light and dying, right?

Ronan was a little confused, and suddenly he couldn't figure out what Isha was thinking now.

"I get headaches from time to time, it's not because I'm not used to the cold weather." Isha suddenly spoke, "The Gift of the Silver Moon and the Blood of Heroes are creating a conflict within me. ”

Hearing her formally explain her question, Ronan breathed a sigh of relief and listened earnestly.

"As for the solution, in fact, my mother has already arranged it for me in advance." Isha stared at Ronan's face, "The Silvermoon Gift has long taken root in me, and I can't continue to bear the blood of the awakened heroes. Therefore, I need to strengthen my mental strength in a short period of time to suppress my awakening. ”

Ronan nodded, it was the same method he had imagined.

"Do you know the methods used by the Silvermoon Cultists to strengthen their spiritual powers?"

Hearing her words, Ronan remembered the Silver Moon Order he had seen earlier in the Ironstone Realm's mines, and his promiscuous behavior made him frown.

"Among them, the indulgent faction will use various ways to constantly forcibly stimulate their senses, so as to improve quickly."

"My mother's temperance faction is to select one person, restrain their desires in other situations, and constantly accumulate emotional energy, and then completely release it with the chosen person, so that both parties can get spiritual upliftment."

Isha's mother, the wife of the previous emperor? Ronan thought to himself.

It is no wonder that the emperor wanted to marry a heretic in order to strengthen his spirit so that he could better ascend to the kingdom of God.

Uh, wait, is it possible that the so-called release is what you imagined?

Ronan reacted suddenly, looking at Isha's smile that was still as gentle as water.
