Chapter 5627
The Wind Spirit Wolves flicked their tails at Antigonus' words, howling in what sounded like
a response.
Circe was even more shocked as she reached Antigonus and could not help but say, "You...
Are you alright? Gosh, I forgot to tell you there were Wind Spirit Wolves in here."
As she spoke, Circe's expression was nothing but apologetic and shocked. However, she
was not used to lying, and she could not look Antigonus in the eye.
"I'm alright!"
Antigonus took a deep breath before responding. He tore off a strip of cloth from his shirt
to bandage his wound, putting on a frail expression.
The truth was that those two gashes were hardly anything to Antigonus.
Circe sighed in relief at his response. 'Thank heavens he's fine. He almost lost his life just
now.'
Circe realized that 'Beka' had not been hiding any powers after all, yet she was still
confused, and could not help but ask, "How did they get so obedient all of a sudden?"

Antigonus fell silent before replying calmly, "About that... I learned beast language from a
skilled wanderer of the world some time ago. I thought I'd try speaking to them when they
attacked me. I can't believe it worked."
As he spoke, Antigonus pretended to wipe at the cold sweat on his forehead.
"That was close, though. I thought I was going to die."
There was no way he could tell the truth about the Fiend race blood, and thus, he could
only make up an excuse.
'So, that's the case.'
Circe nodded in realization. There were many beast tamers across the world a long time
ago who were able to tame the fiercest of beasts and even talk to them in beast language.
However, it was a skill that had long since disappeared as time passed. It was incredible
that the man with not much powers knew how to converse in it.
At the thought, Circe could not help but ask, "Where is that wanderer now, if I may ask?"
Antigonus smiled bitterly. "I learned beast language centuries ago. I really don't know
where he is now." 1
Circe's expression flashed with disappointment and she did not ask any further questions.
She saw Antigonus’ pale expression and said softly, "You've bled a lot. Get some rest."
Upon speaking, Circe shooed the Wind Spirit Wolves away. However, the wolves had been
tamed by Antigonus' Fiend race blood, and lay there not daring to move at all.
At the sight, Antigonus petted them on their heads. It was only then that the wolves got
up meekly, slinking back to their home.
Following that, Antigonus bid goodbye to Circe before returning to his room to get rest.
Whew!
Circe stared at Antigonus' retreating figure, unable to help the exhale she let out as her
gaze flashed with an unreadable expression.
Despite the test having proved that 'Beka' was not very powerful, Circe had an
unexplainable hunch that there was something about the man that she could not put her
finger on.
Upon giving it some thought, Circe headed straight to the study.

Tuji was deeply engrossed in an ancient scroll when Circe entered, and his face lit up with
a kind smile at the sight of her. "You seem to be in a hurry, Circe. Is something the
matter?"
Circe bit her lip softly before she exclaimed, "Father, I tested that Beka!"
Following that, Circe described what had happened in full detail.
Upon listening, Tuji stopped short. He closed the scroll he was reading, his expression
grim. "This man has close to no powers, but knows beast language? Interesting. I knew
this guy wasn't what he appeared to be."
As he spoke, Tuji pondered briefly before smiling at Circe." Alright, you'd better get some
rest. You can stop thinking about this for a while."
His daughter was powerful and skilled, but she lacked experience in the wandering world
and could be easily tricked.
Tuji had thought it through. He was going to see about Beka 1 for himself.
Late at night, the Lange garden was silent.
Antigonus sat cross-legged in the middle of his room.
All that could be seen was a white fog appearing above Antigonus' head as he summoned
his Fiend soul energy, the gashes on his shoulder healing rapidly.
