About half a magic hour later, Anvis left Prince Lanno's residence.
During that half magic hour, Anvis and Lanno had held preliminary discussions regarding some of the details of their cooperation.
In the end, both sides were fairly satisfied with the outcome.
Prince Lanno had found a powerful ally when he was at his weakest, while Anvis had made an investment that would yield rich returns in the future.
Of course, the two publicly declared it to be merely a tentative meeting.
Considering that descendants of several other major families had also met with the Prince in a private capacity, Anvis's actions did not seem abrupt.
Anvis believed that, with Prince Lanno's intelligence, he would certainly seize this opportunity.
Throughout the conversation, though he was somewhat curious, Anvis did not attempt to peer into Prince Lanno's fate.
As an imperial Prince, he was bound to carry high-level prophetic Artifacts to prevent Prophets from using divination magic to peer at him.
Recklessly attempting to peer into him would not only yield nothing, but could also easily expose Anvis, arousing Prince Lanno's vigilance and hostility and bringing trouble upon himself.
Every descendant of a true major power had such anti-divination measures on them.
They were meant to prevent malicious Prophets from secretly peering into their Fate Lines and interfering with them while they had yet to grow strong and were still weak.
Casually toying with a Fate Gold Coin in his hand, Anvis looked up at the sky.
At this moment, Sae had risen to nearly the center of the sky, casting dazzling, faintly scorching platinum-white light.
Rather than taking a floating disc directly back to his residence, he strolled leisurely toward the Summoning Academy.
From time to time, streaks of colorful light hurried overhead, flying toward various parts of the academy.
