After returning the two calculation orbs and the iron box that recorded the data to the other party, Karl obediently followed Olivia and the others back to the castle.
Although he psychologically respects the old scientist, the look in his eyes always makes him feel that he is being threatened by some kind of strong threat, so he might as well forget about this generous invitation.
Several people returned to the castle and were led by Olivia to a room on the second floor.
Speaking of which, Karl was quite familiar with this place. It was still the same office where Olivia hired him. The decoration of this room had not even changed much. The only difference was that the files on Olivia's desk were smaller than the ones on Olivia's desk.
There used to be more.
Sitting back in her chair, Olivia smiled and said as she did a few years ago:
"Carl, welcome back."
Looking at Olivia with a smile on her face, Karl also smiled:
"yes."
"Although I have gone through a lot, I am still back."
Looking at Karl who was chatting happily with her, Olivia kept a smile on her lips and continued:
"Have you experienced a lot?"
"You have a lot of experience, so I'm quite curious."
"Our great God Slayer, perhaps we should call you Mr. Evil Destroyer?"
"Don't say that." Looking at Olivia's teasing expression, Karl immediately waved his hand, "I just took advantage of her bad condition to deal with that guy. If it were a perfect god, I would do it today.
No chance of returning to London."
"No, Carl, you are too modest."
Just when Karl was being polite, Joanna on the side also spoke.
The judge was exactly the same as the last time Karl saw her. Even the folds on his cloak had not changed much. Time seemed to have stopped on this person.
Combined with this guy's ability to survive from the Age of Gods to the present, Carl has reason to believe that this is the effect of some kind of extraordinary power of Joanna, otherwise a person would not be able to maintain his condition for such a long time.
On the other side, Joanna was unmoved by Karl's assessment and was still describing her opinion on Karl's killing of gods:
"After all, Morrigan is also one of the gods with almost the highest status. Being able to successfully kill him is enough to prove your strength. This is something that can be called a legend in any era. Karl does not need to be so humble.
"
While boasting about Karl, Joanna also looked at the current Karl. Obviously, the judge was also very curious about the guy who had not seen him for several years.
She could still see the talisman and magic level of the man in front of him back then, but she was completely unmoved when they met again today.
Leaving aside the incomprehensible magic power and talismans, every move of the other person since they met gave me a premonition that 'this person' is dangerous.
You must know that after killing the clone of Lord Eidolon, her current amulet is at the top of the third stage, and the next step is to become a true god in the world.
It will bring you this kind of feeling, which is enough to show that the current Karl is by no means an ordinary person, and the fact that he killed the god is undoubtedly real.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
When she saw Karl and Joanna looking at each other and the atmosphere in the room began to change, Olivia spoke decisively:
"Karl, you'd better tell me why you want to come back to London."
"As the slayer of gods and the great figure who started this era, you must have some reason, right?"
"..."
"Reason?"
Looking at Olivia, whose expression was getting serious, Karl thought briefly before continuing:
"If I have to say it, it's probably because people who have been traveling for a long time want to go home. After all, isn't the house you gave me still in London?"
"Pfft"
Hearing Karl's answer, Olivia laughed directly.
"What's your reason?"
"If you want a house, you can pick any country in the world. As long as you are willing to go, it won't be a problem for them to let you live in the palace, right?"
Looking at Olivia who was smiling happily, Karl slowly leaned his back on the chair, staring at the ceiling above his head, and then he continued:
"Olivia, I probably know what you mean."
"Actually, after successfully killing God that day, I have been in a coma from which I could not wake up. It was not until recently that I successfully regained consciousness."
"If you have to ask me why I came back here, maybe it's because of habit..."
Seeing Karl say this in a serious tone, Olivia also retracted her laughter.
"You were actually unconscious for so long?"
"What on earth is..."
Before Olivia could finish asking, Karl interrupted her directly, and then told her about his situation during this time:
"During the time when I was in a coma, Cyril was always taking care of me. After all, a god-killing transcendent fell into a coma, and then appeared in the world with great arrogance. What are the consequences of doing this, Olivier
Ya should know better than me, right?"
"..."
"It's Cyril."
"She is still as smart as ever."
After being silent for a while and sighing, Olivia slowly opened her desk drawer, then took out a stack of packed white paper and threw it to Karl.
Taking the blank paper easily, Karl immediately asked:
"What are you doing?"
Looking at Karl who looked confused, Olivia immediately showed a bad smile,
"hehe."
"Now that you're back, don't you, the consultant, think you should write a report to me, the employer?"
"You can't be absent from work for so long and then not pay any price, right?"
Hearing Olivia speak like this, Karl also understood what his old friend meant.
So he smiled kindly and replied:
"That makes sense."
Picking up a pen from Olivia's desk, Karl immediately began to write down his experience in Africa on these white papers, from when he and Cyril just got off the ship to the final killing of Morrigan.
Go up.
Only when it came to some details involving the dream world or the identity of God Cyril, he would ignore or modify them within a reasonable range. Generally speaking, it would not cause any misunderstanding or ambiguity.
"Miss!"
Just as Karl was immersed in writing the mission report, suddenly a cute maid burst into the office.
Karl calmly looked at the little girl who rushed in. This was a child he had never seen before when he lived in the castle. She should be the servant Olivia Xin hired over the years.
Then standing in front of Olivia's desk, the girl spoke:
"There is a little girl named Cyril outside the castle. She also said that she and you are acquaintances!"
