The cabin is located deep in the Tsukino Forest.
Sophie looked at the familiar cabin in front of her, raised her hand and pushed open the door she had not seen for a long time.
The furnishings in the house were the same as when she left, and the air was faintly filled with the unique fragrance of forest plants.
Sophie went to the utility room on the basement floor of the cabin with ease.
In the corner of the utility room, there is an inconspicuous bookshelf.
On the bookshelf, there are a few old books piled up in groups of three or two, and the covers of the books are all covered with a thick layer of dust.
Sophie carefully stretched out two fingers and picked up one of the books.
"Fortunately, this one is still here."
Thankfully, she cast a cleaning spell on the book, and a brand new book instantly appeared in her palm.
The book is written entirely in red, with no complicated patterns or unnecessary descriptions.
Just four big words: "Family Secrets".
Simple, clear and concise.
"It's still the ancestors who understand me."
Sophie smiled and turned the pages of the book, reading it carefully.
As time went on, her expression kept changing, and eventually her eyebrows were twisted into a knot.
"The title is so straightforward, but why is the content so obscure and difficult to understand?"
Sophie closed the book with a curse, and now she couldn't laugh anymore.
She only understood the four words in the title of the whole book. Who is she guarding against?
"It might as well be a comic book like the last one."
Although the quality is a bit poor and I feel like burning myself after reading it, at least I can understand it, right?
Sophie was mumbling and was about to put the book into the storage bracelet when Xiao Ai suddenly flew out of the bracelet.
"Hey, hibernation is over? You finally woke up."
Sophie jokingly caught Xiao Ai's struggling body, but she never expected Xiao Ai to be so angry that she couldn't stand being told a word more and just opened her mouth and spit out fire.
Fortunately, Sophie reacted quickly and turned her head to avoid it, but the book in her hand was not so lucky.
"Xiao Ai, aren't you a dragon? Why are you so fierce?"
Sophie threw away the burning book in her hand and jumped up in anger.
Now, only half of the book was burned, and the already obscure text became even more difficult to recognize.
This is something passed down from her ancestors!
Sophie looked at the incomplete book and felt depressed.
"Wait, what is that?"
Sophie squinted her eyes and suddenly found that there seemed to be something written on the back cover of the book.
She picked up the torn page and looked at it carefully, and found that there was a line of small words on the back cover.
If you don't look carefully, it's really hard to find.
"It requires dragon breath to reveal its true form..."
Um??
It was quite unexpected.
Sophie realized later that Xiao Ai had noticed something and came out to help her.
Looking at its arrogant and difficult-to-coax expression, Sophie took out a big pig's hoof.
"Here, I saved this especially for you."
Xiao Ai's eyes lit up, and she immediately happily picked up the big pig's trotter and started to chew it.
Sophie patted its little head lovingly, then picked up "Family Secrets" and started reading again.
According to the description in the book, Sophie roughly understood the witch clan's past glorious deeds and the subsequent setbacks they encountered.
The turning point of all things lies in the magic seal of the monster that Hall mentioned earlier.
The book calls it "Roy's Rebellion."
As she read deeper, Sophie's brows furrowed deeper.
It turned out that the turmoil that year almost destroyed the entire witch clan, and the ancestors paid a heavy price to seal the monsters in various places.
But now, the seals are broken everywhere, and the monster king "Roy" may reappear in the world at any time...
wrong!
Sophie thought of something and her expression suddenly changed.
She grabbed Xiao Ai who was still eating and disappeared from her sight in an instant.
