I have a Synthesizer

Katie heard her title and a look of reminiscence appeared on her face.

“Song of Azure Skies, I’m afraid only people from the Jay Society would remember that. I still prefer people calling me Katie, or Colonel Katie, understand?”

Gwen nodded.

“I understand, Colonel Katie.”

Katie brushed the dust off her military uniform and said casually.

“Then, I now need to have a conversation with my husband. You shouldn’t stop me again, right?”

“Of course not, I only have the duty to protect Lord Esmond, I have no intention of offending you!”

Katie smiled.

“You have good talent, don't be discouraged by today's failure, the road is still long.”

Gwen, who is seen as a super genius by others, is probably considered not bad in Katie's eyes. This is the cruelty between the weak and the strong.

And Katie also has the qualification to evaluate Gwen like this.

“Yes, I understand.”

Gwen was a little surprised that Katie would say these words to her.

After all, although her status in the Jay Society is not low, her reputation is not very good.

Katie smiled inexplicably, perhaps others would discuss the relationship between Gwen and Esmond, but Katie would never think so.

Because she knew better than anyone else that Esmond wouldn't dare.

Passing by Gwen, Katie opened the door to Esmond's office.

…

At this time, Esmond was standing in front of his window smoking a cigarette. For some reason, his nicotine addiction has been very high recently.

Katie stood behind Esmond, quietly waiting for him to finish smoking. Both of them were unusually calm.

Esmond turned around, put the pipe on the table next to him, and said.

“How long has it been since you came back here?”

“More than ten years, I forgot the exact time.”

Katie walked to Esmond's bookshelf and familiarly opened a book. There was a photo in the book.

The photo showed five young people, who were also the five founders of the Jay Society. Looking at the photo, she also showed a trace of reminiscence.

Esmond nodded.

“What did you come back for this time?”

Hearing Esmond's question, Katie put away her memories and her face turned cold.

“Did you do what happened to Mira?”

She can be a title powerhouse hidden in the military, or a founder of the Jay Society, but she is also a mother to several children.

Today, some things have long faded and become blurred. The former pursuits of the Jay Society have also become irrelevant to Katie.

Now, there are very few things that Katie cares about, and several children are her only concern.

Facing Katie's questioning, Esmond was silent for a while.

“Mira's matter was just an accident, it was my negligence.”

“I'm asking, did you do it.”

“Is it for Klein?”

“That's right.”

“Okay, very good! Esmond, when you did these things, did you ever think that you would face my anger?”

Katie stretched out an arm, and blue energy gathered in her hand, gradually turning into a moonlight-like long sword.

“Moon Gleam!”

The huge slash swept out from the tip of the sword and appeared in front of Esmond, but Esmond didn't panic at all, nor did he retreat.

A magic shield appeared around him, and Esmond pressed one hand towards Katie's slash, and began to release a cyan-white light in his hand.

“Arcane - Disintegration.”

Katie's sharp Moon Gleam slash trembled silently in front of Esmond, unable to move forward, and finally dissipated.

Her expression was slightly stern, but the sword in her hand did not stop, and she quickly waved it. Each slash was a Moon Gleam, and endless slashes flew in Esmond's office.

And Esmond's hand didn't stop either, arcane energy had already gathered in his hand.

Countless arcane missiles flew towards Katie like a rain of meteors, and the number was dozens of times more than the Moon Gleam slashes.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The office of the highest tower of the Jay Society was instantly shattered by the attacks of the two.

Gwen, who was waiting outside the door, trembled a little as she watched the two confronting each other inside, and could only quietly wait for the Jay Society building to repair itself.

Smoke filled the air, and the two stopped their hands in tacit agreement.

Katie looked at Esmond with some complexity. The person she used to know best was now so unfamiliar.

The former Esmond was really just an ordinary arcane mage, the logistics staff of the Jay Society, the kind who focused on kneading bread.

The useless professor at the Royal Academy was a true reflection of Esmond.

Katie couldn't imagine how much hardship and effort Esmond had put in to improve his strength to this point by studying arcane magic.

“Esmond, I didn't expect that you could improve ancient arcane magic to such a point, it's simply unbelievable.”

Esmond regained his smile. This was the first time he had the qualifications to be on an equal footing with Katie in terms of strength.

No one would understand the things he had endured over the years, and no one could deny the power and everything he possessed today.

“You all left, and the Jay Society no longer has the highest-end combat power. If I don't improve my strength, the Jay Society will immediately fall apart.

Moreover, if I don't have the strength, how can I suppress this group of people in the Jay Society?”

When the Jay Society was mentioned, Katie's expression softened slightly.

“You have done a lot for the Jay Society, I admit that, but that's not a reason for you to hurt Mira.

You shouldn't have let Klein and Joe join the Executive Department of the Jay Society either.”

Esmond chuckled.

“Katie, my love, do you think you are still qualified to say these things to me now? You don't have it anymore.

You simply don't understand their potential. Your potential, your aptitude, has been perfectly absorbed and inherited by them.

Especially Klein, he is far more excellent and perfect than you and I imagined.

Or rather, Klein is more excellent and perfect than you.

Although he is still a bit naive in doing things, it doesn't matter, he will grow up very quickly.”

“Esmond, you're already crazy.”

After taking a few deep breaths, Esmond suddenly became angry and said loudly.

“No, I've never been crazy. It's always been you who are wrong.

Including you, Katie, it's you who have forgotten the meaning of the Jay Society's existence. You are afraid, you are running away.”

When the meaning of the Jay Society's existence was mentioned, Katie's expression dimmed a lot, and she stopped arguing with Esmond.

“I'm going to see Klein and the others.”

Esmond picked up his pipe again and smoked it.

“Go ahead, the children haven't seen their mother for a year.”

Katie was about to leave when Esmond suddenly stopped her.

“Wait.”

“What's wrong?” Katie stopped.

“Even if they are our children, Klein and Joe also belong to the Jay Society, not to us, Katie, I think you should understand what I mean.”

Katie also took a deep breath, regained her composure, but did not look back.

“I know what to do.”

Watching Katie leave, Esmond relit his cigarette and showed a meaningful smile.
