I Can Give Talent

Chapter 214 – Gentle Dorin

What is going on? When did this happen? Is Dorin dead? No, Dorin is still alive. That's why I could still smell her. What should I do? I don't think anyone else can detect this.

So many things went through Anda's mind in that instance. The idea of an imposter living among them for such a long time was unsettling.

Anda calmed down and decided to act normally first. She really had no idea what to do regarding things like this. Later, she would go to the Multi-Element Sect and ask for their help. Since they have three Soul Formation experts, they should know something about it, right?

"Dorin, are you alright? I heard that you have been depressed since your father disowned you." Anda asked the question that she would ask the real Dorin.

There was no point in trying to expose her right away without knowing how to deal with it.

But knowing that an unknown entity like this had been living with them for two years made her heart chill. If not for her ability to detect something like this, wouldn't it be possible for it to happen to anyone?

"Madam Anda, I'm fine now. You don't have to worry about me. I'm not that fragile," Gentle Dorin replied with a smile, her voice soft.

"Is that so? Then I don't have to worry anymore. But are you sure you want to be here? We're mostly discussing our husband, you know. It might be too much for a maiden like you," Anda teased. She acted no differently from how she usually was.

"Actually, I've come to like that country bumpkin more and more, so I'm trying to learn more about him. Don't worry about me. I'm just here to listen," Gentle Dorin replied softly with a slight blush.

Country bumpkin? That's how Dorin usually referred to Leyvi. Is this thing stealing her memory or something?

"You like our husband now? What happened? Don't you prefer handsome guys? You don't want to recruit them anymore?" Anda asked curiously.

"I'm not sure either. I still like to see handsome men, but for some reason, my heart beats faster when I see that country bumpkin. And when he shows that he dislikes me, I feel sad. Sayu told me those are the signs that I like him."

When Gentle Dorin mentioned Sayu, Sayu felt embarrassed all of a sudden. She had only repeated the things she read in romance novels. She didn't know whether it was true or not.

Everyone, stop looking at me. I'm not a romance expert.

Anda chuckled. "That's too bad then. Leyvi already has a bad impression of you. It's going to be hard for you to win his heart. I can only wish you good luck."

Gentle Dorin smiled. "I'm aware of that. That's why I'm trying my best to change myself and be a better woman. I realized that I used to be very obnoxious and unlikable."

Anda tried to gather as much information as possible while conversing with Gentle Dorin, but now she didn't know what to think anymore. Is she Dorin or not? But what about the other smell?

When she talked about smell, she didn't refer to body odor but the smell of their existence and intense emotions. So far, she had judged most people accurately with her ability, but not everything was correct.

Sometimes people change for the better, but she would still smell the past actions that had become part of their existence. Sometimes their existence didn't give off a suspicious odor, but the odor of their intense emotions revealed their true intentions.

In Dorin's case, Anda couldn't smell her emotions' odor at all throughout their conversation, so she couldn't confirm her intention. To Anda, anyone who could control their emotions to the point where her ability couldn't detect them was dangerous.

She put the strange matter at the back of her mind for the time being and continued with the meeting.

Anda asked the ladies' opinions about the Holy Rod Artifact and then tested one herself. She praised Sawi for being able to create such a great product even though it was her first time in the creation field. After all, not long ago, she was just an average array master in charge of array and formation maintenance.

All this showed just how incredible the legacy left behind by her legendary ancestor was.

Anda was proud that her husband managed to recruit a lady with this much potential into the family effortlessly.

In the future, a Fairy Maiden, a Saintess, and a Goddess would also join their family. What a beautiful future!

After that, Lilian informed Anda that the Crimson Desirevine plant had been reproduced, and everyone could pick it up from her room later.

What they didn't know was that Lilian had reproduced the plant a year ago, but since nobody asked about it, she didn't bother to bring up the topic and continued being in her own world.

Anda was very satisfied with the meeting this time because every suggested idea that was approved in the last meeting had been achieved. Well...ahem... except for hers. It might take a few months before she finishes creating the product.

She would ensure that they would obtain complete victory the next time she initiated a Night Battle Campaign! She would postpone it as long as possible unless she were completely convinced they would win. Every drop of seed would be drained! Anda's determination burned brightly as she silently vowed to make the next campaign an unforgettable triumph.

After the meeting ended, Anda and Layla visited the Multi-Element Sect to inquire about what might have happened to Dorin.

As usual, most disciples of the sect weren't around, as they preferred traveling with their elders, perfecting their martial skills, and

"Really? Then can you please educate me? I will pay for the information."

Sect Mistress Bulan shook her head and replied, "Why are you treating me like a stranger? Our sect and the Leyan Family have a good relationship. It's something you will know eventually. No need for payment. Call me big sister then. That's good enough."

"Yes, Big Sister Bulan. Thank you very much." Anda smiled.

Sect Mistress Bulan's expression suddenly turned serious as she said, "Body possession is quite rare but not unheard of. When you break through to the Nascent Soul realm, your sea of consciousness will merge with your core, becoming a single entity called the Nascent Soul."

Anda and Layla listened with great interest.

"At this point, if your body is destroyed, you can still live with just your Nascent Soul because your consciousness is already there, not in the body anymore."
