Extraordinary in Reality Through Magic Games

333: Chapter 326 The spaceship construction is progressing well; Immortal Xu inspects the site.The lady soon received a robe, which Dumbledore had commissioned the Royal Family to deliver.

When gifting it, the staff relayed that since the lady herself possessed no magic, most of the robe’s functions would be unusable, though some small gadgets would still work.

As for what those ”small gadgets” specifically were, the staff stated that Mr. Dumbledore particularly emphasized she should try them out slowly for herself, as a surprise.

On the Blue Star of today, any event related to the transcendent would never lack popularity; media outlets of any significant scale from every country flocked like cats smelling fish.

The magic competition held on the outskirts of London was no exception.

Not only were there reporters sent by private companies, but those belonging to various governments were there as well. Thus, a photo of a lucky lady with an Owl perched on her head wearing a robe spread across the globe in just a few hours.

The moment they received the news, powerful figures in various countries couldn’t help but feel tempted.

Previous transcendent items were all in official hands, such as the Ying Country Royal Family, Huaxia, and America.

While private factions had some power of their own, attempting to oppose the state machinery was pure suicide.

Therefore, people in certain gray areas didn’t dare harbor crooked thoughts.

But this time was different.

The lady’s personal information was placed on some people’s desks within an hour.

An ordinary family, an ordinary career, ordinary relatives.

With their power, dealing with her could only be described as ”easy.”

However, these people did not act immediately, instead hesitating in their offices and homes.

Dumbledore hadn’t shown his face since the competition ended, having likely returned to Hogwarts.

The students and professors from the three Magic Schools who came to Blue Star for the competition also entered King’s Cross Station after enjoying themselves in London.

Naturally, they didn’t say they would protect the lady.

Under this premise, it stood to reason that since the transcendent beings had left, now was the best time to strike. If they stole the robe and hid in a remote farm, they might evade the pursuit of the transcendent.

But this plan was simply too dangerous. What if the transcendent had the ability to track the robe?

It didn’t even need to be precise; as long as they identified the general area and Dumbledore threw a boulder like the one outside London, one would be crushed to death even if they dug a hole to hide.

So they held back for now and sent people to contact the lady, hoping to purchase the robe through a legitimate transaction.

The price offered was very sincere, enough for the lady’s entire family to immediately live a luxurious life, and as long as they didn’t gamble, they would be worry-free for the rest of their lives.

However, the lady refused, saying she wanted to keep the robe for her recently born granddaughter as a birthday gift.

Repeated negotiations were always met with rejection, and some people’s patience ran out.

They felt that offering to buy it was already very gentle of them. How dare you refuse? Are you looking for death?

Some might think they were foolish.

After all, Huaxia, Ying Country, and America hadn’t made a single move. Who did you think you were to try and seize it by force?

But upon careful analysis, it wasn’t hard to understand.

Habit is a terrifying thing.

When a person becomes accustomed to certain behaviors and maintains them long-term, it creates an illusion—that this is just how The World is.

Like someone caught without a helmet who breaks out into a conflict with the police on the street.

An ordinary person would certainly be dumbfounded: Are you crazy?

It’s a matter of a few dozen yuan; why insist on making a scene that lands you in detention for days or even gets you sentenced?

Yet for the person involved, in her mind, no one usually contradicts her; her relatives, lover, and children all obey her.

This leads her to believe that in her world, obeying her is the norm, the truth, and how things should be, regardless of who it is.

Well, then comes the much-anticipated ”regret chair” segment.

The power of those in the gray areas was the same.

Someone couldn’t help but use violence and sent people to steal the lady’s robe that night.

Fortunately, they still had a trace of awe for the transcendent and didn’t dare hurt anyone.
