Steadfast Wizard: From Heart-Swapping Rat to Dimensional Demon God

"After hearing what you just said, what are you planning to do?"

The garden of Nornes Mansion.

Prince Norns stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the vibrant flowers vying for attention in the garden, and spoke softly.

Remington stood behind Prince Norns and said respectfully, "I don't intend to do anything. If Your Highness needs me to tell Isaac, I will."

"Heh~ You've changed pretty quickly. No wonder that old man Gaia was willing to send you out. You really don't seem like one of Solomon's people."

Remington didn't speak, but simply kept his head down.

"If you don't want to talk about it, then don't. Let them go have fun." With that, Prince Norns extended his right hand and waved it lightly. Immediately, a black-robed assassin emerged from the shadows and handed a book, a bottle of potion, and a document to Remington.

"These are the Thunder Dragon Forge Technique and the Thunder Dragon Spirit Potion. What you need to do now is become a High Knight as soon as possible, and then take this Pioneer Order and go out and explore."

Upon hearing this, Remington abruptly raised his head, looking excitedly at Prince Norns, his lips trembling, unable to utter a word for a long time.

"Heh~ You're much worse than your brother, with only this much. You're already a member of the Norns family, so this is nothing. You'll have plenty more in the future. Keep working hard."

"It's... Father!"

Prince Norns' lips curled slightly upward as he looked out of the mansion, in the direction of Solomon's territory!

……

"Tsk tsk~ Is this what nobles are like? This is what nobles are like~" Isaac looked at the magic book in his hand and shook his head. This was one of the reasons why he separated from the family early on.

Being an aristocrat is too difficult; all the scheming and calculating is far less enjoyable than research.

Although he was unaware of Remington's swift change of heart, he did not lower his guard against Prince Norns for very simple reasons: first, he was very mysterious; second, he wanted to marry into a powerful border noble family like Solomon, who had an army.

Based on these two points alone, Isaac would absolutely not believe that he had no interest in that position!

In this extraordinary world, without some strength, it's impossible to maintain one's mystique. You don't even need paparazzi; a powerful wizard can see right through you from the comfort of his home using precognitive magic!

They possess considerable power and desire to form a marriage alliance with border nobles...

You're practically an alternate version of Sima Zhao!

Of course, it's also possible that he wanted to work with the emperor to set up a trap and purge the empire from within. Isaac couldn't figure out the specifics of his motives, nor did he want to.

Anyway, he wouldn't stay long. After joining the Flesh and Blood Cult and participating in the Genie's Lamp Trial, he was ready to return to his territory.

Let whoever wants to wade into the muddy waters of the capital city.

but……

Isaac rubbed his chin. What he couldn't quite understand was Princess Philo. Although they both belonged to the Mad Witch Society and had met and traded, to be honest, they weren't really close. That little bit of acquaintance wasn't enough to warrant her enthusiasm.

If Isaac himself were some kind of arcane genius, then we could consider the possibility of it being related to the Bone of the Supreme Being storyline, but unfortunately he isn't.

After thinking for a while, Isaac gave up when he couldn't figure it out. Whatever, he'd deal with whatever came his way. With the infinite magic granted by his flesh and blood dimension, he wasn't too afraid unless a high-ranking knight or a high-ranking wizard personally intervened.

Before long, the pumpkin carriage arrived in front of Solomon's mansion in the capital. The moment the carriage stopped, the mouse jumped off and then sneakily opened the door for Isaac.

Isaac: "..."

Why does flattery sometimes elicit such strong feelings?

Shaking his head, Isaac entered the mansion amidst the welcome of the servants. The mansion was not large; compared to the city estates like the Prince's Mansion, Solomon's place was much smaller, with only seven or eight rooms, two dining rooms (one large and one small), a council chamber, a ballroom, and a living room.

In addition, there are two basements and a cellar, as well as a small training ground the size of a basketball court.

Within the circles of border nobles, the house was considered somewhat shabby.

However, Isaac didn't care about any of that; all he needed was a laboratory.

Unfortunately, this one didn't exist...

You can't conduct magical experiments at will in the capital. There's 24/7 magical surveillance here. Any abnormal magical fluctuations outside of designated areas will trigger an alarm and attract patrolling guards.

So although Isaac settled down, he still couldn't do experiments and could only continue studying theory.

Fortunately, he had just learned a lot of Outer God rituals from Princess Filo for free, so he still had a lot to learn and wouldn't be bored.

And so, while studying the Outer Gods' trading rituals, Isaac lived in Solomon's mansion all day long, never venturing outside.

Firstly, he has no interest in going out, and secondly...

It was also to wait for his second brother, Remington, to come to visit.

According to etiquette, although he has married into the family and moved into the Norns' house, he is still a member of the Solomon family at this stage because the wedding has not yet been officially held. Therefore, he should come to the Solomon's house to finalize the final ceremony arrangements.

Unless, of course, he wants to sever all ties with the Solomon family!

However, Isaac felt that his second brother wouldn't be that stupid. Although that was what their father meant, the eldest brother would still be in charge in the future. And given Caesar's personality, he didn't care whether you married into the family or changed your surname. Even if you changed your surname, you were still brothers.

Why should the former lord's orders bind the current lord?

Therefore, Remington shouldn't let things get so tense now. After all, since Caesar displayed his divine power, his eyes have become much clearer, and he shouldn't be so foolish anymore.

however……

Isaac miscalculated...

He waited for three whole days, but neither Remington nor Norns' men showed up!

Princess Filo visited several times during this period and discussed some contents of the God Research Manual with him. It seems that she has not yet learned the God Alchemy, and there seems to be some problem with that thing.

This was something Isaac didn't know, since he hadn't used that transmutation technique.

"Oh, Second Brother, oh Second Brother~"

On the evening of the third day, looking at the door that remained unopened, Isaac shook his head helplessly. Sure enough, his second brother was still the same second brother, as stupid as ever, and as unable to distinguish between the king and the queen as ever.

Isaac turned and went back to his room to sleep. Tomorrow he would officially head to the Cult of Flesh and Blood, then prepare for the Great Trial of the Lamp, and then go home.

You can't reason with that damned devil, Second Brother... oh wait, I'm not called Second Brother anymore, I should call him Remington Norns now...

I just hope we don't meet on the battlefield again, otherwise, he's not as sentimental as my older brother!

As he thought about it, a murderous glint flashed in Isaac's eyes. His intuition told him that Solomon and Norns would inevitably clash in the future!

It was a rather inexplicable intuition, but that didn't stop him from preparing for it.

It's always better to be prepared.
