Wizard: Adventures in Two Worlds-Chapter 609 - 26: The Search

Isaiah changed into a brand-new wizard robe, occasionally tightening and loosening her grip on the magic wand, clearly showing signs of restless anxiety.

"No need to be nervous."

Beside her was a woman around forty, named Monica, an official apprentice of the academy.

Seeing Isaiah’s changing complexion, Monica comforted softly:

"Not all wizards are cold and heartless, especially young wizards. As long as they don’t practice certain special magic doors, their emotions are quite similar to ours."

"Wizard Lynn is not yet seventeen. He went through the apprenticeship with you and will not forget you."

"Yes." Isaiah forced a smile:

"Since he became an official wizard, my potion supply has eased considerably. I believe I will become an advanced wizard apprentice in a few years."

"That’s right." Monica nodded, her voice tinged with envy:

"You’re very lucky!"

"Although you haven’t yet passed the re-examination of the academy, many apprentices are eager to establish a good relationship with you because you are Wizard Lynn’s closest friend. And Wizard Lynn is among the most promising wizards."

Even,

In many people’s speculation, Lynn is likely to become a Second Ring Wizard in the future.

As for Isaiah, who is on good terms with him, as long as she can get his sponsorship, she is sure to advance as a wizard.

Monica once took care of Isaiah during their time at the academy, but now she hopes to gain Isaiah’s friendship.

The change in status is so abrupt.

"He’s here!"

Isaiah’s body tightened, she jogged to greet the approaching figure in the distance, respectfully saluting:

"Wizard Lynn."

"Lord Lynn." Monica followed closely behind.

"Isaiah, my friend, no need to be so distant, you can just call me Lynn like before." Lynn waved his hand and said:

"Follow me."

"Yes."

Isaiah remained respectful, not relaxing her tense body due to Lynn’s friendly demeanor.

This was Monica’s teaching.

’After becoming a wizard, it is not like before, no matter how good your relationship was, you must maintain a certain level of respect.’

Monica’s voice was full of emotion:

’I once saw something similar; a group of close friends, one of whom luckily became a wizard, but the others maintained the same attitude in front of him. They thought it would bring them closer, but they didn’t realize they annoyed that wizard, and after that, one by one they met with misfortune.’

’Wizards are different from us. Even if you don’t respect the person, you must respect the power they represent.’

Isaiah agreed deeply.

She followed Lynn into the room, and Monica wisely did not follow, staying at the door to keep watch.

"You should have stayed at the academy to prepare for the re-exam." Gesturing for her to sit, Lynn asked:

"Why did you come here?"

"I wanted to wait for the re-exam, but the academy summoned me, and I just happened to be on the list," Isaiah cautiously said:

"Is there a problem?"

"..." Lynn pondered:

"It’s too dangerous for you to come here."

"I’ve heard about it." Isaiah nodded:

"Many people died during the demon eradication of the abyss, so the academy is conducting a second recruitment."

"That’s not it." Lynn shook his head:

"I have an enemy in the academy. He doesn’t dare to attack me, but he might target the people around me."

"Like you!"

"Ah!" Isaiah’s face turned pale, her eyes flickered, she said:

"I heard on the way here that two of your wizard apprentices encountered danger, yet you made no move."

"Hmm..." Lynn lightly tapped the table:

"I’m not familiar with those two, I don’t even know their names, it’s clear someone is trying to make me leave the protective range of the Wizard Tower."

As for the consequences of leaving here, it’s obvious.

"Does anyone really dare to attack a wizard?" Isaiah looked concerned:

"You must be careful."

"I’m fine." Lynn smiled, standing up to stretch his muscles:

"Be it wizard or wizard apprentice, upon careful thought, it’s all just the survival of the fittest, no difference."

"I became a wizard at a young age, many have high hopes for me, but having no background means no one really takes care of you. Even if you die outside, few truly care, at most you become a topic of conversation for people."

After all, he advanced too soon, though catching some people’s attention, it was far from enough to become a confidant.

Moreover.

He wasn’t the type to be subordinate to others.

"Lynn..." Isaiah grew more worried.

"Don’t worry about me." Lynn waved his hand:

"You should be more concerned about yourself. If someone targets me, they’re very likely to make a move on you."

"Don’t stray too far from me for the time being, I’ll arrange a task for you near the Wizard Tower."

"...." Isaiah blushed:

"Okay."

"Additionally." Lynn thought for a moment and said:

"There should be many people trying to associate with you recently. As long as it doesn’t affect your cultivation, you can do as you please, and help me investigate something."

"There is a type of magic creature called Magpie, very keen in smell, some in the Demon Hunting Battle Group specifically rear them..."

He had asked Maki to investigate, and found some things, but relying on others’ power was always inconvenient.

It’s better to handle it personally.

*

Half a month later.

Less than thirty miles from the abyss rift.

Several figures were desperately fleeing, using all sorts of speeding techniques like Flash Body Spell, Gale Technique, Flying Witchcraft.

Run!

Run fast!

The leaves in the dense forest behind them rustled, and occasionally a fire line flashed past.

Every time the fire line appeared, accompanied by a falling figure, who instantly turned into a pile of ashes.

Whether it was iron armor or magic shield, against the mysterious attack, they were completely ineffective.

Not long after.

"Boom!"

A burst of flames descended from the sky, enveloping one of the fleeing individuals.

When the flames dissipated, only a charred corpse remained, along with a companion filled with horror.

"Magpie." Lynn’s figure appeared not far, holding a creature resembling a small raccoon.

However, this raccoon had blue fur, and a pair of fluffy wings on its back, looking very cute.

"When not angered, it’s quite adorable."

Even though Lynn’s caressing motion was very gentle, the magpie seemed to be greatly frightened, instinctively tensing its body.

"Unfortunately, it’s not the one I’m looking for."

"Where is the other one?"

This magpie’s aura was very similar to the one at Susan’s disappearance scene, but it was not the same.

It was a pair.

The sole survivor in the scene raised his head trembling:

"I beg you... can you let me go?"

"No." Lynn shook his head:

"Even if it’s not about the magpie, you’ve been secretly hunting academy apprentices, as an academy wizard, I must kill you."

"Don’t think that by staying silent, I won’t find out. You should know very well the strength of a wizard."

"Tell me, and your death will be quicker."

?

The survivor looked utterly hopeless.

......

"Bang!"

A delicate porcelain was smashed into countless pieces.

In the Abyss Cottage, First Ring Middle Stage Wizard Cesar glared angrily, like an enraged lion.

No!

A fire lion!

The erupting flames from his body caused the temperature of the space he was in to soar, turning rocks into rolling lava.

"Charles is truly useless!"

"It’s been so long, yet he claims that Lynn has made no moves, obviously he appeared nearby."

"Grandpa." A young voice sounded:

"Could it be that Charles has betrayed you? After all, for you, devouring Lynn could enhance cultivation and foundation, and for Lynn, you are also a great delicacy?"

?

Cesar looked up, his eyes flickering, after a moment he said:

"Why did Lynn secretly leave the territory of Viper Academy and come near the abyss rift?"

"Not sure." The young man shook his head:

"It seems to be related to the Demon Hunting Battle Group."
