Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“rilung’s situation. I do know a little about it.”
The black-robed old man’s voice was hoarse and let out a hollow laugh. The sound of it was sharp to the ears.
“rilung belongs to the Abyss Fort!” the old man lowered his head and said in a calm voice. His sharp gaze scanned Count Selin’s face and gave him a aningful smile.
“the Abyss Fort?”
Count Selin’s face turned instantly pale. His whole body began to shiver uncontrollably. Although he had tried to hide it as best as he could, rlin caught that sharply.
“How can he belong to the Abyss Fort?”
Count Selin’s eyebrows were furrowed and his face was slightly pumped red.
rlin looked at the muscular Cook who seed confused as well. The latter obviously did not know what was the Abyss Fort which the old man spoke about was referring to.
“Wizard Hill, can you tell us about the Abyss Fort in detail?” rlin asked suddenly. From Count Selin’s reaction, he faintly realized that there must be sothing with the Abyss Fort or the usually calm Count Selin would not be so fretted.
The black-robed old man looked at rlin. His face that seed like an old tree’s skin showed a playful smile as spoke in a hoarse voice, “The Abyss Fort is a strong Spell Caster organization. I believe Sir Count has heard about it before.”
After a pause, the old man set his gaze tightly on rlin and continued, “Wizard rlin, it seems you’re the sa as an old man like . We’re both free wizards! Hehe. O’ free wizards. Free and without worries. It sounds free, but is it so? We’re just a bunch of roaming wizards! In the Kingdom of Blackmoon, other than roaming wizards, there are so strong Spell Caster organizations. These organizations provide spells, so knowledge, and experience of strong wizards regarding Spell Models, Potions class, Alchemy class, and more. In short, joining a Spell Caster organization provides the opportunity to beco a strong Spell Caster. It’s totally different from us, the roaming wizards.”
rlin listened attentively. He had beco a Spell Caster according to old man Etha’s Spell Manual. He was not clear about the situation of Spell Casters in the Kingdom of Blackmoon.
Now that he heard about the Spell Caster organization from the old man, rlin slowly began to grasp the overall organization of Spell Casters in the Kingdom of Blackmoon.
The most spread out, or the largest in number, was these free wizards. They were not bound to any force and were free. However, on the other hand, they were mostly Entrance-level Spell Casters and were weak in strength because they did not possess a new Spell Model. Without strong Spell Caster teaching knowledge and experience about Spell Model, many free wizards could not progress any further. They could only forever be Entrance-level Spell Casters.
Therefore, free wizards were also known as roaming wizard. They were the most pitiable group of people amongst the Spell Casters.
The second was Spell Caster organizations. These Spell Caster organizations gathered all sort of strong Spell Casters and their influence was the greatest amongst others. They had many resources and could provide lessons for Spell Casters.
Thus, the Spell Caster organizations basically had the largest force. So large Spell Caster organization even had the force greater than the whole kingdom.
The third was the Spell Casters in the army. These Spell Casters were mostly roaming wizards. To attain so Spell Models or potions or casting tools, they had no choice but to join the army. After they served the army for a while, they could receive all sort of rewards.
There were so Spell Casters staying in Ravens Castle. In fact, they were roaming wizards who have joined the army.
“In this case, rilung belongs to the Abyss Fort?”
rlin frowned. He raised his head and took a glance at Count Selin to find the latter was pale. His darting eyes showed restlessness in his heart.
The black-robed old man nodded. With his hoarse voice, he continued, “That’s right. rilung belongs to the Abyss Fort indeed! Hehe. He’s a lucky one. It isn’t easy to join a Spell Caster organization even if the Abyss Fort is only a relatively small Spell Caster organization. If he has no letter from the Abyss Fort or isn’t valued by the core mbers of the Abyss Fort, he has no chance of joining the Abyss Fort.”
The old man did not hide his envy toward rilung in his words. Maybe the old man wanted to join a Spell Caster organization all this while but he was unsuccessful. That was all.
“Wizard Hill, if we kill rilung, will Abyss Fort support him in attacking us?” Count Selin who had been silent all this while finally asked.
This was the most important question. Would Abyss Fort attack them? This was related to Count Selin’s attitude toward rilung after this. It was extrely crucial.
The black-robed old man nodded and said in a serious tone, “rilung is only the son of a normal baron. What sort of letter does he have to join the Abyss Fort? Thus, he must be valued by the core mbers of the Abyss Fort. That’s why he can join them. If we kill rilung on purpose, we can’t be sure that we won’t anger the core mbers in the Abyss Fort.”
Suddenly, rlin raised his head and a smile escaped him. If the strong Spell Caster supporting rilung would really attack them, then would Wizard Hill still accept Count Selin’s invitation?
Therefore, the black-robed old man surely knew so hidden facts.
After seeing rlin’s smile, the old man also knew that rlin had guessed it. He no longer hesitated and said directly, “Although the Abyss Fort is scary, Sir Count, the Abyss Fort is truly too far away from Prakash City. This place is not under the Abyss Fort’s influence. Instead, it’s under the force of the Dark Magic Region!”
“If a strong Spell Caster from Abyss Fort dares to attack Prakash City, that will bring about a detrintal consequence. It can possibly cause a war between the Dark Magic Region and the Abyss Fort!”
“A war between Spell Caster organizations, huh. It’s an outco that no one can bear to have! Thus, Sir Count, even if killing rilung can cause anger of a certain group of strong Spell Casters from Abyss Fort, you don’t have to worry about the Spell Casters appearing in Prakash City.”
When he ntioned the war between Spell Caster organizations, a hint of fear escaped from the black-robed old man’s face.
“Phew...”
After hearing the old man’s analysis, Count Selin heaved a sigh of relief. His face slowly beca flushed again and he smiled. “That’s right. Even though the Abyss Fort is strong, Prakash City is under the influence of the Dark Magic Region! Even if the Dark Magic Region won’t mind these little things, if strong Spell Casters from the Abyss Fort co here, then the talks will be different.”
Upon thinking about this, a killing aura faintly leaked out of Count Selin’s body.
