Chapter 423: Chapter 422: Protecting the Young Calf
Another week passed, and the Lanque returned to East Blade City.
In front of Rapid Wood Tower, Dorothy left Ivan with a sentence before she disembarked the airship and headed towards the City Lord’s Residence.
“Sorcerer Ivan, you don’t have much ti left to consider, I hope you can make a decision soon.”
“Sorcerer Dorothy, I wish you well without sending you off.”
Their words were not transmitted through a spell, Angus on the deck heard everything crystal clear, and imdiately guessed the implications, looking towards Ivan with so worry.
“The President still hasn’t made contact, we’ll talk about other matters once he does,” Ivan said, his expression unchanged.
...
“Either way, the East Capital Enchantnt Guild will always be your support,” Angus said. Despite his desire to attain the favor of power, he wouldn’t actively cross certain boundaries.
It has to be said that, apart from a few Enchanters, the guild’s internal atmosphere was always well-maintained.
Ivan felt ward by these words.
On the fifth day after returning to the East Capital, Ivan finally t Chairman Hardy Charosi in person, a figure who still emanated an extraordinary presence, like a wise old Sage out of legendary stories.
“Good morning, Chairman Hardy, sorry to disturb you.”
“You’re in such a hurry to see ; could it be that soone bullied you?” Hardy dropped his elegance as soon as he began speaking. “Tell , who was the shaless one? I’ll go block his door and have a word with him.”
“No— No, I have so important results to report.” His words nearly overwheld Ivan.
“Are you sure? Although I told you to focus more on your research last ti, you don’t need to rush so. We sorcerers can’t asure our ti by the standards of ordinary people,” Hardy said with so suspicion.
“Of course.”
“Right, the ti of a genius also can’t be asured by that of a regular sorcerer.”
“You flatter too much, President.”
These words made Ivan sowhat embarrassed, especially because the person before him had a profound and unfathomable mastery over Enchantnt that people could only look up to with respect.
He didn’t dare delay any longer, proceeding to recount the event once more to ensure the President was fully aware of the situation.
Hearing of such significant innovation, Hardy was pleasantly surprised and also developed a keen interest.
He imdiately inquired about the related questions to the Formation: What was the core idea behind creating this Formation? What was the new Formation’s na? Which areas of knowledge did it mainly involve?
——
At that mont, Chairman Hardy looked more like an old Enchantnt Master obsessed with knowledge of Formations.
Ivan didn’t feel that the President was coveting his work.
Through Hotter’s disclosures, he knew more clearly about the President’s status; the President was actually one of the “Great Sages” in the sorcerer world.
Like a great scholar, a Great Sage was also a special position, synonymous with intelligence and wisdom.
Currently, there were only five Great Sages in the entire sorcerer world, among whom two were Level 5 Sorcerers. This ant that only three individuals, including Hardy Charosi, had ascended to the position of Great Sage with the power of a Level 4 Sorcerer.
Sotis, during the supre council’s discussions involving the four great heads, they would invite Chairman Hardy to participate and offer suggestions.
Hotter even ntioned that Chairman Hardy was one of the most likely among all Level 4 Sorcerers to advance to the Level 5 tier, holding an extraordinary position within the sorcerer world.
With such strength, potential, and wisdom, Ivan naturally didn’t need to harbor any doubts.
“Good! I did not expect you to reach this level of understanding in Enchantnt. Among the Enchantnt Masters I’ve encountered, your achievent ranks at the very top, well-deserved of being first or second.”
“Thank you, Mr. President, for your guidance.”
After a session of knowledge exchange, Hadi looked at him with increasingly satisfied eyes.
Ivan himself benefited imnsely. With the President’s casual pointers, many of the issues that puzzled him suddenly beca clear. No wonder the ancients left such a saying, “Listening to a wise man’s words can be more instructive than reading ten years’ worth of books.”
Indeed, that saying was no lie. When he returned to ponder more, the Black Demon Fire Cocoon Array could probably incorporate a few more runes bundles, enhancing its power even further.
Chairman Hadi was, without doubt, one of the people with the highest Enchantnt expertise in the sorcerer world, truly among the very best.
While he was reflecting on this, he heard Chairman Hadi speak with a calm voice, filled with domineering words.
“The guild’s rules allow no rebuttal. An enchanter’s invention belongs to the enchanter personally. You just go back with peace of mind. I’ll handle this matter, and no one will co looking for trouble with you.”
Hearing such protective words, Ivan didn’t know what to say.
However, given the corrupting influence of benefits and his own lesser strength compared to so sorcerers, this was akin to a child wandering through a bustling market with gold in hand. Even with Chairman Hadi’s promise, it’s best to fear the unexpected because, if soone took a desperate risk, his life could be in jeopardy.
It’s not that he didn’t trust Chairman Hadi.
After all, even Level 5 Sorcerers have betrayed the sorcerer world, what other people could not turn traitor? The sorcerer world is not as harmonious as it seems on the surface.
“Mr. President, regarding the power of patronage, I still have so doubts.”
“Speak.”
“If I teach this Formation to others and they use it to help the Alien Race beco official sorcerers to obtain the power of patronage, can I receive a share from it?”
After obtaining the President’s consent, Ivan relayed the suggestions of Hotter.
In his view, the power of patronage was sowhat like the ‘rits’ he understood, which ant Hotter’s reasoning should be correct.
As long as he didn’t lose his share, he didn’t mind sharing the Formation.
“Based on my experience, of course, you can. But think it through,” Hadi understood his intention and didn’t interfere, providing a straightforward affirmative answer.
“I’ve thought it over. After all, it’s just a Formation, and furthermore, it’s only a part of the Formation. There’s plenty of ti ahead. Just as you said before, Mr. President, the accomplishnts of a genius should not be equated with those of ordinary sorcerers; an enchanter of talent has plenty of inventions throughout their life.”
After contemplating for so long and with Chairman Hadi’s clarifications, Ivan finally made up his mind.
“Ha ha ha, ambitious! I look forward to the day that happens,” laughed Chairman Hadi. He didn’t think Ivan’s words were arrogant; on the contrary, he saw them as realistic.
Exiting the seven-story sorcerer tower, Ivan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Chairman Hadi had promised to handle the matter and would coordinate it.
With the President’s involvent, he probably wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.
Before long, a Formation called ‘Black Demon Fire Silk Array’ was disclosed. Of course, it was only exposed within a small circle because ordinary people had no qualifications to access it, which included Dorothy.
Dorothy was disqualified due to her inadequate Enchantnt expertise. After hearing the news, her face undoubtedly turned dark.
She tried seeking the City Lord’s help, only to be scolded by City Lord Filomina for aiming too high.
In fact, the newly disclosed Formation was not simplified at all; instead, it beca even more complex. Dorothy wasn’t qualified for a reason.
This technique was specially taught by Chairman Hadi, taking an extrely simple Formation and making it complex, dramatically elevating the difficulty and preventing many from attempting to ddle.
Ivan extended an invitation to Hotter, but once again, he was rejected.
He claid he couldn’t learn it, nor was he interested in learning it.
Ivan suggested a different approach, letting him cultivate the Alien Race while Ivan assisted in advancing them to sorcerers, which was still rejected. Ivan had no choice but to let it go.
