Chapter 147
===================
Until Lian Yun came to their yard.
"I don't know where your medicine comes from, but...it's like a miracle."
He thought he was in a desperate situation, but he didn't expect that as Hera took the medicine, she actually began to feel better.
Tormented by worry and fear day and night, he suffered no less than Hera lying in bed.
He never wanted to experience that memory again.
"...I am willing to bear all punishments as long as Hera can become a resident of the town." Iko said word by word.
"Is it because there's always medicine here?"
Ico shook his head. "Your medicine has made up for the deficiencies in Hera's body and replaced those energies... Hera hasn't noticed it yet, but her abilities are not as good as before."
And he was happy because it meant that the energy was slowly leaving her body.
One day, she will become a normal magician, and the magical energy she releases will come entirely from herself.
"We can't go back to the main city anymore."
After Hera was healed, or rather, as early as when he returned from the orc tribe, he began to hesitate about his choice.
While he was willing to see Hera integrate into this place, he was also worried that those people would threaten Hera's life because he did not deliver the information in time.
The moment Hera fell, he panicked and thought it was their warning.
Until Lian Yun saved Hera's life.
Yi Ke calmly realized that the result was simply that their lives were transferred from one party to the other.
Still fragile, still pathetic.
But this is the only way out for Iko and Hera, the best option they can find.
"She likes her life here, even happier than in the main city." Yi Ke closed her eyes slightly, "That's enough."
To be fair, this place is much better than the main city.
"I know." Lian Yun nodded.
Hera has now become accustomed to life here, and this place is more suitable for her future life than anywhere else.
"I promise."
"If you wish, you and Hera can both become residents."
Yi Ke was stunned.
He stammered, "I don't understand. I've done so many wrong things..."
"It's not a wrong thing, I just sold my life to the wrong person."
Lian Yun didn't explain. She took out something out of thin air and handed it to him.
"Your life is in my hands now. I'll spare your life, okay?"
Yi Ke looked at the blue gem in her hand, opened his mouth, but didn't ask any questions.
He raised his head and looked at Lian Yun.
"Take it and follow me later."
Yi Ke took the gem and put it solemnly in his arms.
He didn't ask any more questions. In fact, he would have taken it without hesitation even if it was something that could explode at any time.
At noon, the sun rose high in the sky. Lian Yun drank the last sip of water in the cup and stared at the wall in front of him.
Accompanied by a burst of golden light, a wooden door appeared.
Lian Yun stood up, and the two people beside her also stood up quickly and followed her to the wooden door.
“…”
"good."
The man nodded nervously, his palms sweaty, and he wiped his hands with the cloth on the door handle.
He stared at the metal door, trying to take deep breaths to regulate his heartbeat until it slowly calmed down.
Finally, he asked the usual question: "Guest, are you here yet?"
“…”
"Um."
After getting the response, he suddenly became nervous again, as if the adjustments he had just made were in vain.
The man's hand fell on the door handle, squeezed it, and then let go.
He gritted his teeth and walked in anyway.
He looked up and saw that there were three people this time.
He was neatly dressed in a cloak, looking like a member of a mysterious organization.
However, the Sun and Moon Sect they belong to is indeed famous.
This week in particular, it caused a huge storm in the main city.
"Guest, guest." He was startled by his own stumbling as soon as he opened his mouth.
Even after practicing so many times, I still stutter.
However, the girl on the sofa and the two people behind her didn't seem to notice his excessive nervousness and didn't even turn their heads.
"Has the person from next door, No. 64, arrived yet?"
The girl on the sofa asked.
The man quickly responded, "He's here. He's been here a long time. He said to tell him when you get here."
"Go and get him now."
"Ah?" The man was stunned, then nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay!"
He left the room and just closed the door when the person behind him patted him on the shoulder.
The man turned around and looked at the group of people in white and black robes in front of him, and he couldn't wipe the cold sweat off his forehead.
The men in black robes and those in white stood on opposite sides clearly separated, without communicating with each other until the man came out, then they each sent out a prominent figure to step forward.
"How about it?"
The man bent over, grinning stiffly: "The guest only said that he wanted to see Master Mogo."
"She really showed up?"
"How is that possible? We've been guarding here the entire time and haven't sensed any magical fluctuations..."
"...This must be the Great Magician, right!?"
The group of people in white robes seemed to be in an uproar, because they started talking about what the man said.
There was genuine surprise and confusion in their eyes.
The black-robed leader glanced at those in white clothes and sneered.
"What's the point of your association? You don't even know when a great magician appears out there."
The leading white-robed man glanced at the speaker with a sinister look: "Since you are from our Magicians Association, what are you still doing here?"
"Oh? You're trying to win them over already? Judging from the recent situation in the city, I'm afraid they don't think highly of your association, right?"
The black-robed man showed his fangs in a grin: "The Sun-Moon Divine Sect might become the fourth force."
"What do you think?"
The man in white robe was about to speak again when he heard the metal door next door creak open.
Mogo walked out with his long legs, accompanied by his female companion who had not changed for three weeks. She took Mogo's arm and blew a kiss to everyone who was looking at her.
Many people quickly looked away.
However, the robed men leading the two groups fixed their gazes on the arrogant Mogo.
"Master Mogo, we agreed on this, right?"
Mogo glanced at them miserably, frowning impatiently: "Nonsense."
"Get out of the way."
The man in black robe and the man in white robe looked at each other.
Although they all came with orders, their level was far from enough to block Mogo's way.
They silently made way, but they didn't forget to stare at Mogo, repeating in a way that sounded like a reminder or a warning: "Master Mogo, don't forget our agreement. I don't think you want the entire Hewlett family to be unhappy with us, do you?"
Mogo quickened his pace and went around them.
Right before the door opened, they were still chattering, "Just a cup of tea, Master Mogo. Tell the 'Cult' inside, it's just a cup of tea."
The door was slammed shut again, completely isolating their voices.
The two leaders waved their hands, and someone immediately brought two chairs. They stared at the door, leaning back in their chairs, with smiles that showed they were planning a strategy.
Religion?
Only a ghost would admit it.
If the task from above was not to "invite" a living person, why would they be so polite?
"Mogo."
"Lianyun! It's really you."
As soon as Mogo entered the room, he looked around nervously.
"Don't worry, there's no magic here." Lian Yun explained quickly, "We checked."
Alicia, who was standing by, could no longer hold back and took two steps forward, tightly holding Lian Yun's hand. The concern in her eyes was almost overflowing: "Sir, my daughter? Have you found her? How is she?"
"Everything is fine." Lian Yun responded to him seriously, "She and Bernie are with us, and Lina often goes to play with them."
Alicia covered her mouth and collapsed on the sofa as if all the strength had been lost, unable to hold back her tears any longer.
"I really found it..."
Mogo glanced at his cousin, and while he was happy for her, he didn't forget to urge Lian Yun: "You guys should leave quickly."
"The Magicians' Association and the nobles are all waiting for you outside."
Mogo spoke faster: "I told them that you have to wait a while before leaving each time, so they haven't forced their way in yet."
"If they really want to arrest you..."
Lian Yun looked at the metal door: "I know."
The intense malice and hostility were almost turning into a physical entity.
Isn't danger waiting for her here?
But the door on the wall did not appear.
Mogo was stunned, in disbelief: "You, you can't leave now?"
Lian Yun spread his hands and said, "You have guessed my biggest secret."
"Are you kidding me?" Mogo was really panicking now. He rubbed his hair and looked at the two people behind her: "... Just these two people! You only brought two people with you? How can we win?!"
"What else are you going to do?" Lian Yun asked, "If I take Alicia away, how are you going to cope alone?"
Mogo paused and took a long breath. "No need to deal with it. The Hewlett family will handle it for me."
"Let the Sun Moon Cult members escape? Do you think they'll want to deal with the issue first or you first?"
How could Mogo not think of it?
He frowned, "Anyway, I'm the only heir. They don't dare to do anything to me. The worst that can happen is they'll just confine me to my room and I won't be able to leave the house for ten days or half a month..."
"Then how can you help me?" Lian Yun suddenly said.
Mogo paused and looked at the girl in front of him.
"You... can trust me?"
The girl raised her hand and took off her cloak hood without saying a word.
The girl's face was revealed to him for the first time, with black hair and black eyes, and a smile hidden in her almond-shaped eyes.
Young but mature.
There is nothing I can do.
But it seemed like everything was under her control.
Lana wanted to stop Lian Yun's hand but ultimately failed to do so.
The adults did not give up the Mogo line.
"What do you think?"
Mogo shook his head slightly and laughed: "...Lianyun, you are really brave."
He quickly calmed down and met Lian Yun's inviting gaze: "But can you ensure that you won't be caught? Even if they appear polite later, they will definitely not let you go easily again."
Lian Yun curled the corners of his lips.
"If you are willing to trust me... I will try and lead you out."
Another man behind her suddenly spoke up.
Lian Yun turned around and looked at Yi Ke with interest.

Lian Yun: Make a choice? No.
She wants it all.
