There was a rapid knock on the door.

Senior frowned slightly, smiled apologetically at the other two people in the room, stood up and opened the door.

"Is it you?"

Looking at Jeff in front of him, he said in a cold voice: "What's the matter?"

"Something." Jeff was flattering as always, rubbing his hands together and taking out a copper bottle from behind:

"Senior, this is yours..."

"Wizard Angus?"

After seeing clearly who was in the room, Jeff's face showed ecstasy. He trotted past Senior and came to Angus.

"Wizard Angus, do you still remember me? I was an apprentice who entered the academy at the same time as you, but I failed to pass the assessment and stay in the academy. I can't be compared with you."

"My name is Jeff!"

"Jeff?" Angus had a blank expression on his face and nodded slowly: "I remember you."

"Although you don't have much talent, you are very capable. I heard that you are doing a good life after leaving the academy."

With the wizard's powerful mental power, it is impossible for him to forget anyone he has met in life.

Unless one forgets deliberately or is under the influence of witchcraft.

"You're welcome." Jeff bowed and smiled, "Thanks to you, I was able to buy materials needed by the academy wizards and senior wizard apprentices in the market and luckily made some money."

"That's right."

He said:

"I have dealt with that kid Lin En. He will never appear in front of you again."

"..." Angus did not answer, but looked at Senior with disgust in his eyes.

"Senior."

Senior's face changed drastically. He took a step forward and kicked Jeff to the ground, shouting angrily:

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"When did the senior ask you to deal with Lin En? He is just an insignificant little person."

"Yes, yes." Jeff stood up hurriedly, stretched out his hand and slapped his cheek hard, smiling flatteringly:

"I acted on my own initiative. It has nothing to do with the two seniors. Please don't take my words to heart."

While slapping his face, he handed the copper bottle in his hand to Senior, "Senior, it's great that you lent me that thing. This way we can say that it was the Abyss Monster who killed the person, and no one will trace it back to us."

"snort!"

Senior grabbed the copper bottle and glared at him fiercely: "What's wrong with you today? You speak without thinking. Where did your former smartness go?"

Jeff in the past would never be as stupid as he is today, trying to show his affection without knowing the situation clearly.

It was the senior's idea to kill Lin En, but is this something that can be said?

madness!

As for the copper bottle containing the horned demon, it is actually a valuable high-level magical item. Naturally, I can only borrow it and cannot give it to him.

"Yes, yes."

Jeff nodded repeatedly. When he saw Senior nod and check the copper bottle, a strange look appeared in his eyes, and then he suddenly made some finger gestures.

"Bang!"

suddenly.

The cork of the copper bottle popped up, and a thick smoke gushed out, accompanied by the smell of madness, fighting, and chaos.

not good!

Senior's expression suddenly changed.

Angus, who was sitting nearby, reacted faster. He suddenly stepped back, and at the same time, a terrifying mental pressure descended upon him.

Another senior wizard apprentice who was watching was a little slower to react, and retreated hastily a moment later.

Angus's practice was different from that of ordinary wizard apprentices. He was particularly good at creating various illusions, and his mental strength was far beyond his peers. This outburst instantly suppressed the thick smoke in the field, revealing the scene inside.

"roar!"

A scarlet two-horned demon jumped out of the copper bottle and rushed towards Senior, wrapped in flames.

"careful!"

Angus opened his mouth subconsciously, and saw Jeff with a hideous grin on his face, rushing towards him like a madman.

This is……

Puppetry?

As a spiritual master, he understood Jeff's situation at a glance: he was being controlled by a spell.

But the incident happened suddenly, and even he couldn't help Jeff get rid of the witchcraft for a while.

and,

Angus wasn't going to help either.

"boom!"

The violent mental force turned into a giant hammer, combined with the free elemental particles in the void to form a solid entity, and then smashed down fiercely.

Jeff, who was rushing over, felt his eyes go dark, and he could sense nothing else but the huge hammer coming towards him.

"Bang!"

Just one hit.

Jeff's head exploded, and the headless corpse staggered forward a few steps before falling to the ground crookedly.

The other side.

The two-horned demon was wrapped in flames and entangled with Senior like a madman, attacking him with all kinds of means.

Seeing Angus free his hands, the two-horned demon seemed to understand something and suddenly roared towards the sky.

not good!

Angus's face changed, and his body turned into a shadow, retreating violently to the rear. The shadowy figure passed directly over the window sashes and walls, and appeared outside the yard.

rear.

"boom!"

The huge flames enveloped half of the courtyard. The high temperature at the core was high enough to melt the fine iron, and the flames shot straight into the sky.

Needless to say, Senior was dead.

"Senior."

The other apprentice ran even faster, and was relieved after escaping the disaster:

“That was a close call!”

"Lynn!" Angus narrowed his eyes, staring at the flames in the field, took a deep breath and said, "I am going to retreat and announce my breakthrough to the realm of a formal wizard. It will take more than three months."

"Senior." The apprentice was stunned: "Are you planning to take this opportunity to kill Lin En?"

Others may not know, but he knows that Angus has a strange witchcraft that can curse others to death from a distance, but it takes a certain amount of time to prepare.

Obviously.

That should be the case this time.

* * * This day.

Lin En came to the area Natalie was in charge of as usual and handed in the potion that the academy gave him to make.

"Don't leave yet."

Just as he was about to leave, Natalie stopped him:

"Come with me."

"...Yes." Lin En's eyes were filled with doubt, and he followed the other party to a wooden house.

Natalie took out a jade pendant inlaid with gold edges from her body and placed it in his hand with a serious expression.

“Lynn.”

"I have investigated the matter of Kito's disciples. Although the details are unclear, it is likely that he is involved."

"According to my guess, Kito should be treating his disciples as some kind of nourishment for his own advancement, and he increases his own strength by devouring the disciples' talents and cultivation."

"Hmm?" Lin En's expression changed slightly: "Does the school not care about this kind of thing?"

"There aren't too many cases of wizard apprentices dying during their training. Many of them died in unclear circumstances, and the academy turned a blind eye." Natalie shook her head.

"Besides, Kitto is an official wizard. As long as he doesn't go too far, no one will care."

“This thing…”

She pointed at the jade pendant and said:

"It's a magic item I got a few years ago. It can increase the defense against the inner sea of ​​the spirit. If Kito really intends to attack you, it can help you resist."

certainly.

This is just a stopgap measure.

Natalie plans to find an opportunity to arrange for Lynn to be by her side in the future to ensure her safety.

“This…” Lin En looked at the jade pendant in his hand and nodded slowly:

"Thank you very much."

"Don't be polite to me. I owe you. If it weren't for you, I would have died." Natalie shook her head:

"Go back."

"Even if Kito wants to use you for training, he will wait until your skills are raised to the level of a high-level wizard apprentice. There is no rush for now."

No rush? Lin En sighed.

He will not suppress his progress in cultivation and has already begun to move towards becoming a high-level wizard apprentice.

…………

“Lynn.”

The pale-faced middle-aged woman knocked on his door and said expressionlessly, "You don't have to do anything about the things in Weier Town anymore. Next, follow Wizard Kito to learn the inherited witchcraft."

"..."Lin En looked at the other person, his fingers trembled, and he nodded slowly:

"good."

"Pack your things and follow me." The middle-aged woman said:

"You'll have an hour to take care of the chores."

"Yes." Lin En turned around, packed his things, and asked casually, "As far as I know, all of Master Kito's disciples met with disaster. How did you survive?"

"..." The middle-aged woman's eyes narrowed and she stared at him intently: "When I took Wizard Kito as my mentor, he was not yet a wizard."

Huh? Lynn raised her eyebrows.

Could it be that Kitto only started taking disciples to practice his skills after he became a formal wizard?

"Senior."

Lin En turned around and put the package on his back: "The mentor has transformed you into a puppet. Your life and death are not up to you. It all depends on his thoughts. Have you ever thought of resisting?"

“Hehe…” The middle-aged woman lowered her head and chuckled, her laughter was eerie and terrifying: “Lynn.”

"You seem to know something, but those rumors are not necessarily true. My mentor gave me a second life and treated me very well. I will never betray him."

"As for you, don't listen to the instigation of some people. Always believe in your mentor as if you believe in the truth."

Well, the rebellion failed!
