Chapter 820: Chapter 315 Frequent Fires in the Magic Department_3

Austin:

Next time something like this happens, please talk to him alone. Don’t do it inside a soundproof barrier. Megan can hear.

There was no sound outside, and Megan seemed to have heard nothing.

Wayne gave an encouraging look, "For Aunt Mei, you will surely investigate this thoroughly, won’t you?"

Speaking of the fallen Giant Dragon, Wayne first thought of Dragonheart Island. The Sun Goddess’s Knight Order had invaded the Dragon Kingdom and had some heartfelt talks with the Giant Dragon.

The Giant Dragon fell, its heart dropping onto Dragonheart Island. The crumbling Divine Nation fragmented and slowly dissipated in The Void.

Because it’s close by, a part of the Grey Space overlaps with Lundan’s space, creating a thick fog that envelops the city every night.

It was logical and flawless, and with no correct answer available, Wayne from the Detective Agency declared the case closed.

He even fabricated reasons for the Laws of Death in the Grey Space.

The Giant Dragon’s vitality was fierce. It did not die immediately after losing its heart and, as its life was about to fade, it willingly approached the Laws of Death hoping to extend its life.

Then it died!

As for how dead it was—whether it was fifty percent or a hundred percent, whether it could be revived—Wayne was not sure. He appointed the Dark Knight to continue the investigation.

Austin, you wouldn’t want your secretary, lover, butler, and privately raised young wife to become the vessel for an Evil Dragon’s reincarnation, would you?

Austin frowned as Wayne’s conjecture did seem somewhat possible. There were quite a few unexplainable coincidences when the Magic Department created Megan.

And there was only one Megan; subsequent plans for Artificial Giant Dragons all failed.

"Times have changed, Megan has become the Dark Knight’s mount, evolved into a Black Dragon, and carries the label of the Dark Goddess..."

"The Giant Dragon was slain by the Sun Goddess’s Knight Order. Even if it had ideas, it wouldn’t dare go against the Dark Goddess..."

Austin cut himself off mid-sentence, intending to comfort Megan outside. As he spoke, he became increasingly nervous.

Just in case, a further investigation was needed.

He thought of another possibility, "The Grey Space relates to the Giant Dragon. Could it affect Hefei and Veronica?"

"Hard to say."

Maybe it affected intelligence!

Wayne internally scoffed. As someone with Dragon Blood, Saina was very intelligent. When he first met Teacher Hefei, she was indeed a strong woman. However, after breathing in too much smog, she gradually became less sharp.

It wasn’t impossible.

If that was indeed the case, they needed to deal with the Dragon Blood in Hefei and Veronica soon, not just lifting the curse but also eliminating the hidden dangers of the smog.

The two garbage bins looked at each other and set a surgery date.

"Will there be any problems?"

"I’ll risk my life to ensure its success!" Wayne gritted his teeth.

Austin nodded and pointing at the vacancy list in the Magic Department, said, "We still need two Deputy Directors. I’ll take one position. Do you have anyone suitable to recommend for the other?"

"All the Legendary Mages I know belong to The Church, not suitable..."

Wayne seriously considered, noticing the strange look in Austin’s eyes, and immediately blurted out, "What, you want me to be the last Deputy Director?"

"There has to be someone to share the pressure!" Austin said through gritted teeth.

Wayne sheepishly smiled and shirked responsibility, "That wouldn’t be good. I’m just a kid with no education, no capability. Rising to a high position at such a young age, what would others think? They’d probably start rumors you’re sleeping with the Queen."

"You have backing!"

That’s right, what need is there for education, just being able to smile is enough.

Wayne thought for a moment. It wouldn’t be bad for him to be a Deputy Director of the Magic Department. He needed to study two significant courses, Hell and The Void. It was too troublesome to always communicate through Austin.

Just in case Austin was out night-running with the Queen and he suddenly showed up, it would be awkward for everyone.

With the position of Deputy Director, he could manage things himself, especially about the frequent warehouse fires that had started long before.

"Okay, we’re family. I’ll help you share the pressure."

Wayne valiantly patted his chest, then changed his tone, "But let me be frank beforehand, you know me, I’m good for nothing, only leaving nothing behind at meals. If there are frequent fires in the Magic Department, don’t blame me for the unsightly mess."

No worries, the Queen used to set fires too, and no one would speak ill of the Queen.

Austin sighed again, "I still can’t quite understand how our country has turned out like this."

"That’s simple, I know."

Wayne raised his hand, "It all started one night last March, I was in the Detective Agency making a potato dish, when a Magician Girl walked in..."

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Wayne was about to add another three to five thousand words to this scene when the study door was knocked. Megan entered, emotionlessly stating, "Master, you have a call. Your lover is looking for you."

"Be more specific, which one?"

"The High Priest of the Moonlight Church, Philomena Ursula. She needs to discuss an urgent matter with you at the Moonlight Church Stronghold, and hopes you can come quickly."

...

How did a call during the day get through to Lando Manor? Can’t she wait until tonight?

Wayne stroked his chin, then told Austin, "The deputy director needs to negotiate with the High Priest of the Moonlight Church about the division of faith in the Windsor area. Let’s stop here for today. If there’s an emergency, contact Filark; he knows where I am."

Moonlight Church Stronghold.

After the expansion, the scale of the Moonlight Church Stronghold was incomparable to before. Representing the Dark Moon, Waning Moon, New Moon, and Full Moon phases, four lunar shadows hung high in the sky, lighting up the dark night as if it were daylight.
