Chapter 185: Chapter 165: Trial

"Father, might our actions this time be too rash..." Inside an ancient wizard castle, Wizard Morgan was lounging comfortably in his seat while playing with two ancient stone beads from the Southern Forest Kingdom.

These were said to be antiques excavated from underground, with a history that could even be traced back to the era of the Wizard Empire.

Although they were neither Witch Tools nor ancient wizard legacies, Wizard Morgan was very fond of these historically significant antiques and had collected a large number of them in his wizard castle.

"Afraid of what," a cold smirk appeared on Wizard Morgan’s face upon hearing his son’s question.

"So what if he is the vice-chancellor of the Greybone Academy? Is he not the same as me, a First-level Wizard of Greybone Academy? Hmm hmm hmm... You should know, at Greybone Academy, once a wizard is promoted to First-level Wizard, they must sign an additional agreement. This is not only to prevent unnecessary exhaustion among Formal Wizards but also to allow Formal Wizards to join hands in protecting their interests..."

As Wizard Morgan said this, a hint of resentment flashed in his eyes.

In his view, these people, having endured so much suffering through layers of exploitation and standing out among many fellow apprentices, finally attained true success and were promoted to Formal Wizards. They rightfully should sit high above the clouds, justifiably enjoying the "offerings" from the apprentices.

That he did not directly attack these weaker apprentices, using them as experimental materials or outright killing them, was an act of mercy in itself.

However, in front of his own flesh and blood, Wizard Morgan did not directly express his true thoughts. Instead, he just smiled ambiguously and downplayed his conflict with Lucien as "a minor friction among Formal Wizards."

"Rest assured, there are quite a few conflicts among Formal Wizards, but everyone is still quite restrained. After all, no one wants to escalate things and create an indestructible enemy. Just like I really don’t like Lucien, but I didn’t lash out at his students or his direct subordinates either."

Wizard Morgan spoke casually, but behind this casualness, there was a display of confidence.

He was certain that Lucien had no way to deal with him and was even planning when to go search for that airship, to take down the soul bead on the airship that could absorb souls at a critical moment.

However, soon, while Wizard Morgan was still leisurely playing with the two stone beads in his hand, he suddenly experienced a moment of heart palpitations.

That was the keen spiritual power of a Formal Wizard sensing a sharp intuition that often meant some unpleasant events were about to occur.

— Pop —

Wizard Morgan shuddered all over, he stood up somewhat frantically, even dropping the two stone beads he was fiddling with to the ground, one of which even got some cracks from being thrown.

"Father?"

"It’s nothing... nothing..." Wizard Morgan stood up somewhat frightened, seeking the source of his fear. However, perhaps due to a long time without confronting an opponent of a Formal Wizard’s caliber, his senses had grown dull, and his perception was blurred.

Suddenly, with two loud booms, two figures burst into the castle, one of them, a burly wizard, even smashed a big hole in the wall of the castle.

Wizard Morgan’s heart skipped a beat, for he was shocked to realize that the wizard formations set up in his castle had not been activated when these intruders came in.

However, when he saw clearly who the intruders were, he heaved a slight sigh of relief.

Both were seasoned Formal Wizards, one of whom he had dealt with a bit and had a slight acquaintance with.

Although he did not know why these two Formal Wizards had barged into his residence, Wizard Morgan thought at least they shouldn’t have much to do with Lucien.

"You two..." Despite feeling somewhat dissatisfied about the way these two wizards had rudely barged into his room, he still managed to squeeze out a smile, intending to use the methods he had previously employed in dealing with other Formal Wizards to defuse the situation.

"Perhaps... they could even agree with me on how to handle Lucien’s matter, considering that despicable guy has taken over several wizards’ properties to train apprentices..." Wizard Morgan thought, fostering some hope.

Yet before he could finish speaking, the two Formal Wizards directly interrupted him, "Morgan, surrender yourself, we are here on behalf of the committee to arrest you."

"The committee? Arrest?" Wizard Morgan was stunned, but then a flush of anger spread across his face. He shook his fist, his eyes filled with fury, "I am also a member of the academy’s committee, first, I don’t acknowledge any meeting I didn’t attend; second, I, Frank Morgan, am a member of the academy, I have contributed to the academy, I..."

But the two Formal Wizards were no longer interested in wasting words with Wizard Morgan and started to forcibly arrest him using witchcraft.

"Hmph, idiots." Inside the headmaster’s office, Lucien, leveraging control of the central control of Greybone Academy’s defensive wizard formation, also witnessed everything.
