Ronan was also taken aback, his magic wand slowly lowered.

He hadn’t expected the person coming out of the house to be Fa Ao; Fa Ao clearly hadn’t expected to see the two of them upon stepping out either, his face full of surprise.

“Great, it’s Lord Fa Ao!”

Reiny’s voice could not suppress the excitement and relief, and he quickly ran towards Fa Ao, putting down his curved blade.

Ronan’s heart also relaxed slightly.

Although he found Fa Ao problematic and neither liked nor trusted him, in this strange territory under the dominion of the Black Robe of the Silent Forest, seeing “one of their own”—especially a “leader” from their side with the greatest strength—was nonetheless reassuring.

Reiny sprinted towards Fa Ao like a lost outsider who had finally found his “organization.”

Ronan followed behind Reiny, looking upwards at the crow perched above on the poplar tree, only to find that it had stopped preening its feathers and was instead staring coldly at everything below.

The unease intensified.

Ronan frowned, considering whether to share his feelings with Fa Ao.

He glanced subconsciously at Fa Ao, only to see him watching them with a quietly unsettling smile, his lips slightly moving.

The rushing Reiny…

The eerily smiling Fa Ao…

These two images kept alternating in Ronan’s mind, a strong sense of crisis growing wildly in him like vines.

“Stop!

Rei…”

Unable to hold back any longer, Ronan shouted out.

At the same time, a low spell syllable also emerged from Fa Ao’s mouth.

“Pop—”

Like a bubble rising from underwater and suddenly bursting.

Along with this sound was a slight thud.

“Boom—”

Reiny, who was running ahead of Ronan, was struck by an inexplicable mighty force, exploding without any warning…

“Bang!”

Ronan remained frozen in place with his shouting expression, eyes wide open, as a damp, sickly-sweet hot wind battered his face, and warm liquid slowly slid down his cheeks…

“Drip—drip—”

Fa Ao walked towards him step by step down the wooden steps in front of the small white house, smiling gently, elegant as ever.

The shock and astonishment in Ronan’s eyes gradually receded, and his face then only showed numbness and calm.

“Why?”

Ronan looked at Fa Ao in front of him, gently wiping the blood off his face with the back of his hand.

“He should…

have done nothing wrong.”

Ronan spoke softly, recalling that he hadn’t even had the chance to tell Reiny his name.

This average-strength fool, who still thought of competing for a God Burning Potion for his friend…

how could he…

just die like that?

“No.”

Fa Ao shook his head, “But his survival was really a surprise to me…

After all, I arranged for you the most dangerous path.

Oh, actually, the quota of God Burning Potions the academy could provide to you wandering wizards this time wasn’t much, and as the leader of this operation, I have a responsibility to control the number of those who survive…

Do you understand what I mean?”

Fa Ao’s gaze was filled with hypocritical sincerity, as if eliminating Reiny was, indeed, the right thing to do.

Ronan remained silent.

After several breaths, he spoke again: “Then why not kill me too?”

Fa Ao suddenly laughed, turning towards someone behind him while still laughing.

“There’s definitely a better and more thrilling arrangement for you.”

In the midst of speaking, another person walked out of the pretty white house.

Dressed in the academy’s standard magic robe, with a cold expression…

it was Linus.

Ronan immediately understood.

“So, I am still going to die, right?”

Ronan looked seriously at Fa Ao.

Fa Ao smiled broadly, said nothing, but naturally draped his arm around Linus’s shoulder who had walked up to his side.

Ronan lowered his head, as though pondering.

Fa Ao watched him interestedly, seeming to anticipate his next reaction.

Seconds later, Ronan raised his head again, this time looking at Linus.

“Linus, we actually didn’t have any issues, did we?”

Ronan’s tone was earnest, “Counting it up, I even saved you once.”

Linus looked at Ronan expressionlessly, sneering disdainfully when he heard the latter part.

However, Ronan didn’t give up, continuing,: “We were partners before, and if I have ever unwittingly offended you, I apologize.

I can also give up the rewards for this mission.

The God Burning Potion is yours, Linus, you need it too, right?

I just want to survive… freёwebnoѵel.com

let me live…”

Ronan’s words were incredibly sincere, almost pleading, like he was begging for some kind of charity.

However, what he got in return was only Fa Ao’s increasingly amused smile and Linus’s increasingly cold and scornful gaze.

Seeing that he could not sway them, Ronan, who began to show desperation and despair, seemed to finally make up his mind.

Ronan clenched his teeth, gently removing a layer of “disguise” from himself.

“Eh?”

As the spiritual power fluctuations, exclusive to a Level 9 Apprentice and normally hidden under a Level 7 Apprentice, emanated out, Fa Ao couldn’t help but let out a light “Eh.”

Linus’s face also showed a bit of shock and emotion.

“Linus!”

Ronan took a deep breath, looking directly into Linus’s eyes, “Don’t you want to know how I advanced to Level 9 Apprentice so quickly?

Why could I cast a spell with strength comparable to Advanced Zero Rank back when I was an Intermediate Apprentice?

Don’t you want to know?”

Ronan’s voice rose amid the quiet meadow, Fa Ao’s smile gradually faded, and Linus’s gaze showed a noticeable shift.
