Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes-Chapter 728 - 255 Free Will

"The core mission of the Starfire Organization? Conveyed to you through the Mechanical Network Headband by Ray?"

Anvis looked at Matt Alisa and others as if hearing about it for the first time.

"Yes, you should be aware of the capabilities of the Mechanical Network. Lord Ray had delivered a speech through it a few days ago, and these are the contents of that speech..."

Alisa brushed her golden-red hair that fell to her ears and briefly explained it to Anvis and Fiona.

"To overthrow all the nobles oppressing the public, people are born equal and free, all rights belong to the vast civilian Professionals..."

Ignoring the cautious gazes of the other nameless Resistance Army extras, Anvis thought of many things after hearing Alisa’s succinct introduction of the speech.

Feeling a profound familiarity with the ideas revealed in this speech, Anvis felt as if he had heard them in another world.

Being someone with memories from two lifetimes, he knew a great deal about the Starfire Organization.

The Starfire Organization was essentially a gathering of idealists and ambitious individuals.

In his past life, as well as at the beginning of this life, the initial goal of the Starfire Organization was actually to overthrow the old nobility’s rule; the concept of equality for everyone was still far off.

The leader of the Starfire Organization, Ray himself, also targeted the entire noble class for revenge due to his experiences of being bullied and oppressed by nobles during his weaker days.

However, the situation has changed now.

A speech through the Mechanical Network directly elevated the goals of the entire Starfire Organization; Anvis did not think this change was a sudden enlightenment by Ray.

The influence of the Grey Mist on these Starfire Resistance Army members is undeniable, and he knew well that the Grey Mist was heavily invested in both the Mechanical Network and the Starfire Organization.

In other words, this transformation was definitely related to the Grey Mist.

In fact, because the Grey Mist chose the Mechanical Network as a base to manipulate the fate of the Continent and break through as a Ninth Rank Prophet initially.

Now, at a critical moment when the execution fell short, the fate of the Mechanical Network has tangled up with the Grey Mist.

In the short term, at least until the Stargazers are restored, he cannot switch to another method to break through as a Ninth Rank Prophet and can only begin through the Mechanical Network.

Thus, these ideologies must be somehow linked to the Grey Mist, and might even entirely be a scheme by the Grey Mist, while somehow convincing Ray to endorse this personally.

Even though in the world of high magic, the will of many Low Rank Professionals makes hardly any impact on the upper level. But if the strongest can benefit from it, then promoting this ideology from the top down...

"...During the time I acted with the Starfire Organization, I saw many things normally hidden in darkness. Some nobles reveal a side of evil towards the weak that is even more cruel than Magic Beasts.

Therefore, I’m sorry, Anvis. As a knight, in pursuit of the justice in my heart, I cannot stand by and watch these events continue without doing anything."

Alisa, not knowing what Anvis was thinking and feeling slightly guilty for receiving help from Anvis but ultimately choosing to join the Starfire Organization and stand on the opposite side of Anvis, explained the reason for joining Starfire to him.

"By the way... I should return this to you."

After hesitating for a while, Alisa finally took off the Secret Technique Ring she had always worn as an admission token to the ’Hidden Knowledge Association’ and handed it back to Anvis.

Indeed, after joining the Starfire Organization, the ’Hidden Knowledge Association’s information and trading channels still helped her a lot.

Although it might not seem to attract much attention, Anvis never relaxed the development of the ’Hidden Knowledge Association’ at Pamir Academy; its scale has expanded a lot compared to when Alisa first joined.

"Don’t worry about it, Alisa. Keep it, your identity isn’t a problem for me."

Looking into Alisa’s bright golden-red eyes, amid the unexpected look of the Knight Girl, Anvis shook his head.

"I can guess some of the reasons you chose to join ’Starfire.’ I’ve already said it, we don’t have to become enemies; at least we are far from that stage right now.

"The fact that Starfire has conflicts with the Nobility does not mean I have personal conflicts with you."

As an Eighth Rank Prophet, Anvis formed the ’Secret Knowledge Association,’ which is different from other secret associations at the academy.

When recruiting members, besides some special talents, he does not care about their current Identity backgrounds or innate abilities, but only cares about their future destiny.

They do not necessarily have to be very strong, only need to have their own uniqueness, such as playing a main role or an important supporting role in a major future event.

Currently, several senior students who have joined the Secret Knowledge Association have graduated and have been recruited by the Royal Family and Nobles across the Empire as high-level talents.

The information and resources of these people are exchanged within the Secret Knowledge Association, achieving a mutually beneficial effect. Perhaps some pieces of information could be crucially important to someone.

For Anvis, the Knight Girl Alisa perfectly meets this criterion. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

In his observations, she carries a Bloodline suspected to be from the former Marquis Alk, destined to revitalize her family and climb to a high position in the Starfire Organization.

She is both a Bloodline Noble and has joined the Starfire Resistance Army.

In other words, she is one of us.

"I’m sorry, I was a bit too reactive just now. Anvis, do you have any thoughts about joining us?"

Watching the interaction between Anvis and Alisa, Landon, while feeling somewhat embarrassed, sincerely extended an invitation.

"Inviting me to join?"

Upon hearing Landon’s sudden invitation, Anvis was rendered speechless.

In terms of status, you in Starfire don’t even have a higher Level than my subordinates.

"Thank you for your invitation. Although I hold no animosity towards the Starfire Organization, I am not yet ready to join..."

However, as he spoke, Anvis suddenly paused.

News from his avatar in the Mechanical Network Headband of Floating City was that the pursued Floating City had ’escaped’ into the Dream Battlefield he had previously prepared for the incoming Ninth Rank enemies.

Next, he might need to devote his full effort, focusing his main Will there to prepare some surprises for the enthusiastic guests.

"I’m sorry, I might need to rest for a while. Take these as a reward for helping us out of danger," he said.

Anvis casually took out a Space Ring and handed it to Landon, unconcerned about the others, found a sofa in the corner of the stronghold to recline on slightly, and then closed his eyes as if entering a state of meditation.

"This..."

Checking the ring, Landon was instantly stunned by the plethora of rare Cultivation Resources inside.

At the same time, the familiar booming voice of the Dark Crow resounded in his heart.

"Those two are no ordinary folks, young Landon! The aura hidden within that girl gives even me a faint sense of danger.

And though that boy doesn’t seem threatening, he has a special illusory feel, like some kind of Illusion exists. If possible, it would be best to make them your companions!

Aren’t you quite skilled at recognizing younger sisters? Now go quickly and recognize another one! Better yet, recognize a younger or older brother too!"

"I understand, Dark Crow..."

Listening to Dark Crow’s clearly mischievous tone, Landon’s face turned bitter.

"Let’s go back to our room for now and let them rest here a bit."
