Chapter 102 - 102: 94 ‘The Reappearance of the Pure
Matthew eyed Bailey, who was speaking to him with a gentle smile, with some disdain.
The fact that everything Bailey said revolved around Radiant Academy was peculiar, as if he was throwing his weight around.
Yet, Matthew kept smiling and nodding on the surface; after all, Bailey in front of him was a real Level 1 Wizard.
It was an honor that Bailey would actually converse with him.
Not all wizards would bother to talk to you with a smile.
Especially considering that he is merely a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice.
In the eyes of a real wizard, a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice is nothing more than a mere ant.
The next moment, the door of the room was pushed open, and a middle-aged man appeared at the door.
This middle-aged man was naturally Milton Cheney himself.
Bloodline Wizards have a kind of magic, not classified as magic, that allows them to change their physiques.
This change is very difficult for a Level 1 Wizard of the Spiritual System to detect without applying spiritual power.
Of course, if they were to stimulate spiritual power and probe it all over, they would certainly notice abnormality.
But at this moment, Cheney is not as before; wizards are not permitted to casually observe each other.
If someone was really foolish and overly curious about Cheney’s true appearance, Cheney wouldn’t mind giving them a proper lesson.
At least, Bailey would not voluntarily use his spiritual power to probe Cheney.
Cheney let his gaze rest on Bailey for a moment, then turned away, signaling Matthew to leave first.
Matthew respectfully nodded as he passed by and left the room.
“Hello, Bailey Densen, I am here to collect the magic stones for Radiant
Academy.”
As Cheney was scrutinizing Bailey, Bailey too was examining Cheney.
He knew that the person before him was indeed the Official Wizard who had killed Albert, but there seemed to be nothing special about him.
“Nicholas, White Raven Society Master.”
Cheney responded.
You shouldn’t refuse a cordial hand, and although Cheney had simulated this conversation with the Radiant Academy several times, harboring feelings of extreme dislike towards them;
but in reality this was his first meeting with anyone from Radiant Academy, and he was also a Level 1 Wizard just like him.
So he didn’t show any unnecessary emotions, rather quite indifferent.
On the other hand, Bailey was very enthusiastic.
“I disliked Albert for a long time. You, Nicholas, have made quite a stir this time. By now, the news that you killed Albert and took control of Fenn City has already spread across the Northern Continent.”
Bailey was being flattering as he spoke with a chuckle.
Hearing this, Cheney let out a soft laugh.
He may not know when Bailey got the news or how quickly he had rushed to
Fenn City,
But it is utterly impossible that the news of his killing Albert has spread all over the Northern Continent.
Cheney has learned a lot about the vastness of the Northern Continent of Corner Sea from his months of research.
However, he didn’t expose Bailey’s intentional flattery, but rather seemed to be enjoying it.
The two slowly began to chat, and towards the end, Bailey even suggested a waiving of the White Raven Society’s tribute this time.
But Cheney promptly refused, expressing that he wouldn’t burden Bailey.
The number of magic stones he would offer this time would be more, not less.
If he had agreed to let Bailey waive this, then it would be the same as holding a leverage over Bailey.
Cheney isn’t foolish. His many simulations have shown him just how hypocritical the people of Radiant Academy can be.
If they were to fall out later, Bailey would definitely reverse the situation. He would insist that Cheney himself refused the tribute, not that Bailey had waived it for him.
After all, Bailey doesn’t really have that authority.
If it comes down to that point, who will Radiant Academy believe? Certainly not likely to be Cheney.
When the Radiant Academy retaliates, they tend to concoct an absurd reason.
And Cheney wouldn’t let the waiver of magic stones become such an unfounded justification.
The two laughed and chatted, but what they were thinking in their hearts, no one knew.
