Becoming a Wizard by Starting From the Mind Closure Technique

“Humph, more than just being a scapegoat, they take us for fools! That commotion over there is so huge, are we blind? Can’t we see? The person who sent the letter just wants us to be the fall guys.”

“So, we ignore it?”

“Ignore it!”

“But how do we explain this to the higher-ups?”

“Explain?”

“What’s there to explain? Just report the whole thing as it is.”

“On what grounds?”

“Aren’t the reasons right in front of us? Just say that Link Grande is now with Elise Clark and Monroe Brisegio, their strength is very formidable, they just annihilated a large group of sixty plus from the opposition. We are no match, and dare not recklessly attack.”

“That… doesn’t sound very good, it makes us look uncommitted.”

“Then tell me how we should report it?”

“All that was fine, but replace ‘dare not attack recklessly’ with ‘doing our utmost to monitor their movements, to prevent them from slipping away’.”

“Alright then.”

“Right.”

“I agree.”

All three captains arrived at a consensus, ended the meeting, each leaving with joy.

Another day where they didn’t have to risk their lives.

Cheerful!

This put those secretly observing the ‘Pure Blood Will’ team in a complicated mood.

They were hiding in the mountain stream where Lanny Team had stayed, other than sending two people to report to the major force, they did not make any movements.

They obviously had no intention to strike.

They didn’t even want to get close and scout.

“Are they just going to slack off like this?”

The effeminate man voiced his doubt, his tone was filled with disbelief.

You guys are the team sent to specifically deal with Link Grande, you should at least make a move.

What are you doing hiding here?

“It seems we have overestimated the ‘Pure Blood Will’ team’s resolution in dealing with Link Grande.”

The burly man responded, “It seems these people might not be used for this.” “Humph!”

The icy woman scoffed, sarcastically said, “Instead of making these flashy moves, they should have gathered more people at that time and attacked when Elise and Monroe were down. Now, what a waste of a good opportunity, giving them time to recover.”

“Alright, cut the crosstalk. You also agreed with this strategy at that time, don’t act like you’re the only one who saw it clearly.”

The chubby man saw the effeminate man and the burly man’s faces both darkened, so he stepped in to mediate, “We should think together about how to continue dealing with Elise and Monroe.”

“As far as I’m concerned, there’s no need to keep focusing on Elise and Monroe anymore.”

The effeminate man touched his chin, twirling the soft skin on his chin as he contemplated his words, “Now that I think about it, Monroe Brisegio’s logic in his actions is slightly different from that mad woman Elise.”

“What’s the difference?”

The burly man asked curiously.

“That mad woman Elise, just creates chaos without a strong purpose. Monroe, on the other hand, has always been competing with us to kill the Giant Beasts.

I understand Monroe better, he has a strong sense of purpose in everything he does, including his pursuit of the mad woman Elise.

Without a convincing reason, he wouldn’t be so keen on killing the Giant Beasts.

So, there must be a secret we don’t know about.”

“You’ve been talking for a long time, but essentially said nothing. Who doesn’t know there’s a secret? The question is, what secret? Spit it out, will you?”

Just as the chubby man finished defending the effeminate man, he slyly mocked him.

“Heh!”

The effeminate man didn’t mind, he chuckled coldly and continued, “A secret that could make Monroe so eager to kill the Giant Beasts, of course, is related to the camp mission.”

“Couldn’t he just be doing it for camp confrontation, or simply to hinder us?”

The icy woman proposed a different viewpoint.

“Please think about it, our camp mission is to destroy the world. Their mission is to save the world. If they were simply hindering, as you said, they should be saving the Giant Beasts from us, not competing to kill them. If it was for camp confrontation, they should target all opposition camps, not just those hunting the Giant Beasts.”

The effeminate man rolled his eyes, saying without words.

“So you mean, their killing of the Giant Beasts is to save the world?”

The burly man seemed to have some thought but still didn’t grasp the key point, he asked doubtfully, “Killing to save, this logic could work, but how does it transform?”

“Yes.”

The effeminate man nodded, affirming the burly man’s question, then said, “I’m not sure how it transforms, but we don’t need to know. This does not affect our next move.”

“So, what do you think we should do next?”

The chubby man asked, “Even without a concrete plan, there should be a rough strategy, right?”

“I believe, we should focus on the camp mission, not the camp confrontation, try to find out Monroe’s secret, or simply think in the opposite direction.”

The effeminate man was again twirling the soft skin on his chin, contemplating his words.

“Think in the opposite direction?”

The icy woman snorted, “What do you mean by ‘think in the opposite direction’? Explain clearly.”

The effeminate man gave a sinister laugh:

“Since Monroe is so eager to complete the camp mission, let’s just expose his intentions to everyone.

Tell all the members of the opposing camp, and those in the righteous camps with different thoughts, that the team centered around Elise Clark, Monroe Brisegio, and Link Grande is about to complete the camp mission.”
