Chapter 202 - Fighting openly and secretly
Chapter 202: Fighting openly and secretly Translations
Dick did not delay for long. Soon, he walked toward Ron with Loche and the others.
Ron had not deliberately eavesdropped on their conversation. He did not know what Dick had said to them, but the gaze of these Magi from the Spirit Ribbon Academy was still filled with fear and awe when they looked at Ron. They walked up to Ron and bowed respectfully to him in unison. Loche said, “Thank you for helping us out just now, Senior. Don’t worry, we definitely won’t reveal anything about what has happened here!” Ron nodded with a smile. Dick walked to Ron’s side and said, “We can go now.”
Ron nodded slightly and released a burst of magical power to hold Dick, and then the two of them flew into the sky.
The Spirit Ribbon Academy disciples looked up at the two of them. A woman could not help but say, “You… take care!!”
Dick smiled and waved at them. “Take care too. If there’s a chance in the future, we might meet again.”
The two of them flew in the direction of Winterfrost. Ron turned around and glanced at the few Spirit Ribbon Academy disciples who had also started to leave quickly. He said to Dick, “If you want to bring another person back to the Nicholas family, it won’t be a problem.”
Hearing this, Dick was stunned for a moment, and then he understood that Ron should be referring to Wendy. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. “It’s not what you think. Junior Sister Wendy is on good terms with me, but it’s not a relationship between a man and a woman. I’ve always treated her only as a younger sister.”
This should be a case of one-sided love on her part, right?
Ron was still unwilling to give up. He asked, “Do you have anyone you like?”
Dick was a little speechless. “No…” However, he was wondering why this kid was nosey like an aunt next-door.
Ron sighed to himself—it looked like there was no hope of bringing another person back.
He was thinking that although he had only found Dick alone from the Nicholas family, it would count as two if he could bring back his female companion.
Sensing that Dick’s aura was still a little weak and disorderly, Ron took out a healing pill from his Storage Ring and handed it to him, saying, “Take this pill first. I’ll heal you when we get on the flying ferry.”
Dick took the pill and swallowed it. He immediately looked much better. “I’m fine,” he said. “No issue.”
Updates by NovelFullAs Ron continued to fly, he asked, “What feud do you have with those people?”
Dick smiled bitterly, and then told Ron briefly about his feud with Ower.
And his own experience.
It turned out that not long after Dick had followed his mother here when he was young, his mother had unfortunately passed away.
Then, Dick was told that the old man from the Spirit Dragon Treasure Pavilion had once been one of the Divine Power Realm elders of the Spirit Ribbon Academy. Later, he retired because of his serious injuries and was running that weapon store.
When Dick was ten years old, he was nurtured and recommended by an old man to join the Spirit Ribbon Academy.
Although his talent was not outstanding, he was not bad and he had a talent for weapon refinement. He was also one of the best among the generation of disciples of the Spirit Ribbon Academy back then. Five years ago, when he was in his teens, he was already a Great Mage, and his weapon refinement skills were also outstanding.
Dick should have had a bright future ahead of him, but because he had become enemies with someone during a training session five years ago, his life changed completely.
At that time, the two of them had fought over a heavenly treasure, and Dick had defeated Ower, but he had accidentally seriously injured the other party.
Later on, the Black Forest faction went directly to the Spirit Ribbon Academy to demand an explanation, and accused Dick of sneak attacking and injuring the other party to snatching the treasure. They wanted to make the Spirit Ribbon Academy hand over Dick.
In the Black Forest faction, there was a Divine Power Realm Mage. The Spirit Ribbon Academy was only famous for its weapon refinement. There were actually not many Divine Power Realm experts in the family, and currently, there was not even one Divine Power Realm Magi.
However, with the prestige of the Spirit Ribbon Academy, there was no need to be afraid of the Black Forest faction. Moreover, the Black Forest faction not only did not have a feud with the Spirit Ribbon Academy, they also had an elder in the Black Forest faction, who was a friend of a senior from the Spirit Ribbon Academy!
In the Spirit Ribbon Academy, there were also some open and covert struggles. Dick’s master happened to be at odds with the old man from the Black Forest faction…
Due to various reasons, Dick eventually became the victim of the power struggle in the Divine Temple. He was seriously injured by the Divine Temple and had his arm crippled. In the end, he was even expelled from the Spirit Ribbon Academy!
If it had not been for the old man from the Spirit Dragon Treasure Pavilion using his connections in the Divine Temple to protect Dick, he might have even been handed over to the Black Forest faction and lost his life! Even so, Ower had issued a warning, saying that if Dick dared to leave the Walls Village, he would kill Dick.
In the past five years, Dick had been disheartened and became an assistant in the Spirit Dragon Treasure Pavilion. He had never been anywhere else.
It was just that not long ago, Wendy and the others had found him, hoping that he would help complete a training mission for the Divine Temple. They wanted to go to a special place in the Black Forest, where Dick had once been. They wanted him to help lead the way.
When Ron had visited the Spirit Dragon Treasure Pavilion, he had also met Wendy and the other girl.
Dick had initially refused, but in the end, he agreed to help out on account of their old friendship, being of the same family clan.
Originally, both sides had not thought that there would be any problems. Getting into the Black Forest was also very smooth. They had successfully found that place and completed the training mission. Although they had encountered a beast tide, it was not a problem for them to retreat.
Unexpectedly, Ower suddenly appeared and even ambushed Dick and beat him up!
If Dick had not been alert and lucky enough, he might have died on the spot from the sneak attack. Then, it was the scene Ron saw when he arrived.
After hearing Dick’s story, Ron did not look good. He was very angry.
Not only was he angry at the Black Forest faction for bullying others, he was also angry at the Spirit Ribbon Academy for not understanding the situation!
As he had had similar experiences before, Ron could empathize with Dick’s encounters.
If he had not been worried that his level was not high enough and that he still had the mission from the Old Ancestor, he would have gone to seek justice for Dick!
However, it did not matter. He had already remembered this debt. Today, he had killed Ower and the others to collect some interest first. As for the rest, after he had brought Dick back to the family, Dick could come back to settle it himself in the future!!
As for the serious injuries on Dick and his crippled arm, Ron was not worried at all. He absolutely believed that someone would be able to treat him and enable Dick to have a better future and greater achievements than he had when in the Spirit Ribbon Academy!!
“Eh? Which senior is it?” “Thank you, Senior, for saving my life!” “Thank you, Senior, for saving my life!” “Farewell, Senior!”
When Ron flew to the edge of the Black Forest with Dick, many Magi, who had retreated earlier, appeared below. When some of them saw Ron, they shouted their thanks.
They were all Magi from the Demon Beast Crusade Team whom Ron had saved earlier.
