Chapter 2221: Evelyn’s Brilliant Plan

Mage Union Outer Hall

Inside the white-colored castle building, there were many hallways and hundreds of rooms. Not all of them were accessible to the Outer Hall members.

Many were off-limits, but there were places they could get permission to enter. One of them was the offices of the Outer Hall staff.

Inside one such office, Lord Evelyn was working. She was the head of the office staff, and she oversaw all the administrative work.

She was the most bothered and affected by the activities of the Covenant. The Covenant’s Front Line Wizards were attacking their businesses.

There were several losses reported-including the loss of lives. She was the one responsible for accounting for the losses.

She then passed them on to the Inner Hall higher-ups of the Mage Union.

"When are they going to stop watching from the sidelines?" Evelyn muttered.

The Outer Hall had the Magic Lords, but they were not suitable to handle the Covenant matter. The Covenant revealed that they had Forbidden Wizards behind them.

She had also heard information that the Covenant’s Elders were actually Elder-Level Powerhouses. If the current crisis needed to be solved, then the Inner Hall Elders needed to step in.

The Core Hall of the Mage Union had always been secret and mysterious. She herself didn’t know much about it, not unless she became an Elder-Level Powerhouse one day.

Buzz!

Just as she was pondering over this matter, her device buzzed. She picked up the device and saw the contact name. She immediately answered the call.

"Lord Charlotte, how have you been?" she asked.

"I’m doing fine, Lord Evelyn. I tried to contact you yesterday, but I could not find your whereabouts," Charlotte replied.

Hearing that, Evelyn shook her head and said, "I went outside to check the footprints of the front-line wizards of the Covenant."

"I heard the Forbidden Wizard behind them appeared at a remote village in our territory," she added.

Charlotte grew serious. She knew about the things happening behind the scenes. They were also occupied with a mission related to that.

"Did anything come up?" Charlotte asked.

"Nothing, the whole village was wiped out. It appears they became experimental material for forbidden magic," Evelyn said in a serious tone.

Charlotte became serious as well. She didn’t expect things to escalate to this level. They were facing challenges on their side too.

"What did you call me for?" Evelyn asked.

"It’s regarding Magic Lord Vincent. He wanted a break. He is going somewhere," Charlotte said.

Evelyn immediately knew it was about the genius young man from the Silver Tower who became a Magic Lord. He was slightly slower than Magic Lord Celeste, but he was strong as well.

"I thought he would come to visit me. Looks like he forgot about me," Evelyn said.

Charlotte knew she had to bring up the matter; otherwise, Evelyn wouldn’t be convinced. She then began to tell her the reason.

A few minutes later...

Evelyn’s eyes sparkled. She didn’t expect the young man to take a risk again. She knew about the rescue mission done by Magic Lord Vincent.

All the influential people had dug up the information. They knew Elder Dana had given a mission to Wizard Vincent at that time.

Wizard Vincent was able to become a Magic Lord due to that opportunity. He was then able to rescue the Forbidden Wizard. The news was still well-kept among their allies.

If the news were to reach the rivals of the Silver Tower, they could purposely leak the news to the Covenant’s side.

"Lord Charlotte, you know this Ancient Mine Nation is not that weak, right?" Evelyn asked, her tone sounding serious.

"Yes, I know they are sitting on wealthy resource points. The resources are still unexhausted right now," Charlotte said.

She didn’t tell Manager Lara, but she knew about the Ancient Mine Nation, as it was one of the most mysterious nations in the world.

Even the Mage Union didn’t have a full understanding of them. The intel regarding them was not thorough.

"The Ancient Mine Nation is no ordinary nation. Like us, they are sitting on the relics of an old magic civilization that had a short-lived history. None of the wizards from the Mage Union have been able to collect credible intelligence on them. Basically, we don’t know what’s going on there."

"We cannot help Magic Lord Vincent if he lands himself in trouble," Evelyn voiced her thoughts.

Charlotte was silent for a moment. She thought Lord Evelyn knew more than she did.

Charlotte asked, "What do you suggest?"

Evelyn smiled and said, "Actually, we can work around that. There is a way we can help him, if he takes an official mission to collect intel."

"We have very little information on the lost magic civilization and the current Ancient Mine Nation is sitting on. It would be better if he takes this trip not only as a rescue mission but for intelligence gathering as well," Evelyn said.

Hearing that, Charlotte’s eyes flashed with understanding. She had no doubt that Magic Lord Vincent could pull this off again.

She knew that the young man had done many dangerous missions before. As long as he protected himself from an Elder-Level Powerhouse, he could walk sideways there.

"I’m sure he will agree to it. But the Ancient Mine Nation is not the actual threat. There is a hidden force behind it. I suspect they are after that relic of the old magic civilization as well," Charlotte said.

Evelyn’s expression grew serious, and she said, "We don’t want another Covenant to pop up. We are already being threatened by one currently. It’s all the more necessary to have intel on them as well."

"I’m sure no one will object to the mission-including the Inner Hall higher-ups," she added.

"Okay, I’ll tell him," Charlotte said.

"Ask him to come back to the Magic City. He needs to present himself at the Outer Hall to receive his first mission. Then everyone will know, and no one will bother him," Evelyn said.

Then they ended the call. Charlotte next called Manager Lara and informed her. She gave her a small briefing.

She wanted Vincent Carey to come back to the Magic City, and she would take him to the Outer Hall office this time.

Manager Lara agreed to that before ending the call.
