Novel Full Chapter 461 Elder Paul
The Silver House,
“What are you guys doing?”
“You let those heirs of the wizard family slip away,” an old man in his mixtures berated the people in front of him.
He is one of the acting elders of the noble silver family.
Right now, the confrontation between the Silver House and the Brown House is reaching a crucial end.
As the high-end power of both families is the same. Those high-level beings won’t start the fight first. It’s the people below who should make sure of weakening the opposite side.
One of their methods was to capture the heirs of supporting forces. Especially if they capture the descendants who support the Brown House. It will be an added advantage to them.
They can make more plans without needing the powerful existence of their family to make a move.
The old man’s name is Paul Silver. He was one of the descendants of the branch family. After reaching a higher level in the wizard path. He had joined the main branch as an elder.
In Front, many people are standing, carrying solemn expressions on their faces. He was a level-7 wizard.
The people in front of him are newly appointed or inexperienced elders. All of them are level-6 wizards.
Among them, a person with silver hair is standing with a stoic expression on his face. He was the same person who had gone to the Yellow River Academy’s branch for support.
Elder Paul frowned. He hates this silence.
Looking at them he instructed, “Split into teams and search for the heirs of the wizard families.”
Hearing that people breathed in relief. Many of them thought the meeting would take a whole day. Then everyone left the room one by one.
But the wizard with silver hair stayed in the same position. After everyone left he was the last one remaining in the same position.
Elder Paul squinted his eyes. He easily recognized the person.
“You broke through,” Elder Paul asked in disbelief. He found the energy level of the person is similar to his.
The silver-haired wizard nodded his head in response.
Then he uttered, “Yeah, it’s been months.”
Elder Paul was shocked to the core again. It was against the rule to cover up the breakthrough. Especially at the time of war.
“Ford, then why didn’t you inform the higher-ups? Do you know we are getting pressured at the front?” Elder Pual asked back again.
The Silver Haired Person’s name is Ford. He didn’t show any reaction on his face. He looked at Paul and answered, “My master, doesn’t want anyone to know about my strength for the time being.”
“Master?” Elder Paul uttered. The next second, a cold shiver went down his spine. He remembers Ford’s master was a level-8 wizard.
So he immediately shut his mouth.
“Since it’s a high elder’s wish. I’ll keep my mouth shut,” Elder Paul assured.
But Ford shook his head and said, “Elder Paul, I came here for a different reason. I hope you will agree with my request.”
Elder Paul nodded his head and asked, “What is it?” He doesn’t want to offend anyone. Especially the level-8 wizard in the same family. It’s tantamount to stepping on your foot yourself.
Wearing the same expression on his face. Ford began to speak.
“The Yellow River Academy’s side branch was attacked in our capital. And one of their level-6 wizards disappeared under the attack.”
Elder Paul’s expression changes drastically. Already, they got enough trouble on their plate. Why cause a new one?
Before Elder Paul could speak. Ford added further, “We couldn’t find the identity of the attacker. He escaped from my grasp.”
Even though Ford simply stated it. Elder Paul couldn’t believe his ears. What is he hearing? Someone escaped from his grasp.
“Unfortunately, I was on the scene. And the Yellow River Academy is demanding an explanation. So I want you to cover it up. Find the scapegoat or pin the blame on someone else,” Ford said without showing an expression on his face.
Elder Paul was shocked to the core. Looking at Ford, he got a new understanding of him. No wonder when everyone left. And he stayed behind.
The atmosphere turned pin-drop quiet. While Ford is waiting for an answer. Elder Paul is wracking up his brain to find some solution.
He can tell that it’s not only Ford’s request. But also the meaning of the level-8 wizard behind him. No doubt, he has to sell a face.
Then Like Ford suggested, he decided to find some scapegoat later. There are a lot of people dying in the conflict.
And it’s easy to find the corpse of a level-6 wizard. So he decided to make up some story later.
After figuring it out, he looked at Ford.
He said, “Alright, I will take care of it.”
Hearing that there was some movement in Ford’s face. He was satisfied by Elder Paul’s answer. But Ford didn’t want to owe someone.
So he added further, “Elder if you have any request, you can tell me. I’ll do it for you in exchange for my request.”
Elder Paul revealed a bright smile on his face. It’s not like he didn’t have any work. He got a tonne of it.
Then he sent the details to Ford directly.
“I gave you a list of names. I want at least a few people captured alive among those named. The names are of descendants of wizard families,” Elder Paul said.
Unlike his previous instruction, the list contains the names of important people. Their background could change the course of the conflict.
Ford nodded his head at him before walking out of the place.
When he left the Silver Mansion. He arrived at his place a few minutes later. Like other elders, he too got his men to do the dirty work. But this time he is going to send them on a mission.
A few minutes later,
Several people in disguise appeared in front of him. They are his subordinates. Ford showed no expression. He simply forwarded the list sent by Elder Paul to them.
He then gave orders to them. As Elder Paul requested, he instructed his men to capture the people alive.
…
Rust City,
Gilbert Reese arrives in the city. His visit was a formal one. So people from the government immediately contacted him.
To find the trace of massing people, he needed the help of officials. So he can’t disregard them. He decided to meet them after doing some investigation.
Gilbert Reese took some potion to hide his breath. The energy level of the level-7 wizard is off the charts. You can’t just go around and walk casually in the city.
He also did something to change his appearance. Now nobody would be able to guess his real identity.
Gilbert Reese decided to take a look at the border crossing first. If his information was right, then Vincent’s enemy might be still looking for him.
When he arrives at the border crossing area. He saw something. There are many people doing inspections. “When does the government have such manpower?” He said to himself.
Because he saw more than 10 people searching for the vehicles. Gilbert instantly finds out something is wrong here.
Among them, there are level-5 wizards. So many level-5 wizards in one place. Gilbert understood this was not a government force. But a private one.
Then he decides to wait for sunset before capturing someone.
Meanwhile,
Cortez Burnett is still staying in one of the recently built mansions. He was ordered not to come back before finding the traces of Vincent Carey.
He has some status in the Burnett Clan. So he knows what is happening in the family? The young master’s future is purely dependent on their mission.
So people from the brunette clan are working day and night to look for Vincent Carey. As far as he knows the Burnett Clan Head even sent high-level wizards to Vincent Carey’s hometown.
The head wants to find Vincent Carey’s parents. But he doesn’t know the latest update. So Cortez made up his mind to call his colleague later.
Beep!
The sudden message, him awake. After seeing the contact’s name, Cortez’s expression becomes dignified.
“Young Master, ” he uttered in shock. He didn’t expect the Young master to call him at this time.
When he attended the call. A holographic projection appears above the watch. A person appeared in the projection. He is none other than Tony Burnett.
“Young master,” Cortez said.
Tony Burnett in the projection nodded his head before saying, “Is there any news about him? How is the situation out there?”
Hearing that Cortez’s expression turned ugly. But he didn’t intend to hide anything.
“Young master, sorry to disappoint you. there was no sign of him so far.”
“We are keeping an eye on the border. If he appears then it will be his last day,” Cortez said with a solemn expression.
But Tony wasn’t fazed by it. Because he used to hear empty words before.
What he wants right now is the result. After meeting the unknown female wizard. He was even more afraid. He doesn’t want to go back there. ．𝙘𝙤𝙢
The purpose of his call was about the forbidden potion.
