Chapter 468 Meeting The Strangers
From MC’s perspective:
After walking through the forest for so long. I decided to slow down a little bit. I came far away from the murderer’s spot. I don’t think the unknown dark wizards follow me any longer.
Which gave me a sigh of relief. As long as I reach the border then everything will be fine. So as I thought but not long after I came across the strangers.
“Who are you?” A woman asked. But I’m sure she is a female wizard.
The woman is none other than Jane. She is together with her young miss Linda Oslen. Both of them followed another old route to come here.
Three of them came across each other at this intersection.
Linda Oslen blinked her big eyes. Unlike her maid, she was not hostile.
At the same time, my gaze fell on the route where they came from. It was unexpected.
I never expected someone to walk through the ancient forbidden route. But I sighed in relief inwardly.
I’m in disguise because of the potion. I don’t think they will find out. Instead of answering their question, I choose to remain silent.
Then ignoring them, I resumed my journey.
Seeing that she was ignored. Maid Jane couldn’t believe her eyes. She then decides to attack.
But before she could do that she felt a touch on her shoulder. Linda Oslen stopped her from attacking.
“No, I feel no malice from him,” Linda said.
Maid Jane stopped her actions after hearing that. Then the duo started to walk on the same path.
They are just a dozen steps behind the stranger.
“He looks so young. Is he the young master of a certain wizard family or a rogue wizard?” Linda thought to herself.
Anyway, as long as there is no danger. She doesn’t mind his presence.
Meanwhile,
Though I’m walking in front. But my heart was not calm at all. I’m feeling a piercing gaze on my back.
Certainly, the gaze was not from the young women. But from the female wizard behind her.
“Don’t tell me she is the female version of Dudley Kramer,” I joked in my heart.
Time passed,
We are walking through the forest slowly. But none of us talked.
[Ding! Warning]
[Ding! Danger spotted ahead.]
A mechanical voice sounded in my mind.
Hearing that I stopped walking abruptly. Apart from the dense vegetation. Nothing can be found.
A trace of apprehension appeared in my eyes. I don’t know whether the danger lies under the ground or if there is a trap laid down ahead.
At the same time, Linda and Jane reached the spot as well.
“Why did you stop?” Linda asked.
Two of them are closely keeping an eye on him. But so far the young man didn’t act suspiciously.
So her attitude became friendlier compared to before.
Jane’s eyes flickered with a cold glint.
At the same time, I frowned. “These two….?” I mumbled under my breath.
Nothing good comes out of interacting with unknown people. Especially the female wizard who is looking at me with unkind eyes.
“You….?”
“Why are you not answering?”
“Young miss is talking to you,” Jane said in a cold tone.
“Young miss?” I said in my heart. Like I had guessed before she was the female version of Dudley Kramer.
Looks like the young master and young miss of the wizard families are beginning to enter the dark forest.
“Nothing, I’m just feeling bored,” After saying that I sat under the nearby tree.
“So you are not dumb,’ Linda said with a smile.
I got black lines over my forehead.
“Miss, we can continue to walk,” Jane said all of a sudden.
Linda nodded before both of them started walking. Seeing that, I sneered inside.
Both of them will scout the danger that lies ahead for me. Why didn’t I think of this before? A bright smile appeared on my face.
Boom~
Not long after, I heard a deafening sound ahead of me. Seeing that, a huge smoke rose from the ground. My expression grew darker.
I don’t know what happened to them. But this explosion will certainly draw the attention of others.
Thinking about the level-6 unknown dark-clothed wizard. My expression becomes even worse.
Swoosh~
The next moment, I disappeared from the spot and appeared in the Gregor Mansion. Those guys can arrive.
So I entered the control room to see.
Outside,
“Jane?” Linda called out in an anxious tone. There was a deadly trap before them. Right before Linda, Jane took the full brunt of it.
When the smoke cleared.
Jane appeared with disheveled hair. Apart from the torn clothes and a few scratches on her skin. She didn’t suffer any other damages.
Seeing that Linda sighed in relief.
“Young miss, I’m alright. It’s just that I didn’t expect a broken artifact to have lingering power in it,” Jane said in a trembling tone.
“Young miss, I was careless. Forgive me,” Jane asked for forgiveness.
Linda shook her head and said, “It’s fine. I was so scared for a second.”
“Young miss,” Jane stopped midway. She made a terrible mistake.
Apart from her young miss has no support. It’s her responsibility to safeguard her.
Thinking about the trap the image of the stranger flashes in her mind. She remembered the doubtful expression of the stranger when her young miss asked him the question.
“He knows,” Jane muttered in a cold tone.
Swoosh~
The next moment, she disappeared from the spot and appeared at the spot where they and the young man talked to each other.
“Where is he?” Jane asked herself. She couldn’t find him by using her mental power. There was no other wizard nearby.
Like he had disappeared out of thin air.
Swoosh~
She went back to her young miss the next moment.
“Miss, the stranger was gone,’ Jane said to Oslen.
“What?”
“No way, did he go back?” She asked.
Jane shook her head before saying, “I couldn’t find him.”
“Strange?” Linda thought. Anyways, it was a strange meeting. She doesn’t have to think too much about it.
“Alright, let’s continue our journey,” Linda Oslen added further.
Right after they left, I appeared outside a few hours minutes later.
“How?” I muttered.
I thought that the unknown wizard would come. But to my surprise, no one came even after such an explosion.
What is going on? I couldn’t wrap my head around this. So I wasted so much time.
Then I turned my gaze towards the path. To my surprise, they didn’t care about me.
Sigh~
A small sigh left my mouth. Then I started walking slowly.
Time passed in a blink of an eye,
When it was late at night. I appeared in the Gregior Mansion and started to take the rest in the room.
The following day,
When I woke up, I felt my mind was a lot clearer with lightness. It was not as heavy as before. Come to think of it, my mental power should have recovered somewhat after yesterday’s practice. .ππ€π’

When the status panel appeared. My gaze immediately fell on the mental power. Seeing that attribute was recovered back to 35. A hint of relief flashes in my eyes.
Even without taking any cure, my mental power is going to recover in a few days. Then I got up from my bed and started to do my morning routine.
Several minutes later,
I sat cross-legged on the ground. Then I brought the remaining mana stones outside. I held it in my palm and started to run the gravity ark mental method.
Slowly the gray color mana particles entered my body. Right after, I guided the energy according to the mental method. The mana starts to flow through my meridians.
After circulation, the energy gathers inside the mana core space. In the mana core space, the mana core immediately absorbs incoming mana.
Seeing that I continued to repeat the process.
After three hours, I opened my eyes. Feeling the daily limit, my eyes flickered with a slight glint. Now I was left with a few stones.
It will aid my practice for one or two days.
