Chapter 489: Chapter 21: He Once Entrusted Me…

Today is almost another chance for Lynch to interact with the local top forces in Jade Land.

Compared to the Witch Castle, Green House is much stronger, although both belong to factions split off from the Tower of Nature. Green House was established long before the Tower of Nature ceased to exist.

Its Witch Master, Red Beard Baggen, originally had a brotherly relationship with Felvin under the Lord of Nature, both practicing within a Wizard Organization in Jade Land.

But Baggen had average talent and no mentor favored him, while Felvin was outstanding and advanced to Wizard one step ahead of him.

Afterwards, Felvin didn’t forget his brother from apprentice days, and upon gaining the qualifications to recruit apprentices, he took Baggen in as an apprentice, allowing him to enjoy the treatment an apprentice deserved.

With Felvin’s assistance, Red Beard didn’t disappoint his brother Lord of Nature, and within a few years, he advanced to Wizard level, later paving a path of hard-earned success to become one of the few Second Tier powerhouses in Jade Land.

At this moment, sitting on the sofa, Baggen starts a casual conversation with Lynch.

With a serene smile, he said, “I’ve heard about Sir Saphiro’s name long before, and today I finally meet him in person.”

“Although the rumors have persisted many times, it’s still surprising to see you in reality; at your age I had just advanced to Wizard, yet you have reached a level not inferior to any of us.”

Lynch humbly replied, “Sir Red Beard, you have exaggerated, it’s just that my luck is slightly better.”

He felt a bit strange in his heart, as he hadn’t revealed his real age to anyone, and Wizard’s actual age cannot be judged from appearance, theoretically, Baggen shouldn’t know his age.

Yet here he was, determined that Lynch was quite young, how did he tell? Does he also have an Eye of Death God?

Baggen continued to ask, “How is it, have you gotten used to the life in Jade Land?”

“Is it no worse than your Ancient Ruins?”

Lynch paused.

Baggen shook his head, lightly saying, “It’s not surprising, when you arrived on this land, many people started investigating you, after all, a Second Tier powerhouse appearing suddenly cannot be overlooked anywhere.”

“It was just that at the time Jade Land was still quite chaotic, everyone was busy and couldn’t focus on you. Seeing you nestling in that small plot in Feiyan City without making any move, nobody dug deeper.”

“When you defeated Tarim and took over Dark Moon Church, it became very difficult not to draw attention…”

Lynch’s expression changed slightly.

Originally he thought he had hidden well, but now it seems the situation isn’t as easy as he imagined.

Considering at that period when Lynch caused a great stir by chasing Tarim out of Jade Land, his identity was still not cleared, bearing the status of being most wanted.

If anyone hostile to him knew his identity then, simply reporting him to the Supreme Council wouldn’t even need him to act personally, someone would come to handle this trouble.

Lynch couldn’t understand, he believed he had hidden well, never exposing himself, how did these local forces in Jade Land connect him to a wanted criminal from another Witch Domain far away?

Given Fran’s influence, owning methods that reach such high levels of power isn’t surprising, but Jade Land only had Second Tier Mystic Techniques, it’s far too strange.

Seemingly seeing Lynch’s confusion, Baggen explained, “There’s no need to feel puzzled, Mr. Lynch, in fact, you did hide well, but…”

At this point, he paused slightly, before continuing, “An old friend of mine, long before you arrived, even before you came to this land, predicted you might come here, hence he provided me with your identity in advance.”

“Gray eyes are rare anywhere, its unique soul traits and spiritual power can be sensed when nearby.”

Lynch paused: “Your friend?”

Baggen nodded, proceeding to say, “I think you might know his name, Calvin, Calvin Tavendish, I hear over there he has another title, known as the Green Wizard.”

Green Wizard Calvin…

So that’s it…

Lynch said, “So you’re acquainted with Wizard Calvin?”

Baggen nodded, “I, him, and Felvin, the three of us once practiced and studied in the same place, following Fran’s Natural Wizard Albert Greenfield, we jointly listened to that great man’s teachings, truly memorable days.”

Following this, he explained, “When you first received the wanted notice, Wizard Calvin suspected you might flee in this direction, thus specifically sent a letter via Raven to ask me to protect you if we met.”

“Wizard Calvin detailed your stories in the letter, at that time I thought the old fellow was deceiving me since such descriptions were indeed too exaggerated.”

“But unexpectedly…”

He looked at Lynch with complicated emotions, remarked, “You’re even more impressive than depicted in the letter, before I found you, you already established a substantial Witch Domain here, becoming an equal to me.”

Half-jokingly, he said, “I suppose I’m no longer qualified to protect you now; Calvin, that old fellow, really brought an outstanding presence to our side!”

Wizard Calvin…

Actually in the Ancient Ruins he and the Green Wizard had quite an ordinary relationship, even somewhat hostile.

After all, the opponent once obstructed him in Wizard Inheritance, deceiving Avery to hand him a fake inheritance piece, a rather despicable action that Lynch hasn’t forgotten till now.

If not for possessing a system, or Somda’s Mentor’s inheritance, he feared he’d be stuck forever at Junior Wizard stages, unable to advance.

Foolishly cultivating a fake Wizard inheritance for life, sacrificing sleep and rising early without progress, mistakenly believing it was his skill problem, tricked for life.

But hearing Baggen’s description now, he feels Calvin isn’t as hateful as imagined.

No…

To be precise, it’s no longer a matter of being hateful or not.

At that level, many things are beyond personal will; as a maintainer of the Ancient Ruins rules system, a leader of Wizard Families and Pureblood, suppressing Muggles to uphold status is naturally expected.

In contemplating, if facing the same issues from his angle and position, Lynch would likely find no better way to handle them either. Find the newest release on NoveI(F)ire.net

With this thought, tensions long held in his heart ease slightly.

Lynch asked, “Is Wizard Calvin doing alright?”

Baggen frowned.

“This…”
