Chapter 105: Aldwin
Translator:Atlas StudiosEditor:Atlas Studios
No, I dont
Hes Aldwin, the President of Alanna Guild of Magic. Also hes probably the most powerful mage in the whole Felan Kingdom Mason answered weakly. He thought that he might go crazy; sometimes, he really suspected whether this kid was pretending. How could a mage be this ignorant?
So formidable?
Its more than that It is said that President Aldwin had broken through to level twenty-one ten years ago. Perhaps only God knows what realm hes in now
Lin Li was probably more aware than most people how horrifying a power beyond that of a legendary level was, for he had exchanged strikes with Old Grimm. Although Old Grimm had used only strength below level-ten, it was enough to suppress a level-twelve Magic Shooter like him. If he did not deliberately suppress his power, not to mention Lin Li, even Gerian would be reduced to ashes in a flash.
If only I had half the strength of President Aldwin For a young mage like Mason, Aldwin was a true legend. Even though he liked to brag, he had not the audacity to say as good as President Aldwin, but cautiously chose only half.
The idiots daydreaming again, Orrin said dryly.
Damn it Masons anger shot up at once. If they werent at the guild hall, hed have jumped on Orrin and fought him.
The two guys were now at battle pitch, but Lin Li ignored them. He had gotten used to it.
Anyway, this was the guild hall; even if they were given a hundred times more guts, they wouldnt dare to make trouble here.
Lin Lis eyes were fixed on Aldwin. He was full of curiosity about the legendary level twenty-one mage.
Like most old people, Aldwin looked thin and slightly hunched. He wore a long gray robe, which looked too big on him. Judging from appearance only, who could imagine that the most powerful magic strength of the Felan Kingdom was contained in this old body?
Compared with the arrogant Gerian, the president of the Alanna Guild of Magic was on the other extreme. When he listened to Darians report, he was always smiling and his expression was serene. He expressed his opinions occasionally, but it was only in the intervals between Darians words.
Lin Li was accustomed to Gerians autocratic rule. He was curious for a momenthow did such a kind old man get his subordinate mages to be so docile and compliant?
This was Alannathe heart of Felan Kingdom. In its Guild of Magic, there were over 30 Archmages and over 100 Magic Shooters. As for mages below level-ten, there were simply too many to count every one of them. The difficulty in Aldwins management was not to be compared with what a Jarrosus rich man like Gerian faced.
At this time, Aldwin seemed to notice Lin Lis gaze on him. He gave a few more instructions to Darian, then turned to face Lin Li, who was shocked to have been caught while staring covertly. Aldwin did not seem to mind, though; he merely smiled kindly before turning away and leaving the hall.
As the thin figure faded away, Lin Li remained in doubt. He felt that there seemed to be some other meaning in Aldwins smile besides the kindness and friendliness
Lin Li was in a bewilderment when he heard Masons muffled cry. Why is Gryffindor here as well?!
This time, it was not just Mason who was surprised; even Orrins deadened face revealed an indistinct astonishment.
Seeing the looks on both their faces, Lin Li couldnt help but ask out of curiosity, Who is Gryffindor?
You cant be Mason rolled his eyes.
This person is famous?
Not just famous, but extremely, extremely, extremely famous! Mason used extremely thrice to describe him. He was praised as Felans first-ever magic genius at the age of ten. Dont you think he is extremely, extremely, extremely famous? He had become a mage officially at the age of ten and was a super magic genius who had advanced to level-nine at the age of 16
At the mention of this, a trace of doubt suddenly appeared on Masons face. Disregarding the baffled Lin Li, he began to mumble to himself. Gryffindor is one year older than me, so he should be 24 this year It has been eight years, why is he still at level-nine No, no. I must have remembered it wrongly
Big Brother Mason, who exactly is Gryffindor? Lin Li understood as soon as he heard what Mason saidit was another cheater. For a while, he was interested to know more about this super magic genius, Gryffindor.
Look to the left; its the one wearing the black mage robe.
Lin Li followed Masons gaze and saw a young mage talking cheerfully there.
The young man was good-lookinghe was tall and handsome. It was only a shame that his eyes looked a little too small. In particular, they would narrow when he laughed, making them look thin and long, giving off an effeminate feel.
His black mage robe was exquisitely craftedit was probably made by a famous tailor. It also emitted a strong magical wave. From what Lin Li saw, the magical wave was even stronger than the Robe of Wraths. But what really surprised Lin Li was the powerful aura emanating from the young mage.
The young mages strength was far beyond Lin Lis imagination. Among the young people he had seen, perhaps only Cromwell, who had gone through the transformation, could compare with him.
He was at least level-fourteen, or even level-fifteen!
Which Guild of Magic is he from?
The Alanna Guild of Magic, of course.
No wonder Lin Li nodded and did not question further. Perhaps only the heart of the Felan Kingdom, the Alanna Guild of Magic, could foster such an impressive character.
Amidst their exchanges, Lin Li suddenly noticed the unusual expression on Orrins face.
Orrins pale face showed a hint of agitation as he saw Gryffindor. Although his hands were huddled in his sleeves, anyone could guess that his hidden hands had to be firmly clenched into fists from the quiver of the mage robe.
Lin Li was a little confused; Orrin had always been arrogant and indifferent. How could he have lost his sense of proportion at the sight of Gryffindor?
And then he saw Gryffindor coming in their direction.
Heh heh Orrin, I cant believe youre here! Gryffindors face was full of smiles, but as he approached the three guys, his eyes were fixed on the agitated Orrin. As for Lin Li and Mason who were just beside him, Gryffindor did not even spare a look at them.
Orrin did not speak, but only stared at the other party in the eyes; the hands that were hidden in his sleeves were trembling even harder.
To be honest, Orrin, I was quite surprised. Ive always thought you wouldnt dare to participate in the trial When Gryffindor laughed, his long, slender eyes were squinted once more; the effeminate feel he gave off annoyed Lin Li.
Please go away. Orrins words were still plain and concise, but judging from his husky voice, he was definitely not as calm as he sounded.
Heh heh Orrin, youre still the same. Alright, Ill leave right away. I hope I can still see you at the final qualifying competition. Gryffindor took a step backward with the smile still on his face, and his contemptuous eyes swept over Masons face. There was some mockery in his tone. But, to be honest, Orrin, your luck is really bad. Look at your teammates, hes actually a real level-nine mage
Wait As he spoke, he suddenly saw Lin Li, who was just next to Mason. Gryffindor seemed to have discovered a new continent. Oh my God If Im not mistaken, this one should be a level-seven mage, right?
F*ck How could Mason swallow the insult? He clenched his fist and wanted to dash forward to punch him, but as soon as he took a step out, he was held back tightly by Lin Li. This was the guild hall. If Mason dared to make trouble here, he would surely be driven back to Chevan City. In the end, Lin Li could not just stand and watch him do something silly. They were roommates sharing the same dorm, after all.
As for the something-findor Anyway, the coming days would be long; Lin Li was in no hurry at all.
Orrin, youre really unlucky Gryffindors laughter was pompous amid Masons bawl. Youre actually met with such two teammates. Looks like I may not necessarily see you in the qualifying competition. Hahahaha
Scram! Orrins hoarse roar alarmed everyone. The 20-odd young mages turned their heads and looked at him in confusion.
And then there were whispers all around.
Look, that seems to be Orrin from the Rotterdam Guild!
Yes, yes, yes I remember him. Hes the magic genius who was beaten by Gryffindor three years ago.
So its him
I heard that this fellow is really impressive. Its a pity he has met Gryffindor. How unlucky
Gryffindor seemed to revel in their discussions. It was not until the murmurs died down that he went away with a satisfied expression on his face.
Orrin, if youre unable to complete the trial missions, come and beg me!
