Chapter 412: Chapter 106: Reconciliation? Talk after a Hard Hit_3
Link, who knew the “background story” of Wizard Cody, thought to himself. He fully understood that if his team won the right to the special world, Wizard Cody would be the biggest beneficiary.
This Wizard Cody was the former leader of the Sage Palo faction.
A dazzling talent who once enjoyed boundless success.
A tragic figure who was sabotaged and forced to halt his promotion to Sage at the crucial moment.
Knowing that the outcome of the learning exchange could grant the right to a special world that would allow a wizard who failed to ascend to Sage to attempt again, Link had thought of this possibility.
At that time, he did not know whether it was a good or bad thing if Wizard Cody succeeded in becoming a Sage.
He still doesn’t know.
Suppressing his anxiety, Link sat down opposite the Serene Wizard, to the left of Wizard Cody.
Before Serene Wizard and Wizard Cody could ask him anything, Link spoke first, “There is something I need to report to you. The ruined world I visited during the learning exchange with Shadow City was unique. I hadn’t stayed more than half a day there, but when I returned I saw that half a month had passed in our homeland.”
“Half a month?”
“You went to that place?”
Before he could finish, the Serene Wizard and Wizard Cody almost spoke at the same time.
But the information conveyed by their words was significantly different.
The Serene Wizard was shocked by the speed of time, whereas Wizard Cody immediately guessed the location.
By the time the words of Wizard Cody had fallen, the Serene Wizard reacted and frowned slightly, “When I received the news of this learning exchange, I was never told about this.”
Wizard Cody waved his hand, calmly saying, “Don’t worry, no matter what the academy’s motive was for sending Link and the third-class wizard apprentices to that special ruined world, they will be adequately compensated. They won’t let them waste a whole half month of time.”
“That’s a relief.”
The Serene Wizard nodded, her eyebrows relaxed.
After all, she strongly suggested that Link participate in the squad selection. If it caused Link to suffer a great loss, it wouldn’t do.
Link continued, “After returning, Jasmine told me about Witch Zoran Lucia and Lucia’s family seeking a compromise. I’m not clear about the details, so I came to ask the Serene Wizard and Wizard Cody to enlighten me.”
“Hehehe…”
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the Serene Wizard burst out laughing, shaking and laughing righteously.
Wizard Cody also had a faint smile on his mouth, explaining:
“The Lucia family is too impulsive, and Zoran Lucia is too impulsive as well.
On the second day of Zoran’s return to his homeland, he called for an internal meeting.
The whole content is unknown, but there is confirmed news that at the end of the meeting, Zoran made a statement, supporting the strategy of completely eliminating you.
But that night, he received an urgent deployment from the academy and was sent away the next day.
The Lucia family, no matter how dull, could perceive that this was a warning from the academy’s high-level.
If they continue to make trouble, Zoran would probably be summoned here, dispatched there, and won’t have any tranquil time to cultivate. He would never find an opportunity to enter the Metamorphosis Period.
The Lucia family, top to bottom, are hoping for Zoran to ascend to Sage, enabling the family to advance further.
How could they let a ‘trivial matter’ like that drag Zoran down?
So they sent a message to me, wanting to reach a compromise with you in order to persuade the academy’s senior executives to stop their punishment.
The main thing is to stop the torment of Zoran.”
Link listened and pondered, muttering to himself, “So that’s how it is.”
A moment later, Link earnestly asked, “Wizard Cody, what do you think I should do?”
“Ask my opinion? Are you willing to listen?”
“Of course! It’s my honour to receive your guidance.”
Wizard Cody smiled faintly and said, “The compromise must be made, that’s for sure. The question is how to make it, what you can gain from it, and what our faction can gain from it.”
“How do you think we should handle it?”
Link asked immediately afterward.
At this moment, the Serene Wizard stopped laughing and regained her calm, interjecting, “Link, if you trust Cody and me, leave this matter to us to negotiate.”
Upon hearing this, Link immediately sat upright, solemnly stating, “Of course, I trust both you and Wizard Cody.”
After a pause, Link added, “I just hope that when we reach a compromise with the Lucia family, there are two conditions that must be met.”
“What conditions?”
“One is compensation for losses. I don’t need to say much about this; both of you must know.
Claim whatever is necessary to make the Lucia family feel the pain!
After all, I have completely offended them. The compromise is only on the surface.
I don’t believe they won’t want to get rid of me if they have the chance.”
“Another condition is to make Sophie Lucia apologize to me.”
“Regarding the ‘Silver Star flower new germination method’.”
