The president of the Sorcerer's Association shuddered when he heard the voice, and he almost dropped the cigarette in his hand.
A woman with short silver hair in leather boots was standing outside the door of his office. D 'Adrion could not help but take a deep breath when he saw her. "No way, Olivia. Even you have fallen so low that you have to work for the temple?"
Although Theodore and his men graduated from the major Academy of Magic, they all had families behind them. They were nobles first, mages second. But Olivia was different. She was the trump card of the St. Roland Academy of Magic, the disciple of Abus, and also a senior commissioner of the Sorcerer's Association. She answered directly to the council, and her position was even higher than D 'Adrion's. If she helped the temple attack the president of the Gudilesi City branch, it would be a very serious matter.
But as soon as Olivia spoke, D 'Adrion knew that she and Theodore and his men had different intentions tonight.
"You and your brothers have had enough fun, right? It's time to send His Holiness Edmund Richard Holstein back to the Royal College of Magic and Magic," D 'Adrion said, raising his eyebrows.
D 'Adrion raised his eyebrows. "Commissioner Oravian is really swift and decisive. I thought you would at least reminisce with me first. By the way, is this your idea or that old guy Arbus' idea?"
"No, this is an order from the council, President D 'Adrion." Olivia did not beat around the bush. She pulled out a document from her arms. "From now on, I will temporarily replace you as the manager of all the mages in Gudilesi City. By the way, congratulations on your marriage with Lilith. She is a good girl. I hope you can treat her well."
Anyway, I'm just a small branch president. I'll do whatever you big shots ask me to do. I just don't know if the council's order will work on my lovely junior. Finally, thank you for your congratulations. I'll take it as I've received your gift that never existed. "
"Now is not the time to be willful. I know that you and Richard Holstein have made a lot of preparations to deal with tonight's situation, but now that I've stripped you of your position as the president, you can no longer command the mages in the city. Admit it, your plan has failed. If you really care about him, you should let me take him away from here." After a pause, she added, "I came in a hurry this time. I'll make it up to you next time."
"Aiyo, so that's what the council is planning. Speaking of which, aren't you guys too sinister? Tsk tsk."
D 'Adrion finally confirmed that Olivia's appearance tonight was not a coincidence. After all, the south was the base camp of the mages. The temple might be able to fool the civilians and ordinary nobles by making such a big scene, but it certainly could not fool the eyes of the higher-ups of the council.
However, the purpose of the two sides was not in conflict. The goal of the church tonight was to capture Lolo, while the Sorcerers Association also wanted to take this opportunity to find Rob, who had run away from the Royal College of Magic and Magic for two years. So, in the end, the council decided to turn a blind eye to what happened in Gudilesi City tonight, and Abus's departure was a clear indication of their attitude.
Obviously, both sides knew about the relationship between him and Rob. The temple sent Theodore and his gang to stop him, but the Sorcerers Association was even more cunning. They even used the church. At this critical moment, Olivia suddenly appeared in front of him and took away his authority as the president, which was tantamount to taking drastic measures to destroy the two's plan.
If the future Supreme Magus Your Honor still wanted to save Lolo, he would have to bow down to Olivia, who was now in charge of Gudilesi City, and at the cost of returning to the Royal College of Magic and Magic, the latter would take action.
After figuring this out, D 'Adrion could not help but applaud the woman in front of him. "Amazing! Amazing! You're indeed Abus's student. After so many years, you really haven't changed at all."
Obviously, Olivia had already grasped the situation, but when she saw the man in front of her, a trace of uneasiness rose in her heart.
D 'Adrion opened the drawer and took out a bottle of incense and two dirty glasses from it. He wiped them with his sleeve casually. "Come on, to celebrate you defeating me again, let's have a toast."
At this time, Olivia also received a message from her subordinate. The sorceress looked at the small note in her hand, and her expression finally changed. "Where is Lilith now?"
"Don't you like to guess my actions? Why don't you take a guess?" D 'Adrion poured champagne into two glasses and said leisurely.
Olivia's face darkened. "Openly going against the council? Have you ever thought about what will happen to Lilith?"
"No, no one is going against the council. Vice President Lilith is just carrying out my order. Who asked the council to only appear now?"
"Then, on behalf of the council, I now order you to terminate Vice President Lilith's operation."
"It's too late. I ordered her to cut off all contact with the outside world during the operation. So now no one, including me, can contact her." D 'Adrion shrugged and picked up a glass of champagne, looking very regretful.
"Even if Lilith can pick up the girl, how long can they hide in the city without the help of the Association of Sorcerers? Also, don't forget that His Holiness Atlead, Richard, and Holstein are still in danger. Tonight, besides the people of the Temple of Sorcerers, many assassins of alien races have also sneaked into Gudilesi University City. They …"
"There's no plan at all," D 'Adrion interrupted Olivia and put out the cigarette in his other hand on the desk.
"Huh?"
"On the dock, at the city gate, and the underground black market … Except for Lilith, even me, these arrangements in these places are for you to see." D 'Adrion grinned. "So, there's no plan at all tonight."
"How is that possible?" Olivia cried out involuntarily. No plan meant that Rob would have to face the temple, the Ferdinand family, the alien killers, and almost the entire underground forces in the south alone tonight.
