A minute later, Connor recovered from the excitement of his bottleneck loosening and fell into deep thought. He had to admit that Marguerite had given him a lot of information.
First of all, Marguerite had killed Old Victor. With Old Victor's death, there was no doubt that the Secret Society in Loen was without a leader. Furthermore, Reyes was in Bernabeu, and due to some matters, he couldn't leave Bernabeu for a short period of time. From this, it could be seen that the Secret Society's lack of a leader in Loen wouldn't be resolved in a short period of time.
This made Connor waver about his decision to leave Loen with Varga. The reason why Connor and Varga chose to leave Loen was that they had fallen out with the Secret Society at that time. If they continued to stay in Loen, Old Victor would most likely kill them all. In addition, the Ferguson family in Flosinone City might have something that Connor was interested in. Therefore, Connor decided to leave Loen with Varga.
But now, with Old Victor's death, the situation had taken a 180-degree turn. With the fall of Emosson and Tusam, the Secret Society in Loen was only left with four advanced Sorcerer-Apprentices: Varga, Roberto, Martina, and Old Victor. Now that Martina was killed by Old Victor, Varga was on his side, and Old Victor was also killed by Martina. Now, the Secret Society in Loen was only left with one advanced Sorcerer-Apprentice, Roberto!
Although the Secret Society in Loen had a few intermediate Sorcerer-Apprentices other than Roberto, as long as Connor was willing, Connor could join forces with Varga. The two of them, as advanced Sorcerer-Apprentices, could kill this group of people quickly and send them to accompany Old Victor!
Thinking of this, Connor began to analyze the pros and cons in his mind. After a while, Connor shook his head and rejected the idea of continuing to stay in Loen.
With the death of Old Victor, the Secret Society's power in Loen had suffered a huge blow. Although he and Varga seemed to have a slight advantage by joining forces, in reality, the Secret Society's power in Loen didn't only consist of Old Victor and his group. After all, the Church of the Storm's bishop in Loen, Edward, was an undercover agent of the Secret Society in the Church of the Storm.
Although the local tyrant, Edward, was restricted by Langley, who was nominally in charge of all the Arbiters in Loen, Edward had countless subordinates in Loen. In addition, he was a veteran official Sorcerer. According to the information that Reyes had left in the crystal ball, if he didn't follow his instructions and leave Loen, he would very likely get Edward to attack him and Varga. Moreover, now that Marguerite was about to escape, the Church of the Storm's internal information no longer provided him with insurance, when the time came, Edward would probably only need to move his fingers to annihilate him and Varga!
Therefore, the most important thing now was to leave Loen and break through to become an official Sorcerer. Although after breaking through to become an official Sorcerer, he would step into a trap set by Reyes, only after becoming an official Sorcerer would he have some ability to protect himself in front of Reyes. He wouldn't be at the mercy of Reyes!
After figuring out the situation, Connor wanted to find Marguerite. He had some things he wanted to get answers from Marguerite, but when he looked at the time, he realized that only a few hours had passed. Marguerite, who had just recovered, might be digesting the potion that Varga had given her. Connor couldn't help but temporarily suppress his thoughts and meditate to recover.
At noon the next day, Connor was immersed in cultivation in the quiet room. Suddenly, he felt something in his heart. He slowly stopped his cultivation and opened his eyes.
At this moment, at the door of Connor's room, Varga and Marguerite unexpectedly met. Perhaps both of them understood that the other party had an unusual relationship with Connor, so neither of them spoke first and looked at each other. For a moment, the atmosphere between the two of them became a little strange.
"Hello, you're Varga, right? I'm Marguerite, thank you for saving me! "
Looking at the woman in front of her who had delicate facial features and a petite figure that was seventy to eighty percent similar to the woman in the oil painting that Martina had given her, Marguerite was very clear that this person was Varga. She was also the pharmacist behind Connor that she had always wanted to know. Perhaps considering that Varga had saved her life, Marguerite smiled and took the initiative to break the awkward atmosphere. She took the initiative to thank Varga.
Hearing this woman named "Marguerite" take the initiative to thank him, although Varga knew that this woman who was more beautiful than him had an unusual relationship with Connor and was most likely his rival in love, after all, he didn't hit a smiling person. Moreover, they were now in front of Connor's door, so it wasn't worthwhile to quarrel with her. Therefore, he suppressed the disgust in his heart and forced a smile on his charming face.
"It's alright, you're Connor's good friend. He has always mentioned you to me. He said that you've provided him with a lot of alchemy assistance and are a very good partner. This time, since you need help, Connor and I should lend you a hand!"
When Marguerite heard Varga's unkind words and used the tone of "Connor's woman", Marguerite's gaze froze and a breath of resentment rose in her heart. Of course, Marguerite wasn't a pushover and immediately prepared to retaliate.
However, before Marguerite could open her mouth, Connor, who had already sensed that Marguerite and Varga were about to quarrel, braced himself and decisively opened the door. He said in an embarrassed tone, "What a coincidence, Marguerite and Varga are both here!"
When the door opened and Connor walked out, Varga acted as if he wanted to declare his sovereignty. He directly held Connor's arm in front of Marguerite and moved closer to Connor. He then smiled at Marguerite who was standing at the side.
Sensing Varga's action, Connor didn't know why, but under Marguerite's gaze, Connor subconsciously wanted to avoid it. However, after thinking about it, he didn't reject Varga's intimacy.
Varga, who was holding Connor's arm, had a smile on her face. However, in Marguerite's eyes, Varga's smile and her action of holding Connor's arm were filled with provocation. Without a doubt, this made Marguerite even angrier.
