Chapter 125 - Andoine
It was as though that hoarse voice carried something magical, as though an invisible hand came and grabbed onto the throat of Aeron. His recitation came to an abrupt stop, while the raging magical elements he’d created also vanished immediately.
The leaves that flew up into the air also fell back gently to the ground. The forest regained its serenity and peacefulness.
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound.
They saw a frail-looking elder walking out from the bushes ahead. He was a senior aged around 60 or 70, and had a face full of wrinkles. The grayish-white robe he wore was crumpled and dirty like it was not washed for decades. The moment he emerged from the thicket, everyone could realize a heavy smell of medication coming from him…
As the old man got closer, Lin Li’s eyes lit up.
“How are you, did you get injured?” the elder asked with great concern.
Lin Li was touched by the warmth and care the old man showered him with. He smiled, and replied, “I was just shocked…”
“He wouldn’t! I could vouch for him!” Macklin cried as he shot Aeron a deadly glare. He could not understand how a great man like Aldwin had such a foolish son.
Apart from being the student of Andoine, Felic was also the hope of Alanna Guild of Magic. The magical weapons this young man could forge had a direct impact on the mausoleum of Highlord Osric.
Even an old man like me doesn’t even bear to speak a harsh word to him, and you tried to attack him? If you ever dare to kill Felic, your father, Aldwin would beat you to death… “How are you going to vouch for him?”
“Calm down and listen to me…” said Macklin as he led Andoine away to a secluded corner. Then, he told him about Lin Li’s talent in forging, as well as the bet between the Guild of Magic and the Adventurers Guild.
Their conversation continued for at least 10 minutes…
“In short, you don’t need to worry—today’s only an accident. I, Macklin, would absolutely not allow anyone to hurt Felic. Aldwin, too, would never allow Aeron to be so reckless!” Macklin concluded his speech by assuring Andoine again.
“Mid-Middle-grade Blacksmith?” Andoine shot Lin Li a glance from afar. He was amazed. How would there be a second person as freakish as his student?
He only knew that Felic was a one-of-a-kind prodigy specializing in the field of Magic, as well as a master in pharmaceutical knowledge… No, even a middle-grade Blacksmith as well?
What else could be a challenge to that fella?!
Nothing?! Oh, of course, let’s not mention giving birth…
