The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 323 Invitation to the Secret Realm of Life

"How can this be?"

"Are you a five-ring wizard? Why have I never seen you before!"

There was fear in Herman's eyes and his face was full of disbelief.

After hearing his exclamation, everyone around him was shocked.

In the entire Blue Sea, except for the president of the strongest six-ring wizard, there are only a handful of five-ring wizards.

And now, the wizard in front of him turned out to be a five-ring wizard!
There was an elusive shock in the air, as if time had stopped at this moment.

The vendors and customers all turned their heads, their eyes fixed on David as if illuminated by a strong light. The expressions on their faces varied, but all revealed shock and awe.

Several young wizards looked at each other, their mouths slightly open, and for a moment they didn't even have time to react.

They had heard how rare Five-Ring Wizards were in the entire Blue Sea, and that each of them wielded powerful powers like a god.

And now, this young man turned out to be a five-ring wizard, which completely overturned their understanding of strength and status.

An old vendor covered his mouth and murmured softly, "Is this... really the legendary five-ring wizard? I remember hearing rumors about him before, but I've never seen him in person."

The surprise in his eyes could no longer be concealed, and he was full of awe for David's identity.

The people around began to whisper, and some people whispered: "Who is he? Why have we never heard of his name?"

On the other hand, some people looked at David with admiration and even envy: "He is so young and already a five-ring wizard. This is a real talent!"

Herman's face turned pale at this moment, and his previous confidence and pride disappeared in an instant.

He knew that he was facing not just an ordinary opponent, but a powerful being with extraordinary strength and unlimited potential.

The fear and shame in his heart mixed together and surged like a tide, making it almost unbearable for him.

Narcissus stood aside. Although she already knew David's strength, she couldn't help but feel her heart beating faster at this moment.

She could feel the shock of the people around her, the feeling of all eyes fixed on them, some excitement, but also some worry.

David looked at Herman calmly, with a slight smile on his face. "So, what are you going to do?"

Hermann was filled with astonishment. He tried hard to take back the magic power in his body, but found that he was already in a state of powerful suppression and could not break free no matter what.

The uneasiness in his heart gradually spread. Facing this young and mysterious opponent, he felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness.

"Who are you?" Hermann asked with difficulty, with a tremor in his voice.

At this moment, Narcissus stepped forward gently, "This Lord David is the branch president of our Wizarding Union."

When Hermann heard this, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva secretly, and a trace of despair flashed through his heart.

Chapter president?
Only at this moment did he realize what a huge force he was facing.

The influence of the Wizarding Union in the Blue Sea is unquestionable, and David, as the branch president, controls countless resources and powerful forces.

At this moment, he could no longer face the young man in front of him with his usual arrogance and confidence.

"Wizard Union...Branch President..." Hermann muttered to himself, with a hint of fear and uneasiness in his voice.

The people around him became increasingly silent, their eyes focused on David, as if they were expecting his next decision.

The vendors and customers all felt the tense atmosphere in the air and waited with bated breath.

Daffodil smiled slightly, she knew David's character well.

He is not the kind of person who likes to show off his strength. This low-key attitude makes people feel that he is even more terrifying.

"Herman, you should understand." David said slowly, his voice neither hurried nor slow, but with irresistible majesty, "Do you think you can oppress the innocent at will without being punished?"

Hermann felt bitter in his heart; this was almost an ending he had never expected.

Not long after, higher-level law enforcers showed up and took Hermann and his nephew away directly. He would definitely punish them severely next.

David stood there and watched Herman being taken away by law enforcement officers.

"You are worthy of being Lord David!" Narcissus walked to David, admiration flashing in her eyes.

"It's just what I should do," David smiled. "Some things can't go on any longer."

The crowd around slowly dispersed. They were still frightened by what had just happened, but they were more curious and respectful of David.

"Do you want to eat something?" David asked suddenly, "I'll treat you."

Narcissus was stunned for a moment, then she smiled sweetly: "Of course! Since coming here, I haven't had the chance to taste the food here!"

So the two of them walked towards a nearby restaurant together.

The restaurant looks simple but warm.

After entering the door, all kinds of aromas hit you in the face, making you salivate.

"Let's sit here."

Narcissus pointed to a table by the window.

Here you can overlook the magnificent scenery of the blue sea and the sunset. After sitting down, the two ordered a few signature dishes.

"The seafood here is especially fresh." Narcissus said excitedly, "I heard that people here fish fresh ingredients from the sea every day."

"Why don't you recommend it? I've never been to this place." David responded with a smile.

After the meal was served, the two enjoyed the delicious meal in a relaxed and pleasant conversation, while the sunset outside gradually sank, casting a golden glow over the entire restaurant.

At this time, Narcissus suddenly asked: "Lord David, are you here to support other battlefields?"

David nodded when he heard this. There was nothing to hide.

Narcissus heard this and showed a serious expression on her face, "Then can you please go to the Secret Realm of Life to provide support?"

David was slightly stunned. He never expected that Narcissus would take the initiative to make such a request.

He put down the knife and fork in his hand and looked at her seriously: "Secret Realm of Life? The war here shouldn't be fierce, why do you want me to go there to support?"

Narcissus took a deep breath, as if preparing for the next words: "Recently, the changes in the Secret Realm of Life have become more and more serious, affecting the safety of the surrounding villages."

"Many strong men have gone to investigate, but all have returned empty-handed. We need powerful people to help solve this problem, and you... are the force we need most."

David thought about her words. He knew that the Secret Realm of Life was a place full of mystery and danger, rich in resources, but also harboured countless dangers.

"Do you know what the situation is there?" he asked.

Narcissus nodded: "I have investigated the situation nearby." "The ancient creatures and mental changes there have begun to affect the surrounding environment. Not only are the villagers threatened, but other wizards are also beginning to be affected. Some have even lost their minds."

David is fascinated by the ancient creature in Daffodil's mouth.

For him, the life wizard school in the secret realm of life itself is worth exploring.

Whether it is the blood wizard training system, the blood knight, or even the witch's innate power, they are all related to the life wizard school.

David's curiosity grew as he explored the life wizard school.

An inexplicable impulse surged in his heart, as if the secret realm of life was opening a brand new door to him.

"This is indeed an opportunity for exploration," David said finally, "but we need to be fully prepared to ensure that we can face any possible crisis. Can you provide more information about the secret realm of life? For example, what specific characteristics of the mutations there are?"

Narcissus nodded and said seriously: "During my last reconnaissance, I found that people in the surrounding villages began to behave strangely. Some people lost interest in the things around them, while others became abnormally excited and violent. We suspect that this is related to the awakening of some ancient power, and that power seems to be affecting their mental state."

"Ancient power..." David fell into deep thought.

He thought of his own studies and research; there was a certain relationship between ancient creatures and wizards that was difficult to understand directly, yet closely connected.

And those creatures may contain rich and powerful knowledge and abilities.

In addition, the only six-ring female wizard in this world is in the Secret Realm of Life.

If he could practice with this six-ring female wizard, there was a high chance that his strength would reach the seven-ring.

Seven rings.

This is a realm that no wizard in today's wizarding world has ever been able to touch.

In addition to the Life Witch, who is a six-ring wizard, the president of the Hundred Flowers Wizard Organization is also at the peak of the fifth ring.

Compared to the blue sea today, the secret realm of life will definitely bring him much greater benefits.

“I think we should not only deal with these mental changes, but also investigate the reasons behind them.”

He looked up at the daffodils. "If necessary, I will even try to communicate with those ancient creatures."

Daffodil's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Are you really willing to do this? It will be a huge adventure! However, if we can successfully communicate and understand those creatures, maybe we can find a way to solve the problem."

"Of course." David smiled. "I will try my best. However, we must be careful. Especially when dealing with unknown forces, we must not take it lightly."

"Okay, then let's get ready. We can call some other trusted wizards to act together." Narcissus suggested.

As the two were discussing their plans, a waiter brought over a sumptuous meal of fresh seafood.

The two began to enjoy the delicious food while discussing the next strategy.

David mentioned some of his spells, as well as his experiences on past missions.

Daffodil shared some of the adventure stories she had participated in, including successful resolution of crises and painful lessons from mistakes.

The wind gradually cooled, but the enthusiasm of the two people remained high.

"You know, sometimes I feel excited when facing the unknown world." Narcissus said while eating, "The fun of exploration makes me willing to take risks."

"That's true." David agreed. He also felt a long-lost sense of freshness.

“How can we grow without these challenges?”

After finishing their meal, they decided to go back and rest so as to be fully prepared for the next task.

Under the cover of night, the two said goodbye to each other as they parted.

Although David had a good impression of Narcissus, the four-ring female wizard, she could not bring him much improvement in strength after all.

Not long after, David returned to the castle.

Inside the castle, witches are studying new wizard knowledge and trying to improve their strength.

Seeing David coming back, Leah greeted him with a smile, "Master."

David smiled and nodded, hugged Cynthia who ran up happily, and then took out the collected resources.

"These are some materials I collected recently." David placed several thick scrolls and some crystal clear magic gems on the table.

"Especially these ancient documents, which involve the relationship between the secrets of life and ancient organisms. I think this will be helpful for our research."

Liya came over excitedly and looked at the scrolls carefully: "These materials look very valuable! Where did you find them?"

"From a wizard in the Secret Realm of Life." David replied, "There seem to be some ruins related to the Secret Realm of Life there."

Cynthia pointed at one of the scrolls with her little hand, her eyes sparkling with curiosity: "What is this? It looks mysterious!"

"This is a research article about ancient organisms, describing how they may have influenced their surrounding environment and the psychological state of organisms." David smiled slightly. "I hope this can help us understand everything that is happening in the secret realm of life."

He then recounted his conversation with Narcissus.

After learning that they were going to the secret realm of life, the witches all showed great interest.

Just then, a witch came over. It was the dragon-born wizard Isabel.

"I heard that you are going to the secret realm of life. Can I join you?" she asked straight to the point, her eyes flashing with anticipation.

"Of course," David nodded in agreement, "We have all seen your fighting ability."

Isabel smiled happily: "Thank you! I believe we can overcome any difficulties!"

When night falls, the castle is brightly lit, while outside it is quiet.

Inside the castle at night, warm lights shine softly through the windows, reflecting on the walls, as if covering the entire space with a golden coat.

David and several witches gathered in the center of the hall, the music was soft and rhythmic.

"Come on! David!" Leah called softly, and she slightly twirled her skirt, which sparkled as brightly as stars under the night sky.

"You should come and dance too! We are going to have a great time tonight!"

David looked at their bright smiles and couldn't help feeling happy.

He walked forward, took Leah into his arms, and spun with her. The two of them seemed to be led by the music, dancing lightly in the warmth and joy.

"Everyone!" Cynthia couldn't help but join in.

As the tempo of the music quickened, the joyful atmosphere became more intense, with whispers, laughter, singing and footsteps interweaving together.
