Wizard Immortality

Chapter 25 Terrible Scheming丨Cracks
The life of a wizard is long and arduous.

a year.

With a flick of the finger.

this day.

As usual, Evelya walked into Vic's laboratory with a blank expression, carrying barbecue and the task given to her by her family.

Over the past year, she had tried to seduce Vic several times, under the guidance of some experienced women in the tribe.

But the alchemist, intoxicated with knowledge and experiments, remained indifferent.

Ivilia didn't quite understand what the alchemist who had specially chosen her to serve him was thinking.

even.

She stood in front of the mirror more than once and doubted her life.

first time.

She still has some unrealistic fantasies about the future.

She hopes to leave the alchemist's bloodline for the family as soon as possible, at the cost of leaving the family and running away with her lover, Mather.

I hope Mather can think of some way to help her get it.

I hope Mather can stand up and take her away from here overnight.
Even if they will die.

But it has developed to this day.

She was completely numb.

The one who is deeply in love is always submissive.

Willing to sacrifice for the family is childish and ridiculous.

Any unrealistic fantasies she had about the future had been completely shattered.

Even the eyes that were once full of vitality gradually lost their luster.

The short life span of mortals is like a meteor in the night sky. Even if no body is left after falling to the ground, they still want to burn themselves with all their strength.

But in Vic's heart.

Only knowledge is eternal.

Only eternal life can illuminate the endless darkness and unknown.

He doesn't care what mortals, whose lives are as short as candlelight, think or feel.

Moreover.

The wizard is shrewd and cunning.

Wizards who are trapped in the quagmire of reproductive desire are rare treasures in the entire wizarding world.

Vic's time is of the utmost value.

When he decided to join the Bell family, Knight Mather was a chess piece he had deployed early on to deal with any possible situations.

Choose Avila.

What mattered to him was the close relationship between the woman and the knight, Mather.

Because it's profitable.

just now.

Vic decided it was about time.

He put down the test tube, glanced at the silent, numb-looking red-haired girl, and spoke to her for the first time in a year.

"Avilia, call Mather in."

Hearing Vic's cold and hoarse voice, the girl raised her head with empty eyes.

She didn't ask any more questions and turned and left.

Not long after.

Mather, who had been waiting outside the laboratory, walked quickly into the room.

Compared to the glamorous look when Vic first saw the young knight in the trading market.

Now Mather is like a lost dog, covered in dust and listless.

even.

He dared not look his beloved in the eye.

When he saw Vic, he bowed his head slightly to show respect, kept a distance from Evelynia, and stood aside in silence.

The red-haired girl saw this scene.

His eyes were complicated and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.

Vic wasn't surprised.

These changes in Mather's character were all part of his plan.

The laboratory environment is very messy.

The light is dim.

A sickening stench filled the air, the smell of corpse flowers.

Vic stood beside the test bench, looking down at him with a cold and ruthless voice, and said, "You are in pain, Mather, but the root cause is not me."

Avila and Mather knew what Vic was talking about.

They come from a wizard family.

Knowing how terrifying the observation abilities of these powerful beings are.

The love between the two of them could not be hidden from them.

Ivilia was still thinking and getting angry. Wasn't it all caused by you, the alchemist? But she didn't dare to speak out.

Mather just stood there dejectedly, without any intention of resisting, with a look of resignation on his face.

but.

Vic was very satisfied with his condition.

People like this don't have to worry about backlash when using it.

Vic took out three soul stones and threw them in front of Mather. The facts described in his hoarse voice were more cruel than his words.

“This world is a world where the strong prey on the weak.

Being weak is not a sin.

Ignorance and lack of ambition are.

The woman named Avila and this bag of soul stones are given to you as rewards."

At first, Mercer and Avila thought they had misheard.

The two looked at each other with strange expressions.

There was a thoughtful look in the depths of Ivilia's eyes.

Mather looked puzzled and asked, "Master Archie, I don't understand."

Vic stood with his hands behind his back. The dim light from above cast shadows on his ugly face.

Although Vic has modified his bones and muscles, he is short in stature.

But in the eyes of these two people, the elusive spiritual magnetic field was as tall and majestic as the stars in the universe, and could not be looked at directly.

Vic's voice was icy cold as he said, "If you want something, you have to pay for it, love, wealth, freedom.

Whatever you want, I can satisfy you.

But you need to do one thing for me.”

This is why Vic kept Mather around.

Because he needs to understand the current situation of the Bell family, what is happening and what is going to happen.

During the one year he had been with the Bell family.

Vic, immersed in knowledge and experiments, turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside.

In order to keep him stable, the Bell family must hide some things.

If you want to get accurate intelligence, you need someone who is easy to control and has no ulterior motives.

The original candidate was the knight Mather, but the appearance of Evelynia made the plan simpler.

A woman that the family has high hopes for.

It's easy to get some confidential information.

If Mather did it, Vic would inevitably have to spend more time thinking about it.

Subsequently.

Vic made his request to Avila.

As a price, after the matter is accomplished, he will pay a certain amount of soul stones to the Bell family, buy out the two people, and leave here.

After Mather learned of Vic's true intention of keeping him by his side.

All of a sudden.

My body was covered in cold sweat, as if I had fallen into an icy cave.

He knew that there would be no stupid wizards who could become senior apprentices.

But Vic's terrifyingly deep scheming made him deeply afraid.

Like a poisonous snake wrapped around your neck.

This is an instinctive fear of being manipulated by others.

As knights and blood descendants of the Bell family, not betraying the family is the bottom line for their survival.

Even if betrayal flees.

Other families and wizarding organizations in the same area will not take them in.

Everyone hates betrayers.

But in the face of freedom and love.

Faced with the huge benefits promised by Vic.

The courage buried in Mather's heart suddenly surged up. He suddenly grabbed Ivilia's wrist and said regardless, "This is our chance! Yara! Follow Master Archie and leave this place with me.

Then start a new life!"

In his excitement, Mather forgot his duties and even called Evelyn by her childhood nickname.

Time can gradually reveal a person's true self.

Although Evelya had noticed something, she still couldn't recognize the person she loved.

A moment of hesitation.

She agreed.

Before leaving.

Ivilia looked back, not at Mather, but at Vic, her brown eyes flickering, and said, "Lord Archie, I need a definite promise."

Vic is thoughtful.

The subtle rift between the man and woman was clearly visible to him.

His ugly face smiled sarcastically and said, "Your freedom is worthless to me, young man."
