Wizard Earl

The information Connor received from Varga about the Moro Society undoubtedly piqued his interest in and made him wary of them. Given Varga's description of the Moro Society's decisive and ruthless style, the second attack he had been worried about was likely to happen!

Thinking of this, Connor couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation for what kind of news Margaret would bring him. He had a feeling that the news Margaret brought would definitely not disappoint him...

After giving Varga a few words of advice to prioritize the greater good, Varga set off to bring Margaret, who had come to visit, to the cave to meet Connor.

An hour later, Connor Ferguson, who was sitting in the cave, opened his eyes and looked towards the cave entrance. The next second, Varga and Margaret walked up to Connor. Looking at Connor Ferguson, who was sitting on the ground, pale and looking like he had just recovered from a serious illness, Margaret's eyes immediately became concerned.

Sensing the concern and care in Margaret's eyes, Connor's angular face broke into a smile, and he said softly to Margaret, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I'll be back to normal in a few days!"

After speaking, Connor struck a strong pose towards Margaret. Seeing this, Varga, walking beside Margaret, slightly pursed her lips, but said nothing. As Connor's attending physician, she knew his condition best. Although there was nothing seriously wrong, a full recovery wouldn't be as simple as Connor saying, "in a few days." It would require at least a long time...

After offering a few more words of comfort to Margaret, Connor finally got to the point of the meeting, asking her, "Margaret, do you know much about the Moro Society?"

When Connor asked about this, Margaret parted her lips slightly, ready to speak her mind, but before she could finish, she seemed to remember something and didn't continue. She simply lowered her head and coughed lightly.

Seeing Margaret's behavior, Varga knew exactly what she meant. A cold glint flashed in her beautiful eyes, but remembering Connor's repeated admonitions to "put the bigger picture first," Varga, about to erupt, suppressed her anger and prepared to turn and leave. However, to Varga's surprise, just as she turned, Connor, right in front of Margaret, grasped her soft, boneless hand and solemnly said to her:

"Margaret, I trust both you and Varga equally! If you trust me, then you can trust Varga just as much!"

Although Connor's voice wasn't loud, the firmness in his words caused Margaret's expression to change slightly, while Varga, seeing Connor's reaction, felt a surge of emotion in her eyes...

Seeing Connor's insistence, Margaret hesitated for a moment before giving in and saying, "I've received word that someone wants Moro to kill you!"

Although the information Margaret revealed was explosive enough, Connor wasn't surprised. After all, he had already anticipated that Moro's trouble-making was mostly due to someone else's orders. So Connor simply nodded to Margaret, signaling her to continue.

Seeing that Connor didn't seem surprised, Margaret was somewhat disappointed. However, after carefully considering her words, she said, "Because the Moro Society is an organization that is extremely secretive about its personnel movements and identities, even within the Storm Church, there is very little information about the Moro Society. So, as of now, I don't know who instructed the Moro Society to kill you. However, my sources are investigating this matter, and I believe we will have some leads soon."

At the end, Margaret deliberately emphasized her words, subtly hinting at something to Connor. After finishing her statement, Margaret glanced at Connor and then said slowly and mysteriously, "Connor, although we don't yet know who ordered Moro to target you, their reasons are not hard to guess..."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Connor, who was initially disappointed that he didn't know who was behind his attack, suddenly became interested when he heard Margaret say this, and stared intently at Margaret.

Margaret seemed to be enjoying herself, with Connor's gaze fixed on her. After a moment's hesitation, she continued, "Connor, you might not know this, but Reyes has disappeared since he and Conte, disguised as Jovic, pulled off their heist at Mensaka Manor. Nobody knows where they are or what they're planning next!"

"So some people are trying to lure Reyes out by attacking you!" Margaret said in a low voice, but her tone was very firm, and she seemed to believe her guess.

Upon hearing Margaret's conjecture, Connor's eyes lit up. He pondered for a while before slowly asking Margaret for confirmation: "So, according to you, my attack by the Moro Society was because I was implicated by Reyes? And was the Moro Society's attack on me instructed by the Church of Storms?"

"That's possible. Although the Church and dark wizards are irreconcilable enemies, some people in the Church may still have some connections with the dark wizards in secret. And Connor, your identity is that of the Earl of Ferguson, a member of the hereditary nobility. At this time, it would be very troublesome if the Church were to directly attack you. So it is indeed possible that some people in the Church want to use someone else to do their dirty work and have instructed Moro to attack you." Margaret first confirmed Connor's guess, then changed her tone and said very seriously:

"Connor, what I want to tell you is that it's true the Church of Storms wants to deal with Reyes, but those who want to deal with Reyes aren't necessarily from the Church of Storms. Professor Reyes of the Secret Society has been a powerful figure in the wizarding world for so many years, and he has countless enemies, both overt and covert..."

After Margaret finished speaking, Connor seemed to realize something and nodded knowingly. Seeing the perfect understanding between Connor and Margaret, Varga, standing nearby, couldn't contain herself any longer and directly said to Margaret, "Margaret, if you have anyone you suspect, just say so!"
