Wizard Earl

Chapter 1165 The Grand Finale (1)

Isabella didn't seem to care much about Connor's thanks. Gazing into the distance, she murmured, "Reyes fooled everyone..."

Upon hearing this, Connor's attention immediately turned to Isabella, and he was undoubtedly very interested in what she was about to say.

"After many of Reyes's undercover agents died, my father finally found out Reyes's identity. By the way, Connor Ferguson, you're so smart, you should have guessed long ago that the Duke is my father." Isabella turned to Connor Ferguson and said calmly.

During her time away from Frosinone, Isabella thought a lot after breaking through to become a first-level wizard. What surprised her most was that, for some reason, she began to miss the days when she and Connor were outwitting each other. As the daughter of a duke, she had enjoyed the best cultivation resources in the world since birth. She always seemed to be the one who laughed last, until she met Connor Ferguson. Connor was the first man to make her feel defeated.

It was because of her longing for Connor that Isabella, who shouldn't have gotten involved in Frosinone's affair, ultimately chose to go against her father's will and follow Adolf here, eventually appearing before Connor Ferguson.

Seeing that Isabella had taken the initiative to reveal her identity and lay her cards on the table, Connor was somewhat puzzled as to why Isabella would do this, but he naturally couldn't pretend to be stupid any longer. Under Isabella's gaze, he nodded. Seeing this, Isabella sighed slightly and then continued.

"Reyes is not Stefano Ferguson's illegitimate son as rumored, but he does have many connections with the Ferguson family. He was once a knight of your Ferguson family, and he had a close relationship with your father, Alfredo Ferguson. The reason he took you as his student was because he was entrusted by your father!"

"And Connor, your father was poisoned. The poisoner was a member of the Church of Storms. But Connor, you don't need to worry. Reyes has already avenged your father. The poisoner and his family, a total of twenty-seven people, were all executed by Reyes a month ago."

"As for the point that Connor is most concerned about, whether Reyes has any ulterior motives towards you, based on the information we have so far, it seems that he does not. Some of the information that has been circulating before was intentionally released by Reyes."

"Reyes has made too many enemies in the wizarding world. It will be difficult to hide your relationship with him. When Reyes' enemies can't deal with him, they will turn on you. So Reyes' purpose in doing this is to deliberately create a situation where the two of you are irreconcilable enemies, thereby confusing his enemies and preventing them from taking action against you, Connor."

"In fact, Reyes's move was indeed very clever, fooling everyone, including my father," Isabella said solemnly, her voice tinged with a hint of helplessness at the end.

Isabella's words were so informative that it took Connor more than ten minutes to process them all, and he shook his head with a wry smile.

Isabella's father was a duke, the elusive leader of a third-level wizarding society. Given the immense effort such a figure had invested, the credibility of his investigation was undoubtedly high. Connor simply never imagined that his long-standing suspicion of Reyes would end like this…

"Connor, I've told you the whole story. Are you planning to go and meet with your teacher?" Seeing that Connor had understood, Isabella asked him intently.

Connor remained silent for a moment before saying in a deep voice, "I don't know!"

To be honest, after hearing Isabella's words, even the usually calm and collected Connor Ferguson was in a state of confusion, completely unsure of what to do next, so he had no interest in considering Isabella's question.

Seeing Connor's expression, Isabella gritted her teeth and dropped another bombshell, saying, "Besides your situation, we were all tricked by Reyes in the Frosinone incident. His real target was something on Hummels, and if nothing unexpected happens, Reyes has already obtained it and eliminated Hummels!"

"Hummels is dead?" Connor asked incredulously.

Isabella sighed, shrugged, and replied:

"We've all been played by Reyes... I don't know what Reyes got, but I just contacted my father. He said that after Reyes gets that thing, it won't be long before he breaks through to become a level three wizard. That's why we want to capture you, Connor, and use you to control Reyes!"

Isabella paused here, gritted her teeth as she looked at Connor, and then continued:

"Although Reyes is about to become a Level 3 wizard, I, Connor, do not recommend that you reconcile with him. Reyes and my father co-founded the Secret Society and have worked together for decades. Although my father is a Level 3 wizard and his cultivation is above Reyes', he has always said that Reyes is too unpredictable. No one knows what he is thinking or what he is plotting..."

"Although it seems like everything has turned around now, and everything Reyes did was to protect you, Connor, it's like a crepe in Frosinone. Whether Reyes has any ulterior motives towards you or not, no one but Reyes himself can say for sure!"

"Not only that, although Reyes killed Hummels and obtained the key item from him to break through to become a level three wizard, he also greatly offended the Storm Church. Pope Ilsank was furious. If the Storm Church were not currently engaged in a fierce struggle with the hereditary nobles, he would definitely have personally dealt with Reyes."

"Even so, we've received information that Ilsank is preparing a joint operation with the Earth God Cult soon. Their aim is not only to eliminate Reyes, but also to eradicate all of Reyes's forces and supporters. Therefore, at this juncture, I think it's best for Connor to keep your distance from Reyes, lest you be targeted by the Storm Church as one of Reyes's remaining followers!" Isabella solemnly advised Connor.
