Wizards begin with Occlumency.

Is Chapter 263 wrong?

One against two?

No, it's one hundred against two.

By breaking through the data world and absorbing the countless strings of 0s and 1s that make up the data world, Iris completed her evolution.

The existence of the special ruins world as the origin of the Omnic Wizards in the Wizarding World makes perfect sense.

After the rainbow mark on her forehead digested the absorbed data stream, Iris was no longer troubled by her split personality.

On the contrary, they can still use the split personalities to help in combat, just like they are now.

These Iris, with their different makeup, clothing, and personalities, are all simulations constructed by Iris using the abilities she gained after digesting data streams.

However, the actions of the simulated entities are controlled by nearly a hundred different split personalities under the strict control of Iris's primary personality.

"Thank you, Link."

Iris murmured something, then led the charge, leading nearly a hundred split-personality Iris towards the serene Iris in the light blue floral dress and the Northern Beastmaster Iris.

Only the survivor can continue to be Iris?

Talk is useless, let's take action.

Let's see which Iris is the one who survives in the end.

Link, who was thanked by Iris, was now in a state of impotent rage.

The testing mechanism is like a scumbag, ruthless and heartless.

The moment Iris broke through the data world, she kicked Link out once again.

Moreover, this time it was extremely excessive; Link was kicked out of the special ruins world and into the boundless starry sky.

"Put on your armor!"

Link reacted quickly, activating his innate sorcery "Armor" and donning the Star Survival Mode Armor.

This is why it wasn't directly exposed to the various rays that are everywhere in the universe.

To make matters worse, the moment Link appeared, the Star Fortress, which had been preparing, made its move.

He fired a teleportation beam, intending to capture Link alive and obtain information.

Although Link had a feeling that even if he were captured alive by the Star Fortress, nothing bad would likely happen.

On the contrary, it is very likely that you can benefit from it.

However, Link chose to flee.

"Flandre".

He mentally called out to himself.

Flandre, who had a brief moment of telepathic connection, immediately entered the "small world" where the thunder was gradually subsiding from Link's sea of ​​consciousness, appearing at the source where lightning still lingered.

After being shocked by an electric shock, her hair stood on end and her face turned black. Flandre entered the enlarged black doorway on the right and arrived in the fairy world.

Before she could even land properly, Flandre summoned Link in the opposite direction.

The capture beam emitted by the Star Fortress just missed Link's body, striking nothing.

A loud, angry shout rang out from one of the subordinate agencies of the Supreme Council that was on duty aboard this special star fortress.

"Order all wizarding organizations to obtain detailed information about this person."

The head of the subordinate organization, a Level 6 Sage, gave a cold order with a dark face.

"Report."

A staff member stated, "The Rivosos Institute of Biology and Medicine has submitted a claim report to the Supreme Council, which includes detailed information about this person. The Supreme Council already forwarded the relevant report to us."

"Rivoss Academy?"

The sixth-level sage's expression stiffened slightly. After a moment of stunned silence, he said casually, "Since it has already been reported, let's not create any unnecessary complications."

"Yes."

The staff member responded loudly.

"Yes, you're very good, very thoughtful."

The person in charge, a Level 6 Sage, patted the young staff member on the shoulder and encouraged him, "You'll be stationed on that star fortress next month."

"Well……"

The young staff member was taken aback.

This……

Shouldn't it be a reward?

Why did you two turn on each other?

Is there anything he did wrong?

The Wizarding World.

West Coast, Tudor Region, Michel District.

A piece of news that shocked countless wizards suddenly came out.

The Rivoss Biomedical Academy recently submitted a report to the Supreme Council, formally "claiming" a special "exotic guest," hoping that the Supreme Council would fulfill its promise and allocate a batch of high-level resources.

The Supreme Council has formally accepted the report, begun its verification process, and has made some progress.

The news caused a huge uproar when it spread in the Michel district.

If the Supreme Council truly grants the request of the Rivosos Academy and allocates these high-level resources, then the advancement of the Great Sage of Rivosos will be unimpeded.

The two founders of Rivos Academy both became Level 8 Great Sages.

This improvement is quite significant.

The power structure of the Michel district is about to be reshuffled.

With its significantly enhanced high-end capabilities and the filling of its shortcomings, Rivosos Academy is bound to challenge the status of Michelle's Tower of Sages.

A fierce power struggle is about to unfold.

The magnificent and turbulent scene of conflict seems to be right before my eyes.

What left the four top wizarding organizations—Shadow City, Flame and Metal Merchants, White Tower Alliance, and Mesopotamian University (crossed out)—speechless was that even though Rivosos Academy had secured the high-level resources from the High Council, it still didn't stop its plundering activities.

It's as if it's saying, "Only children make choices; I want them all."

This attitude and style are extremely domineering.

The Flame and Metal Merchant Guild and the White Tower Alliance are arguably the two forces that are suffering the most.

They just used a textbook-perfect flanking maneuver to demonstrate their strength and prestige, issuing a warning and clarifying their stance.

And that's it?

You fucking have no morals and you launched a sneak attack.

If you're so capable, stop with these fancy tricks and let's fight head-on!

To outsiders, the University of Mesopotamia had the strongest reaction.

The school has "progressed" directly from a selective closure where students could leave but not enter, to a completely closed system where neither leaving nor entering is permitted.

Furthermore, the University of Mesopotamia has hinted that it will be shrinking its sphere of influence in the near future.

One month later, the entire Mesopotamian region was completely sealed off.

All wizarding organizations with commercial properties in the Mesopotamian region are advised to withdraw as soon as possible to avoid losses.

Given that the University of Mesopotamia disregarded the objections and negotiations of Rivosos College and forcibly took in a defector family from Rivosos College, such a strong reaction seems to be reasonable.

After all, any wizard who has lived long enough knows what kind of personality the Great Sage Rivo has.

The phrase "vengeful and vindictive" perfectly describes the great sage Rive.

Nearly 1,900 years ago, the Great Sage Michelle said something that "two Level 6 Sages want to establish a special zone, but have they considered their own capabilities?" This statement has been remembered by the Great Sage Rivo to this day.

During that time, I would also take every opportunity to disgust Sage Michel and his Tower.

Long-established wizarding organizations are well aware of the practices of Rivosos Academy.

Although their names contain the words "biology" and "medicine," and they are indeed skilled in biological cultivation and extraordinary medical treatment, at least five out of ten wizards trained by Rivosos Academy are keen on external expansion.

If the University of Mesopotamia doesn't want to face passionate retaliation from its former staunch allies, but is too ashamed to apologize, then its current decision to retreat into seclusion and avoid the limelight is undoubtedly the most sensible one.

It's just not very honorable.

Fairy world.

Paro Sage Legion Forward Base.

The medical unit's headquarters, the tent where Link stayed last time.

"How is my sister?"

Renee, having received a message from Sage Paro, rushed over and immediately asked Link about his well-being upon seeing him.

"It's a long story."

Link now knew that a month had passed since the attack on the rear camp of the desolate world.

The flow of time in the special ruins world was truly a pain for Link.

A month has passed, and the portal between the Fairy World and the rear camp of the Wasteland has not yet been repaired, so communication with the Wizarding World has not been severed.

Wizard Renee was well aware that the academy had done something so significant.

Upon learning from the academy's report that her own younger sister was actually the prophesied special "exotic guest," Wizard Renee was extremely shocked.

After her barely concealed elation, Wizard Renee began to worry again.

Even knowing that Iris is most likely out of danger, he is still very worried.

It was with this mindset that the wizard Renee suddenly received news that Link Grand, who had been caught in a time-space turbulence with Iris, had suddenly arrived alone in the fairy world.

She had heard Asander mention that Link Grand had a strange connection to the fairy world and possessed the ability to come to the fairy world at any time.

Since he came alone without Iris, something must have happened.

Therefore, the witch Renee appeared very anxious.

To make a long story short...

Renee glared fiercely at Link.

Asander Cornet, who was silently following behind Renee, gave Link a look, signaling him not to keep him in suspense.

Didn't you see how anxious Renee was?

Still keeping me in suspense? You want to get beaten up?

Sage Paro was not interested in this matter, so he left the space in the tent to the three of them and went out for a walk to clear his head.

His biggest worry right now is how to win Celine back.

Even though events like the joint attack by the Blazing Flame and Metal Merchants and the White Tower Alliance occurred over the past month,

Celine never showed him any concern.

It truly achieved a complete severance, without any hesitation or ambiguity.

Even when forming the pharmacy teaching and research group, they only took three newly trained students: Salia, Ella, and Tina.

We will no longer need the pharmacists and logistics personnel that were previously trained for the Sage of Paro.

Even some people, like Mr. Murphy, had their applications rejected outright.

Sage Paro initiated cross-dimensional communication several times, and although Sage Serene answered each time, the communication was no longer as enthusiastic as before.

Celine, who once had nothing but Paro in her heart, seems to have vanished forever.

He no longer initiated conversations, but merely gave half-hearted answers to the Sage Paro's questions.

His tone was also cold, with little emotional fluctuation.

The state he displayed was that he truly didn't want to care about anything related to Paro anymore.

All I want is to live my life well, develop my own power, and improve my strength, status, and position.

This made the Sage Paro's feelings extremely complicated.

Those who are favored are fearless, while those who cannot have are always restless.

Only after losing something do we realize how deep our feelings are.

Sage Paro considered several times putting aside his current affairs and rushing back to the Wizarding World to have a heart-to-heart talk with Celine, clear up the misunderstanding, and salvage their relationship.

Unfortunately, the entire Paro Sage Legion relied on him as their leader.

The Sage Paro must not be moved lightly.

Let alone returning to the Wizarding World, even if they are only a meter away from the forward base, the Royal Guard must accompany and protect them.

Just now, if there's any disturbance where Sage Paro is located, the entire legion will tense up.

"I really want to fight the Abyss Demon again."

Feeling depressed and unable to vent, Sage Paro was in great distress.

They were actually hoping for another wave of abyssal demons to besiege the fairy world.

That way, when he's in a bad mood, at least he'll have someone to vent to.

(Abyss Demon: You despicable wizard, what did I ever do to you?)

in the tent.

Link briefly recounted his "previous" experience, concluding by emphasizing, "When I was kicked out, I received a message."

"What information?"

The witch Renee immediately pressed for more information.

Link said:

"The passage is not so easy to open; there are three steps."

The first step is for Iris to pass all the tests and become the temporary ruler of the special ruins world.

I don't know what the other two steps are.

There are a total of nine tests.

When I was kicked out, Iris had just begun her second trial.

"Is it that troublesome?"

Even though he knew in his heart that passing the nine tests would make him the temporary master of the special ruins world.

For both Iris and the Clark family, it was a great bargain.

Renny the Wizard's instinctive reaction was still to complain that the nine trials were too many and too troublesome.

Upon hearing this, Link, mimicking Asander's habit, raised an eyebrow at him.

After being persuaded to resign by the captain of the guard, and after careful consideration, Asander decided to resign, and was no longer as frivolous as before.

He pursed his lips, gently patted the stunned wizard Renee, and then asked Link, "How long do you think it will take Iris to pass the test?"

"I really don't know."

Link shrugged. "I've done the best I can."

As he spoke, Link touched his hair, which had stood up from the shockwave of the ball lightning during the transit through the "small world" and he couldn't straighten it no matter what he did: "I also paid a great price to help Iris."

Well……

Flandre's meticulously maintained "little world" has now become a disaster-stricken area awaiting reconstruction.

All the carefully cultivated flowers and plants were destroyed in an instant.

Link's food and emergency supplies, except for those hidden deep underground in warehouses, were mostly destroyed.

A rough calculation shows the loss is approximately 200 standard level 2 magic stones.

200 standard level 2 magic stones is something an ordinary level 1 official wizard might not be able to earn even after a year of hard work.

Grand Pharmacy needs to sell 60 bottles of "One Will" potion to make up for the loss after deducting all costs and expenses.

"Thank you, Link."

Upon hearing this, Asander immediately expressed his sincere gratitude.

Afterwards, Asander said to Renee, "Let's go back first and let Link rest. He looks very tired."

"Um."

Wizard Renee nodded and left with Asander.

Just as he lifted the curtain and was about to step out of the tent, Asander suddenly paused and reminded him without turning around, "Your girlfriend has returned to the academy. Something happened to her. Remember to contact her."

This reminder prompted the wizard Renee to pinch Asander hard.

"Thanks."

Link thanked the loyal Asander, but didn't rush to contact Jasmine.

He is indeed very tired now, both physically and mentally exhausted.

Since being swept into the spacetime turbulence, Link has not rested except when he is unconscious.

Especially during the time I was trapped in Iris's dream, my mental and spiritual energy was greatly depleted.

I simply don't have the energy or strength to do anything else; all I want to do is sleep.

After instructing Flandre to be on guard, Link cleansed his body with witchcraft and then fell asleep.

When I woke up, two days had already passed.

Feeling refreshed, Link was astonished to discover that his mental energy had actually liquefied, and he had advanced to the level of a second-level wizard.

The liquefaction of mental energy is a gradual process; for an ordinary level one wizard, it usually takes two to three years just to take the first step in liquefaction.

Salia, Ella, and Tina have been out of advanced school for almost three years, but they haven't taken the first step yet, stuck at the level of first-level wizards, unable to make any progress.

The ball lightning facilitated the fourth evolution of the "small world," saving Link at least four to five years.

I didn't have time to marvel at my own changes and progress.

Under Little Flandre's supervision, Link took out his encrypted interdimensional communicator and sent a communication request to Jasmine.

After a while, the video call was finally connected.

Jasmine appeared on the screen with a white, jade-like silkworm on her head, grinning at Link and revealing a set of neat, white teeth that gleamed with a cold light.

After looking Link up and down, he made sure that Link wasn't missing any arms or legs.

He first nodded to Flandre, who was standing to the side with her hands on her hips, intently supervising Link.

Then he spoke, his voice gentle, and asked Link:

"Finished your honeymoon?"

I recommend a book called "I Have a True Friend".

One-Punch Wizard

Nonsensical, silly, just do whatever makes you happy.

Hey, this body-refining wizard can punch anyone with one punch, he's rock hard!
