Wizards begin with Occlumency.

I didn't ask a single question throughout the entire process.

Link, along with Jasmine, followed all of Dean Forrest's arrangements.

After arriving in his destined world and settling Grand and his wife in, Dean Forrest left in a hurry without even having time to explain to Link.

Clearly, this sudden media offensive from the Tower of Sages by Michelle caught Dean Forrest completely off guard.

Such a huge workload, yet the secrecy was handled so well.

The fact that the Rivoss Academy had not heard a single sound beforehand was extremely strange.

The most serious thing is not that Link Grand's name is posted on various forums, but that Rivosos Academy has been kept so well in the dark.

As the de facto highest administrator of Rivoss College, Dean Forrest naturally had to deal with this matter urgently.

Being able to think of Link and Jasmine and promptly place them in her own destiny world shows that she values ​​Link highly.

"Link, is this really serious?"

They say pregnancy makes you stupid for three years, and Jasmine feels like her IQ isn't up to par right now.

They have apparently lost the ability to assess the situation.

"Don't worry."

Link offered another word of comfort, then sat down calmly in his chair.

In the rush of the incident, Dean Forrest simply settled Link and Molly in an empty villa without giving any further instructions.

His immediate task did not allow him to send a clone to greet, appease Link and Molly, or provide an explanation.

Therefore, it was the Spirit Realm that was responsible for further entertaining Link and Jasmine.

Flandre sensed a kindred spirit within her and longed to emerge from Link's mental world to have a conversation with him.

However, she is currently extremely busy and has no time.

I'll have to do it next time.

Last time, after the Grand Sage Legion conquered the Water World, they fought a battle against two armies of Abyss Demons.

Link charged ahead, slaying water demons and power demons of the same level, and used a move that unleashed an ultimate high-temperature light wave similar to a solar helium flash.

The amber-like world of immortal martial arts actually showed signs of melting under the light waves.

Everything else about the world of consciousness is good, except that it's not real enough.

Seeing the opportunity to find herself another cozy little home where she could decorate however she wanted, Flandre grabbed Cornelia and plunged headlong into the great task of melting amber.

In Link's sea of ​​consciousness, helium flashes are happening every day now.

If this had happened in Link's previous life, Earth would never have been able to wander; it would have been gone long ago.

Link was happy to let Flandre and Cornelia have fun.

If you succeed, you can get your destined world for free; if you fail, you can eliminate the wrong answer.

But that's all for the future.

Now, Link needs to calm down and think carefully about how to deal with the media offensive launched by Michelle's Tower of Sages.

After this commotion, Link Grande became a target.

As long as one remains in the Wizarding World and within its sphere of influence, trouble is inevitable.

Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary danger, he either had to hide away and never show his face again, or he had to go far away to another place and not be able to return for a while.

As for a complete overhaul or something, that's not very realistic.

Wizards have plenty of ways to see through disguises.

However, neither hiding nor fleeing was what Link wanted to choose.

He had figured out the purpose behind Michel's Tower of Great Sages' actions.

Setting up targets is just a means to an end; the real goal is to force Link to leave "another place" as soon as possible and go to a parallel universe.

As for the reasons for doing this, Link has guesses about what the Tower of the Great Sage Michelle, or rather the Great Sage Michelle himself, might gain, but he cannot be completely certain.

"That old Michelle, really..."

The main campus of Rivosos Academy.

After a long silence between the two great sages, Great Sage Rivo broke the silence and sighed, "Without careful planning, this has happened. He really is that Michel who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals."

Great Sage Soth stared directly at Great Sage Rivo, and said sarcastically, "Ha! As if you hadn't heard anything beforehand."

"what……"

Even in front of his wife, the Great Sage Rivo still had some self-respect. His actions had been exposed, and he gave an embarrassed smile, saying, "I had heard some rumors, but I didn't expect him to make such a big deal out of it."

"Oh!"

The Great Sage Soth gave another cold laugh, but said nothing more.

Wizards are human too, and naturally there are those who are close to them and those who are distant from them.

There's no need to push away your closest loved ones just because you insist on some simple principles.

"What are your next steps?"

After a while, the Great Sage Soth asked curiously, "Did you really send Link Grand to a parallel universe, just as Michelle wanted?"

"No."

Great Sage Rivo shook his head. "I'd rather kill Michelle than let the old man have his way! But Link Grande going to a parallel universe is inevitable, it's only a matter of time."

"That's true."

The great sage Soth agreed with this statement.

After so much probing and observation, the higher-ups in the wizarding world, the eighth-level sages and above, have come to realize a rather unexpected fact.

That is, Iris Clark is really just a special "outsider".

Her role is to open a channel connecting the two universes, serving as a medium for early communication between them.

The one who was truly valued by the civilization in that parallel universe was Link Grand!

Otherwise, Link Grand would not have received special treatment from the four Celestial Masters, who held a high position in the Heavenly Court of that civilization.

That Zhang Tianshi even specially sent his outstanding descendant, Xu Jing Tianshi, to forge a connection with him.

The Wizarding World civilization needs help to regain its former glory and completely defeat its mortal enemy, the Gods' World civilization.

That civilization of immortals and gods also needs assistance to postpone or even prevent the arrival of the end times.

The civilizations of wizards and immortals were a perfect match.

Reaching an agreement and securing assistance from the West is only a matter of time.

The key lies in how to cooperate, how to distribute the benefits, and how to share the risks.

This requires one or even several capable individuals who can be trusted by both parties to play a role.

Iris Clarke is certainly a possibility, but the Celestial Civilization values ​​Link Grande more.

The great sages Rivo and Soth discussed this matter, each offering their opinions and speculating on the reasons.

"Well……"

Opening his left hand, looking at the two chess pieces, one black and one white, in his palm, the Great Sage Rivo suddenly thought of the new tea that Link Grand hadn't produced in a long time, and guessed, "Perhaps it's because Iris Clark is determined to sever ties with her past lives, while Link Grand has always kept his past lives in his heart."

"That's possible."

The Great Sage Soth thought about it and agreed with this view.

Forgetting is betrayal.

With such favoritism, there's naturally less concern about harming the other party's interests.

Dean Forrest did not hear the conversation between the two great sages.

He was sitting face to face with Cowell Ludwell, both of them with icy expressions, neither of them in a hurry to speak.

Ms. Lisandra was not here; instead, she led a group that heavily surrounded the delegation to the Tower of the Great Sage Michel.

Under Lady Lysander's command, the city of Rivosos has sealed off this void.

As time went by, many people forgot that Lissandra was the one most favored by the two great sages in the Diomand family.

Lissandra can do many things as she pleases, her confidence stemming from the favor of the two great sages.

Over the years, under Dean Forrest's guidance, her temper has become much more restrained and changed, but she still retains the reckless and unrestrained nature she had in her youth.

Michelle's actions at the Great Sage's Tower have thoroughly enraged Lysander.

In addition, seven days ago, Cowell Ludwell, through some unknown means, stirred up her emotions, causing her to lose her composure.

With both old and new grudges combined, Lissandra acted rashly and led her to surround the delegation.

If it weren't for concerns about the reputation of Rivoss Academy, Lisandra would have already launched an attack, instead of merely surrounding it.

"Forrest, are you just going to stand by and watch?"

In the conference hall, Cowell Ludwell broke the silence, scoffing, "It doesn't matter if the mission members die, the reputation of Rivosos Academy is the most important thing."

"Otherwise what?"

Dean Forrest's face suddenly broke into an extremely bright smile. "Could it be that what you want to see is me leading my men to kill your entire delegation?"

"You know what I'm talking about!"

Cowell's face darkened, and he said in a cold voice, "No matter what, surrounding the delegation is extremely inappropriate. Does Rivosos Academy want to become the target of everyone's criticism?"

"Hasn't it already happened?"

Dean Forrest's eyes sharpened. "Now that you've started, don't expect it to end so easily."

Prior to this wave of public opinion attacks targeting specific individuals, the impact and challenges launched by Rivoss College against the Tower of the Great Sage Michel were all within the rules of the game.

There was no violation of the rules.

However, while Michelle's actions at the Great Sage's Tower achieved their goal, they also harmed both the enemy and herself, and violated the rules.

The entire wizarding world now knows three things:

First, Link Grand is worth a district;

Second, the Great Sage Tower of Michel should abandon the Michel district;

Third, the Tower of the Great Sage of Michel was forced into this situation by the Rivosos Academy.

The third point is particularly problematic. If it becomes a deeply ingrained perception throughout the wizarding world, the reputation of Rivosos Academy could be completely ruined.

Above the districts are the major districts, above the major districts are the five realms, and above the five realms is the Supreme Council.

So, how does the ruler of the Tudor region, the ninth-rank Tudor Archsage, view the Rivosos Academy?

How does the ruler of the West Coast, the elemental wizard saint, view the Rivosos Academy?

Insubordination is something that those in power and those at the top despise!

Cowell Ludwell fell silent again.

In fact, he did not approve of this move either.

However, his objections, as well as those of other management, were all ineffective.

Because this was a decision made by the great sage Michel himself.

They even used many personal connections to make this happen.

Seeing this, Dean Forrest was quite disheartened and recalled a word he had heard from Link by chance.

He got up and walked outside, instructing Lysander to lift the siege and expel the Michelle Sage's Tower delegation from the country.

There's no need to get your hands dirty.

Before leaving the conference hall completely, Dean Forrest uttered a sentence that immediately broke Cowell's guard.

"You're just an employee after all."

With a gloomy face, Cowell Ludwell, along with his expelled delegation, left the city of Rivosos in a depressed mood and returned to the Tower of the Great Sage Michel.

The phrase "working class" has an unparalleled magic, and it has always lingered in Cowell's mind.

I can't forget it no matter what.

The more I think about it, the angrier I get.

For some reason, I suddenly remembered what Lisandra had said when she led the delegation to the Tower of the Great Sage Michel.

Besides the members of the Michel family, which other level six sage can be promoted to level seven great sage?

No!

In a fit of anger, Cowell left a resignation letter, packed his bags, and ran away.

This move was extremely flashy and astonishing.

Dean Forrest, who facilitated this matter through bizarre means, did not continue to monitor the changes.

He has arrived at the High Council and, through the proper procedures, has obtained the opportunity to face the Elementalist Wizard Saint alone.

This kind of opportunity is extremely rare.

The Rivoss Academy is currently in the spotlight, and every word and action it takes attracts considerable attention.

The entire wizarding world is paying close attention to the outcome of this duel.

We eagerly await Rivoss College's response to Michelle's Tower of Sages.

The fifteen-minute duel ended quickly.

The curiosity of the wizarding world has been fully gathered.

The Supreme Council did not keep anything secret and, with the consent of the Elemental Wizard Saint, announced the results of this duel.

The Rivosos Academy applied to replace the Great Sage Tower of Michel as the new ruler of the Michel District, and after successfully replacing it, changed the district name to "Rivosos District".

The ruler of the West Coast, the Elemental Wizard Saint, agreed to Forrest Diomand's request, and the other four saints did not object.

The wizarding world was in an uproar.

Rivoss Academy is so awesome!

You, Michelle Sage's Tower, are trying to exploit the Michelle district, which you've already decided to abandon?

it is good.

I'll see this through to the end.

We also want to prevent you from developing in a parallel universe with peace of mind and complete power!

Replacement is no joke; it requires a real battle to determine the winner.

The storm is brewing, and it's happening right before our eyes.

While living a secluded life in Dean Forrest's own world, Jasmine is not completely cut off from the outside world.

Over the next few months, the war between Rivosos Academy and the Tower of the Great Sage of Michelle, under the "presiding" of the Supreme Council, raged on.

The war between the two top powers is no small-scale conflict; it's unlikely to end immediately.

Probing, espionage, counter-espionage, surprise attacks, ambushes, counter-ambushes—all sorts of schemes and conflicts abound.

The Grand Sage Legion was naturally not going to be idle.

Under Link's leadership, they won several impressive battles.

Link Grand's reputation grew during the war.

Because some busybodies on the forums dubbed this war the "Battle for Link Grand".

The debate over whether Link Grand was worth a Michel district at one point was more compelling than the outcome of the war.

It was against this backdrop that Jasmine, in her tenth month of pregnancy, experienced her water breaking.

Labor is imminent. (End of Chapter)
