Mages Are Too OP - Chapter 118

Chapter 118: 118

Roland knew very well that Claus’s death would cause a certain reaction in Delpon City .

 But he was wrong . It wasn’t a certain reaction, but a huge reaction . To some extent, it was even more unbelievable than Hawk and Link’s feat .

 The reason was simple . Even though Claus was only a magic apprentice, he was still young with a high chance of becoming an official Mage in the future .

 Secondly, Claus was also a member of the Magic Tower . No matter what, he was Roland’s subordinate and, especially now that Aldo obviously didn’t want to manage matters himself, he was a de facto administrator of the Tower .

 Moreover, Claus, who was also good at interacting with outside factions, was considered a capable person . He should have been well-liked by Roland .

 But to everyone’s surprise, Roland had actually killed Claus himself .

 Just because Claus had killed over a dozen lowly girls?

 1Almost everyone who had some power felt that Roland was crazy .

 A promising future spellcaster, his right-hand man, had been frozen into an ice sculpture just because he had killed several cheap female peasants . There was no mercy .

 2Such a decisive execution made all the nobles feel chilled .

 They could understand the madness of Hawk and Link . After all, they were killing outsiders .

 It was the first time they had seen someone like Roland take action on a promising subordinate .

 1Sick!

 John shared the same sentiments . He slammed the table in his study and, with a whoosh, he said in extreme exasperation, “I was wondering why beggars kept wandering outside my door a few months ago . So that punk was suspecting me . Dogsh*t, isn’t he looking down on me? Am I the kind of person who would harbor designs on ugly peasant girls?”

 2In front of him, John’s sister laughed as she rolled on the bench .

 John was a proud person . He felt that it was needless to say that girls that deserved him were beautiful . They had to be noble as well . Just touching a lowly commoner made him feel like he was tainting his family’s honor .

 The girl who had finally stopped laughing straightened her body and said, “I think that the Golden Sons are quite interesting . They don’t seem to treat us as nobles . I’ve interacted with that Betta a few times, and I have a strange feeling . You can call him proud, but he’s able to have a good time with the peasants . But if you don’t call him proud, he shows no fear when speaking to me . He even dares mock my style of dressing . ”

 “I also think that your outfit doesn’t look good,” John said helplessly . “Who wears a black long-sleeved gown matched with light green clothes underneath? It looks strange . ”

 2“As long as I like it, it’s fine . It’s not like you’re the one wearing it . ”

 2“All right, as you wish . ” John faced his sister with an exasperated attitude . “Are you really going to the capital?”

 “Right . I plan on visiting the Aristotle family . After all, Joanna and I arranged this half a year ago . ”

 John looked out of the window and said casually, “It’s good to establish connections with the Aristotles . Their devil-training skills are very good . If we can get some magical knowledge from them, we’ll make a killing . ”

 “It’s difficult . ”

 “Yes, it’s very difficult . ” John let out a long sigh . “Betta seems to have gone to the capital too . ”

 “How do you know?” the girl unconsciously asked .

 When she saw her brother’s strange gaze, she immediately covered her face in embarrassment .

 So that’s the case!

 Damn it, these Golden Sons are really annoying . They either steal my limelight or view me as though I’m a perverted beggar that can’t be a chooser . Now, they are even stealing my cute baby sister .

 3He even thought of the Golden Son named Betta appearing in front of him after half a year or so with his sister in his arms . With an annoying expression, he would say, “Your sister tastes like a donut . ”

 6Damn it, I really want to beat him up .

 1Seeing the strange expression on her brother’s face, the girl ran off with her hands clasped over her face .

 After letting out a sigh, John called for the butler and said, “Prepare four invitations for me and give them to the four Golden Sons in the city . You must speak to them with a respectful attitude . Tell them that we hope to invite them as guests in my castle tonight . This is a private banquet . Apart from the five of us, no one else will participate . We will discuss the safety of Delpon City . ”

 1The butler immediately bowed and left .

 At this moment, Roland was browsing the discussion forums . He had already uploaded the video of the girls’ disappearance on the forum yesterday, which had caused quite a stir .

 And now, he was looking at a post by a gamer named Carl:

 “Let’s change this rotten and backward world . ”

 1The gist of it was that the gamers should gather themselves and occupy an unclaimed territory . They would take in wandering slaves to form a small country . They could use the systems of modern society to abolish slavery and the aristocracy . Ideals such as equality were to become the mainstream .

 4This thread was already the most popular thread, and it was even pinned by the forum moderator .

 The players on this thread were divided into three factions .

 The first group was in agreement . They liked this idea and were already excitedly discussing the first steps of the plan .

 The second faction was naturally against the idea, and there were all sorts of strange reasons for their objection .

 Some people just wanted to experience this primitive system, while others wanted to study it; therefore, they didn’t want the system to disappear . There were also those who simply wanted to enjoy the life of being “lofty” in a system of slavery . After all, professional players had more standing among the people of this world, especially spellcasters .

 Some people simply thought that the person who came up with this plan was power-hungry .

 The third faction was made up of spectators . They said that if the players were stronger, they would help the NPCs . If the players were too weak, they would work together .

 1The moment this faction spoke, they were immediately met with ridicule: Do you think you are the successor of Mohism1?

 Roland frowned as he read most of the replies . Then he left behind five words in a huge, bold font .

 “THE TIMING IS NOT RIGHT!”

 2After closing the discussion forum, Roland went to the saber arts club . During breakfast, the Qi siblings sized him up, their expressions strange .

 After breakfast, Qi Shaoqiu called Roland to the empty space behind the shed . He took out a cigarette and lit it .

 The morning in the south was hot, but Qi Shaoqiu’s words were cold . “You saw blood yesterday?”

 1Roland was stunned . “What blood?”

 “I can feel the murderous intent on you . ” Qi Shaoqiu’s expression was serious . “Coupled with that warlike aura, you look fierce . I’m not teaching you how to use a blade now because I do not want you to think too highly of yourself and end up battling evil . Tell me, what did you do yesterday?”

Killing intent… I see .

 Roland thought of Claus .

 “I don’t know what to say, but I can only tell you that I didn’t do anything against the law . ”

 Qi Shaoqiu looked at Roland and was silent for a while . Then, he smiled and said, “You didn’t do anything against the law, but was able to produce a trace of murderous intent? I know what’s going on . It’s no wonder that chick, Jin Wenwen, is thinking of ways to stop you . In that case, I’ll get my little sister to teach you Daoism’s Nourishment of Life . ”
