Becoming a Wizard by Starting From the Mind Closure Technique

Chapter 617: Chapter 174: After the Wedding_3

A wedding invitation had been extended to Sage Cody by Assad just yesterday.

Like Sage Palo, Sage Cody hadn’t made an appearance, but had arranged to send a gift in his stead.

The sudden summons for an urgent meeting with Link today upon his return to his homeland must mean something was up.

After informing Jasmine, Assad, and Sandra of the situation, and giving Sage Selene a heads-up, Link went to the meeting alone.

This would be Link’s first time visiting Sage Cody’s residence.

Upon driving into the villa’s front yard, Link was surprised to see Peter Lionel’s carriage.

Immediately suspicious of this meeting, he called back Franda, instructing her to be ready to retreat into the Fairy World for a reverse summoning at any time.

“Got it, Master, don’t worry.”

After understanding the situation, Franda patted her small chest, assuring him.

Although the “Small World”‘s fourth evolution was somewhat “bloated”, it had seen a significant upgrade in the emergency mechanism of reverse summoning.

As long as Franda was prepared and generous with her power supply, Link could be reverse summoned to the Fairy World for protection within 0.1 seconds.

Adjusting his state, Link entered the living room of Wizard Cody’s villa.

“Aren’t you surprised?”

Before host, Sage Cody, had a chance to speak, visiting guest Peter Lionel took the lead to throw out a question.

“Surprised.”

Link responded honestly.

“Really?”

Peter Lionel gave a curt laugh, his presence suddenly surging out to overpower Link, “Aren’t you afraid I’ll kill you?”

Link’s response was simple, completely ignoring Peter Lionel’s intimidating aura, he said lightly, “if you can’t kill me instantly, then you can’t kill me at all.”

His words rendered Peter Lionel speechless.

As a Fourth Level Sage, killing a two-level witch shouldn’t be difficult.

However, not mentioning the fact that Link Grande was not an ordinary two-level witch.

Being in Sage Cody’s villa at this moment, Peter Lionel could not kill Link right under Sage Cody’s nose.

Having seen Zoran Lucia’s video of him ambushing Link, Peter Lionel knew Link had a peculiar escape method.

If he can’t kill in an instant, then he really can’t kill at all!

Link wasn’t bluffing.

Sage Cody intervened at this point: “Link, sit. Peter, put that away. If you want to communicate, you have to appear willing to communicate.”

Peter Lionel huffed coldly, his presence receding.

Link sat comfortably to the left of Cody, facing Peter Lionel across him, remaining silent.

Sage Cody raised his hand, rubbed his temples, and said, “I’ve arranged this meeting on behalf of another, as a mediator, to create an unbiased environment for the two of you to talk. Peter, if you have something to say, just say it, don’t waste everyone’s time. My corps has a pile of issues awaiting my attention on the front line.”

Peter Lionel’s face subtly shifted before he turned to Link and said, “I was also asked by someone to mediate another reconciliation between you and the Lucia family. What do you think? The Lucia family is prepared to offer …”

“No need.”

Link cut him off before he could hear what the Lucia family was prepared to offer, stating his position clearly, “I won’t fall into the same trap twice.”

Peter Lionel, taken aback, closed his mouth and turned to look at Sage Cody.

“No use looking at me, I just helped you invite Link here, I won’t help you persuade him.”

Sage Cody ignored Peter Lionel’s stare and said dismissively, “You guys are too self-centered. Know that not all people, not all things, will go according to your wishes.”

Then he turned to Link and said, “Since you’ve made up your mind, you should go. I can handle things here for you.”

Link nodded, looking straight into Peter Lionel’s eyes and said seriously, “The conflict between me and the Lucia family currently has nothing to do with the Lionel family. I hope it remains that way.”

Not caring about the impact his words had on Peter Lionel, Link turned and left.

“Was he threatening me?”

Peter Lionel repressed his anger, speaking coldly in a low tone.

Sage Cody retorted impatiently, “So what if he was? Does the Lionel family dare to antagonize the academy and take action against him?”

Peter Lionel was silenced.

Considering the importance Dean Frist attached to Link Grande currently, no family would dare act recklessly unless someone from Diomand Family agreed.

Didn’t you see how Sandra Diomand, the fourth generation darling, joined that ‘Freedom for All’?

If it wasn’t for Link Grande already having a girlfriend he was deeply in love with.Update by n0vgo .c0

Who knows how many people would think the Diomand Family wanted to take Link Grande as a son-in-law.

“Alright, I’ve done my part, you can leave now.”

Sage Cody waved his hand, bluntly giving Peter Lionel his marching orders, his tone full of impatience.

The Lionel family was one of the forces that blocked his path to becoming a sage in the past.

If the person who asked him to intervene hadn’t done him a favor before, he would’ve been reluctant to play this thankless role as a mediator.

Luckily, it seemed that Link Grande didn’t assume he was colluding with the Lionel Family based on this.

If he had, all his previous investments would have gone to waste, which would be a real pity!

After leaving Wizard Cody’s villa, Link immediately sensed something amiss. He turned around and noticed a somewhat familiar figure in the corner to his left.

After thoroughly checking for traps, Link slowly walked over.

He knew no one would be foolish enough to make trouble in the North District!

“What’s up?”

Looking at Hawk Lucia, who was heavily disguised, Link asked expressionlessly.

“No… Nothing.”

Hawk had been wanting to speak to Link, but upon encountering him, suddenly didn’t know what to say.

What could he say?

“If you have something to say, say it. I don’t have much time.”

Link decided to give Hawk, one of the few Lucias he found tolerable, a chance.

“Thank you.”

Stammering a bit, Hawk gritted his teeth and said, “Zoran has exiled himself, there is no more Lucia, from now on there is only the Archie family. Also, the mixed corps which was formed by the elite forces of the two military branches of the former Lucia family, has now completely fallen under Sage Cody’s…”

Link gave a glance to Hawk who was speaking incoherently and said a sentence without paying any more attention to Hawk Lucia, whose world had experienced drastic changes and no longer possessed his past splendor.

“The issue between me and Zoran, has nothing to do with the Archie family.

You can take my message back.

Someday, between Zoran and me, only one can remain alive.

Where I stand, he shall not!”
