the last magic noble

Chapter 45 - Dale Hurley

In fact, since I went back to Hurley's house, I haven't mentioned another thing to Laura, that is, the conversation that Wende and Laura and we overheard outside the college's lounge stronghold .

After leaving the room, I happened to meet Niss Strong head-on.It's better to come early than coincidentally. Nice Strong saw me with an extremely unnatural expression.

I was about to go out when Nice Strong called me.

Nice looked around and said in a low voice, "Humer, there is something I want to talk to you about."

I thought about it, and followed Nice to a table in the corner.Niss took out a document and gave it to me. I didn't know what it was. Niss said: "Humer, from the very beginning, I objected to your entering Merlin Academy, especially to intervene in our confrontation with the evil mage army."

"why?"

"Because you have never lived in the magical world since you were a child. Although your family was once one of the three oldest families, it was destroyed overnight. You were sent to your uncle's house. Isn't it good to live in peace? But my teacher insisted that you Entering Merlin College, and let you enter the forefront of our confrontation with evil mages, this is an irresponsible behavior in itself, putting the survival of the entire magic world on you, a person who doesn't understand magic at all, isn't it? Messing around?"

What Nice said was blunt but not unreasonable, and I don't believe he said it to me out of personal emotion.

Then he opened the file and put it in front of me: "Look at this first."

The document in front of me is a series of surveillance and investigation reports on our Corinan family by the Association of Magicians. The document shows that since the establishment of the Association of Magicians, they have evaluated and monitored some ancient magic families. The family has always been the key monitoring target of the Magicians Association, and in my father's generation, he became the No. [-] key monitoring figure of the Magicians Association because of his unparalleled magical talent.And number two was his brother, my uncle, Colin Corinan.I had never heard of my father's younger brother, but no wonder I knew so little about our family.

Seeing the back, the signed object of the report came into my eyes, and my pupils dilated in surprise: Orvis Denton.This is Dale Hurley's wife, Laura's mother, she is a spy in charge of watching our house, a member of the Association of Wizards?My mind is in a mess.

Ness Strong took the document back and said: "The teacher and I have a big disagreement on how to treat you. I always think that you are the No. [-] target of evil mages, and absorbing you into us, yes It's a huge threat to us."

Nice's words made me understand the meaning of their conversation that I overheard outside the lounge stronghold that night.

He went on to say: "Hummer, I have been investigating the infiltration of the Magician's Association recently. I can only say that besides the teacher's wife, there are probably other people who have also been infiltrated by the Magician's Association. The purpose is to monitor and even eradicate them if necessary." You are the number one target of the evil mage."

"Eradicate me? Why? I haven't done anything wrong."

"Why are you so stupid." Niss said bitterly: "The Association of Magicians has always been a compromise-based appeasement policy towards evil mages. If you show your favor, the evil mages should stop causing trouble for them, and the buttocks of their officials and lords will be able to sit securely."

Having experienced so many things these days, I took a reserved attitude towards Nice’s words, and I calmly asked him: “How do you know this? How did you get this document?”

Nice smiled bitterly and said, "Good question, because I am the double-faced undercover agent that my teacher arranged to join the Association of Magicians."

Seeing that I didn't believe it, Niss took out a silver round tag from his pocket. There was nothing on the tag. I looked at Niss suspiciously. Niss said "Xian" silently, and the abbreviation of OIO appeared on the tag.

"Are you from OIO?"

Nice nodded: "Yes, I was recommended by Dean Dale Hurley to join the Association of Magicians. Later, I don't know how he works, and transferred me to the most secret operation and intelligence office in the Association of Magicians. That's OIO."

"However, how could he have the ability to send you undercover at the Magicians Association? Isn't the Magicians Association very afraid of magic families?"

Nice didn't answer, but looked at me instead. I immediately understood that this is actually very understandable, because Dale Hurley took refuge in the Association of Magicians and was able to arrange for one of his students to enter such a confidential department.

Seeing me in a daze, Nice said: "I also discovered this document recently, so I still feel that absorbing you is a great threat to us, and the teacher insists on doing this, I think, and the Association of Magicians Those meetings have a lot to do with how you are handled."

After finishing speaking, Niss got up and left. When he reached the door, Niss turned around and said, "If you have doubts about my identity or my words, you only need to investigate for yourself, and you will understand, Hunmo, I have no personal grudges against you. I just don't want you, a person who was originally kept out of the matter, to become a tool of some people and end up dying. You have to know that many things are not as simple as what you see on the surface."

After Nice left, I also left the stronghold in the lake. On the way back to Hurley’s castle, I was full of worries. It was almost late at night, and the surrounding of the castle was lit by a circle of torches. However, this castle became more and more unfamiliar to me. .What Nice said was like a thunderbolt hitting the deepest part of my heart. If Dale Hurley has joined the Association of Magicians as he said, it means that he is also working for tigers.Moreover, it is very likely that the changes in Merlin College also have their secret support.

"Hummer!" Laura's voice suddenly came from the front, she changed into a mage robe and waited for me at the gate of the castle.I walked all the way, thinking deeply, and didn't care at all.

Seeing Laura now, I also have mixed feelings in my heart.Laura saw that something was wrong with me, and asked me with concern: "What's wrong? Why are you so preoccupied?"

I looked at Laura and didn't know what to say to her. According to Nice, besides Laura's mother - Orvis Denton, someone else was infiltrated by the Association of Wizards. Who is it?Will it be Laura?

I shook my head, shirked that I was not feeling well, ignored Laura's concerns, and went straight back to my room to rest.

In the middle of the night in bed, I stared at the wooden ceiling, tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, got up and sat in front of the window, when it began to rain lightly outside, this ghostly weather in the south, the rain was so subdued, it was not pleasant at all.

"Turn the wind into a shape, turn life into a guide, and use your power to call my true name."

After the spell, Gaines appeared again, looked around, and lay down on the armchair angrily, and said, "Okay, tell me what happened to you again."

I looked at Gaines who didn’t know how to speak. Gaines turned a puff of smoke into two rabbits chasing in the air in his hands. I was fascinated. Gaines opened his hand, and the two rabbits played back and forth in front of me. .

I looked at the rabbit in front of me and said disappointedly, "Old Ancestor, do you think the Hurley family is trustworthy?"

This sentence aroused the interest of Gaines. He stood up and paced back and forth with great interest, and said leisurely: "The Hurley family has always been a very decent family, otherwise my teacher would not have given Mordred The sword is so important to them for safekeeping. Why do you ask so suddenly?"
