I have a wizarding world

Compared to Ruby's composure, the dead brown-haired apprentice's companion trembled with fear, not daring to make a sound.

But not making a sound doesn't mean they would be ignored.

"Are you his companions?" Ruby pointed at the corpse on the ground, turned his head, and looked at the several wizard apprentices beside him.

Hearing Ruby's words, the remaining five apprentices, including the injured one, immediately became nervous.

"Sir, we are willing to compensate!" The only senior apprentice among them stepped forward and lowered his head.

Ruby ignored him and instead looked at Irene and Phil, "What do you think?"

"Lord Ruby," Irene, despite her anger, was not unreasonable. The other side still had a senior apprentice and four intermediate apprentices. If they fought desperately, it would be difficult for her side to guarantee no damage.

Moreover, despite Ruby's seemingly righteous act of helping Irene out of the predicament, Fang Cheng had once told her to be careful of Ruby.

Compared to the unfamiliar Ruby, Irene obviously trusted Fang Cheng more.

"Okay!" Irene nodded, agreeing to the other party's compensation proposal.

"Hand over all the magic stones you have, and I'll spare your lives," Ruby said indifferently.

The senior apprentice's expression changed constantly. Relying on the strength of their team, they had extorted a sum of magic stones during their time in Daewo Town. Now, handing over all the magic stones at once would be heartbreaking for anyone.

But he hesitated for less than three seconds before nodding vigorously.

A moment later.

A spatial ring containing magic stones was handed over, and Irene took it.

"Hmph, still not leaving?"

"Yes, yes, yes, we'll leave right away." The senior apprentice led the four intermediate apprentices away in disgrace.

After seeing them leave, Irene handed the spatial ring to Ruby, "Lord Ruby, thank you for helping us out this time!"

Ruby glanced at the spatial ring in Irene's hand and said with a smile, "We are all apprentices of the High Tower, no need to be polite. As for the compensation, keep it yourself!"

Ruby didn't seem to care much about the compensation. If he knew how many magic stones were in the spatial ring, he would definitely regret it. This was a wealth that even a seed apprentice would be tempted by.

Irene didn't mind seeing Ruby refuse. The wealth of seed apprentices was a well-known fact in the High Tower.

Seeing Irene put away the spatial ring, Ruby extended an invitation to the two of them, "Since we've met, why don't we go to Devil's Canyon together this time?"

Irene's heart trembled slightly when she saw Ruby's smiling expression.

Phil beside her also remained silent.

He came to Devil's Canyon with Irene this time, and if he obtained the Devil's Blood, Irene promised to give him priority to use it. If he went with Ruby, the priority of the Devil's Blood would naturally not be his turn.

Not to mention that Ruby also had a senior apprentice, Wick, by his side.

Seeming to see that Irene was unwilling, Ruby smiled, "Since you two are unwilling, then I won't disturb you."

After speaking, he bid farewell to the two of them.

"Lord Irene?" Phil looked at Irene in confusion as he watched Ruby and Wick walk away.

At this time, Irene was also full of confusion. Did Ruby come just to help them out of the predicament?

Irene didn't believe this at all. Not to mention that the two of them hadn't encountered any life-threatening danger just now, even if they had, with the selfish nature of wizards, Ruby wouldn't care about their life or death.

"Don't worry about him," Irene turned her head, "Let's rest for a while and go to Devil's Canyon as soon as possible."

"Yes, Lord Irene!" Phil said respectfully.

...

"Lord Ruby, you are..."

Wick was also very confused by Ruby's behavior.

Ruby laughed and looked at Wick, "Have you heard of Crescent City?"

"Crescent City?" Wick was stunned, then reacted, "Are you talking about Lord Fang Cheng of the High Tower's Crescent City?"

Wick had naturally heard of Crescent City, especially the war that Crescent City had broken out with the surrounding two viscounts because of the magic stone mine. It had already spread within the noble circle. As the son of an earl, Wick naturally knew the whole thing.

In that war, it was said that the army of Crescent City had annihilated the Silver Knight Legion.

Wick also had some understanding of the strength of the Silver Knight Legion. Although it was not worth mentioning compared to the army under their family, that was because their family was powerful.

Even so, the Wick family could not achieve the feat of annihilating the Silver Knight Legion without any damage.

"You mean..."

Wick was still a little unclear.

Ruby glanced at him, turned his head, and looked at the Rum Bar he had just left, "The lord of Crescent City, Fang Cheng, has a close relationship with that Irene."

"You want to..."

"That's right!" Ruby laughed, "If she's here, Fang Cheng must be here too."

Ruby was quite sure. According to his investigation, Fang Cheng was initially recommended to Morton by Irene, and later, through Morton's introduction, became Mel's disciple.

If you said that Fang Cheng had nothing to do with Irene, Ruby wouldn't believe it even if you beat him to death.

It must be said that although Ruby guessed wrong about the relationship between Irene and Fang Cheng, he did guess correctly that Fang Cheng was in Daewo Town.

"I have already planted a mental mark on her. As long as she is within 10 kilometers of me, I can sense it."

Ruby's meaning was clear. Approaching Irene was just for the magic stone mine in Fang Cheng's hands.

Thinking of the magic stone mine, even Wick, with his family's wealth, couldn't help but get excited. This was an extremely large wealth, and its value was no less than the Devil's Blood.

If he could catch Fang Cheng...

As for whether Ruby was Fang Cheng's opponent, Wick had never doubted it. Not to mention that Fang Cheng was just an intermediate apprentice, even if he was a senior apprentice, what waves could he make in front of Ruby.

In addition, the army under Fang Cheng could not enter Devil's Canyon at all. Devil's Canyon was full of wraiths, and ordinary people would only die if they entered.

Without the protection of the army, why would Ruby be afraid of Fang Cheng.

"You mean... they will enter Devil's Canyon together."

"That's right!" Ruby nodded.

...

Fang Cheng didn't know that there was an old friend in Daewo Town who was thinking about him. Even if he knew, Fang Cheng wouldn't care. Not to mention the mecha troops under his command, even with his own strength, the gap between him and Ruby was not too big. Don't forget that the spell compatibility that Fang Cheng mastered was as high as 100%.

In other words, the power of Fang Cheng's spells was about three times stronger than that of ordinary senior apprentices!

The only thing Fang Cheng couldn't compare to Ruby was probably the strength of his own mental power, but it would be too naive for Ruby to want to kill Fang Cheng like he killed the previous senior apprentice.

Although Fang Cheng's mental power was not as strong as Ruby's, it was much stronger than the dead senior apprentice's, which was related to his constant use of perfect-grade wraith potions.

Ordinary senior apprentices did not have such a huge amount of mental power as him.

Not to mention that Fang Cheng also possessed the power armor, a great weapon!
