The Wizarding Age

Wizard world, northern witch territory.

Naio Valley.

The origin tower of the dark witch clan - the location of the black secret realm.

Everything in the valley is still so dark and deep, all the animals and plants are shrouded in a layer of hazy and illusory strange shadows, gray and lifeless.

And on the top of the towering origin tower, a fierce quarrel is going on.

In a dim and lightless secret room, three black figures are coldly confronting each other, with a look of swords drawn.

"Cersi, although you are the chief of the clan, it does not mean that you have all the power in the clan!" An extremely old and hoarse voice in the black shadow on the left said: "What's the matter with Shani? Where did the shadow orb go? These... If you don't give me an explanation today, our sisters in the "Anbu" will no longer obey the orders of the headquarters!"

And on the right, an equally hoarse voice sounded at the right time.

"Yes, Cersei, a 4th-level sister is gone just like that, you have to give us an explanation!"

The black figure surrounded by the two people was quite tall and slender, but her tone was particularly cold and fierce.

"Two elders, I was the one who gave Shani the order, and I was the one who asked her to participate in the Arcane Empire mission. If you have any questions, just come to me!"

Seeing Cersei's determination, the two elderly dark witch elders couldn't help but soften their tone.

Finally, the elder of the "Anbu" on the left spoke again.

"You are our leader, and you naturally have the power to mobilize all the witches and resources in the Black Secret Realm. But we want to know, with Shani's strength, why did she fall in that Morian plane? You sent her...really just to carry out a simple infiltration mission?"

Cersei was silent for a moment.

"I sent Shani to participate in this mission. On the surface, it was for the Arcane Empire, but in fact... it was to take the opportunity to snipe one of the participants in the mission."

"Who?"

"Grimm, a 4th-level fire wizard from Sandi Tallin!"

The two witch elders looked at each other and nodded silently. It was obvious that they were not unfamiliar with this Grimm.

"That Grimm is just a newly promoted fire wizard, but Shani has reached the intermediate level of level 4. In addition, you gave her the shadow orb before departure. Why did the mission fail? Did she die at the hands of those arcanists or at the hands of Grimm?"

Cersi could not help but remain silent again. After a moment, she said sadly: "The Morian plane has been completely destroyed. Even if we send Elsa the wise to sneak in to find the cause of death at this time, I am afraid it will be impossible to get any results."

"Then let Shani die in vain? Besides, the shadow orb did not return smoothly, which will have an extremely adverse impact on the subsequent integration of our black secret realm and the shadow kingdom over there. What are you going to do?"

"Shani's death must be related to that Grimm. I will seek revenge on him. The shadow orb must be on him, and I will take it back at that time!" Cersi said coldly.

"Under what pretext? Don't forget that Grimm is now an elder of the Sanditalin Association. Without any evidence, it is difficult for us to deal with him. Do you want to cause a direct conflict between the dark witches and the Sanditalin Association?" The Anbu elder interrupted her coldly.

"Let's find evidence first!" Another witch elder also sighed: "Isn't there a wizard from the Silver Alliance in their group? Start with him first and see if we can get direct evidence that Grimm killed Shani. With evidence, we can propose a motion at the Witch Council and mobilize the power of the entire Northland witches to kill Grimm. Presumably, those old sly guys in the Sanditalin Association don't dare to confront our entire Northland witches, right?"

"I understand! I will arrange for someone to contact that Silver Alliance wizard right away..." Sissi thought about it and quickly nodded in agreement.

"In addition, what you did this time was really reckless!" The witch elder couldn't help but feel heartbroken again: "Without knowing the true strength of the other party, you sent your sisters out, and also lost the sacred object of the clan, the Shadow Orb. Before the next clan meeting, if you haven't found the Shadow Orb back, I will suggest to Lady Malvina that you be deprived of your status as clan leader!"

"Second! I also agree with Elder Jacquedo's proposal. Cersei, you have been in the position of clan leader for too long, and it's time to change someone. Otherwise, the entire dark witch headquarters will become a one-man show for your Ankara clan?"

As a 4th-level dark witch, Cersei is the witch leader and clan leader, and naturally has the greatest management authority over all witches and family resources.

And the elder of the dark department, Claudina, holds the power of the dark witch assassination department. There are elite witches selected from the dark witch headquarters who are good at assassination and sneak attacks. As the leader of the dark department, Claudina's power is not much less than that of Cersei.

Jacquesto, the elder of the Beast Tribe, was responsible for the preparation and training of shadow beasts, and specially built a powerful shadow army for the dark witches. He naturally had great power.

The deceased Shani was an elder of the Witch Tribe, and was mainly responsible for the research of shadow witchcraft and the training of new witches. Since Shani was also born in the Ankara clan and was a descendant of the chief of the Cersei clan, she was obedient to the chief, which led to this unexpected disaster.

As for the Lady Malvina mentioned by Elder Jacquedo, she is a 6th-level dark witch. Since she is stationed somewhere outside the domain all year round, the affairs of dark witches in the wizard world can only be remotely managed through the clan affairs meeting held every hundred years.

Hearing the threats from the two elders, the leader Cersei could not help but turn pale, but she could do nothing.

At the 4th level, even as the leader and clan leader, her restraint on them is not as great as imagined. The death of a 4th-level witch can be a big deal or a small deal. Even if the other party reports it to the clan affairs meeting, Cersei is unlikely to be implicated.

But the shadow orb is different!

The 5th-level shadow orb is a dark holy object handed down by the clan's great witch, and it plays an irreplaceable and important role in the dark witch clan. If it is lost from her hands, even if Lady Malvina loves her, she may not be able to keep her position and identity as the clan leader.

The next clan meeting will be held in seven years, which means that the other party only has seven years to deal with this difficult matter!

"I know what to do. Don't worry, all problems will be solved before the clan meeting!"

After simply throwing a few harsh words, Cersei turned into a cloud of mist and merged into the shadow behind her, disappearing from the secret room without a trace.

The two witch elders looked at each other, sighed, and left one after another.

…………

The wizard world, the distant east coast.

This is the headquarters of the great wizard association, and it is also the ideal hometown that thousands of wizards yearn for.

There are dense wizard towers, a vast and rich wizard kingdom, a large number of wizard groups, and countless wizard resources...

Compared with the other major forces, the Wizard Association is the only orthodox wizard organization in the wizard world. The Silver Alliance is more like a federation of a group of business-minded esoteric wizards and mechanical wizards, while the Northland Witches are a group of witch organizations that are more clingy, more exclusive, and have ancient bloodline inheritance.

As for the Sanditalin Association, it is too loose and has no effective constraints on high-level wizards. It can only be barely classified as a second-rate wizard organization and cannot be compared with the three major organizations.

On the territory of the Wizard Association, the most famous is their Seven Ring Tower.

Seven top towers built according to some mysterious witch formations, and then connected by a large number of witchcraft altars or buildings, forming an extremely large witch formation system.

Using the top witch towers as the nodes of the rune formation and the tens of thousands of miles of land under your feet as the foundation of the rune formation, such a pattern, vision and big hand can only be achieved by those great wizards who can destroy the world with a single move.

At this moment, in the inner hall of one of the Seven Ring Towers, a unique hearing is also being held immediately.

Speaker Lawes sat behind his somewhat old mahogany round table, listening to a black-robed wizard in front of him reporting the investigation report on the death of Wizard Mangus, while asking some questions of interest in a low and calm tone.

Speaker Lawes is also a 4th-level wizard, with wrinkles all over his face, gray hair, and a pair of black-framed glasses on his nose that add a touch of elegance, erudition, and wisdom unique to high-level wizards.

On the other side of the hall, behind the high wooden fence, dozens of wizards with anxious and uneasy faces sat on wooden chairs, waiting for the final decision of the Speaker.

"You mean, that Wizard Mangus is dead and can't be dead anymore, and even the soul fragments can't be found?" Speaker Lawes asked the 3rd-level wizard who was sent out to investigate slowly.

"Yes, Mr. Speaker."

"How did he die?"

"We personally visited the wizards who returned with Lord Mangus. According to their recollections, Lord Mangus was normal before returning from the Morian plane, but he suddenly went crazy during the transmission and seemed to want to kill a fellow traveler by self-detonation. This has been confirmed by more than three level 4 wizards..."

"Who did he want to kill?"

"It was a new fire wizard named Grimm, who belonged to the Sanditalin Association and was assigned to the same team as Lord Mangus."

"Do they have a grudge against each other?"

"According to our investigation, it seems that there is no! Moreover, judging from the information we have learned, Lord Mangus seems to have signed an oath contract with several companions. If there is hatred between the two sides, it should not be possible to do this..." The level 3 black-robed wizard is obviously very dedicated, and the information he knows is comprehensive and detailed, and it is obviously quite authoritative.
