“You know in your heart that Shubick’s pollution is wandering within the Empire, and the first one affected must be your father. It’s just that you’ve been unwilling to face this fact.”
“Take a closer look at Tatis now. Division Intelligence Unit Two can take command of Division Intelligence Unit Four’s troops on the battlefield. Military Intelligence Departments Five and Six are secretly plotting to throw the Fission Wilderness into turmoil. The Undead Cult, which can be easily eradicated with the help of wizards, has never been dealt with. Such chaos is commonplace in Tatis. How long do you think Tatis can hold on traveling in this bumpy carriage?”
Noland Lee looked at Morster, who fell silent again, and asked:
“As I said before, Morster, I have no intention of getting involved in the specific affairs of a country. My parents, brother, and sister have died because of some people’s greed. That doesn’t mean I have no concerns in Tatis. What I want you to do is related to a female nurse from Division Intelligence Unit Three, named Sully. I hope that after the new wizard forces enter Tatis, you can introduce her to them, help her become a wizard, and give her a chance to see the starry sky in this world rather than spend her whole life in the gloomy, oppressive Tatis.”
Morster hesitated for a while and opened his mouth:
“In the end… it’s for a woman? Shouldn’t you ask me to help you erase the evidence of killing Kasha? Aren’t you worried about being targeted by Intelligence Department 1?”
Noland Lee confidently smiled:
“I can defeat you, so I can also defeat them.”
Noland Lee said:
“As for helping Sully, I ask you to do this because of my own psychological needs. Remember my principle? To let good people have a good end. I can’t help every good person right now, but I still want to try to help Sully. In my eyes, she is one of the few people with good intentions.”
Morster coughed lightly, his voice somewhat embarrassed:
“Ahem, well, actually, she was arranged by me, and I asked her to get in touch with you. So, if you think she has a crush on you, it’s actually because of the task requirements… you know what I mean, right?”
Noland Lee shrugged slightly:
“It doesn’t matter, Morster. Only she knows whether she’s genuinely fallen in love or not. I won’t deny the warmth she brought me during my suffering just because she pretended to care about me.”
“Okay… I’ll do as you say. When the new wizard forces arrive, I’ll guide her to become a wizard.”
On second thought, Morster’s tone becomes strange:
“To help you with this, doesn’t it mean I have to make sure the new wizard forces settle in smoothly first? That means I’ve helped you with two things in one go. If we count the Dusk Giants escaping the Empire with the help of new wizard forces, then I’ve helped you with three things. Your calculations are quite loud.”
Noland Lee didn’t feel embarrassed that Morster saw his true intentions.
Yes, he indeed used the name “Sully” to have Morster help him with three things at once.
He can confidently say that this is his wisdom.
Noland Lee responded to Morster nonchalantly:
“Helping the new wizard forces settle in is for you and your Empire, not for me. I’m living a good life outside now and don’t care about Tatis.”
Morster didn’t dwell on this issue and instead asked:
“Why are you here then? Noland Lee Jarvis? Do you still go by that name? Have you joined the Alchemists? No wonder you’re against the actions of Military Intelligence Departments Five and Six. Hey! Wait a minute!”
Morster suddenly shouted:
“Was it you who snatched the Bone-mending Wand from Military Intelligence Department Five’s hands?!”
Now it’s Noland Lee’s turn to be embarrassed:
“Ahem, well, this… it’s a normal business transaction. Besides, the Bone-mending Wand shouldn’t have appeared in Fission Wilderness. That place is under the research area of Elemental Judgement. It couldn’t be more normal for Elemental Judgement to hire me to bring the Bone-Mending Wand back.”
