Chapter 105 - Aldwin (2/2)

The young man was good-looking—he was tall and handsome. It was only a shame that his eyes looked a little too small. In particular, they would narrow when he laughed, making them look thin and long, giving off an effeminate feel.

His black mage robe was exquisitely crafted—it was probably made by a famous tailor. It also emitted a strong magical wave. From what Lin Li saw, the magical wave was even stronger than the Robe of Wrath’s. But what really surprised Lin Li was the powerful aura emanating from the young mage.

The young mage’s strength was far beyond Lin Li’s imagination. Among the young people he had seen, perhaps only Cromwell, who had gone through the transformation, could compare with him.

He was at least level-fourteen, or even level-fifteen!

“Which Guild of Magic is he from?”

“The Alanna Guild of Magic, of course.”

“No wonder…” Lin Li nodded and did not question further. Perhaps only the heart of the Felan Kingdom, the Alanna Guild of Magic, could foster such an impressive character.

Amidst their exchanges, Lin Li suddenly noticed the unusual expression on Orrin’s face.

Orrin’s pale face showed a hint of agitation as he saw Gryffindor. Although his hands were huddled in his sleeves, anyone could guess that his hidden hands had to be firmly clenched into fists from the quiver of the mage robe.

Lin Li was a little confused; Orrin had always been arrogant and indifferent. How could he have lost his sense of proportion at the sight of Gryffindor?

And then he saw Gryffindor coming in their direction.

“Heh heh… Orrin, I can’t believe you’re here!” Gryffindor’s face was full of smiles, but as he approached the three guys, his eyes were fixed on the agitated Orrin. As for Lin Li and Mason who were just beside him, Gryffindor did not even spare a look at them.

Orrin did not speak, but only stared at the other party in the eyes; the hands that were hidden in his sleeves were trembling even harder.

“To be honest, Orrin, I was quite surprised. I’ve always thought you wouldn’t dare to partic.i.p.ate in the trial…” When Gryffindor laughed, his long, slender eyes were squinted once more; the effeminate feel he gave off annoyed Lin Li.

“Please go away.” Orrin’s words were still plain and concise, but judging from his husky voice, he was definitely not as calm as he sounded.

“Heh heh… Orrin, you’re still the same. Alright, I’ll leave right away. I hope I can still see you at the final qualifying compet.i.tion.” Gryffindor took a step backward with the smile still on his face, and his contemptuous eyes swept over Mason’s face. There was some mockery in his tone. “But, to be honest, Orrin, your luck is really bad. Look at your teammates, he’s actually a real level-nine mage…

“Wait…” As he spoke, he suddenly saw Lin Li, who was just next to Mason. Gryffindor seemed to have discovered a new continent. “Oh my G.o.d… If I’m not mistaken, this one should be a level-seven mage, right?”

“F*ck…” How could Mason swallow the insult? He clenched his fist and wanted to dash forward to punch him, but as soon as he took a step out, he was held back tightly by Lin Li. This was the guild hall. If Mason dared to make trouble here, he would surely be driven back to Chevan City. In the end, Lin Li could not just stand and watch him do something silly. They were roommates sharing the same dorm, after all.

As for the something-findor… Anyway, the coming days would be long; Lin Li was in no hurry at all.

“Orrin, you’re really unlucky…” Gryffindor’s laughter was pompous amid Mason’s bawl. “You’re actually met with such two teammates. Looks like I may not necessarily see you in the qualifying compet.i.tion. Hahahaha…”

“Scram!” Orrin’s hoa.r.s.e roar alarmed everyone. The 20-odd young mages turned their heads and looked at him in confusion.

And then there were whispers all around.

“Look, that seems to be Orrin from the Rotterdam Guild!”

“Yes, yes, yes… I remember him. He’s the magic genius who was beaten by Gryffindor three years ago.”

“So it’s him…”

“I heard that this fellow is really impressive. It’s a pity he has met Gryffindor. How unlucky…”

Gryffindor seemed to revel in their discussions. It was not until the murmurs died down that he went away with a satisfied expression on his face.

“Orrin, if you’re unable to complete the trial missions, come and beg me!”
