Chapter 232 - Taking Action In Person (1/2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ever since Lin Li had come to Anril, he had stirred up trouble numerous times, but there was not a single time that was as baffling as today. It was totally an undeserved accident. He was standing there perfectly fine and he did not offend or provoke anyone. Yet this fella charged over like a mad dog. F*ck, if I don’t vaccinate you for rabies, would you think I can be bullied?

“So queer…” Lin Li swore in a fit.

Just as he was about to return to the crowd, he saw Amman holding a bottle of potion. He anxiously poured it into Milo’s mouth while glaring at Lin Li. That expression and gaze was as if somebody stole his wife. Lin Li could not help but scratch his head, and thought to himself, How did I even offend you master and disciple?

“Milo, how are you?” Amman asked Milo with concerned face while carefully helping him up. After gulping down the potion, Milo’s complexion started getting better.

“Teacher Amman, it was him… It was him that ruined my potion!” It was as though Milo did not hear anything. His eyes stared straight at Lin Li and his voice had a tinge of sobbing in it.

“I know, I know… Be at ease, Milo. This time, Mentor will help you seek justice. This is the Pharmacists Guild. With President Balbo and Mr. Burnside as well as the respected pharmacists present, they will not watch you get bullied by somebody. It will be the same even if it is a disciple of a legendary-mage!”

“…” Lin Li was amused and annoyed after hearing it.

However, he thought about it and let it go. These two, master and disciple, are somewhat abnormal. Since they like to act as the victim, then I’ll just let them carry on since I will not lose a piece of flesh anyway.

Andoine, who was at the side, could not hold it in anymore. “Amman, what do you mean by that?”

“What do I mean? Master Andoine, you have a high virtue and a glorious name. I, Amman, have always respected that from the bottom of my heart, but today, I have to say something. Master Andoine, I really cannot agree with your judgment in selecting students.”

“Amman!” Andoine had lived for more than a hundred years. The thing that he was the most pleased with was that he had taught Lin Li magic. To him, this was the most brilliant thing he had ever done in his life. Amman questioning his judgment at this instance was like giving him a slap on the face. Andoine could not tolerate it anymore and raised his voice. “Just say whatever you have to say!”

“Master Andoine, I, Amman, am just an insignificant person compared to you, but with regards to choosing disciples, I have to remind you that some people are born to be unscrupulous. They will do anything just to beat compet.i.tors.”

“This…” Lin Li scratched his head before he finally understood what it meant. “Could it be that you are referring to me?”

“Who else can it be if it’s not you?” Amman looked at Lin Li and his eyes were filled with hatred. “You already knew that the Moonlight Gra.s.s was the most crucial step, and you also knew that Milo cannot be distracted at that point. Yet, you intentionally made some noise at that time. If it’s not because of you, why would Milo’s potion fail and why would he lose all logic and fight with you?”

“…” Lin Li thought it about it carefully before he remembered that when Connoris, that as*hole, was being a nuisance, he had heard a m.u.f.fled sound. Could it be that m.u.f.fled sound was made when Milo failed?

Thinking about the scene back then, Lin Li was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. These two, master and disciple, were so desperate because Lin Li made a sound at that time. To tell you the truth, if it was not because that as*hole Connoris was being mischievous, did you think that I would be so free to shout and wrangle that such a time?

Furthermore, even if I were to remain silent, do you think that your disciple would be able to concoct the Void Power Potion?

Why don’t you take a look at the timing? He was holding the Moonlight Gra.s.s and hesitating for so long. Do you think the temperament of the Sunflower was as good as mine? Even half a second would be hopeless, not to mention that you hesitated for so long. Once the flare flashed, it also meant that Sunflower’s heat had already been released. In that instance, it would immediately destroy the composition of the potion. At that point, it wouldn’t make a difference even if you put the whole moon in, much less Moonlight Gra.s.s.

“Forgive me for being so powerful…” After listening to Amman complaining with tears of blood, Lin Li instinctively rubbed his nose. This was the first time he realized that he was a villainous genius. Listen to that meticulous conspiracy and treacherous plan. If it was used to protect the world’s peace, Amman would have been filled with love long ago.

“Ok, now you can be complacent. Because of your distraction, Milo had thoroughly failed and was injured severely. Your aim to seek revenge has been accomplished. How can you still be dissatisfied?”

“Actually, Mage Amman, you’re also somebody of old age. Can you not be like a youngster and take everything for granted?” Looking at Amman’s sad and angered expression, Lin Li really could not tolerate it anymore. His words were not as restrained as before. “Do you really think that your precious disciple’s success was within arm’s reach? Stop joking, Mage Amman. I’m not afraid of telling you it honestly. When Milo was hesitating and holding on to the Moonlight Gra.s.s, he had already failed. What do you think the Void Power Potion is? A sculpture in the hands of a crystal sculptor that needs to wait for him to slowly think of where should he start and end?”

Amman sneered. “Of course you can say whatever you want now.”
