Chapter 311: The Temptation of Power! Translator: Lonelytree Rheagar clenched his fists and roared in a low voice, ā€œNo, Sif won’t be doing that!ā€ As he spoke, he stared at Matthew seriously. ā€œSif is still young. I won’t allow you to have any ideas about her!ā€ Matthew slowly picked up a newspaper on the table and scanned it. He replied, ā€œShe’s not as young as you think, Rhaegar.ā€ Rheagar snatched the newspaper and looked at Matthew seriously. ā€œListen, Matthew, if I find out that you’re secretly dating Sif, don’t even think about entering the liege’s manor, let alone reading my newspapers!ā€ Seeing this, Matthew could only say, ā€œDon’t worry, Rheagar. I understand you. I’ve already made a promise to you before, and now I can repeat it. That promise is still valid.ā€ Rheagar looked at him suspiciously. In the end, under Matthew’s innocent gaze, he snorted heavily and handed the tabloid that was dedicated to the scandal to him. Matthew read it happily. ā€œMadam Wesley! Another cup of coffee, Mrs. Wesley! Where is she? This damned old woman, I must fire her!ā€ Rheagar angrily took the empty cup and walked towards the corridor. Before he could take two steps, he was stopped by Zeller. ā€œGet the madam to make two cups. I’m a little sleepy too. Does Matthew need a cup too?ā€ Matthew didn’t say anything. He just turned his back to Rheagar and silently raised his index finger. ā€œWhat is the meaning of this?ā€ Rheagar asked in confusion. ā€œOne finger is the number 1, and 1 means approval,ā€ Matthew said casually. Zeller asked curiously, ā€œWhat is this? Why haven’t I heard of it before?ā€ Matthew replied without raising his head, ā€œThis is knowledge from another world. Ordinary mages wouldn’t be able to come into contact with it.ā€ Rheagar sounded very satisfied. ā€œI see! One finger meant agreement. That’s right, Matthew. You should share more useful knowledge with us so that you can live up to your status as a magic consultant. I’m willing to serve you coffee just for this knowledge, but this won’t happen again! ā€˜ Madam Wesley?! ā€ With that, Rheagar’s loud voice came from the corridor again. After a while. He brought back three cups of coffee on a tray. Zeller organized all the documents and asked Rheagar, ā€œDid Li Weiqi find anything in the Highleaf Territory?ā€ Matthew perked up his ears as he read the newspaper. He knew that Li Weiqi had been running to the Highleaf Territory every few days recently. He only came back once during the Scorched Field of Death ceremony and then ran away again not long after. This made him curious about the situation in the High Leaf Territory. Rheagar replied, ā€œHe told me about some things. The situation in the High Leaf Territory is not good. The flood has caused a huge impact and caused chaos. ā€œTo make matters worse, there were rumours that the dragon had attacked the mountain reservoir. ā€œAlthough no one witnessed that scene, this rumour was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Currently, the people of the Highleaf Territory are in a state of panic. Some of the residents have even defected to our territory. This will cause a lot of pressure on the security work in the southwest. ā€œThe most important thing was that Li Weiqi really found some traces of dragon activity near the high mountain reservoir!ā€ Zeller frowned and said, ā€œWhat kind of dragon?ā€ Rheagar sighed. I’m not sure. It can’t be a White Dragon or a Green Dragon, and it can’t be a Blue Dragon either. So, they are either Red Dragons or Black Dragons.ā€ Zeller nodded. ā€œIt seems that the astrologers were right about the dragons entering their active phase. ā€œI’m afraid we have to make preparations in advance to deal with the dragon disaster.ā€ Rheagar replied, I’ve already asked Asma and the others to make preparations. If it were an ordinary dragon, I don’t think they would dare to attack Rolling Stone Town. After all, Mr. Ronan’s reputation is still there.ā€ Then, he asked, ā€œI’ve already written a reply letter to Alena, no, the wife of the mayor of Deep Blue Port. When should I send it?ā€ Zeller thought for a moment. ā€œAs soon as possible. Deep Blue Port is quite far from here. If they really want to visit, they will need some time to prepare. If they are a little later, it will be midsummer, which is not very friendly to travel. If they drag it out until early autumn, I’m afraid that your dream will turn into bubbles by then.ā€ Rheagar glared at him and complained, ā€œEver since Matthew came to work, you seem to like teasing me more and more.ā€ Zeller pouted innocently. At this moment, Matthew finally finished reading all the gossip. He looked up and asked, ā€œIs the meeting over?ā€ Zeller nodded. Matthew looked at Rheagar with anticipation. ā€œExcuse me, can you practice a spell with me? My lord?ā€ Rheagar laughed coldly. ā€œDon’t even think about it!ā€ Ding! Ding! Ding! Matthew slapped five gold coins on the table and said confidently, ā€œI’ll pay you!ā€ Rheagar glanced and quickly put the five gold coins into the pocket of his pyjamas. ā€œSure. ā€œBut not here. Come, follow me into the room.’ Then, he led Matthew to the room behind the office. In the corridor. Madam Wesley appeared at the door with a broom in her hand. When she saw what happened just now, she couldn’t help but ask Zeller, ā€œAre they official?ā€ Zeller smiled and said, ā€œLet it go, Madam. You must have heard that they were going to practice magic and not do anything else.ā€ Seeing that her trick had been seen through, Madam Wesley replied without blushing, ā€œOh, I’m not sure. There are a lot of tricks up their sleeves these days. Maybe they were talking in slang.ā€ In the northernmost floating city. In the magnificent library. Huge shadows spread from the floor to the bookshelves and finally gathered on the starry dome. The white-robed Edmond said respectfully, ā€œTeacher, according to your instructions, the six lords have arrived.ā€ Behind him, the six shadows were silent. They represented the highest power in the Alliance, which was the current Seven Saints! Isabelle glanced at the shadow and suddenly asked unhappily, ā€œHow did the Seven Saints become six? Haven’t you already found someone to replace me?ā€ Embarrassment appeared on Edmond’s face as he reminded her softly, ā€œSir Ronan is not here.ā€ Hearing this, Isabelle’s white hair floated upside down. She looked furious. ā€œWhere’s Ronan? What was he doing? Why didn’t you come to see me? Is he afraid that I’ll give him a zero?!ā€ Edmond continued in a low voice, ā€œLord Ronan is trapped in the astral plane.ā€ ā€œOh.ā€ Isabelle’s emotions eased a little, and then she asked in confusion, ā€œWho is capable enough to trap Ronan in the astral plane?ā€ Edmond coughed heavily twice. Under Isabelle’s displeased gaze, she urged. He then braced himself and said, ā€œDidn’t you use divine spells to lock him up in the astral plane?ā€ Isabelle was enlightened. ā€œSo it’s me. Oh, I forgot.ā€ Soon after. As if nothing had happened, she threw an ordinary crystal ball into the air and said, ā€œA problem that you guys couldn’t solve even after decades, but a rogue Mage solved it all at once. ā€œTake a good look!ā€ As soon as she finished speaking. The crystal ball began to play images related to the Scar of the Dead.
