However, Lily was expecting this kind of reaction from her teacher after hearing her words and she wasn't surprised in the least. Therefore, she just listened to her teacher's shouting and shook her head. 'Even if I did explain my reason for destroying my mana circles and mana circuit, she won't be able to understand it...' Lily sighed inwardly. As Rowena continued to lecture Lily for her decision, Lord Ivan, Lady Eliza, Lady Diana, and last but not least, Silas, could seemingly understand what…-

"My Lady, I've brought the esteemed guests who would like to have a word with you..." The guard addressed Madam Layla with a slight bow. "Mmm, you may leave now..." Madam Layla nodded. "As you wish, My Lady." The guard nodded and promptly departed, returning to his post.

Both Rowena and Silas acknowledged…

? "Let's also meet the governor of the village, shall we? In this way, we can not only know Lord Joseph's motive but we can even get some clues about the genius new mages," Rowena suggested, her gaze fixed on the Monroe family's manor. She couldn't contain her excitement at the thought of seeing Lord Joseph and the others' surprised expressions. "If Miss Rowena is sure, then let's proceed," Silas agreed, smiling at Rowena. He approached the manor's entrance with her. As they neared the…

Lord Ivan, Lady Eliza, and Lady Diana had anticipated Lord Joseph's reaction to Yuan's refusal to join the kingdom, and they weren't surprised. But they felt powerless to stop this madman now. "Shut your mouth, you old geezer. You're too loud," Yuan's cold voice resounded suddenly, leaving Lord Ivan and the two ladies in disbelief. "O-Old geezer...?" Lord Joseph was stunned, his face showing shock at being called such a humiliating name. He couldn't believe this young upstart would dare to address…

Inside the manor, Madam Layla and her daughters, along with Yuan and his wives, were enjoying their morning tea, savoring the start of the day. Yuan sat between his mothers, Anna and Grace, while Lily and Emma flanked them. Xi Meili occupied the best seat in the house, nestled on Yuan's lap. He held her waist tenderly with one hand and sipped his tea with the other. Just then, the living hall door creaked open, and a voice followed. An entrance guard entered, accompanied by a group of unfamiliar…

"Indeed," Lord Joseph affirmed, taking his place in the room designated for Lord Ivan. Lady Eliza and Lady Diana followed, arranging themselves around the sizable table. Lord Ivan positioned himself opposite the two ladies, with Tyler and Ryan flanking him. The discussion delved into the unexpected arrival of the mages from the kingdom's prestigious magic academy. It was highly irregular for such an esteemed institution to show interest in a newly developed village. Each person present recognized…

Yuan and his wives arrived at the living hall after resting in his room for a while. As they entered, they saw Madam Layla, Ava, and Julie sitting on the plush sofa, wearing somewhat dazed expressions. The entire hall was enveloped in an unusual silence, with the three women lost in thought. Yuan and his wives exchanged puzzled glances, wondering what might have caused this sudden solemnity. Rose, in particular, appeared anxious and worried, her gaze shifting between her mother and…

Meanwhile, Tyler and Ryan arrived near the residential area of the Monore family after walking for about 10 to 15 minutes through the bustling streets of this village. "Look, that should be the Monore family's residence. They even have guards at the entrance," Ryan said, pointing towards the two guards standing watch at the entrance of the Monore family's manor. "This is it, we're at the right place," Tyler nodded, and they proceeded towards the entrance of the manor. The two guards noticed the two…

After the two of them left, Lord Ivan turned to Lord Joseph and the two ladies. "Let's go to the dining area and have something to eat. You all must be feeling hungry since we only had breakfast." Lady Eliza nodded enthusiastically. "Definitely!" "Let's not waste time then, shall we?" Lady Diana chimed in, already heading towards the dining area, her stomach audibly growling in hunger. The others nodded in agreement and followed Lady Diana, making their way to the dining hall of the Silver Moon…

"Indeed we can't force the Monroe family to tell us about our target's location; instead, it will only create problems for us as the village is developing at a rapid rate," Lady Eliza explained, her tone measured. Lord Ivan nodded, clearly understanding the implications of both Lady Eliza and Lady Diana's words. Lord Joseph, however, wore a disappointed expression after hearing their response. He had envisioned a direct approach with the Monroe family, believing it would make the mission considerably…
