Chapter 464 Preparation

After class, Blind Sorcerer discussed everything with Miss Reine once more. She was worried about her students, but she wouldn't say no to Blind Sorcerer, his confidence reassured her.

"If we're all set, then I'll see you later." Blind Sorcerer waved his hand.

"Wait. Mr. Egid asked us to stop by his place. It seems he already knows where we're going." Reine said excitedly.

"Huh, yeah, there's a student of his in my class, and he doesn't seem too keen on getting into an open class." Blind Sorcerer grinned.

"Do you think we might have a problem because of that?"

"No. Mr. Egid is a wise man. He understands that we are doing this for the good of our students. Anyway, we'll find out for ourselves now. Let's go."

"Yes." Reine nodded.

They walked down the spacious corridor of the academy as if they were on their way to a king in a gothic castle. Azure torches lighted the corridor, and the slight darkness gave the place a mysterious and tense atmosphere.

'Mr. All-knowing...' Reine inwardly muttered, 'He just showed up at the academy but already decided to do something like this. I wonder what his name is? That nickname is rather silly, though he was able to achieve such heights being blind. It's incredible.'

Reine didn't expect to have business with a new teacher suddenly, but she didn't mind. She had wanted an open class for a long time, and he was her passport.

Blind Sorcerer came to the door as he was about to knock.

"Come in!" Suddenly a powerful voice rang out.

Reine and Blind Sorcerer looked at each other, then stepped inside.

'Follow current novels ON N (ovelB in.)',

"Mr. Egid," Reine bowed low, "you wanted to see us?"

"Yes. My son told me that you were going to hold an open class in the Misty Forest..." Egid looked at them menacingly, "Is it true?"

"Yes..." Reine said trembling.

Blind Sorcerer simply nodded.

"Mr. Egid, I'm sorry, we were too hasty. We should have thought better about the location for the open class..." Reine said quietly.

She was a strong mage and academy teacher, but her authority was nothing before a man like Egid. He was an Elder, one word from him was enough to make it Reine's last day at the academy.

"Reine, why are you whispering? I didn't hear anything. Okay, it doesn't matter." Egid said as he smiled broadly, "You did well!"

'What...?!' Reine looked up as he puzzled.

'Ahahahaha, you should have seen my son's face. He came to complain about you, and I, on the contrary, praised you, it was something. I respect your choice. The Misty Forest is a great place to learn something." Egid walked over to the cabinet, "As a token of my appreciation, I want to buy you a drink of my favorite whiskey."

Egid pulled a bottle and some glasses from the cabinet.

"Have a seat." Egid opened the bottle as he filled the glasses.

"I would expect nothing less from you." Blind Sorcerer smiled.

Reine was surprised. She thought Egid would scold them since the monsters in the Misty Forest might threaten his son's life, but the opposite happened.

'Mr. Egid knows how to be kind? What the hell is going on here? In any other situation, he would have screamed until our eardrums burst.' Reine shook her head.

They sat down at the table and took a sip.

Reine was not used to hard drinks, so she could hardly keep from spitting it out.

"Ahahahaha, Miss Reine, you need to learn from our newcomer. He didn't even flinch. That's how you drink whiskey." Egid drained his glass in a gulp.

"Mr. Egid, you know your way around alcohol. This is excellent whiskey." Blind Sorcerer slowly swirled the glass.

"Sure, here, try some more."

...

They did not leave Egid until several hours later. Reine was very drunk. After the second glass, she refused to drink, but she couldn't resist Mr. Egid's pressure.

"Huh, last night's wine didn't hurt you in any way, but now you can barely stand on your feet." Blind Sorcerer muttered.

"Exactly... I'd rather have some more wine..." Reine stared at Blind Sorcerer, "Hey, let's go to my house. Let's do it again last night. I haven't felt this good in a long time."

'It's true that alcohol loosens the tongue... Well, it's for the best. Too much alcohol will only make the poison inside her stronger.' Blind Sorcerer thought as he grabbed Reine by the neck.

'Not tonight. Get a grip. The students are relying on us. We must not let them down." He said seriously.

"Yes... You're right... I'm sorry, I actually drank too much." Reine mouthed guiltily, "Then we'll meet tomorrow."

'

"Sure."

Blind Sorcerer and Reine parted ways. She headed for her home, but Blind Sorcerer had one more thing to do.

'Where is he going?' Wain wondered.

It was already quite late. The moon had risen and was brightly illuminating the ground. However, Blind Sorcerer was not going to sleep.

He quickly left the academy grounds and headed toward the eerie forest. Many of the trees were dry, their bark was stiff, and their branches were like needles. The atmosphere in the place was tense. Danger seemed to emanate from all directions.

,m Blind Sorcerer walked forward, he smiled weakly. He felt confident in this forest as he was the most important threat.

'Is he heading that way...?' Wain looked at the house in the distance.

It was an old abandoned cabin. The house was covered in cobwebs and half-ruined. No one had lived here for years.

'This chapter is updated by N(o)V(e)lB(i)n.',

"Egid took me a little time, but it was worth it. Anyway, now I can start preparing." Blind Sorcerer smirked.

A protective barrier appeared around the house. Blind Sorcerer waved his hands, and the barrier dissolved, then he went inside.

Blind Sorcerer opened a hatch hidden in the floor. It led into the void. It was so deep you couldn't see the bottom. He nodded weakly and jumped down.

He landed and looked around. It was a dark basement, a place Lois had recently found himself in, though he didn't realize it.

There were many cages in the basement. Creepy monsters sat in them, their eyes blazing with rage and bloodlust.

"Your time will come soon."
