Chapter 280: Heart-to-heart talk between master and disciple
After returning to Mogwen, Colin mobilized his family members immediately. Even Old Tang, who was eating free meals at Colin's house, was not spared. He asked him to help buy some supplies and resources.
Old Tang was helpless about Colin's crazy behavior. I came to your house not to be your middleman. I am just taking advantage of the time to communicate with magician Emily.
But Colin, no matter what you say at this time, you have to go whether you want to or not. Not to mention the relationship between the two, as Emily's only elder at the moment, if you want to communicate without my consent, is that possible?
In desperation, Old Tang had to return to his family to help purchase a batch of supplies. However, before leaving, Emily said that she had never been to the Ramand area and wanted to see it for herself.
Well, they were all adults, and Colin didn't want to interfere too much, so he just left them alone. They just had to buy the supplies on time.
Colin's family runs a shop in Megwen, and Lina soon heard about their shop's recent large-scale purchase of supplies. Lina was not sure what her apprentice was going to do, but out of caution, she still notified Colin to come over.
"Teacher." Although Colin wanted to gather the supplies Snape needed as soon as possible, he did not dare to disobey the teacher's call and reported to Heaton Manor as soon as possible.
"You still know that I'm your teacher. Can't you tell me what's going on? The Heaton family can still help with bulk purchases of supplies. Is it that your wife Helen's family is in urgent need? Or is there some big deal going on in the Victoria Islands?" Lina never thought about the dark wizard.
"Uh..., neither of them. I need it from a friend in the underground world."
"Underground world? Who can eat so many supplies? Are you involved with the Abyss Demon Clan?"
"No, I won't. I only fought them once 20 years ago. I have never had any other dealings with them. I don't know any of the Abyss Demons in the Underground World."
"I'm too lazy to guess. Just tell me what happened. How did you get to know the big buyer?"
"Uh... Teacher, you'd better not ask." Colin didn't want to tell the teacher about this taboo. The risk was quite high and he had already troubled the teacher enough.
"Tell me, do you feel that you have made more friends after participating in several plane wars? Do you feel that teachers are useless?"
"Okay, then I'll tell you." In the wizard tower of the Heaton family, Colin was not afraid of being overheard by others. Since the teacher asked again and again, Colin couldn't hide it. He just hoped that the teacher would not stop him from "making money".
"Go ahead."
"It's a friend from the Minotaur tribe who introduced me to a friend from Dalavini. They are short of resources there, so I want to buy some."
"That's it. I don't think it's a secret. Is it worth hiding it?"
"Ah? Teacher, that's a dark wizard. Isn't it forbidden on the continent to have any contact with dark wizards? And they also said..."
"And he said, see, anyone can kill them, and there will be merits to be gained after killing them?"
"Yeah, yeah, that's right."
"You have grown up in the wrong direction over the years. Since you came to the Mogwen region, apart from fooling around in your little home, you have gone to the Victoria Islands a few times and participated in a few plane wars. Your understanding of the major forces on the continent has only remained on the surface.
No matter if they are dark wizards or white wizards, they are ultimately part of the wizarding world and bear considerable responsibilities. Moreover, the dark wizards have made many contributions to the wizarding world, otherwise they would have been attacked and killed long ago. Can Dalavini withstand the attacks from several major forces?
Let alone you, the Heaton family also has friends in Dalavini, and other forces have their own channels. This new friend you just met is probably from a small force, otherwise they wouldn't be unable to get these basic supplies, so how can you make money?"
"Then can I continue with this transaction?"
"Just be careful. Don't you have friends in the underground world? It's right in their territory. Don't trade with that dark wizard. Just do it directly.
By the way, you have been traveling back and forth to the underground world for a while, so you haven’t noticed many things. There have been a lot of changes on the mainland. I’ll take this opportunity to talk to you about it all.”
Colin is most concerned about two things right now. One is making money, and the other is improving his strength. He really knows very little about other things.
“Since the wizard Merlin was promoted to level 4, many leaders of major forces have started the road to being promoted to level 4. Not long ago, our old superior, Griman, was promoted to level 4. And according to analysis by some people, in the next ten years or so, most of the leaders of major forces will be promoted to level 4.
Do you know what this means? It means that only those with level 4 can be considered a large force, and only those with level 3 can be considered a medium-sized force. The gap that I was originally catching up with has been widened. As long as I don't advance to level 3, my family will remain a small force. Do you understand?"
"Level three? I'm thinking about being promoted to level two soon. Teacher, it's still a bit far away for me."
“Also, according to convention, the Wizarding World Alliance Conference is held every thousand years. This time it’s less than a thousand years, but because there are too many changes in the wizarding world, it may be held after the leaders of some major forces are promoted to level four.
More changes will be waiting for us then, so let’s take advantage of this rare period of calm and develop quickly.
Whether you want to make money or get promoted to the second level, you have to speed up the process. Once you embark on this extraordinary path, you have no right to stop.
Finally, our contract is about to expire. I have observed your actions over the years and I think you don't want to renew it with me. You may also be planning to establish your own faction. But no matter what, we are still master and apprentice, and I hope our relationship can remain friendly for a long time."
"Teacher, no matter what, I will never forget your care for me..."
"No need to say more, go ahead. The convening of the Alliance Conference is both a major change and an opportunity. There will definitely be many new plans and strategies at that time. It depends on whether you can grasp them."
This conversation between Lina and Colin made Colin confused for several days. He felt that he was about to be promoted to level two, which was considered to be mid-level strength in the wizarding world. But after listening to what Teacher Lina said, he felt that the gap had widened again. Although he was not at the bottom, his previous idea was shattered again. He must work harder on the road to improving his strength.
However, let's finish the current task first.
Lina's words were not a top secret topic. Colin sent two copies of the content to the Victoria Islands Wizard Council and the Emerald Island Academy. As for Old Tang, Colin believed that they had more channels to obtain this information and there was no need for him to do so.
Although Helen and the other girls didn't want Colin to work so hard, they felt that he still had a long life ahead of him and that he still had hope of being promoted to level three during his lifetime. But after listening to Lina's words, Colin also began to have the idea of "becoming a god". Only when he reached level four could he be considered a "god" and had a foundation in the wizarding world.
