The Wizard: From Zero-Ring Wizard to Almighty Lord.

Chapter 340 Fire Breaks Out in the Harem, Two Women Stand Off Against Each Other

In the mortal kingdom, a single word from an emperor is enough to shake the entire nation.

But Lynn, the fourth-level Morning Star Wizard, stirred up a storm far beyond what was typical for any ordinary kingdom with just a single sentence.

The moment the order was issued, the Kingdom of Eluria seemed to be swept away by an invisible force.

The nobility were shaken, the city-states were uneasy, and the signals of magic circles lit up one after another in the night.

Within the kingdom, wizarding forces of all sizes reacted one after another, setting off to converge on the location of the Temple of Life.

The Temple of Life is undoubtedly the most powerful core within the Kingdom of Eluria.

However, Lynn did not, like the Spirit Eye Forge of the past, completely incorporate the entire kingdom into his private domain, allowing no one else to stand on it.

He chose to loosen this boundary, allowing wizard families to exist within the kingdom, fostering small and medium-sized forces, and even permitting competition and friction between them.

The only prerequisite is that it is under the will of the temple of life.

Therefore, when Lynn gave the order, the wizards and apprentices inside the Temple of Life were the first to respond, and wizards and students of all ranks were ready for battle.
Meanwhile, within the kingdom, wizard families and various small and medium-sized forces, after a brief hesitation, began to act, flowing like an undercurrent towards the Temple of Life.

At the same time, the 001 dimension also trembled.

Under the command of the feathered serpent goddess Evelyn, the many golden thrones are interconnected, with their will being transmitted down through the ranks.

A massive number of silver alchemists were immediately mobilized, abandoning their experiments and workshops to rush to the designated location.

As for the Bronze Alchemist and the Iron Level 3, Evelyn did not force them to do so.

Whether to go or not is entirely up to one's own will.

However, this matter involves the world's strongest beings and is related to the Sky Island, which means opportunities, risks, and the possibility of breaking through social classes.

Almost no one who still harbors ambitions to go further chooses to retreat.

A voice shook the kingdom of Eluria; a will guided the entire 001 dimension.

This is the true weight of Lynn, this fourth-level Morning Star wizard.

Within the two regions, wizards and apprentices gazed with burning ambition, their hearts pounding with fervor, awaiting Lord Morningstar's next command.
The alchemists were also filled with excitement, eagerly awaiting the orders from the supreme being.

As for Lord Lynn, who changed everything with a single sentence, he seemed quite relaxed at the moment, sitting comfortably on the top floor of the Wizard Tower.

To say it was leisurely is not entirely accurate.

At least for now, this Morning Star Wizard, who can remain unfazed amidst the storm of rules, is entangled in a rather troublesome "problem".

In the spacious and elegant living room, Lynn nestled in the soft sofa, her fingertips lightly touching her temples, a hint of helplessness in her eyes that was hard for outsiders to see.

Beside him stood the head elven maid, Bephne.

The fitted maid dress accentuated her graceful curves, and the hem of the skirt swayed slightly, revealing a section of her fair, snow-white calves.

This usually aloof elf turned her head slightly, her slender fingertips covering the corner of her mouth, trying hard to suppress the smile that was about to burst out of her throat.

Opposite them, two completely different figures stood quietly, like twin lotus blossoms, each with its own advantage.

Astrid wore a wide, long robe. Although the layers of fabric seemed conservative, they subtly revealed her graceful, undulating curves with each breath.

Her signature long purple hair cascaded down like silk, her purple eyes were cool and aloof, and she was like a goddess, exuding a sense of detachment that was untouched by the world.

Evelyn, standing on the other side, is like the complete opposite extreme.

This stunning beauty, who crossed over from dimension 001, possesses a naturally aggressive and gorgeous face.

She made no attempt to conceal her stunning assets; the daring cut exposed large swathes of her snow-white skin and her long, straight legs to the air, and her eyes exuded a captivating wildness and charm.

As the saying goes, three women make a drama, and indeed there are three women now: Evelyn, Astrid, and Beverly.

However, as Lynn's loyal maid, Beverly was not involved in the conflict between Evelyn and Astrid.

Evelyn and Astrid were different.

They were all Lynn's women, either in name or in fact. They had lived in different places in the past and had gotten along peacefully, but now that they had met, some friction had arisen.

Not long ago, the "offspring" that Astrid and Lynn conceived through magical crystallization had been officially retrieved by Lynn as a mature experimental product.

Despite her deep reluctance, Astrid was ultimately powerless to stop Lynn.

In the days that followed, Astrid seemed to have lost her soul.

She was consumed by unbearable grief, harboring a deep resentment towards Lynn, yet she knew that the gap between their ranks was insurmountable, and could only weep silently alone in the dead of night.

However, under these circumstances, with Lynn issuing a secret order, the Kingdom of Eluria and the 001 Dimension World simultaneously sounded the horn of preparation for war.

For this reason, Evelyn, who had long lived in another dimension, also crossed the spacetime rift and officially entered the wizarding world.

Thanks to her special relationship with Lynn, Evelyn enjoys extremely high authority within the Temple of Life.

Even high-ranking members of the Temple of Life, such as Head Maid Beverly, or Helen, Bodo, and Mona.

When faced with this beautiful and assertive woman, they dared not be negligent in the slightest, treating her with utmost care, for fear of making any mistakes.

Evelyn had no interest in the tedious workings of power and did not interfere in the daily affairs of the temple.

Instead, she poured all her energy into another "game"...

During casual conversations with Beverly and others, Evelyn would always inquire about Lynn's private life in recent years, seemingly casually.

Every question uttered from those fiery red lips pointed precisely to the domestic matters that Lynn deliberately avoided.

Those followers were also shrewd; they knew that if Lord Lynn's "harem" were to catch fire, the safest course of action would be to let the fire burn in Lord Lynn's own hands.

If they deliberately conceal the truth and cause future problems, none of them can bear the punishment.

Thus, every detail about Astrid's existence reached Evelyn's ears.

This became the trigger.

Evelyn felt like she was living a lonely, widowed life in that remote 001 dimension.

However, Astrid is able to reside permanently in the Temple of Life and is even regarded as the "Mistress" by outsiders, which is undoubtedly the greatest injustice.

So Evelyn began to intentionally or unintentionally provoke Astrid.

On one side is a seductive enchantress, filled with resentment and eager to assert her dominance through conflict; on the other is a witch, heartbroken and despondent over the loss of her child.

When two completely different emotions collided within the haughty wizard's tower, sparks instantly ignited the air.

The friction escalated from verbal sparring to a real standoff, and just as the two were about to come to blows, the news finally reached the top.

Lynn, who was sitting leisurely at the top of the wizard's tower, sipping tea and waiting for Tina and Hadley to arrive, could only put down the scroll about the expedition in his hand after seeing the news of the two women's confrontation. He rubbed his temples helplessly and began to deal with this "troublesome matter" that was even more troublesome than the interdimensional war.

"Tell me... what exactly happened?"

Lynn rubbed his temples helplessly, his gaze sweeping over the two stunningly beautiful women in front of him, each with their own unique charm. His tone was tinged with laziness and exhaustion.

However, it would have been better if he hadn't spoken. His question instantly brought tears to Astrid's eyes, who was already full of grievances.

Her amethyst-like eyes quickly filled with mist, and glistening tears welled up in her eyes. Her pitiful appearance was truly heart-wrenching.

Seeing this, Evelyn felt a surge of anger welling up inside her.

She wasn't looking at Lynn at first, but was constantly observing Astrid's every move.

Seeing the other person's frail appearance, I felt no sympathy, but rather annoyance at being offended by their "acting".

"She really is a cunning little fox," Evelyn thought to herself with a cold sneer.
"I haven't even really gotten to the point yet, and she's already putting on this act of being bullied? Who is she trying to impress? What a hypocritical bitch!" Evelyn curled her red lips into a predatory smile, her tone laced with sarcasm.
"Lord Lynn is indeed shrewd; he's raised such a 'little darling' who can't bear the slightest grievance. She's always weeping and feeling sorry for herself. No wonder she's able to hold her position in this Hall of Life and win the Lord's favor so much..."

Lynn only asked one question, but the two of them were like a powder keg that had been lit, and they started fighting again in an instant.

The word "favored" was especially painful for Astrid, as it felt like needles piercing her heart.

Evelyn thought this was a sarcastic remark about her rise to power, but little did she know that those two words had stirred up Astrid's painful memories from the past.

That was in the Eluria Royal Palace, where Lynn, in front of her, took back Jess in an almost ruthless and cold manner.

In Astrid's broken heart, Evelyn's刁难 (difficulties/challenges) seemed to be a hint from Lynn:
Lynn not only doesn't care about someone like her who can be replaced at any time, but has even found a more vibrant and obedient successor to mock her melancholy.

"No... please stop torturing me like this."

Astrid's voice trembled violently, and tears finally broke free, streaming down her pale, pretty face.
"If you truly despise me and wish for my death, then please, sir, just do it directly... Stop using others to humiliate me."

The balance of power is tied to Astrid, therefore Astrid's life and death are in Lynn's control, and only in Lynn's control.

Therefore, Astrid did not have the ability to commit suicide and could only act like a puppet. In Astrid's eyes, this was Lynn's revenge on her.

The desire for revenge for everything that happened in the Spirit Eye Forge is what torments her heart so much...

As soon as she finished speaking, the stunningly beautiful purple-haired witch didn't look at Lynn again, clutched her chest, turned around, and stormed out the door, leaving only her back view.

This sudden breakdown left Evelyn stunned.

Her arrogant expression, which had been one of jealousy, froze on her face, her beautiful eyes filled with astonishment and confusion.

It's not entirely Evelyn's fault.

She was unaware of Astrid's past as a "scapegoat" for the Spirit-Eyed Wizard, and even less aware of the horrific tragedy of losing her child.

As for Beverly or Helen, even if they knew what was going on, they would never dare to discuss the adults' forbidden experiments behind their backs, so they never revealed a word to her.

In Evelyn's mind, she was still the "mistress" who had been waiting in another dimension, while Astrid was the "mistress" who had all the advantages of the time and place and lived a life of luxury by the adults' side.

This conflict, caused by information asymmetry, ultimately turned into a farce.

Fortunately, only Lynn, Astrid, Beverly, and Evelyn were in the hall at that moment.

This absurd and chaotic family feud did not diminish Lynn's prestige as the great Morning Star Wizard in the eyes of his followers.

"What exactly is going on?!"

Evelyn's beautiful eyes widened as she looked at the man on the sofa who remained unmoved. Her stunningly beautiful face was filled with deep shock and confusion.

Even though she was slow to realize it, she could still sense the unusual, deathly stillness emanating from it.

Seeing that Astrid was on the verge of heartbreak, Lynn remained seated to the side, his eyes showing no pity whatsoever, not even the slightest fluctuation of emotion.

This indifferent, almost objectifying attitude shows no trace of "doting on his wife".

Could it be that the "favor of the mistress" that I've been imagining all along was just a ridiculous misunderstanding from the very beginning?

"Ugh... this is such a hassle."

Lynn rubbed his chin helplessly, a self-deprecating smile creeping onto his face.

He wondered how the other Morning Star elders in the Wizarding Council would handle such a situation.

Those guys are all extreme egoists; their rationality has long since chilled to the bone.

Even though they kept beautiful women as playthings, they would never allow any of them to "make a scene" in front of them.

If any woman dared to give the Morning Star Wizard such a hard time, she would most likely be stripped of her mind the next day and turned into a beautiful and eternally preserved specimen in the laboratory.

From this perspective, Lynn did not consider himself a "monster" who had completely severed all human desires.

Although he was ruthless, he still retained some embers of human warmth towards the two women with whom he had intimate relationships.

Although the two were causing him a lot of trouble, he did not resort to destructive methods to quell the unrest like other wizards.

However, someone has to clean up this mess.

"Sir...should I go and explain things to Lady Evelyn?"

Just then, Beverly, who had been secretly laughing and watching this "battle royale" with great interest, finally stopped laughing.

She leaned down lightly and breathed softly into Lynn's ear, her voice barely audible.

"go Go……"

Lynn glanced sideways at Evelyn, who stood there looking bewildered like a "silly girl," and waved her hand, signaling Beverly to fill in the gaps in the forgotten history of this beauty who had come from afar.

Beverly accepted the order and approached Evelyn with delicate and graceful steps.

She took Evelyn's hands, which were slightly stiff with nervousness, and began to recount the decades-long feud in detail.

This cause and effect, spanning countless years, unfolds slowly in Beverly's soft narration, starting from when Lynn was still as humble as an ant, while Astrid was still the unapproachable "Black Dragon Witch" who almost took his life.
The story recounts the cruel truth of how the master and servant were switched positions and the blood feud was reversed; it also tells of the hypocritical marriage between the two, which was never based on any affection but solely on absolute control and cold-blooded scheming.

Finally, Beverly lowered her voice and recounted the scene that had recently occurred in the palace of Eluria: how Lynn, like harvesting ripe crops, personally stripped away and took away the "offspring" that Astrid regarded as her entire life.

Although Beverly's account was extremely broad and contained an astonishing amount of information, Evelyn was no ordinary weak woman; she was a fully-fledged Gold Alchemist.

In the wizarding system, this would be equivalent to a fully realized Level 3 Archmage. Her soul strength was enough for her to unravel this complex situation in an instant.

She finally understood.

Astrid was not the "beloved wife" she had imagined, who enjoyed the emperor's exclusive favor. On the contrary, the purple-haired woman was more like a trophy that had been given a title and imprisoned in a gilded cage.

The mistress? No, she was just a high-ranking female slave with a false title.

If we're talking about the slightest bit of favoritism in Lynn's heart, she, living in a different dimension, is far, far stronger than Astrid, who is right next to her.

However, Astrid was clearly not the kind of plaything that could be discarded at will. Otherwise, if it were a Morning Star Wizard, she would have had her soul erased long ago for giving Lynn such a disrespectful look.

"Hmph... It's all your fault. Who told you to be so 'lustful and greedy' and even take your old nemesis into your room? That's why you've caused so much trouble..."

Evelyn's face flushed red. Although she knew she had caused trouble with her recklessness and felt a little guilty, she still stubbornly blamed Lynn. She parted her red lips slightly and gave a soft, coquettish scolding.

Lynn looked at the alluring woman in his arms, who now possessed a touch of arrogance. His Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and the coldness in his eyes was replaced by a burning sense of aggression.

He flashed, leaving a trail of blurry afterimages, and instantly appeared beside Evelyn.

Without warning, Lynn's large hand reached out and forcefully grabbed Evelyn's soft and slender waist, then rolled her up and slammed her warm and delicate body into his arms.

"Lust and greed?" Lynn lowered his head slightly, chuckled softly before those captivating eyes, his voice deep and magnetic, "I am indeed very greedy right now... So, are you ready to satisfy Lord Lynn?"

Admittedly, Lynn felt a cold barrier of "exploitation" and "debt" between herself and Astrid, making it difficult for her to feel any interest in flirting.

But he seemed much more unrestrained with Evelyn.

Lynn tilted her head slightly and gently yet domineeringly bit Evelyn's pink and glistening earlobe.

"No...not here...there are people watching..."

Evelyn's body trembled violently, as if her bones had been removed. She could only close her eyes tightly and murmur in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, trying to maintain the last shred of dignity of an alchemist.

However, she did not realize that the moment Lynn made her move, the head maid Beverly had already vanished silently into the shadows.

Her emerald green eyes remained calm as she deftly and considerately closed the heavy marble door behind her.

In the opulent living room, only the scene of Lynn lifting the stunningly beautiful woman into his arms and striding towards the depths of the wizard's tower remained... (End of Chapter)
