Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 242 Crisis and Regret

When Lynn Bailey proposed to attach herself to Star Embers Island, not only Moon but also Lang next to him was shocked.

Although the tribal wizards also live on the Vena Islands, they live in seclusion and never get involved in outside affairs.

This time Lang left the island as a shaman, and it was also the first time that the tribal wizard took the initiative to contact the outside world.

I didn't expect that after just two sentences, a big chamber of commerce would want to attach itself to me.

Lang had no experience in this area, so he could only watch Moon helplessly.

Moon was actually helpless. Although he had more unique experiences than others, he had never dealt with an incident where a chamber of commerce wanted to rely on him.

Besides, the Star Embers Island Magic School has not been built yet, and the teaching of new magic has just begun, but someone wants to join it again.

Moon was a little worried that his power might expand too quickly.

"Ms. Bailey, there's no need for you to do this. We can just continue to cooperate as we agreed before."

"Do not."

Hearing Moon's words, Lynn Bailey hurriedly shook her head.

"I said dependence, but actually I want the tribal wizard to save the Bailey family. If you, Mr. Scarlett, don't take action, our entire family will be finished."

As Lynn Bailey spoke, her eyes gradually turned red, and a trace of moisture tried to come out of her eyes.

"What's going on? Did you provoke some enemies?"

Although Moon had not been in contact with the Bailey family for a long time, he knew that the family had considerable assets and power, and had a wide range of social connections.

Whether in the Venetian Islands or on the mainland, business is covered.

"It's not the enemies we provoked, but the Faithless who want to swallow us up."

Seeing that Moon didn't understand, Lynn Bailey began to tell the story of them and the Faithless from the beginning.

After the Faithless occupied Solman Island, they did not suppress the local wizard forces, but instead had an attitude of recruiting them.

Especially for local forces like the Bailey family that have friendly relations with various wizarding organizations, the attitude that the Faithless have always adopted is to win them over for cooperation.

However, as the Faithless gradually gained a foothold in the Vena Islands, they began to plunder magical resources on a large scale, which inevitably led to conflicts with local wizard families.

Originally, the Faithless wanted to cooperate with the Bailey family, and the last time they rescued the poisoned Lynn Bailey was a good entry point.

But unexpectedly, their potion master never showed up, and was later interfered with by Moon.

Then the Faithless were badly defeated by the spellcasters on the island of Orem, suffering heavy losses in both wizards and various magical resources.

So after the battle to retake the island ended, the Faithless, who were in urgent need of restoring their strength, set their sights on the wealthy Bailey family.

They used Montoya's disappearance as an excuse to place three wizards in the Bailey family.

In name, they were collaborating to find the missing Montoya, but in reality, they were trying to gain access to all the business resources of the Pele family.

In order to escape this predicament, Ryan Bailey willingly took the court mage to Star Embers Island, but the result was not very good.

Now all the burdens of the entire family fell on Lynn Bailey. Naturally, she was no match for the Faithless, so she could only ask Moon for help.

"Three Faithless, are they in the castle?"

Moon's relationship with the Faithless was not very good, so when he heard the other party's name, he immediately looked around.

"They're not here right now. They've already got the Chamber of Commerce's account books. They should be checking the accounts and taking inventory at each store, preparing to take over the Chamber of Commerce's business."

Hearing that the Faithless had infiltrated to this extent, Moon felt a little embarrassed.

He now needs to purchase materials such as building schools, refining potions, and buying materials from the Bailey Chamber of Commerce.

But this Chamber of Commerce will soon be owned by the Faithless, and then he will have to find another way to purchase supplies.

"Can you call these three back in batches? Maybe I can help take care of them!"

After thinking these things through, Moon no longer hesitated.

Since the Faithless wanted to destroy his plan, Moon couldn't let him do so.

"Yes, as long as I agree to hand over the secrets of the family warehouse, they will definitely return."

Lynn Bailey was delighted when she heard Moon's words, then immediately proposed a solution. The Bailey Chamber of Commerce had been operating on the Vena Islands for hundreds of years, and the materials and wealth it had accumulated far exceeded others' imagination.

All these riches are in the Bailey family's warehouse, and only Ryan Bailey and Lynn Bailey know where the warehouse is.

If the Faithless want to quickly recover their strength and avoid being suppressed and expelled by the spellcasters, they must obtain this wealth.

"Okay, then you can notify them separately, and I will help you solve this dilemma."

There are three wizards sent to the Bailey family by the Faithless. Such a combination of strength is completely capable of restraining Ryan Bailey.

As for Lynn Bailey, who had just awakened her talent, she was not taken seriously by the unbelievers.

The non-believers wizards assigned to the nearest guild base are located in Nitzi Harbor on the main island.

That evening, he received a letter from Lynn Bailey.

After checking the business for two days, he knew very well that the Bailey family's warehouse was definitely a huge treasure trove.

In order to take all the credit and collect a batch of materials in advance, he returned to the castle alone.

However, before he reached the castle gate, he was hit by Moon's [Petrification Curse].

"No"

He had barely uttered half a word when, with a thud, the Faithless fell to the hard marble floor.

"High Priest, you acted too quickly. He fell before I was ready."

Lang, who liked to challenge people to duels on Xingjin Island, walked out from behind the stone pillar helplessly.

He originally thought that there would be a big battle, but he didn't expect that the battle would be over in less than a second.

"If it doesn't work, I'll leave the next one to you."

Moon said helplessly.

"It's a deal, you can't interfere."

Lang knew very well that no matter whether he used witchcraft or magic, he could not match Moon's speed, so he could only beg to get a chance to attack.

"Okay, I'll just watch."

Moon and Lang spoke as they carefully searched the Faithless's possessions before calling for the castle guards.

"Lock your fingers, seal your mouth, and preferably seal your eyes as well, and don't let anyone get close."

After hearing Moon's order, the castle guards who were hiding in the darkness on both sides came out in a daze.

They had originally thought that there would be a fierce and destructive battle, but they never expected it to start and end so peacefully.

"As you wish, Mr. Scarlett."

Although they had long known that Mr. and Miss Bailey respected the young wizard very much, it was not until this moment that the guards understood why Moon was respected.

This is far more respect than just a bottle of potion or an ability to discern a wizard's talent.

After all, in this world, wizards represent combat power far beyond that of ordinary people.

And Moon's spells are more powerful than those of ordinary wizards.

This made the castle guards respect the young wizard in front of them even more.

Lynne Bailey, hiding on the top floor of the castle, had also been observing the battle below through a telescope.

Because Ryan Bailey was away, she kept Anton, the strongest man in the castle, by her side to protect her.

But seeing the Faithless fall down without even reacting, Lynn Bailey still found it hard to believe.

She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until the castle guards tied up the Faithless and pressed him down.

But then, boundless regret surged into my heart.

"Ah~, if I had known earlier, I should have followed Mr. Scarlett to learn magic."
