Sword Sorcery

Chapter 235 Decision
(Well, I typed the name wrong, it should be Fanny instead of Jenny, it has been changed.)
"Now, the meeting begins!"

After finishing speaking, Ms. Fanny stood up first, facing Aaron with one hand, and made an introduction gesture: "Of course, before the official meeting, let us welcome the new members—"

"Qiana's student, Aaron, was successfully promoted to an elemental wizard, adding a new wave of blood to the academy before the start of the war. This is a pleasing and good sign."

"Let's congratulate Aaron on becoming an MP!"

Fanny clapped her hands first, and with her taking the lead, all the wizards in the hall applauded.

Only about 20 wizards were really applauding, and the remaining less than 40 other wizards were obviously perfunctory, resulting in the applause not being enthusiastic, and the whole scene seemed a little awkward.

This situation caught Aaron's eyes, allowing him to understand the situation——

"It seems that those who are applauding should belong to the dean's faction, and they are also wizards born in common people."

"The rest of the wizards should belong to the three major wizarding families, which are equivalent to the 'noble' class in the wizarding society. They and the wizards who have been promoted from the common people don't like each other."

"Except for a few official wizards who are stationed at the resource point, the official wizards of the entire academy are basically present. It can be inferred that there are less than 80 official wizards in the entire academy."

"According to the proportion present, the number of noble wizards is twice as large as that of civilian wizards, but they belong to three families, and they are not monolithic with each other."

Aaron rubbed his forehead, he was sure of the current situation, and he also understood Ms. Fanny's situation, and he was not very optimistic - the number of civilian wizards was relatively small, mainly due to the mutual restraint between the three major families, and The strong strength of Ms. Fanny finally formed a delicate balance between the two sides.

Some embarrassing scenes did not last long, and Ms. Fanny had already guessed this situation, and she chose to turn a blind eye to other people's disapproval——

"Okay, the welcome is over, and it's time for us to talk about business."

Fanny sat down again, patted the table lightly, and the entire hall was darkened. Small witchcraft lamps lit up on the edge of the giant round table, emitting a burst of soft light, reflecting the meeting room in a kind of past life. Wonderful feeling of 'meeting'.

Bang bang bang bang
Fanny clapped her palms, and a witchcraft screen lit up behind her. It was a canvas board made of the skin of monsters and witchcraft spells, and various images could be drawn directly on it with mental power—like Aaron The projector in the previous life, and in comparison, the witchcraft screen is much more convenient.

"Everyone, you all know that we are about to start a full-scale war with the Hand of the Storm."

As soon as the words fell, a map appeared on the witchcraft screen behind Fanny, which was the surrounding environment of the Misty Academy. At the same time, several red marks were densely dotted on the map.

Aaron observed carefully and found that the Blighted Forest he passed was also marked in red—obviously, the red dots represented enemy wizards, and this was a map of the Storm Hand's troops!
"Presumably, everyone here can see that this is a map of the deployment of the Storm Hand."

Fanny smiled slightly, pointed to a circle of red punctuation near the Misty Academy, and explained to everyone: "This layout map is drawn based on the places where the students who returned to the Academy were attacked—this shows that , most of the wizards of the Stormhand were sent out, and completely surrounded our Misty Swamp."

Hearing this, the wizards beside the round table couldn't help but commotion, discussing something in private.

They are all aristocratic wizards from the three major families. On the other hand, the commoner wizards are still sitting in their seats, obviously knowing the news in private.

Aaron couldn't help being surprised, because Ms. Fanny's words revealed a message——

The Misty Academy urgently recalled the students on missions, not only to have enough cannon fodder to replace the consumption of official wizards when the war started.

At the same time, the Misty Academy also arranged for them to "explore the way" - to use the lives of a large number of students to find out the enemy's troop layout!
It is impossible for the Hand of the Storm to intercept all the students, and there must be a few who slipped through the net. When they returned to the Misty Academy, the Academy of the Mist also learned of the deployment of the Hand of the Storm's troops, which can be described as a 'good move'!
The Black Wizard Academy puts its own interests first, and everything is a bargaining chip on the scale—rather than sending more valuable official wizards to explore the way, it is better to let the low-value students take advantage of the opportunity to use their residual heat!
Fortunately, Fanny reminded Qiyana cryptically, otherwise, Aaron would also be a victim of this 'Pathfinder'!
Of course, only the wizards can know about this matter, and the students are still kept in the dark, unaware that they were once used by the Mist Academy.

At this time, a middle-aged man spoke first, "Fanny, what can you do? From the map, the hand of the storm has already surrounded us, and as the dean, what's your trick?"

Aaron learned through Kiyana's voice transmission that this middle-aged man is the patriarch of the Cole family, Laurie, who, like Kiyana, is at the peak of the elemental realm, only one step away from the gaseous wizard.

Laurie's tone was very direct, without any hint of politeness, which clearly represented the attitude of the Cole family.

The two patriarchs of the Noyce family and the Langdon family next to her also shifted their gazes to Fanny, waiting for her reply—in other words, they were putting pressure on Fanny.

Fanny stroked her blond hair with one hand, and responded unhurriedly: "We 'sneaked' out, most of the personnel in the Hand of the Storm are outside, and the defenses of other resource points must be empty, so we took the opportunity to attack their resources point."

"What? Ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Laurie seemed to have heard some joke, and instead snorted coldly: "Fanny, I'm waiting for your serious answer. Everyone's time is precious, so stop joking!"

"What about the Misty Swamp if we're all out?"

The head of the Langdon family next to him, Louis, also echoed: "That's right, if the hands of the storm find out that our personnel have chosen to come out in full force, they will definitely take the opportunity to storm the Misty Swamp. At that time, if we lose this base , obviously the gain outweighs the loss!"

Fanny shook her head, but calmly said a word: "We stay in the Misty Swamp, and you form an offensive team to attack the resource points of the Hand of the Storm."

As soon as the words came out, the noble wizards couldn't help but their eyes lit up, and Laurie hurriedly said, "Are you serious?"

Fanny knocked on the table and said calmly——

"I was serious!"
