Chapter 149 Divergence

While Dorothy and Anna were playing outside, in the Headmaster's office...

Kane rested his hands on the desk, looking seriously at Gareth, who was bowing his head and remaining silent.

"Dean Gareth, are you aware that some of your students have violated regulations by coming into contact with abyssal magic?"

"Huh?" Gareth looked up, somewhat bewildered.

Then he shook his head blankly.

"Are there apprentices or teachers who handle such dangerous things?"

Kane looked down at Gareth's expression.

This doubt didn't seem feigned.

Kane then told Gareth everything he had seen on his way there.

Gareth, who was initially clueless, began to react after hearing Kane's explanation.

"A short, dark elf, a very young-looking apprentice—"

The characteristic was so obvious. Gareth didn't even need a second to guess who Kane was talking about.

Gareth was initially worried because one of his students had come into contact with dangerous abyssal magic, but his worries disappeared after he guessed who it was.

If it were that witch, then her use of abyssal magic wouldn't be considered dangerous.

Although the witch race itself is synonymous with danger.

"Ahem, Marquis Kane need not worry about that person."

"Hmm?" Kane asked, sounding puzzled.

Gareth chuckled and reached into the drawer under his desk.

Then he pulled out a stack of clean white papers.

Kane took the paper with some doubt, and the first thing that caught his eye was a series of elegant characters.

"Investigation Report on the Abyss Magic Activity Cycle?"

The very first line left Kane somewhat bewildered.

Gareth chuckled and explained, "The two you're talking about are Miss Anna and Miss Dorothy; they're both experts in magic."

"Previously, Miss Dorothy accompanied Miss Anna to the Toughwood Forest to investigate the magic of the abyss. The report you have here is the result of that investigation."

Kane casually flipped through a few pages of the report in his hand.

"What's the use of this? We already knew there were frequent magical fluctuations in the Toughwood Forest, didn't we?"

Gareth nodded: "That's right, we knew about it and recorded the approximate cycle, but we didn't have this detailed information. Based on Miss Dorothy's report, we have a clearer understanding of what happened in the Gritwood Forest."

"Miss Dorothy usually writes down her research on abyssal magic in this detailed written form and gives it to me. I find it quite useful."

In fact, the reports Gareth had were all made up by Dorothy, and contained a lot of meaningless and irrelevant information.

But what can they do when they've never seen what an official report looks like?

The main purpose of this report was to reassure Gareth, since Dorothy usually practiced her abyssal magic outside the city.

He then took this item out to show Marquis Kane.

Kane only glanced at it twice before finding the report insightful, and he quickly became engrossed in it.

"On the Influence of Abyssal Magic —"

"A Brief Analysis of the Reasons for the Formation of Magical Tides —"

"The positive and negative effects of the abyssal magic —"

Kane was completely engrossed in just a few simple questions.

Kane exclaimed excitedly, "Where is the person who wrote this?! He certainly has a deep understanding of abyssal magic!"

The person who wrote this report must have an extraordinary understanding of magic and must be a great mage!

Kane already held the magician who wrote the report in high esteem.

Gareth took a leisurely sip of tea and said to Kane in a low voice, "My lord, as I just mentioned, the human you encountered on your way here is the author of this report."

"What?!" Kane's eyes widened.

He couldn't believe it.

Kane gestured his name in front of his chest with his hand, then realized it was a bit too high and lowered his hand down.

"I was talking about that little guy, he looks like he hasn't even grown all his teeth yet."

Gareth nodded. "But he's a reliable magician, isn't he?"

Upon hearing this, Kane immediately wore a constipated expression. He looked down at the report in his hand and nodded stiffly.

dong dong dong.

Just then, there was a knock on the door, followed by Renee's voice from outside.

"Is Principal Gareth in?"

"Come in."

As Gareth's voice faded, the door opened, and Renee stepped into the room.

"Headmistress Gareth, Marquis Kane," Renee greeted him first, then looked at Marquis Kane.

This was clearly a silent inquiry into Kane's condition.

Kane handed the report to Renee with a conflicted expression.

"Hmm?" Renee tilted her head slightly in confusion, but she still took the report.

At this point, the Marquis of Kane gave her an explanation.

"It was written by the two people we encountered. Although we don't know their strength, they are very knowledgeable about abyssal magic, and they are also trusted by Principal Gareth."

Renee quickly flipped through the report in her hand.

She had to admit that the content above was indeed very well written.

"However, abyssal magic is still a very dangerous thing. Principal Gareth, since you know they are researching abyssal magic, you should have stopped them immediately."

Gareth shook his head slightly: "Your Highness, although I would like to do the same, it is Anna who employs Dorothy, and Dorothy has also shared her research with us, so I have no reason to stop them."

The allure of the abyss's magic is indeed immense.

Gareth would absolutely not allow Dorothy to gain control of the Abyss magic and use it around the Apprentice City.

However, since Dorothy has revealed a portion of her research on abyssal magic, Gareth will have to think twice.

These powerful and somewhat older mages were well aware of the immense power of abyssal magic.

If Gareth doesn't have any extraordinary encounters in his life, he will have no hope of breaking through to become a Grand Magus if things continue like this.

Although the abyssal magic could not help him break through the level, it could enhance his magical power to the level of a Grand Magus.

Faced with such temptation, Gareth chose to turn a blind eye to Dorothy and Anna.

Anna glared at Gareth with some anger, then turned to look at Kane.

Marquis Kane —

1

Just as Anna spoke, Marquis Kane frowned slightly and chose to close his eyes.

His action clearly indicated that he had chosen to side with Gareth.

Having reached the pinnacle of magic, Kane had been clueless for many years about how to break through to the level of a Grandmaster.

Kane saw an existence capable of studying abyssal magic appear before him and immediately sensed an opportunity.

If he could thoroughly study the report in his hands, and even gain some understanding of the abyssal magic, wouldn't he have a chance to become a mage?

That would make him even more powerful, both within the Blackwood family and in the Kingdom of Radiance.

Renee slowly exhaled, placed the report in her hand on the table, and turned to walk outside.

"In short, I will not allow this kind of danger to exist in the human world."
