Lama’s sudden attack naturally attracted the attention of many people.
Among these alard Casters, Auburnheim of the "Book Study Club" directly spoke out loudly.
"Ronald, what’s going on?"
Unlike the general populace who fell into panic, this elderly Caster imdiately grasped the direction from which the Spell had been initiated and looked in that direction. When he saw Ronald, who was quite disheveled and even had the Sword of Saint Catherine out, he naturally realized there were so underlying issues.
Auburnheim’s status among these Casters was unquestionable.
Therefore, as soon as he spoke, the crowd between Ronald and Auburnheim automatically parted, allowing the two to see each other clearly.
Gazing at the elderly Caster at the other end of the aisle.
Ronald, while feeling all his Spells return to normal state, prioritized resetting the "Guardian Angel" protection before explaining seriously to Auburnheim:
"It’s the people from the ’Nine Commandnts Conclave’."
"The demon that Salaman summoned just now, I had encountered it once in Berenwich."
"..."
The words were greeted first by silence.
Those Casters who knew about the Nine Commandnts Conclave could instantly understand the incident, and those who didn’t know... could only look at the two conversing in utter confusion.
As a leader implicitly recognized by those present, Auburnheim scanned the shabby castle hall and then continued to ask:
"Mr. Ronald, I understand that you’ve just been through a battle. However, concerning the issue of the mastermind, I hope you can provide so evidence convincing enough."
"..."
Ronald frowned.
He understood Auburnheim’s caution but did not mind pondering maliciously about this stern-looking old man. Representing Spring’s official power, to maintain order, he might make so questionable choices.
Not to ntion, around the castle, Ronald also clearly saw a few investigators approaching his direction.
With everyone involved in the trial of originals, Ronald being the only one bearing marks of battle made it impossible for others to fully trust him, even if he was indeed a friendly Caster on Spring’s side.
However, just as Ronald was contemplating how to handle the situation, Mou Li from the crowd stepped forward to help him.
Also a Caster from the "Book Study Club," the young woman quickly walked through the crowd to Auburnheim’s side, imdiately helping to explain:
"Everyone, I can vouch for Ronald."
"Just when Salaman summoned the demon earlier, Ronald had specifically asked about the Summoning Magic and even ntioned the identity of that demon!"
Looking at Mou Li eagerly helping to explain.
Auburnheim sighed softly and then shifted his gaze to the other end of the crowd.
There, the Caster who had previously summoned Demon Ra at the conference stood on the ground. Hearing the exchange of a few people, this middle-aged man clenched his sleeves, furrowed his brows, and his face bore a very unpleasant expression.
"Mr. Auburnheim, I represent Salaman in attending this conference! I will naturally cooperate with your investigation concerning the summoned creature, but I ask you to maintain absolute seriousness."
Salaman is quite a substantial organization on the mystical side.
Although their main activities are not in Gred’s mainland, there are definitely not a few colonies involved in their interests.
Ronald...
Salaman...
The Nine Commandnts Conclave...
The disrupted mystical side conference...
And the dilapidated White Shore Castle in front of them...
Contemplating this troubling news, Oppenheim had already anticipated the difficulties of the situation.
At the mont, he represented the official power.
The matters he was facing were indeed troubleso.
Though feeling sowhat helpless, Oppenheim still spoke out of duty,
"Since that is the case, I ask that you all cooperate with the elite mbers of the investigation bureau. Being rashly involved in such dangerous matters, I believe everyone hopes to be able to..."
"Mr. Oppenheim, I have a question!"
Suddenly, a man’s voice interrupted Oppenheim.
Looking towards the source of the voice, it was a rugged-faced, well-built man with neatly grood black hair intermingled with a streak of tied-back white hair, adding a deep allure to his handso deanor.
"During the recent attack, Mr. Ronald’s body clearly suffered so injuries."
"For his safety, let take Mr. Ronald for so treatnt!"
The man’s tone was very assertive.
The emphasis was clear in his first sentence.
And as Oppenheim looked at the man that had now stepped forward, his expression was unprecedentedly serious.
"Laleye, we can handle Mr. Ronald’s injuries..."
The man imdiately interrupted Oppenheim again,
"Oppenheim, are you planning to let the hero who fought against the ’Nine Commandnts’ evil plan drag himself wounded back to the city to receive your so-called professional treatnt?"
"Be sensible!"
"Among those present, who understands the human body better than I do? Who can match the efficiency of my dical magic? Everyone here is a person of standing, and naturally, they will cooperate with your efforts once we return to the city!"
"..."
After the man finished speaking, Oppenheim’s expression imdiately turned unpleasant.
But considering everything that had transpired that night at White Shore Castle,
He finally gave in:
"Go ahead, and please make sure to visit the investigation bureau once you’re back in the city."
"Regarding the specific circumstances of this incident, Springs here will surely give everyone a proper explanation..."
Oppenheim continued to speak there.
anwhile, the man who had argued with him was already approaching Ronald with a hearty smile.
Making a gesture of courtesy with one hand, he then addressed Ronald,
"Mr. Ronald, I am pleased to et you here."
"I am Laleye, the head of the Entreloyd ’Erdis’ School. If you don’t mind, allow to treat your injuries."
"..."
Staring at the man for several seconds,
Ronald nodded in agreent, his expression complex.
This oddly familiar na, Laleye, was not new to him.
His boss, who had arranged a series of ’distinctive’ nas, including that of Heroys from the Entreloyd spy agency, used the public na Laleye!
If he wasn’t mistaken, this caster was also the holder of the "Human Body Construction" book!
So, after the previous stronghold was removed,
Was this guy entering the country personally under a diplomatic identity to stir up trouble?
