The powerful air currents generated by the Ascension technique propelled the mage through the air, and it was not long before he reached the sky above the Luxendil Mansion.

He had just felt a smell of blood emanating from this mansion.

Although the aura was not very strong, it did not escape Penny's induction.

This is unusual as the mage's dwelling is usually wrapped in layers of enchantments, and if a smell leaks, it means that the mansion is likely to have been attacked, so that the protection will break.

He hesitated for a moment, but finally suppressed his curiosity to find out, and did not descend further.

Instead, it was hidden a little farther away.

Most of the red-robed mages are sensitive and conservative, not only the red-robed, but most of the mages above Faeron are like this, relying on the study of supernatural and mysterious powers to gain power, and all the mages are very careful to hide themselves.

It's as if a wounded beast would be carefully hidden, and if a wizard encounters a sudden accident, if it doesn't immediately make a big noise, it means that the mage doesn't want anyone to know about it.

At this time, I came over, and there was no doubt that I was bored.

However, things did not turn out as he had thought, for soon the soldiers who had arrived from near the Governor's Palace let him know that the seriousness of the matter was beyond his expectations.

Many red-robed mages or apprentices who inquired about the news flew out from all directions, and it seemed that there were not a few people who were alarmed by this sudden incident.

"Oh, what's going on here?"

Some of the mages had already begun to ask the soldiers why. Penny leaned over and listened to the soldier's leader's answer:

"Oh, Lord Moster was the victim of a very dangerous assassination. His attendants went to the Doge's palace to report the incident, and we were ordered to come. The officer's reply was rigorous and polite, and his voice was so loud that Penny felt like a spokesman for the various media in his previous life.

When the surrounding red robes heard the news, they all showed different expressions.

Hearing the news of Luxendier's assassination, Penny felt a little worried.

If the person dies, then his plans will be thwarted.

Fortunately, the following words of the press spokesman put him at ease:

"Lord Most is fine now, we have been ordered to lock down the entire city to hunt down the Assassin, he is seriously injured, if you can find a clue, please inform the Governor's Palace......"

Hearing that Luxendiel was unharmed, Penny was relieved, and some of the mages around him had happy expressions on their faces, while others became a little unpleasant.

Penny knew in his stomach that it was impossible for a mage to be without political enemies, and there were more than one or two people who hoped that Lusendir would die sooner.

When most of the red-robed men had walked away, he walked up to the door and asked the officer, "May I allow me to meet Master Most?"

As allies and nominal assistants, it should be necessary etiquette to visit after an emergency.

"Uh...... I'm sorry," the officer politely replied when he saw a red-robed mage interviewing, "Lord Most has just moved his quarters. ”

"Shifted?" Penny's brow furrowed immediately.

This is a sign that Lusendier has been badly damaged.

Otherwise it would not have been possible to change the dwelling, apparently fearing that his enemies would take advantage of it.

He began to worry about whether Lusendier would get in the way of his election in a few days.

Although he knew that Luxendier's election was a sure thing, Penny still had some worries in his heart...... Behind him, a smile appeared on the face of the high-ranking mentor named Del Songpaya when he heard the guard answer Penny's words.

Seeing this smile, the hidden worry in Penny's heart suddenly turned into a bad ...... A red robe who is good at controlling emotions will become 'moody', indicating that the mood in the heart is very high.

I don't know why, although I don't have enough information, Penny suddenly has such a not-so-wonderful omen in his heart.

This incident will definitely affect the election campaign.

The sign became even more evident when the old mage looked at Penny with a playful gaze - "Oh, you're Lusendil's assistant?"

"Hello Paja-sama. Penny hurriedly saluted.

"Well, don't be polite, it looks like you've really come for nothing this time. The old mage shook his head and walked away from Penny with a thud, his words making the omen in Penny's heart come true: "He took everyone for fools......"

He passed by Penny, his tone becoming low and eerie, "But he really thought that no one in the Mage Society would know that his father was a fellow villager of Feinstein?"

For a moment, Penny was stunned.

The old mage glanced at Penny, spit out a soft snort through his nose, and walked away with his flying spell.

Penny's mind was a mess.

He still underestimated the wisdom of the red-robed mages.

The things that were originally nine out of ten were immediately covered with countless heavy fogs.

However, his good psychological quality made him calm down as soon as possible, and he still needs to inform Zhan Huashi as soon as possible about this matter, and then discuss countermeasures.

In Sazahar, he needed a solid alliance that would give him enough support, either to cover up the Inquisition's involvement, and second, to give him more support from an ally above the name.

So the dean's affiliation is very important to him.

He turned and walked down the alleyway back to his residence, thinking about things in his mind, when suddenly he noticed something unusual in a dark street corner dozens of feet in front of him...... A dying living being.

He stopped, frowned, and walked towards that place, and when he got closer, he saw a messy garbage heap in which a badly injured man had blocked the spell from peeking into it with something like a spell barrier, but it hadn't escaped Penny's close-up perception.

He hesitated slightly, and walked over to pick up the garbage heap, revealing a stubble face.

The mage was stunned for a moment, because he had seen this man.

In the next moment, the two eyes on this face opened like lightning, revealing a sharp gaze like lightning, and Penny was taken aback, his neck already pressed against a cold blade.

However, the blade did not sink any further, for after a split second, the ferocity in the man's gaze turned to consternation.

"It's you?!"

...... It was early in the morning, and the sky was slightly bright.

The girl lay on the long chaise longue, and the poor quality of sleep throughout the night kept her in a half-dreamy and half-awake state of confusion, when she suddenly heard the sound of the door opening downstairs, she rubbed her eyes, and her spirit was slightly sober, and when she reached the staircase, she saw Penny walking up with a large man in a cloak.

"Penny, ...... is he?" the girl was startled for a moment, and was about to ask out loud, when she saw the face of the middle-aged man and covered her mouth.

Isn't this the mysterious drinker who saved the two of them once in Dehumi?

"Hide him and don't let anyone know. As Penny opened a secluded room, he told the maiden, "Don't let anyone but you reach him." ”

"Not even a teacher. He added with a serious expression.

The girl looked at the middle-aged man's dried bloodstains, her face was pale, she listened to the mage's words, she just nodded again and again, and when the mage finished ordering, she had time to ask, "What's wrong?"

"He's in a lot of trouble. Penny shook his head, "But it doesn't matter, the guards won't be looking for this. ”

It was precisely because of this that he dared to bring this person back.

Because assassinations are so common in Serge, no one knows who made a particular assassination - most likely from the Red Robe within Serre's system.

In this case, the City Watch generally does not seriously investigate, usually just for show, and does not dare to search the home of a red-robed mage.

The best way for an assassinated mage to catch the killer is to use his own minions, and secondly, to rely on allies or his family—but it is well known that Lusendier is alienated from his family, and his current allies are none other than Penny's Frass family.

So Penny wasn't worried about any trouble taking this person in.

As long as he's careful enough.

He put the middle-aged man on the bed and covered it with several layers of sheets, Penny's strength had grown drastically compared to when he was in Dehumi, and now it was obvious that the middle-aged man was covered with a layer of divine grace-like protective film, wrapping him up and making it difficult for the magic power to detect.

Still he was not at ease, and used a large string of protective magic to hide him, and then walked out of the room with the girl, only to let out a long sigh of relief.

"Penny, do you want to take a break. Hiccor didn't know too much about it, even though the mage's expression was very solemn, she wasn't so nervous in her heart, and when she saw the deep dark circles on Penny's face, she reached out and touched it a little distressed.

"Okay...... I'm going to get some sleep. Penny nodded.

This day and night back and forth with Sarnophon and Darren Moore, came back and talked with James for a long time, and spent most of the night studying spells, hard work, after he was nervous at this time, he suddenly had a sense of fatigue as if the oil had run out, and he smiled at the girl reluctantly, and then staggered his steps, and threw himself on the bed one by one, unable to move again.

Hickor looked at the hidden door, and looked with some concern at the mage, who was already breathing long, and she walked over, noticing a streak of blood on the sheets.

She was taken aback, her eyes followed the blood trail to Penny's body, only to notice a trail of blood on his neck, and she went out of the room, picked up a piece of linen, and cut it into thin strips.

She walked back to the mage's bedroom and carefully wrapped the linen around Penny's neck, a somewhat clumsy way of wrapping the wound in a few circles, and tying a bow.

It may have been this little thing that made her forget some of her troubles, and a smile appeared on her face, and she sat on the edge of the boy's bed, as if many of her worries had disappeared.

After a while, a dull knock came at the door, which woke her out of her stupor.

"Who?"

She shouted and asked, and walked briskly out of the room and down the stairs.

"Hiccol, it's me. ”

"It's Dad, why did he come so soon?"

The girl was confused, but she didn't stop and continued to move towards the gate.
