As one of the two main parties to the dispute, the story of Marlowe certainly has follow-up. But don't worry, let's drag the progress bar forward a little and pull the time back to the afternoon of the day.
Compared with the ridiculous family meeting of the Augustine family, the situation of the Witt family is much more serious.
"... well, since people say so, how can we disappoint others? Hum, does he really think he can fight a family on his own?"
"Even if his real name is dihull, I don't mind letting him understand how the dihull family was completely overturned!"
The head of the Witt family was born almost at the same time as Dumbledore and is now old. However, as a wizard, age is usually a symbol of strength. In addition, the Witt family, which is based on magic research, is not comparable to the Augustine family once it breaks out.
It can be seen that the white bearded and white haired old wizard has the ability to convince everyone in the family.
"Barnes and noble, go and write a letter to clarify the attitude of the Witt family towards the recapture of Charlotte Witt. Although an unsuccessful younger generation of the family is nothing to us, since tamaka McLean dares to provoke in his own name, how can we not make the due response of a large family?"
In the study, the old master opened his eyes slightly, and the fierceness in his eyes loomed. After a slight pause, he gently added:
"Go! After this letter is written, it will be directly sent to that McClane... This will be the ultimatum given to him by our Witt family!"
Barno, the housekeeper, stood by the desk, listened with a calm face, and then bowed his head deeply.
Although the old owner didn't express his determination too directly, Barnes and noble could clearly feel the meaning contained in it.
"OK, I'll go now."
After hearing this, the old man just nodded slightly and closed his eyes again. He leaned back in his chair indifferently, as if the incident this morning had failed to leave a ripple in his plain heart.
However, it is not without reason that the old Victor is so indifferent now.
When Butler bano left the study and closed the door silently, the inner door on the side of the desk opened again.
Then, a familiar figure suddenly came out.
"Old Mr. Witt, are you really going to stand against that Marca McLean?"
The old man sitting behind the desk didn't open his eyes when he heard the sound. He just pulled the corners of his mouth slightly.
"It only depends on whether he will hand over my granddaughter after receiving the letter." he said slowly, "the right of choice has been handed over to him."
The man couldn't help shaking his head when he heard the old master say so.
"Oh, but this option, in fact, I prefer to be controlled by our side."
However, the old owner suddenly opened his eyes, and a pair of cold eyes suddenly stabbed at the side door.
"Hum, what I want to do is my freedom." he stared at each other coldly. "Mr. ASA, all you need to do is sit down and enjoy it slowly..."
"... remember what I said before? I will put what you want in front of you, which is your due reward. As for the process, you don't need and don't want to interfere!"
Victor's voice is a little low, and there is also a sense of relaxation unique to the elderly. But no matter how old the old man is, the pressure in this discourse is still as strong as a mountain, which makes people's heart pressure increase sharply.
It is also a deal with a large ancient wizard family. ASA bears a much greater load than Miriam.
"All right, all right!" he quickly raised his hands and said helplessly, "old Mr. Witt, do what you want. I won't say half a word more nonsense."
"Don't worry..." the old master's face suddenly calmed down again, but he saw him drooping his eyelids again and comforting slowly. "Since Mr. ASA can trust me and give me such things first, I have to be worthy of your trust. I will let you know that our Witt family is worthy of trust."
Asaph twisted the hood edge of his black robe and silently glanced - is it worth believing? If the old man didn't want him to continue to take out more "deals", could he still stand here and talk to each other equally?
Of course, for the current ASA, these are secondary.
"I'll wait and see," he nodded slightly. "Moreover, as long as the transaction is successfully completed, our 'boss' will continue to cooperate with your family... Then I'll leave first for the time being."
However, Asaph didn't even speak when he heard a "click" sound from the door of the study. Assarton was alert and immediately stepped back two steps and hurried back to the inside of the study.
When he pulled the doorknob and closed the door silently, the door connecting the corridor outside the study was pushed open at the same time.
"Who? Why not knock... Barnes and noble?"
The old master frowned slightly and wanted to question, but he saw that the housekeeper who had just left came in. He and bano were already familiar, so he couldn't help taking back the scolding from his mouth.
It's just that bano is the most disciplined person on weekdays. It's not normal to break into the study without knocking this time.
Is there something urgent?
But just as old Barnes and noble closed the door behind his back and walked towards him with a leisurely pace, the old owner finally patted the table and stood up.
"You're not Barnes and noble! Who the hell are you?"
While talking, old Witt moved as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, he took out his wand and aimed at the comer. Just looking at his neat figure, he doesn't look like an old white bearded old man.
"Buzz -"
If there is a wave like nothing, it spreads from the tip of the staff, followed by a powerful soul magic. Such means of directly attacking the enemy's soul will not be the patent of Maka. It is also the specialty of the Witt family!
Unfortunately, I'm afraid I've found the wrong opponent for this great soul impact that threatens ordinary wizards.
Yes, the characteristic of soul magic is that it is very fast. When used at close range, it will even make the opponent hit the move before he has time to respond.
But on the contrary, as long as the opponent has the ability to block, the caster will inevitably bear the effect of backfire.
Just for a moment, the old owner felt a whirl in front of him, and his whole body was numb. If he hadn't used his real strength just now, the soul vibration from the feedback would be enough to make him fall to the ground on the spot.
"Has the soul magic of the Witt family been inherited... It seems a little different from my current understanding?"
"Old Barnes and noble" was speaking carelessly when he suddenly saw a frown in his eyebrows. Then he raised his left hand and rubbed his temples like he was tired.
"Well... This body is really bad. Even the previous boy's is better than this."
After mumbling, he raised his eyes and glanced at the old Victor opposite.
It can be seen that the old master has separated from the state of reverse phagocytosis at this time. There was a flash of surprise in his eyes, but the palm holding the wand was still stable.
Obviously, he still maintained a calm commensurate with his strength on the whole.
However, the dark alert in that look is ready to come out.
"Why so serious?"
"Old Barnes and noble" spread his hands. He didn't care about old Witt's ready appearance. He took two steps and sat down directly on the sofa next to him.
"Sit down, too! There's no need to be so restrained. I'm just here to confirm something for the time being..." he let his body sink into the soft sofa and seemed to relax his muscles.
Old Witt, who was still standing behind the desk, held the table lightly, stared at each other for a long time, and finally sat back in silence.
Just now, the other party didn't even move when he resisted the impact of the soul. This is a situation that old Witt has never imagined since he learned the soul magic inherited by the family.
Looking at the familiar face that belonged to bano, the old owner had to shake his head in his heart.
"This... Sir?" old Witt found that he couldn't even confirm the other party's gender. "You occupied Barney's body and came to me to 'confirm' what?"
"Hmm..." after a little meditation on the strategy, he waved his hand and said, "there was only one thing, but when you just said an interesting 'hello' to me, it became two -"
"Tell me, since your Witt family still retains the inheritance of flexible magic, why not strive for a better position in today's magic world? If you want, you can obviously do that at any time?"
Old Victor was stunned when he heard the speech.
Can it be said that this strong man who ran out of nowhere does not belong to any ancient wizard family? Otherwise, how could he ask such a question?
"This......" old Witt paused and hesitated, "don't you know?"
"Hmm? Should I know?" the other party said carelessly, "just say it, or do you want me to 'please' you before you say it?"
"Er," the old master rubbed the wand in his hand, and then slowly said, "if you don't know, the reason is a little long..."
After that, the old owner gently told me something about the past. Although he did not experience it himself, this is something that every ancient wizard family knows.
But he didn't know that a leading role in that matter was in front of him.
