Chapter 108: Chapter 102: Shallow Testing !

Translator: 549690339

Study room.

After deep meditation, Link regularly reflected on himself.

The incident, called revenge for Sophie Lucia, was essentially out of anger, had come to an end.

Though there may be aftershocks, they should not cause any major problems.

As long as he kept a low profile, did not act arrogantly, there should probably be no issue.

Link then turned his attention to his own progress in the cultivation.

“System.”

In a low voice, Link called out the panel.

Compared to two months ago (Chapter 67), there are only two changes in the panel.

The first is the appearance of spiritual power data in accordance to his cognition, which allows Link to know his progress in meditation without using any detection ritual or instrument.

The second change is the level of mastery of witchcraft, which is clear at a glance.

He is 32 points away from the 75-point spiritual power required for promotion to a third-class wizard apprentice.

Based on the current speed of meditation, he should make it before the mid­term exam in the spring semester.

The two-district competition will be held on the third day of the mid-term exam.

So, there seems to be ample time.

After understanding the information, he put away the panel.

Link activated a bottle of Glasswort Fragrance and fell asleep in the aromatic vapor.

The next day.

As usual, Link got up early, made himself ready, and prepared to go out.

When he opened the door to his dormitory, Link lifted his right foot and put it down again.

A dark parcel was placed outside the door.

Something was out of the ordinary.

All the items distributed by the academy are put in the large mailbox next to the door.

This parcel can only be delivered by a private person.

Link glanced to the left and right to make sure that the surveillance on both ends of the corridor was still intact, and he felt more cautious.

There are only two situations for those who place unknown parcels without disabling the surveillance camera:

One is that he can’t do it or has no consciousness about it; the other is that he doesn’t care about his whereabouts being recorded.

Link was more inclined to the second situation.

There was no other reason than intuition.

The “Defender 3202” suit, transformed into the style of Rune objects casual suit, held its power, in a passive defense state.

Link took a few steps back without closing the door, and directly took out his personal computer, first informing Jasmine to enter the study room, open the rain shield, and then requested emergency assistance from the academy.

Faced with the mysterious parcel, Link would not idiotically unpack it.

What if it was a “bomb” that exploded on contact, and he was blown to death?

Even the defense of the “Defender 3202” Suit, no matter how strong, is only a First Ring Level Magic Tool.

What if the person who left the package put a Second Ring level great weapon inside?

Although Jasmine didn’t get a specific explanation, she knew that an emergency had occurred.

She very obediently obeyed Link’s instructions.

Entering the study room, opening the rain shield, and even sending a photo to report that she was safe.

This eased a lot of anxiety in Link.

Before long, two Intelligent Law Enforcement puppets flew over.

One Intelligent Law Enforcement Puppet flew in front of Link and activated protection mode;

The other Intelligent Law Enforcement Puppet began to scan the unknown parcel.

After a few beeps, the danger was ruled out.

There were no aggressive items in the package, it was empty.

The Intelligent Law Enforcement Puppet unpacked the package on the spot, and there was only a note inside that read a few words.

“Hello, Link Grande, this is just a greeting.”

After reading the note, Link wondered to himself which godforsaken entity was causing trouble now.

There were quite a few people and organizations that he had offended.

Erick Burnalis was dead, so were Rives Francis and Antoine Hilton.

As the Wizard Palo controlled the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association”, it was unlikely they were involved.

Lanny Taylor?

It didn’t seem like her style so he dismissed that idea.

The “Sea Sail Alliance”?

The members of this pimp organization either had weak knees and were habitually submissive, or they were unprincipled and lacked a sense of self- improvement and initiative.

Link didn’t think they’d have the audacity to blatantly violate the academy’s rules to this extent.

So, after thinking it over, Link could only suspect the “Pure Blood Will” or the Lucia family.

He politely declined the Intelligent Law Enforcement Puppet’s inquiry about whether to escalate this incident further.

From what he could see, the only suspicious thing was the person who delivered the package, but there was no concrete proof that they intended harm towards him.

Escalating the matter would be pointless.

He watched as the two Intelligent Law Enforcement Puppets took away the package and the note.

Link decided to report this obviously complicated incident, which was beyond his capability to handle, to his boss.

After giving the matter some thought, Link arrived at Jasmine’s dormitory and warned her to exercise caution.

“Link, what happened?” Jasmine asked immediately when she came downstairs, safe and sound.

“Someone left a package at my door.”

Link didn’t hide anything and informed her about the situation, adding a cautionary note, “If you ever see an unknown package, don’t open it rashly, don’t even touch it.”

“Okay, I understand.”

Jasmine nodded, then asked, “So what do we do now? Do you know who is behind this?”

“No rush.”

Link gestured for Jasmine to remain calm, “We’ll go to work first and mention this to Wizard Serene, and ask her how we should handle this.”

“I understand.”

With a quick thought, Jasmine immediately understood Link’s intentions.

Without another word, the two of them left the academy and boarded a train.

Unlike other days when there were only a few passengers on the first train, today the first train was full, not a single seat was empty.

There was only one carriage in the train, hence there was no option to go to the next carriage if this one was full.

And it was impossible to stand due to the fast speed of the train, you had to wait for the next train if you didn’t have a seat.

Link was puzzled.

Among the passengers in the carriage, only a few were new bloods from the Southern District and local apprentices from the North District.

A good number of them gave Link the same feeling as the five thugs who lurked around the streets of the West District.

Standing at the carriage entrance, Link scanned it from head to tail and actually found those five thugs whom he had dealt with twice before.

Signalling Jasmine not to get off the train hurriedly, Link walked over to the five thugs who were crouching down as if hoping they were invisible to everyone and pushed his gold-frame glasses on the ridge of his nose, a friendly smile on his lips, he said warmly, “So we meet again, this makes me very happy. How about you?”

“Big…bigbrother, good…good morning.”

The thug leader stutteringly responded to Link, as if his tongue had betrayed him.

He internaly wailed, cursing the middleman who introduced him to this job saying it was simple, just occupy some seats to prevent a male and a female first year new bloods from the Storm Sea from getting on the first train.

It is true that it’s a man and a woman, but the fucker didn’t tell him the male one is a polite yet ruthless killer!

“Why are you shaking? I’m not going to eat you.”

Leaning over, Link patted the thug leader’s shoulder and looked into the eyes of the other four trembling thugs, then said with a smile.

This smile was just right, revealing a neat row of bright white teeth.

And on those white teeth, a cold light was gleaming.

The fear that Link had instilled in the thugs last time emerged abruptly.

The five thugs started trembling even more, their shirts drenched with cold sweat.

Damn it, can you please stop being so menacing, big brother?

You really look like you want to devour us all at once.

“Big…big brother, I…I… I will give upmy seat for you.”

The thug leader gritted his teeth and managed to say this properly. Then without waiting for Link’s response, he rose and pushed aside his subordinates, driving them all out of the carriage.

Link waved at the five dismayed thugs who had just got off the carriage. He then indicated Jasmine to come over and sit down.

Looking at this scene, all the other seat occupants, whether they were new bloods, local apprentices, or West District thugs who came early in the morning to earn some magic stones, were puzzled and suspicious.

What exactly had this man done to those guys?

So much so that they were scared to such an extent?

They almost rolled out!
