Ms. Marlene, a newly promoted Second-Circle Wizard, had become the acting Tower Master of the Gray Tower.

During the Month of Flowing Fire, Levi ended his cultivation when he heard that Manla had returned. He went to visit Manla, whom he hadn’t seen for a long time, to discuss their future cooperation.

He met Manla at the materials store in White Sail Alley. Beside Manla was a young girl who looked to be in her twenties. She was lovely, and her eyes resembled Manla’s. She did not look well and was doing some chores with a dull gaze.

“Manla, long time no see,” greeted Levi as he approached them.

Manla looked sad when he saw Levi but still forced himself to smile. “Sir Levi, long time no see. I’m really sorry for leaving without having said goodbye.”

Levi asked, “It’s fine. It’s good that you’re back. What happened? Why didn’t you seek my aid? With our relationship, I would have helped you to the best of my abilities.”

“I don’t like to trouble others,” said Manla as he shook his head and smiled bitterly. “Especially since this matter involves an official wizard, who is my daughter’s mentor.”

“Oh? What happened to your daughter’s mentor?” Levi wondered if his daughter’s incident had something to do with Kane, whom he had killed.

Manla said, “Sigh, I truly regret what I have done. Kane the Fireplay Master, the Island Master of Black Fire Island, is scum! I thought he was merely greedy for money and advocated the Principle of Equal Exchange. I believed that he would teach my daughter responsibly if I gave him enough money. However, that scumbag didn’t keep his end of the deal after receiving the money. Instead, he gave my daughter to his playboy son as a concubine without my daughter’s consent. I’m so livid! My daughter disagreed, so he used spells to control her and locked her in the dungeon of Black Fire Island. His son did unspeakable things to my daughter!

“If it wasn’t for one of his apprentices who accidentally discovered all of this and asked a good friend of mine to tell me about it, my daughter might have been dead right now.”

Manla looked at his daughter with a heavy heart.

Levi was also furious. He said, “What a scumbag! It’s a good thing that you saved your daughter. By the way, how did you save her? Kane is an official wizard.”

Manla took a deep breath and said, “With my strength alone, I naturally wouldn’t dare go to Black Fire Island without a plan. I found the friend who introduced Kane to me. When that friend heard about Kane’s behavior, he was also outraged. He asked me to seek the Apprentice Wizard Protection Association and let them investigate the situation on Black Fire Island first. After that, I should seek the Wizard Tribunal to judge Kane’s behavior. I did just that.”

He continued, “I spent money establishing connections and finally persuaded the association to take action. However, after a long time, they didn’t do anything. I had no choice but to find a way myself. I wanted to seek a wizard from the tower to help me. However, Marko and Mr. Tim had gone to the Star Tower to further their studies, and the Tower Master was busy with his research. Granny Marlene was the acting Tower Master in his place.

“Left with no choice, I went to Black Fire Island alone to rescue my daughter.”

Manla’s face was bitter as he recounted the incident. “Just as I expected, Kane locked me up as well. Fortunately, I got to see my daughter. She was still alive. I thought that even though I couldn’t save my daughter from the devil’s den, at least I would get to die with her.

“However, to my surprise, investigators from the Bureau for the Unnatural Wizard Deaths of Star Tower came soon after. I learned from an investigator that this scumbag Kane had mysteriously disappeared for some time. He had been confirmed dead, but no corpse had been found. After going through the procedure, the investigators left. Before they left, they confiscated Kane’s property on Black Fire Island. After investigating the truth of our imprisonment, they released us.

“We and the other apprentices of Kane went our separate ways. Black Fire Island is now surrounded by law enforcers from the Star Tower. No one is allowed to enter. They said that after the investigation, Black Fire Island will be auctioned off by Star Tower.

“Sigh, this is the Realm of the Unbelievers, and I am a wizard. By right, I shouldn’t believe in the gods. However, after I learned of Kane’s death, I

suddenly felt that Kane’s sins must have angered the gods, which was why this miracle happened.

“I felt like I was dreaming. I was prepared to die but didn’t expect to return safely.”

Manla finished recounting the incident in one go, and his expression gradually turned calm.

Levi listened quietly and comforted him, “When I was in the human world, I heard a saying that a wicked person would be harassed by another of like ilk.

Kane must have offended a lot of people. It might be that someone even more despicable than Kane took revenge for you.”

Levi analyzed, “Since you and your daughter have returned safely, you should stay in the Gray Tower and recuperate. Kane was just a mentor from the

Burning Faction. In the future, I’ll help your daughter find another mentor. Besides, your daughter has triple affinity with earth, fire, and wind. There’s no need to limit herself to the Burning Faction. The Earth Faction is good at defense, while the Storm Faction is good at speed. These are both good attributes for a girl. If she runs fast enough, danger will never catch up to her..”
