Passerby Villain In A Wizard World

Ron also looked at Ian's retreating figure in confusion. He already noticed Aurora following him, intending to leave this continent with Ian.

But the rejection from Ignisia Tower was no joke, and he didn't lie that anyone who wasn't at the First Class Wizard Apprentice level would be teleported directly to Everbright City.

"Well, it is none of my business then."

Ron caressed his wand in his hand while looking at Ian's figure imperceptibly. Although he was someone who could bend and stretch, he wasn't someone who didn't hold a grudge.

It was fine to be in a pact of subordination when there was nothing he could do, but if he had the chance...

In fact, he was still curious why Ian was clearly ignoring his existence. In any case, he was a wizard who had been subdued by him. If nothing else, Ian could gauge the wizard world through him, right?

'Heh, let's see how you will fare when you are away in an unknown place. Kid, you are still naive, thinking there is no way to circumvent the pact. You don't know the methods of wizards enough.'

The old man finally smiled meanly while signaling the remaining people to rush over. The revenge would come later; right now, he would focus on the chance he got after sacrificing so much of his time.

'Let's see if the news is correct.'

Ron thought in anticipation, clearly with hope. Although he looked better and stronger than Ethos, he was still in his twilight years. His lifespan was running out, and his only hope was to reach the Second Ring before his time came.

Fortunately, while he was in the Calvora continent, he heard about the news of someone stealing Ascension material for the Second Ring Wizard and entering the Ignisia Tower.

'There is no news of him returning yet for so long, so he must be dead.'

Ron thought in excitement, as that person was reportedly gravely injured and only survived because of entering the Ignisia Tower decades ago.

Due to the special nature of this place, that organization finally stopped the pursuit and let him go.

So, there was a high chance he could get the Ascension Material on this trip, as he had something that could track his whereabouts.

'I paid too much for this blood. He better not use those treasures, otherwise...'

Ron's eyes went cold with murderous intent as he took out a blood-red compass from his neck, worn as a necklace.

This compass was called the Blood Compass, as it could locate a person's location in a certain radius if you had the blood of that person, and it was quite accurate in its prediction.

This item was too important to Ron; that's why he wore it as a necklace on his neck and dodged Ian's sight when he was in the mansion.

If his plan came true this time, and he became a Second Ring Wizard, then there was nothing that could hold him off anymore. He didn't need to be afraid of Ian's methods, as a First Ring and a Second Ring Wizard weren't the same concept.

'It is time to leave. Let him live for a while.'

Ron thought and activated the compass, not realizing what he was hoping for as salvation was doomed from the beginning. And the one he wanted to get rid of was in possession of the same item he unknowingly wanted so much.

And even if Ian wasn't, he wouldn't be able to gain it, as Ron had no idea his friend Ethos was the same person who had the items he needed the most.

Truly, it was so sad that some people's destiny was already decided from the beginning. It wasn't without reason Ian was trying his best to jump out of this net and be free.

...

"Umm... Ian... I can follow you from the side, you know. There is... really no need to hug me."

Aurora said in a small voice as Ian grabbed her body again by the waist, just like on the Teleportation platform, although it wasn't as intimate as with Lyra on this side.

However, despite feeling uncomfortable, the warm embrace she had never felt before made her experience different emotions for the first time. Your journey continues on My Virtual Library Empire

Maybe it was the feeling of being hugged or simply being in safe arms, believing that no matter what happened, they would protect her.

For her, who was tormented by the entanglement of the whispers all the time, it was truly something she might have longed for unintentionally.

That's why, she wasn't resisting much, and only asked Ian to complain.

"Girl, you are too weak. What if you are stranded? It will just waste my time searching for you."

Ian said with a straight face while grabbing her soft waist a little more tightly in his arm, enjoying her softness. Unlike the voluptuous figure of Lyra, Aurora had a slender figure like a snake, truly comfortable to hold her by the waist while smelling her unique fragrance.

"Yeah, look, he is holding me too. Why are you complaining when he is helping you?"

Lyra said with soft laughter, directly placing her whole body on Ian's chest, not knowing whether she was stating the facts or testing Aurora.

"Ouch!"

"Girl, you seem to enjoy this more than I do."

Ian looked at her mischievous smile and playfully tweaked her waist, causing a yelp of surprise from Lyra.

"What... what happened?"

Hearing Lyra's shout, Aurora became alert while looking at the long corridor that had no visible end. They had been walking along for a while now with no new sight, so Aurora thought Lyra might have discovered something.

"Um... nothing. I just tripped on something."

"Yeah! See... you also need to be careful. Come a little closer."

Ian didn't let go of this chance and pulled Aurora closer, who was uncomfortably trying to keep her distance from him before.

"You scumbag, you already have me and my sister, and you are still hitting on her. Aren't you afraid of me?"
