Returning From The Magic World

Chapter 393 Meeting





The Armstrong family is one of the families considered to be the masterminds of many events.

In fact, many expected them to fall, but until now, the family has cast a shadow over the world.

Even the fall of one of their family members in a bloody event is something that never happens.

It was as if they were protected by a mysterious force. No matter how many crimes they committed, they remained strong and victorious.

Today, one of their members was hanged on the Eiffel Tower. The media outlets not affiliated with them immediately spread the news so much that the whole world knew in just a few moments.

The internet became full of speculation.

Many believed that there was a new force poised to take control of the world, a force that even the global elite seemed powerless against.

Unfortunately, there was no response at all from the Armstrong Family. Even their whereabouts are unknown, as if they have disappeared or perhaps are hiding in their homes.

It was quite disappointing for Arthur as he wanted to see more of their movements.

He also wondered if they could guess that he was the mastermind behind all of this.

Although Rose had contacted them, but she was also disguised so they couldn't detect.

However, lately it was only him who had been bothering them. First stealing their gold. They should have been suspicious of him.

***

It was only a short while after Arthur, Carla, and Bella returned to the former winery. No, now it's called the Academy of Magic.

Only moments after they returned, there were already people arriving. Some came on foot and some in cars.

They held their invitations in their hands so when they met the others, they were immediately surprised.

Among them, there were even Harry, Bastian, and Denis.

"Arthur, you're going home eventually, so how are you going to take care of this place then?" Bella couldn't help but ask about the future.

For that matter, Arthur wasn't so worried.

"Yeah, everything will be automatic eventually. And they don't always have to come to this place either," he replied without explaining too much.

Of course, there would be certain days where they had to come, like when he was distributing potions.

However, that could be taken care of by Jenny and Aurora later.

He was only here to distribute spells to them.

And even if later he wanted to teach them something, it could be done via video call.

After some time, there were more people coming.

They weren't just Europeans, of course. There were even Japanese and Chinese.

In all, there were more than 150 of them, leaving the villagers astonished by the sheer number of people.

They wondered what was going on.

The problem was that most of them were young. When there are young people gathered in such numbers it usually results in something noisy.

Some are now chatting, talking about what happened.

Many were not prepared for the number of people who came.

Those who initially thought themselves special soon felt insignificant.

Of course, Harry, Bastian, and Denis were more surprised. They didn't have an invitation. They came here because Arthur told them to.

Despite knowing that Arthur was a freak, something like this still exceeded their expectations.

The building he had bought suddenly turned into a magic academy.

What could be stranger than that?

Dong! Dong! Dong!

Suddenly the sound of bells echoed three times from inside the building.

It was so loud that the villagers could hear it, leading them to make new speculations as parties did not usually have such bell sounds.

Some suspected that there was some kind of heretical sect ritual, but calling it a heretical sect didn't seem to fit either. After all, Arthur, Carla, and Bella did not look like that. They gave the impression of modern urban youngsters with liberal lives.

Meanwhile, after hearing the sounds of the bells, the young people who received the invitation immediately entered the building.

The door was wide open, so they had no trouble entering.

However, once inside, they couldn't help but be astonished by the strange scene inside.

It was as if they were transported to a mysterious world of magic.I think you should take a look at

Various strange phenomena can be seen all around, and being there makes them no longer able to realize things outside.

BANG!

As they all entered the building, the door suddenly slammed shut. Since all the windows had been sealed from the start, there was no way out.

However, that didn't make people panic because they were already prepared for strange things when they decided to come. After all, they had been shown very strange things from the start.

If they thought there was something bad and possibly dangerous, they wouldn't have come. And those who came were also prepared if they found something bad.

They still come because they want what this place has to offer.

"Look over there!" Someone suddenly said, pointing at the stairs to the second floor.

A man came down the stairs, not covering his face at all.

When they saw him, Harry and the other two looked at each other with strange expressions.

The Arthur they saw this time really gave them a different sensation. He exuded an aura that was invisible but could be felt very clearly, even making them think he wasn't human.

Despite being familiar with him, they found it difficult to greet him.

"Who are you?" Suddenly someone was bold enough to ask Arthur as he arrived at the lowest step.

It was a thin man, wearing round glasses.

His very pale skin showed that he rarely went out.

Arthur wasn't even sure how he had gotten the invitation. Maybe he got it because he happened to be out of the house.

Since he asked, Arthur didn't need to say a few words before introducing himself.

"My name is Arthur, the owner of this place, and the one who will give you magic," he said.

Before they could react, he pointed his hand forward. He knew that they would hesitate when they saw he was the same age as them, so he needed to show them a few things.

From his hand, various elements then appeared, from fire, to wind, to lightning.

Each became enormous in a short period of time, and exuded their nature.

The fire made the room hot while the wind made the air comfortable.

Some people were so frightened that they fell to their knees when a fire passed in front of them.

In no time, they all realized that Arthur could easily slaughter them if he wanted to.

Even if they found it hard to apprentice to a man of their age, the magic power was still very appealing to their greed.

"Sit down and close your eyes, I will send a spell to your brain," Arthur said before anyone spoke again.

He then walked to a high chair beside the stairs and sat down.

One by one, the young people then sat on the floor.

However, they did not immediately close their eyes, they were still staring and watching him.

That was because he still seemed to have something to say.

"Although I'm giving you magic for free, I don't actually demand anything excessive from you other than that you can't say anything about this, something you should already know," he said.

"Then what will we do then?" The man with glasses asked again.

Despite giving the impression of a weak man, he seemed to have greater courage compared to the others.

Arthur didn't mind being constantly asked by him. He preferred the type who had this kind of courage even though he seemed like a coward.

"Maybe I'll ask for your help to do some things. However, the basis of this is for you and the world. You may not know, but this world is not entirely a safe place. When danger comes, even if I can survive or overcome it, it is destined that there will be many who suffer. I spread this magic with the aim of minimizing the casualties with more magus presence. When you have mastered magic later, one of the tasks I gave you is to spread magic to more people."

Hearing Arthur's words, the people narrowed their eyes, feeling like they were hearing the unimaginable.

The danger he was referring to was clearly the danger associated with the power of magic, not nuclear weapons and such.

"Is the danger from the devil?" asked a young girl with a freckled face.

From her appearance, she seemed like a religious girl.

Arthur wanted to laugh at her question. However, after thinking about it, the mysterious creature did fit the title of Devil.

He controlled evil people to create a lot of evil, so he fit the title the best.

"Maybe!" Arthur finally answered like that even though he also showed a faint smile indicating that there were things he should not say.

"Right, close your eyes now, this kind of talk is less useful before you become a Magus," he added as he waved his hand.

An invisible energy spread from his hand, justifying the sitting position with the person sitting carelessly.
