When Manla heard what Levi said, he was extremely touched. With tears and snot, he said, âLevi, youâre right. My expectations for my daughter were too high. I wanted her to become the first official wizard in our family. Now that I think about it, even if she didnât become a wizard, living a peaceful life as a
Mortal wouldnât be bad.â
Manla finally let it go and patted his daughterâs shoulder.
He introduced Levi to her, âDora, this is the legendary knight Iâve been telling you about. Uncle Levi is also my friend.â
Dora must have been traumatized. Her face was still in pain as she stood there like a puppet.
Manla sighed.
"Dora, you have a very nice name,â Levi said. âIâm relieved that youâve returned safely. I am leaving now. I hope you can overcome this trauma soon and welcome a new life.â
Levi turned around and left, waving goodbye.
Manla was in tears, and he was overwhelmed by emotions.
He could finally let it all out.
After Manla calmed down, he suddenly realized a small bag was on the table.
He opened the bag with a trembling hand. There was a total of 100 Aether Stones inside.
After returning to the ninth floor of the Gray Tower, Leviâs expression turned solemn.
He learned some information from Manlaâs story. Things seemed to have progressed as he expected.
He mumbled, âThe Pan-Plane Wizard Council is investigating Kaneâs death.â The Bureau for Unnatural Wizard Deaths was an organization responsible for investigating the unnatural deaths of wizards.
Levi did not know if the bureau could find out that he had killed Kane.
It had been three months since Kaneâs death.
There were still nine months left before the case would be dropped. If someone from the bureau managed to piece the clues together during these nine months, he would be in trouble.
He wondered, âI have money now anyway. Why donât I just return to the human world for a year?â
As far as Levi knew, a one-way ticket to the human world cost 2000 Aether Stones.
A round trip would cost 4000 Aether Stones.
Although it was expensive, Levi could afford it now.
"Letâs wait a little longer. The sub-dimensional portal to the human world is in the Star Tower, Itâs too far away from here. I might encounter other dangers along the way.â
Levi dismissed the idea.
So far, his Spider Sensing had not been triggered even the slightest.
This was also why Levi was relatively at ease.
If the people from the bureau found out about the murder, they would definitely have malicious intentions towards Levi.
Since his Spider Sensing didnât alert him of any danger, it meant that he should be fine.
If his Spider Sensing issued any warning, Levi would immediately escape. After all, he had the Dragon King Whale Leviathan, which allowed him excellent mobility.
"Iâll be fine after these nine months. It shouldnât be impossible to connect the murder to me,â Levi comforted himself.
Due to this sense of urgency, Levi cultivated even harder.
Soon, it was the Month of Wheatfield.
One day, a sea beast suddenly emerged from the sea outside the Gray Tower. The sea beast looked like a seahorse. Its strength was only at the level of a high-level apprentice wizard.
On the back of the sea beast, two official wizards, a man and a woman, were resting with their eyes closed. They were both wearing the Star Towerâs enforcer robes.
When they reached the shore, the male enforcer chanted a spell, and a golden envelope flew out of his hand toward the Gray Tower.
Written on the envelope was âI, Kallius from the Star Tower, hereby request access to the Gray Tower for official business.â
On the seventh floor of the White Tower, Tower Master Herman frowned as he looked at the golden envelope. He was familiar with such envelopes.
The Tower Master called Ms. Marlene over and said, âEnforcers from the Star Tower? What are they doing here? Marlene, Iâm busy and canât meet with them. Go and welcome them.â
"Alright, Tower Master.â Marlene came to the shore and welcomed the enforcers.
"May I know who you are looking for?â she asked.
The enforcer, who called himself Kallius, said, âManla and Dora are apprentice wizards here, are they not? We have something to ask them. We will leave after we are done.â
Marlene knew who Manla was. He was once her apprentice, after all.
"Alright then.â
According to the law, she could not intervene in the Star Towerâs investigation. They were to be allowed free rein.
"Thank you, weâll be quick. We wonât stay here for long, â the female enforcer said politely.
"Itâs okay. Weâll cooperate with your investigation,â replied Marlene as she smiled confidently.
The official wizards in Gray Tower had always been well-behaved, and the apprentice wizards under their command were unlike other organizations who were always thinking about causing trouble. They were all a group of law-abiding, good citizens.
Levi was especially obedient.
On the ninth floor of the Gray Tower, Levi was still cultivating, completely unaware of what was happening outside.
So far, his Spider Sensing did not pick up any abnormalities.
Meanwhile, in the materials store in White Sail Alley, Manla and Dora were facing the two enforcers.
The male enforcer waved his wand, and a soundproof barrier was formed.
Manla and Dora looked confused. They didnât know what these enforcers were up to. Could their visit be related to Kaneâs death?
Kallius said with a smile, âHello, Mr. Manla. Iâm Kallius, a Star Tower enforcer. This is my colleague, Clarice. The two of us have come because we have some questions to ask you. You donât have to be too flustered. You just need to answer truthfully. Donât lie to us. Believe me, we can tell if youâre lying..â
