Tale of a Hedonistic wizard

Chapter 41: Mysterious guests in the academy



Inwardly, Jaegar felt a mix of emotions – embarrassment, annoyance, and a touch of frustration.

Jeanine composed herself as best she could, her tone regaining some of its usual composure.

"Lady Angelina, this is not what you think," she explained, her voice tinged with a mix of irritation and awkwardness.

Angelina smirked, seemingly enjoying the situation. "Oh, really?" she replied, raising an eyebrow playfully. "Well, it certainly looked like something to me."

Jaegar felt a surge of frustration, but he remained silent, observing the exchange between the two women.

Jeanine took a deep breath, trying to steer the conversation away from the awkwardness. "What brings you here, Angelina? Is there something you need?"

Angelina's playful demeanor softened slightly, and she gestured toward the portal.

"I have come looking for the boy, and here I have ended up."

A few moments before,

In the tranquil farmyard, Ashfield emerged from a portal, intending to have a word with Angelina.

However, his arrival did not go unnoticed. Out of nowhere, Angelina materialized and launched a powerful blast of intense fire directly at him. Reacting swiftly, Ashfield chanted an incantation, conjuring a protective barrier just in time. The fiery assault struck the barrier, pushing him several steps back.

"Angelina, this is not the time for such displays," Ashfield urged firmly, trying to reason with her. "The boy is in danger."

Hearing the concern in Ashfield's voice, Angelina ceased her attack, allowing the flames to dissipate.

Her expression shifted from aggression to genuine worry. "What happened to my precious boy?" she inquired, her voice tinged with a mixture of fear and protectiveness.

"He was attacked a few days ago," Ashfield explained, his gaze serious. "And I fear that all the attention he's receiving is putting him in further danger. It may not be good for him."

Angelina's concern for Jaegar was evident as she quickly absorbed the information. Without wasting a moment, she vanished from the farmyard and reappeared before Jaegar, utilizing a spell she had placed on him to locate him whenever she needed.

At present,

She approached Jaegar, and she couldn't help but feel a surge of motherly affection for him. "Jaegar," she called out gently, her voice warm and comforting. "Are you alright?"

He replied, "Yes."

"It's time for your training. I have come here now to take you." Angelina said.

Jaegar looked at Jeanine and wondered what he should do. Jeanine then said, "You have to go."

Angeling had already said she would come for him. Jaegar, sighing, went along with her. He knew he needed power, if something like that happened again, he wouldn't be lucky again. He wanted to know all about his powers and be well equipped with them.

He trusted Angelina's guidance and believed that training with her would be the best way to unlock his potential. With a determined nod, Jaegar made up his mind and followed Angelina, ready to unearth his powers.

Entering the portal, Angelina and Jaegar disappeared from the place.

Jeanine slammed her face with her palm and shook her head. "Did she have to come only now?"

The next morning, the academy had unexpected guests.

Men dressed in black coats flew to the academy on beasts with the bodies of firm and rugged fur and their nose and mouth stretched a little to the front, but black fur and backward-bent horns. They had wings on them which were strong enough to lift their bodies and the one sitting on them.

About twenty of them landed right in front of the academy, all bearing a logo on their right side of the chest - the emblem of the Black Hound Legion.

As the students recognized the symbol, they whispered, "Black Hound Legion... What are they doing here?" Another creature came, different from the others. It was bigger, with thick dark horns and fiercely glowing red eyes - a menacing creature called a laigur.

Riding on the back of this black-horned laigur was a man who wore intricate clothes, a long coat, and had neatly set hair and a trimmed beard. He was strikingly handsome and exuded an air of maturity. On closer inspection, one could see a resemblance between him and Jaegar, but with more mature features.

The man walked into the academy, drawing a lot of attention.

Veronica and Lorcan appeared from nowhere and stood in front of him.

Lorcan respectfully addressed him, "Uncle, what are you doing here?"

The man was Angus Gadfyre, the second prince of the empire and the commander of the Black Hound Legion, the most feared group in the empire.

He smiled at them and replied, "We are just passing by, just dropping in to say hi."

Lorcan and Veronica watched him walked past them, not uttering any word.

Angus continued on his way and headed to the headmaster's room.

Isadora and Jeanine had already reached the headmaster to inform him about Angus' arrival. Jeanine seemed flushed, and upon seeing her, Ashfield said, "I know."

She asked, "Why did he come here?"

Then she realized something and said, "Is it for the boy?" She recalled that Jaegar was taken out by Angelina during the night. Jeanine wondered if that was the reason for Angus' visit.

Angus entered the headmaster's room with slow steps, and upon seeing him, they all turned their attention to the formidable prince.

Angus was feared by most people who knew him truly, as he was a fierce dark wizard, known for brutally defeating his enemies and never losing a battle.

"Hello, dear Isadora and Professor Ashfield."

Ashfield courteously welcomed him, "Welcome, Prince Angus. To what do I owe the pleasure of your visit?"

Angus looked at him, squinting his eyes, and a sly smile appeared on his face. "Yesterday, I happened to witness something amusing," he remarked, raising his hand.

A small spark of lightning ignited on his finger for a second before disappearing. He then inquired, "Where is my boy?"
