Chapter 147

****

At the Rose Institute, Currently, Eva was training her magical skills after her last encounter where she almost lost her life . These days she was very stressed because of her cousin who just arrived from the Imperial Capital to meet her grandma Melanie .

His name was Dwight Simmons, son of her uncle . Dwight was with his subordinate currently, He was one of the best students of the Imperial University . While at the same time he was an honorary teacher at the institute because of his excellent grades, he came here because of a mission recently .

Dwight was with his subordinate in one of the pubs at North-frontier city, "This time the mission would be very difficult to achieve, plus that old hag won’t even let me go near her library . And it would be very difficult to rob those new medicines and I don’t want to face the same fate as Granduncle . This mission is quite a headache . "

The subordinate reminded, "But master this time the mission is given by Defense Minister Plato personally, even your father is in support of this . Master Plato expects to get those medicines since they want to reduce the influence of the Radiant Church as much as possible . Even many of the Grandmasters were quite surprised by the release of those new medicines by Count John to counter the Radiant Church . It was quite unexpected . Many of them believe that Grandpotioneer Melanie was one of the architects of this plan to counter the Radiant Church . Additionally, you are the best bet that Minister Plato thinks can be useful in bringing those new medicines . Because of that new organization and The Demon Vlad . We have lost a lot of men trying to procure those new drugs . "

Dwight rebuked, "True, that upstart is only riding on the success of our bloodline . If it were not for that Old Hag who protected him from behind the scenes do you think the court would have taken such a late decision against him? This time because of those new weapons and Count John’s stubborn attitude of protecting a slave, a lot of things have changed . Can’t he bow his head just once? What is with this ego? Anyway, I was able to talk normally to Grandma Melanie but as usual, she won’t let anyone go near her books apart from Eva and that bloody Upstart disciple . Those books are rusting in the hands of that upstart . "

The subordinate reminded after hearing Dwight’s roar, "Be careful Milord, there are a lot of ears in this town from what I heard from Minister Plato, According to his investigations, around 50 percent of the spies are exposed to that count . The anti-spying is particularly being carried out by that new unit named Ghosts . We have lost many of the important assets who were close to discovering important things . We would not want to be discovered for our plans . These guys document a lot of things that help them in discovering spies . Because of this Minister Plato is recently funding the local thugs just to get more information on Count John . "

Dwight sighed after he heard him and spoke with a calm head, "I guess it is to be expected after that previous assassination on Eva and now the upcoming war . Maybe I will try to persuade them to migrate to the Imperial city since this city will be in chaos . I hope Eva doesn’t bear a lot of grudges . "

The Subordinate shook his head and spoke, "However, I don’t think Grandpotioneer, Melanie will come or even join politics because of the previous incident where your uncle and aunt died . Minister Plato hopes to use her influence on Count John to bring in all the new technologies bought forward by Count John to improve the economic condition of the Kingdom . He perceives him to be quite a dangerous individual . He places him even higher than Prince Lukav . He isn’t worried about Prince Lukav but more about that Lord and his recent stubbornness . So our only bet this time will be to take those medicines from Grandma Melanie’s pharmacy or persuade Grandpotioneer Melanie . However, recently there has been a lot of Ghosts patrolling in civilian clothes near the pharmacy . Why don’t you visit the Rose Institute to interact with Miss Melanie? That Institute looks quite grand . I heard there has been a lot of dissenters from the Imperial University who joined them . We can get their views as well . "

Dwight nodded and irritatingly spoke, "Well, I will anyway try to persuade Grandma and Eva, As for that institute, it is still hollow from inside without any knowledge, The Imperial University has a history behind it . While this place is just grand on the outer side with nothing to show apart from money and funding done by that Upstart . As for visiting that institute, I don’t want to anger the dean . He is already pissed because of the printing press that is launching those books at half the prices . "

The subordinate nodded as heard about the printing press, "True, I recently bought many books which were written by professors of Rose Institute as they were cheap and gave a new perspective . As I recalled they are being published by the Black and White press . The same company which publishes those newspapers in this town . Those newspapers are useful, to be honest . Many new businesses are copying Hope and using that newspaper to advertise their business on it . "

Dwight rebuked as he heard him, "Hmph, I don’t even like the face of that newspaper . It is completely biased with those dissenter writers spouting bullshit and ruining the image of some professors of the Imperial University . "

Not knowing the mood, the subordinate still continued after hearing Dwight, "But from what I know, Professor Glenn was the best professor be he was never promoted because of the petty politics in the university, isn’t that correct lord?"

Dwight angrily roared after hearing this, "Just 1 incident doesn’t mean, all others are right as well . "

Dwight knew about it but he still didn’t wish to hear about it as he never faced the problems which were faced by others . Because of his bloodline and the power behind it, he never faced such problems . "

Hearing his own roar, Dwight calmed down and apologized, "I am sorry for roaring again, I guess I lost my calmness . Anyway, I will be leaving and try to meet Grandma Melanie again tomorrow . "

Josephine approached Eva in the institute and asked, "Eva, I heard your cousin from Imperial University just arrived here . I guess he is worried because of the upcoming war and hence came to persuade you and grandma . Right?"

Eva rebuked and spoke after hearing her, "Of course his intentions are clear, Grandma spoke that he most probably is targetting the new medicines that were recently introduced by John . However, it would be ironic if he finds out that the medicines were particularly produced by John himself . That boy Dwight is a kid when it comes to judging people . Grandma Melanie already knew that the Ministers in the Imperial city would be very impatient after finding out the medicines and would try to use us to get to John . Particularly Defense Minister, Plato . Grandma said he was quite an ambitious and cautious individual . "

Josephine nodded, "Hmm . . . Ohh so they are targetting the new medicines . I guess because of all the new things coming out every day, I didn’t saw its importance . Recently, you are training more than what you usually did, you are even actively asking pointers from John when it comes to magic . "

Josephine thought as she asked the question, ’Why do I feel stressed whenever Eva and John are near? The last incident almost made them a couple . If he were not dense it would have been bad . "

Eva nodded and spoke, "Yes, after the previous scare, I don’t want to face that situation again . though John is only a basic magician . He has very good at the control and hold over his magic . This has also helped me improve my fusion magic, So I guess this is one of the reasons . I heard Sally was quite worried nowadays . Where is she?"

Josephine sighed and spoke, "Well, it’s because of all the events that have taken place recently . Right now, she is teaching the new students magic at Rose Institute nowadays . "

Eva thought and spoke, "Sigh, I guess it is because of Prince Lukavv and Duke Fjord . What about those brats you usually train with? Where are they?"

Josephine smiled as she heard about those brats, "They are training with Jake nowadays, Of them the new boy Lucious is quite a hard working boy, I guess he will join the assassins very early with the other brats even though he joined quite late . I guess they are currently under his personal training .

They will come out as assassins or warriors, according to their needs . I hope they don’t get caught up in the war . They will most likely be going to that new Island that was discovered recently by Admiral Blake . I think it is called Aurora Island . "

Eva thought as she heard about Aurora Island from Taylor, "Aurora Island, I guess I would want to visit it once . "

Josephine sighed and spoke, "We can only visit it after the construction of that Island is done completely . That’s what John told me . "
