My Favorite Game Followed Me!
Chapter 358

Anton was about to enter his room when his father entered the suite followed by everyone including a mage that he recognized as one who always accompanied the Supreme Adinor.

When the mage saw Anton, he headed directly to him and introduced himself.

“Archmage Sunder, I’m High Wizard Levonur, secretary to the Supreme Adinor. I’m here to tell you the results of the interrogation.”

Anton invited the High Wizard to sit in one of the chairs at the dining table but the mage noticed that everyone remained there and that Anton let them. He was amused to see the High Wizard hesitated for a little and expected that the mage assistant would say that the information that he had was for his ears only.

He looked around and saw that Antonia, Lucia, Walter, and Phillip also looked at the High Wizard in amusement. The High Wizard looked around as well and was surprised to see the four nobles so instead of further hesitation he delivered the information that the High Wizard was supposed to give Anton.

“Please remember not to divulge the information yet since it might cause panic to the general populace of the ship and this is by the command of the Supreme Adinor,” The High Wizard said after introducing himself.

After Anton, his family, and friends assured the High Wizard that they would not spread the information yet, the Supreme Adinor’s assistant gave most of the information they had learned from the three men Anton had captured.

The attackers were part of the most powerful and evil assassin organization based on Rendindura and one of the counselors of the Council of Monarch Liches and Grand Necromancers of the Undead Coalition took over the management of the organization by killing all of the elders and the leaders of their group and took control of them. Their specific group’s mission was to try and take over the Amelia and control the ship to return to Rendindura.

The assassins didn’t know that the ship had an Invincible on board so they knew that their mission was futile but they would still try their best to kill as many of the mages in the group before they were wiped out and they were confident that before they were rooted out, majority of the mages would die on their hands but they received a message from the Undead Coalition.

There was supposed to be a powerful artifact on board that was in one of the hands of family members of the noble that was killed and that artifact was powerful enough to even hurt an invincible but that noble didn’t know its power. The three assassins didn’t know what kind of artifact it was and the only one who knew was their leader who was still hidden amongst the ship’s passengers.

They didn’t find the artifact on the man that was supposed to be holding the artifact and none of the other family members had it. Based on the information that the assassins acquired, it might have been passed on to one of the regular passengers of the ship and that was the second family that was killed.

One of the biggest problems that they had was the assassins, either through the powerful ship’s mages' spells or tortures confessed that there were forty of them on board. Right now the Supreme Wizards were trying to best to concoct a spell that would identify the assassins through any markings or something else but unfortunately, they were unsuccessful for now. The High Wizard admitted that it would only be a matter of time since the Supreme Wizards were truly very powerful and they hadn’t even involved the Invincible yet.

Selena asked the question that everyone was thinking which was “Why not?”

The High Wizard didn’t recognize Selena but the fact that an archmage and several powerful nobles were there including the niece of the owner of the ship, he answered the question.

“An invincible would not be involved in matters that don’t constitute the total destruction of the Amelia. Believe in our Supreme Wizards since they do have the power to solve this issue.”

When Norma and Belue commented softly that it would probably cause more innocent lives, the High Wizard just shrugged and Anton thought that the mage would have probably said, “They’re just regular folks,” if Antonia and the others were not there. That was based on the mage’s facial expression but he couldn’t condemn the man for what he was thinking or believing in especially if he hadn’t voiced it out.

After the High Wizard assistant to the Supreme Adinor left, Anna made a comment.

“I told you, it’s too early to celebrate!”

“It doesn’t matter. I also told you that even if it wasn’t resolved yet, we, or rather the ship’s mages will resolve it then we can celebrate again. I’m sure that this time the remaining assassins would think twice about attacking our family since I did capture three of them. Just remember that if you want to leave the suite, you will have to take several wolves with you. That meant that you can’t all leave at the same time but even if you do, you will still need to group together,” Anton replied to his sister.

“Are you still going to continue with your “Bait the Assassin” plan?” Frederick asked and it was Lucas who answered.

“That wouldn’t work anymore. Two of the assassins escaped and now they knew how powerful Anton is. Most likely, even their leader is not Anton’s equal in terms of power. I’m even guessing that even if all the Assassins grouped and attacked Anton, they wouldn’t win. The fact that Anton said that their projectile which was backed by their skills didn’t even penetrate his defenses and the fact that Anton can fly and even magically move from one place to another instantaneously would mean that Anton could defeat them without any issues. The only thing they could do now was to continue hiding to try and find the artifact that was supposed to be powerful enough to hurt an Invincible which I truly doubt.”

“What does that mean to us?” Lunelle asked his father.

“That meant exactly what Anton had said. We can return to what we have been doing but we still need to take very good care and make sure that we are in a group together guarded by several wolves and one of the huge monsters like the Clay Golem or the Dire Bear.”

Selena who was hugging Anders, Norma, Belue, and Anton’s four rich friends from New Drennor was looking at Anton in a new light. They knew when they heard the stories of Anton’s battle with monsters in Rendindura that the young archmage was powerful but Lucas listing his capabilities against the assassins brought forth the fact that the young archmage was truly one of the most powerful mages in the ship.

Anton jokingly acted humbly which made everyone laugh. That also brought complaints from Lucia. She said that the main reason why they almost couldn’t accept that Anton was truly powerful was because of how he behaved.

“I prefer him that way. He doesn’t have the vomit-inducing arrogance of the young and powerful mages from New Drennor,” Antonia said.

“You mundanes! How dare you behave in front of me so casually!” Anton said arrogantly with his nose up in the air, pretending to be some arrogant noble and that behavior only earned a smack on the head from his father which made everyone laugh again when Anton complained saying that he’d turn dumb if Anders kept smacking his head.
