Chapter 199: Chance Encounter

Aya shook her head internally, shaking her thoughts from those things.

No matter what, it was not the time to care about these things and so on.

She looked at Silas in front of her and Silas was also looking in Aya’s direction.

To be honest, Silas had never thought that he would see anyone in this deep forest. He had traveled since yesterday and only reached it now because he was trying to be covert. While many magic warriors were only rank 4 and some at rank 5, there were also some people who were actually at rank 6.

Having seen them when he was brought by Elder Vorkham, Silas understood that he had to be careful when he was doing things.

Because these magic warriors were equally powerful.

So what if he was praised as a genius?

A genius who died young is nothing.

Only when a genius had fully grown up would they be paid attention to by others. Otherwise, they didn’t have that much value.

Anything could happen on their path to become stronger.

Silas didn’t want to stay in Wansu City any longer, so he thought of a way to get out of the city. After handing the lists and making sure that the Fourth Head of the Wansu City was no longer suspicious of him, Silas chose to make that puppet.

To be exact, he had been making it for a long time little by little but didn’t really think of using it for anything big.

But after seeing the face of the Fourth Head of the Wansu City change quickly and try to appease him and then the Black Family Patriarch’s shamelessness, Silas really felt tired. These two people kept on pushing the blame far away, completely forgetting how they used to be one to trust Rafi so much and felt that he was nothing more than a businessman.

Silas didn’t want to face them.

Anyway, letting the puppet do his role, as long as it was not vigorous fighting, it was still feasible.

So, Silas departed to the forest.

He also wanted to go to the Central Magic City directly, but the talk with Aya before made him realize how poor he is.

If he went there without bringing anything...

It was estimated that Silas wouldn’t be able to stay even for a day before he was kicked out.

The reputation of the Central Magic City being the most expensive place in the entire magic world was not for nothing.

Silas went to the deep forest and thought about hunting the rank 5 and rank 6 magic beasts. Their magic cores could be collected and the meat could be eaten. In this way, he would be able to improve himself rapidly while he was staying here.

After a few months or so, Silas should have gathered enough magic cores for his expenditure in the Central Magic City.

That was his plan.

Before his departure, Silas had already done his investigation and knew that there were not many people who dared to go to the deep forest.

The threat of the magic beasts were the main reasons.

The previous heads of the cities had made an agreement with these magic beasts, so they would only stay in the periphery and didn’t go deep into the forest. Anyway, there were still magic beasts at rank 5 and 6 around the periphery areas.

It would be enough for him.

But Silas never expected that there would be a magic warrior here and from the magic fluctuation around the other party, Silas could sense that this magic warrior is really powerful. The illusion magic made him unable to see the figure clearly as if it was covered by some mists, but he had the feeling that this person should be the newly advanced rank 7 magic warrior from before.

Because he couldn’t see through the other party at all.

If it was an ordinary rank 6 magic warrior, Silas would still be able to see the other party more or less, but he found no clues from this magic warrior.

Moreover, the bones on the grounds still emitted faint mana fluctuation that belonged to rank 6 magic beasts. Even as a rank 6 magic warrior, Silas couldn’t deal with so many magic beasts at the same time without exhausting himself. Yet, this person was able to deal with these magic beasts easily.

She or he should be a rank 7 magic warrior.

So the two of them were silent.

After a moment, Silas bowed down slightly. "I’m Silas Black. My apologies for disturbing you, Senior."

Senior?

Aya’s lips twitched.

She looked at Silas and felt that her teacher might feel autistic if he knew that the person he bowed to was actually his own student. At the same time, Aya also knew that she couldn’t possibly tell Silas about this matter so openly.

There was no need for her to expose her strength to other people.

Even if this person was her own teacher, she still couldn’t.

But if Aya was not wrong... Silas’s cooking skill was much better than her, right?

...

Uh wait, what is she thinking about?

Aya quickly shook her head.

If she kept Silas around her, there would be possibility for her being found out by Silas. After all, her teacher was quite perceptive and Aya had been practicing under Silas’s supervision for quite some time.

Her mana signature was quite different because she used different elements and covered it up. But if she were to use wind and water elements, it was estimated that Silas would be able to recognize her instantly.

For the newly advanced rank 7, they could disguise themselves to a certain degree through not using their main element and using their other elements. But those who knew them before they advanced to rank 7 would still recognize their mana signature.

But people who had only come into contact with them would not recognize them.

And Aya knew how convenient her wind element was...
