Another World: The Failed Magician

Lu Xuan and his group soon arrived at a manor in the suburbs.

As the group stepped into the manor, a leaf suddenly fell from an old tree in front of the manor.

Lu Xuan picked up the leaf and put it in the mailbox in front of the manor gate.

The gates of the manor opened at that moment.

Lu Xuan and the other two naturally walked in.

Lu Xuan spotted Mo Yun at a glance.

She sat in the courtyard, surrounded by several girls of similar age.

The group chatted and laughed, but the girls on the far side seemed out of place, sitting blankly around them.

Upon noticing Lu Xuan and his group, everyone in the courtyard turned to look at them.

Upon seeing Lu Xuan, the girls' eyes clearly revealed their dissatisfaction and hostility.

Lu Xuan had no choice but to ignore it.

Mo Yun got up and walked over.

She spotted the girl in Charlotte's arms immediately.

Mo Yun stood on tiptoe and stretched out her hands.

Charlotte naturally handed Elise, whom she was holding, to Mo Yun.

At that moment, Elise slowly opened her eyes.

She looked around in confusion.

To her astonishment, she discovered several people she recognized there.

Elise quickly recognized that these girls were saints of the church.

Several girls immediately surrounded Elise after she woke up.

Lu Xuan let them do as they pleased.

Just then, a girl carrying a sword walked over.

Li Mengyu looked at Lu Xuan.

"They've gone to kidnap girls again?"

Lu Xuan scratched his head awkwardly.

"this…"

It seems like what they said isn't wrong?

With the comforting words of a young girl, Elise calmly accepted everything before her.

At this moment, a silver-haired girl who was leading the way walked out and stood in front of Lu Xuan.

Isabella.

This was one of the few saintesses whose name Lu Xuan remembered.

Because when she was first brought here, she not only didn't cause trouble, but actually helped manage the saintesses.

She gradually became the leader of the saintesses here.

The girl spoke with neither humility nor arrogance.

"Mr. Lu, today should be the last day of the deadline you mentioned, shouldn't it be time to tell us the so-called truth?"

After the girl said those words, everyone couldn't help but look at Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan's expression gradually became serious.

"Wait a little longer."

"What on earth are you waiting for?"

The girl asked without any politeness.

"Waiting for someone."

"Who?"

Howard Charlotte.

Upon hearing this name, all the saintesses present were momentarily stunned.

This name is extremely famous, especially among the Church of Light.

Howard Charlotte, the current Pope of the Church of Light, would be equivalent to an emperor in any other empire.

Charlotte and Rhodes' expressions became even more complicated after hearing the name.

Charlotte, in particular.

She's a little unsure how to face her grandfather right now.

The problem arose because of her own ignorance when she was young. In fact, Charlotte had wanted to see her grandfather long ago after everything was safe, but something happened in the Federation after she completed her trial.

She and Rod rushed back, and after things calmed down, the matter was put on hold again.

Charlotte didn't know how to face her grandfather.

Over the years, Charlotte had long realized that everything Lu Xuan said back then was a lie.

But given the relationship between the dean and her grandfather, Charlotte had already figured it out: it was her grandfather who didn't want her to cultivate holy light magic.

Why didn't Grandpa want me to practice Holy Light Magic?

Charlotte couldn't understand why she had been raised as a substitute for the saintess since she was a child.

Why should you give up holy light magic?

Charlotte refused to give up and eventually began to practice Holy Light Magic.

At this moment, Mo Yun suddenly sensed something and looked up at Lu Xuan.

“A very powerful old man came to the door.”

Lu Xuan nodded.

"Let him in."

Isabella quietly observed everything throughout.

An elderly man dressed in simple clothes walked in.

Although the old man wasn't wearing the familiar clothes she remembered, Charlotte recognized him at a glance.

Grandpa looks much older now.

Charlotte's tears flowed uncontrollably.

To this day, she still doesn't understand why her beloved grandfather would make her give up holy light magic and the chance to become a saintess of the Kingdom of Light.

Howard Charlotte's eyes were fixed on the blonde girl the moment he walked in, and he didn't look away for a second.

When the old man saw tears streaming from the girl's eyes, he finally went up to her.

The aged hand pulled Charlotte into his embrace.

"Why!"

Charlotte buried her head in the old man's arms and let out a mournful sound.

She has always been mature, sensible, and like a kind older sister next door.

At this moment, Charlotte just wanted to vent all the grievances in her heart.

The old man gently stroked the girl's cheek, trying to soothe her emotions.

After a long while, Charlotte finally recovered.

She looked up at the old man.

Why should I give up?

The old man sighed.

Then he looked at all the girls in the courtyard.

The girl's heart skipped a beat.

The person in front of me is the real Pope!

I'm just a fake saintess!

Isn't this a sheep entering a tiger's mouth?

Fortunately, the old man only glanced at it and didn't say anything more.

"I didn't want you to get involved, but you stubbornly continued to practice Holy Light Magic. Oh well, you've grown up, and I'm getting old. It's about time. I've told you everything."

As he spoke, the old man opened his arms and touched Charlotte's brilliant blond hair with his aged right hand.

Howard looked at Lu Xuan.

"You are White's successor."

Lu Xuan nodded.

Howard scrutinized Lu Xuan carefully.

But all of this was destined to disappoint him.

In his perception, Lu Xuan was just an ordinary person.

Howard didn't dwell on the matter.

"Then let's get started."

"it is good."

The two then prepared to set off.

When everyone present was also preparing to follow suit.

Howard suddenly stopped.

Is it necessary for so many people to know?

Lu Xuan suddenly smiled.

"Since everyone on the mainland will know soon enough, is it necessary to keep it a secret for now?"

Howard was silent for a moment, then continued walking.

Lu Xuan walked to a tombstone in the manor.

Lu Xuan took out the token that White had given him, which he always carried with him.

Howard also took out a token and placed it in front of the tombstone.

A loud rumbling sound followed.

Suddenly, a strange passage appeared in front of everyone by cracking open the ground.

Before anyone could be shocked, Howard went in first.

Everyone had no choice but to follow.

The entire passage was pitch black. Someone tried to use magic to illuminate it, but found that there was a suffocating atmosphere in the space.

This prevents magic from being cast at all.

Li Mengyu carefully sensed this aura.

This aura is very strange.

If you ask her to describe it, it feels like you're facing a higher level of being.

However, the other party's aura didn't seem to be that of a living being.

Li Mengyu glanced at Lu Xuan, who was walking ahead of her, with some worry.

To everyone's surprise, Lu Xuan also turned around at that moment.

"What's wrong? Are you scared? See? I told you not to come, but you insisted on coming."

"Hmph, who's scared?"

Li Mengyu snorted coldly.

"And have you forgotten what you promised me? Repeat it to me right now."

After seeing Li Mengyu shift the hilt of her sword, Lu Xuan obediently replied.

"I can't abandon you, and I can't hide things from you."

"That's pretty much it."
