Chapter 122: Chapter 122: The Meeting

Duke spent considerable effort relying on polite inquiries to find the location of this meeting. His handsome appearance and perfect physique also provided him with many conveniences, as he inquired primarily with female wizards. During this process of asking for directions, several female wizards had already added his Wizard's Mark. Duke hadn't anticipated being so popular, not realizing that in the eyes of those female wizards, he was as enticing as a fresh fruit. The few female wizards he had recently added were all of Official Wizard level. Duke felt he needed to be cautious as he had no self-defense abilities in front of these Official Wizards. The meeting was held in a spiral staircase room, surrounded by concentric circles of seats, with a podium at the bottom serving as the speakers' area. Duke met Steven, the branch president of the Harbor City's Magic Potion Association. Steven was an elderly man with graying hair, sharp eyes like an eagle, a prominently hooked nose, and a pair of round glasses perched on it. As he took the information Duke brought, Steven sighed and muttered to himself, "Hela is a promising talent, such a pity. I wish she could come, we need more exchanges, always cooped up on that island." He genuinely hoped Hela could come, but in the end, she just sent a Wizard Apprentice to handle things. After Duke submitted Hela's Blood of War improvement plan, his remaining task was merely to sit in Hela's seat until the evening concluded and then leave. This was his entire work content; the meeting did not require him to speak. He just needed to listen, though he most likely wouldn't understand. Duke specifically brought a quill pen and notebook to record some of the meeting content. It didn't matter if he couldn't understand; he decided to jot everything down and research later. Duke wouldn't pass up such an opportunity to gain insights into Magic Potion knowledge. After finding Hela's seat amidst the densely packed chairs, he sat down. After a while, Duke saw an unexpected person - Land Master's student, Merrick. Merrick naturally didn't recognize Duke, as he was currently sitting beside a stern-looking middle-aged man, showing great respect.
