Chapter 124: Lynn: What? I'm the Sorcerer Merk?
Herlram gazed at Iyeta, bound on the high platform, her face twisted in agony. He seemed reluctant, but his expression soon hardened as he turned to Lynn and asked, "You don't seem surprised?"
"Surprised? Perhaps a bit, but isn't there only one great wizard in Iyeta Harbor?" Lynn replied casually, seeing that Herlram didn't seem to have any intention of harming him.
In that moment, all of Lynn's previous doubts had been dispelled. To gather so many Tier 3 wizards, form the "Faceless," and create a virtual domain, one had to be a great wizard. However, Lynn had previously thought this had something to do with the sorcerer Merk. After all, many of the psychic books he had collected in Ladek had Merk's name on them, and the Soul-Devouring Array was also Merk's creation.
But now, in hindsight, there were too many anomalies in Iyeta Harbor. In a situation where the council had completely banned the study of psychic arts, an organization like the "Faceless" had emerged, consisting entirely of psychic wizards.
In addition, the power of Nos and his "Scarlet Thorns" faction was too extensive. They not only had six Tier 3 wizards as core members but also more than ten official wizards and hundreds of wizard apprentices. Even Sheriff Leia had some unclear connection with the "Scarlet Thorns."
Coupled with the chaotic scene of magic workshops in the southern district...
It was either that Herlram, the ruler of the harbor, was too inept, or it was the deliberate result of his actions.
Now it seemed to be the latter!
"So, does that mean Nos' actions today were also at your behest?" Lynn couldn't help but ask.
"No, that was his own idea. I believe Nos planned to take advantage of my absence to break free from my control using the Soul-Devouring Array, and that's it," Herlram replied succinctly.
Lynn, however, didn't believe a word of it. Since Herlram was here, it meant that Nos' little plan was still within Herlram's expectations.
In other words, Herlram had intentionally leaked information, letting Nos know he had left Iyeta Harbor. Then Nos had the audacity to go hunting the Eye of Death while simultaneously setting up the Soul-Devouring Array.
Herlram carefully selected over ten Tier 3 wizards eager to break through, distributing the fragmented psychic research materials he had acquired. These individuals, in secret, continued the research in psychic arts on his behalf.
As expected, with the relentless efforts of Nos and others, along with countless sacrifices, they had managed to reconstruct the methods of setting up the Soul-Devouring Array and transferring a soul into another body within a mere three years. They were only missing the material to replace the Heartdevil Blood and one other crucial technique.
It was at this critical moment that Lynn suddenly appeared in Iyeta Harbor, bringing two highly essential items with him—airships capable of defeating the Eye of Death and the intact body of a witch that had lost her soul.
It all seemed too perfect, like a gift specially prepared for himself, which is precisely why Herlram felt a hint of fear.
Just like the "Scarlet Thorns" in his hands, he briefly doubted whether he, too, was just a pawn in a larger game.
In the major battle back then, everyone believed that the sorcerer Merk was dead. However, Herlram, who had read numerous psychic books, had a premonition that the sorcerer hadn't truly perished.
For these three years, it appeared as if the sorcerer Merk had completely disappeared, perhaps leaving the realm of wizards. But he would surely return someday!
Herlram stared at Lynn in front of him. Although the fluctuations in magical power did not match, there was a possibility that the fusion of their souls had caused a change. Therefore, he had no choice but to suspect that the person before him was the sorcerer Merk!
After all, the timing of his appearance was just too perfect!
In response to Herlram's questioning, Lynn countered, saying, "If I were the sorcerer Merk, a former grand wizard, I would never reveal a flaw on the training ground, exposing my true identity."
"It's clear you've made a mistake. I am Lynn and only Lynn, nothing more," Lynn stated firmly.
