Chapter 41 Tracking down clues

Roger walked into the small building and saw a table inside the door. Behind the table was a girl with a sweet smile, but he did not feel the magic fluctuations from the girl.

"Master Magician, are you doing anything?" The girl immediately asked with a professional smile when she saw Roger come in.

Today, Roger came to the Magician Guild and wore the magician robe rewarded by King William.

"I heard that when a magician has difficulties, he can go to the Magician Guild for help, right?" Roger asked. He secretly lamented that the girl did not despise him because he was a child, and still called him "Master Magician", which shows that she was well-trained.

"Yes, but that's only for the magicians registered by the Magician Guild. And help is not at no cost. After all, there are not so many people in the Magician Guild who specifically serve magicians." The girl replied with a smile.

"I am a student of the Enpe Magic Academy. Now I have the level of a second-level magician. I would like to ask you to help me identify the origin of this badge." Roger took out the badge and said.

"My wizard, although I believe you are definitely of the second-level magician level, according to the regulations of the Magician Guild, you still need to test before you can be granted the second-level magician qualification. The fee is 10 gold coins. The identification requirements you have to officially become a registered magician in our Magician Guild before we will accept it." The girl explained patiently.

"OK, where to test it? I'll test it!" Roger thought to himself, and it wouldn't be possible if he didn't register with the Magician Guild.

"Please follow me! Go upstairs from here!" After hearing this, the girl smiled and led Roger to the second floor.

The one who tested Roger's magic was a gray-bearded man who looked almost 62 years old. There were three test contents. In addition to the mental power and elemental attributes he had tested when he entered the Magic Academy, he also added a magic mastery test. The test process was also quite simple, just cast a second-level wind magic.

Roger casually cast a second-level wind magic tornado, and the old man nodded, and he passed the level. Soon, the old man took a badge, wrote some special symbols on it with magic, and handed it over to Roger.

"This is the badge that you prove your identity in the Magician Guild. It has a special magic rune. Any branch of the Magician Guild in mainland China can seek help and accept tasks with this badge. Of course, rights and obligations are equal. If you seek help, you will definitely pay a certain price, and you will be rewarded to help the Magician Guild complete the tasks."

Roger took the badge and looked carefully, and found that the badge was purple, the shape was exactly the same as the one hexagonal star he took off from the killer, except that there was a letter "M" engraved on the front of his badge, while the badge of the killer was green, and the letter "D" engraved on the front.

"Teacher, what do you think of this badge? It feels like my magician badge." Roger handed the killer's badge to the old man and asked.

"Oh! This is the badge of the Thieves Guild. It was probably taken from a thief." The old man put on his glasses and looked carefully, and said.

"Then teacher, can you tell which thief this badge belongs to?" Roger was overjoyed after hearing this, and finally had a clue.

"We can only check the information of the magician. You can get the information of the thief to check it out." The old man shook his head and said.

"Okay, thank you!" Roger said thanking and left the Magician Guild.

After Roger walked out of the Magician Guild, he went straight to the Thieves Guild, where he paid a gold coin inquiry fee and found out that the thief badge belonged to a third-level thief named Lombardo. The thief was a lonely person and was afraid of death, so no one was willing to be friends with him. He was a member of the "Holy Sword Mercenary Group" a month ago, but because he abandoned his companions and fled while performing a mission, he had been fired by the mercenary group.

Roger asked in the Thieves Guild. Someone said that the last time the thief named Lombardo appeared was when someone saw him drinking at the Red Coral Bar last night and then lost his trace. As for who Lombardo had been in contact with, no one knew.

After Roger walked out of the Thieves Guild, he sighed and said to himself: "It seems that the clues were interrupted after finding this. Continuing to check is probably beyond my ability... Forget it, I'd better go home first and reunite with my parents and brothers at home, and then consider continuing to investigate."

*********************************************************************

In a dark house in Hotante City, a tall man in black was sitting on a chair and carefully looking at a stack of information. If Lombardo was here now, he would definitely scream. This was the mysterious man who asked him to kill Roger in the bar that day.

At this time, a middle-aged man with a panicked look rushed in from outside the door, dressed in a mercenary. As soon as he walked into the door, he immediately said, "Sir, Lombardo failed!"

"What?" the man in black stood up immediately and angrily scolded: "Is Lombardo a good meal? A third-level thief can't even attack and kill a thirteen-year-old first-grade magic apprentice?"

"He has been killed, as if he died of the Wind Blade!" The middle-aged mercenary stood in front of the man in black, looking nervous.

"It seems that the Roger we are going to kill is learning wind magic. Damn it! Lombardo is too useless! I wasted ten gold coins in vain! Do you actually recommend this kind of waste to me?" The man in black said with an angry look on his face.

The middle-aged mercenary lowered his head and did not dare to show up. He recommended Lombardo at that time because he was single, had no friends, and was notorious, even if he silenced him later, no one would investigate the whereabouts of this person. But he didn't know that Lombardo was so useless.

"Did you come here to tell me about this?" The man in black finally calmed down after a while.

"There is another letter that was sent by the country urgently. Please take a look!" The middle-aged mercenary took out a letter from his pocket of his clothes and respectfully handed it to the man in black.

After receiving the letter, the man in black tear apart, his expression suddenly changed. Then he immediately ordered: "Call up all the people stationed in Baissus immediately. Except for the necessary intelligence personnel, all the others will go to Is! Meeting with people from the country! It seems that the marshal is ready to have a big fight!"

"Okay! I'll inform you immediately. However, about Roger..." the middle-aged mercenary asked hurriedly.

"Roger's words are aside in advance, and then I'll talk about it later! He is just a thirteen-year-old magic apprentice, and he can take his life at any time. Now our main energy is to prepare this matter for Is! You inform everyone to gather in Balatan, the capital of Is within a month. The location is still the old Rose Wine Bar in the past!" the man in black said sternly.

The middle-aged mercenary responded and hurried down.

The man in black sighed and began to pack up the information on the table and prepare to transfer it.
