Soon, they returned to the city. At this moment, Norton had already sent someone to wait for them. When he saw them arrive, he immediately placed the injured Howen on a stretcher and carried him back to the Nicholas family clan for treatment. The few of them were all top students of the Sky Blue Magic Academy, so they definitely had to be carefully treated. The bones in Klein’s arms had been broken, and Serena had several wounds which were fairly big. Instantly, the entire Nicholas family clan became busy.

When they were not paying attention, the gatekeeper in the family ancestral hall had quietly appeared at the door again. At this time, Karuman had changed into a set of clean clothes, but beneath the clean clothes, he still had injuries on his body. He sat quietly at the door and started to recuperate. After he had recovered a little, he looked at the busy members of the Nicholas family clan and thought silently.

I have risked my life to protect the genius of the Nicholas family clan. This should be a major contribution. I wonder if the Master will reward me?

As he thought of this, he suddenly felt a little forlorn. He was a dignified level-4 Great Archmage.

Since when have I risked my life for someone unrelated to me? And I even want to ask for a reward from others?

Just as this thought had risen in his mind, he suddenly felt a cold wind blow past his back, giving him goosebumps. He suddenly turned around and looked, but there was nothing there except the high and mighty spirit tablet.

On the other side, after Serena and the others had been treated, Howen and Fiona, the two with serious injuries, went to rest. Then, Serena and Klein, who were not too seriously injured, gathered together. Norton, Ron, and the others asked why they had been pursued, and Serena told them the whole story directly without hiding anything.

It turned out that after they had left Winterfrost that day, they had retraced their steps to return to the Sky Blue Magic Academy. However, halfway through their journey, they encountered an assassination attempt by this group of people. Fortunately, they had a Warning Talisman, which had been given to them by their teacher. With the timely alert from the Warning Talisman, they did not fall into the trap the other party had set up. Otherwise, on the first attack of the other party, they would all have been killed. Subsequently, they were pursued all the way. In the beginning, they had planned to break through the other party’s encirclement to return to the Sky Blue Magic Academy. If they could get to their academy, those few assassins would be dead for sure. However, the few assassins also knew this, so they deliberately prevented them. They could not defeat the other party, so they could only retreat and seek the next best option. They fought as they retreated in the direction of Winterfrost. They were outnumbered and their strength was inferior to the other party. Fortunately, they had the Magic Scrolls with them, given by their teacher. With the Magic Scrolls, they blasted and killed three of them first, so that the rest dared not pursue them as unrelentingly. Until they arrived outside the city of Winterfrost, these assassins knew that once they got inside the city, they would not be the City Lord’s opponents, so they launched a powerful wave of attack at them. Howen had fought desperately and was injured before Fiona managed to break through their encirclement, and make her way back into the city to report the matter. The rest of the story, Norton and the others already knew.

Everyone then asked who the assassins were and why they were being pursued, but Serena and Klein did not know anything about this. They did not know the assassins at all, nor did they know what kind of power the other party had.

After understanding the ins and outs of the matter, Norton frowned. Everything else could still be discussed, but they must figure out the identities of the assassins. Otherwise, what if they came back again? Now that the Nicholas family clan was involved, what if these people killed their way into the Nicholas family clan?

In order to prevent such a thing from happening, Norton asked Zoro to go to the place in the woods where the battle had taken place to retrieve the bodies of those few assassins. He also asked him to clear the grounds there, so that no one would be able to tell it had been a battlefield.

Also, Ron had brought back a survivor who was currently being held in a dungeon of the Nicholas family clan. They could interrogate the other party later and perhaps be able to get some information out of him.

Norton then got someone to notify Colin Campbell. Their family had a messenger pigeon which had been handed over to them by the Sky Blue Magic Academy so that they could contact the magic academy if there was an urgent matter. Now, this was a very important matter, so they released the messenger pigeon. The Sky Blue Magic Academy would probably receive the news very soon. Once the Sky Blue Magic Academy learned that their students had been pursued, they would definitely send someone over immediately. When that time came, Norton could be completely at ease. Even if those assassins were really from some very powerful assassin organization, they would still have the Sky Blue Magic Academy shielding them. There would be no need for the Nicholas family to worry.

“Master, the Deputy City Lord has come to visit,” At this moment, a servant came over and reported.

“Quick, invite him in,” Norton said hurriedly, upon hearing. After all, the other party was the Deputy City Lord, he dared not slight him.

Soon, a bald middle-aged man came in. This person was the Deputy City Lord, who was already at the full level of the Great Mage realm. He was definitely an expert. After Norton and the other party had exchanged pleasantries, the other party explained the purpose of his visit. It turned out that he had also heard about Howen and the other top students of the Sky Blue Magic Academy being pursued outside their city. He had come specially to check out the situation. After all, the other party were top students of the Sky Blue Magic Academy. If they had really been killed near Winterfrost, and the Sky Blue Magic Academy put the blame, not to mention him, even City Lord Lein, who was a Great Archmage, would not be able to bear the consequences, let alone him, a Deputy City Lord. More importantly, the City Lord had something on and was out of the city. In this case, all the blame would fall on him.

Upon hearing that none of them was in danger, the Deputy City Lord was relieved. However, he still took out many items meant for treating injuries and even offered to take those injured to the City Lord Residence to recuperate, so they could be protected under the security of the City Lord Residence. However, Serena declined politely, and the Deputy City Lord did not insist. After all, if they really came to the City Lord Residence, it would also be troublesome. Now that the other party had declined, he had fulfilled his responsibility. Even if something were to go wrong, he would have an excuse for himself. Then, the Deputy City Lord went to see Howen and Fiona, the two who were unwell. He saw that they were indeed fine before leaving. Before he left, he said that he had already sent a message on this matter to the City Lord, and that he believed the City Lord would return quickly upon hearing the news. When back, the City Lord would certainly handle this matter personally, and even investigate the identities of the assassins..
