Chapter 1158: Chapter 395: Magic Potion Master (Part 2)
"Lord Rein, thank you for your understanding and support of headquarters. We will strive to secure as much benefit for you as possible." Tatia immediately laughed and said.
She naturally understood the meaning behind Rein’s words.
Evidently, this powerful Lord Rein before her had a clear grasp of the situation.
Although this time the Conservative Party was forced to make concessions in many aspects, it wouldn’t cause them much harm.
"By the way, Lady Tatia, I would like to ask, how did the Drum Family explain their reason for attacking me?"
"And what about that butler Owen? Since he has been fired by the Drum Family, can we find him?"
At this moment, Tatia, the female major general, looked at Rein with a rather peculiar gaze and said:
"Uh... according to their explanation, Greenwood thought your female companion was particularly beautiful, hence the conflict with you."
These words made Rein slightly taken aback, followed by a soft laugh.
Indeed, the Drum Family wouldn’t tell the truth, they concealed the fact that Anna was an Elf.
Thinking about it, could it be that they haven’t given up yet? Or is there another reason, such as not wanting to involve the people behind it?
"As for that butler Owen, we’ve investigated him the past couple of days and found that he seems to have vanished completely; since leaving the Drum Manor, he has been missing. We suspect he is no longer in this world."
Rein nodded.
Indeed, with such an Imperial dynasty, it’s hard to find some obvious loopholes.
"By the way, what about the Noble Court and Harold’s Isodre School?" Rein paused and asked.
"The Noble Court has been dealt with; the young judge on the day was misled by some people and has currently been demoted. As for the Isodre School..."
"Headquarters has sent a letter requesting information, and the other party’s response is that Harold was also misled and is a victim."
"He is also a victim?" Rein raised an eyebrow, saying.
"Uh... Isodre School, being a large school, headquarters has limited influence over it. Even if we mobilize high-level connections to suppress it, as long as they don’t betray the Empire, logically, they won’t suffer much loss."
"Furthermore, if we do this, the other side might resent Lord Rein even more, potentially causing them to use some covert means against you."
"Of course, our current approach cannot guarantee that they won’t use covert means, it’s just that the chances are reduced."
"For you, if you’re going out recently, it’s wise to remain vigilant. If you’re in the Imperial City, you basically don’t need to worry."
Rein nodded, showing understanding.
Large schools have relatively complete Wizard inheritances, strong overall strength, and the school even has epic-level strong individuals of Imperial Guardian level.
As long as they still serve the Empire efficiently, if he were the Empire Emperor, it wouldn’t be possible to go against them over some minor issues.
However, looking at it from another angle, this isn’t a bad thing. Once he reaches a sufficient level of strength, he can act personally and visit their school station for an exchange.
"Well, Lord Rein, if there’s nothing else, I will return to negotiate compensation with the Drum Family."
"Alright, Lady Tatia." Rein nodded and smiled.
"You’re welcome, Lord Rein." With that, female major general Tatia nodded in acknowledgment to Olena before leaving first.

Meanwhile.
Shirendil Plateau.
Isodre School Station, Nirheim.
As a large Wizard school, Isodre School’s influence in Nirheim permeates all aspects; it’s fair to say that the establishment of the city of Nirheim was primarily to serve the Isodre School.
In the center of Nirheim, inside a magnificent hall.
Several wizards clad in earth-colored Wizard Robes were solemnly reporting something to an elder surrounded by several Earth Element Shields.
Beside them on the ground lay a collected corpse; if Rein were present, he could immediately identify it as the ’Carver’ Harold whom he killed.
"Sect Leader, Harold’s tragic death, as one of our Isodre School’s members most likely to step into epic-level, are we just going to pretend this never happened?" one of the wizards, seemingly closely related to Harold, was passionately arguing.
"Indeed, Sect Leader, this is also a severe blow to our school’s reputation. This matter cannot just be settled like this!" Another wizard echoed.
"Enough! Harold caused this upon himself. As an Imperial Guardian, I cannot act against an Imperial Sword Bearer."
"Furthermore, who in the school could act with absolute certainty of victory?"
"If there is, I will agree to your request and send someone in the name of Isodre School to duel this young man named Rein," the elder said in a deep voice.
"This..."
The group exchanged glances, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Clearly, the combined strength of the few was still beneath Harold’s, and even the strongest legendary Harold was not a match for Rein.
If they were to duel him, not only would they lose, but Isodre School’s reputation would take another hit.
"Sect Leader, are we just going to let this matter go?" a wizard asked reluctantly.
