222 Cause of the matter
The atmosphere was depressing, and Kailin stared at the enchanted beetle that was slowly flapping its wings, her face was complicated, and the vigorous and powerful spiritual power on her body was faintly twisted and steaming, and indirectly outlined the outline of her younger brother Jack's body.
β...... Sophie Abbar, how much do you know about her, or do you think this woman has been wronged by me?"
Kailin closed her eyes and was silent for a while, and after settling her mind, she regained her sleekness and composure, and then leaned back on the floating chaise longue and spoke.
"Shar says that Sophie Abal is greedy for money and willful, and that she seems to me to be a sociable woman, accustomed to her own interests, and though not entirely clean, she should not have the courage to disobey the Western School. β
Jack's body speaks to Sophie Abal while talking and laughing, but this woman, as a 'reformist' wizard, has little interest in cleaning up pollution, but is more proficient in all kinds of profit channels and wants Rajak to join the gang.
"What a terrifying prospect! If Lord Eskar really uses any purification technology, then the western region will attract the attention of the entire continent in a short time, and then it will be a waste of resources for both war and reconstruction. β
Sophie Aibar laughs as she talks to Jack about the future of the West, and she is not worried about a possible wizarding civil war, but seems to be planning to take the opportunity to make a fortune to grow her family.
"Medical witch, elite preparation, this guy's talent is definitely among the first-class, but he doesn't have much interest in promotion, and his mind is more focused on accumulating money. β
Jack silently pondered in his heart that Sophie Abal didn't choose the faction because of ideas or ambitions, and that joining the 'reformers' was just because it was easier to make money by researching special technologies, so he didn't feel much about the technical ideas of the bloodline mentor.
Of course, this does not mean that she is a bad person, in Jack's opinion, this woman would be a business genius if she was placed on the original earth, but some of her actions may attract the disgust of many people, even if it is the same faction of 'innovative wizards'.
"Sophie Abbar, who is responsible for resource delivery and facility maintenance in the western region, has also served as the school's medical superintendent for a while, and is now almost always the most capable of scavenging magic stones. β
Kailin waved her hand with a slight sneer, and several scrolls of vellum with jumping numbers flew up to the beetle, most of which recorded the resource data that Sophie Aibar had embezzled and withheld in it.
"A very smart and capable woman, she not only withholds resources privately, but also completes the work assigned by the school smoothly, and others do not do it as well as she does with three times as many materials, so to some extent, most of the high-level officials turn a blind eye to it. β
A little self-deprecating, Kailin felt in her heart that this person was actually very similar to herself, she was the kind of smart person who was good at scheming, but Sophie Abal was more greedy for money.
"These things, not to let the Western School put them on the list, her question is said to have been in contact with the disciples of the bloodline master, what do you mean by showing me this?"
The beetle from which Jack transmitted the sound flew over the table, landing on Kaylin's lap and then standing still, as if to ask the other for his intentions and answers.
"It has a lot to do with it, Sophie Abal has reaped a lot of benefits from this, but her family's resources and assets are not in line with this, not a lot more but a lot less, so you can understand, right?"
Kailin held her forehead and looked at the beetle on her leg, Jack's body was silent after hearing this, the Western School can tolerate you taking kickbacks for the benefit of your family, after all, the official wizards cultivated are also under its management.
However, the inexplicable disappearance of a large amount of resources obtained by Sophie Abal must make people suspicious, after all, the data on these scrolls alone has been able to cultivate more than fifty full-fledged wizards.
"Father of the Serpent, when he first came to the Western Regions, you were in the vicinity, weren't you? I arranged for you to hide your identity and accompany Kakano, when Grandpa Eskar and Dilan Bacchus were taught a lesson by this bloodline master. β
Kailin gently stroked the beetle on her leg, and then sighed, and Jack's body also frowned slightly when he heard this, when the other party also wanted to poke his brain and spirit bubbles.
"At that time, the soul projection of the clerk Andre was the first to feel the scene, but he was blocked by some kind of enchanted item, which was the 'spatial block' made by the Eastern School imitation of the black scorpion Lores, which Sophie Abal had obtained. β
Jack's pupils shrank when he heard Kailin's words, and he understood in an instant, Sophie Abal is a woman who is really capable, and she actually earns all the money from the bloodline wizard!
"In that case, why don't you just suppress the peeping soul memory? If there is definite evidence, the school management will definitely not just wait, right? This situation doesn't need to wait until now to solve it, right?"
The wings trembled, and the enchanted beetle attached to Jack's soul was silent for a moment, and then asked again, and from time to time, it would rub its carapace and blade feathers a few times with a slight irritation.
"Hehe, this is the problem of the four major schools, in fact, it is not only the west that secretly does business with bloodline wizards, there was a time when the southern schools used to steal a large number of people through them, so they also provoked several principals to take action. β
Kailin looked at the little sparks rubbed by the beetle and smiled lightly, she knew that Jack didn't know these things, not because of status and strength, compared to the news channels and networks, it is estimated that some elders in the family are not as good as herself.
"The buying and selling of a large number of mortals, the redemption of defeated heirs, and the exchange of hostages and assassination of wizards of hostile forces, etc., there are a lot of things involved, and many elite wizards are also related to bloodline bugs, of course, there is a certain bottom line. β
Silent, the soul-clinging beetle was quietly held in Kailin's hands, and he estimated that Sophie Aibar was in charge of this shady work, and the higher-ups of the Western School must have known about it.
Sophie Abal volunteered for this job, as it was said that she was mainly responsible for exchanging scientific wizards and special talents that had been captured by the Bloodline Wizards, and that a distant relative of the clerk AndrΓ© had also been ransomed by her. β
Kailin waved her hand as she spoke, and the steaming expensive fragrant tea immediately flew from the corner, and she moistened her lips slightly before speaking again, only now her expression became a little helpless and wry.
"In the western region, there are a total of thirty-nine people in charge of this kind of work, all of whom are strong in the wizard rank, but there are only five people who have been identified as suspicious and have contacted the bloodline wizard in a short period of time, plus Sophie Aibar, not to mention that she has also been in contact with the 'Spatial Blockade'. β
Hearing this, Jack already understood that there was indeed a reason why the Western School would target this woman, after all, she was also a prepared elite wizard, and if there was no problem, she would definitely not be abandoned or killed at will, but ......
"What else? Sha'er is impulsive, but she is not a fool, she can't risk coming to me because of this, it is said that someone wants her to die, is this Sophie Abal going to be killed whether she is innocent or not?"
The insects chirped, and Kailin looked at the corner of the room silently, in fact, she already knew that no matter what happened this time, this woman would definitely be killed, because the interests involved were too big and too eye-catching.
"Before the Wizard Civil War, someone wanted to arrange some helpers, Sophie Abal's bad luck, her position was targeted and there is a reason to be suspicious, Jack, you give up, this time it's an elite shot!!"
