The Wizard Has A Biochip

— Jane, Kant, Tinod. The three of you come to my office after dinner.

The three immediately nodded.

Seeing that none of them had any objections, I nodded.

— For now, everyone can continue enjoying the meal.

The group nodded and returned to their seats.

Shortly afterward, the sound of cutlery once again filled the hall.

Clink... clink...

But there was a difference.

The atmosphere was much quieter than before.

Although the table was filled with food and the dinner was luxurious, I could sense that something was weighing on everyone’s hearts.

There was no need to prolong that matter.

After dinner, I waited until everyone had left the hall and went to my office.

A short while later, Jane, Kant, and Tinod appeared before the door of my office.

— Come in.

The three entered.

Kant and Tinod were dressed in their armor, which made their bodies look even more imposing.

Jane, on the other hand, continued wearing her usual clothes.

I observed the three of them for a few seconds before sitting down behind the desk.

They were different from the other subordinates.

These three knew my true identity.

They knew that I was a Mage.

And they knew that my existence was far beyond what an ordinary person could comprehend.

I interlaced my fingers on the desk.

— You know that I am a Mage.

— I am about to embark on a journey. For certain reasons, I can only leave you here.

— The orders I gave earlier in front of the others were merely to preserve appearances.

Kant and Tinod immediately became attentive.

— From now on, the two of you must treat Jane the same way you would treat me.

I looked directly at the two of them.

— Understood?

— Understood!

Kant and Tinod answered at the same time.

After finishing my instructions, I made a gesture.

— You may leave.

Kant and Tinod bowed and left the office.

The door closed.

Now only Jane and I remained.

She stood still in front of the desk.

For a few seconds, neither of us said anything.

Then her eyes began to turn red.

— Young... Master...

Her voice trembled.

Tears began to form in her eyes.

I sighed.

I had already expected this.

— I have already obtained an antidote for the poison in your blood.

Jane quickly raised her face.

— What?

I opened a drawer and took out several small bottles.

I placed them on the desk.

— These are for you.

She stared at the potions.

— But...

— Besides that, take this.

I handed her a scroll.

Jane carefully opened it.

Her eyes moved across the lines.

Then they widened.

— Young Master...

— They are letters of authority.

I calmly explained.

— From now on, you will be authorized to manage all of my establishments in the City of Distant Wind.

She stood completely still.

— All of them?

— All of them.

I continued.

— And there is one more clause.

I pointed at the document.

— If I do not return within ten years, all these properties will officially be transferred into your name.

— Lurdot and Viscount Probel are also witnesses to these procedures.

— If any problems arise in the future, you can seek their help.

These earthly properties did not mean much to me.

I could simply buy more land whenever I needed it.

Therefore, leaving everything in Jane’s hands was a kind of insurance.

A way to ensure that she could survive even after I left.

Besides...

I already knew that, according to the rules of the Arcane Tower, acolytes couldn’t simply take their followers or ordinary servants with them to the academy’s properties.

I would have to leave everything behind anyway.

There was no reason to regret it.

— Jane, this is the Green Forest Snake.

— It is a special tool used to control Kant and Tinod.

— You must keep it safe.

She bit her lip.

— No...

I frowned.

Jane pressed the scroll against her chest.

Then, unexpectedly, she stepped forward.

She hugged my legs.

— Young Master...

Her voice was completely overcome with tears.

— Don’t leave Jane behind!

I looked down.

Jane was trembling.

Tears slid down her face.

— Jane wants to stay by the Young Master’s side.

She tightened her arms around my legs.

— No matter what I have to do, I can have anal sex, I can suck and drink Master’s hot, frothy cum with my tongue and give him so much pleasure...

I remained silent.

I could feel how much courage she had gathered to say that.

I extended my right hand.

I gently ran my fingers through her hair and then over her back.

— Jane...

My voice came out softer.

— I’m sorry.

She raised her face slightly.

— Our time together was delightful; I really had countless orgasms with you.

— But the place I’m going is extremely dangerous for you.

— But...

She seemed about to argue.

My expression hardened.

— Don’t argue!

— Just listen to me.

Jane froze.

She knew that expression.

She knew that tone.

And she knew that when I gave an order in that manner, there was no room for discussion.

Pain appeared in her eyes.

But she finally nodded.

— Yes, Young Master...

She slowly released my legs.

She picked up the scroll and the box.

For a few seconds, she continued looking at me.

She looked like a cat abandoned by its owner.

I opened another part of my clothes and took out some potions.

I handed them to her.

— Take them.

Jane received the bottles.

— This is a recovery potion.

I explained:

— It can quickly heal physical injuries. Keep it safe.

Then I took out a small red crystal.

I placed it in her hand.

— And this is even more important.

Jane looked at the crystal.

— If you ever encounter an enemy that even Kant or Tinod cannot face...

I pointed at the crystal.

— Throw this at the target.

Jane became serious.

— Understood?

She closed her fingers around the crystal.

— Jane understands.

Her eyes were red.

But she didn’t cry again.

She simply nodded.

— Very well.

She bowed.

— Then go get some rest.

Jane hesitated.

Then she turned around.

She walked toward the door.

Before leaving, however, she stopped.

She looked at me one last time.

— Young Master...

— Yes?

She opened her mouth.

But she didn’t say anything.

She simply bowed again and left.

The door closed.

I was alone.

I looked at the place where she had been standing.

— Sigh...

I let out a long sigh.

I had prepared many things.

Even so, I knew that after ten or twenty years, that small faction I had left behind would probably gradually disappear.

But there was no regret.

They were ordinary people.

None of them possessed enough aptitude to follow the path of magic.

In the future, their usefulness to me would be limited.

Probably, the greatest function of that small organization would be to serve as a cover for my existence.

And even so...

It wasn’t a particularly secure cover.

In the end, entrusting everything to Jane hadn’t been a bad choice.

From that moment onward... Jane was a free person.

If Jane had fallen into the hands of another Mage, her life would probably have been completely different.

She might have been treated merely as a tool.

After the Mage’s interest in her diminished, she might have ended up being used in some experiment.

I stood up.

The problematic matters had been resolved.

I looked around the office.

Now all that remained was to completely dismantle the experimental laboratory and the underground passages.

I descended into the underground area.

That area was forbidden.

I had established that rule myself.

Jane, Kant, and Tinod would not dare enter without my permission.

The light from the lanterns attached to the walls faintly illuminated the path.

Everything was exactly as I had left it.

I walked to a certain point.

Then I took out a crystal ball.

Inside it was the figure of an old man.

His face was distorted.

His eyes were filled with madness.

And there was something even deeper within them.

Terror.

— We meet again.

I brought the crystal ball closer to my face.

— False spirit claiming to be the Great Mage Redof.

The figure inside the ball immediately retreated.

— No...

— Don’t come!

He pressed himself against the inner walls of the sphere.

I continued smiling.

To me, this was merely an experiment.

But to that spirit...

My smile probably looked worse than that of a demon.

I carefully placed several tools around the crystal ball.

The spirit began to realize what I was doing.

— No...

— Please...

I ignored the plea.

— I have good news for you.

— The good news is that I’ll be leaving here for a while.

He seemed confused.

Before he could respond, I continued:

— And now the bad news.

— No matter where I go... You’re coming with me.

— No!

The spirit began to scream.

— No! No! I beg you!

His expression contorted completely.

— Please! No!

I picked up one of the tools.

— Then let’s start in a different way.

— Tell me everything you know.
