The Genius Mage

Chapter 204: Was Saved

A figure flashed past Parker’s back, and then Kate disappeared. However, that action was too fast. Parker did not even have time to react. When he turned around, there was no one behind him.

What was going on? Parker thought to himself. Logically speaking, as long as someone stepped into this area, he would be able to feel it.

However, when that person came out, he clearly did not have any aura.

If he was not a top-tier expert, then there would not be any explanation.

Parker gritted his teeth and was about to seize the time to finish off Audrey. However, he did not expect that when he raised his eyes, the beautiful azure-blue figure standing in front of him had disappeared.

In its place was a sky full of falling snow, as well as the surrounding temperature that could not help but make people tremble.

“Where is she?” Parker let out an angry shout. He raised his hand and slapped the wall hard.

The wall that had been in disrepair for a long time collapsed with a loud bang.

Audrey looked at the alley that was gradually moving away from her. She looked up at the person who was holding her wrist.

It had been a long time since they last met. Morris was still the same as before. He had neat, short black hair, but the aura around him was different from when they first met.

To put it simply, if Morris had looked like an ignorant hooligan in the beginning, then Morris was now like a rich young master. He exuded a faint air of nobility from the inside out.

“It’s been so long since we last met. I was thinking of sneaking in to look for you.” Morris chuckled. With a tap of his toes, he jumped down from the beam and onto another roof. “I didn’t expect you to come out and meet with such trouble.”

Audrey felt like a little chick in his hand. She felt like she was being controlled.

“I didn’t expect that he would continue to find trouble with me,” Audrey said helplessly.

She felt a wave of dizziness. A moment later, the three of them landed steadily on the ground. It was as though they were a great distance away from the previous battlefield.

Audrey raised her hand and rubbed her temples. “I didn’t expect you to be so strong now. You were able to rescue the two of us from that man’s hands without even being noticed by him.”

Morris moved his wrist and placed Kate firmly on the ground. He looked very natural, and it was impossible to tell that he had just led the two of them for such a long distance.

“So what exactly happened this time? How did you offend him?” Morris asked with a frown.

If it were not for the fact that he had arrived in time this time, Audrey would definitely have…

Morris did not dare to imagine what the situation would be like. After all, the consequences were too difficult to accept.

Audrey shook her head. “I don’t know either. He came to me this time mainly to ask me to withdraw from the Templar Knights. Perhaps it’s because my recent performance in the Templar Knights was a little… outstanding, so he’s holding a grudge against me.”

Morris was silent for a moment. This sentence contained a lot of information. He did not know what had happened to Audrey inside, but if that man held a grudge against her…

It was obviously not a small matter.

“Does that mean that the Carol Association will take action?” Morris guessed.

Audrey nodded affirmatively. “That’s definitely the case. Our place hasn’t been peaceful recently. I’m a little worried now. If the Templar Knights are in chaos, it will definitely affect other places.”

Morris lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment. In the end, he still could not think of a better solution.

After all, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great. Moreover, even if he joined, the biggest obstacle was that they were not together. If there really was a riot in the Templar Knights, he could only stand at the periphery and worry.

“Audrey, you’d better be careful,” Morris said, “if it were me, I would suggest that you quit. After all, it’s better for you to protect yourself first.”

Audrey averted her gaze.

Of course, she knew this logic. However, to her, if she really chose to compromise, it was equivalent to becoming a coward.

Audrey’s pride that was engraved in her bones told her that she could never be a deserter in this life. When she encountered something, she had to truly face it, not choose to give up.

Seeing Audrey’s expression, Morris could roughly guess what she was thinking. He only sighed softly.

“Forget it. I know I can’t persuade you, but it’s best if you know what to do,” Morris said, “you have to know that when you’re in danger, I can’t appear by your side anytime, anywhere. This is just a coincidence.”

He had planned to buy a cake for his sister on the next street, but he suddenly saw an icy-blue light that shot up into the sky. Having stayed with Audrey for so long, Morris was very sensitive to this kind of power, so he rushed over directly.

He had saved Audrey at the critical moment.

Audrey agreed. “I really have to thank you. If it weren’t for you, I might have fallen into his hands by now,” Audrey said, sincerely thanking him.

Morris did not say anything, but his eyes were filled with reluctance.

Audrey could not stay outside forever. To her, perhaps it was safest inside the Templar Knights.
