I Am Doing Daily Tasks in the Wizarding World

In the classroom, after finishing the lesson on ‘Rune Combination and Linking’, Lynn was preparing to leave when he noticed a wizard apprentice in a black cloak following him.

“Excuse me, are you Mr. Lynn? I would like to ask you a few questions.”

“Sorry, I’m quite busy at the moment and may not have time,” Lynn replied to the unfamiliar voice, waving a hand to decline.

“It won’t take up too much of your time. I’ve heard that you are very skilled in the mutation studies,” the apprentice persisted.

“Who told you that?” Lynn paused in his tracks.

“Lord Wizard Nocturne.”

The apprentice removed his cloak, revealing a face of the Black Crow clan.

Lynn considered this for a moment; this must be a member of Nocturne’s clansmen. However, Nocturne had never mentioned this matter to him before.

“Alright, but I’m a bit busy these days. How about we meet in a few days?” Lynn said.

Though disappointed, the Black Crow apprentice did not press further. He had heard of Lynn’s talent, and there were rumors circulating that Lynn had a great chance of becoming an official wizard in the future. This was likely why Lynn had hardly encountered any trouble recently.

In a place like Demon City, where the focus was primarily on apprentices learning, Lynn’s strength and talent meant that as long as there were no significant conflicts of interest, few would dare to cause trouble.

One could speak ill of wizards, call them evil, paranoid, or even crazy, but one could never call them foolish. Without conflicts of interest or life-and-death enmities, wizards rarely engaged in unnecessary disputes with each other. It was far better to spend such time studying and gaining knowledge.

Back at his residence, Lynn continued his busy life but did not feel pressured. On the contrary, he was enjoying the current atmosphere.

Three days later, Lynn was in a room on the first floor, sitting face-to-face with Liszt, exchanging knowledge on potions. However, most of the time, it was Lynn speaking and Liszt listening. Meanwhile, Ido lounged in a nearby wicker chair, leisurely reading a book.

Ido had no interest in magic potion studies but enjoyed the ambiance at Lynn’s place.

Outside, the noise level had increased, and Lynn looked out the window, seeing a dark mass approaching.

When Lynn caught sight of the figure leading the group, he felt a vague sense of familiarity.

Though cloaked in a hood that obscured his features, the figure’s true identity was unmistakable. The broad wings, the talons that protruded from the sleeves, and the beak of a crow visible from beneath the hood all betrayed his identity.

“Wizard Nocturne, are you still trying to keep your identity a secret?” Lynn stepped outside to greet him, unable to suppress a smile.

“Lynn, as I promised last time, I’ve brought with me the most promising members of my clan,” Nocturne said, removing his hood to reveal his face. He then gestured towards the long line of black figures behind him.

Lynn glanced at the crowd behind him, a sea of black—black feathers, black clothing, and many of the crows were clad in black veils.

“So many?” Lynn was taken aback.

The sheer number of these beings, if added to his forces, would only be overshadowed by the sheer number of the goblins.

The goblin population had already exceeded ten thousand, and Lynn finally understood why goblins were so prevalent in magic planes. They multiply like rabbits on the plains, with no natural predators to curb their growth. ꭆ

Now, there were over a thousand Black Crows. Lynn had initially expected only a few hundred at most.

“One thousand exactly: five hundred males and five hundred females. Don’t worry, this batch of crows has been personally selected by me,” Nocturne explained.

“Among them, five hundred have been promoted to third-level crow scouts, three hundred are third-level heartseeker archers, and the remaining two hundred are third-level crow doom spellcasters.”

A thousand third-level Black Crow professionals—Lynn was stunned by this generous gift.

He truly lived up to being the hope of an entire clan; the weight of this gift was immense.

In fact, if there was a weaker, ordinary kingdom, the mere presence of these thousand third-level professionals could potentially conquer it.

This meant that Lynn’s goal of cultivating followers was nearly fulfilled. With the addition of Redeyes, the four-armed brute force demon, and Lauren’s growth, Lynn would possess a high-level combat force without having to take action himself.

“This is their contract,” Nocturne said, handing Lynn a parchment scroll that glowed with arcane writing.

Lynn glanced at the scroll, which was densely covered in names.

Turning his gaze to the Black Crows’ clansmen, Lynn noted that if one did not look closely, the appearance of these crows was quite similar.

“You’ll stay on the top floor. Have you chosen a leader among you?” Lynn then called out to Lauren.

“My Lord, I am.” One of the Black Crows at the forefront of the Black Crow clan stepped forward.

Looking at the black feathered robe that nearly dragged along the ground, the two golden feathers adorning the cuffs, and the small wooden staff hanging at his waist, it was clear who he was.

Judging by the attire, this individual was indeed the crow doom spellcaster Nocturne had mentioned.

“I am called Xiao Meng, and I follow your commands, my Lord,” the Black Crow said, giving a slight bow and addressing Lynn with polite deference.

“Very well. For now, you may hold this position temporarily,” Lynn replied.

Xiao Meng’s eyes revealed no extraneous emotion, only a slight bow in acknowledgment. “I will follow your orders.”

“Lauren, come over here. Take them to the top floor and arrange their accommodations. Also, procure beds and daily necessities for them,” Lynn instructed Lauren.

Lauren stepped forward and nodded. “Understood.”

“Oh, by the way, there is a junior member of my family who wishes to consult with you. Could you please see to it?” Nocturne mentioned to Lynn.

Lynn recalled the apprentice who had approached him a few days ago. It seemed this apprentice was indeed related to Nocturne. As Nocturne had not previously disclosed this connection, Lynn was uncertain about the nature of their relationship, whether it was amicable or not.

“That would be no problem,” Lynn said with a nod. “I just wasn’t sure if they knew you.”

Nocturne could not help but smile at Lynn’s response. The approval and recognition Lynn showed pleased him greatly, indicating that Lynn valued his opinion highly.

“It was my oversight, and so is yours. How could you disturb Wizard Lynn without my permission?” Nocturne said, turning to the juniors behind him.

The juniors behind Nocturne inwardly smiled wryly, daring not to say anything more except to admit their mistake.

They were just surprised inside; judging from the words of their elder, it seemed that Lynn had already been considered a peer of the same level.

Although Lynn was still just an apprentice, in his heart he had truly regarded him as a wizard.

This Wizard Lynn was indeed not simple; Xiao Lan couldn’t help but elevate Lynn’s status in his mind.

“By the way, here is the item you asked me to inquire about last time. Lady Maybetessa asked me to deliver this to you. She eagerly anticipates the day you become a wizard,” Nocturne said, producing a rolled-up blueprint from his robes and handing it to Lynn.

Lynn’s face lit up with joy. With the blueprint, it would greatly simplify the design of his attack sector and save him a significant amount of time. “Please convey my thanks to Lady Maybetessa,”
