Mystic Overlord: Reading Gives Strength-Chapter 535 - 532: Cleanup Plan

"Golden Planet..."

"Immovable Colossus..."

"Northern Glacial Research Society..."

Ronald read down the list provided by Bapulor, his expression somewhat speechless.

Just as this cult Magician had said, those causing trouble at this juncture were all irrelevant characters, one could tell by their names that there weren’t many formidable ones.

After looking through about half of it, Ronald couldn’t help but speak up,

"Bapulor, you’ve managed to collect so many names, doesn’t the Investigation Bureau intend to manage these people?"

"Are the two comparable?" Bapulor looked somewhat shocked but quickly explained to Ronald, "The people in the Investigation Bureau are official personnel who abide by the law."

"For crimes not yet committed, they can only adopt a surveillance approach."

"It’s absolutely impossible for us to take action like this."

Crimes not yet committed...

Ronald immediately understood why the Investigation Bureau had not intervened.

Sometimes, as an official force, they indeed had some restrictive rules; under such a premise, they as ’civilian personnel’ were indeed much more convenient.

His gaze shifted back, and Ronald continued reading the list:

"Ten Laws..."

"Cult Magician..."

Ronald paused in mid-sentence, then suddenly looked up,

"Hmm? Cult Magician?"

"Bapulor, what does this mean!"

At the very bottom of the list, there were names of Casters with the title of cult Magicians. As long as Ronald wasn’t blind, he could definitely recognize what these names meant.

On the other side of the table, Bapulor looked extremely aggrieved.

Facing Ronald’s questioning, His expression drawing in, he began to complain,

"Ronald, you don’t know how tiring my job is. I have to work hard at my day job to support the family and also avoid the Investigation Bureau’s encirclement and chase; not to mention that the sect’s matters can’t be delayed for too long."

"It’s really too difficult for a living person like me to manage so many things, so sometimes it’s inevitable that I miss a few things in the sect, so that should be understandable, right?"

After a series of grievances and complaints, Bapulor heavily poured himself another cup of water and drank it down.

"To be honest!"

"I really feel so tired!"

"If this continues, my mental state will definitely become a problem... or maybe I should now start looking for a psychiatrist, I remember there’s an especially impressive person at the ’Society of Scrolls’?"

"..."

Generally speaking, being serious with a neurotic is not a very normal choice.

So Ronald just sighed and then placed the list back in front of Bapulor.

"Alright, I understand."

"I have no objections to clearing out these people with malicious intent, but do you have a specific action plan and timeline?"

Bapulor appeared somewhat distracted.

However, he immediately answered Ronald’s question:

"I’ve divided these people into three parts based on city districts, and plan to handle them in batches over three days. However, our sect people are quite special, so they are set aside to be dealt with on the fourth day."

Ronald continued to question Bapulor:

"What about the operatives?"

"Just the two of us." the head of the cult Magicians answered without hesitation then rarely added an explanation, "Most of these people aren’t much of a big deal, the two of us wielding the originals is enough. If more people go, not to mention the potential of alarming them, the Investigation Bureau will come looking for trouble!"

"..."

A very reasonable explanation, Ronald even found no angle to argue against.

Yes, one must consider the Investigation Bureau.

If more people get involved, the likelihood of being discovered by the Investigation Bureau would definitely increase greatly.

Then...

Cult Magicians engaging in large-scale melee, with repeated fatal incidents.

No guesses needed, it was clear the trouble this would cause.

"Ah..."

Ronald couldn’t help but sigh.

Leaning back into his chair, he shifted to a more relaxed position to soothe his nerves.

Meanwhile, Bapulor continued talking about his plan:

"I plan to refine the details over the next two days, so in three nights, I will come to your house and we will follow the plan."

"Ronald, what do you think?"

Ronald waved his hand lethargically:

"I’ll follow your lead, it’s a real pleasure working with you!"

Bapulor probably didn’t catch the sarcasm in Ronald’s words.

Seeing the man in front of him agree to his plan, he enthusiastically gathered the papers from the table and started organizing them back into his briefcase.

"See you in three days."

"By the way, consider the novel publishing deal a success. Good luck with your writing!"

Having achieved his goal for today’s trip to the White Star District, Bapulor had no intention of staying longer.

He got up, walked to the door, and left the office.

And Ronald, still sitting in his original spot.

He could even hear the tune the cult magician hummed as he left.

Evidently, Bapulor was thrilled.

"..."

"How about it, Ronald?"

"Enjoy negotiating with that guy?"

A few minutes later, as Hyeloise finished organizing the files, she moved towards the table where the cult magician had drunk his water and began teasing Ronald:

"Isn’t it much easier to communicate without all those intense strategic calculations?"

Ronald almost collapsed on the sofa and rolled his eyes:

"I’m slowly realizing something."

"Talking with normal people is actually a blissful thing."

After chatting casually with Hyeloise, Ronald finally sat upright on the sofa.

His tone became serious and earnest as he looked at the young woman and asked:

"Those names from earlier, what do you make of them?"

It was utterly impossible to fully trust Bapulor.

It was better to consult Hyeloise about this matter.

"Most of the names are fine." Seeing Ronald’s expression, the girl also adopted a meticulous demeanor, "The names you read earlier, I’ve been watching, they all are people whose own worth is unclear."

"But there are those last few names..."

As Hyeloise’s tone became somber, Ronald interjected:

"Are you referring to those cult magicians?"

"Cult Magicians from Bapulor’s school who chose betrayal?"

Hyeloise nodded, then immediately mentioned a name:

"Little William Ireland, there’s a guy with this name you need to watch out for."

"If my memory serves me right, this person is very important among the cult magicians, almost Bapulor’s right-hand man."

"..."

At that moment, all Ronald could muster was a sheepish grin.

Even the Vice Sect Hierarch could turn...

This guy still manages to find time to work, is there even more to investigate?

Only Bapulor could pull this off!

He really is something!
