Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

While the students of the academy set off towards their missions, Professor Rinehart was busy checking the reports of the Peace Keepers.

Around this time of year, there were usually a few cases where students encountered Rogue Wizards, but since there were powerful students like Ethan, who belonged to the Academy’s Secret Forces, most of these problems were nipped in the bud before they could escalate further.

In regards to the missing witches in Grandshire, the Headmaster of the academy made sure to not take any missions that would send their students to Grandshire.

There was only one escort mission, which route would take them to the border of Eastshire and Grandshire while headed to Southshire.

But there were four teams involved in this mission, so he reluctantly accepted the merchant group’s commission.

They were one of the partners of Brynhildr Academy which provided daily supplies, consumables, and other miscellaneous items that were needed in the academy.

This Merchant Group had been working with them for the past forty years, and having them up in the Mission Hall was already routine, so Professor Rinehart accepted their commission. Aside from that one group, everyone else was sent as far away from Grandshire as possible, which Professor Rinehart believed was the best option to prevent his own students from suddenly disappearing while on their missions.

Just as he was about to finish reading the reports on his table, a Raven flew past his window and almost crashed on top of his table.

At the last second, the Raven was able to balance itself and land properly, skidding on the table before collapsing due to exhaustion.

They were sentient Magical Creatures, so they wouldn’t do such a thing just for fun.

But there was an exception.

During emergencies, Ravens were allowed to directly seek the Headmaster of the Academy. And judging by the current state of the Raven, which was still lying and panting on top of his table, Professor Rinehart knew that this was an emergency.

"Excuse me," Professor Rinehart said as he took the metallic cylinder from the Raven’s foot and opened it immediately.

Immediately, a scroll appeared in his vision.

Without even thinking of anything else, he opened the scroll and read its contents.

The handwritten letter only had a few sentences written on it and it was.

"Samantha Blackwood has gone missing during our escort mission. No one knows what happened to her. She went missing while everyone was sleeping. There are no traces of a struggle or any fight.

"She just disappeared, and even after an extensive search, her whereabouts are still unknown. Sabrina and I are still looking for her, Professor, but it seems that we need help as soon as possible."

Professor Rinehart read the letter twice to make sure that he didn’t misread any information about Samantha Blackwood’s disappearance.

After reading the letter a second time, he immediately summoned his crystal ball and channeled his magic into it.

A blurry image appeared on its surface. But a few seconds later, the image became clear, allowing him to see the face of his best friend, Professor Barret.

"Barret, we have a situation," Professor Rinehart said. "One of our students has gone missing during an escort mission at the border."

"A Witch?" Professor Barret asked back, his expression becoming solemn.

"Yes," Professor Rinehart replied. "Samantha Blackwood. A Third Year from Terra Manor."

"If I remember correctly, Luna, Joanne, Hecate, George, and Sabrina are also on that mission, correct?" Professor Barret asked for confirmation.

Professor Rinehart nodded. "George sent me a letter asking for help."

"I understand. I’ll go to them as soon as I can. Tell the Peace Keepers to heighten their patrol along the borders. Make sure to update me if anything else happens." ŘäΝốβĚṡ

"Okay."

The moment the connection was cut off, a sigh escaped the Headmaster’s lips.

He then took out a potion from his storage ring and helped the Raven drink it, helping it recover its strength.

This Raven belonged to George, and it had flown at its top speed for nearly half a day before arriving at Brynhildr Academy.

Now that its mission was over, it closed its eyes to sleep, leaving Professor Rinehart to deal with the aftermath of Samantha’s disappearance.

"Professor, I’ll handle the rest. Go and meet George and the others."

"Thank you, Henry. Please pay attention to our patrol route. If you find anything or anyone suspicious, apprehend them right away."

"Understood, Professor."

The previous Head Prefect of Dud Manor, Henry Weiss, watched as Professor Barret left in haste.

After graduating from the academy, he joined the Magistratus, and he was easily accepted into their ranks.

Due to the current situation, the Magistratus had mobilized to investigate this sudden outbreak of disappearances in Grandshire.

Henry was assigned to coordinate with Brynhildr Academy, allowing him to join their patrols near the border of Grandshire for any suspicious activities.

They thought that they had prepared enough to prevent any Witches from going missing while in Eastshire, but it seemed that the fish they were trying to catch still managed to

Escape from their net.

Meanwhile, somewhere in Grandshire...

Ethan’s Flying Ship was flying to the location where they were assigned to patrol.

They had just left Nightfall Academy a few hours ago, and it would take them a few more

Hours to reach their destination.

Suddenly, Ethan heard Dainsleif’s voice in his head, which took him by surprise.

"Master, we have an emergency," Dainsleif reported. "One of the Witches from George’s team suddenly went missing last night. They searched for her a few hours ago, but it was futile and they found no clue."

Ethan’s face immediately became grim after hearing Dainsleif’s report.

"Who went missing?" Ethan asked.

Since Dainsleif used the term "one of the Witches," it meant that he wasn’t referring to Luna, Joanne, Ramona, Sabrina, or the two Handmaidens that were accompanying his sister.

However, when he heard the name of the missing Witch, Ethan felt as if he had stopped

Breathing completely.

"The name of the missing Witch is Samantha Blackwood," Dainsleif answered. "Master, I’m sorry. I should have been more vigilant."

Ethan’s face hardened as he asked Dainsleif to tell him everything that he knew about the

Incident.

While he wouldn’t go as far as to call Samantha a close friend of his, she was still one of the colleagues whom he had worked with in the past.

After taking a few deep breaths in order to calm himself, the young man listened to Dainsleif’s story. He couldn’t help but feel surprised when he heard the Ancient Wendigo say he didn’t even feel anything unusual in the surroundings before the playful Witch, with different colored eyes, disappeared in the middle of the night.
