I Might As Well Quit This Lousy Wizard Profession

The sounds overlapped, rising and falling in pitch, eerily unnatural.

“You’ve made a breakthrough with your witchcraft, and you’ve returned to the Tree Hole Headquarters, only to be discovered in the archive room. Then I found out something was wrong with you, and you started claiming you were hiding inside a newcomer to slip past unnoticed!”

“But I have seen through your despicable tactics!”

“There is no such thing as a newcomer wizard, it was you all along!”

“Codename Painter? Ha, just look at that ‘Oil Painting Vortex’ sorcery you used when battling the Witch Hunter Knights, and how you transformed from a black cat to a snow leopard. I know everything now! You even dared to return to the Tree Hole Headquarters!”

“That painting sorcery must be an upgraded version of your ‘Dizzy’ sorcery, right?”

“You took advantage of the difficult moment when I was being devoured by witchcraft, the times when I was in terrible shape from the witch hunter knight’s wounds, to deceive and launch a sneak attack!”

“You’re coveting my Witch Organization!”

“You’re coveting my experimental subjects!”

The more he spoke, the angrier he became. And as he spoke, it seemed as if the whole world was shaking and trembling.

By rights, Lin An should have been thinking of a way to escape at this point.

But he didn’t.

He felt different somehow, as the emotions ‘suppressed numbness’ and ‘pursuing thrill’ were digested, he really felt a bit different.

An indescribable feeling.

He just listened calmly, tilting his head curiously at the massive and eerie spirit, his lips unintentionally curving into a smile, unsure why he even felt like smiling.

Then, his mind seemed to dance frantically, like a child with ADHD, thoughts bubbling over.

‘Kapok’…

It appeared to be just a plant that grew from the ground through a corpse by one of the big banyan’s aerial roots.

And the ‘Camellia Tree,’ which Lin An had heard could be catalysed to grow with emotion, the source plant for cuttings that every new wizard must request from the organization to organize their emotions.

It was simply another plant extended from the banyan tree’s aerial roots.

There was also a papaya tree and a pine tree.

So…

Indeed, this was the ‘Kapok’ in its complete form—the great banyan tree.

No wonder the Witch Hunter Knights could never find him.

He moved within the male witch organization under the pseudonym ‘Kapok,’ and when the Witch Hunter Knights sensed the essence of ‘tree’ in him, they called him ‘Kapok Tree.’

But in fact, he was the great banyan tree.

The difference between the Kapok Tree and the great banyan tree was so vast that it naturally led the search in a different direction.

Lin An couldn’t help but recall the spiritual banyan tree at his home, with a little house hanging from a large treetop, shown to him by the head with newly gained eyes sharing its spiritual vision. (121)

The location of that spiritual banyan tree was also a real banyan tree in the material world!

Located by the lake at the middle of Yunlu Mountain, Lin An had even undergone the Witches’ Assembly’s witch awakening ceremony next to that very banyan. Zhou Xiaoxiao nearly fell into the lake during her awakening. (23)

Lin An blinked, his smile growing even wider.

“I’ve caught you!” he exclaimed earnestly.

But his words were disconnected, as Lin An wasn’t looking at the ‘Kapok’ male witch’s probing gaze, but at the spirit manifested at a different angle from the gaze.

The ‘Kapok,’ thinking the ‘Little Rabbit’ kid in front of him was just spouting nonsense as usual, did not react. The four corpses hanging from the spiritual great banyan tree’s aerial roots continued their own mutterings as if they had heard nothing.

Lin An smiled, a whirlwind of thoughts raging through his mind.

By all means, at this time, he should have transformed rapidly into a black cat, then into the Classic of Mountains and Seas Monster, Zou Yu, and using this form capable of safeguarding his life, fled the place.

He should then go to the Antler Witch-Hunting Knight Order and tell them that he, the undercover, had finally made an achievement: he had found the exact location of the ‘Kapok Tree.’

Come and kill him quickly.

It was he who had turned Lin An into an experimental subject during his cataract surgery, causing Lin An to go blind.

It was he who forced Lin An into the Supernatural World, struggling on roads with dead ends at every turn, searching for a chance to live between the witch and the Witch Hunter Knights.

It was he who made Lin An anxiously care about when the other side would discover that his real identity, ‘Lin An,’ was not blind and would then recapture him to be an experimental subject.

Lin An had every reason to call the Witch Hunter Knights to kill this evil witch.

But he made no move.

He just tilted his head, smiling at the other.

Inside, something dangerous was whirling, a thought so unlike the honest life of a salaryman he had led before that it felt perilous.

What would happen if the ‘Kapok’ male witch was killed?

Oh~

The Tree Hole Organization of the Mad Male Witch, having lost its protective strongman, would certainly be cleansed by the Antler Witch Hunter Knights.

Then the Antler Witch-Hunting Knight Order seemed to no longer need Lin An as an undercover agent.

And without this undercover identity, how was he to use it to conceal his identity as a wizard?

Even Professor Cao and Doctor Zhang, who knew about his identity as a wizard, he still needed this cover to conceal his constantly increasing powers.

——It’s all your fault, it was you who made me go undercover, and I got deeper and deeper into it, year after year; do you know how I’ve lived these past three years?

Positioning himself as the aggrieved party, he really could gain a lot of advantage.

Besides, without this undercover identity, through what channels could he gain knowledge of witches’ witchcraft? Sneak into the Antler’s warehouse? Or seek out the dangerous Chen Xinmi?

Perhaps all that was left was Chen Shuyun to teach him.

But Chen Shuyun’s state was too dangerous, who knew when she would turn into a Sorcerer Zombie, and without an undercover identity, he had also lost the excuse to associate with this witch.

So…

The ‘Kapok’ male witch must stay alive!

Or rather, he must make the Antler Witch Hunter Knights believe that the ‘Kapok’ male witch was still alive!

And the dangerous idea that Lin An had was…

He could draw on spirituality, he could devour spirituality, he could devour others’ witchcraft, and he also had a miraculous shapeshifting leather armor…

He had so many possibilities, he could replace the ‘Kapok’ male witch!

Become the ‘Kapok’ male witch in the eyes of the Antler Witch-Hunting Knight Order.

The only pity was…

The spirituality in the depths of his body had now been completely used up, and the collected spirituality of Chen Xinmi, Chen Shuyun, and others was also very minimal.

And observing and mapping out spirituality was the technique that consumed the most spirituality in his utilization of it.

“Don’t get excited…”

Lin An gently spoke to the spiritual essence of the great ‘Kapok’ male witch’s banyan tree, praying it would leave him some time to collect and map out spirituality.

“How can I not be excited!”

The tree knots on the trunk of the great banyan tree widened their eyes slightly, and the four corpses strung on the aerial roots all turned to look at Lin An, roaring angrily.

“I am now trapped inside a tree and cannot move; not one of my four avatars can be activated!”

“Damn the Antler Witch Hunter Knights, I was almost successful, I was damn close to refining this great banyan tree Stone Treasure into my Furnace Core!!!”

“I’m so angry, back then I was Lu Tingyu’s lackey, and finally found the chance, as his most loyal subordinate, to have him entrust the research materials to me in his most perilous moment.”

“And yet Mr. Cao and Mr. Zhang rushed back from out of town so quickly, giving Lu Tingyu’s Furnace Core to his playboy son.”

“I had no choice but to fall back and find the great banyan tree Stone Treasure that Lu Tingyu had secretly prepared for himself, and using it, I cultivated using the ‘Self-Sufficient Furnace Improvement Plan’ from Lu Tingyu’s research materials.”

“I even had to split off a stupid version of myself, to keep it continuing to serve as a dog for that playboy son of Lu Tingyu and Chen Xinmi’s terrifying niece!”

“It’s really laughable, Chen Xinmi actually had my avatar come into my organization as an undercover agent?”

“Looking at my avatar is like seeing the most despicable version of myself, disgusting, truly damn disgusting!”

“Just looking is revolting!”

“I had no choice but to plant some memories in him, to make his appearance within the Male Witch Organization seem logical.”

Lin An was shocked!

Kapok tree…

Was actually Mr. Liu?

Oh, that’s right, this guy was the cousin of Chen Xinmi and Chen Shuyun’s father and, logically, should also possess the sorcerer bloodline.

Ha~

Lin An was amused.

“What’s so funny!” the great banyan tree raged, with the four corpses on its aerial roots howling and roaring.

“‘Little Rabbit’, don’t force me to completely give up on the great banyan tree Stone Treasure to take action!”

“My patience is limited, if you truly covet my Tree Hole Organization, if you truly covet my experimental subjects, you are dead for sure!”

“You are as good as dead!”

“I’m so furious!”

“I had such a hard time spreading Dark Witchcraft in the organization, just waiting for these people to turn into Sorcerer Zombies…”

“Ha, these fools, they’ve been using the tea camellia, papaya, pine seeds, and kapok, the four main ingredients I secretly provided, and have already entered my ritual magic.”

“By that time, haha, by that time, they will all be my Sorcerer Zombie army!”

“By that time, the Antler Witch Hunter Knights? Pfft, I don’t even care about them!”

“What I want is the entire world!”

Wow~

Mr. Liu, are you really this powerful?
