Chapter 41 Mordo, you have been exiled.
Although Qin Wuying was in a very cheerful mood, the others in Kamar-Taj were not necessarily in the same mood.
Unaware of the inside story, they still believed that Qin Wuying was someone who had secretly learned forbidden techniques.
That means Qin Wuying and Casillas are on the same side.
So as soon as he arrived, several gatekeeper mages stopped Qin Wuying in place.
In their view, Qin Wuying's return to Kamar-Taj this time might be similar to that of Kaecilius—
They have some ulterior motive.
However, Qin Wuying wouldn't bother with them now.
"I don't want to hurt you, please inform the Venerable One."
As long as you see the Ancient One, everything will naturally fall into place.
"The Venerable One is not seeing anyone now."
The other party showed no respect and flatly rejected Qin Wuying's request.
Given Kaecilius's example, the mages worried that Qin Wuying might harm the Ancient One.
After all, anyone who has learned forbidden techniques is exceptionally strong.
"Quickly inform the King and Mordo that the man surnamed Qin has returned."
One of the guardian mages urged his companions to run while simultaneously assuming a fighting stance.
The others also opened their magic arrays, looking serious.
"Okay, okay, don't be nervous, I don't want to get entangled with you guys."
Qin Wuying's body slowly sank down, eventually disappearing completely from the ground.
The monks looked at each other in disbelief, as if they had never seen such a skill before.
After a period of stealth, Qin Wuying simply emerged from the place where the Supreme Venerable usually worked.
"It's still so dark and gloomy, is it even possible to read the words on the book?"
Looking around at the dimly lit environment, Qin Wuying couldn't help but sigh.
Perhaps His Holiness's eyes are like light bulbs, capable of emitting their own light?
Anyway, he can't see anything.
Thinking this, Qin Wuying propped her elbows on the table beside her.
"Hey! Are you blind?"
Administrator Wang's voice interrupted Qin Wuying's thoughts.
Only then did Qin Wuying notice that his elbow was pressing down on the pages of the book.
There was a large person sitting in front of the table.
"If you're here to see the Ancient One, you'll probably leave empty-handed."
Wang took off his Bluetooth earphones and looked up at Qin Wuying.
For some reason, Qin Wuying always felt that using modern technology in Kamar-Taj would seem particularly magical.
"Why? Is she away on a business trip?"
Qin Wuying casually picked up a book from the table and looked at it.
"No, she has entered a state of hibernation, the reason for which is unknown."
Wang stood up and whispered something mysteriously to Qin Wuying.
The unspoken implication of this method of communication is that most people are still unaware of this news.
It's best not to reveal this information.
At the same time, Qin Wuying thought of another very important key issue—
Who is in charge of Kamar-Taj now?
Stephen Strange is too young and doesn't have enough experience.
The only remaining candidates are Wang and Mordo.
If Modu is elected, it will be extremely disadvantageous for Qin Wuying.
That guy has always disliked me. How can I possibly succeed if he gains power?
However, what Wang said next surprised Qin Wuying.
"The Ancient One said that once you return from your mission, you will be her second-in-command."
"The Supreme One's right-hand man...?"
That means he is now the second-in-command of the entire Kamar-Taj.
And according to Wang, he should know about his mission to Stark Industries.
With the king as his witness, his position in Kamar-Taj should be guaranteed.
Of course, we also have to prevent that guy from coming to stop us.
Soon, the king gathered together almost all the high-ranking mages.
Then he explained the whole story to everyone.
The vast majority of people accepted Qin Wuying and Wang's version of events.
Except for Mordo.
Of course, except for Mordo.
As one of the few people who knew about the Ancient One's hibernation, he was convinced of his own noble status.
Even the most powerful competitor to the Supreme Being.
However, he was completely unaware of Qin Wuying's secret mission.
And now that this young man has returned, he wants to take away the position that originally belonged to him.
Mordo must not allow this to happen.
He immediately pulled out his usual weapon: a magic steel whip.
"Mordo, are you going to disobey the Ancient One's orders?"
Wang frowned and reprimanded him.
"Even the Ancient One is in hibernation; who knows if this is just a lie made up by that Qin guy!"
These words shocked everyone present.
"The Venerable One has entered a state of hibernation? When did this happen?!"
"What should we do? Without the protection of the Supreme Being, we are vulnerable to invasion at any moment!"
Wang rubbed his forehead in pain.
Why is Modu so stubborn?
If he were more calm and mature, perhaps the Ancient One would have truly favored him.
Unfortunately not.
Now things are getting out of hand again.
What troubled the king the most was that Mordo was also quite experienced, and he couldn't control him.
However, Qin Wuying had no such concerns.
"Alright, everyone calm down. I will handle this matter properly."
Qin Wuying waved his hands, trying to calm the emotions of the mages.
"Take this!"
Modu didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and charged straight at him.
The steel whip, brimming with magical energy, slammed down with all its might.
Unlike the intensity of previous training sessions, this time it was enough to kill someone instantly.
Mordo was full of confidence; he only needed one move to defeat his opponent.
but--
The steel whip lashed down Qin Wuying's head and down to the ground beneath his feet.
The metal struck the ground, producing a crisp sound.
Qin Wuying himself stood there unharmed, with a smile on his face.
"Wh-what...?"
Mordo was clearly taken aback by this sudden turn of events.
Because he used too much force and missed the target, he fell forward and landed face-first in the mud.
"Admit it, Mordo, you're just jealous."
"I did this for Kamar-Taj and for world peace!"
Undeterred, Mo Du struggled to his feet and frantically brandished his weapon at Qin Wuying.
Unsurprisingly, all of these attacks were futile.
"What a noble excuse," Qin Wuying said coldly, looking at Mo Du.
"You think that people like Strange and me would compete with you for the position of Sorcerer Supreme?"
"You know absolutely nothing! People like you are a threat to the world!"
Modu's dark thoughts were exposed, and he became furious.
Seeing Mordo's reaction, the other mages, who didn't particularly like him to begin with, began to whisper among themselves.
Seeing that the time was right, Qin Wuying teleported to Mo Du's side and kicked him away.
You, who are villains in most universes, actually portray yourself as a champion of justice.
"Ahem. Now, in the name of the Supreme Being's deputy—"
Qin Wuying cleared his throat and announced, word by word:
"Modu, you have been banished from Kamar-Taj."
