End of the Sky (Multiverse's End)

"David, what are you talking about?"

Magicians attach great importance to the family of masters, and David doesn't care about recognizing Russell as a teacher, which makes Balthazar very annoyed, because David has already worshiped him as a teacher.

Yes, he came first!

"Bathazar, don't be angry, the disparity in strength between you and me is almost obvious at a glance."

Russell spoke out and acted as a peacemaker: "David made this choice, which shows that he is a self-motivated child. As his teacher, you should be happy for him."

The effect was mediocre, and Balthazar became even angrier.

"The inheritance of the mage is very important, this is the rule, you can't..."

"Okay, okay, let me tell you the truth!"

Russell took the initiative to take a step back: "It's just a teacher's title. I don't care at all. David can call him whatever he wants. After all, it's not unusual for him to ask me to be his teacher!"

Balthazar: "..."

So angry!

Russell gave David a look, and patted the sullen Balthazar: "Actually, you don't need to be angry, young people, you desire more than strength... Cough cough, love, I mean love."

"Yes, it's love."

David nodded desperately at the side. In his opinion, learning magic is the same as doing scientific research. If he is accompanied by a girl, he will only study the theory of quantum gravity to prove the origin of the big bang if he is brain-dead.

"Master Russell, even if you don't care, rules are rules. I can't let David act like this. It's very disrespectful to you."

Balthazar struggled for a moment, then confessed: "Besides, you and Supreme Merlin are mages outside the norm. David doesn't have your talent, and you can't learn it even if you teach him."

"Bathazar, I think I can!"

David, who longs for love, is full of energy and dares to challenge the impossible.

"Very well David, it's important to continue to be positive about your studies."

"Then Russell... Mage, when do we start learning?"

"You can do it now, take your ID and go to the shooting club to sign up, the staff will..."

"Wait, Master Russell, please stop for a moment."

David blinked and blinked: "What do you mean by shooting club, is your magic guild?"

"No, it's just a gathering place for ordinary firearms enthusiasts, spend money to apply for a membership card, and then pile up bullets to become a sharpshooter."

Russell said earnestly: "This is how I practiced my marksmanship. Although the process is hard, as long as you persevere, you will gain growth and happiness in your continuous progress. Friendly reminder, if you are a beginner, it is best to start with a pistol first."

"Master Russell, is this your profound magic?"

Balthazar smiled. Forgive his poor eyesight. It turns out that the streets are full of magicians.

"Of course, the move that can defeat a 777-level magician, isn't it a profound magic?"

"..."

Balthazar cursed and quit the chat group.

"Master Russell, even if I learn how to shoot a gun, there is no guarantee that Betty will fall in love with me!"

David's eyes widened. He wanted cool and gorgeous special effects magic, not popular guns and weapons. Guns are very powerful, but they can't make him stand out from the crowd.

Grab the attention of girls.

"David, I don't know that the Dragon Ring suits you. Anyway, I don't see any advantages in you."

Russell said earnestly: "Private Merlin and I are both born weird. You can't learn the magic that suits us. Balthazar's mainstream magic needs time to practice. Now that there are powerful enemies around, your life is in danger at any time. Learning guns and weapons is definitely a must. It is more reliable than the ion cannon that was not effective at that time."

After saying this, Russell left behind his phone number, turned and left without turning his head, leaving the stunned Balthazar and David in place.

"Bathazar, do you think it is necessary for me to learn firearms?"

"I think you need to see a doctor."

Balthazar left a sentence angrily, and asked David to continue practicing the ion cannon, so that he could save his life in a critical moment.

He sat quietly on the spot for a while, and then went out after a while, intending to go to the weapons store to buy a revolver for self-defense.

Regardless of whether Russell is fooling people or not, the times have indeed changed. Before his thinking was a bit narrow, it is reasonable to keep pace with the times.

"Damn it, where's the nearest shooting club?"

...

After leaving David's laboratory, Russell found a nearby coffee shop that was convenient for observation, and found that Balthazar hurried into the weapon shop, and there was an extra registration form in his hand after going out.

Russell shook his head slightly, except for the Supreme Merlin, other mages in this world, even the top-notch Balthazar, are vulnerable to a single blow in his eyes.

Ideas are too backward!

Balthazar thought of learning firearms to increase his hole cards, but he didn't think of another possibility. If his mortal enemy Maxim used a sniper rifle to sneak attack, wouldn't it be able to kill him in one shot.

In modern society, magicians are in an embarrassing situation. If they do not have the power to change the world, it is best to be changed by the world honestly.

"By the way, why doesn't Harry Potter use a gun?"

Russell complained, and called Pierre, telling him to finish the report even if he worked overtime today.

Pierre vomited bitterly, saying that he also had a case in his hand, and the report was only this time, and it would not be an example.

Russell nodded happily, and there would never be a second time. After hanging up the phone, he waited for any movement in the laboratory.

Regardless of the plot, just by taking on the role of the villain, Russell knows that Maxim will never let it go, and will definitely try to take away the Horcrux.

If only Bathazar was alone, he could protect the Horcrux and let Maxim return home without a feather, but with the addition of David, his fighting power would not be as good as Maxim's.

Pig teammates are just that scary.

Russell once again substituted the idea of ​​the villain. If he was Maxim, he would make a fuss from David, and there would be as many means as possible to grab the Horcrux.

"Is it cheating or kidnapping, or stealing it while Bathazar is going to the club to shoot?"

...

That night!

The panic-stricken David was picked up by Balthazar in the classic car, and the two rushed to Manhattan. I don't know what magic Balthazar used. The appearance of the antique car changed drastically, and it turned into a powerful supercar, roaring across the road.

Russell was driving a police car, hanging in the back unhurriedly, when the cell phone rang, it was David who came.

"Master Russell, it's not good."

"What's the matter, Master was captured by a monster?"

"No, Balthazar is by my side. He wasn't caught, but Betty was taken away by Maxim and asked me to exchange it with a Horcrux."

David anxiously explained that young people have big brains, thinking of Betty being young and beautiful, thinking of Maxim being imprisoned for ten years, and thinking of the hard drive that accompanied him to spend his single night, he panicked a lot.

"Don't get excited, this is a good thing, David, it's time for your hero to save the beauty."

Russell secretly thought that as expected, Maxim's kidnapping of Betty coincided with his -046, and continued: "Tell me the time and place of the transaction, and I will rush there as quickly as possible."

"Wall Street in Manhattan, the New York Stock Exchange!"

"OK, remember to give Maxim the Horcrux if he wants it, and save the hostage first." Russell hung up the phone, thinking about which vest to use, white or black.

Three seconds later, he decided to use black, and heaven didn't recognize his pass, so there was no reason to use white to help them gain reputation.

The police car was hanging far away, Russell took the time to catch a bag robber on the street and stuffed it into the back row, the supercar on the other side rushed to Wall Street at the fastest speed, Balthazar and David met Maxim at the agreed place.

Betty was there too, chained to a chair, with Maxim pointing a pistol at her forehead.

"?" x2

"Bathazar, I can tell from your surprised expression that you haven't really accepted this world yet."

Bathazar's astonished expression made Maxim very useful: "This thing is very dangerous. Just a slight pull of the trigger can take away a life, even the life of our magician."

"Maxim, I brought the Horcrux. According to the agreement, let go of that girl." Balthazar didn't want to talk nonsense.

"Of course, but I want to ensure my own safety first, and throw all the rings on your hand over."

"You do it!"

Balthazar shrugged. Wearing the ring would at most kill Betty. If he took off the ring, Betty, David and himself would all die. This account is not difficult to calculate.

"Well, I also know that's impossible."

Maxim was not surprised, pointing to the door next to Balthazar: "There are a few small surprises prepared for you in the room, go in and have a rest, I want to deal with the heir of Supreme Merlin alone."

"You do it!"

Balthazar was still crisp.

David next to him panicked, and whispered BB: "Balthazar, I know you're delaying time, but this is too risky, we can't joke about Betty's life."

"No, I didn't delay. Compared with the life of a girl and the whole world, I can only choose the latter."

"Balthazar, are you serious?"

Before David could speak, Maxim took a gun to Betty's head, and the latter let out a choking sound very cooperatively.

"Damn, why am I such a nice guy?"

Bathazar let out annoyance, kicked open the door next to him, and strode into the magic trap.

Without Balthazar, David's IQ was no match for Maxim at all. The two exchanged hostages. David got his beloved sister, and Maxim got the long-awaited Horcrux.

"Good luck, kid." Maxim stroked the Horcrux, showing a meaningful smile.

Puchi!

David felt severe pain in his abdomen and lowered his head stiffly. In his sight was Betty holding a dagger with an expressionless face.

He had difficulty breathing, blood with froth emerged from the corner of his mouth, and he fell to the ground with his head tilted.

"Blind love and trust..."

Maxim shook his head and stepped forward, took off the dragon ring, confirmed that it was genuine, and walked away.

At this time, the door next to him was pushed open, Balthazar sighed, raised his hand to help Betty recover, and then cast magic to heal David's injury.

"Bathazar, have you been here all this time?"

David embraced the fainted Betty, feeling lingering fear of dying.

"Some small traps still won't bother me, so let me take this opportunity to let you experience the battle between magicians. A single negligence will ruin your life."

"But the Horcrux was taken away by Maxim. Is this also your plan?"

David was puzzled, he promised to protect the world!

"Mogani is sealed in the center of the horcrux. The sealed magic weapon created by Supreme Merlin himself is not so easy to open. I marked the horcrux, and I have enough time to get it back."

Balthazar calmly explained that everything was within his plan, and Maxim, no matter his fighting spirit or courage, was no match for him.

Buzz buzz! !

High in the sky, a flame vortex appeared out of thin air, and the huge fiery red pentagram filled with an evil and oppressive ominous atmosphere.

David looked out the window dumbfounded: "Bathazar, is this also in your plan?"

"..."
