章 172: The Hightower Motives

"Father, calm down! It's not what you think! Did you know that Magitek is the greatest artificer within the Curtained World? And he's the only one who knows how to create magical Artifacts with the Atlantean Artificing Method!" Anastasia rushed to explain, her words pouring out in a flurry.

"Moreover, he's not a rogue mage anymore. He used to be, but now he's just an associate like many other mages. He even had some dealings with Grand Councilor Envy and her Magic Harmony Faction. There's so much you don't know about him!" she continued, her excitement palpable.
