Age of Adepts

When the two wizards, Fogan and Korgan, were whispering together, a young wizard standing beside them was silently lost in thought.

It seemed that the name repeatedly mentioned in the words of the two wizards brought back some memories. The young wizard stood there in a daze, with a face of confusion and annoyance, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Am...Am..." Wizard Furgen whispered twice before waking up the young wizard.

"Oh, Lord Furgen, are you calling me? I was a little absorbed in thinking about things just now..." The young wizard Amn forced a smile, and hurriedly bowed to the second-level wizard Furgen.

"It's nothing, I just want to remind you. I heard that your partner Meryl, who was promoted together, has also arrived in Keslinburg. We may run into them there. You'd better be mentally prepared. Damn it, even this little girl has advanced to the second rank. What's wrong with this world..."

Amn's body trembled when she heard the words, and she quickly bowed her head in response.

The gazes of Furgen and Wizard Korgan flicked on him, and then moved elsewhere, but there was a trace of sympathy and vigilance in the depths of their brows and eyes.

In terms of identities, this Amn is the senior brother of the very popular fire dragon witch Meryl, and both of them were wizard apprentices that Greem personally brought up, but there is a huge difference in the development trajectory of the two. .

Meryl, just an ordinary female apprentice with mediocre talent, can be said to be a fluke to be able to advance to the first level, and it has exhausted all the luck in her entire life. In contrast, Amn, who is above average in talent, has a much higher development potential than Meryl after she advances to the first level.

With Meryl's head-shattering talent as a wizard, it would be considered a good development if she survived until she died and reached the intermediate level. The development potential of the wizards of Amn is estimated to be at the first level. If you are lucky, you will be able to reach the peak of the first level as soon as possible, and you will have a chance to hit the second level with great luck.

So, from every aspect, Amn's development should be better than Meryl's!

It's a pity that the trajectory of life never develops as smoothly as I expected.

Meryl was able to advance to the first level, so she was naturally grateful to her mentor, so she always maintained it, maintained it everywhere, and showed her loyalty. Even if Greem and the upper echelons of the Sarubo family had a grudge at that time, she chose to side with her mentor without hesitation.

And Amn... chose another path.

Under the persuasion and seduction of Wizard Furgen, Amn was obviously not optimistic about Greem's separation from the Sarupo family, so he was willing to be a traitor and an undercover agent. It was precisely because of his betrayal that information inside the Throne of Flame continuously flowed into the hands of Wizard Fulgan.

And the Throne of Flame suffered the first crisis of destruction, when the third-order vampires led a large number of family members to attack.

Given the circumstances at the time, Greem's family had little chance of being spared.

And Amu took advantage of that crisis to formally leave Greem's camp, returned to the embrace of the Sarubo family, and was rewarded by Wizard Furgen as his disciple.

However, what happened next was clearly beyond everyone's expectations.

Not only did Greem's line not be destroyed, but they rose strongly with the help of crisis after crisis.

Slaughtering the vampire family, repelling the coalition forces of the five wizard families, and killing the third-order wizard Yurga in a fair duel... Recently, the Crimson family also crazily defeated the attack of the Fabres family, one of the five super families in the Sandalinn. His former teacher even showed his might and beat the fourth-level body-training wizard Declan away.

This series of changes is simply dazzling, but thrilling!

Especially when Amu heard that in order to reward Meryl for her dedication and hard work, Greem actually 'wasted' the extremely precious fire dragon blood on her.

To be honest, when she heard the news, Amn's heart was torn!

He locked himself in his residence, smashed and smashed all the items in the house, including the rare edition alchemy experiment table that he bought with a huge amount of resources. Crazy Amu also summoned several female apprentices she brought over, and after three days and three nights of 'foot softness', she calmed herself down again.

Of course, Amn spent a lot of resources afterwards to cover up this matter.

But since that day, his heart has been subverted.

You know, when he was an apprentice wizard, among Greem's five apprentices, he was the only one with the fire attribute. If...he had fantasized over and over again, if he was still by that Greem's side at this moment, would anyone else be able to inherit the powerful fire element talent of the legendary fire witch besides himself?

It was this unrealistic fantasy that tormented Amn deeply.

He also thinks about it day and night, almost to the point of becoming obsessed!

No way, he can't think about it...

His identity and his previous actions have long been known to family members. Therefore, even if there was a little commotion in the distant Crimson family, members of the Sarubo family would involuntarily look at him with strange expressions.

He hated that look!

He didn't need pity from others, he didn't want to see other people's expressions of gloating, and he didn't want to hear any news related to Crimson.

Unfortunately, what the Crimson family did was too earth-shattering and unimaginable!

When the Fabres family made a big move and invaded the territory of the Crimson family, and the Crimson family was beaten so helplessly that they could barely retreat to the last isolated city, all the wizards of Sarubo rushed to fight against them. Zaam's vision was excellent, and he jumped out of the terrible fire pit ahead of time.

And Amn was also lucky for a while.

However, when the legendary fire witch beat off the fourth-level wizards as soon as he showed up, and defeated the Fabres family, all the wizards of the Sarupo family fell silent, and looking at Amn was like looking at the world's largest and most stupid idiot.

During that time, Amn also lost weight.

To be honest, this time, when he heard that the legendary fire witch made another big news, that he was squeezed into the third-level powerhouse selection contest of the Sandi Tower Lynn Association, Amn's heart was extremely peaceful.

Originally, wizards Fulgan and Korgan didn't intend to take Amn with them when they rushed to Kirslinburg, but for some reason, Amn begged the teacher to bring him along.

As for the reason, in fact, even Amn herself couldn't explain it clearly.

He no longer wants to go back and evaluate the right and wrong choices made in the past.

At this time, he just wanted to see that former teacher and his former companion... As for why he watched it and what to do after seeing it, to be honest, Amn couldn't figure it out either.

…………

Five days later, the airship finally arrived in Kirslinburg.

With the dense flow of people getting off the airship, there is a beautiful huge square in front of you. The whole body is paved with bright white moonstone, shining brightly in the warm sunshine. If it is night at this time, the Moon White Stone, which has stored the light elements of the day, will emit a hazy and illusory soft light, making this place even more blurred and beautiful.

In the center of the square stands an extremely huge boulder statue. It is an old wizard with a height of 100 meters, wearing a witch robe, and a hale and hearty face. The whole body of the statue of the old wizard is carved from a huge stone, no matter the eyebrows, skin, clothing are all lifelike, and the details are handled to the top.

Once in sight, anyone will regard this huge stone statue as a living wizard, who is examining every outsider who comes to Keslinburg with incomparable incomparable eyes.

"This is Wizard Jonard, the first president of the Sandalin Association..." Wizard Furgen looked up at the statue of the wizard, and said with infinite emotion.

Of course, both Korgan and Amn who followed behind him also knew that what Wizard Fogan really felt was not the great achievements of this President Jonard, but his regret. No matter how amazing and talented this President Jonard is, he still hasn't crossed the 4th-level threshold and become a real great wizard.

Therefore, he was destined not to be immortal, and died of old age in Keslinburg after living 1173 years old.

It's just that this is Keslinburg, if the second half of the sentence is said, it means to offend the association, so Wizard Furgen can only express his emotions by admiring the statue.

"The Fire Dragon Witch... is the Fire Dragon Witch..."

Suddenly, for no reason, there was a commotion among the wizards who were slowly browsing the scenery of Keslinburg in the square, and there were low-pitched exclamations one after another.

Dragon Witch Meryl?

The three wizards Fulgen were slightly startled, and quickly turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound.

Near a stone arch on the west side of the square, two energetic young witches were standing side by side, greeting a group of wizards who had just stepped off the airship.

Over the past ten years, as the Crimson family has been silently labeled as a Tier 4 force by the outside world, more and more wizard families are willing to form an alliance with it. Especially those small and medium-sized families that lack their own strength are more willing to move closer to emerging families like the Crimson Family, hoping to use their strength to resist the coveting of surrounding forces.

Therefore, as one of the ruling wizards of the Crimson Family, the Fire Dragon Witch Meryl has to maintain close interaction with some family allies even if she goes to another region thousands of miles away.

No, today several allies of the Crimson family rushed to Keslinburg to help out, so Meryl also ran to the empty parking area to pick up the plane.

In addition to several family allies, Meryl took Emelia and smiled back to those wizards who came forward to express their friendship. Two beautiful witches with different shapes and beautiful appearances stand side by side, which can give people a refreshing aesthetic feeling.

In the past, Meryl was not considered a great beauty, she could only be called gentle and beautiful.

But now, under the nourishment of Peiran Fire Dragon's blood, her hands, feet and waist look particularly slender and long, and her pink and smooth skin is overflowing with a layer of surging energy, giving people a sense of swelling full of powerful strength.

The beauty of the world has lost its past value in the wizarding community, and only unrivaled power is the beauty recognized by the wizards!

Through the crowd, looking at the beautiful figure with a soft smile in the distance, Amn's heart was torn again...
