Arcane Lord

"Actually, two years ago, I wanted to go to the Tower of Time to apologize to Lord Shado, but it turned out that that time happened to be the most lively time to discuss this matter in the Pure White Tower!

"Huy, you were brought back to the Pure White Tower by Archmage Galvani just this year. You may not know much about what happened two years ago, but Vinak and you should be very clear. At that time, many people Wait to see my joke.

"At that time, I didn't want others to see my joke, so I just delayed the three-year contract. According to the spirit of the contract, I broke the contract!"

Having said this, Kim took a deep breath again, "Actually, when I heard about Lord Shado's deeds in the green field from Butler and Todd, I wanted to apologize to Lord Shado and terminate the agreement. Then It's not even three years yet.

"But my ridiculous self-esteem prevented me from really making up my mind. It wasn't until later that you all know that Mr. Xia Duo went from Master Xia Duo, who could look directly at him as an equal, to the great arcanist and councilor who could only look up to him. I missed it. Too much."

"Kim, actually you don't need to torture yourself like this. Lord Shado is indeed a unique genius in the history of Netheril. There is no need for us to compare with him. Just calm down and everything will be over."

Perhaps realizing that this time might really be the perfect opportunity for Kim to get over the hurdle in her heart, Winaker, as a friend, finally couldn't help but persuade her.

In fact, he had many opportunities to persuade her before, but he was afraid of hurting Kim's self-esteem, so he didn't dare to speak. Now that Kim chose to take the initiative, he naturally had to help.

After hearing his friend's persuasion, Kim smiled mockingly, "I actually understand all these principles, but I was too proud in the past. Only after I have deepened in the field of magic over the years have I truly seen myself clearly.

"You are right. Lord Xia Duo is like the stars in the sky to us. We are just ordinary people in the world. Losing to him is not only not a shameful thing, but a glorious deed worth talking about.

"There is a proverb among the elves that says, 'A clown cannot become a king, but a king cannot do without a clown as a foil.' Perhaps in the future I can leave a strong mark in the history of Netheril with the 'three-year agreement' Where's the pen!

“It’s actually not bad to think about it this way!”

…

Winaker discovered that Kim wanted to get rid of the shadow of the past, but he never expected that Kim's transformation would be so complete. However, following Kim's thoughts and thinking deeply, he found that he somehow envied Kim.

He had gone further than Kim in that arcane competition, and in the end he lost to Xia Duo, so he had to compete with Butler for third place, but he still lost.

With this loss, he lost a Blazer title. Although he is now confident that he will become a Blazer in the future, why not do it one day earlier?

Butler and Todd did not have the strength to open up territory, but they received the support of the Pure White Tower. Later, they participated in the Green Field War and fought side by side with Lord Shado. This is another story worth talking about and worth remembering. experience.

It is also said that the authority within the pure white tower has been improved. It can be said that the game Butler defeated him was really a fate-changing game.

Thinking of this, Vinak couldn't help but feel extremely regretful. If he could go back to the past, he would definitely use all his strength!

The loss to Lord Xia Duo was too sudden. No one could have imagined that Lord Xia Duo would be able to cast an equivalent 2 level spell in a spell duel limited to 1 level.

But Butler is very familiar with him. As long as he is serious, he has a chance to win against him.

The more Vinak thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Time has deceived me! Alas!"

"I just figured it out, why are you sighing again?" Kim glared at Winaker with dissatisfaction, her expression a little confused.

"I thought about the Savile Arcana Competition. If I had been more serious and defeated Butler in the last game, then I would be a pioneer now. Being able to fight side by side with Lord Shado would be something worth saying. Ah! Unlike now, I can only be reduced to the background of legendary stories, wuwuwu——"

Winaker's slightly exaggerated performance immediately made the others laugh, and even Kim's lips slightly raised. Speaking of which, Winaker was even worse than him. At least a few years later, the people of Nese could still benefit from the "three-year agreement." And remember his name.

And this guy Vinack is only one step away from being a supporting role in the legendary story, but he just missed it, and then he can only be reduced to an unknown background.

…

After the joke, Kim revealed his real plan, "I plan to go to the South when the White Tower of the Melting Snow Moon is on vacation. In addition to settling the 'three-year agreement' when I was young and frivolous in the past, I also want to Take a tour in Daxia. ”

After speaking, Kim cast an inviting look at Winaker. Winaker's heart moved and he asked somewhat mysteriously: "Have you heard that rumor too?"

"What rumors?" It was Hu Yi, the curious baby again.

"It's the rumor that all the 16-year-old citizens in Lord Xia Duo's territory have been admitted to the Tower of Time to teach magic." Kim explained that this is actually not a secret for a long time, but the rumors are far more than that. The real rumors are actually yes--

"I know a high-level mage who came out of the Pure White Tower. He was recruited by the Tower of Time last year. When I contacted him not long ago, he mentioned that any apprentice can almost advance as long as he enters the Tower of Time. The possibility of an arcanist!"

"Any apprentice can advance to Arcanist? And all sixteen-year-old citizens are recruited as apprentices? This -" Hu Yi, who heard the news for the first time, suddenly opened his mouth.

For him, who had just become an official mage, reaching a high level was a goal that couldn't be further away, let alone becoming an advanced arcanist.

He once heard someone say that none of the ten high-level mages in the Pure White Tower may be able to successfully advance to the arcanist level. If the proportion of high-level achievements is also included, then the possibility of a new apprentice eventually becoming an arcanist is very low. Lower.

"I have also heard that the Tower of Time does not arrange mundane tasks for its apprentices. They spend almost 18 hours studying 24 hours a day, and there are dedicated teachers to guide them. This may indeed increase their chances of becoming an arcanist. , but I don’t believe that almost all of them can be advanced!”

Vinak is no longer a child who has just come into contact with magic. He is very aware of the depth of magic. If you don't understand some problems, you just don't understand them. Even if you teach him, it will be useless. It's not like he has never seen someone stupider than him in the Pure White Tower. people.

For that kind of people, how much resources and energy must be spent to enable them to achieve the same achievements as others!

Even the son of a high-priced mage may not get such treatment, but almost every young man of school age in Daxia Territory can get it. How is this possible!

Kim was also a little hesitant, so he just used "rumor", but he was really planning to go to the Snow Moon to see it with his own eyes. If it was true, then he would definitely try every means to get there. Tower for further study.
