Wizard Immortality

Chapter 33 Sigs' Letter丨Alchemist Vic
Vic owed Luke a favor.

Never thought.

Haven't seen you for four years.

That warm, generous, sociable, tall and handsome freedom knight has turned into dust.

It's a pity.

Aaron responded, “Eric and Luke were good friends, and they were both free knights in the academy, but he didn’t live long after he betrayed Luke and stole the wizard’s codex.

Last year he encountered a strange creature while out and died."

The wizarding world is cruel and unforgiving.

Betrayal by close friends is common.

Vic wasn't surprised.

Now that the enemy who killed Luke is dead, the debt is still due.

If he could find out any news about Luke's family in the future, he would pay them some money to repay the favor.

If he can't find out, he won't force it.

The lives of mortals are worthless. After so many years, it is still unknown whether Luke's family is still alive.

Subsequently.

Aaron picked up the ring on the table, examined it carefully, and praised, "This is a high-quality mental force field defense ring, and it's worth a lot of money.

Are you really going to give it to me?"

Vic looked calm and said, "You helped me three times when I was in trouble. A ring is not worth mentioning."

Although Vic said so.

But Aaron knew that an alchemical ring of this quality could be sold for a high price of fifty soul stones in the trading market of Black Tower Academy.

And it has a price but no market.

Such an expensive gift at once.

Aaron couldn't help but look at Vic again and said teasingly, "So, you have been doing well outside these years? And the strength of your spiritual magnetic field is now
When did you become a wizard's apprentice?"

Before returning to the academy, Vic had already prepared his speech.

He said methodically, "When I was away, I met an alchemist who traveled the world. I served that master for more than three years and gained a lot."

Aaron smiled, raised his glass, and congratulated, "Congratulations."

Vic nodded slightly.

Then the two chatted for a while.

When talking about Sigs Murray, Aaron took out an opened letter and said in a serious tone, "Originally I didn't want to tell you this.

Now that you have been promoted to a wizard apprentice, I will not be shy about it.

A year ago, Sigs sent me a letter inviting me to go back. According to her, a foreign wizard family had forcibly occupied the Barony of Moray.

Killed all the descendants of the Baron family."

Vic understood what Aaron meant.

A mortal with the strength of a knight is not qualified to participate in the war between wizards.

Tell him about it now.

In addition, the two of them, like Sigs, are from the same hometown and can help each other.

Sigs Murray, who has not returned to the academy for six years, is said to have joined a wizarding organization that is far more powerful than the Black Tower Academy.

And he has a teacher-student relationship with a second-level wizard.

His background is so profound that it goes far beyond that of ordinary people.

Being able to get closer to her has only advantages and no disadvantages.

Sigs wrote this letter to Aaron, probably asking for help.

Vic thought for a moment, and then decided that this was a profitable matter. He asked, "Did the letter mention a specific time?"

"In the year 741, on the day of the rain eclipse."

Rain erosion is a natural solar term phenomenon in the Death Rift Valley area.

Usually around early spring.

Vic said, "I will go with you then."

Aaron nodded slightly.

Chatting for a while.

Vic leaves the shop.

He planned to go to the academy's teaching department first, explain the situation, hand in a prepared alchemist's notebook, remove his name from the death list, and then obtain the alchemist's identity certification.

Finally Brody.

This shows his identity as an alchemist and his decision to leave the Atelier and become independent.

The teaching office is a Gothic building with a spire tower.

It covers a huge area.

In charge of all matters in the academy. A level one wizard, Essos, was a member of the five-member council and also served as the director of the teaching department.

Great power.

The clerk who received Vic was an elderly wizard apprentice.

Be warm and welcoming to others.

Answer all questions.

After Vic explained the situation, the other party simply crossed out his name from the death list and re-listed him as a wizard in the academy.

Especially after learning that Vic was an alchemist, his attitude became even more earnest.

but.

The wizard is very scheming.

Vic could tell at a glance that the wizard apprentice who received him was mean and his every word and action was forced enthusiasm.

Become like this.

Mostly it was to cater to the preferences of the Director of Education, Athos.

after all.

The first time he met Athos, the first-level wizard left him with a deep impression of being decisive and efficient in doing things.

When working in the teaching department, if you procrastinate and play tricks, your efficiency will be reduced.

It will definitely bring punishment from Aessos.

After resolving his identity issue, Vic returns to Brody's alchemy workshop.

Haven't seen you for four years.

The layout of the workshop is no different from when he did it.

One of the two students who were cleaning the first floor disappeared and was replaced by a new one.

The other person has entered young adulthood, with a numb expression and empty eyes, no longer the cool and aloof demeanor he once had.

The plump woman who had received Vic before was now leaning back in her chair, resting with her eyes closed.

Brody had his back to the door, smelting metal in the lab.

High temperatures and slightly toxic smoke filled the air.

He heard someone walk into the store, and without turning around, he said in a rude manner, "The workshop is closed today. If you have anything to do, please make an appointment with the store assistant."

Compared to the time at the Secret Fire Silver Mine, Brody's originally sparse hair was gone, and he was completely bald. He also gained a lot of weight.

Even if he is a senior, the life span of an apprentice is still limited.

The four years have left deep marks of time on the already old Brody, and he looks obviously old.

Vic's attitude was very respectful.

Back then, he took away all of Brody's collections in the workshop, and invisibly owed the other party a favor.

Moreover, Brody has a teacher-student relationship with the first-level wizard.

Based on emotion and reason.

Maintaining a good relationship with the other party will do more good than harm.

"Lord Brody, it's me."

I heard some familiar voices at the door.

Brody and two busy students stopped what they were doing.

The bald old apprentice turned around. When he saw Vic, he was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "Didn't you die outside?"

Vic responded, "Thanks to you, the knowledge I learned in the workshop has been of great help to me."

Subsequently.

Vic repeated his prepared speech, which was roughly a story about how he was in danger when he was out, and an alchemist came to his rescue. Seeing that Vic knew some alchemy, the alchemist kept him by his side to serve him.

Brody looked doubtful.

He was well aware of Vic's talent. It was almost impossible for him to be promoted to a wizard apprentice and obtain the title of apprentice alchemist in such a short time.

But the other party's story was perfect and there was nothing unusual about it.

The only possibility is that the nameless alchemist has strength and background far beyond imagination.

That's why it was possible to train a young man with mediocre talent into an apprentice-level alchemist in four years.

After Vic revealed his identity as an alchemist.

The plump woman woke up with a look of shock.

She opened her mouth slightly and looked at Vic in great shock, whose appearance had not changed much from that of the past.

The mediocre boy whom she once looked down upon has now grown into an alchemist whom she cannot reach!
Fortunately, having worked in the workshop for many years, she would not easily express her contempt even if she felt it in her heart, so as to avoid bringing disaster upon herself.

Two other students.

The young man's eyes were full of awe and curiosity.

The student who had no contact with Vic and was always in aloof attitude, and was still washing bottles, turned pale, as if struck by lightning, his left hand trembled, and the test tube in his hand almost fell to the ground.
