Wizard Immortality

Chapter 57: Half a Year of Seclusion丨Night Crow Trade Fair
half year later.

In the Kingdom of Thorn Flower.

A peaceful mortal town.

The flower arranging girl walked out of the shop holding an exquisite wooden flower pot.

The morning sun is warm and soft.

After placing the last pot of Loro flowers at the entrance of the shop, she dried her hands on her white apron and raised her arm to gently wipe the sweat from her forehead.

I heard the sound of a door closing from the neighbor's house next door.

She turned her head, her smile was simple and healthy, her teeth were white.

"Mr. Vick, it's rare for you to go out so early."

In the half year since leaving Death Rift.

Vic has been living in seclusion in this town.

And he moved around the town as a sojourning writer, avoiding the Wizarding War.

The person who greeted him was Hannah, the florist from the flower shop next door, a naturally enthusiastic, straightforward and simple person.

Although she had met Vic only a few times, it did not stop her from showing concern for the new neighbor who had moved in half a year ago.

Occasionally.

She would knock on Vic's door with steaming hot food.

She said, "Single men need someone to take care of them," then put down her dinner without giving me any time to refuse, and left with a smile.

The wizarding world is full of intrigue.

There is rarely such pure, selfless giving.

Although Vic is determined in his heart, he is not ignorant of the fickleness of human nature.

Dawn.

Grant, who had been silent for a long time, sent a message that one month later, the Night Crow Trade Fair in Iron Rock City, the Principality Alliance region, was held as scheduled.

Leave this time.

Vic won't be coming back.

Faced with the warm greeting from the country girl, Vic stopped at the door of the flower shop.

There was silence for a while.

He took out an apprentice-level alchemy notebook he had written in his early years, handed it to the flower-arranging girl, and said, "I'm going out for something and may not come back.

I left the landlord’s money on the table.

This manuscript is my parting gift to you.

Don’t refuse.”

Vic seldom goes out, and from the perspective of the girl who interrupted, he always has a mysterious and hazy temperament, which makes people curious.

Hannah took the notebook with both hands. The cover was old and the pages were completely wrapped inside.

It seemed like her brain was short-circuited. She was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized what was happening and asked in surprise, "Mr. Vic, are you leaving now?!
Please wait a moment."

After saying that, he threw down his notes, casually wiped his hands over his body, and trotted into the flower shop.

If you were a wizard, you would be able to tell at a glance that the alchemy notes given by Vic were of great value.

Sell to the trading market.

Worth no less than one hundred soul stones.

But this simple country girl cares more about the friendship of the gift than the note itself.

Not long after.

She took out a hastily arranged bouquet of white river flowers, handed it to Vic with both hands, and smiled, “You left so suddenly, and I didn’t make any preparations.

This bouquet of white river flowers symbolizes the arrival of a better life.

I hope your life here will be smooth sailing, Mr. Vic."

Vic took the bouquet and said calmly, "Thank you for your good wishes. Goodbye."

In Hannah's sight, Vic's figure gradually disappeared.

She picked up the note that had been haphazardly placed on the soil of the flower pot.

Open and check.

The characters inside are weird and I can’t recognize them at all. I don’t know which country they are from.

But because it was a gift from Vic.

She still accepted it carefully.

When you are ready to take it home, find a bag to put it in to avoid dust. Maybe putting it in the closet is a good idea.

In the eyes of a wizard.

The energy pulses of words, the carrier of knowledge, flow endlessly.

But in the eyes of mortals without wizard talent, these words do not seem abnormal at all. Instead, they are strange and look like incomprehensible scribbles.

A month later.

Principality Union Region.

Iron Rock City.

The Bell family's residence, where Vic once received offerings, was three hundred kilometers outside the city.

Time passes.

Of the three great wizarding families that once ruled the Principality Alliance, only two remain.

but.

None of this has anything to do with him.

Late at night, Vic, wearing a loose black wizard robe and a pure black mask, contacted Grant through his spell doll.

Agree to meet outside the city.

A few hours later.

Grant, also dressed in a black robe, appeared outside the city gate.

The two hadn't seen each other for three years.

Each situation is different.

Compared to when he was in college, Glatt looked much more haggard and had hidden injuries, mostly caused by fighting with other wizards.

However, his strength improved rapidly.

The intensity of the spiritual magnetic field has shown signs of reaching a critical value.

Look.

After leaving college, he had good luck.

After meeting.

Grant seemed very enthusiastic.

"Destiny, I have invited you more than ten times to no avail, and this time you finally came."

The wizard is thoughtful.

Although the two are old acquaintances and were classmates at the Black Tower Academy.

But Grant showed no signs of abnormality.

He called Vic by a code name, and kept a distance in his words and actions so that others would not notice any clues.

The Night Crow Society has been operating for many years without ever going bankrupt.

Grant must have something special.

Vic said in a cold voice, "If I need anything, I will naturally come to you. Lead the way."

The society is a secret organization for resource exchange.

There is no friendship between members and organizers, and participation or not depends entirely on need, which is reasonable.

Grant nodded slightly and said, "Please follow me."

Compared to when the society was first established, it was a makeshift team and everything was kept simple.

these years.

Grant invested money to build fixed gathering places in various areas of the Death Rift and hired wizard apprentices to be stationed there permanently.

Because the Night Raven Society is a secret organization.

So Grant formed an additional resource trading organization, the Eternal Chamber of Commerce, as a shell to cover up the existence of the Night Raven Society.

This Night Crow Trade Fair.

The location is the Tieyan City branch of the Eternal Chamber of Commerce.

On the surface, it was a celebration party for the Eternal Chamber of Commerce's eighth anniversary in the Principality Alliance region, but in reality the focus was on the Night Raven Trade Fair, which was the foundation of Grant's foothold in the wizard world.

There is a strong man in charge.

And the interests are closely related to it.

His chamber of commerce can continue to operate.

Otherwise, no matter how big it grows, it will only be a wedding dress for others.

On the road.

Grant Simple and Vic recounted the development of the Chamber of Commerce.

And speak up.

As a member of the Night Crow Society, he enjoys a 0.5% equity dividend of the Chamber of Commerce.

These shares are treated as dry shares.

It cost Vic nothing.

If he has the intention to cooperate deeply with the Chamber of Commerce, his shares can be increased.

The strong men of the Night Crow Society have the support of the Eternal Chamber of Commerce, so purchasing materials is not only convenient but also cheap, which is a win-win situation.

When the Chamber of Commerce encounters difficulties, it also needs a strong person to step forward and calm things down.

this process.

Both parties get what they want, and there is no question of one asking for anything from the other.

Vic thought about it for a while and politely declined.

Although joining the Chamber of Commerce can earn him a considerable dividend every year, it will also impose restrictions. If the Chamber of Commerce is in trouble, he cannot just sit back and watch.

Vic embarked on the path of becoming a wizard with a clear purpose.

Don't get too involved in these things.

When he refused, Grant was visibly disappointed.

Regardless of Vic's strength, with a master of alchemy in charge, the Chamber of Commerce will surely achieve tremendous development.

Unfortunately, everyone has different aspirations.

He can't force it.

A few pleasantries.

The brightly lit luxurious manor not far away was the venue for the Eternal Chamber of Commerce's celebration banquet.

Under the cover of two wizard apprentices.

Vic followed Grant into the manor through the secret door, through the cellar, and straight into the secret place underground.
