Kobold Wizard's Journal

Chapter 463 Fairies and Broken

Ruger raised an eyebrow, looking at the nine Gillian wizards who had appeared before him without his noticing. If you count the short-haired imposter, that makes exactly ten.

"Oh? You've come to offer your blessings? Well then, I might be able to let you stay here..."

After standing there for a long time, short-haired Gillian finally returned to normal and continued what she had been saying.

She seemed oblivious to the real Gillians around her, continuing to talk to herself, from her fantasies about the fairy kingdom to her longing for the outside world, and her inexplicable joy, sighing and talking incessantly.

"Yes, you weren't lying. I can feel your kindness and concern for me, and you seem quite happy. In that case... I'll grant you the right to stay in the city. Please come to my wedding and offer your blessings, although I don't really know what a wedding is..."

Short-haired Gillian continued talking to herself, then looked at Ruger and his group with a satisfied smile, seemingly still envisioning her plans.

Ruger looked at the wizard Zorn.

“Of course, we will obey whatever you give us, and we will do whatever you invite us to do,” Zorn said in a deep voice.

Or rather, he had already done it, Ruger thought.

He guessed that the wizard Gillian was referring to the wizards they had encountered before, and that the strongest one, the old man, had already been dealt with by the wizard Zorn.

Short-haired Gillian nodded in satisfaction upon hearing Zorn's words.

Ruger watched her smug actions, then glanced at the nine Gillian wizards standing to the side, nodding their thanks like ghosts, and felt a sense of unease.

It wasn't until the short-haired Gillian waved for them to leave the palace, which was too empty but actually crowded with people, that Ruger realized what was happening. He glanced around one last time before turning and leaving the palace with the others.

As he turned around, nine different combs could be seen flying out of the short-haired Gillian's body, like fish leaping out of a calm lake, breaking the stillness of the mirror, drifting and flying to the back of the nine Gillians' heads, and landing on their hair.

Ruger withdrew his gaze, quickened his pace, and caught up with the group.

He glanced at Valin in surprise.

Among the group, if Zorn's steps were steady, then Valin's steps were firm. She not only followed closely behind Zorn, but even walked ahead of Mahama and Ruger, without ever looking back.

It's hard to imagine what this witch apprentice is thinking. After all, she has so much to think about at this moment: her family, her own path, the constraints and liberation from fate, the farewell and gifts from her mentor and friend. But Ruger guesses that she must be thinking that Gillian will succeed, that she will definitely succeed, just like her firm steps now.

Things often take unexpected turns; it seems they really are here to attend a wedding, though of course, the wedding probably won't actually happen.

As for that strangely short-haired wizard Gillian, that's probably the true form of the Mirror Fairy; its resemblance to Gillian is just its human appearance.

"Ok?"

Zorn exclaimed in surprise.

The three young men following Zorn, each with their own thoughts, immediately tensed up. They saw him stride to the side of the street and start talking to a strange fairy. It turned out to be a fairy shaped like a door frame, chatting with its fairy friend as it opened and closed. It was as if the door that was moving back and forth was its big mouth. Zorn talked to the fairy and then took out some potions and other things. Finally, he grabbed the fairy and stuffed it into his chest hair.

Ruge's eyelids twitched, and he glanced at the surrounding goblins. Fortunately, there weren't many goblins gathered in this corner, and some of the slower ones hadn't even looked over. At the same time, Ruge noticed that the wizard Zorn had ultimately used a strange key made from a demon bone to lure and persuade the goblin that resembled a door. This third-ring wizard really did have all sorts of strange things. Perhaps this was an essential part of his path—carrying all sorts of things he could use to lure targets into becoming his familiars. Ruge figured he must have some precious treasures he kept for when he encountered the most valuable familiars, those most compatible with his path, to demonize and then stuff into his chest hair.

As Ruger watched his delighted expression, he speculated about what the door frame fairy would be transformed into and how important it would become, while simultaneously casting the Spirit Hair Nourishment spell.

The group continued walking on the streets of the royal city.

It seems that, just as the mouse said, fairies from all corners of the kingdom are flocking to the royal city to witness the king's wedding, or rather, to join in the once-in-a-century excitement in the kingdom.

The ever-shattering and destruction of the kingdom seemed to have clouded the mind of the fairy king.

Ruger didn't think that way because the guy looked stupid.

Instead, many buildings in the royal city have shown abnormalities, such as small houses of different styles crammed together, and some have even collapsed.

All signs indicate that the king's wedding will not take place as scheduled, even without the intervention of the wizard Gillian. The fairies are still playing happily and chasing each other around. Many fairies have brought out their own homemade fairy wines. You can easily become friends with any fairy you pick up and start exchanging wines or leaves or petals picked from the roadside.

The wizard Zorn had quietly broken away from the group and joined a bunch of fairies, drinking and chatting, their arms around each other.

Who knows how many strange fairies will be tricked or rescued by this wizard after this day, led to a new life, and raised into peculiar demons. The initial abduction is only the first step in transforming them into demons, just getting them tainted with a bit of demonic aura. The real change is yet to come.

"Could you two please help me protect him?"

When Valin saw the two stop and look at the wizard Zorn in the distance, she seized the opportunity and whispered.

Mahama glanced at Ruge, and they both nodded.

The fact that she said this at this moment suggests that she has made a decision to become a gem summoner with the help of the wizard Gillian.

Before proceeding, some preparations are necessary, followed by waiting.

With the help of a friendly fairy, the three of them quickly found a treehouse nearby. The two of them sat down in the outer room, leaving the innermost room for Valin to use.

After bowing to thank the two, Valin turned and walked into the house with a solemn expression.

Ruger looked around at the relatively quiet environment, which he was more than happy to have. He and Mahama sat on opposite sides in two corners of the room. While he was casting the Spirit Hair Nourishment spell, he was thinking about what to do first. There were just too many things waiting for him to do, such as those notes about the Seed of Flesh.

After a final round of selection, he decided to take out his precious black book first.

Since becoming an apprentice of the Limit and choosing the Silent Seal, he hasn't turned a new page of the Black Book in a long time. He only takes out the book when he wants to connect with the world of knowledge. He still remembers the days when he used to hug it or use it as a pillow when he slept.

Hopefully, the Black Book won't disappoint him this time either.
