Clinging to the Witcher world to become a god of martial arts
Chapter 136: Conversation and Parting
"Lorne, what exactly has happened these past few days? How did you suddenly become a full-fledged wizard, and why did you return to Wall Manor?"
Theodore lay flat on the wooden bed, his mind filled with questions. It had only been a week, but for Lorne it felt like a year.
"It's a long story," Lorne explained patiently.
From leaving the group and going alone to the Wizard's Tower to answer the call, to going to Wall Manor, completing the call, and returning to Black Sun Tower...
The story omits the dangerous situations involving Aislin, the Bronze Pillar, and the Fallen Lich, only stating that he found the communication device by luck and was granted the status of a formal wizard upon his return.
"So apprentices can also be granted the status of formal wizards!" After hearing all this, Theodore felt his understanding had been refreshed once again.
Shocked, he asked many more questions, such as the situation inside Wall Manor and the details inside the Abyss.
Lorne answered each question very patiently.
"Alright, let's stop talking about me." After chatting for a while, Lorne interrupted Theodore, "How about you? Did your assessment go well?"
"Lady Katarina's assessment is very strange." Theodore rested his chin on his hand, somewhat annoyed.
"The first test took me to a remote town in the kingdom, where I was required to duel with the town's knights and defeat them with overwhelming superiority."
"It was very difficult at first, but as the battle intensified, my mastery of several level-three spells became more and more solid, and in the end, even the Knight Commander was no match for me."
"My name then spread throughout the town."
This is preparation for Theodore's promotion to a full wizard... Lorne quickly understood the purpose of this move.
The most crucial step in transforming mental power into magic is to leave an anchor point in the real world.
Arriving in a remote town, the residents there might not know much about wizards; in their eyes, knights are unapproachable beings.
Theodore used magic to defeat all the knights, thus gaining fame in the town.
It has to be said that Katarina is very good to Theodore, but I wonder if she has any ulterior motives?
Compared to Enforcement Minister Collomb, who holds a higher or lower position?
Lorne was worried that Katarina was a low-ranking wizard and that his attention to an apprentice might have ulterior motives.
The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he didn't know how to tell Theodore.
"If you feel it's too much to ask, you can choose to give up. The last recruitment gave me a lot of merit, which I can exchange for cultivation resources..."
Before he could finish speaking, Theodore interrupted, "No need."
"Lorne, wait for me at the Wizard Tower. I'll be back to find you soon," Theodore said resolutely, his eyes gleaming.
"Okay." Lorne knew Theodore's stubbornness, so he didn't press the matter. "I'll wait for you."
"Oh, right!" Theodore suddenly remembered the test and jumped out of bed. "I've wasted too much time. I still need to go to the Wizard Tower to participate in Lady Katarina's second test."
"Let's go together." Lorne's main purpose in returning to the apprentice district this time was to find Theodore; there was nothing else particularly important.
Another thing is to get the Ring of Purifying Flame back from Theodore.
Now that he had the identity of a Black Tower Wizard, even though Hyman knew that he had stolen his artifact, he did not openly make a move inside the Wizard Tower.
Moreover, once the other party obtains the stable wristband, they will no longer pay attention to me.
"Theodore, where did you hide the ring I asked you to keep for me?"
"A ring?" Theodore racked his brains to recall, and finally took it out of his storage ring. "You entrusted me with this in a hurry, and I was worried that someone else would sense this ring, so I kept it in my storage ring."
Lorne paused for a moment, realizing he had indeed overlooked this detail. Thinking about it afterward made him extremely anxious, but thankfully he had lost it.
The existence of the Ring of Purification can be sensed by mental power, so it's unlikely that it can be hidden away without careful consideration.
He thought to himself that it was a good thing Hyman didn't come after Theodore after getting the Stability Bracelet, otherwise it would have been a big problem.
"It's my fault," Lorne said to himself, taking the Ring of Purifying Flame and putting it into his Moonlight Bag.
"Here, this is for you too." Theodore took out another transparent communication stone and handed it to Lorne. "We can use this stone to contact each other in the future."
A communication stone? Lorne accepted it as well, feeling that the apprentice was somewhat pitiful, having spent a lot of magic crystals to buy a communication stone. The wizard token had this function by default.
The difference in treatment between those at the same level can be like heaven and earth.
The apprenticeship area is like a rural area where information exchange is extremely slow, and the information barriers between apprentices are exceptionally high.
The Wizard Tower is like a highly developed city, with fast information exchange and comprehensive functions.
Lorne mentally reviewed the information he needed to know, preparing to go to the Star River Hall to post his commission once he returned to the Wizard Tower.
First and foremost is the power structure around the Black Sun Tower. My understanding of this world is not deep, and in many aspects, my knowledge is still superficial.
After two months of isolation in the apprentice zone, things are finally getting back on track... Lorne couldn't help but sigh.
"Let's go," Theodore urged from the side.
"it is good."
After their conversation ended, the two left the cabin together, preparing to head towards the apprentice hall.
Before leaving, Lorne glanced back at Theodore's cabin. If nothing unexpected happened, he probably wouldn't be returning...
The two arrived at the quaint, apprentice hall, the last time they had gone to the Wizard's Tower together to register for their apprenticeships.
The two staff members next to the obsidian doors in the lobby were unchanged; they were the same two as last time.
Their identities have changed significantly compared to before.
One has already become a formal wizard, and the other is also basically destined to become a formal wizard.
It's only been about ten days.
Just as Theodore was about to step forward to report, Lorne took out the wizard's token and waved it in front of the two of them.
"Please come in!" Two security guards stood at attention and welcomed them.
"Don't just stand there." Lorne patted Theodore on the shoulder and went into the apprentice hall first.
"Even the approval process has been streamlined..." Theodore thought that being a wizard was really convenient.
Passing through the short passage, the elderly man in front of the semi-circular duty station remained numb.
"The teleportation array to the Wizard's Tower is below. Once you two enter the area of the array, I will activate the teleportation," he said without any emotion.
Lorne found the old man strange, but couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Their gaze lingered on him for a moment before descending the spiral staircases on either side to the teleportation array on the ground floor.
Theodore quickly caught up.
The patterns on the ground burst into light, and a wave of dizziness washed over them.
Once the image became clear, the two had arrived at the reception hall of the Black Sun Tower, where the view before them was incredibly vast.
Lorne and Theodore exchanged a knowing glance; their destinations were different.
"I'll be coming to find you soon."
"Um..."
