The Lord of Ashes

Dean Archimedes and others did not bother to question Thain for too long.

Maybe they also knew that Thain was very tired just after returning to the academy, and he also had some things of his own to be busy with.

However, before Thain was about to turn around and leave, the old dean Archimedes asked about another thing, about his new disciple Green.

Faced with the old dean's inquiry, Thain was stunned for a moment.

Because he was indeed on the poisonous green flame world battlefield and did not hear any news about Green, although they could be called friends.

The Poison Fire Green Flame World battlefield is so huge that some magicians who participated in the war have not been seen for more than ten years, which is normal.

That's the case with Thane and Green.

However, considering that both of them are magicians from the Jade Source Holy Tower, and in many combat missions, the fortress will assign magicians from the same holy tower to similar areas.

It's like this. It's strange that Thain hasn't met Green for more than ten years.

Green should not have died, and Thain generally knows this.

As for why the other party had not had any interaction with Thain in combat missions for more than ten years, he could only give Dean Archimedes an awkward smile in return.

…

After parting ways with the dean and others, Thain flew straight towards the tower main area on the top floor of the holy tower.

Above the 700th floor of the Blue Origin Holy Tower, Lu Lianman's territory is occupied.

Thain, the mentor, even allocated floors 700 to 720 for Thain's use. Such an open area made Thain occupy more floors in the Holy Tower than several deans.

In these holy tower floors, there are a large number of experimental instruments purchased by Lu Lianman, as well as some specimens collected in the early years.

Of course, Thain can use these experimental instruments for free. Lu Lianman even has a private library with an extensive collection of books on the top floor of the Holy Tower.

After returning to the top floor of the Holy Tower, Thain was not in a hurry to return to the floors where he usually lived. Instead, he came to the 701st floor of the Holy Tower.

The 701st and 702nd floors of the Holy Tower, before Thain left, he gave them to his cousin Selina for free use.

In addition to the experimental instruments in the Holy Tower, Thane also left many energy crystals and some magic books to Selina before leaving. I haven’t seen her for more than ten years, and I don’t know how Selina’s magic learning progress is.

Thain still remembered the night before he set off from the Holy Tower. His cousin Selina wanted to devote herself to him, but Thain temporarily rejected her because he was waiting for Selina to advance to the first level.

After more than ten years, Thain estimated that it would be difficult for Selina to be promoted to a first-level magician, but there was still a chance for a quasi-magician.

Arriving at the 701st floor of the Holy Tower, the place is still as tidy and clean as when Thain left.

In many places, Thain can recall familiar memories, and occasionally see a few unfamiliar experimental instruments and materials placed there. Thain also knows that his cousin Selina has not forgotten to grow up over the years.

Selina seems to have embarked on the path of an alchemist, but compared to Thane, Selina is obviously far behind.

Without a mentor to guide her and no particularly mature theoretical knowledge, Selina's path as an alchemist was even more difficult than that of Thain.

Of course, the reason why this girl became an alchemist is probably closely related to Thain.

Thain still remembers Selena saying that she wanted to help him, nothing more.

On the 701st and 702nd floors of the Holy Tower, Thain did not see Selina.

Thinking that it was daytime, Selina was either going to magic class, going to the library, or maybe going out to perform some academy task.

With a slight sigh, Thain flew towards the 706th floor of the Holy Tower. There was a large warehouse there. Thain needed to sort out his harvest in the world of poisonous fire and green flames.

"Cuckoo!" Owl Xiaoqi flew out of the space flute hanging around Thane's neck.

Returning to a familiar place, Xiao Qi also flew around, looking happy.

The constructor that Thane captured in the poisonous green flame world battlefield was given to Irene as a living specimen to be transported back through the space fortress.

That female constructor was not the only living specimen that Thain harvested from this plane war. Some of the flame creatures in the poisonous green flame world were not valuable in the context of the world's war at that time, but after being brought back to the wizarding world, there may be others. The magician is interested.

Especially those academic magicians who have not participated in this plane war.

Whenever he gets into work and busy state, Thain always tends to ignore the passage of time.

Especially now that he has been promoted to a first-level magician, sometimes he will not feel the slightest sensation after being hungry for several days, and Thain is even more likely to be like this.

Before I knew it, it was almost dusk outside.

Thain, who was still in the warehouse counting his gains from this plane war with a crystal ball, suddenly felt the warehouse door behind him quietly open.

The mental power of a first-level magician is so sharp that even if he is not in a combat state, it is difficult for ordinary creatures to approach him quietly.

When Thain turned around, he saw Selena, who was wearing a light yellow dress and her face was obviously excited and happy.

Two lines of clear tears fell from the corners of Serena's eyes, and she felt as if she was in a dream.

After rubbing his eyes vigorously, Thain remained motionless.

Only then did Selena believe that everything was true. She wanted to run over and hug Thain, but the reserve of aristocratic women she had developed since she was a child, and the slight sense of strangeness and distance caused by not seeing each other for more than ten years, kept her there. , I didn’t know how to express it for a while.

"Oh, you're back. Did you just finish the magic class?" Thain's psychology and emotions were not as complicated as Selena's. He smiled faintly and asked in a calmer tone.

Thain's question made Selena nod.

Perhaps because she heard the familiar voice that she thought about day and night again, Selena could no longer restrain herself. She took three steps and two steps at a time, rushed straight towards Thain, and finally threw herself into Thain's arms.

"Cousin..." Selina cried excitedly and hugged Thain tightly.

Thain raised his hand. He didn't know where to put it at first, but he finally put it on Selena's back. Facing his cousin who had lost his composure, Thain replied in a deep voice: "Well..."

"Cuckoo." The owl Xiaoqi's cry came from outside the warehouse.

I think it was Xiaoqi who told Selina that Thain was back and was in the warehouse area on the 706th floor.

"I miss your cooking and juice."

"Can you let me relive today?" Thain said to Selena in his arms with a smile.

She nodded heavily and saw that Thain's magic robe was soaked with her tears. Selena's face turned red, but her eyes were still looking at Thain brightly, as if she was afraid that he would suddenly disappear.

More than ten years have passed, and Selina has been promoted to the level of quasi-magician just as Sean expected.
