Age of Adepts

Chapter 323: Joy and Concern

A small banquet was held at Grimm's residence.

A long table filled with fine food with only twenty or thirty figures.

Though small, the atmosphere on the scene was very warm.

Both staying in the Wizard Tower and the family wizards stationed outside have arrived, each with several apprentices behind him. Those who can be brought with them by formal wizards are either well-prepared quasi-words or highly gifted senior apprentices.

Grimm's five apprentices and the Goblin Kabi are responsible for the reception.

Though busy, Kodal and others were full of excitement and enthusiastic service to everyone present. Every once in a while, their eyes tend to float towards the beautiful girl who is active among the wizards.

Yes, Alice still hasn't broken the body seal of an eight-year-old girl after she was promoted to the rank of witch, and her figure remains eight years old. So how does such a ‘little’ guy look in disobedience when he's in a bunch of official wizards in black or red robes!

But with so many apprentices present, no one dares to make fun of it.

Alice is now completely different from them.

Once they become full wizards, even if only a newcomer, there is an invisible but real class divide between them and their apprentices.

Despite rumours from the outside, Alice has lost all her witchcraft skills and turned into a pure astrologer. But wizards are wizards! Even if the other person's strength is weaker, it is only for the group of witches.

For these apprentices, the other side is still a mountain above their heads that is always difficult to cross!

Wizards have wizard circles, apprentices have apprentice circles.

When the wizards gathered to chat, the apprentices gathered to discuss the interesting and rumours of family territory and surroundings.

Some sociable apprentices take advantage of the opportunity to walk back and forth inside, trying to connect with generations with great potential.

Three days ago, Alice, like them, was a wizard apprentice, and now she's a big man they have to treat with respect. Such inspiring stories clearly inspire the blood and passion of every apprentice and make the atmosphere hotter on the field.

“Congratulations, Alice!” First to congratulate Alice in person is Kiel, a refiner based in Federnand, who took out a small, sophisticated stick of fist-sized turquoise at the top of his arms: “This is a ghost scepter with a wizard-grade evil spirit sealed on it, and it's still good to defend yourself with. This is my gift to you! ”

“Thank you!” Alice had a sweet smile on her face and happily accepted the gift.

Ferrill, the wizard standing beside him, glanced at Kiel and said, “I didn't expect you to blame Kiel for making girls happy. In that case, I'll give you a present too. Here, Alice, this is a bottle of hydrating medicine that keeps your skin hydrated and smooth for a long time. You just completed your promotion, which is exactly the stage where your body needs to be adjusted...”

“Thank you Sister Ferrill!” The smile on Alice's face is even sweeter.

Seeing both of their companions present, the rest of Cogan and Harrison couldn't help but smile at each other and find their storage space.

Ultimately, Cogan came out with a white crystal that clarified purity and was perfect for making divination crystal balls. And what Harrison gave Alice was a witchcraft flip ring, able to rebound a pointing to sexual witchcraft to the doer, which was also a good protective magic object.

Alice is obviously also a little ‘fan’, suddenly getting a lot of treasures, wonders, and can't even open her eyes to laugh. Hold these things with your hands, a strong one in there for silly fun.

“Let's find another place to celebrate! We're here, and these little guys can't let go either...” Grimm smiled softly and led several wizards into the secret room.

As these ‘old guys' left, the atmosphere in the ballroom burst into flames. An apprentice who was not brave enough to be suppressed by a witch's aura could finally celebrate with impunity.

Several apprentices and Goblin Kabi belonging to the Grimm family were surrounded by people who asked about the 'Alice Wizard', and the envy of the words overflowed with words.

Due to the need for a battlefield, family wizards are constantly being drawn to the exotic surface, which has led to a relatively low level of resident wizards in the Sarubo family on the Wizards' Continent. Every family wizard basically represents a great deal of power and interest.

These things may not be of particular concern to the wizards, but for their apprentices standing behind the wizards, they represent enormous interests that are so immense that they cannot be removed.

If you compare the Sarubo family to a huge whale herd, the many wizard apprentices surrounding it are a small fish that lives off the food residue of the other side. If they are able to maintain good relationships with any one of the objects, the personal benefits they derive from this will also double.

The Salubo family did not have many resident wizards, and now the Fire Demons account for only two of them, so the Kodal and Merrill Fire Demons will undoubtedly have their quasi-witches rise to the boat's height, and will be able to get more resources tilted by the family.

Such a hidden gain is enough to make any young quasi-witch's eye red!

Ignoring the fluctuations between his apprentices, Grimm, a group of wizards, left after a few brief conversations. Although they are also the wizards of the Sarubo family, everyone has their own secrets and the contents of their personal research are not easily shared.

So the meaning between wizards is also faint, more is just a mutual use and investment!

Grim, the fireman's power, is well known.

Whether it's a battlefield or a family war, he's got more weight than an old wizard like Kogan. Alice is an eye-catching Northern Witch carrying the sacred halo of the Destiny Witch Candidate.

You know, once Alice became a Destiny Witch, even if she was just a first-degree witch, she had the same rights and interests as those fourth-level witch leaders. According to ancient traditions and traditions, the remaining witch factions must spit out the encroached Destiny Witch family territory and give Destiny a chance to rise again!

It is a tradition and a covenant!

When any witch faction rises again after experiencing ups and downs, other witch factions must provide the necessary protection and support. It is with this tradition of mutual help that the thirteen witch factions will continue to hold the northern territories of the witch continent firmly in place.

So investing appropriately in a witch candidate is definitely something worth doing. However, if Alice is to have the full support of the Sarubo Clan, I'm afraid more consultations and more exchanges of interests are necessary.

After all, the information that Sanaza tortured showed that there were no shortage of elite descendants from other witch factions among the candidates for this selection of Destiny Witches.

Angelina, the leader of the fraudulent witch, sent someone to hang Alice, precisely because her great-granddaughter had also accidentally become the awakener of the Destiny Witch bloodline. To ensure the success of her lineage as a witch of destiny, she dispatched a large number of men to strangle those awakeners who had leaked their identity.

In the name of helping blood relatives, Angelina can also avoid accusations by other witches that she is involved in the selection of destiny factions. That is why her actions have become so unscrupulous and even intolerable.

With her across the mountain, the rest of the wizard family or organization becomes hesitant when choosing who to support.

After all, Angelina herself is a fourth-level witch, and her men are hundreds of official witches, such a power that no one dares to ignore.

To be honest, if Grimm hadn't been deeply involved in the 'struggle for fate', with the strength of the Sarubo family, he would not have made any investment in Alice, the ‘necessarily dead'.

This is evident from today's celebration.

Several wizards personally gave Alice blessings and gifts, but Sanazza III wizards, representing the Sarubo family, did not show up at all. And the Sarubo family and Alice signed a service contract just eight years before the Battle for Destiny began.

That's enough to explain Sarubo's attitude!

They don't like Alice's ‘fate’.

Even if it doesn't sound good, if it wasn't for Grimm's face, and Alice became a wizard, I'm afraid the Salubo family would have thought of handing over Alice's ‘apprentice’ in exchange for some profit from the fraudulent witch faction!

So when Alice smiled and sent all the guests away, and said goodbye to Grimm, she went back to her place alone, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared and changed to a look of agony.

Despite her girlish body and appearance, she possesses an acute mind of a 16-year-old girl.

The Sarubo Clan's gesture is so obvious, how could she not understand it!

Is it time to say goodbye, find a place where no one can hide, or is it time to take refuge under the wings of Grimm and become the client of each other...

This kind of difficulty makes her difficult!

Although she has the status of a Moya trainee witch, Alice knows for herself. This is not enough for the leader of the White Witch to take the lead for herself and face Angelina.

Witches have always been united.

Sometimes it is inevitable to make some internal sacrifices in order to sustain that unity.

One is the immediate descendant of the fraudulent witch leader, and the other is an ordinary member of the white witch community. If these two identities collide, and if they are referred to the Witch Council for adjudication, the decision will not benefit Alice.

So Alice is unprecedented in her determination to return to the Moyas and stay with Grimm. At least Grimm is defending her in good faith and winning every chance for her.

Alice still sees this very clearly!
