"How are your studies going lately? Do you have any questions?" Thain asked Selina who was sitting next to him during dinner.
In fact, after reaching the level of a formal magician, the transformation of his life constitution has made it unnecessary for Thain to eat three fixed meals every day.
Many magicians, above the official level, forget about food and sleep for several days, or even a month, before their bodies can survive.
It's just that Thain has just been promoted to the first level, and many of his habits have not changed.
And enjoying delicious food is actually a way to enjoy life.
Although Thain is keen on exploring the truth and the mysteries of magical elements, he does not abuse himself, but often relaxes and enjoys it.
It's not a bad thing to enjoy yourself sometimes while you're young.
Take food as an example. If Thain lives for hundreds or thousands of years in the future, I am afraid that no matter how delicious the food is, it will be tasteless to him if he eats too much.
Sometimes there is no need to look forward to the future too long ago, it is true to cherish the present.
Thain's voice is still so steady and deep.
Faced with Thain's inquiry, Selina put down her knife and fork and said: "The recent study and research have been relatively smooth, but there are still some bottlenecks in the construction of the Scorched Eye spell model. I plan to go to the library to take a look in the next two days.
.”
Selena is now a senior magic apprentice. She broke through half a year ago.
At her age, she is considered to be among the best in the academy by breaking through to the advanced apprenticeship level.
Selena's breakthrough was largely due to the resources provided to her by Thain, as well as the usual reminders during meals.
Although Thain is her cousin, in some ways, he can be regarded as half of Selena's mentor.
For example, the Scorched Eye advanced spell model that Selina recently researched and constructed is a weakened version of the advanced spell derived from the Eye of the Sun magic.
There is no way, the original Eye of the Sun magic is relatively difficult to master, and the improved version of Thain's Eye of the Sun is beyond the reach of Selena, who has just been promoted to a senior apprentice.
Although the power of the Eye of Scorch spell is slightly lower than that of the original Eye of the Sun, it is no longer weak among the advanced spells.
In addition, Selina has often assisted Thain in alchemical experiments over the years, and she has almost mastered a certain amount of alchemical knowledge.
The Burning Eye magic taught to him by Thane, and the Crimson Mask, the high-level magic equipment she now masters, have a certain matching effect from some angles.
In response to Selena's answer, Thane nodded without making any expression.
In fact, if Thane has enough time, he can help Selina improve her spell model and check where she encounters the bottleneck.
But Thain didn't do that.
He is just Selena's cousin, not her nanny.
Including when he taught Selena the Burning Eye magic before, Thain just gave a rough explanation at the dinner table and revealed the principles of the Burning Eye magic and how to build the spell model.
As for the specific areas of operation, Selena has to figure it out herself.
On the road of truth exploration, it is impossible to always have others leading you.
And compared to the kind of cramming of knowledge, Thain prefers to let Selena continue to grow through her own exploration and learning.
When he heard that Selina would go to the college library to look for relevant knowledge needed for her research, Thain was still very satisfied.
In fact, Thain has not provided any special help to Selina in recent years. The mid-level and low-level magic materials used by Selina are all low-end materials that Thain can no longer use at this stage.
Of course, it is also possible that as a first-level magician, Thain's family background is too rich, so he did not care about the gift of magic materials.
Magic materials can be given away, but academy points cannot be given to Selena for nothing.
Selina is not like Thain, who can be so arrogant as to use energy crystals and magic coins to exchange for academy points.
In order to ensure that her research and learning progress does not fall behind, Selina must also regularly perform some college tasks.
This is also a way of experience.
"You must already know that next month, I will go to an alien plane to fight a war with my mentor and other official magicians of the Holy Tower of Origin of Jade."
"This war may last nearly thirty years. I hope that when I come back, I can see you promoted to a quasi-magician, or even a formal magician." Thain looked at Selina and said.
"Bang!" The silver spoon fell from Selena's hand and hit the ground, making a sharp and crisp sound.
She did know that Thain was about to leave, but she didn't know that Thain would be away for thirty years.
How old is Selena this year?
Thirty years has almost been Selena's entire life.
Selina couldn't imagine what it would be like not to see Thain for thirty years.
She has become accustomed to Thain's presence and treats him as family.
No, deep down in Selena's heart, she may have regarded Thain as a being who is closer than her family!
Speaking of which, Selena is even more lonely than Thane.
After all, Thane still has a father, a half-brother, and a nephew.
But after Selena's grandfather passed away, the only closest relative left was her cousin Sean.
Although there are many relatives of Selena in the Ferelen family, it’s okay not to mention those relatives.
She also said that she would not return to the Ferelen family before she was promoted to an official magician.
Her white hands couldn't help but tremble a little. Selena lowered her head and picked up the silver spoon that fell from the bottom of the dining table.
Of course, it is also possible that Thain had predicted this in advance.
That's why he chose to mention this to her in the last month.
The scattered long hair obscured Selena's facial expression at this time.
Thain did not dwell too much on this matter. After drinking the juice that Selena prepared for him, Thain stood up and prepared to leave the table.
Before leaving, Thain turned around and added: "I have already told my mentor that even if we leave the Holy Tower of Origin of Jade and go to an alien plane to join the war, the 701st and 702nd floors of the Holy Tower will still be open to you."
"I will also leave you some energy crystals and magic coins when the time comes."
"If you encounter any difficulty that is difficult to solve, you can go to the 662nd floor of the Holy Tower to find Green, or go to the 259th floor of the Holy Tower to find Daniel, or find Anna. They will all help you." After Thain finished speaking, he went straight.
Left the restaurant.
…
night.
After a whole day of experimental research, Thain lay on the bed.
Recently, as the departure period is getting closer, some of Thain's research and experiments have also come to a more critical end.
Therefore, he felt a little tired both mentally and physically.
"The world of poisonous fire and green flames...is it a different world similar to the world of yellow sand?"
"I heard from Master that it is an alien plane with complete rules. There are billions of native intelligent creatures alone." Thain muttered to himself as he leaned his head on the pillow and looked at the ceiling.
When Thain was lost in thought.
With a "squeak" sound, the originally closed door suddenly opened.
