031: Farewell and Welcome

Erdos Port is the largest seaport in the southeast of Alentre.

At the pier, there was a sea of ​​people and flags fluttering. The pier, which is famous for its spaciousness and can accommodate tens of thousands of people, seemed very crowded at the moment. Thick and dense crowds crowded the place, and it was even more lively than a festival.

Everyone turned their attention to the boat berth at the end of the pier, looking forward to it.

A huge sailing ship is docked there at the moment. It is hundreds of meters long, has four decks, and has as many as five masts. It is an extremely rare giant even in Erdos Port.

I heard that today there will be legendary wizards boarding ships here to go overseas. Everyone wants to see the powerful beings described in these stories who have extraordinary power and can control the wind and rain. Therefore, a large number of people gathered soon after the news was released.

Some of the crowds are said to have come from very far away countryside.

The local politicians were also willing to create a situation where wizards were very popular, so instead of stopping it, they even gave some policies such as ordering hotels not to increase prices, which created this huge scene today.

At this moment, soldiers lined up neatly in two lines, extending from the gangway to the outermost square of the pier, creating a straight passage for people to walk among the dense crowd.

Time passed little by little.

Finally, near noon, when some people were about to faint from the exposure, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance.

"Da da da, da da da..."

On the closed street, a motorcade consisting of a dozen carriages and an honor guard drove over and stopped in the square.

"Click! Click!"

The carriage doors opened one after another, and young men and women walked out of the carriage one after another. They were all uniformly wearing black cloaks with complex patterns embroidered with red silk thread. The legendary magic wand was pinned to their waists and covered by large hoods.

His head and body exuded a mysterious aura.

The crowd began to whisper:

"Are these wizards? So young..."

"It is said that they were apprentices who had just started learning magic. The wizards should be the older ones in front, the ones accompanied by the Viscount."

“Can they really control the wind and rain?”

"I really want to see magic..."

Probably because of the crowd of people watching, the young apprentices became a little more excited. Some apprentices put down their big hoods and gave friendly smiles to the crowd, and some even greeted the crowd directly.

"Wow, they look similar to us, no, to be precise, they are the same!"

"Isn't this nonsense? Wizards are originally human beings."

"She said hello to me and waved!"

People suddenly became excited, and the discussion became more and more intense.

And at this moment, a cynical laugh suddenly came from the queue of apprentices: "Hahaha! It's so lively! The weather is so hot, let me cool down everyone!"

A silver-haired wizard who was about twenty years old and handsome laughed loudly, then took out a cowhide water bag and poured the water in it onto the ground.

Just when everyone didn't understand his intention, the water flowing to the ground suddenly glowed with a blue shimmer, and then everyone was surprised to see the water turn into bubbles one after another and then fly upward one after another.

And quickly formed a cloud layer above everyone's heads that covered the entire dock. This bizarre scene shocked everyone present.

"Boom!" A loud bang sounded in the clouds.

immediately

Rain pours from the sky!

At this moment, the entire dock was boiling.

"Magic! Really magic! Oh my god, I see magic, I really see magic!"

"A miracle! A miracle!"

"It turns out there really is magic in the world, it turns out there really are wizards in the world..."

Shocked, envious, and adoring, some sang songs about wizards despite the wind and rain, some rushed into the rain and danced, and even more excitedly knelt on the ground to worship, and the entire dock was plunged into jubilation. .

Standing on the gangway, Heath looked back at the lively scene below, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of joy in his infected heart.

He said silently in his heart: "This world, here I come!"

Heath, who was completely focused on the crowd, didn't notice at all that there was a pair of eyes in the crowd looking at him.

It was a pair of fierce and sharp eyes, like a wild beast that chooses people and devours them!

Joseph, who was hiding in the crowd, gritted his teeth and whispered: "Don't be proud, you damn smasher, and that despicable little bitch!"

"I swear! You will pay the price!"

"Anyone who offends me, Joseph, I will make him regret being born into this world!"

...

At the same time, a welcome party was being held on the other side. Although it was not as lively as Erdos Port, the scale and significance were still greater.

The third apprentice tower, at the entrance to the green path.

Hundreds of apprentices gathered at the entrance of the green path. Under the leadership of several instructors, they were divided into several rows on both sides in order of height. Everyone's cloak was neatly arranged and pinned on the chest. Only those who attended the formal ceremony A brooch badge symbolizing the Third Apprentice Tower that is only worn on special occasions.

The flying flower fairies carried bamboo baskets and sprinkled the newly collected petals all over the green path. The ravens on the tree trunks stood in a row, adjusting their scales and ready to sing loudly. Even the ghosts fell to the ground. He stood out of his own queue.

Yes, there was also a guest visiting the Third Apprentice Tower today, and he was an honored guest that even Karls had to treat with great dignity——

Inspector of the Glory of the Sea of ​​Trees.

'I heard that the censors this time were sent from the Presbytery, so we must make sure there are no mistakes.'

After adjusting his cloak again, Karls said silently.

Time passes bit by bit...

Finally, just before noon, there was a sound of horse hooves in the forest in the distance.

"Ta da...ta da...ta da da..."

A small carriage drove slowly from the woods.

This is a carriage that looks very ordinary and even a bit shabby. The carriage is made of a few pieces of wood and looks simple. Even the nobles don't bother to use it and only appear in car rental agencies.

There was only one horse pulling, and it was a Loroat horse, which was also a very common type, but this horse gave people a strange feeling.

It has humanized bangs on one side of its forehead. It shakes its head when walking, and its walking posture is not as neat and orderly as other horses. Instead, it walks with an arrogant and splayed figure, giving people a very awkward feeling. The thick lips were tilted to one side to reveal a set of big white teeth, looking like a proud smile.

'This...this is...'

Karls looked at the horse, then at the carriage, and seemed to suddenly think of something, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

'No...it can't be...could the censor this time be...'

At the same time, the pony carriage had arrived nearby, and the strange Loroat horse immediately attracted the attention of everyone around it.

As if aware of the gazes around him, the horse suddenly said: "What are you looking at? Have you never seen a handsome guy?"

As he spoke, he stood up humanely and leaned back on the carriage. He took out a small mirror from nowhere with his left front paw. While looking into the mirror, he fiddled with his bangs with his right front paw.

The crowd was stunned for a moment.

The little wizards who were used to seeing bizarre things felt like country bumpkins at this moment.

Before everyone could recover, an old god’s voice came from the carriage: “Okay Mark, stop here and don’t scare anyone.”

Then the carriage opened and an old man in gray robe with a goatee walked out.

'It's...it's really him!'

After seeing the old man's true face, Karls' head exploded with a bang. He never expected that the examiner this time would be a real elder of the Glory of the Sea of ​​Trees!

He hurriedly greeted him: "Lord Fa'en, why are you here in person?"

This frightened look stunned the apprentices present. Is this still the unsmiling dean?

In addition to being surprised, everyone also became curious, who is this old man? How can he be treated so grandly by Dean Carls, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is even groveling.

Faun... Faun... hmm? Wait, this name... doesn't work!

Suddenly, the apprentices seemed to have thought of something, and for a moment, they looked at the old man differently.

The old man smiled and said: "I have nothing to do. Come out for a walk. Why, don't you welcome me?"

Karls said hurriedly: "Sir, if you are there, it will be too late for our third apprentice, Tapeng Piper, to be able to welcome you."

After a pause, he turned to the apprentices and introduced: "This is Wizard Fawn. Yes, it is the wizard Fawn Philoman that you know and have seen in potions books. So what are you waiting for?"

, show your enthusiasm!"

Fawn Freeman!

The chief potion master of the Glory of the Sea of ​​Trees! The main writer of the potions textbook!

Oh! My God!

Such a legend that they had only read about in books stood before their eyes. The apprentices were stunned for a moment. It was like a dream.

Wizard Fawn did not blame everyone for their impoliteness, or in other words, he didn't care.

He just asked Karls: "Dean Karls, are all the apprentices in the third apprentice tower here?"

Karls nodded solemnly and reported a series of data in detail: "Yes, sir, there are a total of 632 apprentices, including high-level...medium-level...low-level...except for a few apprentices who are out on missions.

The rest is here."

Wizard Fawn nodded and looked around the crowd.

immediately.

He put on an amiable smile and suddenly asked in a tone of curiosity and expectation: "So, who is the Heath kid? Come out and let me meet you."

"Heath Schwartz."
