Wizarding World, Northland Witchland.
Tower of Destiny.
A daily fate prayer ceremony has just ended, and dozens of fate witches are exiting the astrology hall in an orderly manner. As the host, Alice still stood silently in the center of the Starlight Witch Array, feeling the power of destiny that melted into her body like raindrops.
"Teacher, you seem to be a little preoccupied today..." A clear and sweet female voice came from behind, it was that Lucia.
I haven't seen her for many years, this Lucia who has the title of "Daughter of Destiny" has grown from a girl to a beautiful young girl. Her round face, straight nose bridge, thin lips, big black grape-like eyes, and youthful figure all showed her beauty and delicacy to the fullest.
However, what makes people feel a little strange is that what she wears is not the starlight robe that witches of fate often wear, but an extremely simple arcane robe. Just to show her identity as an astrologer, she drew magic lines representing the sun, moon and stars on the corners of the arcane robe.
Alice sighed and turned around, looked Lucia up and down, and said quietly, "Why, you still plan to take the Arcanist route?"
"Yes!" Lucia said softly, but the firmness in her brows and eyes was clear at a glance: "I firmly believe that only arcane arts that have been studied hard can represent the truth in the world! But the power of destiny that we pray day and night is always Given by outsiders…”
"Power is power, is there a difference?" Alice's eyes were full of pampering and admiration that could not be concealed.
"Yes! Fate can give us power, and it can take it away. When fate no longer favors us, we will have nothing and become real waste. But arcane art is different... no one can take the arcane art we have developed Take it away, no one!"
Alice sighed again, stretched out her hand to gently caress Lucia's silky and smooth hair, and said distressedly: "Little girl, you should know that if you always hold this kind of thinking, your astrological level will be destroyed. You will never be able to reach the fourth level! Destiny needs to be wholehearted, not half-hearted!"
"I know, but I prefer to believe in the power I really have!" Although Lucia is young, she already has the identity of a third-tier Arcanist and a third-tier Astrologer.
The profession of Arcanist requires people to open their eyes, embrace the reality of the world, and discard all irrational and non-intellectual content; while Astrologer requires followers to close their eyes, devote themselves to the embrace of fate devoutly, and obey the guidance of fate wholeheartedly...
In essence, these two classes are completely opposite, and it can even be said that they are incompatible!
But what is surprising is that they are perfectly integrated in Lucia!
"What plans do you have for your future?" Alice asked curiously.
"I'm going to work hard to improve, and then go to the abyss realm..." Lucia said through gritted teeth.
"What are you doing in the Abyss Realm? There are evil and ugly demonic creatures everywhere, and a beauty like you will not be welcomed!"
"I have to go there!" Lucia said seriously: "Because I have already inquired, many remaining arcanists have fled into the abyss, where they are struggling to survive. I... I want to fight with them! "
Alice sighed again, and said softly: "The demons in the abyss don't care whether you have ideals or beliefs. They will only bite your flesh and blood and devour your soul... Your partners have already survived in the abyss. For more than two hundred years, are you sure they are still the original ones?"
"I don't know! Maybe most of them have been polluted by the will of the abyss! But even so, I want to go and see... Even if there is only one partner left, I want to pull him out! "I don't know why, when Lucia said this, a pure and holy light appeared on her soft and smooth face.
"Then work hard! The identity of a third-level arcanist is definitely not enough. You must have at least a fifth-level strength to be eligible to enter the abyss."
"I know, so I will work harder!"
"Now I finally understand what you believe in! You are not an unbeliever, but what you believe in is not something external, but your heart... This may be the biggest difference between you and me!"
"Ms. Alice, you... you have so many emotions today, are you missing that Greem again?" Lucia finally asked curiously.
Alice was sympathetic for the last moment, and the identity building of a kind elder was immediately disintegrated.
She gave Lucia an angry look, and said bitterly: "Since you don't intend to become a fate witch, don't call me teacher anymore, just call me sister!"
"So... Elder Sister Alice, were you missing Master Greem just now?" Lucia obviously didn't intend to let him go on this issue, and continued to ask with a smile.
"Cough..." Alice sighed and took Lucia into her arms, and said quietly, "I'm not missing him... I'm worried about him!"
"Isn't missing and worrying the same thing?" Lucia drilled a head out of her arms, and asked in surprise: "Besides, that Greem heard that he's doing pretty well! A while ago, he gave that Greem from outside the territory Mary brought a lot of good things... Oh boy, I feel greedy looking at those things! Sister, are you angry that he didn't bring you a gift?"
Alice was so bewildered by her troubles that she could only press her little head into her arms resentfully again.
"Ah... Sister Alice, are you planning to suffocate me? You... you seem to be a little bigger!"
"Bad guy, you have become as bad as him now!" Alice's face immediately turned crimson, but was immediately covered by a strong sorrow.
"Sister, what's on your mind?"
"This is our sorrow as the fate witch!" For some reason, Alice sighed more and more: "Obviously seeing fate and knowing what will happen to my lover, but I can't say it."
Lucia was stunned.
This time she obediently did not ask, but listened silently.
She also has the status of a Tier 3 astrologer, so she naturally knows the taboos of the Witch of Fate. There are many things that cannot be uttered, and once they are exported, they will interfere with the known destiny. At that time, fate will have more unpredictable and uncontrollable tributaries and forks.
So there are many things that Alice is willing to say and can say, she will say it herself. And what she couldn't say, it would be harmful for Lucia to ask.
"Lucia, maybe your choice is the right one! The longer you walk on the road of destiny, the more lonely you will be. Even if you see the great horror that your lover will experience in front of the destiny, you can't say anything or do anything."
"If I don't say anything, if I don't do anything, maybe he can still have a glimmer of life. But if I say something and do it, maybe he won't even have this last chance..."
"I... I am really in pain and powerless... Sometimes I really hate this ability of myself... Maybe, ignorant of fate's arrangements, and happily living every day now is the real happiness!"
Alice finished speaking her heart in one breath, and hugged Lucia tightly, and the tears finally dripped down without concealment, and wet her hair.
Lucia also sighed silently, hugging her more tightly.
...
Fire Elemental Plane, Throne of Fire.
When the soaring body of the wizard's tower burst into dazzling and beautiful lights, the world around the Molten Fire Altar, which is more than ten miles away, was no longer an ownerless thing, but became the crimson great wizard Gree. Tom's above-ground dwelling.
It stands to reason that occupying the land of the Fire Elemental Plane as a human wizard will definitely trigger a riot on the Fire Elemental Plane, which in turn will attract the intervention of high-level flame creatures.
However, Greem, who took the upper route, established a good relationship with the surrounding flame kings early on, and cleaned up the thorns near the territory one by one.
Therefore, when he made clear his banner and delineated his territory, not only did he not trigger the riots of the local flame natives, but instead, many envoys of the king came here sporadically to congratulate him.
Flame Kings Zetas and Thanos naturally couldn't come in person, and they didn't bother to talk to Greem, a foreigner. But looking at the face of the flame king Gromes, they still sent their own messengers and sent some gifts, which was considered a greeting.
After all, Greem was able to enter the Fire Elemental Plane, and he followed the Groms route, so outsiders regarded him as the Groms family.
For this point, Greem neither admitted nor denied, but dealt with the past in a vague way!
No way, Greem is still an outsider to the Fire Elemental Plane. Although he has already connected with the plane consciousness here because of the world sacrifice, he is not a native creature of the fire element after all.
Therefore, it is also a helpless thing to tear off the tiger skin to block the excuses of the natives!
Fortunately, Greem's identity as a fire witch still fits the space environment here, which did not cause serious rejection by the local indigenous people.
After the Flaming Throne Tower began to operate, Greem ended his days of wandering or living under others, and finally had a 'home' of his own.
After dealing with some affairs of the wizarding world and the Exodar camp one after another, he seriously lived in seclusion in the flame throne witch tower, and started the next step of his strength improvement work.
The mouthful of the Beast Hunting Battle made him eat a lot of food.
The godhead fragments are temporarily sealed up, waiting for him to dig out the greatest use. And a large amount of divinity was directly absorbed by it, part of it was used to improve the basic data of the body, and part of it was used to nourish the increasingly powerful blood of the star beast.
And Greem's basic strength has undergone earth-shaking changes in the day-to-day precipitation!
