The witch Kern, who once started a protracted war, is back!
After the brief meeting with Kern that night, Haierbo immediately confirmed that the strength of this "goddess of death" had become stronger.
However, the news of her reappearance this time was noticed by some interested people not long after, and the news of her comeback spread throughout Europe with a slight panic. But the second brutal war that everyone thought would start again did not start.
About ten days later, the witch Kern, who made many people fearful all day long, quietly left the world's sight again.
But this time, she never came back.
After that, Haierbo once made many inquiries about the mysterious disappearance of Kern Zhong, trying to find out a truth that he could at least accept. It was not until several years later that he learned some relatively reliable information from her former teacher in Athens, Greece, where Kern was born.
…
"Are you a student of Kern? Oh, I can't believe that little Kern actually had a student..."
When Haierbo found Kern's former teacher, he found that he was already quite old.
Compared to his apprentice, who didn't know whether he should be proud or sad, the old wizard was obviously not very outstanding, and in his later years he never continued to do any in-depth magic research.
That afternoon, when Haierbo found him at the door of his old house, he saw him basking in the sun under the eaves, as if he was enjoying his old age and waiting for his destiny.
But when he mentioned his student Kern, who once impressed him the most but finally made him sigh the most, his wrinkled face still showed a little regret.
"Sorry, kid... If you want to know where she went in the end, or whether she is still living well in this world, I don't know. But... I only know that during the ten days after she reappeared , a person once came to me and talked to me about Xiao Kern’s past... I think that the fact that Xiao Kern disappeared again in the end should have something to do with him.”
"Someone came to see you? In those ten days or so?" Haierbo heard this, and immediately asked, "Who is it? Why did you feel that Miss Kern had just come to chat with you for a while?" Could the disappearance have anything to do with him?”
"Oh, of course it's not certain. In the final analysis, this is just a guess on my part." The old wizard shook his head, fumbled for the old staff lying in his hand, and said slowly, "It's just that, as that person's identity and ability, but I can’t help but think so!”
"Who is that?"
At that time, Haierbo felt that it seemed that he had come to the right place to find this old wizard in Athens.
And soon, he saw the old wizard sigh, with some admiration and envy in his expression and softly said:
"You should also know him. In other words, in our time, I'm afraid no one will know his name - 'The Invincible Andros'."
As soon as the old wizard said this name, Haierbo felt relieved. Indeed, if he was looking for Kern, then it would not be so puzzling that Kern never caused any big disturbances.
With that man's strength, no one would ever say that the witch Kern was the most powerful wizard today, even when Kern was at the height of her fame when she gained the title of Goddess of Death and frightened countless people.
Not for anything else, just because there is a great wizard Andros in this world who wears the "invincible" crown on his head, and no one has been able to take it off his head for more than a hundred years.
At the moment, the old wizard sitting in front of Haierbo has obviously admired him for a long time, so much so that when he mentions that man, it seems that even the surging heart that he had when he was young surges up in his chest again.
After a slight pause, the old wizard finally said:
"Andros mentioned it when he left me, saying that Kern's talent was amazing, but unfortunately he chose a path full of thorns, and in the end he took the wrong step and fell into the abyss... I don't know if he will go. Help Xiao Kern, after all, with his character, it’s really hard to say.”
Just like the more you know, the more you realize your own insignificance and ignorance. Perhaps, the more powerful a wizard is, the more he can understand the long and difficult path of magic.
The same is true for Andros, so in the past hundred years, he has not really appeared in front of everyone very often.
But of course, every time he appears, people will remember him firmly again.
For example, a hundred years ago, when he first became famous in the world, he single-handedly summoned a patron saint as tall as an ancient giant, glowing with silver, and stopped a fight that might have been bloody. A river of war.
And this time, although not many people seemed to know that he had taken action, the fact that the goddess of death returned and disappeared again soon... If Andros came out and admitted that he had done it, no one would probably think much of it. Accident.
On the same day, Haierbo left there after asking the old wizard some more questions. And his target finally gradually shifted from the witch Kern, who could not be found, to Andros.
However, since then, Herbo not only has not seen Kern again, but also has not found Andros. In order to make Andros appear, he even imitated Kern's appearance and caused many disturbances in Greece. A riot.
Unfortunately, his strength is far less powerful than Kern. Although many small-scale wars did spread his evil reputation, in that era, there were many wizards who were stronger than him, and every time they were suppressed by other wizards.
As a result, the life that really belonged to Haierbo, the hundred or so years, slipped away quickly in the days when he was resting and looking around.
As the years passed, Haierbo gradually grew older. With his white beard and hair and his body becoming more and more sluggish, he slowly realized that he was approaching the end of his life.
To be honest, Haierbo is not actually afraid of death - he has witnessed too many births, old age, illness and death in his life, and he has even lost countless lives by his own hands.
He was just unwilling to give in. He had been chasing that figure almost his whole life, but the other person had never looked at him... even once.
However, it seems that he has never hated the other person, the girl who led him to the path of magic.
Maybe it was fate that took pity on his life that was full of drama but always dull and boring! When he entered his twilight years and was almost about to say goodbye to this world with regrets like many others in the world, he finally found something directly related to "her".
It was a mirror, an ancient mirror that changed Haierbo's life.
