Chapter 113 010: Farewell and Rejection

Elemental Castle, Courtyard of Painting.

It is still the same corridor and the same garden courtyard.

In the courtyard, Luo Xi once again saw the witch who exuded the aura of a queen.

Just like last time, she sat at the round table, drinking black tea and reading a book with her head down, while the same bull-headed man in a formal dress was still serving her beside her.

As soon as Luo Xi approached, the bull head stood up and exhaled two thick breaths from its nostrils.

Just when Luo Xi thought that he was going to list a long list of dishes like last time, the Minotaur unexpectedly did not say anything, but just moved a chair over.

At the same time, the woman opposite put down her book, looked up and said, "Sit down."

Oh? Why are you so polite this time?

Luo Xi didn't act pretentiously and sat down at the table.

At the same time, he secretly glanced at the book in the woman's hand. He was curious about what book she was reading so intently, but unfortunately the woman had already put the book under the table, so he didn't see anything.

At the same time, the woman began to praise: "I watched the previous game, and I am very satisfied with your performance on the field."

After a pause, she got straight to the point and said, "I remember I told you last time that if you show higher value in your future performance, I can talk to you again."

"Congratulations, you did it. Here is the new contract I drafted. Take a look at it."

As she spoke, she handed over a parchment scroll.

Luo Xi picked it up and took a quick look. The content was almost the same as last time. The only obvious change was the validity period.

The previous contract was only valid for 100 years, but this time a new clause was added. If he successfully becomes a wizard, the validity period will be automatically extended to 1000 years.

It seems that the other party has already accepted that I can successfully advance to a wizard? However...

The duration of this effect is too long. One thousand years, this is a time span that Luo Xi cannot even imagine now.

On the other side, Iris took out a deck of cards and spread it out in front of Luo Xi. Just like last time, there were still moving portraits on the cards.

However, unlike the ugly ones last time, this time there were young girls who were close in age to Luo Xi and had delicate looks.

Good man, so you really were teasing me on purpose last time?

Iris picked up the tea and said, "Pick one."

Although she didn't want to admit it, it was true. This young apprentice was much better than she had expected, and the way she treated him last time was too hasty.

Now Iris just wants to end it all as soon as possible. The sudden stain in her work makes her, who has always been pursuing perfection, very unhappy.

Luo Xi took a quick look and found that it was indeed much better looking than last time.

He then handed the scroll forward and gave the same reply as last time: "Sorry, I have no plans to join a wizard family for the time being."

Iris was stunned, and her hand holding the tea froze there.

She asked, "What did you just say?"

Luo Xi looked strange. Did I not explain it clearly? So he raised his voice again and repeated, "I'm sorry, I have no plans to join the wizard family for the time being, so I can't sign a contract with you."

Iris was stunned, her eyes filled with surprise, as if she couldn't understand.

This apprentice rejected her? Rejected the Best family? She raised her eyebrows: "Are you kidding?"

As one of the top three wizarding families in the South Coast Wizarding Domain, Iris has never encountered any rejection. Even the famous formal-level wizards will gladly accept the olive branch thrown by their family.

reject?

This word simply does not appear in her dictionary.

Luo Xi shook his head and repeated again: "This is not a joke. I really have no plans to join a wizard family for the time being."

Iris narrowed his eyes. "So, the other families have already negotiated with you in advance? The Lakram family? Or Oslaine?"

The two names mentioned are the other two wizarding families that are on par with the Best family. These three wizarding families are the three giants that constitute the South Coast Wizardry, dominating everything in the South Coast Wizardry.

After thinking about it, Iris felt that this was the only reason, but it didn't make sense. If it was the person chosen by the other two families, it would be impossible not to greet them in advance. Could it be an oversight? Just as Iris was curious about this, Luo Xi shook his head again: "No, this is just my own decision."

Iris was startled.

Now she understood it completely.

She didn't say anything, but just looked at Luo Xi, as if she wanted to see through this apprentice.

Uh. Why does the atmosphere feel a bit off? Luo Xi quickly said goodbye, "Since there's nothing else to do, I'll leave first. It's an honor to meet you. I hope we can have another chance to work together."

After saying that, he waited for a while but got no reply from the other party. Seeing this, Luo Xi was too lazy to wait any longer, so he got up and walked out.

Iris's eyes turned completely cold.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

And just at the moment when her eyes turned cold, Cat Ears, who had been standing quietly beside her, suddenly drew out the big sword behind him and slashed towards Luo Xi.

"Whoosh!" A sharp sound of breaking wind exploded.

The petite cat ears jumped into the air, and the big sword in her hand turned into a bright moon, smashing towards Luo Xi with a cold light.

"Dang!" The sound of metal interweaving like a gong was heard.

At the moment when the greatsword was about to strike, something suddenly flashed in Luo Xi's hand, and a silver-gray two-handed cross sword appeared in his hand, which was the Greatsword of Glory.

Some time ago, when Luo Xi was making wizard tools, he repaired the Glory Greatsword. The main blade was replaced with tougher mithril. In addition, he also added rare magic materials such as starry sky fine iron to make it more compatible with magic and become a true magic weapon and wizard tool.

When the great swords collided, Luo Xi immediately felt an overwhelming force sweeping over him. He never expected that this seemingly light and lithe boy with cat ears could have the strength of at least a great knight!

"Boom!"

Under this overwhelming force, Luo Xi was knocked back more than ten meters. In the end, he was able to stop by thrusting the Sword of Glory into the ground.

A straight line appeared on the ground, and countless flowers and plants were splashed into the air.

“Hoohoo~”

Just as he stood firm on his feet, the cold whistling sound rang in his ears again. As soon as he looked up, he saw Cat Ears holding the big sword and slashing towards him again.

"Okay, Yue."

At the critical moment, Iris' voice rang out.

The cat ears in the air twisted its body with an incredible movement, retracted the sword that had been swung out, and used the force to calmly land on the ground.

The scene returned to silence again.

Luo Xi looked coldly at the people in front of him, his mental strength ready to go.

What kind of logic is this? If you don't join, you will be cut off?

As if seeing through what Luo Xi was thinking, Iris raised his head, looked at him and said calmly: "This is the South Coast Witch Domain. You are rejecting my Best Family here. Do you really know what you are doing?"

Luo Xi frowned, did not answer, and turned away silently.
