It's an amazing feeling to receive a wizard tower.
Every inscription and every magic circle carved in the tower unfolded in three dimensions in my mind, as if I knew where they were and how to use them by nature.
And also know how powerful they are.
Standing in this tower, even though he has not yet learned a single first-ring magic, he inexplicably developed a sense of confidence in his enormous strength, and felt that he could look down on official wizards.
Of course, Ash would not look down on anyone just because he suddenly gained power.
It's just that this tower naturally raised his perspective infinitely, allowing him to overlook everything from a very high angle.
He even felt that if he were in this tower, he would be able to protect Sigourney.
Ash now deeply realized the power that the Wizard Tower brings to a wizard's strength.
But he did not indulge in the feeling of holding power, being superior and in control of everything. He quickly opened his eyes, which made Meng and Sigourney - well, not Sigourney - who were nervously worried about him, feel relieved.
"I'm fine." Ash smiled at Meng, then tilted his head to look at Signy, "I want to renovate the wizard tower, is that okay?"
"Do you want to keep the old site as a memorial?" Sigourney raised an eyebrow, "You should deal with your own things yourself."
Ash nodded, feeling that it was a big project.
Sigourney obviously thought so too. He looked at Meng and said, "You said you were going to live here for a while?"
Meng nodded and patted Ash's shoulder: "Now you are the master here, can you allow me to disturb you for a while?"
Ash: "It's my pleasure."
Before Meng could laugh, he heard Sigourney's disgusted voice again -
"Wait for nothing?"
Meng: "..." Meng was frozen for a long while, then laughed dryly and coughed lightly, "Well... I'm really poor, I don't have a single gold coin in my pocket. Didn't you see that I was cheated by the seller at the wizard market?"
Having been a pauper for too long, even if he became rich overnight, Ash was skilled in putting himself in the role of a pitiful pauper.
I feel the same way.
He was very considerate at the time and wanted to say it was okay and that he wouldn't charge any fees.
But before he could open his mouth, Sigourney spoke again: "Work to pay off the debt."
Meng: “What do you mean?”
Sigourney said slowly, "During your time in the wizard tower, you served as Ash's temporary mentor. He is about to advance to a low-level wizard, so you should take care of him a little more - although he may not need your care that much."
Meng frowned strangely. Before he could complain about his attitude of asking for help, he asked in surprise, "What do you mean by that? It's as if I'm the only one taking care of Ash when you're not here?"
Ash also looked at Sigourney in astonishment, and keenly realized that Sigourney was probably about to leave.
Leave without him.
Sigourney ignored Meng's doubts, just frowned and looked at Ash who was stunned for a moment, clicked her brows lightly, and nailed Meng in place with a glare, then pulled Ash out of the library and closed the door.
"I'm leaving." After coming out, he stood opposite Ash and went straight to the point. His voice was cold but not freezing, like the cool and comfortable spring water on a summer night. "It's been so long, and Nance is no longer useful. It's about time to find out who was behind the murder that day."
"It's time to settle accounts one by one."
His dark red eyes were rich and bottomless: "They want me dead, why should I let them live?"
Ash was puzzled: "Didn't he say that he would show up when the battle for the third wizard tower begins next year?"
Sigourney curled up her pale lips, and under the dim light of the wall lamp, her delicate face looked like an evil and cold dark creature... Well, no, he was a dark creature.
He half-closed his eyes and said in a strangely pleasant voice: "Show up? Of course not now. We promised to give them a big surprise next year. However, we don't plan to let them spend the next few months in peace. Fear, panic, suspicion, torture - what do you think?"
Ash knew what Sigourney was up to.
——A mysterious killer lurks around them and may take their lives at any time. They connect the relationships between the dead and may guess that it is Sigourney's revenge, or they may see everyone as an enemy. After all, the interests of the wizarding world are complicated and intertwined. Today's companions may become tomorrow's opponents. No matter which force, they have many enemies, so it is difficult to determine who is the source of the hidden murderous intention.
I can only feel anxious all day long during the long wait.
It would be most convenient for Sigourney to do what she wants to do alone. It would be troublesome if she brought him along.
But even though he knew it, Ash still couldn't help feeling lost and reluctant. He lowered his head, and his soft hair seemed to wilt.
Sigourney stretched out her slender fingers and lifted his chin, half forcing and half coaxing Ash to look up at him.
"I'm leaving." He said, "You have accepted this wizard tower. It is a very safe place for you. Don't run around - I'm not saying you should run around, but don't be deceived. You can learn magic from him, or start learning potions. The wizard tower has complete laboratories, tools, and materials. Rachel is also good at potions. You can find his notebook to learn. In short -"
Ash rested his chin on one of Sigourney's fingers, and his lips opened and closed in a small arc: "I won't leave here, I'll wait for you to come back in the wizard tower." He still looked listless.
Sigourney nodded slightly in satisfaction.
Then his fingers moved gently, brushing across Ash's jaw and landing on the boy's protruding Adam's apple: "I should face a lot of battles soon. Fighting is very, very energy-consuming."
Ash couldn't help swallowing his saliva as the cold fingertips pressed against his vulnerable part. His Adam's apple moved up and down, making a clear sound of water. He blinked, and a beautiful layer of red rose on his fair neck.
Sigourney chuckled in amusement: "Calculating the time, I haven't eaten for a long time. Next I will face a fierce battlefield..." He paused and announced, "Before leaving, I think I need to eat to replenish my energy."
Ash was stunned again: "Eat?"
Sigourney asked to eat?
Sigourney curled her lips and said, "I told you, if I'm hungry, I'll bite you."
Ash shook his head in disbelief. Yes, he did say that!
He was cheered up, and the previous loss and frustration were swept away by the surprise like a whirlwind.
When he came to his senses, he leaned into Sigourney's arms, tilting his head to reveal the graceful curve of his shoulders and neck, his invitation very obvious.
Sigourney couldn't help but chuckled twice, her voice was low and cool, like the night breeze playfully teasing her heartstrings and making them tremble slightly.
He didn't hesitate, he put his hand on the back of Ash's neck, stretched out his sharp vampire fangs, and bit into the big cake that was emitting a delicious aroma all the time.
Ash let out a short moan. His light blue eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and his fair face was stained with a beautiful blush, which was vivid and lively and extremely attractive.
In this position, his warm breath just hit behind Sigourney's ears. The long, thin, pointed ears were extremely sensitive, and were also burned with a layer of warm color by the high temperature.
Sigourney listened to Ash's subtle sounds, and her cold body seemed to heat up. Even her heart, which had long stopped beating, seemed to have the illusion of thumping.
I want this moment to last indefinitely.
The two people thought at the same time.
But in the end it is impossible.
Sigourney quickly retracted her fangs and used the tip of her tongue to heal the two small holes in the skin.
"Are you okay?" The vampire's voice was hoarse with satisfaction.
Ash, with weak hands and feet, lay in Sigourney's arms, hazily adapting to the gradually subsiding aftereffects. After a long while, he raised his flushed face and said, "No..." He looked at Sigourney's face, a little dazed.
Pale skin, light-colored lips. In the extremely bland colors, the only highlights are the dark red eyes and a bright stain of blood on the lips.
The strong contrast and impact of colors make this perfect face look even more thrilling.
That's his blood.
On Sigourney's lips.
Ash stared blankly, his mind blank except for the person in front of him. Before he could react, he had already stood on tiptoe, supported on Sigourney's chest, and kissed the vampire's bloody lips almost obsessively.
Sigourney seemed to be startled by his sudden approach. It was not until Ash came close to her that she suddenly came to her senses and tilted her head uncomfortably: "Hey..."
Ash's eyes fell on his lips, and his voice sounded as if he was sleepwalking: "It's still dirty."
Sigourney licked the blood subconsciously: "It's not dirty."
The blood on his lips was covered by a layer of moist water. Ash blinked and finally woke up. He stared at Sigourney's face in astonishment. All his previous memories came back in a short moment.
It seems like he has done something incredible again?!
Ash's hands that were holding onto Sigourney's chest suddenly loosened, and he slid down Sigourney's body. He squatted on the ground, holding Sigourney's strong long legs with both hands, using the force to support himself as he was about to fall. He buried his face between Sigourney's thighs, his heart beating like a drum...
He, he almost...
We almost kissed.
Sigourney's gaze fell on a point in the void, and she thought expressionlessly, just a little bit.
And what was the conversation just now?
It's just stupid.
——So stupid!
