Amidst the applause of congratulations and praise, Nance and Sigourney disappeared on the spot.
They teleported back to the third wizard tower.
"They are awesome!" Cook turned around excitedly, seeking the advice of his new partner, "Ash - Hey, Ash? Little brother?"
He looked around and lost sight of Ash in the excited crowd.
Being squeezed out?
He thought with regret, but the regret only lasted for a few seconds before it was immediately replaced by a more upbeat mood.
He! Is! Going! To! Get! Rich!
The first time I bought Mr. Nance’s victory, I did it by accident.
The second time, under Ash's guidance, he chose the one with the highest risk and the highest odds of winning within an hour.
All hits!
Stand up straight with pride!
Oh my god! He must be the luckiest guy here!
All the luck of the year has probably been used today!
Cook happily found his friend not far away and said, "Hey, what do you want to eat? I'll treat you today."
Then, he walked arm in arm with his friend who was in mixed feelings after losing the bet, and happily went to the casino to collect his money.
The disappeared Ash was now sitting in the small living room of the third wizard tower - Meng took him and followed Lord Nance's footsteps and teleported here.
It had been a long time since Ash last saw Mr. Nance. As soon as he saw the wise and elegant old man, he couldn't help but call him "Grandpa Nance" in a friendly manner.
Nan Si was happy and opened his arms to him: "Come and give grandpa a hug."
Sigourney twitched her lips, pulled Ash who was leaning against Nance's arms, and said to Nance unhappily, "He is not one of those four or five-year-old kids you usually tease."
"What's the matter?" Nance took the initiative to walk over, hugged Ash, raised his hand and rubbed his head, "It's great, wandering around with Sigourney, you've grown so much taller."
He looked at Mon. "It must be your credit, Mon. You took good care of Ash."
Meng was ashamed: "No, no."
Ash had always taken care of him. And it was only after Sigourney came back that he and Ash's daily routine gradually became regular.
As an adult, he is particularly unsuccessful in taking care of people!
Nance let go of Ash and patted Meng's shoulder, "Don't be so modest. If it's not you, then is it Sigourney? He can't even take care of himself."
"..." Sigourney listened expressionlessly, crossed her arms, and did not defend herself.
Meng felt really unworthy of the honor, so he simply brought up the example of how Sigourney disciplined him and Ash.
Ash nodded beside him as evidence.
Nance: "..." Nance looked at Sigourney in surprise, "You..."
"Shut up." As soon as Sigourney saw Nance, she knew he was going to say something unpleasant and disgusting, so she turned and walked out. "I'm tired. I'm going to rest."
Zhen strode away.
"Ah, he just can't get used to the atmosphere of reunion after a long separation." Nance smiled at Ash and Meng, "How insincere. It's okay for Ash to hug me like this."
Meng: “…” I didn’t see you dare to hug him.
Ash nodded, very understandingly: "Yeah, I know."
Nance's smile paused. You know, you know what? His wise eyes swept over Ash, and his smile rose again, even brighter: "Ash, you and Sigourney?"
Ash's eyes curved with joy: "We are together."
Meng: "..." Kids nowadays are so frank that it's scary. Does he know that he's meeting the parents?
The reaction of the parent Nans left Meng speechless.
Nan Si was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes: "Really? That's great! No wonder he can take care of others... He has grown up and matured a lot."
He pulled Ash to sit on the sofa and grumbled, "Sigourney has a bad temper, is willful and awkward. If you are angry with him, don't be polite, just beat him up. Although he has a bad temper, he will never fight back. He won't hit his own people. Also, he is soft-hearted, so if you are upset, remember to act pitiful, and he won't be so fierce..."
Meng listened with a frown on his face and sensed that Lord Nance was eager to pack up Sigourney and send her away.
Is Sigourney's market situation so bad?
Obviously, her face is very good, right?
Why does it feel like if Ash quits, the vampire will be alone?
But as he listened, he became fascinated.
Hmm, so there are other ways to deal with Sigourney? Let me teach you.
Ash listened quietly to Nance's endless sharing of his experience, then replied seriously: "Thank you, Mr. Nance. But Sigourney is very good to me, so these methods may not be useful." After saying that, he smiled shyly, revealing two shallow dimples.
Meng: “…” A familiar knowing blow.
He glanced at Nance out of the corner of his eye, and felt much better thinking that there was someone who shared his sadness.
Nance: “…” Nance did have mixed feelings.
Ash is a child blessed by the stars?
Sigourney is the one, right?
Otherwise, how could I meet such a good kid like Ash?
He wiped his eyes exaggeratedly, feeling very sad and relieved!
Meng looked at Nance and smiled with relief, then scratched his cheek in frustration. Why did Mr. Nance always react in an unpredictable way?
This is the first time I see someone eating dog food so happily.
"Come on, tell me, how have you been spending the past few months?" Nance asked Ash with a smile.
Ash started from the beginning with the three-tailed flower sea, and told Nance about their experiences during this period.
The important events during the period, such as the underground of the Snow Demon's Lair, the room full of murals of magical creatures, the fact that Rachel's wizard tower had belonged to Ash, and the fact that they had rescued the boy from the Prince family... Nance had already known about them from the occasional contacts. But even though he knew the general idea, he still wanted to hear Ash talk about it in detail. He found it very interesting to hear it again.
There were only two things that Sigourney didn't mention, and Ash didn't think it was necessary to mention them, so he hadn't told Nance before.
One is that Sigourney and Ash are together. Nance just found out about this.
Another point is that Sigourney sucked Ash's blood voluntarily and actively.
When hearing this, Nance's expression did not change, but deep in his light gray pupils, his pupils contracted violently, a sign of extreme shock.
Sigourney...is finally willing to extend his vampire fangs?
He tried countless methods but failed to help Sigourney overcome her shadow. Could Ash have done it?
His eyes flickered and fluctuated, but he did not interrupt Ash's words.
He continued to listen, gradually calming down his joy and excitement.
Then, he raised a gentle and comfortable smile again, looking at Ash with warm eyes, as if his hands had never trembled uncontrollably due to shock and excitement.
You can't lose your composure here.
There is no need to show your surprise and ecstasy.
For Sigourney and Ash, this matter was already a thing of the past. It was a small hurdle that Sigourney had stepped over, even though this hurdle had once been a barrier for Sigourney. It was the result of Ash's persistence, even though this result was a full ten years late before Ash came into being.
But that's all in the past.
Nance thought that he couldn't act surprised and bring up Sigourney's hatred for blood and vampires.
So he remained calm, just like Ash's calmness under the slight embarrassment when he talked about Sigourney sucking his blood.
It wasn't until Ash finished talking that he smiled slightly and said slowly, "Good boy."
Ash smiled happily, yet felt embarrassed after being praised.
"Ash!" Yelena's voice rang out from outside the small living room. "I heard from Selvi that Ash is back?"
Ash looked at Nance, who nodded at him, "Mr. Meng and I still have something to say. Ash, go meet them, they have been worried about you these past few months. Also, you have been promoted to a formal wizard, so let Yelena take you to the hall to test your level and exchange for an identity badge."
Ash responded, stood up and walked out. At the door, he ran into Yelena who was looking around. So he pushed her shoulder and walked away from the small living room. Then he walked to the corridor of the wizard tower and said with a smile, "Yelena, Brother Ivan, long time no see."
"Long time no see." Yelena laughed and reached out to touch Ash's hair. "I feel relieved to see you look so energetic. Hey, you've grown taller! And your hair is so long!"
Ivan stood beside Yelena, looking Ash up and down seriously, and then he relaxed his expression after confirming that Ash looked healthy and in good health. "Did you fall behind in your studies?"
Yelena punched her elder brother in the face and said, "This is such a bummer, isn't it? You're still remembering your lessons at this time?"
Ivan said in a deep voice: "Ash is almost seventeen. Last year, a sixteen-year-old was in the same grade as a ten-year-old. Do you think he will still be in the same grade as a ten-year-old when he is seventeen?"
"Wow, you actually cursed Ash to repeat a grade?!" Yelena looked at Ivan accusingly.
Ivan: "I didn't," he tried in vain to explain, "I didn't want it to happen."
"That's what you just meant!"
"I really don't."
Ash couldn't help but laugh out loud at their amusement.
"In fact, I am already a mid-level wizard," he said.
Ivan: “…”
Yelena: “…”
Ivan & Yelena: "What?!"
Under the intense gazes of the two, Ash repeated himself: "I am already a mid-level wizard."
Yelena, who was promoted to a mid-level wizard a few days ago, said: "No, don't joke. I won't make trouble for Ivan, okay? Don't use this method to help him out."
Ivan also frowned: "Tell the truth, Ash. If you fall behind in your studies, Yelena and I will make up for you."
Ash's lips opened and closed slightly, and the obscure syllables matched the auxiliary casting gestures on his hands -
"Third-ring magic, flying!" Ivan recognized it and whispered in disbelief.
Following his voice, Ash's feet left the ground and flew into the air, floating around in a small area, extremely agile.
Yelena's eyes widened: "Three rings? Three rings!" She was about to scream, "I only know the floating technique of two rings!"
Low-level wizards are able to construct first-ring magic.
Intermediate wizards are able to create second- and third-ring magic.
High-level wizards are able to construct fourth- and fifth-ring magic.
Six-ring magic is already within the scope of black-robed wizards and involves the personal field of magic.
What Yelena couldn't believe was that, as a mid-level wizard, she was still at the level of second-ring magic, while Ash had already learned third-ring magic and was closer to the realm of high-level wizard than she was!
It was obvious that a year ago, when she was a low-level wizard, Ash was not even a wizard apprentice!
Thinking about the little cutie who was full of yearning for magic and looked at her with sparkling eyes when she went to Duogu Village to pretend, and then looking at the big cutie in front of her who is taller than her and has better magic than her...
Yelena's eyes were dazed and she was devastated. She couldn't help but hug herself, who was weak, pitiful and helpless.
Am I just too useless, or is the reference object too outrageous?
As a mid-level wizard who was just one step away from being promoted to a higher level, Ivan silently held his stomach, feeling the pressure from the younger generation chasing him closely.
It takes effort.
My stupid sister has been surpassed by Ash, I can't end up like her.
He had to reach the high-level wizard before Ash.
A raging fire of fighting spirit ignited behind Brother Ivan.
Now that Ash is a mid-level wizard, the problem of schoolwork is easy to solve.
Ash didn't take the final exam last year, and this year's new semester is already more than halfway through. Under normal circumstances, the academy would normally expel him, after all, there are so many young wizards who want to enter the academy, and they don't need one with a bad attitude towards study.
But who could blame Ash for disappearing during a practical course arranged by the college?
As the party in the wrong, Ash still has his seat in the wizard apprentice class of the Brilliant Academy.
"But Ash doesn't have to go to the apprentice class anymore." Ivan said, "I'll contact the teacher tomorrow and have Ash transferred to our class."
Yelena nodded weakly: "Sure, transfer to the intermediate wizard class with me..."
Ivan suddenly realized: "Yes, Yelena, you have been going through the class transfer procedures these days? That's perfect, then you can take Ash with you to transfer classes."
Yelena: “…Oh.”
