After Ash joined the adventure team, Yolande explained his purpose.
The reason why Ash was suddenly invited was because they had accepted a mission from a wizard association and were about to set off for the Pale Throne.
"There are two missions for the Pale Throne," Yolande said. "One is to deliver an item to Prince Manor. The other is that there are unusual movements in the Undead Swamp in the Pale Throne territory. The owner of the nearby wizard tower is gathering people to prepare to explore. Of course, with our strength, we can't even think about entering the swamp. I've accepted the mission of patrolling outside."
"Both missions are on the same route." Ivan explained to Ash, "So just take them both."
Ash thought thoughtfully, was it just because it was on the way?
It must be said that at this point in time, when the Pale Throne was suddenly mentioned, he easily thought of the ruins of Dailan - the place where Sigourney and Uncle Meng decided to go was the abyss rift within the Pale Throne.
And the first mission just happened to be related to the Prince family...
He tilted his head suspiciously to look at Yolande, trying to find some clues from that gentle, smiling face.
Was it a coincidence that these two missions of the Pale Throne were chosen, or did this person already know something?
Ash had already felt deeply the thoroughness of Yolande's intelligence gathering.
It was not until they returned to the third wizard tower that Ash raised his doubts to Nance, and Nance smiled and told him that he could trust Yolande.
In other words, Yolande did choose these two tasks intentionally.
He gave Ash and Signy a legitimate reason to go to the Pale Throne.
It turns out that Brother Yolande is on the same side as them. Ash was thinking about it, and suddenly realized why he was with Sigourney. Yolande knew it immediately.
Because everyone in the Wizard Tower is an accomplice of Brother Yolande.
Ash stood in front of Nance's desk and glanced at the bright daily newspaper on the table. Nance tried to cover the words with a few books. It was covered very tightly, but Ash had just read today's newspaper. Even if he only saw a small corner of the newspaper, he could recite the content.
Nance noticed Ash's gaze and smiled calmly, "Just flipped through this old newspaper. I was just reading this to kill time."
Ash: "..." To be honest, it's today's portion, right?
He laughed secretly in his heart, pretended to be considerate and nodded seriously, as if he had been successfully fooled by Nance.
Nance breathed a sigh of relief, barely perceptible.
Fortunately, the upright and noble image of an elder was preserved.
He changed the subject with lingering fear: "Ash, when will your mission depart?"
Ash: "Early in the morning the day after tomorrow."
Nance pondered for a while, then stood up from behind his desk and walked to a row of bookshelves. He looked around for a moment before taking out two thick notebooks.
He walked up to Ash, placed the notebook on the table, and pushed it in Ash's direction.
"It's not a hasty farewell to Duogu Village. Do you remember what I said to you when we first met?" Nance looked at Ash gently.
The first time they met was at the Rock, after he and Sigourney swapped bodies.
Ash remembered it vividly.
"I remember." I remember every word.
Nance smiled and said, "At that time I said that if you become a formal wizard, I can accept you as a student if you are willing. Now I ask you again, are you willing to be my student?"
Ash also laughed and replied firmly, "I will!"
When they met for the first time, Mr. Nance's wisdom and insight as an astrologer aroused his infinite yearning for astrologers.
"Teacher." Ash's eyes sparkled as he called out this new title with respect and excitement.
Nance's face turned slightly red after being struck by Ash's eyes, and he immediately raised his hand and touched his chest... Oh my God, he felt such a sense of accomplishment!
How lucky was he to meet such a well-behaved and talented student?
It must be that God couldn't bear to see him being tortured by that brat Sigourney, so he sent Ash, this little cotton-padded jacket, to compensate him, right?
After a light cough and gathering his thoughts, Nance said solemnly, "You are now a mid-level wizard. It is time to decide on your future development direction. I think your choice is astrology, right?"
Ash nodded.
As long as he can remember, the stars have been accompanying him. The stars' companionship is not silent, they have been talking to him, but he just can't understand. If you become an excellent astrologer, you will know what the stars are saying to you, you will be able to talk to the stars, understand their thoughts and respond.
"I want to be an astrologer." Ash said seriously.
"You will be." Nance said almost admiringly, "There is no one better than you to be an astrologer."
He pointed at the notebook on the table and said, "You are about to leave the royal city. I can't be by your side to teach you. You should study these two notebooks carefully. They can pave a straight path for you to astrology."
He said: "Of course, if you have any doubts in your studies, remember to contact me at any time. Although I can't go with you, I can still provide remote guidance."
Ash picked up the notebook and held it in his arms, cherishing it: "I will study hard. Thank you, teacher."
Nance suddenly felt relieved that he had a successor.
It turns out that finding a reliable student is such a refreshing thing.
He waved his hand with a smile: "I know how self-conscious Ash is. Let's just look through it for the next two days. Everything is difficult at the beginning. If you have any questions, let's solve them before we leave."
Ash nodded, holding two heavy notebooks, and walked out of Nance's study.
After walking out of the study, he resisted the urge to immediately open the notebook to read and study - he knew that if he started reading now, he would definitely get addicted and unable to extricate himself.
He still has an appointment with Sigourney.
I'd better go back and tidy up the room first, then I can look at it slowly without distraction.
He walked briskly towards the room, and as he walked, he asked Selvi, the alchemist of the wizard tower, "Is Signy in the room?"
"Yes," said Servi in a gorgeous baritone. He added, "He's trying to tidy up the room."
Ash didn't notice the word "trying" in Selvi's words, but only noticed the words "tidying up the room", so he quickened his pace: "He has already started? Why doesn't he wait for me?"
He quickly returned to the bedroom, and the moment he pushed the door open, he was still hoping that Sigourney would move slower and not finish the room too quickly, so that he could also help.
Ash always gets what he wants.
So when he pushed open the door, the room before him was not only not tidy, but even more messy and terrible.
In other words, before, only Sigourney's room was messy, but now this mess has broken through the boundaries of the original room and spread to Ash's room.
Ash stared at the mess of papers scattered on the floor, which looked like a hurricane had broken into the room and raged. He looked at Sigourney blankly, wondering how she could do this.
Sigourney, who had completely given up and was lying on the small sofa with her long limbs hanging limply, said: "..." He didn't know how he did it.
Thinking of the meaningful look in Nance's eyes and the words "thank you for your hard work" after he told him that he and Sigourney would tidy up the room, Ash seemed to understand something. He tried hard to suppress the corners of his lips that wanted to curl up: "Let me do it."
Sigourney: “…”
Sigourney did not object.
He couldn't refute it.
