Nance cleverly arranged Ash's room next to Sigourney's.
"It hasn't been long since Ash recovered, and you've already ruined him again!"
"The reason why those secret alliance members of the Fake Scarlet One attacked on the train was entirely because of you, right?"
"You brought about this disaster, and in the end, Ash is the one who sacrificed himself?"
"Sigourney, don't you feel pain when you touch your conscience?"
Once again, he felt heartbroken and suppressed Sigourney's objection, which had not yet been expressed.
Sigourney said nothing, looked at Nance coldly for a minute before slamming the door and leaving.
Nance touched his little heart that was about to stop beating under Sigourney's freezing gaze, and breathed a sigh of relief. Done!
As the saying goes, the one who is close to the water gets the moon first. I heard from Yelena that Ash actually likes Sigourney, a bad tempered girl? He even confessed his feelings? He even touched her... well, I won't mention this. Anyway, it seems promising?
Nance was deeply comforted. If it could give Sigourney a little bit of vitality, he would be willing to marry her off!
And recently, Sigourney has indeed become more lively than before. He thought that she even glared at him more often.
If it works after personal testing, we will keep trying.
——With this, Ash successfully settled down next door to Sigourney.
During the few days that Ash was recuperating, Yelena helped take care of him. Sigourney would occasionally wander into his room and stare at him, with an inexplicable look in her eyes.
It is said that she would take a book and sit in his room for a long time all night long - when Ash was sleeping, Sigourney was awake. The schedules of humans and vampires are generally opposite.
The reason why it is said is that Sigourney goes to Ash's room every night when he is asleep, and leaves in the early morning when Ash is still asleep.
Ash knew that Sigourney had come over at night because Yelena had secretly told him. By the way, Sigourney had confiscated a large number of her novels and seemed to be reading them every night.
Nance sighed that Sigourney was using Ash to exercise her willpower. However, Ash thought that was not the case. It was because Sigourney was upset about his injury that she stayed with him every night. Sigourney rejected Nance's suggestion of "why don't you take care of Ash yourself?" and expressed her guilt to this extent.
The awkward Sigourney is also quite interesting.
Ash thought so and fell asleep peacefully every night, without any thought of pretending to sleep and taking a look at Sigourney.
If she pretended to be asleep, she would definitely be discovered. If she was discovered, Sigourney would definitely run away and never come back.
If coming to see him every night would help Sigourney feel less guilty, then she might as well keep seeing him.
So Ash still pretended that he didn't know, fell asleep as usual, and woke up as usual. However, in his dream, he seemed to sense that Sigourney was not far away, so even the dream became extremely peaceful and beautiful.
In the Third Wizard Tower, the quantity and quality of both wizards and potions are countless times higher than those in Stone Castle.
As a result, Ash's more serious injuries healed even faster than they had in Rock Castle.
On the fourth day, he was able to walk on his own.
It was also on this day that Nance called him to the study again.
When he walked to the door of the study, he saw Sigourney coming out of the study.
"Sigourney." His eyes sparkled.
Sigourney paused, nodded to him, looked at him with a mysterious look, and passed him by.
Ash tilted his head in confusion to watch him leave, what happened?
Sigourney could feel the boy's gaze staring at her from behind, and she suddenly recalled the conversation she had with Nance in the study just now.
Yelena and Ivan might have overlooked it - on the train, Ash was the first to notice that something was wrong with Little Silverfish - it was normal for them to overlook it, after all, after all, there were many twists and turns afterwards, and the two of them really faced the crisis of death.
But he always remembered and realized the key.
Just now, somehow, I happened to talk about this with Nance.
Nan Si smiled and said, "Isn't this natural? He is a young man blessed by the stars."
"The opening of Broken River Plains broke the delicate balance that Iluf had formed for a long time. After that, the trajectory of the stars disappeared into chaos, the direction of fate was intertwined and confused, and it was unknown what was waiting for the wizards and where the magical creatures would go." Fate Weaver, Gray Robe Wizard Nans predicted, "In this chaos, perhaps only this boy can find the path to light."
He questioned, isn’t this expectation too high?
Nance just said that he deserved it.
"He has a pair of eyes that can see through fate." Nance said again with certainty, "Because the stars favor him."
He was speechless. Because he remembered the many times before this, when he was stared at by Ash's eyes. Straightforward, pure, clear, and frank, indeed... it was like a gaze that could see through everything. That was why he couldn't help but feel irritated and anxious.
Sigourney turned the corner of the corridor, and the sight following behind her was finally blocked by the wall.
He paused and found that he had subconsciously held his breath during the journey just now.
Why was he holding his breath? What the hell was this a reflex? Was he afraid of that little devil?
“…”
Ash Elwyn is simply toxic!
Sigourney, whose face turned blue with anger at her own inexplicable subconscious reaction, clenched her fists, punched the wall next to her hard, and then strode away.
After he left, the wall that was hit with a hole in it slowly repaired itself with a grievance, and then ran to Nans to complain.
At this time, Ash, who was sitting in Nance's study, heard a sad and gorgeous baritone with Nance: "Mr. Nance, your magic material, Signy, damaged public property thirty seconds ago, and you need to deduct one thousand points."
Sigourney was fine when she left just now? Nance glanced at Ash and suddenly understood: "...Dunk it."
"Okay. Deduct one thousand points from Lord Nance." The baritone sighed, "Sigourney has damaged public property 12,300 times so far. I hope Lord Nance will keep a close eye on his magic materials."
Nance said dryly: "...I'll try my best."
The baritone disappeared from the study.
"It's the alchemical life form of the third wizard tower." Nance slowed down and explained to Ash, "It's a high-level alchemical life form named Selvi. You can try to make friends with him."
"Hello, Ash. I like well-behaved children like you." The baritone voice echoed in the study again. "I'm happy to be your friend."
Ash looked around curiously, not sure where to look to reply politely.
“He’s everywhere in this wizard tower,” Nance said.
Ash then looked at the wall in front of him seriously: "Hello, nice to meet you, Selvi."
Selvi let out a few happy laughs: "What a cute child."
"Okay." Nans said seriously, "Selvi, please leave for a while. Seal this room."
"Okay." Selvi agreed, but her voice became sad again. "Sir Nance, since you just drove me away when you talked to Sigourney, and now you want to abandon me again, I feel very disappointed."
"You can tell by the sound." Nans was used to it and continued to stab Servi. "You better leave quickly. After you leave, I have to set up a blockade barrier."
"You are insulting my ability." Selvi was very sad. "Under my blockade, no one can spy on the secrets of this room!"
"Oh." Nance smiled, "Thank you. Please seal the room."
"No wonder you were able to teach a magical material like Sigourney!" Selvi left angrily.
As Nance said, after Selvi sealed the study, he also set up shielding magic himself to prevent the scenes and sounds in the study from being eavesdropped by outsiders.
Ash was also extremely confused when he saw Nance making such a big fuss.
"Anything to do?"
Nance smiled at him reassuringly, "You came to Iluv to learn magic, right?"
Ash nodded.
"The polar night is coming soon." Nans said, "A week before the polar night comes, the wizard academy in the Brilliant Royal City will open and recruit a new batch of wizard seedlings."
Ash's eyes widened in surprise, had he arrived so just in time?
"Yes, lucky little guy." Nance smiled, "I plan to send you to wizard school, are you willing?"
Ash nodded vigorously, "I do. Thank you, Lord Nance!"
"But when entering the academy, one will first be tested to see if they have wizarding talent."
"I do." Ash nodded affirmatively.
Nance laughed, "Are you so confident?" He laughed for a while, then shook his head, "I believe you have it, too. And you have a great talent. But maybe it's too great. In order not to attract some undue attention, let's test it in advance today. Knowing the results in advance will help us take precautions in advance. In case there are problems on the scene, there will be too many people talking and it will be difficult to cover up."
Ash was stunned when he heard this. Did he sound like he was really great?
Is his talent as great as Mr. Nance said? Is it so great that it needs to be concealed?
But Lord Nance was thinking about him anyway, so Ash naturally agreed.
Nance took out a round crystal and placed it on the table. The crystal was flawless and round, about the size of an egg and could be held in one hand.
“Hold it,” Nance said. “Look at it and don’t look away. Feel it and let the hidden rules within it reveal themselves to you.”
Ash took note of Nance's words, reached for the crystal, and looked down at it.
At just one glance, one could see that inside the originally flawless crystal, there was a miniature version of a brilliant galaxy hanging upside down. Azure blue, red, gray-brown, emerald green, indigo, silver... it was a collection of brilliant colors, incredibly beautiful.
Ash asked hesitantly, "Is this what it is?"
Nance: “…Yes.” His voice was dry and his light grey pupils dilated unconsciously, and it took a while for them to slowly return to normal.
He anticipated the terrifying power of Ash's talent, but he didn't expect that its terrifying degree would far exceed his imagination.
Perfect talent!
