Dinner wasn't lavish, but it was very cozy. →

Owl Little Qi is also extremely clever and sensible. When Saine and Irene were having sex, this guy had already hidden in his own Cultivation Room.

And when the aroma of food wafts through the room, it appears quietly without you even noticing.

"How long will your recovery period last?" Saine asked Irene, who was sitting next to him, during the meal.

"I have one more month, how about you?" Irene replied.

"I'm on leave for two months, but I can end my recovery early and join you on combat missions," Saine said.

"Okay." Irene's face clearly showed a hint of joy.

Because they had established an extremely close relationship, Saine and Irene were also much more concerned about each other's safety.

Especially on this chaotic and perilous battlefield, Saine and Ellie had experienced great danger, so they did not let their guard down just because the overall situation of the battle in the Poison Fire Green Flame World had become clearer.

Only those at level four or above, like Instructor Saine Luluman, are qualified to breathe a sigh of relief now.

Even though the overall battle is about to end, the relaxed atmosphere doesn't belong to Level-1 Magician like Saine, who are at the very bottom of the Plane War.

After spending another month inside the Space Fortress, Saine and Irene joined forces to carry out the war mission issued by the fortress.

Based on their relationship, Saine could have also invited the Level-1 Magician, Sylph.

However, with Irene by his side, Saine ultimately gave up on the plan.

The small group of three Level 1 creatures— Saine, Irene, and Owl Little Qi —cooperated quite well during the Poison Fire Green Flame World War.

The large-scale battle has now come to a temporary end. Judging from the combat missions recently released by the fortress, Saine and his men will be patrolling mainly in the eastern and southern directions.

It seems that the main battleground for the fortress will be in these two directions.

In the third month of his mission with Saine, Saine received a summons from his mentor Irene, Luluman.

This was the first time Saine had received a summons from his mentor since arriving at the Poison Fire Green Flame World Battlefield.

It wasn't that Luluman forgot about Saine, but rather that Luluman, as Sain's mentor, was even busier Saine.

At least Saine gets a month or two of rest after every few months of combat missions.

As Level-4 Magician commanding a vast main battlefield in the Plane War, where would Luluman find time to rest?

Saine met Luluman in a room at the top of the fortress. It was then that Saine realized that his mentor's room was actually not far from him.

However, Luluman probably doesn't live here normally, as Saine didn't see any personal belongings in the room.

As Level-4 Magician, Luluman most often appears in the Main Control Room and various command rooms of the Space Fortress.

"It's been several years since we last met. Seeing how much you've grown, I'm relieved," said Luluman, a hint of fatigue in her eyes. However, she still perked up and smiled when she saw Saine.

"It is also thanks to the mentor's proper guidance. If it weren't for the Green Source Seed you gave me, I might have perished in the battle at the Fortress Main Base a few years ago," Saine replied respectfully.

Luluman also remembered the battle at the Fortress Main Base that Saine mentioned.

That should be the only major war in the Poison Fire Green Flame World War where the Construct Golem Legion surrounded the Wizard World Space Fortress and almost broke through its defenses.

It was during that war that Luluman, as Level-4 Magician, made a bold move and summoned a forbidden spell in the Poison Fire Green Flame World.

To this day, the lingering effects of the forbidden spell still resonate in the West Continent of the Poison Fire Green Flame World.

This gives a glimpse into the terrifying power possessed by Level-4 Magician.

After acknowledging Saine's performance and growth in recent years, Luluman pondered for a moment, and then, in her personal capacity as a mentor, told Saine a secret that an ordinary Mage would never know.

"Your grandmaster will soon return to the Poison Fire Green Flame World. At that time, we will also launch a general offensive against the native creatures and Construct Golem Legion of the Poison Fire Green Flame World."

"This period of time won't be too long. You can take some time to rest and recuperate to prepare for the upcoming battle," Luluman instructed.

"Yes." Saine was taken aback for a moment, then answered respectfully.

The strength of Luluman and Gagaru, who are level four or Level-5 Magician in the Wizard World, is already extremely exaggerated. Presumably, the power of their ancestor Cuilisi, must be even more astonishing.

The Poison Fire Green Flame World War has been going on for more than five years now. Is it finally coming to an end?

This was significantly faster than the originally planned war schedule.

But why does Saine feel that a considerable amount of time has passed?

Furthermore, there are likely quite a few Mage share the same idea as Saine.

"Don't reveal the news of your grandmaster's return to the Poison Fire Green Flame World Battlefield for now. This is still the highest level of secrecy in our Wizard Civilization Legion, and even many Level-3 Magician are unaware of it," Luluman said.

"Yes," Saine replied respectfully again.

Besides instructing Saine on these matters, Luluman then asked Saine about his progress in his magical research over the past few years.

Luluman's previous understanding of Saine mainly came from Saine's mission performance over the past few years.

Every mission that Saine carried out and every battle he participated in was recorded in the Crystal Ball and the Garrison Mission Center.

No wonder Luluman praised Saine for his significant growth when they first met.

Saine's magical research in recent years has not made much progress. The only thing he has devoted a lot of energy to is the initial application of the Azure Fire Magic.

Unfortunately, Luluman really had nothing to teach Saine about the art of Azure Fire Magic.

Aside from offering some guidance on broader Truth and mysteries, Saine planned to ask her mentor Cuilisi, for more detailed knowledge of Luluman Azure Fire Magic after she returned to the Poison Fire Green Flame World on behalf of her disciple.

"I think those blue flame patterns you drew on your body are worth studying, because I remember that my senior brothers and sisters made similar attempts back then."

"The path to Truth ultimately depends on your own journey. A mentor can only offer guidance and reminders within the scope of their abilities," Luluman said.

"Yes," Saine replied again.

The conversation between Saine and Luluman, master and apprentice, lasted only two hours.

But Saine still benefited greatly from it.

Besides knowing that his master Cuilisi, was about to return to the Poison Fire Green Flame World, Saine's greatest gain was the guidance his mentor Luluman, gave him on some broad points of knowledge.

Saine has only recently been promoted to the next level, and his foundation is still relatively weak.

Although Luluman didn't offer him much substantial insight into the path of Azure Fire Magic, her mentor's earnest teachings made Saine feel that the road ahead was much brighter and wider.
