Departure
The day that Saine decided to leave the Azure Source Holy Tower to travel seemed very abrupt.
Because he had not leaked any information to the outside world before this.
Including the night before, he had been intimately entangled with Serena.
Two days ago, he went to Irene's place.
Although Saine never revealed his Travel Plan to Serena and the others, on the day Saine packed all his things, Serena very obediently prepared an incredibly lavish meal for him.
I wonder if this is the last time Saine will eat at Serena's restaurant.
The time that Saine spent traveling this time was definitely not just a few months or a few years.
It takes at least ten years, and in some cases it can take decades or even longer.
The Wizard World is so vast and boundless that even for a Level-1 Magician like Saine, traveling to most parts of the Wizard World would be a huge undertaking.
Not to mention, the Western Islands are separated from the Azure Source Holy Tower where Saine is currently located by countless miles.
Besides the countless forces and special regions that Saine needs to pass through, there are two vast oceans that Saine needs to cross: the South Sea and the Western Sea.
Serena is currently considered to be at an above-average level among Quasi-Magician.
But this doesn't mean Serena will definitely be promoted one level.
If one cannot advance to the next level, the short lifespan of a magic apprentice, only about a hundred years, is incomparable to the nearly thousand-year lifespan possessed by Saine.
Serena may have realized this, so after spending most of the day preparing a feast for Saine that couldn't even hold all the food, she couldn't help but shed tears.
My Cousin Serena's personality is ultimately too soft; she lacks that toughness and confidence.
Anna, the friend I met during Saine apprenticeship, was somewhat reckless in her first attempt to become Formal Magician, which ultimately led to her failure.
However, Saine observed that his opponent was not too discouraged, but rather made full preparations for a second attempt to reach the top tier.
Anna should be trying to break through again in the next two years, given her outstanding talent and performance during her apprenticeship, plus excellent family support and resources.
Anna Jones ' success rate in advancing to the next level is approximately 80%.
Saine, of course, noticed the tears welling in Serena's eyes. He didn't immediately indulge in the sumptuous meal; instead, he put down his knife and fork, sat down beside Serena, and gently put his arm around her shoulder. "While I'm gone, I'm entrusting everything in the lab to you," Saine said.
Faced with Saine's instruction, Serena hurriedly wiped away her tears and nodded hastily in agreement.
Entrusting Serena with the care of his lab was actually a sign of Saine's trust in her.
Of course, this move also has another meaning: it allows Serena to use any instruments and tools in Saine Laboratory at will.
With a soft sigh, Saine continued, "I hope that when I return, I will see you have advanced one level."
Saine's words stunned Serena.
In fact, over the years, Saine has never forced Serena to do anything.
Even when teaching Serena about elements and Alchemy Experiment, Saine always looked at her with a calm or encouraging gaze, never criticizing Serena for her mistakes or clumsiness.
That's why Serena has lived a very comfortable life with Saine all these years.
Faced with Saine's first and most explicit "request" or "expectation," Serena paused for a moment, then nodded emphatically.
Serena's performance brought a smile to Saine's face.
Saine said gently, "Alright, let's eat."
When Saine left the Azure Source Holy Tower, it caused virtually no ripples.
The main reason is that Saine is rather solitary. Although he has gotten to know many Holy Tower Magician over the years, he has not held any special banquets before setting off on his travels like other Mage.
Unlike Serena's well-behaved and sensible nature, Irene complained a lot about Saine before he left.
If Saine had told me this earlier, Irene would most likely have gone on a trip with Saine.
But since Saine didn't say anything, Irene guessed that this little man she couldn't quite figure out didn't want her to go with him.
Furthermore, Irene still has a contract period of several decades with the Holy Tower. Unless she applies to the Holy Tower in advance, she generally cannot leave the Holy Tower for more than ten years without a valid reason.
As a disciple of the Tower Master, Saine had naturally already completed all the formalities.
Furthermore, because Saine joined the Azure Source Holy Tower as Advanced Apprentice, his Magic Contract with the Azure Source Holy Tower was far less stringent than that of other Mage.
Besides Serena and Irene, another person who silently watched over Saine and saw him off as he left the Azure Source Holy Tower was the Level-4 Magician, Luluman.
The Holy Tower Master sat atop the Holy Tower, his gaze somewhat languid as he watched Saine's figure disappear into the southern horizon.
In fact Luluman has already given Saine most of the advice he could.
She also gave Saine a batch of life-saving items— Green Source Seed.
Saine still has hundreds of those Green Source Seed, among which the most precious milky-white seed has remained unused to this day.
That milky-white seed was a premium product cultivated by the Luluenman World Laboratory.
Over the years, only two have been cultivated in the entire World Laboratory. One of them was given to Saine for protection, which shows how much Tower Master Luluman cares for her disciple.
With this trump card, plus the fact that Saine is generally a worry-free player.
Luluman wasn't worried about Saine's safety at all; she was only Saine about when Sain would return.
Furthermore, what dangers might exist within the Wizard World?
"The prosperous and dazzling Wizard World awaits your exploration. I hope you will bring me some surprises when you return."
"And I should continue my experiments," Luluman said softly, then turned and swayed her hips as she walked towards her laboratory.
Although he appeared somewhat alone when he left the Azure Source Holy Tower.
But in fact, Saine's journey ahead is not lonely.
Owl Little Qi flew out of the Space Flute early on, and as Saine left the Azure Source Holy Tower, Little Seven also revealed its true nature.
As a bird of prey, the vast sky is the stage for Little Seven to soar.
For Mage like Saine, the Azure Source Holy Tower offers a rich learning and research environment.
But for a magical beast like Little Seven, it felt rather cramped and dull.
Over the years, Saine has made quite a few friends among the Holy Tower Magician, but Little Seven has only a handful of friends.
Aside from occasionally looking at Saine's Living Specimen or playing with the animated fairies that Serena kept, Little Seven usually finds a comfortable place to sleep.
By the way, it seems that Little Seven and Green's Soul Pet parrot have become good friends.
It's unclear whether the Azure Source Holy Tower was too boring for them, but these two birds with completely different personalities actually became friends.
