Reunion with Senior Sister Fei'er
This is a ten-meter-high Magic Tower situated on a gentle green plain.
The Magic Tower is not very tall, seemingly only three stories high, and its overall color is dark gray, which suits the atmosphere of the Black Domain.
Outside the Magic Tower, on the plain, a small river, a dozen meters wide, flows gently.
Coupled with the lush green meadows in the distance, it creates a truly poetic scene.
The Magic Tower in front of them is one of the two locations on Moduolong Island recorded on the Magic Map that Saine obtained from the Snella Family.
In other words, it is very likely that Zorro, Saine's senior brother, or Fei'er, his senior sister, live here.
The beautiful scenery and clear waters around him made it hard for Saine to associate them with his senior brother Zorro.
In Saine's memory, his senior brother Zorro was a quiet and reliable person.
If Zorro were to choose, the opponent probably wouldn't choose this place as their Magic Tower.
Furthermore, Saine did not detect any aura belonging to Formal-Ranked Magician around this Magic Tower.
This is a seemingly ordinary Magic Tower... although Saine also noticed that the tower was engraved with some magical restrictions, including concealment, reflection, and detection.
But these magical restrictions were useless against Saine because they were all too rudimentary.
I wonder if Saine's appearance has caught the attention of the Magic Tower's master.
After taking a deep breath, Saine landed in front of the Magic Tower, stepped onto the stone steps in front of the door, and gently knocked on the door.
"Ah!" A piercing scream came from the stone slab beneath Saine's feet.
The once ordinary gray-white stone slab now had a huge mouth split open in the middle, and it looked like it was about to bite Saine.
The jaws, large enough to crush the spine of an ordinary creature below level one, ultimately didn't even tear Saine's black Magic Robe.
This black Magic Robe was Magic Conductor that Saine made for himself before leaving the Azure Source Holy Tower. Saine's tailoring skills were not good, and the Magic Robe did not look very beautiful overall.
However, the protective power of the entire Magic Robe is enough to demonstrate the profound skill of a first-class outstanding alchemist.
Even the raw materials used to sew this Magic Robe came from a rare, first-class otherworldly creature— the Black Scale Pangolin.
Besides the Gray Stone Slab beneath his feet tearing at Saine's Magic Robe, a series of magical restrictions, including Flame Ray, were also aimed at Saine.
It seems that Saine's senior sister, Fei'er, is still prone to impulsiveness.
Of course, it's also possible that Moduolong Island is not peaceful, and this is Fei'er's way of protecting herself.
Saine had no intention of destroying his senior sister's Magic Tower.
Regardless of whether Fei'er has advanced a level or not, she is still his senior sister.
Not to mention, in addition to the ordinary senior-junior relationship, Saine also has a closer bond with her.
The commotion outside the Magic Tower was quite significant; those inside must have noticed the visitors.
Soon, a deep, neutral voice came from the loudspeaker in front of the Magic Tower: "Who is it?"
This voice wasn't the voice of his senior sister, Fei'er, from Saine memories; he guessed it was some kind of Voice Alteration Technique.
At this moment, Saine was still wearing his black Magic Robe and hood.
He pulled down his hood, revealing a head of short, golden hair.
Saine then removed his Azure Fire Eye Mask, revealing a handsome and composed face behind it.
When Saine and Fei'er parted ways, Sain was about eighteen years old.
Now, having advanced one level, Saine's appearance has stabilized at that of someone in their twenties.
Although there have been changes over the past few years, the overall situation has not changed much.
Especially with Saine's demeanor and eyes, Fei'er had thoroughly examined Saine back then, so she certainly wouldn't mistake him.
After pulling down the hood and removing the mask, a long silence clearly fell over the Magic Tower in front of them.
The gray-white stone slab beneath Saine's feet, which had been tearing at him, had somehow returned to its original state, and all the magical restrictions that had been activated had also disappeared.
"You... you wait for me a moment..." After a long while, a rather flustered voice finally came from the communication device in front of the Magic Tower.
This time, the voice truly belonged to his senior sister, Fei'er.
But unlike her youthful and beautiful voice in the past, Fei'er's voice now sounds more mature, even sophisticated.
The overall tone of his voice has become much deeper.
Without being urged, Saine waited quietly at the door.
How many years has it been since he last saw his senior sister?
It's been at least thirty years!
Even Saine himself is already over fifty years old this year, and his senior sister Fei'er is probably even older.
When Mage are exploring the Truth, they rarely notice the passage of time, especially Mage of level one and above, whose lifespans are often close to a thousand years, which is enough to support them in completing the vast majority of their theoretical research.
However, if it's those magic apprentices who haven't advanced a level...
One hundred or two hundred years is already the limit of their lifespan after using various life-extending methods.
Saine still has great anticipation and expectation for reuniting with Fei'er from the world.
But for some reason, even though he was already standing in front of his senior sister's door, a sense of bewilderment suddenly arose deep in his heart.
Saine didn't know if his senior sister felt the same way, but judging from her silence, absent-mindedness, and panic just now, she clearly did.
Fei'er didn't keep Saine waiting for long.
In total, there are only twenty hourglasses.
The door opened softly, and when Saine looked up, he saw Fei'er, dressed in a white dress, with a look of joy and excitement on her face.
Upon seeing his senior sister Fei'er again, Saine's face revealed undisguised excitement.
However, after the initial excitement, what made Saine feel a little down, or rather, a little heartbroken, was that his senior sister Fei'er, had not yet advanced a level.
The once delicate and smooth skin has now become noticeably dry and wrinkled.
However, she is still very fair-skinned overall. This is not because Fei'er has a special constitution, but because Fei'er must have done some remedial measures for her skin during the twenty hourglasses that Saine was waiting for.
A faint, pleasant fragrance wafted through the air; Fei'er must have been wearing perfume.
These perfumes contain certain Magic Potion ingredients, and coincidentally, after meeting Merri at the Dawn Holy Tower, Saine gained a greater interest in the field of potion-making.
If Saine's judgment is correct, these Magic Potion should be specifically designed to stimulate cell vitality and maintain the skin's whiteness and smoothness.
Male Mage like Saine rarely use these things, but among female Mage who love beauty, such potions are very popular.
Everyone gets old; no one can change that.
Even for Level-1 Magician like Saine, if he reaches the age of seven or eight hundred and still cannot break through to the second level, his appearance will inevitably undergo a great change.
When he reaches around nine hundred years old, he will probably become an old man.
This is the most fundamental law of biological evolution and growth.
The only difference is that Saine is still young, and he has plenty of time to squander.
But her senior sister seems to have lost her youth.
"I'm getting old, aren't I?" Fei'er touched her cheek and asked Saine.
"No, not at all," Saine replied with a deep breath, and stepped forward to gently hug Fei'er.
At this moment, Fei'er, dressed in a white dress, is just like the most beautiful impression that Saine remembers of his senior sister.
Actually, nothing has changed.
