Late at night, the candle lights in the bedroom were still on.
Sylutia sat on the chair and slowly looked through the notes he had taken over the past few months. Juanxiu's handwriting was neat and clear, and various knowledge points were arranged clearly.
While reading, she recalled, occasionally putting down her notes and looking at the night outside.
There is a pale moon in the sky, and on such a quiet night, you can hear the gentle sound of the wind, which is particularly soft and quiet.
When a person becomes familiar with a certain kind of life and environment, it is inevitable that he will have feelings for it.
She only lived in Quebes for 4-5 months, but she also developed a slight attachment to her. Even if she was not a real family member, this kind of family environment made her feel a little nostalgic.
The separation is doomed, and all she can do now is to savor this emotion carefully before leaving.
Holding the book in her arms, she slowly leaned back on the chair. Her long, light black hair was pressed behind her waist, and a little bit fell down, elongating her shadow in the candlelight.
The next day, Sylutia came to Lighthouse with her packed suitcase. Behind her were the Griffin family, Rosalie and Vierluna who came to see her off.
Nodding to everyone, she opened the door under Lighthouse and walked in.
Not long after, sharp birdsong came from the distant sky.
A huge white and gray falcon descended from the sky and swooped down. It cut through a long trail of airflow and descended at a speed visible to the naked eye. On the eve of reaching Lighthouse, it spread its wings and slowed down. The flapping airflow overflowed, blowing the clothes of the people waiting outside the tower to flutter and retreating continuously.
This huge falcon stood waiting at the top of the tower, and soon Knox appeared in a wheelchair, with Sylutia following behind him.
Under the curious gaze of the girl, Knox buried his entire wrist in the thick feathers and stroked the huge falcon for a while, then turned around and introduced it to Sylutia.
"It's called "Nate". It's a little bird I adopted before, but it's grown up now."
Is this a little bird? The girl secretly complained in her heart, but she also observed the other person carefully.
[Wind-Feather Great Falcon](Level 3·Vaulted Sky); Soar is a bird of prey in the sky with excellent flying ability. It is said that high-level individuals can travel Cloud Sea alone and travel between different continents.
"It will take you to the Mage Alliance, and I have two letters here. One letter you give to Mage named Chidi in the border city, and the other letter you keep for now, and later give it to the master Glando of "Bionics School" depending on the situation."
"I have already told Chidi about you. He will help you go through the procedures and let you enter Academy District normally. If you encounter difficulties in the Mage Alliance in the future, you can also ask him for help. However, his strength is limited, so it is best not to embarrass him too much."
"I have another box here for you. There are some things I gave you in it. Keep it well." After saying that, he took out a small suitcase from under the wheelchair and handed it to Sylutia.
"Thank you, teacher."
Half an hour later, under the guidance of Knox, Sylutia tied the saddle on the giant falcon and sat on it.
At this time, Knox waved to her from below, and then the giant falcon under Sylutia rose up from the ground, allowing the girl to rise into the air before she could say hello.
After flapping her wings only twice, Sylutia found herself getting farther and farther away from the earth. The few little people under the white Lighthouse waved to her, but their words were scattered in the wind and could not be heard clearly.
The giant falcon carried her on its back, flying higher and higher, and the wind in the sky became stronger and stronger.
Sylutia watched the giant falcon plunge into the clouds, a burst of water mist passed by, and then shuttled out. At this time, it no longer continued to climb, but kept moving forward at a steady speed.
It's so high. Holding the saddle on the back of the giant falcon, Sylutia carefully turned his head and looked at the world below. From here, you can clearly see the dividing line between Meteor Lake and the earth. One side is as blue as a mirror, and the other side, after a small amount of sand-yellow transition, is the stretching turquoise earth.
As the giant falcon continued to move forward, the Meteor Lake behind it gradually disappeared, and tall mountains and wilderness appeared below.
After half a day, Sylutia saw that the sun in the distance gradually became even with the clouds, and was filled with golden light, making the originally empty and single sky become multi-layered. The intersection of gold and red gave birth to thousands of layers of orange, red, and yellow, just like the paint spread out by an oil painting.
Slowly, the giant falcon gradually descended. At this time, Sylutia could slowly see the buildings on the ground. Different from the white bricks and orange tiles on the Meteor Lake beach, the buildings here were obviously taller and more complicated.
At this time, the big falcon under her body passed sideways through the canyon between the mountain peaks. A burst of cold air hit her face, which shocked the girl's spirit. Then she saw a city entrenched on the river and the mountainside. There was a flow of people here, and curls of smoke rose from the city, blowing towards her face with excitement and complexity.
Slowly, the big falcon flapped its wings and landed under a high tower outside the city. The style of this tower was exactly the same as Lighthouse where Knox lived, but the color was black and gray.
At this moment, a man in a black trench coat was standing under the tower waiting. When the big falcon descended, he smiled and waved to Sylutia on the back of the falcon.
Untying the rope, Sylutia picked up the suitcase and jumped off the back of the falcon. The small black leather shoes stepped on the soft grass. Then he took a few steps forward to adjust his balance.
"Hello."
Holding the suitcase in both hands, Sylutia bowed politely and saluted. His hair, which was blown by the wind, raised a beautiful arc on his cheeks.
"Hello, lovely child." The other person came over with a smile and pushed up the monocle on the bridge of his nose.
"My name is Chidi, what's yours?"
"My name is Hedra, wait a moment, this is the letter that the teacher asked me to bring to you." Sylutia opened the suitcase and dug out the letter.
After handing it to the other party, Chidi opened it, then checked it briefly and nodded.
"Yes, I understand." He put the letter away.
"Come with me first and rest in the tower for a while." After saying that, he seemed to remember something again, walked to the giant falcon, patted it a few times, whispered a few words, and then the giant falcon named "Nate" took off again and disappeared into the distance in the sky.
Then Sylutia followed him, walked into the slightly cool black tower, and listened to the other person's introduction to the situation.
"I heard about you from teacher Knox. He wrote a letter some time ago and asked me to take care of you." When he reached the corner at the bottom of the tower, he gently pulled the rope, and strange fluorescent lights lit up.
"Let's go sit down in the living room on the third floor and I'll tell you about the arrangements later."
"Thank you, Mr. Chidi." Sylutia followed and walked up.
After arriving on the third floor and sitting down, the other party brought some tea, placed it in front of Sylutia, and then introduced himself.
"My name is Chidi, and I am also a local-born Mage. I joined Bionics School when I was young. At that time, senior Knox served as an acting teacher for a period of time, teaching newcomers in the school, and I happened to be one of the students."
"Time flies so fast. Speaking of which, it was more than thirty years ago," he sighed with emotion.
"Currently, I serve as the watchman of this "Blackbird Tower". I mainly protect the local environment from being eroded by World of Shadows. In addition, when encountering some strange phenomena or powerful monsters, I am responsible for reporting and contacting people to deal with them." He has fourth-level strength, which seems to be rare "Dead Ember" Aspect Power.
"I already know about your situation. Tomorrow I will take you to the Mage Alliance's affiliated institution in the city to take the assessment. After passing it, you will get a blue recommendation letter and then you can go to the core area of the Mage Alliance to study."
"Thank you." The girl put down her teacup and thanked her again.
"You're welcome. After sitting for a while, I will take you into the city and find a comfortable hotel."
"It's okay for me to live here by myself, but it's quite cold and cold, so it might not be suitable for you, so it would be more comfortable to spend the night in the city. By the way, you can also have a good dinner in the city, haha." He said that he was not good at cooking. In order to avoid both of them having to eat uncomfortable, it is better to go directly to the city to solve the problem.
After that, the two talked for a while, and then Chidi got up and took Sylutia into this densely populated riverside city.
"Oh, by the way, this place is called Chicas," Switch City"Chicas, Mage Alliance. A large number of industrial products will flow from this river and city to the outside world."
