After arriving in this forest Sea of Trees, the group finally settled down. The accommodation arranged by Forest of Incantations were all located in tree houses in the forest. The scenery was unique and made many Mage feel fresh and strange.
On the other side, after Sylutia arrived here, he also got an exclusive tree house. It was divided into three floors, all wooden structures, with round windows and indoor potted flowers and plants. The style was warm and comfortable.
After settling down, the group rested for five days. During this period, they organized a few small banquets and gatherings to gradually get familiar with each other. The real celebration banquet was held on the sixth day after arriving.
At the banquet, the host first introduced the important representatives of the two parties and conveyed the great historical significance of this cooperation. Then Blue Button Witch and Sylutia took the stage one after another and delivered short speeches, and then it was time for free activities.
"It's finally time to eat." The person below who had been waiting for a long time complained.
"Yes, everyone actually understands these crowns, but the process still needs to be followed."
"Come on, let me try that shiny yellow drink. Why does my tongue feel numb after drinking it?"
"No, this drink is discharged."
"This bacon is really good. It tastes slightly fruity and not greasy at all."
"Black gin, okay."
"That Witch is so beautiful."
"Be careful of being charmed. I heard that Witch is very good at this."
"If she can't charm, what else would I like to do?"
"Oh, let it go as you please, don't get eaten up and wiped clean."
The banquet was noisy. Although the Woodland had arrived, there was still a clear distinction between the Mage and the Wizard and Witch of the Woodland at the banquet. Not many people started talking, and they were all still a little reserved and unfamiliar.
The environments in which they lived and grew up in the past were hugely different. It would not be possible for these two groups to become familiar and close in a short period of time.
On the other side, at the end of the long banquet table, Sylutia and Blue Gum Witch"Jannolige were sitting opposite each other, talking quietly.
"I've heard a lot about you before, but I didn't expect that it would be ten years before we actually met." The Blue Button Witch poked a piece of meat with a fork and put it into her mouth. This seemingly unladylike behavior felt natural to her.
"Well, a lot of things have happened in these years." Sylutia looked around. She didn't know many of the Wizard Witch here, and she had only met a few of them before.
"You have been away from the Woodland for too long. Some elders are worried that they will not come back, and some of them are beginning to regret it." The Blue Button Witch continued, then picked up the thick glass wine glass, shook it gently, and drank it all in one gulp.
"During the previous negotiations, Mage Alliance refused to let go on the issue of your coming and going. We also had a lot of quarrels internally at that time. Fortunately, the contract was finally settled and you were officially included in the list, and the quarrel ended."
"Uh, is the impact that big?" Sylutia touched his cheek in embarrassment.
"It's so big. I haven't seen them so upset for a long time." The blue button witch leaned on the back of the chair, shook her hair, then raised her face with her index finger and thumb, and looked at Sylutia with her blue eyes.
"That's the good thing about witches. They live long enough to see a lot of interesting things."
"What are your plans for coming back this time? It is certain that you will be responsible for the knowledge teaching of the Mage system, but we cannot let you do this forever. In fact, everyone still hopes that you can return to the path of a gardener."
"Well, I like the path of being a gardener very much, but it would be a bit bad to give up Mage career rashly now." Sylutia bit his lip lightly and shook his head.
"That's really distressing." Blue Gum Witch closed his eyes slightly.
"But there is still plenty of time, so there is no need to rush. I won't arrange any big tasks for you for at least five years. You just need to popularize Mage Alliance's mechanical creations."
"Time is particularly precious to mortals, but to Transcendent, it is not that important, especially to witches." She said this and opened her eyes.
"Sometimes I feel like I'm tired of being happy and yawn~" she said, gently covering her cheeks with her fingers, then leaning back on the chair, ready to take a nap.
Facing this somewhat lazy and informal witch, Sylutia also felt slightly helpless and didn't know how to deal with it.
Seeing that the other party was asleep, she looked at the delicacies on the table and decided to eat something delicious first.
In this way, she slowly tasted and enjoyed it. After waiting for more than twenty minutes, the witch opposite woke up leisurely and prepared it again.
She stretched and looked around, "Is the party not over yet?"
"Yes, Master Jannolige." Sylutia informed softly.
"Huh, let me talk to you more." The other party picked up the wine and continued to pour himself a glass.
"Tia, have you ever thought about becoming a witch?" The blue button witch said this naturally but suddenly.
"This----"Sylutia I don't know why the topic jumped to this.
"I don't know much about witches." Her mother was indeed a witch, but she never told her how she became a witch, or what was the difference between witches and ordinary people.
"This is simple, actually, a witch is a bad woman who is very beautiful, very powerful, and never ages." The blue button witch quickly evaluated herself.
"Ahem, is that so?" Sylutia almost choked.
"It's almost like this. I've never seen a witch who follows the rules." The blue button witch thought about it carefully.
"Perhaps Radiant Moon"The witch of the road will have a better personality, but Nightmare"Mist Shadow"The witch of the road will never be like that."
"The reason is very simple, Nightmare"Mist Shadow"The characteristic of the path is how you attack other people's spiritual consciousness, how you confuse and tease others. It would be strange if you have such a good character." Blue Gum Witch picked up a small piece of bread, dipped it in the gravy, wiped the plate constantly, and then put it in his mouth to taste.
"That seems to be the case." Sylutia replied after thinking carefully.
"However, if you become a witch, you will probably follow the path of Radiant Moon, and your character will indeed be much better." Blue Button Witch commented.
"The so-called witches mostly use ancient rituals to sublimate and transform their own existence through Moon Aspect."
"For normal people, soul consciousness is the shadow of the physical body. That is to say, because of the physical body, the conscious soul is born. Once the body dies, the soul consciousness is not far away from dissipating."
"But witches are different. We have replaced this layer of cause and effect through rituals. For witches, the physical body is just a projection of the spirit. In other words, as long as the conscious soul is still there, the physical body is like a shadow and can be created at any time."
Blue Gum Witch's words made Sylutia fall into deep thought. Suddenly she remembered the scene she had seen a long time ago. It was the scene that happened when she and Iona faced off in the trial examination.
The other party used a special ritual, and then his body turned into a shadow-like existence, but his true appearance remained in the mirror.
Could it be that this is a witch ritual that has been degraded many times over?
"The biggest advantage of becoming a witch is that your physical body and spiritual consciousness are synchronized. As long as you think you are young and beautiful, your body and body will always be young and beautiful." Blue Gum Witch flicked his finger.
"How is it? Isn't it amazing?"
"There are a few." Sylutia stroked his hair.
"Gee, that's all for today. If you become interested in witch things in the future, you can ask me again."
As expected of a witch, she knows how to stir up people's desires and thoughts. If Sylutia were just Mage, it would probably be difficult to restrain her desire for youth and beauty.
Although Sylutia knows that he will not grow old, he still has some interest in the concept of "witch" mentioned by the Blue Button Witch.
I don't know why my mother became a witch back then. Logically speaking, as long as she has Fairy's blessing, she shouldn't age. Or maybe it's just for fun and experience. Although it's a bit rude to think so, Sylutia has a vague feeling that it's really possible for Xuelin to do this.
