After Lafi's outburst, the Blood Sail Alliance gathering concerning Green was finally brought to a close.
Rather than waste his time on trivial matters, Green preferred to enrich himself by studying profound and wondrous knowledge alone. Thus, once the Blood Sail Alliance gathering ended, he briefly bid Lafi farewell and quickly headed toward Black Isotta Tower.
There were still several days until Peranos formally began teaching Green wizardry. He needed to conduct some experimental research during that time.
Just as he was about to leave alone, Yorkris called out to Green with a female wizard apprentice in tow.
"Hmm?"
When Green saw Ilaltiwen beside Yorkris, he immediately understood why they had come. A faint smile appeared beneath the Pale Mask.
During the newcomer trial, when Green had fought for the first secret realm reward, he had indeed saved this female wizard apprentice by chance. She had likely come because of that.
Ilaltiwen was not particularly beautiful. Flat-chested and rough-skinned, she possessed all the flaws beautiful girls tended to lack. Yet Green had no idea how Yorkris had ended up having such a special relationship with her.
While Green's thoughts ran wild, Ilaltiwen, standing beside Yorkris, was equally uneasy. Even now, she could not forget that scene from the trial. Whenever she thought of it, the man in the pale mask would inevitably appear in her midnight nightmares, lingering for a long time without dispersing.
This unremarkable man from the alliance before her had actually possessed such terrifying power, slaughtering competing wizard apprentices throughout the secret realm.
He had even refused the alliance elder's nomination just moments ago.
Yorkris smiled. "Green, this is Ilaltiwen. You should have met a few times before, right? I brought her here this time mainly to express her gratitude for saving her during the trial."
