The Holy Tower of Seven Rings World.
"Still alive? That's … great! "
He had been waiting for more than a month. When Grimm heard the news that Anton Seymour was still alive, he felt an indescribable emotion for a moment. It was more of a familial bond than that between master and disciple.
Grimm had also thought of keeping him in the Tower of Annihilation for protection, but he quickly erased the idea. It was too selfish!
Grimm could use his own power to protect this child that surpassed the relationship between a disciple and a disciple, but at the same time, he realized his pathetic desire to protect, he was also erasing the infinite possibilities of his third disciple. Although, in reality, he was almost useless compared to Cappuccino and Black Iso.
But the more this was so, the more Grimm had to pay attention to him.
Because the same was true for Grimm in the past!
Once, Senior Sister Secluded Spring was like a mountain. On the one hand, Grimm admired her infinitely, and on the other hand, she oppressed Grimm so much that he almost couldn't breathe. No matter what he did, no matter what he achieved, in the eyes of others, it was as if he was standing behind the shadow of Senior Sister Secluded Spring, living as the second Secluded Spring.
In order to break free from this shadow, Grimm kept working hard until he reached the peak of Level-3. When he advanced to the Stigmata Stage and was finally at the same level as Senior Sister, he realized that he had unknowingly surpassed everyone.
Therefore, whether it was the talented Cappuccino or the incomparable Black Iso, they were not the best candidates for Grimm to inherit his will.
As the innate Sorcerer's Will, Cappuccino was born to be favored and protected by this world. As long as she did not leave this world, she was almost an unrestrained existence. No one would kill a Guardian, but she did not have to fulfill the responsibility of a World Guardian.
Her will was not strong.
Although Black Iso had the wisdom and unparalleled talent of a Sorcerer that Grimm was completely satisfied with, once he advanced to a Stigmata Sorcerer, he almost instantly inherited the Soul Bridal Ancient Sorcerer's Dark Peak Glorious Will. After two lifetimes of accumulation, even if Grimm imposed his will on him now, he might not achieve any effect in the future.
So, Grimm had always hoped that there would be an ordinary Sorcerer who relied on his own efforts, wisdom, and luck to achieve extraordinary achievements, prove himself, and inherit his will!
Among the three disciples, only Anton Seymour was the most suitable.
"Hehe, he's not just alive. If not for the fact that the news from the frontlines is accurate, even I wouldn't dare to believe it. A mere rank 1 Magus who joined the frontlines for a mere 400 years has consecutively obtained four rank 3 Honour Badges, one rank 2 Honour Badge and one rank 1 Honour Badge!"
The Stigmata Sorcerer under the Holy Tower of Seven Rings, who Grimm had entrusted to inquire about the news, murmured in a low voice.
"What!?"
Even with Grimm's calmness, he could not help but exclaim in disbelief when he heard that Anton Seymour had achieved such a series of achievements.
"How did he do it? Is it because of my identity? But even so, he is only a Level-1 Sorcerer. How could he have achieved so much? "
"Let me check."
The Will-O 'Wisp Stigmata Sorcerer said. The runes in the crystal ball flashed, and he could not help but nod frequently. After a long time, he closed the crystal ball.
"Tower of Annihilation, this disciple of yours … is really a combination of luck and wisdom. Congratulations on accepting such a good disciple! When others gave up, only he did not give up. He encouraged the legion and finally persisted until the arrival of reinforcements, changing the situation of the war. In addition to his personal strength, he has all the qualities of a Bright Sorcerer captain, especially his never-giving faith. He is really a talent that can be molded. He has already attracted the attention of Dawn Sages. Even if you did not look for him, he should be transferred back to the Sorcerers World to be molded and trained. "
At this moment, Grimm could not describe his feelings.
He was too satisfied, even exceeding Grimm's expectations!
He had only taught Anton Seymour the most basic path of wizardry when he was still a sorcerer-apprentice. He had not been biased in any way, but Anton Seymour had achieved achievements that far exceeded his expectations and imagination. He had even surpassed his former self, the Cappuccino and Black Isotta.
It had been too many years, and Grimm had not felt so weak and touched.
For a long time, Grimm did not say a word. He stood quietly, recalling the time when Anton Seymour was still a naughty child in the cave. While he was recovering his mental strength, he poured his heart and soul into teaching this disciple to be a person, to do things, and to explore the spirit of truth. Also, Grimm's spirit of unity that did not give up all hope on the road of growth of the Dark Sorcerers.
Unconsciously, the corner of his eyes became a little moist. Grimm seemed to see Peranos's freedom before he left.
"Master, your Sorcerer's Will can continue to be passed on …"
…
"Master …"
Five hundred years was not a long time for Grimm, but for Anton Seymour, it was too long.
It was so long that Master Grimm had long become the deepest memory in his heart. He was like a warm spiritual encouragement from his own father. Every time others were about to give up, it was Master's earnest teaching that made Anton Seymour walk through.
The sorcerers around him were constantly falling and being replaced, but Anton Seymour had never thought of failure or death. He had turned from a little sorcerer who yearned for everything into an official sorcerer who bore everything!
His serious appearance, never-stopping pace, heart that pursued the truth, and belief in the power of the sorcerer army around him to win.
Grimm did not know what had happened to Anton Seymour, but he was no longer that child. The child who stood beside his genius senior brothers and sisters, a little reserved and at a loss.
"Not bad!"
Grimm patted Anton Seymour's shoulder like a kind elder. He was extremely gratified and even cried a little, nodding frequently.
"Master!"
Under his cold appearance, at this moment, Anton Seymour burst into tears. He was like a child who had returned home. He hugged Grimm tightly and cried for the sake of the innocence and beauty that he had abandoned for the sake of maturity.
Growth came with a price!
In a remote corner of the Holy Tower of Seven Rings, there was only the master and his disciple murmuring in a low voice in front of the bonfire. There was no one else, communicating heart to heart.
Time passed unknowingly, and Grimm gradually understood everything that had happened to this disciple. It was so similar to his own. He had also had a love, but because of the cruelty of the civilization war, they were separated by life and death. He hated Skynet, hated those cold metal robots, and hated his own weakness.
The melodious sound of a horn was the sound of the Heart of the World of Seven Rings opening. It led to the Sorcerer World's Ancient Tree of Life. Grimm stood up.
"Master, where are you going?"
He shook his head and smiled faintly.
"I'm going to carry out a mission. It may be very dangerous. Although I've prepared some backup plans, I'm not sure if they can be guaranteed. So … I'll leave these for you."
As he said this, Grimm actually broke off one of his ring fingers! At the same time, there was a handwritten notebook and a book.
"Take them. My body contains the secrets of the World Veil's rules. This handwritten notebook contains the knowledge of the Destructive Force and the Source of Destruction. As for this Fairy Tale of Grimm … You don't understand it now. If one day you achieve a Stigmata, you may understand a little."
Grimm turned around and gradually walked away.
"Remember, they are just your master's Sorcerer Path. They are just a guide for you. As the successor of my will, you have to go further and further. Surpass your senior brothers and sisters, surpass me."
