"Hmm? You … are? "
Apollo was wearing a loose sorcerer's robe and a tall hat. His face was covered by a hazy elemental mist, and a red-eyed frog was lying on his palm. Its chin was bulging, and it was croaking.
This red-eyed frog was also Apollo's soul partner, similar to Grimm, Little Eight, and Norris and Garnigel.
After so many years, Grimm's impression of a friendly, rational, and amiable Bright Sorcerer had not changed at all.
At this moment, he was leading a few normal human nobles over to investigate.
Maybe it was Grimm and Anna York, the two Sorcerers who suddenly visited this small city. After the city was in chaos, Apollo, who was socializing with the nobles in the city, became curious and came over to check it out?
Grimm would never forget.
That year, Grimm was just a child earning a living as a servant in the Viscount's Mansion in Bi Seer City. He thought that the so-called Eastern Coral Island was the entire continent. He was constantly exploited by the old butler and had no expectations for his future.
When he first met Anna York, she was just a shy little girl following behind her brother, a cute little girl who did not even dare to eat the Beauty Clam.
In the blink of an eye, almost three hundred years had passed.
Two of the children selected from all over the Eastern Coral Island had now become official Sorcerers like Apollo, able to converse with the mysterious and powerful Sorcerer of the past.
Was this what it was like to be a sorcerer? Grimm thought back to his childhood and yearned for the unknown sorcerer.
Sorcerers were mysterious, great, and unimaginable in the eyes of normal people.
Along the way, Grimm realized that sorcerers were just normal people who relentlessly pursued the truth.
The reason why sorcerers were mysterious and unfathomable in the eyes of normal people was that their eyes were covered by the veil between truth and illusion.
They could only see what was being served tonight, whose wife was beautiful, and where there was a better job. That was all.
Grimm smiled. Compared to Anna who was getting more and more excited, he gradually calmed down.
Slowly, Grimm took off the Mask of Truth that was concealing his true appearance. A wise and upright face was revealed. It was completely different from the masculine, cruel face of a Dark Sorcerer.
However, Grimm performed the sorcerer's greeting in the manner of a Dark Sorcerer. His long golden hair fluttered in the wind as Grimm looked into Apollo's eyes as if he was his equal. Grimm spoke in a hoarse voice, "Master, do you still remember the sorcerer-apprentice you selected for Lilith's Sorcerer Academy in the Eastern Coral Island two hundred years ago?"
Eastern Coral Island?
Apollo looked at Grimm and Anna in surprise. "You mean …" he said slowly.
Suddenly, Apollo seemed to have thought of something. "Right! Before I went to the underground abyss, I went to the Eastern Coral Island to complete the academy's recruitment mission. During the first mission, I picked a few sorcerer-apprentices at the Eastern Coral Island. They boarded the ship led by Dyla, but they were kidnapped by the Black Isotta Academy. Could it be that you are … "
Apollo's bright eyes scanned the two Dark Sorcerers, Grimm and Anna, with a hint of excitement in his eyes. He was trying to recall his sealed memories.
Anna, who looked like an old witch, smiled shyly as if she was reminiscing about her youthful days.
Grimm, on the other hand, took out a meditation book that Apollo had given him.
Grimm said gratefully, "If it wasn't for your enlightening words of 'give me endless knowledge, and I will use myself as a fulcrum to move the endless world', I might not have been able to become a true sorcerer in this lifetime."
Nina York chimed in, "I also have to thank you for your generosity back then, Master. My brother and I only bribed you with a few dozen magic stones, and we were accepted by you. You chose us to become apprentices."
There was a glimmer of light in Anna's cloudy eyes.
"I remember now!"
Apollo was invited by Grimm and Anna York to sit on the dining table's chair as he spoke with the same excitement.
Apollo first looked at Grimm and said, "Yes, that year, there was indeed a boy named Grimm who asked me for guidance on the principles of sorcery. He didn't ask me to teach him sorcery for killing. I was pleased and gave him a meditation guide book. You're Grimm? "
Grimm nodded, his long blonde hair fluttering in the wind. "Yes, I'm Grimm, the Grimm that you praised so many times!"
After Apollo got the confirmation, he laughed and turned to Anna York. "You said you and your brother, so you must be Anna York. Bi Seer City's governor's precious daughter doesn't have a brother. "
"Yes, I'm Anna." A smile appeared on Anna's wrinkled face.
Apollo nodded with a smile, "Hehe, in that situation, bribing magic stones was secondary. The key was the use of wisdom. This is the most basic ability to become a sorcerer, and it's also the main focus of sorcerer academies when selecting sorcerer-apprentices. You and your brother, although you only bribed a few dozen magic stones, you're really good at using wisdom, unlike those idiots who only know how to follow the rules. "
After a pause, Apollo continued, "Oh yes, there's also Wade. He also bribed with a few dozen magic stones. And that little guy named Robinson, I didn't expect there to be two sorcerer-apprentices with a spiritual power of more than 10 on the Eastern Coral Island. "
Slowly, Apollo shifted his gaze to Grimm, "From you, I can feel an instinctive affinity with the soul, as well as an oppressive force that makes me tremble."
Grimm smiled awkwardly and did not reply.
The affinity was probably due to the protection from the Principal Will of the World-Core and the Rank-3 Honor Badge of the Demon-Hunter Sorcerer. The oppressive force was probably due to the brutal war in the Demon-Hunter Sorcerer World.
On the other hand, Anna started to talk about the past.
"Wade? I remember he was killed when the sirens attacked the ship. Robinson, Lafite, and my brother Chris, the five of us were in the Black Isotta Academy … "
One was a Bright Sorcerer, and two were Dark Sorcerers.
The three sorcerers had surpassed the boundaries between Bright and Dark Sorcerers in the Sorcerer World. They sat at the dining table in the human world without any barriers, talking with each other sincerely.
The nobles who were watching from afar became the background. The people on the street gradually regained their order, and the appearance of the sorcerers became a source of entertainment for them.
Before they knew it, five hourglasses had passed.
Five hourglasses was equivalent to ten hours. To the sorcerers, it was just a blink of an eye, but to the human nobles, it was a long time. Many of them were so tired that they dozed off.
Apollo sighed, "Who would've thought that Lafite, the little girl who was very reluctant to go to the Sorcerer Continent and was forced by her father to go …"
After a pause, Apollo continued, "If her father had known that this would be the outcome, perhaps he wouldn't have been so persistent. Sigh …"
At the same time, Grimm's body suddenly trembled, and he exclaimed, "Lafite … Did she return to Bi Seer City? Yes, yes! Yes, she must have returned to Bi Seer City, that must be it! "
Grimm's voice was filled with joy, and at the same time, he hated himself for being so stupid. He had confined his thoughts to the Twelve Sorcerer Academies, and did not even think about his and Lafite's birthplace.
Come to think of it, Lafite must have had a lot of feelings for that place.
After all, Bi Seer City was not only Lafite's home, but it was also the place where Grimm had lived since he was a child.
Anna was also stunned for a moment, and her murky eyes brightened up. She said with joy, "Yes, I was wondering why there was no news of Lafite all these years. So she has left the Twelve."
The more Grimm and Anna thought about it, the more they felt that it was possible, and they could not help but smile.
Especially Grimm, he could not wait to fly to Lafite's side in Bi Seer City on the Eastern Coral Island, and then drag her to Old Hamu's grave to make up for all the regrets and regrets in his heart. He wanted to hold a grand wedding in the most romantic way possible. He wanted to stay by the seaside with Lafite until the last moment of her life as a Sorcerer's apprentice. He wanted to protect her and do everything he could to help her get the Dark Sorcerer …
The more he thought about it, the more excited Grimm became. He could even faintly feel the beauty of his lips.
That was his first passionate kiss with Lafite. Leaning against the crescent moon, smelling the fragrance of orchids, the tranquil Wan River flowing quietly, the moving hums, the dance floor outside the hall's balcony before the Newcomer Trial, the passion surged, his heart palpitated, he disregarded everything, he found it hard to maintain his composure.
At this moment, recalling the beauty of his past, Grimm suddenly felt that ever since he became an official sorcerer, his life had been too boring.
This …
Was this the feeling of the "beautiful memories" that Fatty and Master Elaine mentioned after he sold the Love Vials?
At this moment, Grimm finally understood the sorcerer's memories.
It was the growth rings of time. Round and round, the memories of his youth, ignorance, passion, and passion were buried in the softest part of his heart, hoping that it would become his most precious treasure.
However, as the number of years increased, the sorcerers could no longer feel the beauty of the core period of youth and ignorance. Instead, they treated it as a cold and rational historical event.
This was the growth of a sorcerer, the price he had to pay in order to pursue the truth and gain power.
Suddenly, Glenn stood up and fiercely clutched his chest as if he wanted to press down on his heart that had stopped beating for more than two hundred years but was now beating madly with "thump thump thump".
"Come, let's go to Bi Seer City on the Eastern Coral Island. Lafite must be there!" Grimm said to Nina excitedly.
On the other side, Myna took out the energy crystal from the dimensional gap and said reluctantly, "Good brother, you are indeed a great species from the ancient times. You know me best! Don't be shy, this is my collection. By the way, my name is Eight Rainbow Miwei. See you next time. "
"Croak croak croak …"
The red-eyed frog rolled its tongue and swallowed the Energy Crystal, then called out in the same way.
"Oh! You might not know this, but Lafite's ancestor must have been a rank 2 or 3 advanced sorcerer. His father bribed … "
After bidding farewell to Apollo, Grimm and Nina flew towards the direction of the Eastern Coral Island, filled with excitement.
