After taking back everything that belonged to him, Grimm lazily lay on his bed in his room. Smelling the familiar scent, he felt that life was so beautiful.
Phew …
To be honest, the memory of the interrogation room was definitely a nightmare for Grimm. Fortunately, Grimm finally came out safely and finally got the approval of the great Wizard Norris, becoming his third disciple.
A Level 3 Wizard was already the highest level in all the Wizard Academies. There was no higher level than a Level 3 Wizard.
Grimm's excitement was indescribable. His future was bright and beautiful.
After a while, Grimm began to summarize some of the magic materials and items he had collected in the trial. At the same time, he carefully recorded some important clues in his notes.
For example, through the energy waves of the Sun's Child spell and the Blood Bat's Kiss, Grimm's understanding of the application of some fire elemental energy, and how to insert the rare fire elemental rune with indestructible properties in his soul into the Soul Elemental Magic Circle, when he tried to seize the treasures in the Secret Mirror twice, and when he was under the illusion of the Exploding Mushroom and the Life Leaf, some abnormalities of the Symbiotic Insect Whelk …
Three hourglasses later.
Grimm stored the bottle of blood from the Sun's Child in a sealed, low-temperature freezer, and carefully cultivated the Exploding Mushroom in another container. After estimating that it was about time, Grimm instinctively took out two broken branches and waited for the lightning pattern to flash at a specific time on the smooth, mirror-like cut of the branches.
In an instant, Grimm sensed through his soul, and the blurry rune imprint in his soul seemed to become a little clearer, but it was still like looking at flowers in a fog.
These days, Grimm had completely gotten used to this kind of slow progress. He directly kept the two broken branches close to his body.
It was time to meditate. However, at this moment, someone knocked on Grimm's door.
"Huh? Who is it? "
Grimm looked at the time in surprise. It was already late at night. Why would someone knock on his door at this time? The instant he opened the door, a wave of ice-cold baleful aura assaulted him. Grimm's expression instantly changed, because he saw Lafite's gloomy face that was about to drip water. Lafite's eyes were fixed on him.
"Ra- Raffi."
Grimm stuttered as he realized that he had made a mistake. He had actually forgotten about the Princess just now. He was dead meat now.
Lafite stared into Grimm's eyes, advancing step by step, closing in on Grimm and forcing Grimm to retreat. Grimm's face was full of embarrassment. He wanted to say something to divert Lafite's attention, but Lafite didn't care at all. He just walked forward, step by step. Grimm leaned against the wall, not knowing what to say.
Only then did Lafite stop, glaring fiercely at Grimm.
"Missing again? More than ten days … Do you know how many times the Death Sail League has asked me to contact you? Do you know how many times I've come to this little house of yours? If it weren't for your soul connection with the crystal ball, I would have thought you were dead! "Lafite's cold voice almost froze Grimm.
"Ugh … It's not what you think …"
Grimm was a little afraid of Lafite. On one hand, it was because of the memories on the ship. On the other hand, it was because of Grimm's sacrifice for the one he loved. He would rather appear weak in front of the one he loved to maintain the delicate relationship between them.
Grimm began to talk about the rough experiences he had in the past few days.
First, after the third trial, he was forced into the conflict between the Black Isotta Academy and the Sun's Child. Then, he replaced the Sun's Child and entered the pocket dimension. After that, he was imprisoned and interrogated by a group of wizards.
As expected, as Grimm slowly told his story, Lafite's expression changed. She asked with concern, "Are you okay now?"
Grimm could feel the sincere concern from the person in front of him. He couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. This was the second person Grimm had this kind of feeling from after Old Ham. He smiled gently and said, "Didn't I tell you? I'm fine now, and I've become the third apprentice of Wizard Norris."
Swoosh …
With a smile that came from the bottom of her heart, Lefay bit her red lips and raised her chin high, revealing her snow-white neck as she looked up at Glenn. Her slender right index finger was indecently drawing circles on Glenn's chest. An ambiguous atmosphere filled the air between the two of them.
Lafite said slowly in a sweet voice, "So … should we celebrate?" Lafite's eyes almost melted Grimm. There was an inexplicable smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she was hinting at something.
Grimm's breath became heavy. He murmured, "Then … celebrate? Woo … "
Feeling the sweetness between his lips and the pressure on his chest, the night passed.
…
The next night, the assembly of the Death Sail League.
There were less than two hundred people in the Death Sail League. Of the fourteen elders, only nine were left. However, one of the Five Heavenly Kings, the Heavenly King controlled by the one-armed man, was still alive, and still kept a low profile.
Glenn silently sat behind Lafite, wearing the Ashen Mask on his face, not uttering a single word. It seemed that at Lafite's side, Glenn was already accustomed to this kind of low-key, obscure role that served as a foil. Chris, Anna, and Robin all had their own social circles. Robinson also had his own social circles, but because of Grimm's presence, he started to talk in a low voice out of habit.
Grimm responded to Robinson's words from time to time, and Robinson was happy to do so. He almost told him everything that had happened in the Black Isotta Academy in the past ten days.
First, the most important thing that happened in the school was that the four organizations representing the school began to recruit the surviving students on a large scale, developing them into new blood.
This also meant that the protection period of Grimm's new students had officially ended.
The Death Sail League needed to develop, and of course, they also wanted to recruit the surviving students. As a result, the conflict broke out. It was a fair and aboveboard competition. The four organizations only sent out a few senior students whose mind power had reached the limit of an apprentice, and they easily defeated Alastair and the other elders of the Death Sail League.
But it was understandable. After all, some of the students were tens or even hundreds of years old. Even if they did not become wizards, they could still improve their mind power and witchcraft to the limit of an ordinary student. Alastair and the other new students who had only been in the school for three years were no match for them.
The four organizations were the Justice Union of the Barren Yard, the Black Mountain Society, the Ivory Hunting Group, the Sixth Branch of the Black Iso Tower, and the Death Sail League. These were the top five organizations of the Black Iso Tower.
Another important thing that happened in the school was that the four top students, who were the leaders of the four organizations, had announced that Sam, Kyrie, and Bibiona would be their targets in the future.
As for the specific reason, no one knew.
But Grimm already had a guess. Was it because of the qualification to practice in the Holy Tower after seventeen years? The qualification to become a Demon-Hunter?
Since Grimm did not have a mentor before, he did not know the specific reason. But it would be solved soon. Grimm had decided to bring up this issue and the "living people" experiment together with Norris the next time he met him.
As for the advanced microscope, he had asked Fatty for help. Fatty also said that he had asked a wizard who was going to the Holy Tower of Seven Rings for help a few months ago, so he would hear from him soon.
Under the stage, Glenn was deep in thought under the Ashen Mask. On the stage, Alastair's impassioned speech had reached the climax. "In short, our Death Sail League has become the fifth most powerful force among the students of Black Isotta Academy. This is the result of our joint efforts!"
"Roar …"
Many apprentices of the Death Sail League roared in excitement.
Alastair's face was full of excitement. After everyone calmed down, he paused and said, "Now, I will announce the two newly promoted elders of the league. If anyone has any doubts, you can challenge them in private. The winner will take over the position of elder. These two are Bell and … Grimm! "
Alastair raised Bell's hand with one hand and extended the other to Grimm, who was sitting quietly behind Lafite.
Grimm was surprised. Promote me to an elder?
Alastair and Lafite never told him about this. Also, Grimm did not want to be too high-profile in front of Lafite. Grimm could not help but touch Lafite. Under Lafite's questioning eyes, Grimm slowly but firmly shook his head.
Lafite smiled and did not ask anything. He turned around and said loudly, "Elder Alastair, Grimm cannot be an elder of the league for some reasons."
Alastair's face darkened. "Elder Lafite, the league is in need of manpower. Grimm should be responsible for his strength. Besides, the league treats elders very well …"
"Enough!" Lafite said coldly, "I said I can't be an elder. Why do you want to force Grimm to be an elder?"
Suddenly, the atmosphere of the meeting became cold. Vicious-Tongued Queen's roar and the venomous-tongued Beauty's going crazy …
Alastair could not help but smile bitterly. How did he offend this Queen?
Even Grimm could not help but be speechless. It seemed that he had underestimated Lafite's temper. Lafite's temper was better in front of him, Chris, and the others, but in front of outsiders, she was simply a self-centered strong woman, an elegant and willful queen.
