Mary arrived at Kirslin Castle seven days later, accompanied by Meryl and Emelia.
The moment she saw Grim, she began to complain.
"Why are things happening one after another? It's only been a few decades, and now there's this competition? Do those old fellows have nothing better to do? Why are they giving you resources? "
Grimm interrupted her nonsense with a smile. Otherwise, if these words fell into the ears of those Tier 4 Sorcerers, it would be enough to cause trouble for Mary.
"Since you already know that they're giving me resources, why are you so angry?"
"Hmph, don't let your guard down. I've heard a lot of news on my way here. None of the three opponents are easy to deal with, and they're all at the top of the Grade 3 Magi! "Mary said worriedly.
"That's right, teacher. You have to be careful. I have a feeling that there's a conspiracy behind the association's invitation!" Meryl frowned. She was becoming more and more like a Red Dragon Witch, and her words and actions were filled with a strong self-confidence that could not be questioned.
However, it was only in front of Grimm that she would show such a worried expression.
Emelia usually got along well with Mary and Meryl, and when she heard that there was a show to watch, she naturally rushed over excitedly. Seeing the rare expressions on her two companions' faces, she could not help but chuckle.
"I think you two are worrying too much. The master has always been a cautious person. If there's really a great danger, he won't agree so easily. "
Mary, who was wearing a fiery red leather suit, glared at Grim.
"That guy isn't as smart as you think! That Alice must have given him some sort of hint, and that's why he's willing to bet everything on it. "
"Lady Alice is the leader of the Witches of Destiny. If even she thinks highly of teacher … Ouch!" Mary pinched Meryl hard before she could finish her sentence, and she could not help but cry out in pain.
"Hmph, if that Alice is really that powerful, why doesn't she dare to leave the Tower of Destiny? Last time … Last time, she said that Envik would be good for Grim, and what happened? Grim was almost trapped in there! "
"But … But teacher still came back safely, and he even brought back a lot of benefits!"
"That was exchanged with my life!" Mary looked annoyed. "Maybe Alice does have some skills. She can easily help you figure out where the treasure is and where the thing you need the most is. The only thing she couldn't figure out was what was crouching beside the treasure! Think about it, a human Hero believes the words of the old witch and barges into the treasure cave, only to discover a dragon by accident … A dragon can indeed be considered a moving treasure, but does that human Hero have the life to enjoy it? "
Winlier and Emelia looked at each other in surprise. They didn't expect Lady Mary, who had always been hot-tempered and impulsive, to say something so insightful.
Indeed, the Witches of Destiny more or less had some problems in this area!
They could indeed help people find the most efficient shortcut, but they would always ignore the risks of the shortcut, whether intentionally or unintentionally. If he followed their instructions, he would definitely reap a bountiful harvest. However, once they encountered danger, it would be extremely dangerous.
After all, danger and opportunity always coexisted!
"Master, it's so dangerous this time. Why didn't Lady Alice come personally?" Emelia asked in confusion.
Meryl shook her head lightly. "This is the scattered Forest of Towers, and it's still very wary of the three major forces. They won't welcome Lady Alice! "
"Teacher, will there be any danger to your life when you participate in the competition this time?" Meryl asked softly. "I've already used all my power to investigate, but I didn't get any results. The Association's appearance in this competition is very strange, but the wizards we can contact are too weak, so we can't get any information … "
"Meryl, don't worry. I'm quite confident in this competition. Those opponents won't be able to do anything to me! "
"Oh right, teacher, this is the information about the three opponents we've investigated. Find a chance to take a look!" Meryl took out a piece of parchment and handed it to Grim.
Grim took the parchment and looked at it. It was filled with information about Galo, Dante, and Sanazar. Although it was not as detailed as the Association's information, it was enough to outline their basic information and combat habits.
"What do you think? Do you have any special feelings about running into an old friend?" Mary stared at Grim with a cruel smile on her face.
Sanazar had once been the synonym of a powerful Wizard in Grim and Mary's eyes. The two of them were well aware of her prowess.
However, at this moment, Grim had grown from an inconspicuous Tier 1 Sorcerer into a powerful Sorcerer on par with her. This subtle and complicated change in mentality was something that could not be fully described by those who had experienced it themselves.
At the very least, when Grim thought of this, his emotions surged and he could not calm down.
As for what Sanazar was thinking right now, it was hard to explain in a few words.
… …
Regardless of what Grim and Sanazar were thinking, Kothrin Castle had become the center of a huge whirlpool.
The sudden announcement of the competition ten days ago had shaken the entire scattered Forest of Towers.
After all, it had been hundreds of years since a new Grade 4 Wizard had appeared in the central continent. From the content of the competition announced by the Association, it was not a selection for all Grade 3 Wizards. Instead, it was a pre-determined selection of four participants.
Face-smashing Wizard Galo, Psychic Wizard Dante, Venomous Wyvern Sanazar, and the newly risen legendary Fire Wizard Grim …
Strictly speaking, these four were true powerhouses at the peak of Grade 3. With the Source Substance rewarded by the Association, it was almost certain that they would advance to Grade 4.
After all, the birth of a Grade 4 Wizard would greatly change the power structure of the local Wizards, even triggering a wave of change.
Hence, all the Wizard families and organizations that heard the news sent their representatives to Kothrin Castle. Watching the competition was only one of the reasons. The main reason was to find out who the new Grade 4 Wizard was.
After all, being able to maintain a good personal relationship with a Grade 4 Wizard in advance was something that most Wizard families could not ask for.
On one of the airships heading towards Fort Keslin, it was packed with representatives and plenipotentiary envoys from various regions of the scattered Tallinn Forest. Among them were a few Magi wearing the Salubo Family's insignia.
"I can't believe that kid is so powerful. He's already on the same level as Master Sanazar!" The one who spoke was Wizard Forgan from the Salubo Family. The "kid" he kept mentioning was naturally the traitor Grim, who everyone was afraid of.
"Master Forgan, please don't mention him too much! This is not our family's base. If word gets out … "Wizard Forgan was still cautious as he reminded Forgan with worry.
"What's there to be afraid of?" Wizard Forgan said angrily, "No matter how fast he climbs, he still has to be ranked behind Master Sanazar. Didn't you hear the ranking made by those Wizards? Our Master Sanazar is ranked second, and that guy can only be ranked third … Hmph, traitor! "
This ranking had only appeared recently.
In the past, there were not many people who could reach the peak of rank 3. That was why Galo, Sanazar, and Dante were the cream of the crop among the Tier 3 Wizards, firmly occupying the top three spots.
Unfortunately, with the rapid rise of this legendary Fire Wizard, the top three had become four. The poor Wizard Psychic was forced out of the top three and fell to fourth place. This ranking was obviously based on the Wizard who had the highest chance of winning this competition.
It had to be said that Face Breaker Galo, who represented the Randner Family and was in charge of the elite Bleeding Pike team, was no less famous than Grim in the scattered Forest of Towers. It was just that the legendary Fire Wizard had used the power of a rank 4 magic weapon to defeat the rank 4 Wizard Declan, which was why Galo's glory had been taken away.
However, this competition would not allow the legendary Fire Wizard to take advantage of others. Therefore, after comparing the basic information of all the participants, some nosy Wizards came up with a basic ranking.
Ranked first was naturally Wizard Face Breaker Galo, who had been famous for hundreds of years!
He was a powerful Wizard who had traveled to other planes and killed the Undead Monarch with his own hands. Although the Undead Monarch was not as powerful as the Wizards of the Sorcerer World, it was still a powerful rank 4 existence.
It was because of this coincidental killing that Wizard Galo had obtained an extremely powerful immortal body. More than 70% of his current battle prowess was pinned on this undying body.
Ranked second was the tyrannical Wizard Sanazar of the Sarubo Family.
She had inherited a strange bloodline called the Venom Wyvern, which allowed her to turn into a powerful Venom Wyvern in battle. Not only did she have a strong physique and extraordinary magic resistance, but she also had the power of venom.
Therefore, ordinary rank 3 Wizards were no match for Sanazar after her transformation.
Ranked third was the legendary Fire Wizard Grim, who had a legendary story that could not be told to an end.
It was because of his miraculous rise that he had created a few terrifying records in the central continent that no one could match.
It was said that Wizard Grimm had been a rank 1 wizard for about 200 years!
Two hundred years might be a long time for ordinary humans, but for Sorcerers, it was just a slightly longer journey.
Two hundred years … might be enough for a normal Wizard to reach rank 1, but Wizard Grim had already climbed to the peak of rank 3.
