"Agatha's right!"
A crisp and cold female voice abruptly cut in, causing the two people in the room to be startled.
Following the soft sound of the wooden door, a slender figure wrapped in a long palace dress appeared in front of the two.
"Mother!"
"Welcome!"
The two in the room hurriedly bowed and couldn't help but feel inexplicably nervous.
This was because it was none other than the chief and leader of the entire Deception Witches clan, Lady Angelina, who had the strength of a grade 4.
Angelina was already more than seven hundred years old, but judging from her appearance alone, she seemed to be a few years younger than her daughter, Lena. When the two stood together, people who didn't know what was going on would mistake Lena for her mother and Angelina for her daughter.
However, as a grade 4 Witch, with Angelina's arrival, the entire haunted hut suddenly became quiet.
Some strange monsters that were kept in bottles or wooden cages were curled up in the corner, shivering, not even daring to breathe loudly.
There were many secrets in the wooden hut, so long as they were scanned by her mental power, they would undoubtedly be revealed.
In particular, the secret laboratory hidden in the wooden hut's basement attracted Angelina's mental power for a moment.
"I completely agree with what Agatha said just now!" Angelina walked to the bed and looked at Chve, who was still unconscious. She secretly sighed, "Before coming, I had already ordered a stop to the pursuit of the Chosen of Fate."
"Mother …" Lena couldn't help but take a step forward.
"Say no more." Angelina interrupted her directly, "Now that things have come to this, both you and I have to bear some responsibility. What's wrong is wrong, we must correct it when things have developed to the point of no return. "
"Yes, Mother!" Lena lowered her head sadly.
She knew her mother's temperament very well. When it came to things that she had decided on, she would never allow outsiders to disobey her.
"You should also focus on the next few years! You don't have to worry about the clan's affairs, just focus on assisting Chve. Be sure to arm her strength before the Battle of Fate begins. The return of the Destiny Witches is likely to be a harbinger, and the other witch factions that have lost their inheritance are likely to return one after another, so … "
At this point, Angelina paused for a moment and suddenly stopped talking.
This matter was extremely complicated, and it was very likely to involve the entanglement of love and hate between the thirteen branches of the ancient witches. Therefore, before receiving the news from the outside world, the more he did, the more mistakes he would make. This was the other main reason why Angelina decided to stop the hunt!
Hearing that she was deprived of her power, Rena's face instantly turned pale, but she still nodded obediently.
"When will she wake up?" Angelina asked Agatha this time.
Feeling the direct gaze of a grade 4 witch, Agatha instantly sweated profusely. She forced herself to calm down and said, "Miss Chave's body did not suffer any injuries, but her spiritual consciousness suffered a strong impact. If she could get rid of the nightmare on her own, then her spiritual origin would only need a period of recuperation to recover. If we forcefully awaken it, I'm afraid … "
"Then let her stay here for a while. During this period, you can withdraw any resources you need from the clan. You must not harm Chve's talent and potential. Do you understand? "
"I understand … I understand …" Agatha nodded quickly.
"Also, manage your laboratory well. If I hear any news about 'it' outside the Forest of Whispers, do you know what the consequences will be? "Angelina stopped at the door and said a few words coldly.
Agatha seemed to understand what the matriarch was talking about, so she kept nodding her head in agreement.
"Yes … Yes … Yes … I'll be careful."
After the domineering Angelina left, Rena stared at Agatha suspiciously. "What taboo experiment are you doing behind my back? Even Mother couldn't help but beat you up. "
"Nothing … It's really nothing …" Agatha's ugly old face smiled flatteringly, trying to play dumb.
"Hmph, you'd better not cause any serious consequences. Otherwise, even if Mother doesn't punish you, I won't let you go." Rena's next words immediately gave Agatha a headache. "Alright, Chve needs to recuperate here. The second floor of this hut will be my temporary residence! Take care of Chve and don't bother me if there's nothing important! "
After saying that, she waved her hand and a few apprentice witches immediately rushed in, looking like they were going to thoroughly clean the haunted hut.
Agatha's wrinkled face finally couldn't help but twitch.
… …
Seven years later.
Fedsouth City, Wizard Tower.
Seven years was not a long time, but it was not a short time either.
For high-ranking Wizards, seven years might only be enough to complete a large-scale witchcraft experiment. But for Wizarding Apprentices, it was enough for them to walk between heaven and hell!
Wizard Meryl held a thick book in her arms and walked out of the classroom.
A group of grey-robed Apprentices immediately showed a cautious and respectful expression when they saw her. They all moved to the sides of the corridor and bowed slightly.
Wizard Meryl had a faint smile on her face. She walked through the crowd and turned to the floating disc.
After returning to the sixth floor, she actually saw a familiar figure at the door of her residence.
"Am, it's you? When did you come back? "Meryl asked with a hint of surprise, her tone was also a little intimate.
"I just came back. Lady Alice asked me to invite you over. "Am was a little reserved.
Although he was lucky enough to become a Prospective Wizard five years ago, he was still far from Meryl, who had become a Wizard in one go two years ago.
They were all Wizarding Apprentices. Although there was some difference in strength, they were all Wizarding Apprentices, so there was not much of a barrier when they interacted. But now that Meryl had successfully become a Wizard, the original five Wizarding Apprentices had unnaturally split up.
Of the group of five, Codar was a veteran Prospective Wizard. Naturally, he was not willing to be beaten by Meryl and become an inferior apprentice. Therefore, he forcefully tried to advance last year, but the result was, naturally, regrettably a failure! Although it was not life-threatening, the damaged spiritual space was still not completely repaired.
As for the remaining three advanced Wizarding Apprentices, Am and Torre had also successfully become Prospective Wizards. Only Lina was still suffering at the level of an advanced Wizard Apprentice.
Three years ago, the Sarubo Family had distributed another batch of Wizarding Apprentices. Wizard Grimm had three new advanced Wizarding Apprentices, and Witch Alice had five new Wizarding Apprentices.
As for Meryl, since she had just become a Wizard, she still had to focus on stabilizing her spiritual space, so the family did not give her any apprentice tasks. However, she took the initiative to accept teaching tasks in the Wizard Tower, so she had the most widespread good reputation among the Wizarding Apprentices in the family.
In the past seven years, with the return of the Sarubo Family's foreign resources and the return of a few Wizarding Apprentices, the Wizard Tower in Ferdenan City became lively again.
The return of the Rank 2 Wizard Forgan and another Rank 1 Wizard, Geya, brought back a large amount of rare resources from other planes. Under the family's unstinting nurturing, three Prospective Wizards had successfully become Wizards in the past five years. This also allowed the Sarubo Family's foundation, Ferdenan City, to have more than a dozen Wizards stationed there.
One Rank 3 Wizard, Sanazar, one Rank 2 Wizard, Forgan, and nine Rank 1 Wizards!
After seven years, the Sarubo Family had finally recovered from the impact of the last Planar War. As long as they continued to fight steadily, the family's strength would definitely continue to increase.
If the only two Rank 3 Wizards in the family could successfully advance to Rank 4, the Sarubo Family would have hope of becoming a large Wizard Family.
After all, in the Wizarding World, the only top-notch strength that everyone recognized was Rank 4!
Upon hearing Alice's invitation, Meryl immediately revealed a joyful smile, and brought Am to the 7th floor of the Magus Tower.
Although she had the ability to stand on her own after advancing to a Wizard, she still considered herself a Wizard of Grimm's faction because of their friendship and relationship. Among them, she was the closest to Alice.
There were two reasons for this outcome.
Firstly, it was because they were both 'women'.
Although Alice's body had been solidified in the state of an 8-year-old girl, she was now a mature woman of 23 years old. At least, that was the case in her heart!
Meryl was about the same age as her. One was Grimm's' subordinate ', and the other was Grimm's disciple. Their similar statuses allowed them to quickly become close friends who could talk about anything.
As for the second point, only the two of them knew about it.
Before Meryl advanced, Alice had used divination to help her solve some problems that had been bothering her for a long time. Most of the expenses for her level-up ceremony were paid by Grimm, so after she successfully leveled up, the poor Wizard Meryl naturally came to his side.
In Alice's residence, a large Wind Eagle was tied up tightly and laid flat on the floor. Its half-burnt feathers showed that it had suffered a terrible 'abuse'.
"Sister Alice, did you really bring it back?" Meryl couldn't help but cry out in joy when she saw the prey Alice brought back.
