The purple-cloaked figure could tell from Josiah's eyes that he was very interested in illusion magic.
"This isn't all of the illusion magic system." The purple-cloaked figure retracted the inscriptions around her and looked at Josiah.
Josiah applauded for the illusion that the purple-cloaked figure had just created. The illusion magic that appeared before Josiah's eyes was something that couldn't be achieved even with the technology on Earth. However, Josiah saw it in this world that was in the middle of the magic industrial revolution.
Such a miracle deserved applause.
"Besides, the children of the Leuder family are very talented in this area. If she were to learn from me, she would have very high attainments in this area within five years."
The purple-cloaked figure had often been in contact with Hiri's mother when her mother was still alive. Although Hiri had an older sister, the purple-cloaked figure had tested that Hiri's talent was much higher than her sister's.
It was a pity that ever since her mother passed away, Hiri almost never appeared in Noland again.
The purple-cloaked figure didn't understand why Hiri would have such a close relationship with a Chaos demon. However, if Josiah didn't agree, Hiri wouldn't agree either.
"She could also become my successor."
The purple-cloaked figure threw out an offer that no Noland citizen could refuse. That was to inherit the position of a sage.
"Just a nod and you can stand at the top of Noland? That's a good deal. "
Josiah stopped applauding and put on a business-like smile again.
"Although I personally want to agree with you, this isn't something that I can make the decision on."
Josiah glanced at the hesitant Hiri. He knew that the purple-cloaked figure must have treated Hiri as her subordinate and Josiah had the right to order her.
Although in a sense, Josiah and Hiri did have such a relationship, the choice was still in Hiri's hands.
However, the Spellcaster lady had not made up her mind. She was about to say something when Josiah interrupted Hiri.
"Give us some time to think about it. We will give you an answer tomorrow at the same time." Josiah said.
The man in purple nodded and agreed to Josiah's proposal. Hiri wanted to say something, but Josiah grabbed her hand and led her out of the gallery.
The sage stared at Hiri and Josiah's backs as they left. His gaze unconsciously shifted to the huge painting behind him.
… …
Josiah pulled Hiri into the carriage heading back to the Hearthstone Tavern.
This time, Josiah left in a hurry. Hiri didn't understand the situation before she sat in the carriage. Josiah even closed the door of the carriage.
"Why didn't you agree to the purple-cloaked figure directly?"
Hiri rubbed her wrist. Josiah's strength wasn't too great, but his behavior just now reminded Hiri of the first time she met Josiah in the Devil Realm.
This demon prince who seemed a little neurotic to Hiri would always do things that puzzled Hiri.
But as time passed, Hiri gradually got used to it.
"If the purple-cloaked figure wanted me, I would agree without hesitation. After all, I might inherit the position of the sage in the future. But you seem to be very resistant to becoming the sage's disciple?"
Josiah had already seen through Hiri's thoughts. Or rather, he had seen through his past self.
According to her sister Herland, Hiri, who was "left alone" all year round, was a standard wild mage. Back in the day, the things Hiri did the most in the Spellcaster Academy were beating up the upperclassmen. She also skipped classes and played truant.
Josiah didn't think that a "good girl" like her would accept the academy's education.
"Your sister once told me that you skipped all the other courses except for the Magic and Combat courses of the Order System."
Josiah thought for a moment and revealed Hiri's learning situation when she was young.
"I just don't want to learn things I don't like." Hiri didn't feel ashamed of her skipping classes. It seemed that she had a clear conscience. "And those spellcasters who held books all day couldn't beat me at all …"
"So, I should understand that becoming the purple-cloaked figure's apprentice is a form of torture for you and not something to be happy about, right?"
Josiah knew that Hiri was famous for being a problem child in the academy.
"Although being a Sage's apprentice is a glorious identity, the purple-clothed person is definitely a strict teacher. She wants to give you all of her knowledge within a year, and she even wants you to master it. The things you need to learn will probably be hundreds of times more than what you learned in the beginning."
Josiah opened the carriage's window and looked at the faraway Philosopher's Tower. This was the most glorious building in Noland, but not everyone had the chance to enter it.
Some spellcasters wouldn't even have the right to enter the Philosopher's Tower their entire lives. No matter how talented Hiri was, the effort she had to put in to inherit the purple-cloaked figure's position in a short period of time couldn't even be described as' hard '.
"I also don't want to carry books that are heavier than me from morning till night without any rest."
Hiri could imagine that if she became the purple-cloaked figure's apprentice, she would have more restrictions on her freedom than her glorious status. The worst thing was that she might not be able to leave the purple-cloaked figure's wizard tower.
"But, I've thought it through," Hiri lowered her head, her voice so soft that it was almost inaudible, "I still want to become the purple-cloaked figure's apprentice."
"Is that so? I want to know the reason. "
Josiah was very calm about Hiri's choice.
The only reason Josiah could think of was that Hiri feared the purple-cloaked figure. Rejecting a sage's invitation wasn't a wise choice.
"The reason is actually very simple."
Hiri touched the pendant on her neck and recalled the excited expression on Josiah's face when he looked at the illusion created by the purple-cloaked figure.
Having been by Josh's side for such a long time and witnessing the birth of three movies in a row, Ciri naturally knew what illusionary magic meant to the filming of 'movies'.
Similarly, Hiri had been watching this demon grow from a nobody to the present day, where almost everyone in Noland had heard of the name 'Belle' or 'Leon'.
Behind these famous movies and movie characters, Josiah's efforts were all witnessed by Hiri.
Hiri had been watching Josiah silently as a movie fan. She also knew that Josiah wouldn't be satisfied with just three movies. This chaos demon had greater ambitions, so …
She gently held the edge of her skirt as if she was cheering herself up.
Finally, Hiri suddenly raised her head and stared at Josiah with her silver-gray eyes. Her lips moved a little, and she poured out the words that had been buried in her heart.
