There were three people on Gondola when they left Starry Island, but only two came back.
Dodoro was left behind on Starry Island.
Angor wanted to take Dodoro with him, but Maya suddenly showed up and told him that she would give Dodoro some basic wizardry lessons. After some discussion, Angor agreed to let Dodoro stay.
Since Dodoro was going to stay at Starry Island, Angor decided to give Dodoro his luggage.
The silver bowl with the emblem of the Serpent of Eternity was also there.
Angor thought about studying the bowl, but he couldn't find anything useful, so he gave it back to Dodoro.
Surprisingly, Dodoro only took his underwear and left the bowl in Angor's hands. He said that the bowl was important to him and that he didn't trust anyone else.
Angor secretly asked Dodoro why the bowl was important to him. Dodoro couldn't give him an answer. He only said that he felt it.
Even though most adepts were rational beings, they would still follow the mystical feelings of their hearts. Sometimes, intuition was more useful than rational analysis.
For example, Angor himself had relied on "direct intuition" to escape from life-threatening situations many times.
If Dodoro felt that the bowl was important to him, it might really contain his secret. Angor was also interested in the bowl, so he agreed to let Dodoro keep it for now. When Dodoro was strong enough to protect the bowl, Angor would return it to him.
Now that everything was settled, Angor bid farewell to Dodoro.
On Gondola, Angor began to think about what he learned from his trip to Starry Island, as well as the secret of Dodoro's bowl. When they were about to arrive at Phantom Island, Sunders finally woke him up.
"Iron Granny told me that you hid in The Tributary as soon as you came back?"
"It's not that I'm avoiding them, it's just that …" He was always encountering people who wanted to ask him for alchemy or to rope him in, which annoyed him.
"Don't mind them. If they try anything again, just kill them," Sunders said coldly. Sunders added, "Fine. You can move to Phantom Island now. I'll be leaving soon, and I'll leave Phantom Island to you for the time being. Goode will help you too."
He paused for a moment before continuing, "You're still weak when it comes to spell variety. My library can be opened to you for now. I hope you don't disappoint me. "
Staying in The Tributary wasn't a good idea anyway. Angor considered for a moment and agreed.
"Where are you going, professor?"
Angor asked the same question back in Floating Mech City. Back then, Angor only cared about Sunders' "old friend" and didn't ask about it.
Sunders didn't want to tell Angor about this, but since Angor was one of the most influential figures in the wizarding world, he decided to tell him about it. "I'm going to the Abyssal Plane to help Master Monkey of the Moonfrost Alliance with a small matter."
As for the reason behind this "small matter" that could cause chaos in the southern region, Sunders did not mention it at all.
"Mister Moon? You're talking about the Ice Witch King? "Angor was a little surprised.
"Yes, that's him."
"Frigid Infinity" was Moon's title. However, the wizarding world was more familiar with his other title: Ice Witch King.
Moon's control over ice element had reached the peak of the southern wizarding world. That was why people called him the "Ice Witch King". It wasn't just a title. It was also an honor given to him by the wizarding world.
Also, Mister Moon was one of the strongest wizards in the entire southern wizarding world. He was currently a level-3 truth-finder wizard, only one step away from becoming a legend.
Angor didn't expect Sunders to leave Phantom Island just for him.
"Mister Moon didn't just invite me. He invited many organizations as well," said Sunders. Sunders spoke in a plain tone, "Don't think too much about it. Just stay at Phantom Island and make yourself stronger. You're already a level-3 apprentice, but you haven't chosen your main class yet. You still need to solve the problem of spell slots. That's enough for you. Don't worry about other things. "
Angor nodded. His training was progressing by leaps and bounds, and there were still too many gaps that he needed to fill up. He needed some time to settle them down.
As for choosing a main class, Angor had his own plan. However, he didn't think about spell slots yet.
A spell slot was a special position in the structure of a spiritual model. It could be used to permanently solidify a spell model. After solidifying the spell model, it would allow the wizard to cast spells instantly.
Normally, opening a spell slot was something that could only be done after becoming an official Magus. However, if an apprentice had a mature spirit model or a special channeling method, he or she could create a spell slot.
He only had half of Singularity Dispersive Meditation, which meant he couldn't create a fully mature spirit model yet. However, he was practicing a special channeling method, so creating a spell slot wasn't difficult for him.
Creating a spell slot as an apprentice would allow him to cast an instant spell.
Spell slots created as an apprentice could only be fixed as "cantrips", not "spells". But sometimes, the "cantrips" created by apprentices could bring unexpected results.
"As for the choice of cantrips, there are many recommendations in the study. You can read them and decide later. Of course, I hope that you — "He paused and shook his head." Never mind. Think about it yourself. "
Angor pricked up his ears to listen to what Sunders was going to say, but Sunders suddenly stopped talking. Angor was curious about what Sunders was going to say. But no matter how he asked, Sunders didn't seem to be going to tell him.
When they returned to Phantom Island, Sunders told Goode that Angor would stay here and take care of his daily needs.
From now on, Angor would stay at Phantom Island.
With Sunders' permission, Angor moved the Krakoks to the garden so that the Phantom Servants could take care of them from time to time.
As for Nano, Angor didn't restrict his activities. However, Phantom Island was full of dangers, and everyone here was a supernatural, so Nano spent most of his time indoors. Occasionally, he would come to the garden to talk with the Krakoks about crafting.
Time passed slowly as he immersed himself in his meditation.
Another week had passed.
During this time, Angor spent most of his time practicing. Occasionally, he would spar with Toby.
Normally, Angor and Toby were on par with each other. In fact, Angor was slightly stronger than Toby.
However, when Toby turned into a Griffin, Angor's chance of winning was greatly reduced. And if Toby used the Griffin's Fury, Angor would have no chance of winning.
However, Angor and Toby were only "sparring". If it was a fight to the death, the result might be different.
Besides, Angor rarely used his right hand when fighting Toby.
His right hand was strong, but sometimes it was too difficult to control, and it wasn't fully developed yet. Angor didn't want to lose control, so he rarely unsealed his right hand.
His actual combat experience and his own foundation were slowly increasing over the past week.
Apart from that, Angor also returned to the apprentice town to pack his belongings and visit his old friends.
To his disappointment, he only saw Dave and Prome. He didn't see Nausica or Sailum.
According to Davis, after returning to Brute Cavern, Nausica, Shan, and Shiliew were looking for someone in the dark. Dave didn't know who they were looking for, but Angor knew that it had to be Hookdick.
Later, they seemed to have found some clues, so they left Brute Cavern a month ago and hadn't returned since.
As for Sailum … Dave didn't know where he went. When Nausica went to Floating Mech City, Sailum disappeared. He said that he was going to fuse with his bloodline, but he didn't say where he was going.
Angor knew that Dave had a bottle of Azure Bloodline. Dave already told him about the great risk involved, but everyone had their own path. Since Sailum had made up his mind, Angor could only respect, support, and pray for the man.
After saying goodbye to Dave, Angor spent some time to buy some information from Bartterfly Pub.
It was about Hookdick.
But it didn't work. Hookdick never came back after going to Floating Mech City.
If Hookdick didn't come back, how did Nausica and Prome get the information? Or maybe they didn't leave Brute Cavern for Hookdick?
Without any further clues, Angor had to put the matter aside for now.
Angor returned to Phantom Island. One day, after fighting with Toby in Phantom Forest, he returned to his manor while panting heavily.
However, he ran into someone he hadn't seen in a long time.
It was Flora.
Angor was curious why he didn't see Flora for a long time. According to Sunders, Flora was still busy with the blood-melting incident at Parmigi Highlands.
The blood-melting incident had come to an end, but the culprit named "Blood-Melt Virus" was still a mystery. The virus, which even wizards couldn't escape from, completely attracted Flora's attention.
It seemed she wanted to use the virus as an opportunity to take that step forward.
Due to her crazy research, Flora had not shown up in public for a long time. Angor didn't expect to run into her today.
She was wearing a luxurious scarlet ponytail and holding an umbrella of the same color. She was flying out from the balcony of Sunders' study with bare feet.
Flora saw Angor as well.
Rumors about Angor had been spreading like wildfire. Even though Flora was studying the virus, she still heard about it from various sources.
But she only heard about it. Flora didn't really believe the exaggerated information in the rumor.
However, when she saw Angor in person, she was surprised, followed by a complicated expression.
It had been almost a year since she last saw Angor. She still remembered when she met him last year, he was still a level-1 apprentice who had just joined the wizarding world.
But now, he was already a level-3 apprentice.
When Sunders met Angor in Floating Mech City, Angor was still a level-2 apprentice. Sunders was also shocked by Angor's progress.
Even Sunders was surprised that Angor only advanced by one level.
This time, Angor improved by two whole levels, and it happened in only one year. How could she not be surprised?
However, after the initial shock, he felt a strong sense of defeat and complicated emotions.
