Not a Witch

Maybe, just like the rumors back then, this senior Rochelle is the reincarnation of an angel.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting."

After being confirmed, several guards apologized quickly, and then let them go. Lorraine Hill didn't blame them at all. After all, he hadn't been back for a long time, and there was no news after graduation. Many people probably don't remember it.

Thinking back to their students in the past few years, the most famous one is the Red Queen Lily of the Empire, followed by the pure iron general star Darcy, the commander Niya of the Red Flame, the captain of the Black Sails Aliena, and then It is the smiling necromancer Erlo, the gorgeous alchemist Letis, the forest fairy Atati, and so on.

After boarding the special magic locomotive, Lorraine Hill sat by the window, then the magic locomotive started and drove towards the bridge.

Under the bright summer sun, the river is azure blue, and the long bridge crosses the wide river like a white line.

The wind on the river surface was mixed with water vapor, blowing continuously, blowing the hair of the passengers up. Looking at the rippling long river in front of them, many people felt relieved.

Speaking of which, I haven't been back for a long time.

Lorraine Hill looked at the blue river full of nostalgia, and remembered the night when he was in the first grade and looked at the stars by the river with his classmates.How many of the wishes they made at that time have been realized, and how many have been gradually forgotten.

Time suddenly passed.

"Qiaodun College is here, we will stop here for 5 minutes, then we will go to the central school building, and then we will go to High Tower College." The driver said a few words through the device on the car, and then got out of the car to drink some water.

The students came down in twos and threes, talking to each other, talking about the recent exams, club activities, and celebrities in the college.

"The Codex class is so difficult to learn. If I had known, I wouldn't have entered Qiaodun College, alas." A student complained a little loudly to his friends.

"Recently, the college has added Crancia's legal system, which is more complicated than the previous noble law. This is not counting the commercial law that was often taken in the past. Why do we need to study these things at Bridge Pier College? I'm not going to be a general in the future. ."

"This... Maybe if you know the law, you can make better use of it. Didn't the Orientals say that everything should be righteous?" Another student rubbed the hair next to his ear, feeling a little embarrassed He was afraid that the people around him would be attracted by the loud voice.

"But what I yearn for is the romance of galloping across the battlefield. I always feel that reality has deceived me." The student was still quite aggrieved.

"If one ride is worth a thousand, then you should go to practice the sequence of dragons, right? Did you go to the wrong place?"

"Is that so? But when I was young, I admired General Darcy the most. He graduated from Bridge Pier College. He is the most shining general in the empire for hundreds of years, and he was born as a commoner."

"He has almost never failed on the battlefield. Even in the most difficult environment, he can kill a bloody path."

"This is true. I heard that the only regret is that senior Darcy did not win the 'Champion of Breaking the Army' when he was in the academy. There were too many geniuses in those years. Until now, the 'Black Water Lily Club' in the Walled City Academy It is still strong, and the name of the 'Black Rose Queen' is circulating."

"This club is still firmly in control of the major groups of the Walled City College. It is the hidden leader among the students, leading the students of the Walled City College to win many competitions."

"Moreover, the current empress of the empire came from this club in the past, so she has a high status among the students of the empire."

Several students were talking about walking towards the tall fortress, and there was a sound of trampling horseshoes in the distance. It seemed that the students were organizing a new round of confrontation exercises.

The two hottest clubs in Bridge Pier College are from Crancia and Empire respectively, and they are the most fierce rivals to each other.

Following the magical locomotive, Lorraine Hill got off the car until he reached the High Tower Academy.

The gray and white marble platform remains unchanged, and the snowy peaks in the distance make people feel slightly cool.Lorraine Hill looked up at the white tower on the top of the mountain in the distance, and glanced curiously at the stargazing room on the tower.

Since the college's accident that year, Si Ye no longer served as the dean of the High Tower College, but was replaced by other teachers in the college.

Do you want to visit Xia Siye and Chris now? I don't know if these two witches have recovered from the changes in the world that year.

Just as the silver-haired girl was thinking, the puppet in her arms moved slightly, allowing the girl to wake up.

Immediately, a mage with a gold-rimmed shawl on a white background and a black robe came over. He wore a sighing cross star badge on his chest, bowed to salute the girl, pressed his chest with one hand, and then stood up.

"Welcome, Your Highness Lorraine Hill." The girl was slightly surprised when she spoke, and then she was relieved and nodded when she saw that no one else was paying attention.

"Are you a member of the Sage Society?"

"Yes, Your Highness, please follow me." After finishing speaking, he simply motioned and guided the girl to a tall tower on the side of the mountain. Along the way, the students all around avoided her, as if held by an invisible hand. Shrouded in general water waves.This kind of avoidance is not a conscious choice, but closer to unconscious stepping aside and ignoring, as if there is no such person in front of him.

Leading Lorraine Hill to a plain gray tower, the mage in black and white robe stopped and opened the tower door.

"We just received the news of your arrival in Emenas this afternoon. In a hurry, there are only three official sages waiting here. If necessary, you can get to know them first, and other sages will arrive one after another within a week. Qi. This conference has convened most of the members of the Sage Association, and I hope that you, Your Highness, can also participate."

"I see." The girl nodded, and then walked into the gray rock tower

After entering it, there are not many decorations in the tower, only two copper candlesticks are placed on both sides of the stairs to illuminate the inside of the tower.And judging from the incomparably smooth surface of the stairs, it should have been used for a long time.The green shoots and vines that popped up from time to time between the gaps in the wall also proved the girl's conjecture.

Walk up the stairs, spiral up, and finally reach the top of the tower, push open the stone door, and a slightly empty hall is revealed.

Stone chairs and stone tables are distributed in the hall in a circular shape. In the center is the ground engraved with the magic circle, which contains a lot of magic power and emits a faint gleam.

There are no stone pillars in the hall, and there are windows around it. You can see the snow-capped mountains in the north and the campus in the south. The ventilation is good, but because it is too wide, the center of the hall is a little dark.

These tables, chairs and positions surround the center like a concentric circle, but at a glance, it seems that there is another cross line dividing the concentric circle into 4 pieces, leaving a spacious corridor.

At this moment, most of the seats were empty, and there were only three sages in different clothes sitting at the table, waiting for Lorraine Hill's arrival.

"Hello." The girl nodded her head and looked at these people.

They look about 40-60 years old, some of their hands are full of calluses, and their bodies exude the power of the order of war, which makes people feel scared at first sight.

The other is an elf with pointed ears. She sits at the table and looks curiously at the silver-haired girl who walked in, her pupils full of curiosity.

The last one is a white-haired old man. He wears thick glasses and flips through the books in front of him with bad eyesight, as if he is looking for and thinking about something crucial.

"Welcome His Royal Highness Lorraine Hill, or your participation will make this discussion more meaningful." The elf woman welcomed the girl.

"The others are not here yet, some are on the way, and some are still sleeping,"

"So, taking advantage of this time, let me introduce to you the current state of the Sage Association, as well as the situation you may encounter." She tried to speak in a more peaceful way, and the sage of Clancia, Talk to the Witch of the Stars.

Text Volume Chapter 76 Elf Sage

"At present, except for a small number of members of the Sages' Association, they have joined in the past five years. In addition, because of the outbreak and subsidence of the disaster ten years ago, the members of the Sages' Association today are not as good as they used to be. many...."

Under the introduction of this elf woman, Lorraine Hill had a general understanding of some recent developments.

Since the Sun Crown quelled the vortex of chaos, there is no longer a need for a large number of personnel to guard in various places, and the demand for personnel is much less. In addition, because of the rebellion within the Sage Association last time, the trust of all ethnic groups in the Sage Association has declined, so Funding and other support have been reduced a lot.

It can be said that the strength of the Sage Association has shrunk a lot now, and it is difficult to restrict the witches like in the past. In order to balance, it is now necessary to issue invitation letters widely, hoping to gather more power into the Sage Association.

"For the stability and future of the Ivar world, it is necessary to unite the power of all people." She said so.It can be seen that this elf woman has a high degree of agreement with this ideal.

But this is not the case for the other two sages beside me. One of them is from the empire and is the marshal of the former empire. Although he looks only in his 40s and 50s, he is actually more than 100 years old. The last time he stepped on the battlefield More than 40 years ago, after retiring from the army, he joined the Sage Association. It is also a rare member of the Sage Association from the past.

Another old man with white hair and a long beard is even older, nearly 200 years old. He is a sage who experienced the "Battle of the Broken Bow" in the previous generation. He is famous for studying ancient history, although his strength is average. , but has a high prestige in the Council of Sages.

The two sages nodded to Lorraine Hill's arrival, and then continued to remain silent. It seemed that they neither welcomed nor hated them.It's not so much that they don't like Lorraine Hill, it's better to say that they keep a respectful distance from the group of witches.

'Although they were once human, they are no longer human. 'This is the motto left by a certain elder of the Sage Society in the past.

Compared with humans with limited lifespans, the strange qualities of witches will eventually lead them to completely different paths.

After some conversation, Lorraine Hill became acquainted with the three of them briefly. Soon after, the meeting ended and everyone dispersed.

"Want to go eat something together?" The elf sage came slowly, the small bells on the blue hair collided with each other, with a light rhythm.

"Okay." The girl nodded, and she didn't really hate it.

"Then come with me." Seeing that Lorraine Hill agreed, she smiled a little happily.

The two walked in the white corridor of the High Tower Academy. Along the way, they could see the vast mountains outside and the central school building in the distance.

"Lorraine Hill has also stayed in the academy for a while. In fact, I only recently learned about your identity." The elf woman walked ahead with a book in her arms, turning her head to talk from time to time.

"Well, I was quite curious at the time, because I'm not a witch who has existed for too long." Lorraine Hill nodded, and stroked the white stone pillars on the side of the corridor with her fingers.

"It's a great honor. It's a pity that I taught at the High Tower Academy in the past, so I haven't met you."

"It feels like talking to you is similar to other sages." She sighed and said a few words with a happy expression.

"What will the other witches do?" Lorraine Hill turned her cheek curiously.

"Their words seem to be covered with a layer of impenetrable fog. It is difficult to use ordinary people's thinking to guess what they are pursuing and thinking." The elf sage shook his head, seeming very distressed.

After the two walked for a while, the elf sage suddenly asked.

"Do you know the original history of the Sage Society?"

"I've heard a little bit about this, it should be the union of heroes."

"That's right, the first members of the Sage Society were heroes who led people to resist chaos in the disaster thousands of years ago."

"They come from all races and races. In the dark age when the country collapsed and the order did not exist, they led people from all over the world to survive the crazy erosion. Finally, they united together and with the assistance of the angels, they defeated the doomsday disaster. .”

"After that, in order to prevent the disaster from spreading again, the Sages Association was established and a college was established in Emenas."

"And most of the descendants of those heroes became the founders of various countries after the disaster. It can be said that there are all kinds of countries, large and small, at the beginning of the third era, and they are all inextricably linked to sages."

"That's right. At that time, the sages would have incomparably powerful power. Whether it's prestige, righteousness, or overall strength, they were at their peak. It was also from then on that mortals began to appear on the world stage, and the influence of witches was greatly reduced. inhibition."

"It was also at that time that the new witches were no longer raised by previous witches, but were raised by members of the Sages' Society."

"This later also planted a crack for the division of the witches in the country of Oz. As a result, the witches who experienced pain no longer trusted the Sages, and gradually drifted away from the world. And our Sages also slowly lost Knowing about the witches of the past, I don’t know if they still exist in the world, and what their identity is now.”

"It's sad, I have to say."

"The two most powerful forces in the world are at odds with each other."

"And the sages are mortals after all. Under the baptism of time, they have been replaced from generation to generation. The latecomers gradually no longer understand the power and influence of the chaos disaster, and instead become curious about that power."

"If a few decades ago, there were still many witches in the Sages' Association, they wouldn't let some deviant ideas spread freely."

"Perhaps." The girl nodded at this, but shook her head again.

"But people have a hard time believing and accepting experiences they haven't experienced themselves."

The only lesson history teaches man is that he never learns any lessons from history.

This sentence is definitely biased, but it also reveals the nature of creatures very well.If you have never experienced the pain yourself, you will probably not understand how heavy the pain is.

Humans question authority, challenge rules, break everything, and believe that they are unique existences. This is the ignorance of life, and it is also the vitality of life, which is so charming and crazy.

"arrive."

During the conversation between the two, they also arrived at a restaurant in the High Tower Academy.It has a white curved dome, and a clear spring of melted snow flows down from one side of the main hall. Next to the dining table is an extremely tall window, surrounded by green vines on both sides, and unknown white flowers bloom on it.

There were not many people in the restaurant in the afternoon, only a small number of students were dining here. They wore black robes with fringes and talked softly. Occasionally, the sound of porcelain plates and knives and forks could be heard in the empty hall.

"Two servings of avocado barbecue, both with red pomelo sparkling juice." The elf sage also ordered the one with Lorraine Hill.

"Okay, wait a minute." The staff memorized it, nodded, and began to prepare.

"Let's sit down first, actually, I want to talk with you for a while." The elf sage sat down.

"By the way, I haven't introduced myself well."

"My name is Vestana, a forest elf, one of the fifteen seats in the Emerald Court, and also the representative of the forest elves in the Sage Council."

"Nice to meet you, Great Sage of Crancia, Unfallen Star, Witch of Eternal Wind, Lorraine Hill."
