Magic Merchant Racial Anecdote

The cold wind howled, and the winter on this planet was always extraordinarily long.

In the mage's tower before dawn, the girl held a magic lamp and slowly climbed up the steps while holding onto the wet handrails.The deerskin high-heeled short boots made a rattling sound as they stepped on the blue stone bricks.

In the huge black tower that has been around for a long time, the air is full of bloody smell that cannot be washed away. The girl occasionally looks back, always feeling that there will be monsters rushing out of the darkness behind her.

She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down, but she couldn't help but quicken her pace.

This is the tower on the north side of the Leviathan Mage Tower. The tower has six floors, and the bottom floor is a special place for research specimens of 'magic creatures'.

The middle and upper floors are the exclusive area of ​​the master of the mage tower, the mentor Leviathan, which integrates laboratories, magic creature anatomy rooms, biological research rooms, living areas, and so on.

The girl's name is Cecilia, and she is one of the No. 15 "magic apprentices" who have just been promoted to official magicians this year.

And the reason why she visited the tower on the north side in the early morning is because from tomorrow onwards, she will officially become the new assistant of Leviathan's mentor, taking over from chief apprentice Alai.

Cecilia has always been a very self-motivated person, and it is a very rare opportunity for her to be the assistant of Leviathan's tutor.

So when she learned that she had obtained the qualification to enter the tower on the north side.

Cecilia suffered from insomnia for a long time.

The girl who was only in her teens hadn't developed the temperament that would later be flattered or humiliated. She tossed and turned on the bed with her eyes closed until late at night, but she was so excited that she couldn't sleep.

"It can't go on like this." She threw off the quilt and sat up.The magic clock by the bed walked quietly. At this time, it was less than three hours before dawn to report to the north side.

Cecilia was afraid that she would be late if she fell asleep, and she was afraid that if she didn't sleep now, she wouldn't have the energy to cope with the new work tomorrow.After thinking about it over and over again, she still couldn't hold back, and planned to take a look ahead of time, where she would work in the future.

Just take a look, she thought so, and put on the large magic robe hanging over the bed.

It was past four o'clock in the morning, which was the darkest time of the day, and Cecilia lived in a small independent room.She carried the magic lamp and walked all the way to the tower on the north side.

Time goes back to the present.

Cecilia, who was walking up the stairs on the third floor of the tower on the north side, had already regretted it for the one hundred and first time, making a decision on the spur of the moment.

The dark tower and the cold white light of the magic lamp stretched Cecilia's shadow for a long time. Looking from the side, it looked like some kind of monster with teeth and claws.

There was only one floor left before the laboratory where she was going to report tomorrow, and Cecilia silently encouraged herself.Just one look, one look at her and then go back to sleep.

She thought so, and finally set foot on the corridor on the fourth floor.

The structure of the mage tower corridor still maintains the appearance of the old era. Magic inscriptions are engraved on the dark stone walls, red tapestries are hung on the left and right as decorations, and the floor is luxuriously paved with large pieces of black marble.

Cecilia walked along the wall of the corridor. She once heard that the laboratory is in the third room on the fourth floor, just open the door.

After walking for less than 5 minutes, Cecilia successfully found the laboratory, but just as she was about to open the door, she heard some strange sounds.

Cecilia held her breath subconsciously and froze in place.

In the corridor with only emergency lights, there was an indistinct whisper. The voice was very weak, but it had a cold taste, like a blood-stained cold weapon, with a sense of sharpness.

"Who's there?" Cecilia took out a magic crystal from her bosom and asked vigilantly.

After all, it was the trained magician in the mage tower. After a short period of panic, she had completely calmed down.This is within the domain of the mentor Leviathan, and one can think of it rationally, there is no danger at all.

Cecilia stood there for a while, and the voice disappeared.

The corridor returned to its original silence, and a slight cold wind passed through the cracks in the stone wall. Under the premise of constant temperature magic, Cecilia still shivered uncontrollably.

She didn't delay any longer, and after seeing the appearance of the laboratory as she wished, she hurriedly left the tower.

In the magic tower in winter, the boring life still goes on.

Cecilia woke up very early today. She vaguely remembered that she had a strange nightmare after falling asleep last night, but she couldn't remember the content of the dream clearly.

She poured herself a bottle of recovery potion, put on a brand new magic robe, and carefully pinned on the chief badge before leaving the room.

The girl has long silver hair and sparkling eyes.With the help of the potion, although he only slept for less than three hours, he still seemed full of energy.

Although there is still a strange smell in the mage tower during the day, it has regained some popularity.Cecilia arrived at the laboratory in the northern tower very smoothly following the path she walked yesterday.

In the laboratory, Mentor Leviathan was still immersed in his experiments as always.

This magician, who is said to be more than 300 years old, still retains his youthful appearance, and the power of magic keeps his body at its peak.

He has light blond hair, and a pair of brown eyes are focused, and he is concentrating on separating the protective layer on the mermaid scales.

Cecilia's arrival did not attract his attention.

Seeing this, Cecilia didn't dare to rush forward to disturb her, so she just stood there tactfully, wanting to wait for Mentor Leviathan to finish her work.

In fact, Leviathan spent most of his time in the office on the top floor. His experimental assistant was not so much an assistant, but a person who was responsible for maintaining laboratory equipment.

Only Alai is the only exception. With his extraordinary talent in magic, he got the opportunity to conduct experiments with his mentor.

After Cecilia stood at the door of the laboratory for about half an hour, Leviathan finally looked up and noticed her presence.

He raised his head and looked at Cecilia critically. His eyes were not so much looking at a human being, but more like judging the value of an item.

Cecilia stood there nervously, and subconsciously straightened her chest.

"Clean up here." Leviathan retracted his gaze, and casually ordered Cecilia, and immediately walked around Cecilia, and walked out of the laboratory in two or three steps, leaving the girl alone, facing a messy experiment room.

Cecilia barely recovered after Leviathan walked away, and her palms were covered in cold sweat.Even though she had already been psychologically prepared, the close contact with this mentor still made her feel an unprecedented sense of oppression.

It was a biological instinct after life and death were mastered, making her scalp feel tight and her hands and feet numb.

But she quickly adjusted her mentality.This is a mentor, no matter what, she must complete all the tasks he gave, this is the job of the chief apprentice.

She spent the morning keeping the lab spotless, and didn't let out a long sigh of relief until lunch break, when she realized that her stomach was rumbling.

Cecilia thought about it, and finally decided to go to the cafeteria to eat. By the way, she can find someone to inquire about the rumors about the tower on the north side.

There is a cafeteria in the mage tower, and Cecilia has always been very popular. On the way to the cafeteria, people kept saying hello to her.

This is the result of her years of painstaking efforts.

The same batch of companions who entered the Mage Tower with her were bullied to varying degrees when they first came to the Mage Tower. When the strength is not strong enough, the weak can only work hard to survive.

Thinking of this, Cecilia couldn't help thinking of Alai again.

Only Alai was different from them.

That taciturn boy has enough strength to survive alone in the mage's tower without compromising to anyone, standing on a high place forever, looking down on these 'mortals'.

Cecilia sat on the seat in the cafeteria, and was rarely stunned.She always thought of the whispers she heard last night, the cold voice, a bit like Alai's voice...

"Senior Cecilia? Senior?" The little girl sitting opposite Cecilia couldn't help but yelled twice when she saw that she was in a daze. Shake twice.

Cecilia woke up from her thoughts and looked up at the little girl: "Molly? What's wrong?"

"I was just going to ask what's wrong, senior. I've called you several times! The food is getting cold." The little girl sighed pretentiously, and the end of her ponytail flicked a playful arc.

"I was just thinking about something." Cecilia smiled when she heard this, forked up the creamy pasta on the plate, and took two bites.It was indeed a little cold.

Molly tilted her head and looked at Cecilia for a while, then suddenly approached her, and asked a little teasingly: "Senior, what were you thinking just now? You thought so seriously, could it be... Do you want someone you like?"

"What nonsense are you talking about..." Cecilia retorted subconsciously, but remembered the voice she heard last night, she simply pursed her lips, lowered her head and stopped talking.

"Sure enough, you are thinking about Senior Alai, right?" The little girl said in a low voice when she saw this.Senior Cecilia likes Senior Alai, and this matter has long been spread among the younger 'magic apprentices'.

Cecilia didn't answer, just continued to eat in silence.

So what if you like it?she thought sarcastically.

In the world of the Mage Tower, only the pursuit of power is the most reliable.No matter how much Alai moved her heart, wouldn't she take his place as chief apprentice without hesitation?

Moreover, knowing that Alai had not been seen for several months, something might have happened...

That's right, 'something may have happened to Alai, who is the head of the magic apprentice', this news has long been an unspoken secret in the heart of the Mage Tower.

Cecilia still remembered that the morning after Alai was away, she went to the laboratory to discuss with him about the placement of the next batch of "Magic Apprentices", but she couldn't find anyone.

She asked all the way from the experimental area to the living area, and called the magic communicator countless times, but no one answered.

In the end, it was the Leviathan mentor who said lightly, 'I sent him to do something. ' Only then did she stop looking, and breathed a sigh of relief.

But after that day, a few months passed, and Alai never showed up again, and even the half-way experiment was taken over by other magicians.

A real person who got along with everyone day and night disappeared.But no one looked for him, no one was even willing to ask, where did Ah Lai go?

Because everyone knows that since Mentor Leviathan said that A Lai was going to do something, then he must have gone to do something, and there will never be a third possibility.

No one would be foolish enough to question a mentor's words.

Even Cecilia, who claimed to like Alai, chose to remain silent in the end.

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Senior Alai for several months, I don't know what he's up to." The little girl was still asking, showing great interest in Alai's affairs.

Upon hearing this, Cecilia turned her head to look at Molly.The little girl who was just in her early ten years old still had innocent and soft light in her eyes, she seemed... full of longing for the wonderful magical world.

This is actually not difficult to understand. After all, after Alai became the chief disciple, the treatment of the "Magic Apprentice" has been gradually improved. Official magicians who apply for the help of the "Magic Apprentice" also need to pass the qualification review. If the "Magic Apprentice" 'If you complain, you may also be disqualified.

Therefore, the recent generations of apprentices are much luckier than their generation, and their personalities are more lively.

Cecilia thought almost jealously.
