The Wizard World - Chapter 234

Chapter 234
Angele took out two tiny red eggs and handed them over to the two children .
"Here are some small gifts for you . Take care of them for me, will you?"
"Woah, the eggs of a Lulu Bird! Thank you!" Sophie took one of the eggs . "I have always wanted a lulu bird!"
Morrow held the egg in hand tight, looking joyful .
"Thank you!"
"You’re welcome . Come by my place the next time you visit your grandpa . " Angele smiled and pinched the girl’s cheek playfully .
"Ah, master, your hand is so cold!" Sophie stepped back and put her hands on the cheek .
"So, what do you say? You have time today, right? I just finished some of my tasks so I can introduce the school to you," Shiva turned to Angele and said .
"Sure, I just finished my experiment," Angele responded in a relaxed manner .
"There’s an anniversary festival going on in the school and my grandchildren joined one of the exhibitions . They asked me to be an audience . " Shiva patted Morrow’s head .
"No worries . I’ll take my time and explore the school . " Angele nodded .
They stayed in the living room and chatted for a while .
"Let’s go . Our flying mounts have arrived . " Shiva stood up upon hearing the noise made the eagles .
Angele and the two kids followed after the old man .
On the grasses outside, three humongous eagles’ reins were held tight by several fire spirits . Their wings were several meters long and all of them looked grand and majestic .
Shiva stepped forward and jumped on one of the eagles .
Angele and the two kids followed after him .
He sat on the back of the black eagle and held the saddle tight . The eagle rushed forward as it swung its wings and left the ground .
The three black eagles formed a triangle in the air .
Angele looked down and saw the fire spirits watching them leave . The chilling wind was blowing across the trees and the leaves were dancing in the air .
It was early in the morning . The sky was blue but the gentle sunlight did not bring enough warmth to Angele’s body .
He pulled his collar up and lowered his body . His eagle was the slowest among the three . It seemed like the eagle was having some trouble trying to speed up .
They went past the forest . Angele started seeing rivers, lakes, and several wizards’ territories hidden among tiny trees . There were also several towns built by the wizard families around .
The black eagles finally left the Six Ring Area after passing by two towns and there was a long twisted black wall right below them .
"Public area is right ahead . Let’s lower the altitude and prepare for landing . " Shiva buffed his voice with energy particles .
"Got it," Angele responded right away .
The two black eagles slowly lowered the attitude and Angele saw a city that was not surrounded by city walls below .
The city was built on the top of a hill in the plains and the distance between each building was relatively large when compared to other cities that were similar in size .
He heard the noise made by the crowd on the street as the eagle approached the city .
There was a parade going on the streets . People were throwing diced up green leaves to the air on the back of boars and buffalos . There were also kids chasing each other beside the bards and the clowns .
Small vendors were giving people food and drinks for free .


*BAM*
Something exploded down there and the crowd started cheering .
The blue fireworks were shot into the sky and exploded . They were created using energy particles and were popular during festivals .
The three eagles slowly landed on top of the tallest building in the center of the city .
The light-yellow roof of the building looked like the top of a portabella mushroom and there were around five people waiting there .
A middle-aged man with a black mustache approached them as the eagles landed .

"Master Shiva, you’re finally here . Master Singerad has been questioning me for hours…" The man looked helpless .
Shiva jumped off the eagle and patted its head . "What’s the matter? I have already finished all my tasks, I believe . "
"Well, it's the security of the parade . We need you to set up defensive magic circles in certain areas . It’s the priority right now . "
"Really? Fine…" Shiva turned to Angele . "Sorry, Green, there’s something I have to take care of . You can explore the school with my grandchildren first . I’ll come find you later . "
"It’s fine, grandpa, we know the way! Don’t worry about it," Morrow interrupted .
"We’ll show the school to the kind and generous master Green!" Sophie emphasized on the word ‘generous’ .
Angele shook his head and chuckled . "Well, I’m counting on you . "
"Take care of my guest for me . " Shiva found a wizard apprentice and ordered him . He then quickly left the roof with the man with a mustache and started chatting about the security issue as they walked .
Angele jumped off the back of the eagle and landed on the ground .


"Huh? Is this really a building…?" It felt like he was standing on something soft but elastic .
Sophie walked to Angele and answered loudly, "It’s a mushroom, master Green!"
"You can just call me Green . For real? This is a mushroom?" Angele was surprised . He stomped his feet several times, and it did feel like stomping on a soft blanket .
The wizard apprentice waiting on the side was a cool beauty with short hair . She walked to Angele quickly .
"Master, my name is Fir . Where do you want to go first? It’s the 100th anniversary of the school and there are many interesting events going on . "
"I’ll let them decide . Let’s go to the streets first . " Angele pointed at Sophie and Morrow .
Morrow walked in the front and the two left the mushroom building . A light wizard accompanied by two wizard apprentices behind him approached them right away .
"Master Green, master Shiva asked me to give you a tour of the school . My name is Merrat . "
In front of the group, there was a shell-shaped open platform that was decorated with red, blue, and yellow flowers . The banner over the platform said: 100th Anniversary Award Ceremony .
There were more than a hundred Knights and wizard apprentices sitting in front of the platform and on the first row, there were two light wizards . All of them were staring at the platform without making any noise .
A female wizard apprentice in a red dress was reading people’s names from a piece of leather paper . Angele had no idea why they were being awarded .
"Just tell me some general information about your school first . " Angele stood by the exit of the mushroom building and started talking to Merrat .
"Sure . " Merrat started introducing, "The name of the school is Cross . Our organization has a very long history and we also have the 4th largest underground library in the whole Nola . It’s what we’re proud of .
"The school is divided into three major areas—the dorms, the classrooms, and the library . There are only five big buildings in the area, including this mushroom building . The members of the organization don’t have to stay in the school all the time . They just need to complete their shifts in the three major areas . " Merrat stopped for a second and continued, "There are 19 formal wizards in the school and around 6 of them spend most of their time in the school . The number of the wizard apprentices is around 200 and most of them are from the local wizard families . "
Angele was wearing a white robe and he was a stranger to the students here . Some of the wizard apprentices on the seats started whispering after seeing the unfamiliar face .


The wizards on the first row also noticed Angele’s presence . One of them turned around and greeted Merrat . He then realized Merrat was taking care of the guest so he decided to focus on the award ceremony .
"Thanks . Let’s get moving then . The school doesn’t sound that big . " Angele slightly nodded . He had collected some information about the school before coming here .
A Gas stage wizard like Shiva was rare in the school and the only Liquid stage wizard was the president . The school had a long history and strong background, but it was not very famous in Nola .
Angele raised his head slightly .
The enormous mushroom buildings were the signature features of the school .
All the mushroom buildings had doors and windows on their surfaces . They looked the buildings from the fairy tale .
Five mushroom buildings formed a circle around the city and in the middle, there were several white stone houses .
Merrat showed Angele all the mushroom buildings quickly .
It was not a large school and it had the similar size as the school in Marua Harbor .
There were many young wizard apprentices reading books on the street . Stone chairs and patios were built in the small gardens alongside the main street .
All the wizard apprentices bowed to Angele as they passed by, it seemed like they were well-educated .
Angele’s main purpose of his visit was the World Stone Shiva had mentioned before .
He had just created something interesting with the flesh acquired from the Nightmare Realm . Although he was not sure how effective it would be, it should be better than the illusion signet .
Angele wanted to visit the Nightmare Realm as many times as possible so he could collect more extremely rare resources .
However, the great harpy was losing its energy after Angele came back from the Nightmare Realm . It seemed like there was a limitation on entering the realm using this way . Angele thought that the reason was he was not a true inheritor of the harpy and he could not resupply the harpy with the proper energy . The great harpy would lose all her energy sooner or later .
