The Lord of Ashes

This female apprentice is not a top genius. ▲𝐺𝑜𝑜𝑔𝑙𝑒 Search for 𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑐𝑜𝑚Read▲

In the entire regional Holy Tower Academy war, she was not very prominent, and her personal strength was only at the level of a high-level apprentice.

And it seems that the breakthrough has just happened not long ago.

But this female apprentice brought a temperament that other apprentices of Thain did not have - endurance and the determination to kill with one strike.

The harsh environment around her did not affect the dormant female apprentice at all. 🅆

Even though the sharp woodthorn grass had pierced her skin, it still did not make the female apprentice's body tremble.

This is a little guy who is very good at hiding herself, and it can be seen that she has made a careful plan before this action.

The pungent smell of the woodthorn bushes covered up the body odor and faint smell of blood contained in the female apprentice's body.

Because as a relatively low-end magic material, when the number of woodthorn bushes gathers to a certain extent, it can even cover up the detection spells released by the apprentices.

For example, in front of me, this senior female apprentice lurking deep under the woodthorn bushes had escaped the detection of an eleven-person magic team.

In this eleven-person magic team, one person is even a senior apprentice of the same level as her.

The senior apprentice probably could not have imagined that there would be someone hiding under the weakly poisonous woodthorn bushes.

The ensuing battle was exactly what Thain expected.

When this unknown eleven-member team entered the magic trap set by the female apprentice in advance, a surprise battle began.

With her outstanding magic trap setting skills and careful planning, this female apprentice brought a sudden thunder attack to the magic team once the incident broke out.

During the battle, the female apprentice maintained her composure.

The first person she dealt with was the most powerful senior apprentice. After forcing the opponent out of the trial space with several magic traps and a well-prepared spell, the female apprentice then started a calm hunting process.

During this period, although this female apprentice also had many flaws that made Thain feel like them.

But it is not easy to accomplish this by one person.

What made Thain nodded the most was that after the female apprentice's arm was stabbed by an ice pick from an intermediate apprentice of the enemy, she still did not panic too much and continued to fight at her original rhythm.

In the end, this senior apprentice, who was about to run out of magic power, actually used melee skills to repel one and kill two lower apprentices, which was a small feature that made people shine.

Of the eleven-member magic team, only two of them escaped when ambushed by the female apprentice.

In fact, given the female apprentice's condition at that time, her magic power and physical strength were at their limit. If the two apprentices did not escape, there was a high probability that they would kill each other.

But from the beginning to the end, this female apprentice displayed a calm and composed temperament that made it impossible for her opponents to figure out where she was.

After the battle, the female apprentice was not too greedy.

Her Holy Tower Badge has already collected half of the points for those who were killed and eliminated for herself.

The apprentices she killed actually had good magic items left behind, but due to factors such as their own condition and time, she quickly ran away without even looking at them.

Judging from her smooth retreat route, it was obvious that she had rehearsed this process many times beforehand.

"Talent, character, luck, and wisdom are all indispensable."

"This little guy reminds me a little of myself back then." Thain whispered with a sigh.

Thane thought back to when he was an apprentice in the dark arts.

If it were Thain back then, he would not have performed better than this female apprentice doing what he was doing.

Thain took a focused look at the opponent's attire. The camouflage suit was very suitable for the terrain, which was another factor in the female apprentice's success.

Coming from the Sunshine Tower of the Belen Empire, she was not wearing the most fashionable lace-trimmed magic skirt in the wizarding world, but was wearing a black and gray cover that resembled a rag bag.

Even her face was smeared with some black-gray powder. It was not dirt, but a special magic material.

When Thain was paying attention to this female apprentice, Meili, who had been quietly observing Thain, also noticed her.

Meili was wearing a blue-green long skirt at this time, which gave people a grand and dignified feeling.

However, the details such as the corners of this long skirt are painted with a little golden lace, which indicates that Meili, as a fourth-level Holy Tower dean, also pursues beauty.

Many of the traditional customs in the wizarding world extend from top to bottom.

Including during the current academy war, most magicians wore their usual clothes to show their own characteristics as much as possible.

Because magicians all work in groups and rarely have particularly close sudden battles, the little girl wearing special combat clothing is a rare exception.

"Why, have you seen the little guy that interests you?" Meili stepped forward and asked Thain in a low voice.

Thain withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Meili.

Focusing on her gold-rimmed lace skirt and white gloves, he suddenly realized that Meili was actually very beautiful.

And since he had a skin-to-skin relationship with Meili when he was traveling to the south coast as an official magician, it seemed that he had never touched Meili again after that.

But Meili remained consistent. Not only did she follow him to the Holy Tower of Ashes, she also dedicated herself to him in obscurity for so many years.

Thinking back on the little girl who followed him in the underground world, and now she has grown to such a graceful appearance, and also has a fourth level of life, Thain suddenly felt a little emotional.

Thain didn't speak and only stared at himself, causing a trace of blush to flash across Meili's fair cheeks.

Jessica and Lina, who were standing on the left and right sides of Thain's body, also cast their gaze over.

Thain said, "I did find a good one, but let's keep looking."

Meili also looked at the little girl that Thain was paying attention to just now, and said, "She is a magic apprentice from the Sunlight Holy Tower of the Belen Empire, not a student of our Ashes Holy Tower."

"Sean, you are so focused on the apprentices of other holy towers, but you don't look at the outstanding seeds of your own holy tower. Do you think that I, the dean, have not done a good job?" Meili asked with a smile.

"Of course not." Thain shook his head, "That little guy just reminds me of my old self. Isn't that how we all came here?"

Thain's words brought Meili and Lina back to their senses.

After following Thain and continuing to observe the female apprentice for a period of time, they indeed found something in common with themselves in this little guy.

"It's indeed good." Lina agreed.
