Wizard: I brought the wrong system...

Chapter 126 Mentor

"Alright, everyone, you can all leave now."

Yaro, who was waiting anxiously, suddenly heard a familiar voice and was overjoyed.

It's the wizard Bosco!

Pipit received the command. The majestic statue bowed slightly to the void, the strange plants retracted their fangs and claws and curled back into the soil, and all kinds of statues and reliefs returned to their original positions.

The entire street is gradually returning to its former peace and tranquility.

The aged figure of the wizard Bosco emerged from the void, walking on air towards Yaro.

Yaro quickly bowed: "Guide...Lord Bosco!"

In his excitement, Yaro almost forgot that Bosco had reminded him not to refer to him as "mentor" in public.

Bosco looked at the strong young man before him, sighed inwardly, and said, "Just call him mentor."

Oliver had been waiting to see what would happen, but after hearing their conversation, he couldn't help but turn pale.

Although Bosco was loyal to the Academy, he controlled the enforcement team and never showed mercy to troublesome apprentices, always strictly adhering to the Academy's rules.

For many apprentices who have some skill and like to cause trouble, this is the most terrifying "demon king".

People in charge are always hard to like.

Upon hearing Bosco's words, Yaro was taken aback: "Mentor... what happened?"

Something must have happened, otherwise Bosco wouldn't have asked himself to change his story.

Bosco glanced at Yaro: "Let's go inside and talk. It's really rude of you to be standing naked on this wall."

Finding that Bosco wasn't paying attention to him, Olive lowered his head and quickly fled.

……

When Yaro came out after changing his clothes, he saw Bosco holding the old, worn-out garment he had discarded, examining it closely as the phoenix pattern on it began to fade.

Hearing Yaro's footsteps, Bosco looked up and instructed, "This garment has undergone a slight 'Abyss Contract,' and has already established a slight connection with you. Don't discard it carelessly next time."

Yaro nodded to indicate that he understood.

After using the "Magic Strike" technique once, he had actually discovered many things that could be modified, including his underwear. Yaro also had some ideas for changes, but he was too busy lately and could only talk about it when he had time.

After giving him instructions, Bosco began to praise, "I thought you just came up with this trick out of the blue, but I never expected you to actually pull it off!"

"Based on your design, what you can use now is only the lowest level of 'Phoenix's First Cry,' right?" Bosco praised without waiting for Yaro's confirmation. "By utilizing the energy level of 'Abyssal Power,' when you activated 'Phoenix's First Cry,' you already possessed the strength of an advanced apprentice!"

Yaro had already compared himself to Knan Nabi and knew that he could easily defeat Knan Nabi when he activated "Phoenix's First Cry".

Unexpectedly, this was only the level of a senior apprentice.

"Still think this isn't enough?"

Bosco saw what Yaro was thinking and explained, "Advanced apprentices all have fixed spells, such as the mainstream Fireball, Arcane Ray, and Chain Lightning, which are quite powerful and can all affect the structure of your spell."

Bosco: "In addition to offensive tricks, they also have defensive force fields, and some of them will solidify some auxiliary tricks, such as grease, fear, force field knockback, etc., all of which are very effective against you."

"Even setting aside these fixed tricks, those who reach the advanced apprentice level will not have weak spellcasting abilities and may also possess different enchanted alchemical items."

Bosco concluded, "Advanced wizard apprentices are capable of guarding the Heart of the Jungle even when they're out there. Don't underestimate advanced apprentices just because you've seen many full-fledged wizards at the academy. Many experienced advanced apprentices may be stronger than some full-fledged wizards."

This is like how many high school students might have a higher level of knowledge than many college students.

Yaro suppressed his boastful thoughts and nodded obediently.

"I understand, mentor."

Having just finished addressing him, Yaro remembered his earlier question and quickly asked, "Master, what just happened?"

When this matter was brought up, Bosco immediately stopped smiling; he had been struggling with whether or not to speak frankly.

But what should I say?

Tell Arowana how dark the former Owl Wizarding Academy was?

Tell Yarrow how he obtains materials from the outside world to fill the academy?

Tell Aro how he seized benefits from other wizards, reformed the academy little by little, and revitalized Owl Academy, developing it into the Twoleaf Thorn Academy it is today?

Tell Aro how he pleaded with one powerful and mysterious wizard after another to join the academy, only to find that those wizards treated him like a stranger.

Why did Dora dare to defy him in front of so many wizards?

Isn't it because she knows she wouldn't dare punish him in front of so many people over a mere argument?

Isn't it because she knows she can't let go of the academy and doesn't dare to drive away her mentor?

Looking at the vibrant young man before him, Bosco seemed to see a reflection of his younger self.

The same high spirits, the same commitment to justice, the same extraordinary talent... well, the boy before me is even more outstanding than I was in the past.

He was about to die and had no time to protect the boy in front of him as he grew up.

So... let's just say it.

So... let go.

Bosco told himself this, but his heart was filled with immense pain, and his aged lips trembled.

for a long time,

for a long time,

Unable to make a sound.

"tutor……"

Yaro watched as Bosco's ever-straight back gradually, gradually, bent.

As I watched, a strange sadness crept onto Bosco's resolute face.

As it turned out, this seemingly invincible person began to show signs of vicissitude and aging.

Although Yaro considered his relationship with him to be only that close, he could only say, out of respect for Yaro's strength, "If you're unwilling... then forget it."

"There's nothing I'm unwilling about," Bosco forced a wry smile.

I'm really getting old. I can completely foresee the future, but I'm unwilling to open my eyes to it.

Why did the academy end up like this after a lifetime of hard work?

Bosco shook his head, sighed softly, and recounted everything that had just happened, including the oath he had forced the wizard "Dora" to take.

He also handed all the letters marked with the locations where Nicole Annis had appeared more than ten years before to Yaro.

Yaro listened quietly to Bosco's story.

I gradually came to understand my situation.

Just now, ever since her relationship with Bosco was exposed, she has been hated by the other wizards.

While the wizard Bosco was alive, things were fine, and I was still able to study normally at the academy.

But the wizard Bosco only has two or three years left to live, and when he passes away, he may face a series of blows.

Even a small amount of malice from a young child is something an ant cannot withstand.

Even a little bit of malice from a wizard is not something an apprentice can bear.

Not to mention... wizards!
