Wizard Immortality.

Chapter 32 Time is Merciless

The arrest warrant was just a minor incident.

The Death Rift Valley region is vast.

The geographical environment is complex.

The chances of Vic running into Amiya Vergara on his way back to the academy are slim.

Even if encountered.

He is now a seasoned apprentice, and even if he is no match for the enemy, he can easily escape.

last life.

Vic had a conflict with a criminal wizard.

Because they violate the principle of equivalence, these criminal wizards acquire power through methods far exceeding those of ordinary wizards, and their methods are so bizarre that they are beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Therefore, their actual combat strength generally far surpasses that of their peers.

Vic had extensive combat experience in his previous life, and possessed a wealth of knowledge accumulated through the Lich Life Box and advanced extraction techniques.

But he wouldn't dare say that he could easily defeat his opponent in a wild encounter.

Wizards are pragmatic.

There are risks involved.

Then we should try to avoid risks as much as possible.

After resupplying in Fog Town, Vic changed into his warhorse and set off back.

Fortunately.

His worst fears did not come true; everything went smoothly, and he successfully returned to the academy two months later.

rain.

The Gothic buildings of Black Tower College were shrouded in a light drizzle, resembling a bizarre dream.

The pointed roof of the tile is damp and dripping water.

The gargoyle statue stands against a thick, dark cloud, looking down from a high vantage point.

Because a criminal wizard was born in the academy, the entrances and exits are subject to very strict questioning.

Vic dismounted and waited for his apprentice to be questioned so that he could verify his identity at the academy.

There wasn't much water under the archway.

As stable as a mirror.

Clear and transparent.

Not long after.

The wizard apprentice on duty frowned, walked up to Vic, and said, "According to the academy's records, Vic, a student from the 733rd cohort, went out four years ago and has not returned since."

They have already been included in the list of deceased.

Tell me a name, and I'll have someone who knows you come pick you up.

The wizarding world is cruel and ruthless.

If one is even slightly defeated, one will die a gruesome death.

It's quite normal for a student with the strength of a knight to be placed on the death list after four years of training away from home.

After thinking for a moment, Vic said, "My fellow student, the wizard apprentice Aaron, he should know me."

The wizard apprentice on duty should know who Aaron is.

Take a look at Vic and remember his face.

He then sent his squire knights to the academy to look for the person.

About an hour later.

A tall, fair-skinned, and distinguished young man strode over.

Without waiting for the squires to report.

The young man laughed and said, "Vic, why did you take so long to come back? I was worried sick."

Upon seeing this, the wizard apprentice on duty bowed slightly to Aaron as a greeting and said, "Since Lord Aaron knows you, you may enter."

Your Mightiness?

One apprentice can make another apprentice use honorifics.

This indicates that he holds a high position within the college.

Vic glanced at the unfamiliar young man and could tell from some subtle expressions that he was still the same simple, dark-skinned, thin boy, Aaron, from back then.

But his demeanor was extraordinary, his voice was loud and clear, and he was full of confidence.

To tell the truth.

Vic didn't quite recognize him.

Wizards have keen observation skills and are good at controlling details.

Vic noticed that Aaron was wearing two gold-plated rings on his right hand, both of excellent quality and quite valuable.

It seems that Aaron has been doing very well at the academy during the years he was away.

Viktor returned alive.

Aaron's expression didn't seem fake; he was genuinely happy.

He even said with some annoyance, "Vic, you didn't act like a good friend in this matter."

You went out to train alone back then without telling me. I wasn't much stronger than you back then, but at least I could lend you some soul stones for emergencies.

I was heartbroken for a long time when the college put you on the death list.

Talking.

Two young students who had just enrolled this year bumped into Aaron and quickly bowed and made way for him.

Aaron remained unmoved, patted Vic on the shoulder, and walked straight past the two of them.

"Now that you've come back alive, I'll have a good drink with you no matter what."

The two stopped in front of a shop called "Future Automatic Assistant".

Aaron looked up at the GG sign and confidently introduced, "This is my shop, what do you think?"

Automatic assistants are auxiliary tools widely used by wizards.

The creator needs to have a certain understanding of astrology and have studied the discipline of astrologers in depth.

Flying magic pens, household brooms, and the like all belong to this category.

The latest novel is first published here!

In the vast majority of cases.

These items, which only moderately enhance combat power but are extremely valuable, are only purchased by wizards with deep resources.

It is also a symbol of identity and status.

Although Aaron is not a astrologer in the strict sense, his ability to support a shop shows that he studies astrology very diligently.

after all.

During the talent test back then, Aaron's understanding of astrology was only rated as average, while Vic and Aaron knew each other very well.

Enter the store.

The size and area are not large.

But it is fully functional, with different types of flying magic pens, crystal balls, and household brooms on the shelves.

The two busy trainees quickly stopped what they were doing and bowed.

Aaron explained, "They are the students I'm mentoring this cohort. They are very talented and hardworking."

He then gestured for the two trainees to move aside.

He has guests to entertain.

Vic, without any hesitation, sat down naturally at a round table and said, "Years ago, we were still students, and now you're already mentoring newcomers."

Aaron smiled helplessly and didn't reply.

He took a bottle of fruit wine infused with the mysterious plant 'Screaming Tuber' from the wine cabinet, poured two glasses, and sighed, "Time flies."

Vic reached out and took the fruit wine that Aaron offered.

Seeing that he seemed somewhat lost, he must have been thinking of something sad.

A moment of silence followed.

He took out a mental energy field defense ring, placed it on the table, pushed it in front of Aaron, and said, "This is a high-quality mental energy field ring."

You have helped me many times, this is a gift of gratitude.

Don't refuse.

Rings of this quality are extremely rare and valuable in the market, but Aaron didn't even glance at them.

Because their relationship doesn't require much pretense or exchange of benefits.

If we're only talking about interests, he stopped associating with Vic many years ago.

Aaron tilted his head back and took a swig of his drink, saying, "Vic, a lot has happened in the four years you've been gone."

I remember telling you that I used to pursue a girl.

I succeeded in the end, but our relationship only lasted a month. During that time, she went out to gain experience and never came back.

I have experienced loss.

Only a person can truly appreciate what they have.

This is why Aaron was so happy to see Vic return to the academy.

Vik had experienced this firsthand in his previous life.

Time is merciless.

As friends and loved ones die one by one, the tenderness in the wizard's heart will also vanish.

In the end, they became ruthless and cold-blooded.

Aaron shook his head, seemingly unwilling to discuss the topic further, and continued, "There's one more thing. Three years ago, Lu Ke died."

I know you two have a good relationship.

After you left the academy, he went out alone to buy knowledge notes, but was robbed and died outside, unable to fight back.

I retrieved the body and buried it in the cemetery behind the hill.

Luke is dead?

Vic remained calm and composed throughout, showing no change despite the devastating news.

He simply asked, "Who killed him?"
