The Dean Has Arrived

I was born in the Slanath Highlands. That is the most desolate place in the entire Eastern Plains, so that those of us who have lived there for generations are called wastelanders.

My parents have been fighting for the continuation of the ethnic group all their lives, fighting with gray dwarf warriors, dark elf assassins, and various monsters in the highlands.

However, my parents died. The duergar beheaded my father, and the falcon ate my mother's body. The last approaching orc army completely destroyed my homeland.

I became the only survivor. Or rather, I was the only one saved.

Then I became a vagrant, struggling alone on the line of food and clothing, and was looked down upon and despised by countless so-called "high-class people".

Naturally, there was no food, and even other people's leftovers were already a godsend to me at that time.

'This world is really unfair. ’ Sometimes I think that too.

Why is it that some people are born with high beds, soft pillows, rich clothes and good food, but it is so difficult for me to survive?

Until the second time I met the benefactor who saved my life.

On that day, she was wearing a red Scottish hat, a matching red plaid dress, and a beige jacket. She was carrying a large suitcase on her back that didn't match her petite figure. She had a gentle smile on her face. Doing a puppet show for dirty kids like me.

With a gentle expression like a big sister, it is completely impossible to see that she is the kind of strong person who can end a war by herself.

'Please accept me as an apprentice! ’ What was I thinking at the time? All in all, when he came back to his senses, he had already knelt down on the bluestone brick floor. pleaded with her.

At that time, it felt like seeing the only relative.

She probably recognized me too. Covering her mouth with her small hand, she showed a surprised expression.

‘I also want to be a magician, like you, someone who can reverse fate! ’ I lay on the ground, pressing my forehead against the dirty ground, begging desperately.

'Turning fate... This is a subject that even great magicians are troubled by. In fact, even the existence of the so-called fate, the Qiyao Master Society has not yet made a conclusion. ’ She replied with a smile: ‘Even if you become my student, you probably won’t be able to learn that kind of thing. '

'As long as there is strength. You can definitely change your destiny! '

I say so. At the same time, I thought so firmly in my heart.

"So you look at fate like that..." She nodded as if confirming something: "But unfortunately, I don't plan to teach students. '

Of course I won't just give up.

I have been following her ever since. When she performed the puppet show, she hid and watched; when she packed her bags. Follow her steps far away; only when she camps. to look for things like food and water to survive.

This kind of life naturally made it impossible for me to find regular leftovers. So my recipe can only be expanded to all the food that can be found on the roadside. Includes bark and grubs inside.

Until one day, she seemed to be tired of me following her all the time.

That day, she spent an afternoon. Assembled a puppet that looks like a tiger, with a cockpit and a roof on its body.

Then, one night when it was pouring rain, she escaped in a golem.

I tried my best to chase, but it was no use at all. The legs of a human being are nothing compared to the limbs of a puppet. In the end, I could only watch the figure gradually disappear into the dark rain.

My feet were still running, and the cold rain poured into the only piece of clothing I had, robbing me of my body temperature and making my body heavier and heavier.

But the coldest thing is my sinking heart.

Why is it not working? I just want to be like ordinary people, able to eat enough every day, wear unpatched clothes, and sleep in the house at night without worrying about being snatched away by wild animals.

Is even such a wish too extravagant for me?

Unknowingly tripping over the unconscious foot, the whole person fell into the muddy water, letting the bean-sized raindrops hit the body. ‘Sure enough, fate cannot be reversed. '

Tears flowed from the eye sockets unstoppably, mixed with rain and mud.

dad, mom.

I have worked very hard to survive.

I tried my best and gritted my teeth to survive.

So, it doesn't matter if you close your eyes now, right?

So, it doesn't matter if you give up hope now, right?

I really want to see you...

Darkness struck and consciousness was interrupted. In the end, I seemed to see something appearing in the rain.

World of Warcraft? I heard that if the throat is bitten off at once, it seems that the death will not cause too much pain...

...

When I woke up again, I found myself in a small room, lying on a small bed.

Is this the kingdom of heaven?

Carefully burying my head in the quilt, feeling the softness made me feel happy from the bottom of my heart.

'Are you awake? ’ At this time, it was not the angel who appeared in front of me, but the magician.

She put a bowl of green potion on the bedside table: "Drink this bottle of potion quickly, otherwise you will be in trouble if you get some strange disease after drenching in the rain for so long... How annoying are you little guy?" Don't worry. '

Didn't she run away? Why is it here? Could it be that she saved me again?

A series of questions popped up in my head.

‘For things like magic, depending on the user, the final effect is also different. ’ She looked at me, and suddenly said something strange: ‘Just advocating the combat power of magic, it’s easy to end up on the road of just using magic to hurt others, so I don’t want to teach you magic. '

After a pause, she stared into my eyes and continued: 'However, if you are willing to make three promises with me, it doesn't matter if you become my first student. '

Thinking about it now, the agreement between her and me was just a verbal agreement.

No magic contract was signed, not even a paper contract. There is no actual binding force at all, and an agreement reached purely by virtue of trust.

Later, I started to learn magic from her.

Although I am a little sorry to my parents for saying this, those two years should be the happiest two years since I was born.

Every day, she will carefully teach me all kinds of magic knowledge. Even if my talent is not good, it is very difficult to learn, and my magic literacy is growing slowly, but she shows no sign of impatience at all. On the contrary, she explains it in more detail. , always for my sake.

In my spare time every day, I will also help her maintain those precious dolls, and at the same time read the magic book she carries to enrich myself.

But the happy time is short-lived.

When I became a novice magician, she quietly disappeared from my life.

All that remained were the wand she used as a walking stick, and the big box that contained her precious doll.

Since then, I have been traveling the Eastern Plains with a wand and a box on my back.

Although it is in the name of increasing experience and improving horizons, I know very well in my heart what I have been looking for.

my teacher.

Good to see you again.

I still have a lot to say to you.

If possible, I still want to be with you.

But the reality is cruel after all. Even after traveling the entire Eastern Plains, I never saw her again.

Even, even for a little bit, I didn't even get any news about her.

Finally, when I passed the small village at the foot of the Angola Mountains, I saw the girl who looked somewhat similar to her. I couldn't help thinking of accepting her as a student.

In fact I do the same.

It's a pity that I haven't been able to pass on my knowledge to her, and the accident happened again. Because of my carelessness, I was attacked by an arrow porcupine and was on the verge of death.

don't want to die.

Don't want to die at all.

Obviously there are still many things to do.

But I know very well that my time is numbered.

'This world is really unfair. '

Childhood thoughts once again entangled in my mind.

In the end, they couldn't escape...

"My, Xi Wei Edric's fate..."

——In Edric College Castle——

"This is a miracle that belongs only to me."

Xi Wei looked coldly at the trembling monster in front of him.

"After accepting and inheriting the sorrow, pain and despair that I have been avoiding before, the miracle obtained through the sublimation of the great magician."

Let the soul from the earth resonate and merge with the lonely soul in this world, and finally produce a unique miracle-level magic.
