Chapter 314

Wedge. Master apprentice

(this story is purely fictional. It only represents Lao Lu's love for kelsugard and Mr. bigworth. How can a cat lover be a bad person?)

Dalaran's sunshine is always cold.

Mages with mysterious knowledge don't like to let the hot sun disturb their thinking. Moreover, in the group of arcane masters, there is a saying that the rise of temperature will make the magic elements become quite active, which is not a good thing for the precise research school.

So when laying the magic array of the mage City, they specially fixed a cooling magic on it. Although many people don't like this kind of sunshine without temperature, magic is magic, and can't tolerate any mistakes.

Kelsugard stood by Dalaran fountain, anxiously looking for something.

He was wearing a thick black robe, on which twelve magic lines were used to draw magic circles representing at least four different effects. Just this robe, put in the black market, can be exchanged for enough money that a small town's residents can't earn in five years.

Of course, such a precious robe is not common in Dalaran, but it is his privilege and no one is dissatisfied with it.

As the chief disciple of antonidas, the most intelligent wizard, and the reserve member of the six member parliament, Kel'Thuzad has this right, although he does not feel special about it.

He is a researcher, a genuine academic mage. In popular language, he knows magic very well, but only "understands". Before that, he didn't even shoot his magic at even one of the bandits, which doesn't prevent kel'sugard from becoming one of Dalaran's most outstanding and mysterious mages.

Academic schools like him, who devote all their lives to the study of endless magic and mysteries, account for at least one third of the whole Dalaran mage.

They do not fight, but they are Dalaran, the magic city, the cornerstone of the Magic Kingdom.

But now, calmness, calmness, precision and indifference, the qualities that researchers must possess, have disappeared from Kel'Thuzad's face. Under the black hood that covers her hair, she has an anxious, even slightly flustered face.

His skin was full of the abnormal whiteness that he had been in the dark for a long time, his beard was not even taken care of, his hair was in a mess, his face was thin, and his body was slightly bent, but all these bad features were completely smoothed out in those eyes.

Even the most rude guy can see a light called wisdom in these eyes.

But at this time, kelsugard was remorseful.

Last night, Gianna, the second disciple of the tutor, passed the test of senior mage. Even the strict tutor broke the rule and opened a bottle of moonshine wine 100 years ago to celebrate the birth of Dalaran's most outstanding talent.

Kerr sugarde, who is not good at talking, also expressed his congratulations to his younger martial sister. But after two glasses of wine, her consciousness became blurred. In the morning, everything was still there. The thick books, the topics she studied, and even the snacks Gianna gave him were still there.

Only the most important thing disappeared.

The gold coin.

It's an ordinary gold coin of Lordaeron, but it's the last Memorial left by kelsugard's parents. It's a precious thing for him. The most important thing is that he engraved his heart on the gold coin with photo magic in his previous loneliness. If he was picked up by others

Kelsugard can be sure that he will become a laughing stock, and his respected tutor and younger martial sister who just stood on the stage of magic hair will also be involved by him.

"We have to find... Find that gold coin!"

But even after searching all the streets and alleys of Dalaran, the gold coin still disappeared. Finally, he came to the fountain of Dalaran.

Standing next to the beautiful fountain, kelsugard looks at the fountain like a mirror. Under the water, there are layers of coins stacked in it. This is Dalaran's tradition. Everyone who comes to the city is entitled to throw a coin into the fountain.

They often have their own wishes.

It is said that only those who can help others fulfill their wishes can catch a coin in the fountain with a fishing rod, and then good luck will come to him.

Many people think it's just a legend of mages, but kelsugard knows it's not just a legend. This fountain was made by the first generation of Dalaran mages. It's hard to say why they left it, but it does contain special magic that ordinary people can't imagine.

Of course, it's not a gift of good luck, but researchers like kelsugard believe that only those who have a destiny can find their own coin in this small pool.

Young scholars can only hope that they will throw their gold coins into the pool when they are drunk, which is not impossible. After all, he has wanted to do so many times, and then come to see who is connected with his destiny.

But that kind of inexplicable fear, but to stop him, that is fear, in fact, more like a panic, because the arrival may be family, may be friendship... May be... Love.

A word that makes Kel'Thuzad a little overwhelmed.

In his past 20 years of life, obscure magic knowledge, mysterious history, and endless inspiration are the only colors that fill his life.

It's gorgeous, but it won't be scarlet.

He's not ready yet... At least not now. Good mages should get rid of the influence of emotion. So is antonidas, and so does Kel'Thuzad, who has always been following the example of the old mage.

So he breathed a sigh of relief.

Although self deception is not a good attitude, it is not unforgivable to cheat yourself at least when you are in a panic.

The black robed mage stood up and planned to turn back to his mage tower and continue to study the subject that bothered him. But just as he turned around, he stepped on a soft thing.

Then came a shrill cry.

This startled Kel'Thuzad. He looked down and saw that it was a black-and-white kitten. It looked dirty. It should be a test object escaped from a mage tower or a careless mage's pet.

Stray cats are not uncommon in Dalaran, but they are generally concentrated in the environment of sewers. Few stray cats walk in the street. Although Dalaran's defense mages don't care about such harmless little creatures, once they fall into the hands of those Dharma Masters with bad character or apprentices with stubborn and bold character, These little lives will fall into some very dangerous situation.

After all, a lot of dangerous magic, in the experiment, are required to test.

Kel'Thuzad didn't feel much about these little creatures. She didn't like them, but she didn't hate them. To be exact, this is the attitude of mages towards other creatures, even the same kind.

Yes, I don't like it. I don't hate it. I'm so cool that I'm almost indifferent.

But the fact that he stepped on the kitten and turned away made another bystander angry.

"Stop!"

Kel'Thuzad stopped. He looked back in doubt. It was another guy in the sun. In the slightly dazzling light, Kel'Thuzad could not see her face, but he stepped back a little, and the figure of the reckless guy fell into his eyes.

Well, the white robe, the Rough Magic cane, and the apprentice badge.

This is a wizard apprentice that can be seen everywhere in Dalaran, and finally... She's a girl.

This discovery made kelsugard a little alarmed, but before he spoke, the girl put down what she was holding. It should be a bag of cat food. She strode forward in anger. Her posture was not like a wizard, but like those rude soldiers.

But this kind of tough posture made her heart beat faster. He retreated awkwardly. It seemed that he was scared by the girl, and the expression on his face became a little strange.

"Bang"

Kel'Thuzad retreated to the wall, his back was glued to the wall, and the girl was standing in front of him. The two people were close to each other. This kind of intimate gesture was an experience that the researcher had never experienced in his life, which made him particularly embarrassed.

He is not a person who is good at dealing with others.

After seeing the green and flustered face of the sneaky black robed mage in front of her, the girl's original angry expression became playful. She stepped back, looked up and down at Kel'Thuzad, and then picked her eyebrows. There was a trace of examination on her pretty face.

"Sorry!"

"What... What?"

Kel'Thuzad didn't hear it clearly. She asked subconsciously. Then the girl pointed to the kitten at her feet and crossed her waist like a valiant maid,

"Apologize to it, you stepped on it! Is that what your tutor taught you? If you hurt someone else, just walk away? "

This question made Kel'Thuzad a little angry. He also had his own pride. His time was precious. How could he waste it here? However, when he saw the girl's squinting eyes, the arrogant researcher suddenly felt his heart beating. He was afraid to look at the girl. Then he looked down and said in a low voice,

"Yes, I'm sorry."

"Ha, that's right!"

The familiar girl reached out and patted Kel'Thuzad on the shoulder. She was ready to turn away with satisfaction, which made Kel'Thuzad feel relieved. But the next moment, she turned around and looked at the black robed mage with her head tilted,

"I just saw you standing here for a long time. Are you looking for something?"

"No!"

Kelsugard subconsciously denied it, but when he saw the girl's curved eyebrows again, he could only collapse his shoulders and say dejectedly,

"Well, actually, it's a... Well, a gold coin, which is very important to me."

"Wow, wish money?"

The girl's delicate brow picked again and said with exaggeration, "do you still believe this? You are such a gullible child

This kind of saying made kelsugard frown. He was really angry. He didn't like this kind of sarcastic way of speaking, so he dropped a sentence and planned to leave.

"Goodbye!"

When the girl saw that Kel'Thuzad turned and left, she realized that she had said something wrong, and called in a hurry,

"Hey, wait a minute!"

Kelsugard ignored the girl's call and quickened his pace. What happened this afternoon was not worth remembering. He felt that he had wasted his precious time on a very stupid thing.

But at the next moment, the touch of fingers and gold coins stopped Kel'Thuzad, and the girl's voice continued.

"I found this here this morning. Someone threw it on the edge of the fountain. Let me see what's written on it?"

"Enough! Don't look

Kel'Thuzad turned his head, just like a wolf who was enraged, threw aside all the strangeness and tranquility, and rushed at the girl fiercely to seize the gold coin in her hand.

"She can't see..."! Absolutely not

But looking at Kel'Thuzad, the apprentice's eyes flashed a little surprise. However, she didn't retreat. When the mage came, she slightly deviated a step outward, and then grabbed Kel'Thuzad's neck with her left hand, slamming it on the wall.

Her eyes were fixed on Kel'Thuzad,

"Hey, it's impolite to yell at a lady like that!"

However, seeing her eyes, a trace of panic and loss hidden in her anger, and the last touch of deep loneliness, the girl still didn't say what she said next. On the contrary, she opened her hand and gently held her in her arms. Her arms closed behind her.

This action made kelsugard wake up from anger in an instant, and his body became stiff. His whole Dalaran's thought that he could rank in the top three was cut off at this moment. He didn't know how to do it, did he hold it? Or let it go?

But the mage's tangle didn't last long. A few seconds later, the girl let go of kel'sugard, and her face was still a little red. She threw the gold coin in her hand to him, and then she put the kitten lying at her feet on her shoulder and said in a low voice,

"That's an apology."

With that, she looked at the panicked Kel'Thuzad with a mischievous smile on her lips,

"By the way, is this hug warm?"
