Chapter 1324

At that time, the era when Haier Bo had not been called "despicable" was the period when ancient Greece turned from prosperity to division at the end of BC.

At that time, Haier Bo was just a very ordinary young man... Yes, at least from the appearance, it was really ordinary.

He has three-dimensional facial features common to Greeks. Because he was born from ordinary daily work, his physique can be called strong. But before he first came into contact with magic culture, his impression was basically limited to mediocrity.

Yes, even in his spare time, he occasionally has some bad thoughts of sneaking around. But under the magnificent background of the times at that time, his sense of existence as a small citizen was as insignificant as a firefly.

However, as his ordinary life continued day after day, Haier Bo, who had not even imagined his future, finally met the man who changed his life.

It was a wizard, a real wizard who was very mysterious and powerful in the eyes of the common people at that time!

Although that era was called "the heyday of ancient magic" by today's historians, because magic at that time had extremely strict requirements for users, so that people who could really become wizards were very rare.

Let alone wizards, even those who are accepted as apprentices by wizards are often one in a million gifted people. Even those gifted wizard apprentices may not be able to become wizards.

This shows how rare a real wizard is.

I remember at that time, it was halbo who had finished a whole day's work and planned to go to the broken tavern in the town to ask for the cheapest wine to amuse himself before going to bed.

At that time, lighting lights at night was still a very luxurious act for ordinary people. Whenever it's dark and you can't continue to work, it's dark to think about the long night and getting up early. Looking for a place that doesn't cost much but can entertain and relax to kill time has become the most acceptable way of "nightlife" for the general public.

But at that time, Haier Bo didn't expect that he unexpectedly found the scene that a wizard took an apprentice that night.

As the night approached, the local Lord accompanied a wizard he had known in a big city to personally preside over the public selection of apprentices. As soon as the young hairbo saw that many families were dressed in sunset glow, he sent older children to meet the wizard for each other's careful selection. He immediately went to see the excitement.

To tell the truth, at his age, he has long been beyond the selection range of wizards. So at the beginning, he didn't think about what he could get. He just squeezed in to see what the wizard he had never seen looked like.

By the way, it would be better if the wizard could show one or two hands!

However, most of the civilians with the mentality of "watching bards perform" soon became silent one by one.

On the contrary, the so-called "Wizard" looks no different from ordinary people.

The reason why they are all silent without leakage is that unconsciously, there is a sense of awe at the bottom of everyone's heart.

"Is that... Wizard...?"

Halber closed his mouth tightly and stared at the old man in the robe for a moment. His heart was gradually filled with some kind of fear.

For most of that night, even with his usual generous nature, he didn't dare to speak out from beginning to end. When the old wizard left the only square in the town, he walked home with some soft feet.

For nearly half a month after that, the sentence "is that a wizard?"

Half a month later, Haier Bo, who was half absent day and night, became haggard. He began to be annoyed. Why didn't he meet a wizard to choose an apprentice in the town when he was a child?

Even that night, the old wizard didn't choose even a suitable apprentice until the end, but becoming a wizard became halbo's only wish later.

He can't be a wizard at his age? No, halber doesn't want to think about this at all. He just wants to be closer to the wizard, even one step.

How wonderful it is to be a person who can make people unconsciously fear!

Thus, this simple "ideal" derived from seeing a wizard for the first time became one of the foundations for his first step into the magical world.

After that, more than half a year later, Haier Bo, who saved more travel expenses, finally resolutely gave up the ordinary life with no future in the past. He packed up his few bags and set foot on the road to a nearby big city in order to save money.

At that time, wizards and nobles were usually related to each other, and it was even possible that a Lord was a wizard himself. Haier Bo found out that the owner of the big city was a real wizard.

In order to ask the other party to accept himself as an apprentice, he racked his brains to approach the other party and put forward his wish face to face.

Unfortunately, the expected twists and turns naturally appeared. He was ruthlessly rejected by the city master and wizard. He was even ruthlessly expelled from the city by several Knights because he was tangled in front of the city master.

He spent that night in the wasteland by the side of the road. Because he didn't carry the tools to make a fire, he was blown by the cold wind all night, and his hands and feet were frozen unconscious.

When he was awakened by the cold in the early morning, he finally met the first teacher in his life - the witch Kern who was named "goddess of death" by many black wizards around the first year of AD.

Yes, it's the woman who once touched the "rules of death" and was rumored to have set foot on the "border of life and death", but finally became a non human and non ghost.

However, when halbo first met her, she was a talented girl who had just become a wizard.

"Wake up?"

It was still dark at that time. Haier Bo, who had just opened his eyes, was startled by the girl squatting next to his head. But then he found that he couldn't move.

Is it frozen? No, he doesn't know, because he does feel very cold. But in addition, the chill from the heart seemed to be familiar.

"Don't be afraid. It's just a very common spiritual magic. I've just learned it. I'm just practicing with you."

As a young girl, Kern bowed his head, said carelessly, and patted halbo on the cheek. In the dim moonlight, Kern's short black hair swayed with the night wind, looking inexplicably free and easy.

Just at the first glance, she left a very deep impression on halbo - a girl who doesn't care about anything or anyone.

And... Maybe also a wizard!

"Lady, witch, I --"

"Huh?"

Seeing the young man in front of him trembling his lips and struggling to make a sound, Kern glanced at him again and said:

"What's the matter?"

"... please... Accept me as your apprentice..."

Neither scolding, nor begging for mercy, nor flattering - Kern had seen reactions in ordinary people in the past, but the young man in front of him did not show them.

Although she could clearly feel that the other party had the same fear and vigilance in her heart, the first word the other party said was to beg her to accept him as an apprentice.

"No, I'm not interested in another burden!" Kern waved wildly. "I'm too lazy to have children around the age of ten, let alone people of your age - what do you think you can do for me?"

"I don't know..." Haier Bo's voice squeezed out of his throat was dry and spoke slowly, but his tone was very firm. "However, as long as I can become a wizard... I'm willing to do anything."

Haier Bo, who was able to have such a reputation later, was naturally not simple. His persistence in what he wanted began to show from that moment.

Of course, almost all he got after that was "bad reputation".

"Willing to do anything?" Kern shook his head after hearing his insistence. "Then I want you to die. Are you willing?"

"As long as... I can live and learn magic, I will."

Fear of death is human nature, but other details of fear vary from person to person. Just like Haier Bo, he was quite frightened because of the sentence "I want you to die". At the same time, he also showed his firmness in his heart.

"Do you really want to die?" Kern was finally a little happy. "Well, if what you said is true, if you can survive from beginning to end and help me finish my magic experiment, I can't be an apprentice like you."

Do magic research with ordinary people's bodies and Wizards? Others may not be able to hold on, but halbo's eyes have long been only the desire for wizards.

"What I said... Is true," halber said forcefully. "As long as you don't die, you can do it!"

"Oh, then you should die first!"

The next second, Kern picked up the slender staff at hand and even gave it to halbo. After a moment, the latter, who had been fearless for no reason because of the power of spiritual magic, lost consciousness in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, this is not a magic that can make people really die - people who are really dead can't be resurrected at all.

However, Haier Bo had completely fainted at that time, and it was not easy to wake up again.

When halbo woke up at dawn, the girl Kern seemed to have left.
