Chapter 730 730 All The Hugs

Wolfe left the patrol to finish their work and flew the rest of the way back into Forest Grove. The witches were already waiting and ready for him, with a special party decoration theme added to the Festival decorations.

The fact that everyone was already gathered for the Festival made things a lot easier. However, the additional influx of visitors and the fact that nobody had left on schedule once they heard that Wolfe had broken through were making the city incredibly crowded.Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

There were worse fates than having to sleep on the floor, though, and unlike the group that had the power to come straight to the volcano to collect their good luck, most of the guests here had neither the power to get there in a hurry or the senses to know that it was happening until they were informed.

What they did have was a solid intelligence network, and that was enough to find out what the extra decorations were all about before they made the mistake of leaving.

To Wolfe, it was a bit like being a rock star. Everyone wanted to get to know him; everyone knew details about his life that even he might have forgotten if he hadn't been reminded, and they were all excited about his return.

It was a stark difference from life in the Morgana Coven Fortress City, the Academy, or even the first winter here in the Frozen Wastes. It was surprisingly difficult to adjust to, and the attention was making Wolfe feel awkward before he had even landed. In some ways, it was rather pleasant, though. As a young man, he would have gone to great lengths to get this level of attention from a single woman. Now, he had more of them hanging around him than he could reasonably say he deserved.

"Thank you all for the welcome back, and thank you for your patience. A large group met me where I went to finish my advancement, and they required a celebration before we left. But that also comes with good news. There is another new Saint, a Nymph who reached Rank Seven in the aftermath of my own advancement, and two Demons managed to reach an expert-level understanding of the Fire Element at the volcano.

Now, I am looking forward to your dancing, and maybe later, I will join in and see if I can do it a quarter as well as you all do."

The dancers laughed. A quarter was a good estimation, as a Magi's joints just didn't bend the same way as theirs did, so no matter how good his dexterity was, it would be physically impossible for him to actually keep up with the routine the way that they did it.

Cassie, Ella and Rail met him at the edge of the stage with determined looks on their faces.

"We're not getting cut out of this good luck, so you're coming with us. The others will change out every hour or so until we've all had time with you." Ella explained.

By others, she presumably meant the other members of the Pentacles, who were all still brimming with power from his advancement, with auras that were a bit unstable, as if they were being influenced just by their proximity to him and the power that he was radiating.

Wolfe couldn't tell if their aptitudes with the Elements had improved, but if he saw Risa and the Bloodletter twins later, he might be able to, as they actually had an affinity for Fire Magic to start with.

But the power of the Pentacles had already taken a huge leap, and the bonds were incredibly strong, and slowly changing as he wrapped his arms over the shoulders of the witches and Rail draped herself across him with a sultry look which said she had planned this out with them in advance.
