"That's right. The high-ranking mage of Arabe City suddenly came back to his senses, and the first thing that Galia described when she recommended Iluli to him was that she didn't need spellcasting materials.

And the inferences he thought were reasonable just now were all based on spellcasting materials, or magic containers.

Lias's expression changed dramatically, and he was speechless for a moment.

No casting materials are required, and spells are instantaneous.

If there is any supreme pursuit of the Free Thinking Mage Association.

It's not a new kind of magic, or a new theory of magic.

Rather, it is a complete and perfect mastery of magic.

Cast spells freely, spells instantaneous.

With these two points, Iluri is enough to become the focus of countless scholars in the entire mage association. Lias swallowed heavily, and he realized that he was not dealing with a simple little girl.

"Miss Mayfield. Lias's expression became solemn, and his tone was very polite: "I am shocked by your magical talents. With my knowledge, I'm afraid I can't give an accurate description of your magical abilities. So, as your sponsor, I don't think I'm the right fit. ”

"Uh, what do you mean?" Iruli wondered.

Galia patiently explained that there was an unwritten rule in the Free Thinking Mage Association, and if a newcomer wanted to join the association, he needed at least one recommender, and the identity of the recommender could not be too low, at least a high-level magician. At the same time, as a recommender, the referee's magical ability must be explained and explained as necessary, and approved by the Archmage Council before the mage six-pointed star emblem can be issued.

Lias's meaning was clear, he really didn't know how to describe free spell casting and spell instantaneousness, because he didn't know anything about either ability.

"But don't worry, your magical talent is so rare. Lias thought for a moment and made an important decision: "It seems that the association is going to make an exception." ”

"Make an exception?"

"Yes!" Lias nodded heavily: "The Patriarch Archmage Council will personally review it!"

Galia's face was full of surprise: "Mentor, you mean to let those ......"

"Yes. Lias had a complicated expression on his face: "They rarely get involved in the world, and they don't even care about this sea monster crisis. But this time, I think they'll be interested. ”

In the city of Arabe, there are five classes, slaves, commoners, merchants, nobles and magicians, among which magicians are divided into magician apprentices, beginner magicians, intermediate magicians, high-level magicians, crowned magicians, archmages, and finally the rank that represents the pinnacle of magic - the patriarch archmage.

Among them, the one in charge of the affairs of the association is mainly responsible for the implementation of the rotation system of the Archmage Council, a total of three people, rotating once a year, also known as the Three Dharma Council, which is basically the highest authority in Arabe City and even the Mage Association.

However, above the Council of the Three Laws, there is also an ancient organization that originated from the time of the creation of the city of Arabbe, the Council of the Elders.

Becoming a patriarch requires not only profound magical research, but also a demanding condition, that is, transcendence from mortals, and the main manifestation is lifespan. Magicians are also mortals by nature, and mortals with special energies will also eat, drink, and lazar, be happy, angry, sad, and die.

Of course, in this backward age when the average life expectancy is less than fifty years. Magicians usually live a little longer, reaching sixty or even seventy years old, but as they grow older, there is a great probability that their physical functions and magical abilities will decline or even disappear completely, and then they will be like mortals.

With the exception of the Patriarchs, they are rumored to have been favored by the gods to become glorious servants of the gods, transcending the realm of mortals, gaining eternal life and magical blessings.

Of the three founding archmages who founded Arabe, one died due to old age and decay, and the other died due to an accident, not due to natural aging. The remaining one, who is still alive today, is said to have lived for nearly 200 years and is the spiritual leader of the entire Mage Association.

In the nearly 200-year history of Arabe City, there have been four patriarchs and archmages, all of whom are over 100 years old, not only their physical functions remain normal, but their mana has also become stronger and stronger with the accumulation of years.

That is, the current Council of Patriarchs, a total of 5 people. After years of living in the central mage tower of the magic district, he almost never showed his face, except for a few servants who served him.

Even if the archmage asks to see him, he needs to apply in advance and get permission before he can enter the mysterious old mage tower, which is the origin of the name of the association - free thinking.

Lias's meaning is clear, and even archmages may not be able to make a decision about Iluri's extraordinary magical abilities. He could be sure that those Patriarch Archmages would definitely be interested in this.

"Teacher, what about the Three Dharma Councils. Galia whispered.

"It's okay, Galia. Don't forget, what we call it – free thinking. The three archmages on this year's rotation are open-minded and will definitely be interested and support my decision. Lias's face was full of confidence, but at the same time a little impatient: "Miss Melfield, Galia, I will go to the Council of the Three Laws now, ask for their consent, and submit a written application to the Council of Elders." ”

"Okay, then we'll go back and wait for your news. ”

"Trust me, it'll be soon, you can wait in peace. ”

Lias changed into a beautiful mage robe, and rushed to the central district with his staff. Illuri and Galia return to Rose Street the same way they came, waiting for news.

"Hey, Kelly. ”

This time, Iluri finally meets the little girl she rescued on the beach. Unlike the dirt at that time, Kelly was cleanly groomed, wearing a close-fitting cotton robe, with light brown hair tied back her head, and her facial features were immature and cute, which was a likable little Lori.

However, Kylie doesn't seem to have much of an impression of Iluri. There was no way, it was dark at night, and Kelly was extremely frightened, and she was in a state of fear the whole time, and it was impossible to know Eluli at all.

She grabbed the corner of her clothes, hid timidly behind Galia, and gently bit her lip and refused to speak.

"Don't be afraid, Kelly, remember that pretty elf sister I told you about? Galia gently took her little hand and touched her little head.

"Iluli, she was terrified, and it took more than a week to recuperate after she came back. ”

"Understood, understood. With a smile on her face, Iluri didn't mind, winked at Kelly, and hooked her fingers: "Little guy, I'm relieved to see that you're doing well here." ”

Kelly winked and shrank back.

Galaia gave Iluri a helpless look and patted Kelly: "Okay, Kelly, let's go upstairs and play." I'm going to talk to this elf sister. ”

Kelly nodded slightly, turned around and ran up to the top of the stairs. Galia turned her head and sighed softly, "Kelly's experience is tragic, and now she has become very timid. ”

"Understood. Iluri nodded, "Like that sister of yours." ”

"You say Hadilis? yes, what happened to her as a child was also miserable. "I still remember the first thing she said to me, after a year of living here. I was practicing my first magic in the backyard, the Wind Blade, and I released it thinking it was a success because the little tree moved. So I was very excited, but Hadilis, who was passing by, said a word, guess what?"

"Haha, she said one word - cat. That's when I realized that it wasn't my magic that worked, but that I had dodged a cat on a branch, and I was frightened by the way I waved my staff, so I made the leaves move. ”

Galia's eyebrows were full of the sweetness of memory, and Iruli was also amused by this little story.

"So. Galia glanced at the stairs and pouted, "I hope Kelly can be a little more lively and not become a second Hadiris." ”

Iluri was amazed, "Why?

"Haha...... That's not what I'm talking about. Galia laughed heartily, "Didn't you notice? It's just to make Hadilys suffocate, if there is another one like this, my God, I can't imagine what life it is, it's like facing two wooden people, you know?"

"By the way, Hadilith, aren't you home today?"

Yi Necromancer, a little Lori Necromancer. Lu Li was quite interested in the little girl who looked a little scary.

"No, I'm out on a mission. ”

"Oh. ”

The two chatted for a while, not waiting for good news from Lias, but for an order. The order was given by the Mage Guild, and Galia was instructed to immediately prepare and join the rest of the mages to go to the port of Abundance, one of the three major ports of Arabe, to support, and there were signs that a large number of sea monsters were moving towards the port.

"Oops. After reading the appointment, Galia's brows furrowed tightly.

"What's wrong?"

"The Port of Plenty may be attacked, it is one of the core ports of the city of Arabbe and is connected to the river leading to the city. Once the sea monster breaks through the defense line, the consequences are unimaginable. ”

Galia paused: "Hadilys is there. ”

"Do you want me to help?" Although Iruli said to Rena that 'I can't help work', she is actually very righteous in her heart, and Jialia braved the rain to rescue her that day, so she naturally won't stay out of it.

"Eluri, you don't have to go, you're not an official member yet. Galia was a little moved.

"Aha, it's fine. Iluri's face was full of lightness: "Anyway, it's idle to be idle, the bakery has Rena and they just have to worry about it." Don't worry, I can take care of myself, and maybe I can help. ”
