A day ago, the Mage Guild.

At the top of the Tower of Time is a stone staircase suspended in the air. Stepping on the stairs to the top of the tower, what you see when you look up is not the sky, but the endless void and twisted, deep turbulence.

Some people say that you can see the future and the end of time, but most people who have been here think that they will not see anything.

Legend has it that Lord Reslin, Lord of Time, was the only one of all mages to have an insight into time, and he was seen as the most likely person to solve the mystery of the Legend - until his apprentice, the more demonic genius Glazer, overshadowed his teacher's reputation, and people thought that he was the better candidate for Glazer.

However, soon, the Glazer who was promoted to legend was in seclusion, and even in Jialan's speeches year after year, even half of the punctuation marks did not change.

Even later, his daughter joined the Elemental Tower.

This move shattered the dreams of many mages who had pinned their hopes on him.

Of course, this dream was shattered a little late, after all, Lina appeared in Falan City only a dozen years ago, and Glazer became a legend more than two hundred years ago, and not long after, his teacher Reslin also became a legend - and then disappeared.

Just like the puzzle itself, all the mages who have historically advanced to the Legends have disappeared, and people don't know where they have gone, and Leslyn is no exception......

But his apprentice, Glazer, remained in Lokan.

Mages speculated that the legend would be followed by a new elemental realm where mages would be immortalized and thus separated from mortals, but Glazer somehow stayed...... As for what it was, they couldn't guess, and they didn't have a chance to ask him, but they just had some unwarranted suspicions.

That is until Rina joins the Elemental Tower.

The human imagination is endless, and the mage happens to be the best of them. They spread out their brains and wondered what kind of deal Glazer had made with Ikali from this fact......

Perhaps, the post-legendary Elemental Realm is not a heavenly kingdom, but a more cruel world, where there are powerful and primitive elemental creatures, violent elemental turbulence, and elemental sparks that merge, rebirth, annihilate, and circulate all the time, so Glazer is reluctant to go, he is afraid, hesitates, and even compromises with Ikali, at the cost of his own daughter, begging the elemental lord to save him......

The rumors became more and more outrageous, especially when the Glazer did not refute it in the slightest, and people gradually acquiesced to this claim.

In this way, he became a traitor.

Traitors in the eyes of the "Truth" mages, and unlike Headmaster William, this group of people is the extremist of the Truth, in other words, the mages of the Association.

They believe that since the world after the legend is a barren and uncultivated virgin land, then Glazer should go to the dark and savage new world to explore and open up wasteland like those sages and his teacher Reslin, and provide the possibility of life for those who come after him, which is a mission, an honor, and a ...... An unshirkable obligation.

But he was so cowardly that he became a deserter for his life!?

This speculation was first revealed before Miss Lina appeared, and after she appeared, it was recognized as a fact by the mages!

Especially Farkas, he still remembers that when his senior brother Glazer became a legend, he was happier than anyone else, and so was his teacher Reslin, but until Reslin tried his best to meet him, he fell into a daze.

Farkas remembered very well that the teacher had often stood alone at the top of the Time Tower since that day, muttering inexplicable words and having a complicated expression when mentioning Glazer, but no matter how much he asked, the teacher would not say more than half a word.

It wasn't until one day that the teacher drank too much wine after a long time and paralyzed his nerves, and then he sighed helplessly: "He has changed so much that I can't even recognize him......"

It was then that Farkas realized what was making the teacher sad.

He also became more and more convinced of this speculation, and the Glazer was a treacherous villain!

So, after the mages had disagreed with Seraf's discussion, he went to the top of the Tower of Time again, and looked up at the turbulence and the whirlpool without saying a word.

Suddenly, he felt someone behind him watching him.

Farkas turned abruptly, and sure enough, he saw a man shrouded in red robes.

What the?

Can someone climb up to the top of the Tower of Time and stand behind them for a long time?

His first reaction was that the tower had infiltrated to such an extent, so he hurriedly released his perception and blocked the space around the other party.

However, the other party just waved his hand lightly, and the blocked space collapsed instantly, like a sledgehammer hitting it, the stagnant space shattered instantly, and the debris flew all over the sky and was swept into the wind at the same time, completely turning into powder.

The hammer was clearly struck in the air, but Fakas, who was the caster, was hit hard, and the whole person almost stood unsteadily.

Unbeatable!

He quickly came to a conclusion, his head spun fast, and he was already thinking about whether or not blowing up the tower by blowing himself up here.

"Farkas?" The man spoke suddenly.

"Who is Your Excellency?"

Farkas replied, quietly releasing a sense of vigilance that tried to open the tower.

"You just ...... Thinking about your swan song as a mage? The man asked suddenly.

“？？”

Farkas was stunned when he was told about the central matter.

How does he know what he's thinking? The beautiful tradition of "self-explosion" has not appeared for many years, but the other party still remembers it...... He could also tell that this was the swan song of the mage, and he must be not young, and it was even very traditional......

It's breathtakingly powerful, but it can also understand its own thoughts, and it can sneak into the Tower of Time without even noticing......

Could it be ......

"Are you wondering if I'm using mind reading?" The man laughed again, "That's not the case. There was a momentary disturbance in the elements around you just now, and it was it that exposed your thoughts. If you think so next time, you should pay attention to the fact that the mage's swan song is not unstoppable, at least ...... I know four ways. ”

Farkas looked up suddenly, as if he had heard something incredible.

……

"You know, Farkass, the teacher said that even if it is a mage's swan song, he can stop it with three means, but I will have a fourth!"

"The fourth? What is that? ”

"It's okay if you want me to tell you, how about you finish copying today's scroll for me?"

“…… All right! Just tell me! ”

"No problem! There is no better spell in the world than words! But it's not a mantra, it's a language that touches people's hearts. As long as I can persuade that person to give up and rekindle hope for life, isn't that tantamount to preventing a self-explosion? Say, your senior brother and I are not a genius! ”

"Senior brother, where are you a genius, this is obviously cunning!"

……

"You...... You are ......"

Farkas gritted his teeth and couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

"I'm not him, I'm just a friend of his......" Glazer smiled, lowered his head, and said softly, "My name is Ash, and I'm here to fulfill a last wish for him." ”

"Ash...... Wait, last wish? Fakas's face changed suddenly: "Could it be that Glazer has ...... him"

"In the year 547 of the Faith calendar, he died." Glazer said lightly: "Die in a way you don't expect, and 'live' in a way you can't think of." ”
