Chapter 493: The Master's Banquet (II)
"Whoa! I suddenly remembered that my little Larry hadn't fed me today, Locke, and I'll tell you about it next time. The crow flapped its wings and fled, and flew towards a room in the house, in a terrible move.
Little Larry is a green-armored fiddler crab he raises, the size of a thumb.
"Poof. Michelle, who was paying attention to this on the other side, covered her mouth lightly, as if she was not angry at all because of the crow's broken beak.
Angelina sat down next to Locke not long after talking to Michelle, as her mentor arrived, as well as Master Ashar.
"Kayla, long time no see!And Ashar, you've also been promoted to the second level!" Michelle said with a smile to the two men who entered the door.
"Welcome back, Michelle!" Master Kayla looked very familiar with Michelle, stepped forward and hugged Michelle, "This time my senior brother is in charge, so I don't have to worry about relying on those puppets to take care of my daily life." ”
"You. Michelle looked disgusted and tapped her finger at Master Kayla's forehead.
Master Ashar was much more straightforward, and after greeting him with a standard magician etiquette, he found his place and sat down on Locke's right side.
Now that everyone had arrived, I saw Uncle Joss on the throne snap his fingers lightly, and one after another exquisite food streamed out of the kitchen and floated down on the round table.
This meal Locke couldn't eat, and the table was full of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and all of them were precious ingredients that had a lifting effect on first-class creatures, but he couldn't afford to provoke any of the people here, so he didn't dare to let go of his belly to eat.
For example, the plate of food called volcanic mussels in front of him, it seems that there are more than 20 pieces, and Locke only took two of them, and tasted them quite gently, following Angelina's appearance.
On the other side, Crow Blue, who flew back after the meal, was different, this guy was quite wild in eating, and he ate from the bowl and looked at the pot, his eyes were like a wolf, staring at the other delicacies on the table.
"Eat quickly, Locke, why don't you eat?" The crow was not only a foodie himself, but also wanted to pull Locke into the water, and from time to time encouraged Locke to eat with it. The name of the volcanic mussel was told to him by this crow.
On the left sat Angelina, on the right sat Master Ashar, and Locke sat precariously unmoved by the raven's words.
Since he couldn't let go of eating, Locke focused on the conversation of the other people at the dinner table.
Through the exchange of pleasantries between Master Kayla and Master Michelle, Locke knew that Master Michelle had just returned to the Holy Tower from the Otherworld.
"I didn't expect that I hadn't seen you for more than ten years, and Sister Kayla would accept such a smart apprentice. Michelle sighed.
For magicians like them, who often have a lifespan of hundreds of years, more than ten years is really a snap of a finger.
A first-level magician has a lifespan of five hundred years, and a second-level magician like her has a lifespan of a thousand years.
"Angelina, this kid is really talented, and she studies very hard. Master Kayla was not humble at all, and laughed happily with her sister, whom she hadn't seen for many years.
Every now and then, Angelina would also interject a few words.
The crow didn't pull it down, and flew here for a while to eat two bites, and then flew to the other side to eat a few bites, and didn't forget to open his mouth and say a few words while eating.
At this master's banquet, only Locke, Master Ashar, and Uncle Jos never said much.
Locke didn't dare to say it, Ashar didn't want to say it, and Uncle Joss was...... They haven't even taken off their masks, and they haven't eaten a bite, let alone interjected.
"Why don't I take in an apprentice too? Michelle thought to the side of her head.
Kayla's apprentice Angelina, she likes it very much after getting acquainted with it, and it doesn't look bad to have such a well-behaved and sensible apprentice.
In the course of hundreds of years of life, Michelle has been accompanied by knowledge, and erudite knowledge has endowed Michelle with powerful magical powers, but she has not enjoyed the warmth and coldness of family affection between people.
As an aside, she and Jos have known each other for more than 600 years, and they both see each other as indispensable partners in life, but in the end, neither of them was the first to pierce the window paper.
Because I don't understand, I don't dare to touch it easily, and the two are still childhood sweethearts so far, not husband and wife.
Locke's previous sentence of 'Uncle Master', which had calmed Michelle's heart for hundreds of years, rippled slightly, and secretly observed Jos, this guy hasn't even taken off his mask until now, I really don't know what he thinks.
"The food is going to be cold, do you want to eat it?" Michelle said with a nudge as she pushed Joss.
Uncle Jos, who had been silent for a long time, took off his mask that he had never left at the urging of Michelle.
The thin immaculate mask like a layer of skin was removed from Uncle Jos's face, and Locke finally witnessed the true face of this strong master.
He has short pale blonde hair, dark blue eyes, a high nose, and a slightly melancholy face full of knowledge.
Judging from his appearance, this Uncle Jos is not handsome at all, not as good as Locke, but this person sitting there gives people an illusion that cannot be ignored.
From a scientific point of view, this is because Joss Shibo's soul is too strong, and his huge spiritual power unconsciously drives the surrounding creatures to resonate, so as to achieve the effect of attraction and even worship.
Uncle Jos took off his mask, picked up his knife and fork and ate the first piece of food of the day, and the feast really began.
The magicians are not a sociable bunch, and the table is full of delicious food, but apart from the whispering of Michelle and Master Kayla and Angelina, and the noise of Crow Blue and Crow, the rest of the people are only dealing with the food in front of them.
Master Ashar ate very little, which can be called a superficial taste, and after a while, he put down the utensils, took out a crystal ball from the spatial ring, and fiddled with it.
Uncle Jos quickly finished eating, and the taciturn uncle did exactly the same as the magician Ashar, put on his mask again, and took out a specimen of a strange lizard with three heads and six tails and studied it.
Locke, who was accustomed to drinking and eating meat among knights, was extremely uncomfortable with this kind of master banquet, and what he thought in his heart was that he would never come here with Angelina to eat again, even if this table of food, he might not be able to afford the energy crystals he had saved for a year.
At the end of the banquet, Locke did not forget to take out the gift he had prepared.
What was given to Wizard Kayla was a small plain white silk shoulder, which had no practical effect, but was better than its good appearance, and Wizard Kayla was very satisfied after taking it.
What was given to the magician Ashar was a superb radiant stone, a rare magical material that met the magician's appetite.
