The dinner was arranged to take place at the Tower of Time.

From the central square to the Tower of Time, all the snow on the way has been cleared in advance, making it very convenient for people to stay, Xia Duo followed behind the mage in front of him, and slowly walked towards the Tower of Time.

Behind him, the light in the square gradually dimmed, and the soldiers had already begun to guide the onlookers to exit one after another, of course, when these ordinary people left the field, each of them could get a piece of white bread.

When I arrived at the Mage Tower, the pure black portal, which was usually only two people wide, was now completely open, and even from the outside, you could see the inner hall, and the tables and chairs of the dinner party, busy apprentices, and servants were clearly visible.

When passing through this door, there was no deep-sea immersion that the usual black door was, but it was like a teleportation spell, and it came to another space in a flash.

"It's amazing!" One of the apprentices made a surprised noise, but was immediately attracted by the food in the hall on the first floor.

Meat, fish, fresh fruits, vegetables, and the fresh, sweet smell of wine that you can smell as soon as you enter the hall!

Apprentices are no strangers to this taste, and a glass of similar elf fruit wine can be distributed in the restaurant at lunchtime, but those are only diluted apprentice brewed versions.

The genuine version is brewed by a specialized winemaker, and it is only available to official mages to enjoy, but I didn't expect the lord to be willing to use genuine elf wine to entertain everyone this time.

Others may have heard of the reputation of elven wine, but few have actually drunk it, or even just smelled it, and many people can't help but twitch their noses when the real elven wine is placed in front of them.

It seems to be going to bring all the aromas of wine into the chest.

……

"Master Mage, your position is over here!"

Under the guidance of the servants, Xia Duo came to the end of a long row of dining tables, and perhaps the servants made a mistake and directly arranged Xia Duo next to a formal mage.

Before Xia Duo could remind him, the mage next to him took the initiative to speak, "Sit down, I remember you, apprentice Xia Duo." ”

"Uh, Master Mage, you're-"

Xia Duo was still wearing this robe, and his name was not written on his body, and he didn't know how the mage recognized him, but he didn't have much of an impression of the other party.

"Supplies requisition, you went to me to exchange the study scroll."

In the flash of light, Xia Duo remembered that it was the time he exchanged the learning scroll before the mission-

At that time, there was an apprentice who bought a [Fireball Technique] scroll, and he scolded him for being a fool, but when Xia Duo exchanged it for the learning scroll, the other party reminded him to use it well.

"It's you, I don't know what to call Master Mage?"

"My name is Theore, and I have known for a long time that you can survive the orc tide, so I have gained a lot this time!"

"It's-" Chardo didn't know what Theore meant, but he had already sat down and still had to say something, "Siore-sama, I've learned a lot from this mission. ”

Theore nodded, but then changed the subject, "Xia Duo, the time of the Mage Tower's class is uncertain now, have you figured out how to arrange the next time?" ”

The topic turned a little stiff, the two of them had only met once before, and one was a full-fledged mage, the other was just an apprentice, and Xia Duo was a little frightened by this sudden concern.

"I'm going to go to the library and copy a few books, and then study them myself, I don't know what Master Mage means—"

Ahem –

I don't know if I feel a little uncomfortable and can't pretend anymore, Theore smiled awkwardly, and then said bluntly, "Are you interested in coming to my research room to do things?" ”

Not interested!

This was Xia Duo's first reaction, he was either a traitor or a thief if he had nothing to do, and he knew with his toes that Theore's real purpose was definitely not to promote him.

But there's definitely something that needs to be used for him.

It was impossible to agree, but directly refusing and fearing to anger the official mage, Xia Duo was also a little entangled for a while, but fortunately, the bell for the start of the banquet rang in time.

The hall was silent.

This made Xia Duo breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly gave Theorebi an apologetic look, and then looked at the lord who had already sat down and was about to speak, silent.

But his heart was already rippling, and he didn't even listen to what the lord said, but when he heard "the dinner party begins", he subconsciously started eating.

The long dining table on Xiaduo's side only sits on one side, and it is full of spellcasters, and the long dining table opposite is also only sitting on one side, all ordinary people, and the two sides are just facing each other, and the lord is a special table.

The servants were constantly coming and going, and occasionally someone at the table got up to talk, but Chardo didn't care about it, he just buried his head in eating, and at the same time wondered what Theore's purpose was.

The food at the dinner was quite good, even Xia Duo from the foodie empire couldn't find any major faults, which shows that this dinner party still put a lot of effort into it.

One of Xiado's favorites is the elf wine, although it is only a small glass, but it allows him to drink the taste of nature, as if the whole person is floating in the clouds, walking freely, which makes people very nostalgic.

And this made him forget about the doubts caused by Theore for a while.

It wasn't until the end of the dinner that Shado returned to reality, and while Theore was talking to a neighboring mage, he immediately took advantage of the opportunity to leave the hall.

……

Back in the dormitory, Shado's heart was still pounding.

Although he dodged once temporarily, Xia Duo knew that he couldn't dodge the fifteenth year of junior high school, and he had to figure out what Theore wanted to do, otherwise it would be a dead knot.

And even if he knew, he had to find a way to avoid it, before he became an official mage, he really didn't want to intersect with any mage, in the case of unequal status and strength, how could there be equal interactions!

Changing out of his gown, Xia Duo took out the Tower of Time badge issued by the lord before, which was similar in appearance to the one given to him by Master Horst when he participated in the previous mission.

But this one was clearly a magical item, and in a state of concentration, it was clearly visible that it was emitting a faint blue light.

On the front of the coat of arms is the image of the Tower of Time and a book, which is the emblem of the House of Savile, while on the back is inscribed a text -

"Shador was involved in ending the orc tide of the Savile Realm, Epps Saville, in the year 834 of the Chromic calendar."

It's not an inscription that records his exploits, it just shows that he participated in this year's orc war, but it's true, it's just that people are greedy, and Xia Duo is no exception.

This badge is actually a device that connects to the Tatar Spirit of Time, which can contact the Taling from outside the Mage Tower, and if you have enough permission, you can even return directly to the Mage Tower from the outside with the help of the Taling's summoning.

For the apprentice, it is a little weak, after all, the apprentice spends most of his time in the mage tower.

Putting away the badge, Xia Duo continued the inventory and summary work that had been interrupted earlier.
