As a fourth-order wizard and the creator of the Wall of Sighs, the white-haired Murphy stepped forward and knocked on the door to the top floor of the wizard's tower.

Heywood, an apprentice in the Wizard's Tower, and his sister Heidi looked up at the same time.

"It's strange, it's not the time for a roving wizard to visit, how can someone come to the door?"

If it's other wizarding towers, there may still be people hanging out, but the wizarding towers in Gorsa ...... Normally, no one really comes.

"I'll take a look." Heidi, who looked like a black shadow, was just about to burrow through the wall when she heard a low, slightly hoarse voice.

"You stay here."

It's Gorsa's voice.

Suddenly, Heywood and Heidi all froze in place, and whispered yes.

Gorsa walked slowly down the spiral staircase.

He could teleport directly outside the Wizard Tower, but he just had to walk slowly.

Even the person waiting for him outside was the only fourth-order wizard in the Extreme North.

Gorsa walked to the top of the Wizard's Tower and stood inside the door for a moment.

The people outside the door already knew about his arrival, but still did not make a sound, and waited quietly.

It seems that the identities of the two have been reversed at this moment.

Finally, Gorsa opened the door, faced the old man who was respected by many wizards outside, and smiled slightly: "Your Excellency Murphy, why are you here?" ”

Murphy didn't answer immediately, but slowly swept Gorsa's whole body from top to bottom, bottom to top.

The heir of this Glow family has a handsome appearance that is characteristic of their family. Her long, untreated hair is messy but chic, and her skin is so white that it seems to glow.

But when Murphy examines Gorsa, he doesn't care about the other party's appearance at all.

He even let out a sigh when he reconnected Gorsa's golden eyes.

"Looks like you're ready." Murphy's expression was complicated and compassionate, "Have you ever thought about what happens if you fail?" ”

Gorsa tilted his head, as if hearing a question so simple that it made him laugh.

"Hehe, then die."

Murphy shook his head, admiring the bravery of the young man in front of him and regretting the recklessness of the other party.

"There are many kinds of death. Some deaths are only for a moment, and you don't even feel pain, but for you, the world is over. ”

"But some deaths will be long, and you may beg for an end in the dark night with no end in sight, but you can't do anything about it."

Murphy's voice was full of exclamations, as if he was going through it all.

Gorsa shook his head slowly, "I'm not afraid of death, and I'm not afraid of living. ”

"And what are you afraid of?" Murphy didn't get angry because of Gorsa's few rebuttals, but was still in the mood to joke, "Say it, let me use it to scare you." ”

Gorsa's crooked eyes blinked.

"I'm afraid that there is no road at the end, and I am afraid that I will lose the courage to move forward."

Murphy's lips twitched suddenly, and his smile became a little forced, "You ...... Really, I'm blocked in both directions. ”

He let out a long sigh, "You're braver than I am." Then I won't advise you. How long will it take you to take the final step, though? ”

Gorsa raised his hand and nodded his chin, "I'm waiting for an opportunity, I think it should be soon." ”

Murphy smiled and asked, "The next time the Kuroshio erupts, can you still help?" ”

Gorsa only gave a vague approximation, "Probably yes." ”

After the conversation, Murphy left alone.

During the time the two were talking through the door, Murphy didn't ask to go in, and Gorsa didn't invite anyone in.

Tacit.

As if each other were not people of the same world.

……

After escaping from Klee's lab, Thor saw Hope waiting for him in the hallway.

After glancing at the time, Thor, the incompetent tower owner, finally had time to listen to Hope's report on the situation in the Pure Soul Wizard Tower and Rhine City.

Although Hope's previous master, Gorsa, was not very competent, he at least stayed in the wizard's tower all year round, and Hope could find someone in any emergency.

Thor, on the other hand, simply disappeared, returning for a few days at a time, as if the Soul Purification Wizard Tower was a place to rest.

Hope could see that Thor had something to deal with urgently, so he reported the situation in a quick and clear voice.

“…… The current lord of the Rhine is Luke, who was one of your patients. I observed for a while, and found that he was very loyal to you, and that he was quick-witted, so I put him in charge of the affairs of the Rhine for the time being. If you have another candidate, you can always replace him. ”

"No, just him, if something goes wrong." With a flick of his pen, Thor agreed directly.

Luke is extremely loyal to him, and even the fate line has appeared with Thor.

Hope nodded yes, and then talked about the Wizard's Tower.

“…… I've recruited some more wizards, mainly first-order wizards, to cooperate with the various experimental topics of the Pure Soul Wizard Tower. ”

Now the Wizard Tower is not like when Gorsa was there, and it was the Mentor who taught a large number of apprentices.

It's more like a combination of the Academy of Knowledge and the Institute of Practice in Sky City, with an experimental research topic as a group, and one or several formal wizards with senior apprentices conducting research. It is not responsible for training new apprentices.

Anyway, there are no weak full-fledged wizards living in the Borderlands, and apprentice wizards are even more resilient.

Thor still nodded, "Just ask Byron and Klee." ”

Thor is now a third-order wizard, and the method of promoting to the fourth order is unique, and no one can participate in his experiments.

After all the reports, Hope saluted respectfully, and then immediately stepped back.

Thor went down the stairs until he reached the second basement floor, where the algae were enclosed.

As soon as he opened the door to the second basement floor, Thor saw a dark shadow rushing towards his face.

Thor was quick and pinched.

"Woo woo ......"

The small algae shark-like mouth was skillfully pinched by Thor in the upper and lower jaws, and he didn't dare to break free, so he could only honestly pretend to be pitiful.

Thor smiled with relief, "Algae, you're awake!" How does it feel, is the Black Sea Tree Source any good? ”

When Thor let go, Saga stepped forward again and wrapped it around Thor shoulders twice like a scarf.

"Hmm~"

"Why do you look a little aggrieved?" Thor thought to himself and continued to walk down, and then he saw the torso attached behind the tentacles......

"Uh......"

The small algae's originally thick trunk was gone, and it became a dense, slender, curved and entangled slender branch.

It's more like a seaweed dumpling than it used to be.

And it's not too big, so Thor can hold it up with two hands. I was still trembling when I moved a little.

Thor poked his finger, and the tangled ball of seaweed moved twice, then shrunk even smaller.

Thor watched carefully for a moment, then frowned, looking up at the only small tentacle tip still outstretching.

"Algae, to be honest, are you...... Entwined yourself into a dead knot that you can't untie? ”

"Boom Boom ......"

I haven't seen Gorsa for a long time, so I pulled it out for a walk
