Chapter 717 Apprentice
"I'm not interested in taking another apprentice. In a makeshift laboratory converted from a secret room, Ashar glanced at Locke.
Ashar had only one apprentice, Grace, Locke's woman, and Ashar taught Grace mainly about the wizarding system and alchemy.
Ashar was not a qualified mentor, or rather, she had no interest in being a mentor in the first place.
The master-apprentice relationship with Grace is only a nominal master-apprentice, and she does not see Angelina as the inheritor of their line like Kayla.
"I'm not here to dispel the Grimm summoner's doubts. Locke sneered, Ashar took care of Grace in a lot of places, and Locke still owes Ashar a favor for this.
On the makeshift test bench, Memila lay quietly on it, her eyes covered with a black cloth, and a faint smell of medicine emanating from it.
Glasses are the windows of the soul, and they are one of the external manifestations of spiritual power, in order not to hurt this little girl, Ashar used the highest potion when testing Memila.
"What about her? Do you want to continue researching?" Locke pointed to Memira on the test bench.
"Now I have benefited a lot just by the light of spiritual power found in her eyes, if I can open her head......" Ashar's voice seemed to have some kind of magic power, which made people believe and fear.
Ashar in this state, Locke had not been uncommon before, and it was the madness that only appeared when dissecting and studying ectopic creatures.
Swallowing his saliva, Locke said with difficulty, "What should I do if someone else finds out, this kind of experiment is already a dark mage's experiment." ”
No matter what Ashar wants to do, Rock will choose to support, but in this case, the first thing Rock has to do is calm Ashar.
"So we need to get out of here and find a quiet place where I can do my research in peace. "And who said this was a dark magic experiment, and opening her head doesn't mean she's going to die." ”
You're going to open people's heads, and it's not the work of a black magician?
Locke choked, and Ashar, who was caught in the research demon, had no reason to speak of.
"It's not good...... The boy had just lost his father...... "Locke said in a deep voice.
Locke wasn't a good guy, but he was definitely not a dehumanizing bastard, and if Ashar insisted on doing so, he would choose to support it, but he had a hard conscience.
"I did this, of course, with the child's consent. Ashar said lightly.
"She agreed?!" Locke couldn't believe that someone would agree to let someone open their own braincase for research.
"Yes, but she has one condition. Looking at Locke, Ashar's lips were slightly raised, like a cunning and beautiful fox.
"What conditions?" was obviously talking about Memila, but somehow a few drops of cold sweat appeared in Locke's head, as if something bad was going to happen to him.
"She wants to be a teacher. Ashar said as he looked at Locke.
"Who is it?" Locke's bad premonition intensified.
"It's you. Ashar winked at Locke.
Locke faints.
"I didn't expect you to leave so soon, this is the magic material that Master Ashar wants, and I have ordered someone to prepare it. "Outside Evra City, the second-level summoner Green personally came out to see him off.
Now following Locke, in addition to Ashar, there is also the little follower of Memila.
Memila had changed into her original coarse cloth clothes, and put on the fine silk dress that only nobles wore her, and when she put on her new clothes, she changed from Cinderella to Snow White in an instant.
Not only did the knights of the City Lord's Mansion who saw him off look sideways, but also made Locke take a few more looks.
It's just that Memila's mood is very low at this time, not only at this time, but since that night, Locke has not seen this little girl smile.
"Then take your leave. Locke clenched his fists and said, and Ashar also politely performed a magician etiquette to the Grimm summoner.
The magic materials provided by Summoner Green were not given for free, and in return, Locke and Ashar also exchanged a lot of materials unique to the Western Isles.
On the eve of leaving, Memila tugged at Locke's sleeve.
The only person this kid can communicate with at the moment is Locke, maybe Locke saved her, or maybe Locke's appearance helped her get revenge, so Memira would want to be Locke's apprentice.
"What?" Locke asked, this cheap apprentice Locke didn't want it at all, how could he teach the apprentice, if it weren't for Ashar's promise to Memila, Locke wouldn't care too much.
"My family still owes money, and although my father is dead, I want to pay off the debt first. Memira whispered.
Following Locke and Ashar to leave, this Nizi didn't have to worry about debts, but on the eve of leaving Evra City, she didn't forget to repay her debts, not to mention anything else, and this heart alone was recognized by Locke.
Touching Memila's head, he shoved a money bag into her hand, which was full of gold coins, and at a glance there were close to two hundred.
"Is that enough?" Locke asked.
"Enough, enough!" Memila's face flushed, and she didn't know if she was moved or embarrassed by Locke's touch.
After settling the debts of the Memila family, the three of them flew in the direction of the Gorl Forest.
This time I went to the Ghur Forest not to go to Aymoro City, the magic materials that Ashar needed had been prepared for her by the Green Summoner, and the purpose of going to Ghur Forest was that Ashar needed a quiet place where no one would disturb her, so that she could do her experiments.
Memila, of course, can't fly, and she's being held across her waist by Locke like a doll.
With her hands covering her eyes, Memila, who flew into the sky for the first time, didn't dare to look down at all, if it weren't for Locke always by her side, Memira might have screamed from the fear of being high.
"By the way, master, do you really want me to take in an apprentice?" said Locke in between flights, as he channeled his voice towards Ashar's spiritual power.
"Magicians advocate equal transactions, and I have made a deal with this child, and you don't need to really take her as an apprentice, and when the time comes, send this child to other countries to ensure that she has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life, and it can be regarded as equivalent compensation to her. Ashar said.
"That's good. Locke breathed a sigh of relief.
What the two of them didn't notice was that Memira grabbed Locke's hand tightly.
"By the way, do you know what this kid's talent is?" Locke asked.
Since they are rare talents, the difference between them and ordinary people with the qualifications to practice magic is that such people have some strange talents, or 'abilities'.
"I guess it's a talent for foresight and divination. Ashar said.
