Chapter 1261: Chapter 113 The Papal Armies Dispatch_5
Olivia and Elder Feng Zhi pushed the door open and, seeing the two spirited figures, Elder Feng Zhi sincerely exclaimed, "Elder Ah Dai, your cultivation is truly profound! Both of you have recovered, haven’t you?"
Ah Dai floated down from the bed, filled with the comfortable sensation of True Qi, and smiled, "We have fully recovered, Elder Feng Zhi. The Tian Jing Mage Guild hasn’t caused any more trouble, right?" What he was most concerned about was the affairs between the two Mage Guilds, fearing any further conflicts.
Elder Feng Zhi sighed deeply and said, "Ever since I witnessed the final clash between you and Larthas, I’ve already lost all desire to compete. Let nature take its course. Larthas was seriously injured, it will take him quite some time to recover, not to mention the Alchemist Guild mediating between us. For some time, our two Guilds should be able to coexist peacefully."
Relieved, Ah Dai said, "That’s good to hear, Elder Feng Zhi. Our powers have recovered, and there are some matters we must attend to, so we shall take our leave now." Having experienced the past entanglements in the Province of Light’s military, Ah Dai knew that if they stayed longer, the magicians here might be even more enthusiastic than those soldiers were back then.
Before Elder Feng Zhi could reply, Olivia suddenly knelt down with a thud, pleading, "Teacher Ah Dai, please accept me as your disciple and allow me to follow you and learn."
Ah Dai was taken aback, looking at Olivia who brought up old matters, and frowned, "But, I really have nothing I can teach you!"
Elder Feng Zhi smiled and said, "Brother Ah Dai, don’t be modest. We’ve all seen the strength you displayed. Olivia is a child I’ve watched grow up. He is pure-hearted and his dedication to magic surpasses even mine. Please accept him, ever since the two of you began your cultivation, he has been guarding outside your door, he is a pillar of the Guild, letting him experience more with you will surely greatly benefit his magical cultivation."
Ah Dai, finding it difficult, looked towards Xuan Yue, unsure of how to respond. Olivia hurriedly said, "Teacher Ah Dai, please accept me. Even if you teach me nothing, just allowing me to follow you would fill me with contentment."
Although Olivia’s presence might affect her time with Ah Dai, Xuan Yue still supported him coming along, "Big brother, accept him. Even if you can’t teach him, I can guide him. His Wind Magic is strong; having another magician is always beneficial." Turning to Olivia, Xuan Yue seriously said, "However, I must make it clear to you beforehand that our destination is the Death Mountain Range, think carefully about whether you want to go with us. In that deadly world, we might not be able to look after you."
Both Elder Feng Zhi and Olivia were shocked, Elder Feng Zhi frowning, "You are going to the Death Mountain Range? It’s very dangerous there."
Xuan Yue smiled and replied, "Only in dangerous places can we truly unleash our potential and improve our powers. Olivia, do you have the courage?"
Olivia’s firm voice responded, "I am willing, I am willing to accompany the two teachers to the Death Mountain Range, even if it means dying there, I will have no regrets. You are right, only in dangerous places can one truly enhance one’s abilities, and indeed, only the Death Mountain Range could attract both teachers to undergo trials."
Ah Dai and Xuan Yue were moved by Olivia’s resolve, Ah Dai sighed helplessly and said, "Alright then, Brother Olivia, follow us. But let’s get this straight, I’m not really your teacher, let’s just be friends and call each other brothers." While speaking, he helped Olivia up.
A hint of disappointment flashed in Olivia’s eyes, but he firmly believed his sincerity would eventually move Ah Dai, nodding he said, "Alright, Teacher Ah Dai, just allowing me to follow you is enough."
Xuan Yue laughed, "You’re mistaken again, stop calling me ’teacher’ from now on. How old are you this year?"
Olivia scratched his head, saying, "I was born in August of the Sacred Calendar year 977. It’s July now, and in a month I’ll be twenty years old."
Xuan Yue nodded, "Then you’re older than me; I was born in the Sacred Calendar year 979, two years younger than you. You should just call me Xuan Re brother. Big brother, what about you?"
Ah Dai said, "I think I was born in March of 977, so I’m a bit older than Olivia."
