Chapter 215 Newcomers Replace Old Ones, Ending One by One

Cloris was originally a child from a poor farmer's family in a village in the southern border, but when he was eight years old, several wizards from the Tower of Knowledge who came to the village completely changed his life trajectory.

After these wizards conducted apprenticeship tests on the children in the village, they discovered Cloris' amazing wizard talent. With the consent of his parents, they took him back to the Tower of Knowledge for training.

And Cloris did not disappoint. With his own talent and diligence, he became a formal wizard in just three years.

At the same time, his talent and hard work entered Allen's vision, and he naturally became Allen's student.

When Cloris was nineteen years old, he had reached the epic level, and his understanding of various witchcraft concepts was even more thorough than those old epic wizards.

Later, in order to hone him, Allen added him to the list of people rushing to help the King's Peninsula and sent him to the border of the peninsula to observe and eliminate the tide of darkness.

Now he has been at the border for a year, taking over the wizard who once managed the teleportation crystal.

The man finished writing the report carefully in the candlelight and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chloris looked outside the cabin and murmured, "Time flies by so fast."

He stood up and was about to go back to bed to start tonight's meditation, when suddenly he found a faint light flashing in his backpack.

He was stunned for a moment and took out the crystal from his backpack.

He looked dazed and recalled what the last wizard who managed the crystal said.

"The crystal is flashing, could it be that... Lord Narender is coming back?!"

Chloris' eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt extremely excited.

Although he had heard the name of Narender, the guardian of the empire and the owner of the Tower of Knowledge, from the village elders before he entered the wizard tower, he had never seen him in person.

He had gone to ask Allen about this before, and after learning that Chu Ming had left the empire to travel, he felt lost and yearning at the same time.

Sometimes he thought, if he had been born a few decades earlier, it would be great to go out and travel with the adults.

"Lord Narender..."

The always calm Chloris felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart, and he came to the outside of the cabin holding the teleportation crystal.

He stared at the glittering crystal in his hand, expecting the legendary night to fall here.

Although this fusion magic called Night Teleportation has appeared in the magic collection compiled by the Wizard Tower, there are not many wizards who can really practice it, and most of them are stumbling, unlike the rumor that Chu Ming can teleport an army with a wave of his hand.

Chloris waited quietly, and time soon came to late at night.

The teleportation crystal in his hand became brighter and brighter, and suddenly the light was as bright as day, and a night curtain unfolded beside him, with stars flowing on it, and bizarre scenes floating in it.

Chloris stared at the night curtain closely, and a wizard wearing a gray robe and looking very young walked out of it.

The wizard glanced around, set his eyes on Chloris, and asked, "Are you the wizard on duty here?"

In order to prevent himself from being rude in front of Chu Ming, Chloris secretly suppressed his excitement and nodded vigorously to Chu Ming.

"Lord Nalund, hello... hello, my name is Chloris, this is the border of King Peninsula."

Chu Ming glanced at the young man in front of him, and suddenly found something, and exclaimed, "How old are you?"

"My Lord, I'm 20 years old."

Chu Ming sighed, "You're still young."

"It seems that the Wizard Tower has a successor."

"Keep doing your best."

Chu Ming patted his shoulder and turned away.

Chloris stood there blankly, his face flushed, and the excitement finally showed on his face.

As soon as he returned to King Peninsula, Chu Ming first went to Niho College for a look.

But to his regret, Lucas had passed away 20 years ago, and Fia was gone, and a young man took over her position as the dean.

When the new dean saw Chu Ming, he immediately remembered Lucas's instructions before his death, and excitedly wanted to invite Chu Ming to the auditorium for dinner.

Chu Ming politely declined the man's invitation, encouraged him a few words, and then left Niho College and teleported to the direction of the Fengyang Empire.

A day later, Chu Ming appeared in the northern passage.

Although it is called a passage, three new provinces of the empire have been opened up here, completely wrapping the passage inside.

Chu Ming found the location of the new generation of pioneer knights and wanted to meet Edel, but to his surprise, it was not Edel himself who was holding the teleportation crystal, but a strange young girl.

The girl was wearing silver-white streamlined armor, and her helmet covered her face.

After seeing Chu Ming walk out of the night, the girl knight who was still fighting the epic creature was obviously stunned.

In this moment of daze, the epic creature opposite her seized the opportunity and pounced on the girl with its fangs and claws.

"Oops!"

The girl shouted secretly, and she stretched out her right hand, and an invisible pressure came out of her body, falling heavily on the epic creature.

"Roar!"

The creature that looked like a giant bear roared, ignored the pressure, and slapped her with its huge claws.

The girl's eyes narrowed slightly, and countless green energy emerged from her body and cut towards the giant claw, but it was useless. The giant bear hated the human in front of it so much that it was determined to take down the giant claw even at the risk of serious injury.

At this critical moment, Chu Ming, who had been watching the battle next to her, spoke up.

"Not bad."

The next second, golden ripples appeared on his heart with intimidation.

Boom! !

The giant bear's heart exploded, and it fell down with fear in its eyes.

The girl lay on the ground, gasping for breath, and then looked at Chu Ming, her tone became excited, "Are you Uncle Narender?"

Her voice was as clear as a bird, and the green energy on her body was retracted, and the helmet dissipated, revealing a face that was somewhat similar to Edel, with heroic beauty.

The girl's eyes like spring water rippled, and she smiled sweetly, "My name is Shalena, Shalena Kutz."

Chu Ming's eyes flashed with a trance, and he sighed: "Yes, I'm back."

I didn't expect that after so many years, Edel's children have grown up so much, which made him feel like he was in another world.

"Hehe..." Shalena laughed joyfully. She looked at Chu Ming with admiration. "Uncle Nalund, I heard from my father that you went to travel the world. I am a little curious about what the outside world is like."

Shalena grew up listening to Chu Ming's stories, from defeating epic beasts to the shocking public trial in the capital, the war of the northern passage, the forbidden war... She never got tired of listening to these stories. She dreamed of becoming a great hero like Chu Ming and her father Edel.

Her father Edel would also hold her hand from time to time and brag to her about his experiences in the past. He would also regret that he did not go out with Chu Ming when he sighed.

Chu Ming stroked her head, "Traveling the world is not an easy thing, and if you are alone, you have to walk in the dark for several years or even decades, which is not as good as you think."

The girl held his hand and said coquettishly: "Then I must bring a lot of people with me when I go out in the future, so that I won't be bored."

"It's really a good thing to go out more."

Chu Ming smiled and nodded, without discouraging the girl.

"By the way, where is your father now? I just came back and I'm going to look for him."

Sarina heard this and chuckled softly, "Father is now dealing with those troublesome nobles. There are so many of them, and they are all so selfish that they will definitely surrender."

As she said this, the girl looked at him and asked excitedly, "Uncle Narender, how did you come up with this way to make those nobles suffer?"

"Just read more books."

Chu Ming waved to the girl, "I'm leaving, I'll come to see you later."

After saying goodbye to Sarina, Chu Ming spent some time teleporting back to the wizard's hut.

As soon as he returned to the hut, he heard a pleasant humming coming from the kitchen.

He looked over and saw that Fia, who had become more mature, was making breakfast and had no idea that he was back.

Chu Ming approached and asked curiously, "What are you cooking?"

"I'm... why did you come back suddenly?!"

Fia was startled and glared at Chu Ming.

"Why didn't you tell me you were back? I was scared to death."

Chu Ming spread his hands and said, "I haven't been back for so long, can't you say something nice?"

The woman said unhappily, "I'll treat you to some soup, okay?"

She picked up the ceramic bowl and filled it with soup for Chu Ming.

Chu Ming took a sip of the soup and complained, "Drinking soup in the morning is really weird."

"Hmph, if you don't want to drink it, spit it out."

"Delicious!"

Chu Ming gave her a thumbs up.

"That's about right."

Fia raised the corner of her mouth and smiled proudly.

"By the way, I brought you a different secret method."

...

After resting for a day in the wizard's hut, Chu Ming teleported to the direction of the Earl of Severe Winter.

Earl of Severe Winter, in the square of Severe Winter City.

"Lord, please let us go!"

Several nobles knelt on the ground and begged Edel bitterly.

After so many years, Edel's temples have already turned gray. He has a faint smile on his face and an invisible threat on his body.

"Viscount Susan, what are you talking about? The Empire will certainly not do anything to you. It's just that you privately occupied the Empire's territory. Even if I am more tolerant and let you avoid punishment, this land will also belong to the Empire."

After hearing this, the nobles beat their chests and stamped their feet, crying bitterly.

Territory is everything to these nobles. Edel is not asking for their territory, but their lives.

Seeing their appearance, Edel whispered: "Everyone, even if the territory is taken back, you can still enjoy the noble title in the past. If you continue to make trouble like this, the Empire will consider retrial of your crimes and deprive you of your title."

As soon as these words came out, the nobles who had been crying immediately stopped crying, and looked at Edel with resentful eyes like a wronged little woman.

Ignoring these nobles, Edel rode his horse to the next town.

Suddenly, a voice sounded from beside him.

"Edel, I'm back."

The man's body stiffened and he looked to the side.

The night faded away, and Chu Ming's figure emerged from inside.

Edel's brows relaxed and he smiled sincerely, "You're finally back, otherwise I would have thought something was wrong with you."

"Would you like to have a drink?"

Chu Ming pointed to a tavern not far away.

"Come!"

"But don't go to this one." Edel dismounted, leaned over to him and whispered, "The beer here is terrible, I know a good one."

Chu Ming glanced at him in surprise, "I didn't expect you to do research on this."

Edel smiled and said: "I have been out with the Cavaliers a lot, so naturally I know it."

The two of them talked and laughed and walked towards the city alley.

A group of knights stood there blankly, looking at each other, wondering whether they should follow.

…

After reminiscing with Edel, Chu Ming came to the Tower of Knowledge and found Allen leisurely basking in the sun on the observatory at the top of the tower.

"Narende?!"

Allen sat up from his chair with a look of surprise on his face.

Chu Ming patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Why are you starting to support yourself in old age? I remember you always looked like you were fighting hard."

Allen said helplessly: "Recognize the reality, I can't touch the edge of the legendary level."

"And today's young people are getting better and better. It's just right for me to retire."

He smiled and said: "It feels so good that no one is urging me to do things. I had already thought about it when I wanted to become a wizard in the Border Wizard Tower. I must accept the service of other slaves comfortably and don't have to worry about cultivation or anything."

"Yeah, this feels so good."

Chu Ming sighed.

There is a high probability that he will not go out again when he comes back this time. After all, these old friends of his are approaching the end of their lifespan one by one. If he goes out, he may leave eternal regrets.

But in fact, watching the people around you grow old one by one is not a kind of torture.

Chu Ming lay on the chair, admiring the white clouds and birds outside the tower with Allen. At this moment, it seemed that time had slowed down and the day had become longer.

…

Black Iron City in the South, Life Church.

In the attic, Isabel, whose appearance had not changed at all, took off her golden crown with a chuckle and put it on the head of a cute and delicate girl.

"Kuer, from now on you will be the saint of the Church of Life."

The little girl touched the golden crown on her head with bright eyes and smiled happily.

"Go and find the high priest. My sister still has something to do."

Isabel stroked her hair and said softly.

"Um!"

The girl said goodbye to Isabel and left the attic happily with the priest.

Isabel smiled and watched the girl leave. It was not until the door was closed that she turned back to look at Maple Flower hiding in the curtains.

"Come out quickly, Kerr has left."

Fenghua carefully stuck out her head and pouted, "Fenghua hates children."

"Maple Blossom likes Isabel, hee hee."

The little goblin that emitted a faint light flew to Isabel's shoulder with a smile, hugged her face and rubbed it.

The girl let out a laughter as clear as a silver bell, "Fenghua, don't make trouble, Mr. Wizard is coming back."

"That guy is coming back?!"

The little goblin's body stiffened suddenly, and then became soft again. She pouted and said, "Why did this guy take so long to come back? He is still... so missed."

"is that true?"

A voice suddenly came from inside the room.

"ah!"

Fenghua was startled and quickly hid in Isabel's sleeve, "You...why did you come so quickly."

Chu Ming smiled and said, "Because I know you are missing me."

"That's...no such thing."

Fenghua covered her face with her white sleeves, not daring to let Chu Ming see her blushing face from shyness.

Isabel stood up, her eyes dim, and she confided to Chu Ming: "Polly is gone."

Chu Ming was stunned, stroking her golden hair softly, "Can you take me to have a look?"

"Um."

Isabel took the initiative to hold his hand and led him to the cemetery in the backyard of the church. Through the stone monuments, they came to a small fluorescent flower.

Looking at the little flower, Chu Ming fell into silence, with sadness in his eyes.

Even though he knew that he could still meet Pearly in reality, this situation made him quite emotional.

Isabel squatted down and stared at Xiaohua for a long time. She smiled and said, "If Pearly knew you were back, she would be very happy."

"When we were in Moore Town, it wouldn't leave you no matter what. It must like you very much."

The memory was touched, and Chu Ming recalled the encounter with the girl in the alley.

At first, he only saw Isabel as trouble, but then unknowingly, the relationship between the two became better and better.

While he was still thinking, Isabel suddenly hugged him.

The girl said easily: "I am no longer the high priest. I will go wherever you go from now on, but don't abandon me."

Chu Ming smiled and said, "You are so cute, how could I abandon you?"

"Let's go, I'll take you to the King's Peninsula for a walk. There must be many things you haven't seen there."

"Um."

Isabel smiled expectantly.

Chu Ming tore through the night and left the church with Isabel and Fenghua.

…

Time is like running water, rushing forward in an instant and never returning.

One evening twenty-three years later, Allen lay on a chair with a faint smile on his face and left the world forever.

Even though he had predicted this ending, Chu Ming was still a little sad on the day he attended Allen's funeral.

A new generation replaced the old. After Allen left, his student Chloris stepped forward to take over the management of the Tower of Knowledge and devoted himself to the training of wizards.

Cloris was already middle-aged. With both talent and diligence, he had already reached the limit of epic. After he took over the Tower of Knowledge, everything soon returned to normal operation.

More than a decade later, the elderly Edel also followed Allen and passed away.

On the day the monarch died, the whole country mourned. After losing Edel, the backbone, the empire fell into a state of stagnation.

Finally, Edel's daughter Shalena rushed back to the new capital and was crowned the new king with the support of everyone, and was honored as the monarch of Shalena.

After that, faces familiar to Chu Ming - Sulaya, Claire, Feiya... passed away one after another.

Feiya had a premonition the day before her death. She called Chu Ming back and asked Chu Ming to send her back to Niho College and bury her body with everyone in the Blood Riders.

Familiar people left the world one by one, and new faces continued to come to power. In the end, only Isabel and Chu Ming were left to support each other and move forward.

Although the Stigmata of Life gave the girl strong vitality and prevented her from aging, it could not prevent her lifespan from reaching its limit. One day, Isabel would also have the same ending.
