Chapter 2106: Master and Disciple Meet
Everyone has a period of youth and ignorance.
Catherine also had one, and it was when she was studying at the Imperial Public Magic Academy.
But the gap in reality made Catherine at that time not have the courage to take that step.
She didn't even express her own feelings, but put all her energy into learning magic.
Later, Catherine came out of the regional Santa Academy war with excellent results, and after being promoted to the first level, she also returned to the school where she studied in the Beren Empire for several years.
However, the past has changed.
Even the boy that Catherine liked when she was in her teens has become a middle-aged nobleman in his forties with a big belly, which made Catherine, who had been promoted to the first level, at a loss.
Now several decades have passed, and the little noble who has not yet reached the level of senior apprentice should have been buried...
Since then, Catherine has never had any other ideas, and now she is focused on exploring the mystery of truth.
That magic book that Catherine has not yet understood has become Catherine's obsession.
The goal she set for herself is to try to crack it completely within the next 130 years.
And this period of time is exactly the length of the registered magician contract signed by Catherine and the Ashes Holy Tower.
To be honest, Catherine is now more and more suspicious that the rumor that someone took a fancy to her and wanted to take her as a disciple was a rumor.
There is a theoretical basis for Catherine to report to the Ashes Holy Tower a few decades after the end of the regional Saint Tower Academy war.
Although her contract with the Sun Holy Tower was 100 years, her contract with the Beren Military Department was 130 years, and her contract with the Imperial Public Magic Academy was 10 years.
But because of her excellent personal score of the top 100, various welfare policies were halved.
That's so many years!
Catherine never took any backdoors from beginning to end!
After being promoted to the first level, she really went to the resource demiplane under the rule of the Beren Empire-Abek World, and worked as a garrison magician for 20 years.
That was also the first alien world Catherine had been to.
As for why she came to the Ash Tower instead of staying in the Sun Tower and the Beren Empire.
Of course, it was because the development potential of the Ash Tower was higher.
Since there was "help from a noble person" here, why couldn't Catherine come?
She didn't come before just to fulfill her contract promise for the obsession in her heart and her gratitude to the Sun Tower, the Beren Empire and the second-level old lady Lannie.
In the end, since it had been completed, including the old lady Lannie, she strongly recommended Catherine to go to the Ash Tower to explore the truth, so she came.
And the smart Catherine felt that the magic book in her hand and the "favorable treatment" she had received in the Sun Tower and the Beren Empire in recent years seemed to be related to the "big man" who had taken a fancy to her at the beginning.
Only after coming to the Ash Tower, it seemed that there was no preferential treatment at all, and everything was done in a public manner.
I heard from old lady Lannie that it was Master Meili, the dean of the Holy Tower of Ashes, who took a fancy to me.
But from that one and only meeting, Catherine felt that it was not Master Meili.
Master Meili was just the dean of the Holy Tower Academy at that time. She recorded the Holy Tower mark representing Catherine into the crystal ball and issued a matching Holy Tower residence and identity badge to Catherine.
This is Meili's duty as the dean of the Holy Tower.
Even if the rumor that someone took a fancy to me at that time was just a "rumor", Catherine doesn't care much now.
To be honest, the Holy Tower of Ashes, which is in a period of rapid development, is indeed more suitable for the development of new magicians like Catherine than the old-fashioned Holy Tower of Sun.
And the registered magician benefits of the Holy Tower of Ashes are indeed better than those of the Holy Tower of Sun.
No wonder the Holy Tower of Ashes has such a prosperous scene less than 10,000 years after its establishment.
Fifteen years ago, Catherine even went to the Flame Worm World controlled by the subordinates of the Holy Ash Tower and stayed there for two years.
That strange plane also brought Catherine many surprises and enriched her specimen collection room. 🅆
Catherine has calmed down now.
Even if what happened back then was just her illusion and "misunderstanding", it doesn't matter.
After the 200-year contract with the Holy Ash Tower ended, Catherine planned to visit other places in the wizard world, and even travel to many other worlds under the Wizard Alliance to broaden her horizons.
Even though the wizard civilization is currently in a period of war, Catherine, as a member of the Holy Ash Tower, may be transferred to the front line at any time.
The garrison mission she performed for the Beren Military Department before was actually a strategic resource fortress not far from the wizard world.
In a sense, Catherine has already intervened in the civilization war.
The extremely large and magnificent war between top civilizations was not so friendly to a first-level magician like Catherine.
Only those above level 4 were qualified to claim that they had the ability to protect themselves in such a top-level civilization war.
Catherine had also heard the old predecessors who had participated in the front-line war talk about the bloodiness and cruelty of the civilization war and plane war.
Under the premise that her personal strength has not been guaranteed, how could Catherine divert her attention and invest in boring emotions?
When Catherine was more than ten years old, she gave up her youthful and ignorant emotions and invested in the process of studying hard.
It can be seen that she is an extremely rational and calm person who can constantly inspire herself to get closer to her goals for the sake of her goals.
What is even more valuable is that she has her own bottom line and position.
The crystal rose placed in front of Catherine's Santa residence came from a first-level magician named Barado, who was also a magician who participated in the Santa Academy War seventy years ago, and this person stated that he was fascinated by Catherine that year.
Even this guy was directly eliminated by Catherine in the Academy War.
It's a pity that Catherine has no feelings for Barado, and he comes from a well-known magic family, and Barado, who gave birth to a third-level great magician, wants to start a family with Catherine, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as liking her.
Like the knight families, those magic families often combine with powerful magicians of the same level in order to continue excellent offspring.
The offspring of two first-level magicians have at least a 60% chance of being promoted to the first level.
This is one of the reasons why many knight and magician families in the wizarding world have been prosperous for a long time.
With a frown, Catherine picked up the crystal rose in front of her and opened the door to her residence.
But what Catherine didn't expect was that someone had already entered her room in advance.
At this time, a mysterious man wearing a mask appeared in front of Catherine.
