Sovereign of the Ashes

“As a gentleman, you should return these kidnapped magic initiates to where they were originally headed,” Lorianne began.

“However, since the Divine Tower of Ashes is currently in urgent need of initiates, I’ll pretend I didn’t see anything,” she said with an angelic smile.

Although there were only about two hundred initiates, it was still a good number for the Divine Tower of Ashes.

At the very least, the hired academy mages now had steady work for the foreseeable future.

Gone were the awkward days when a full-fledged mage had only five initiates to instruct.

Now, each of them had at least ten initiates under their guidance.

Compared to two years ago, the Divine Tower of Ashes had undergone some subtle changes.

For one, it no longer felt so empty. There were more people within the tower now.

The total number of registered mages at the Divine Tower of Ashes currently stood at ninety-six.

Of these, fifty-two were war mages who had joined because of the impending White Sand World War.

Another forty-four had been attracted by the tower’s generous offer.

Although fewer than one hundred full-fledged mages might seem a bit underwhelming for a divine tower, the Divine Tower of Ashes had made a solid start.
