Chapter 1267: The First Academy War
“Actually, the Rank Two mage didn’t come back alone. When the Flacq returned, he brought back a girl,” Marie said as she stepped forward to report to Sein.
“A girl?” Sein raised his eyebrows.
“An eight-year-old female black magic initiate. Flacq found her when they broke into the black magic tower. When the entire tower blew up, he only managed to rescue this little girl who happened to be closest to him. But one of her arms was crippled,” Marie explained.
A young black magic initiate who had been rescued...
Hearing Marie’s account, Sein could not help but think of his own past.
And surely Marie felt the same way. That must have been why she chose to share this small detail with him.
Given her age, she would likely stay at the Divine Tower of Ashes to study while being “observed”.
This young black magic initiate had no direct link to Sein, yet for some reason, hearing about this child softened Sein’s earlier irritation.
Marie truly was a woman who knew how to manage people.
Though she had been with Sein for far less time than Selina and the others, she understood him better in some ways.
Sein shook his head and did not dwell on the thought for long.
Instead, he asked, “So, how do you feel about the Regional Inter-Divine Tower Academy War that’ll take place twenty-one years from now? Do you feel confident?”
