After only a brief moment of hesitation, Tasia made her decision.
Instead of worrying about encountering any unexpected events, curiosity about the person who was hiding behind the scenes and controlling the doll was more dominant at this moment.
What's more, if that person is really malicious towards me, I'm afraid he can kill him at any time...
Tasia didn't think she had the ability to resist such strange magic.
Yes, that must be a different kind of magic.
She firmly believed in this.
It's just that I'm still too weak now, so I can't understand how it works.
As long as you meet that person, you may have the opportunity to gain access to more advanced magical knowledge, and your abilities will become more powerful.
In this way, if I keep climbing up the ladder of knowledge, one day my healing magic will become enough to cure my mother's illness.
Tasia picked up her satchel, patted the dust on it, raised her legs and followed the guidance of the ugly doll.
Passing through rows of giant trees with leafy branches, Tasia came to a clearing surrounded by trees.
The bright and pure white moonlight shines down from above, making this seemingly isolated space appear particularly quiet.
The slight sound of stepping on dead branches and fallen leaves, along with the occasional chirping of insects, together tell the story of the inaccessibility of this place.
Tasia was inexplicably nervous.
This is obviously just a green area with deliberately increased vegetation coverage for the sake of beauty. It is not a deep mountain forest, but under the cover of darkness, it still gives people a sense of... It seems that something is hidden in the shadows, spying on you. A thrilling feeling.
The ugly doll jumped up to a tree.
Tasia looked up and was surprised to see a figure leaning on a branch.
This stranger who suddenly appeared was wearing an unusually large robe and a strange monster mask. It was unknown when he appeared.
He sat steadily, with one leg crossed under him and the other leg hanging in the air, swaying back and forth, seemingly very leisurely.
"Are you... Mr. Monster?"
Tasia's voice was full of surprise.
Wayne smiled.
Fortunately, the mask she bought last time was not thrown away. As expected, Tasia recognized "himself" at a glance.
Fortunately, Wayne and Echos have different body shapes and voices, and Tasia can still distinguish Wayne at a glance in a special way.
Although he doesn't know what the specific principle is, wouldn't this be a great convenience for him?
Tasia, who had great trust in her own judgment, would never have thought that the person in front of her was Wayne.
Hmm... This is probably what is called "darkness under the light".
"What? You picked up my new toy that day, and now you want to snatch it away from me in front of me?" He said pretending to be cold.
It was as if he had completely forgotten that he had snatched this ugly doll from someone else's house.
Under his justified condemnation, Tasia became a little embarrassed.
"No, no, I just... want to see you..." She explained at a loss.
"Oh? Now that you've seen it, you can leave."
Wayne began to play hard to get.
At the same time, he silently counted down in his mind: "3, 2, 1..."
After the countdown, Tasia couldn't help but persuade him to stay: "Please, please wait a moment!"
Seeing this strange man looking at her indifferently, Tasia struggled for a while and then asked with great difficulty: "Excuse me...can I keep in touch with you?"
Noticing that his eyes became strange, Tasia realized that her words seemed to be somewhat ambiguous, and quickly added: "I, I want to learn magic knowledge from my seniors!"
She bowed respectfully, "Please... I admire your senior's great strength very much..."
Seeing how sincere she was, Wayne fell silent.
Through some previous clues, he had already predicted that Tasia would be very interested in his powerful "magic".
very good.
Things went more smoothly than expected.
In this way, I have always maintained my superior demeanor and passed on to Echos's understanding of the magical knowledge of this world.
On the one hand, it can increase Tasia's strength, and on the other hand, it can exert influence on Tasia as a master.
Among those Long Aotian and Feng Aotian, aren't the protagonist's masters often amiable and like family members?
This is also one of the typical adventure packages blessed by the protagonist's halo.
As long as you operate it properly, isn't it easy to interfere a little bit in Tasia's future choices without leaving any trace? !
He said reservedly: "The magic of my lineage is never spread to outsiders..."
Tasia immediately answered with understanding: "Besides studying in the academy, I don't have any other masters. I hope to be lucky enough to be your disciple."
According to the convention of the kingdom, each magician apprentice can only have one teacher who leads the path of life at the same time.
Different from the ordinary teaching in the magic academy, formal apprenticeship is a very serious matter, which can be traced back to about a thousand years ago. Even before the emergence of collective teaching in the form of academies, individual apprenticeships were already very popular.
Among the magicians, knowledge is accumulated and passed down from generation to generation, and this tradition has been passed down to this day, and it is not uncommon to this day.
If you want to choose another master, you must either successfully complete the apprenticeship process or be expelled.
That's why Tasia specifically stated that she had no such hidden dangers.
Wayne nodded.
"Your magic affinity is very high, and it has a rare light attribute. I can indeed teach you, but...are you sure you want to be your master, a person of unknown origin like me?" he asked.
Tasia hesitated for a moment.
"Are you a bad person?"
Wayne smiled and asked: "Would a bad person say that he is a bad person?"
Tasia took a deep breath and made up her mind.
"When you were in Kosco City, you once took action against Count Alik in order to help Mr. Horace, a civilian. I believe you are not a bad person."
——If you find that he is a bad person, wait until you have learned something before you support justice.
Tasia thought silently.
This choice was a big gamble, and she had no certainty.
He knew almost nothing about the man in front of him.
I hope the final result isn't too bad.
Wayne knew nothing about her secret intention to deceive her master and destroy her ancestors. Seeing that her initial goal was achieved, she jumped down the tree trunk happily.
His large black robe looked mysterious in the moonlight.
"Then, from today on, you will be my chief disciple."
