Chapter 15 Healing Ice Coffin

Not only the card guards, but also a lot of cute dolls appeared, and above all, Angel found that the rabbit, who had been reading the book, had slowly started to float in front of his eyes, staring at him with its beady red eyes.


Angel could not fathom its gaze, but he felt an inexplicably creepy sense as he stared straight into them.


The previous sense of loveliness was gone, and everything Angel saw in front of him brought nothing but horror.


A card guard suddenly pounced near Angel, who was still in shock, picked up the book on the table and threw it at the other card guard.


The purple picture book traveled in mid-air, suddenly releasing out a large mouth full of fangs from the drawing on the cover, chewing and swallowing up the card guard directly in front of it.


In front of this scene, Angel was completely shocked, while the surrounding creatures were attracted by the bloody mouth, Angel suddenly burst out from the siege and started flying at full speed towards the exit of the hall.


“Hey, Sharapova don’t run, come and play with me~” a lonely female voice said as it sounded from behind.


Angel heard it, but continued without pause, he flew quickly to the next corner.


He remembered that all he had to do was turn the corner to get back into the storeroom.


He’ll be safe in the storeroom!


He doesn’t know where this idea came from, and doesn’t know whether it was right or wrong, even though Angel could not tell the difference between true and false, this was the only option he had.


The door to the storeroom came closer, and Angel strode right through it.


As he stepped through the entrance, he felt a great pain at his back and fell to the ground.


Looking behind, he saw a woman with red hair, heavy makeup ,and a dense amount of stitches on her face outside the door, she was dressed in a gorgeous and complicated dark striped dress, with a black peach heart symbol on the crown she wore on her head.


Angel did not know who she was, but he found a little blood dripping from her sharp fingernails.


Combined with the sharp pain on his back, Angel had no doubt that the blood was his.


The stitched sewn woman roared with malice in her eyes, but no matter how angry she cursed, she could not cross the boundary into the storeroom.


It’s like the door of the storeroom isolated the two different worlds.

Angel watched on for a long time and found that the other party really could not get in, which brought a sense of little relief.


But after relaxing a bit, Angel began to worry again.


He dodged a bullet, but what should he do in the meantime?


Angel looked again at the storeroom, leaving aside the tables, chairs, and lit candles, the red crystal ball, the Eye of Abellas, the ball that finds talent was still there.


Looking at the red shining crystal ball, Angel approached it with a touch of greed and gently put it in his hand.


…….


“Ah, I didn’t expect that in this remote town, I not only found a chance to advance, but also a talented person! God blessed Morrow, God bless my Monne family!”


The sound of Morrow laughing came into Angel’s ears.


After a while, Angel found himself back in the real world.


The people around him looked at him with surprise and envy, and there was nothing strange about him at all.


Didn’t they understand that he just crossed?


Or was that just the ‘change’ when talents test their talent?


If that was really the ‘change’, it is just too thrilling!


Angel was still in a daze thinking about the fantasy in the parallel world when he suddenly felt the palm of his hand held tight as he looked back. Leon saw that he was in a daze and pinched the palm of his hand.


“Angel, don’t be in a daze. Sir Morrow is asking you what your ‘change’ was.” laughed Leon.


“Oh.” Angel answered gloomily.


He was not happy that he became a talent, only after avoiding life threatening danger did he now feel a thick sense of fatigue, “I touched the talent ball, found myself floating in mid-air.”


Before Angel finished, Morrow interrupted, “Floating? Yes, that’s a change! You are a talented person, there is no doubt about it!”


Originally, Angel wanted to speak further about his experience in the ‘parallel space’.


But being interrupted by Morrow, he did not speak any more, but nodded his head in agreement and went back to his place with a polite smile.


“Sir Morrow, since I have talent, can I now worship you as a teacher and learn wizard’s magic?”


Although there was an unpleasant encounter in the parallel space that led to a sudden change in Angel’s mood, it did not affect his will to become a wizard.


As he took back the talent ball, Morrow smiled and said, “I am wizard apprentice myself. I am not qualified to teach you. But this time I came to the Old Land in order to find talents for the college. You have talent and can pursue the extraordinary path. Tomorrow you will leave Old Land with me and go to my college to study! Although White Coral Floating Island College is not the biggest in the southern region of wizard organizations, it also can also be considered a top contender, which will not allow our talents to feel humiliated!”


After listening to Morrow’s explanation, Angel was stunned for a moment.


He has to travel away of from here and head off to the unknown White Coral Floating Island College?


Even though Angel had guessed it from earlier, he was still a little overwhelmed by hearing it aloud.


Can his mentor’s illness last until he comes back from his studies?


Besides, he promised his brother that he would accompany him to his succession ceremony, and that they would leave tomorrow. He wonders when there will be time for good-byes if that is the case.


Angel’s eyes were so dim that he did not even notice that his thumbs and index finger were rubbing back and forth, which was his subconscious action of hesitation.


Leon was naturally reluctant to look at Angel in this state, so he stepped forward, took Angel by the shoulder, and whispered in his ear, “Don’t worry little brother, didn’t you hear Sir Morrow saying that this was a college? You are just heading off to school. It’s like every spring you head off to Watford Aristocratic College. It’ll be over soon. You’ll be back at the manor soon with us waiting for you to come back.”


Angel: “But…”


Angel wanted to continue speaking but was stopped. As Angel’s own brother, how could he not know the worry in his brother’s heart?


Leon: “If you’re worried about old Jon, I’ll go to Watford this time and find the best doctor to treat him. Even if we run out of all our money, we will keep him alive and wait for your arrival when you come back and save him.”


Angel did not speak further, his brother only thought that Jon’s body was suffering from some pain, he doesn’t know that the plane consciousness was excluding Jon, so no one can save Jon unless a formal wizard steps up.


Just as Angel was struggling with the dilemma, Morrow opened his mouth and said.


“You can’t be rest assured leaving your mentor like that?”


“Mm-hmm.”


In fact, Morrow does not understand why Angel is so attached to Jon, who is only a teacher of enlightenment, he is not a mentor, nor a relative.


This makes it difficult for Morrow to understand the feelings this friend from the forgotten land still holds.


Looking deeply at Angel, Morrow suddenly said, “I have spent two years of my savings at Scarlet Auction House to buy a magic leather scroll called Healing Ice coffin. Although Healing Ice Coffin cannot cure your mentor, it can temporarily ensure that your mentor’s vital signs will not dissipate, but it only last for about five years. Would you like to use it?”


Five years?


Angel’s pupils dilated sharply. There are a lot of things that can change in five years. Angel doesn’t believe he can be a wizard in five years, but as long as he has this chance, there is hope, right?


Angel was about to say yes to Morrow when he saw Leon come forward and bow to ask Morrow. “There is no free lunch in the world. Although I do not understand the world of wizards, as Sir Morrow just said, wizards should be human too. As long as one is human, they can’t escape this truth. So what are the conditions in which Sir Morrow is willing to spend so much money to help Jon?”


Leon’s words woke Angel up.


Morrow is just a wizard apprentice, no matter how few talents there are, they will not care too much about wizard apprentice who is had just become a talent.


So…


What price does Morrow ask of him that he was willing to send over such an expensive Healing Ice Coffin?


Morrow looked up and down at Leon with admiration. “In five years, Angel’s chances of becoming a wizard are infinitely close to zero, so this Healing Ice Coffin is basically sent in vain; but I’m still willing to give it to him. As long as Angel is willing to promise me one condition.”
