Warlock Apprentice Chapter 832 - Family Banquet

Chapter 832: Family Banquet

“Angor?” Thewis repeated the na he just heard with a strange expression.

“What, you heard about him before?” Irisa grew curious. “Yeah, you definitely should. When I left from Fey Continent, everyone was still talking about a high-tier item he just made.”

“He can make high-tier alchemy items?”

“Yes, unless the rumors are wrong. But I don’t think that’s the case because people even got a piece of footage to prove it. I was too busy to check it out though.” Irisa shook her head in disappointnt. “It’s not easy to find a detailed footage record showing the birth of a high-tier item. I really need to ask for it when I get back.

“Angor’s such an honest little boy, you know? I did ask him to try his best, but I didn’t think he’d recreate the crown down to every last detail and went through all the effort to bring back the magic array on it as well.”

She thought about Angor’s irritated look when handing in the crown and couldn’t help smiling.

Thewis held his chin. “I heard his na recently, when I left the Marginalized Island last ti.”

“Soone from the Marginalized Island knows about Angor?”

“Yes. I found myself a student there. He’s called Leon Padt. He told about Angor.”

“Leon Padt? Oh, you said sothing about him last ti we talked. A diligent mortal who raised his spirit level above the minimum requirent for an apprentice solely by doing physical training?”

“That’s him. Before I ca to Sumrdew Ridge, he asked my help to look for Angor’s whereabouts.”

“Leon Padt. Wait... Padt? Angor Padt?! They’re family?” Irisa exclaid in great surprise.

“This explains why Leon wanted to hear from Angor.” Thewis nodded. “But sothing is off. Leon said Angor was supposed to be training in White Coral Floating Island Academy. But didn’t you say that Angor is an apprentice of Brute Cavern? And there’s another problem. Leon claid that his brother left the Marginalized Island four years ago. If we take his travels into consideration, then Angor only had three years to study wizardry. Soone like that can create high-tier alchemy inventions?”

“Anything is possible when God-blessed talent and destiny land on the sa person. Not to ntion Angor has an excellent teacher.” Irisa shrugged again. “Putting his extre talent aside, I believe he’s very likely to beco a true Master Alchemist in the near future. Heh... Angor’s brother is now your student, right? Then we just earned a good chance to approach him. It will be more convenient from now on to ask for his alchemy service.”

Thewis wasn’t sure about this because he had not seen Angor in person yet, and he did not know if Angor was soone who cared about his mortal family.

But Thewis would keep Angor’s na in mind nevertheless.

Next, they talked about other businesses happening around the wizarding world, such as the invasion in Abyss Plane and the monster disaster in Fairy World.

Soon, it was nightfall.

Irisa stood up. “I’m going. A bunch of madn in Floating ch City have their eyes on our shop. I can’t leave the old man tending to the shop alone for too long. Crap, I wouldn’t have co all the way here if not to deliver you the fake crown.”

“Thanks for your help.” Thewis stroked Irisa’s hair gently and felt his childhood mories coming back.

Irisa shook his hand off. “Leave your lovey-lovey stuff to Eureka. I don’t need it.”

“Madn... Did Goman King send more people to you?”

“No. Goman King hasn’t got the guts to disturb Floating ch City. I’m talking about so fanatics who believe in the Astute King.”

They left the private dinsion, and Irisa prepared to depart.

“One more thing,” Irisa spoke up before leaving, “why are you at Sumrdew Ridge in the first place? Do you perhaps... have a fondness for soone like Basket Witch?”

“I’m helping her with sothing, and nothing more. But whatever she was doing didn’t go well. If nothing bothers later, I’ll leave this place very soon.”

“What was she doing? Silver Palm Isle?”

Thewis remained quiet.

Irisa then gave him an “I got what you an” look and flew away.

...

Grue Town, Padt Manor.

The entire manor was basked in a joyous mood as the servants celebrated the return of their young master. Many of them, such as Head Maid Mana, had watched Angor grow up since his birth.

Even though they already had ti to talk during the day, Mana still couldn’t help weeping with excitent during their family banquet at night.

Leon surely didn’t want to interrupt the happy mont, but he had no choice but to ask all the servants to leave because he needed to speak with Angor in private.

They both had too many things to talk about, yet when it was finally ti, they found it difficult to find a topic to start for so reason.

It was Leon who initiated a conversation after a long, awkward silence. “How have you been all these years?”

Angor recalled his troubled life as an apprentice and felt as if everything were a dream.

“All is well.”

“Right... Mana just told that you beat the sh*t out of the Watcher and sparred with Miss Eureka without getting hurt at all. You definitely didn’t idle your ti away.” Leon looked rather jealous of Angor’s achievent. As the master of his family and the one to protect Angor’s ho, he never left Grue Town.

“I will never waste any ti. Mister Jon is waiting for .” Angor gave his brother a bright smile as he admired Leon’s manly features, which had developed in the past years.

Leon saw Angor’s passionate expression and looked away.

“Brother, how’s my teacher doing? I’ve always wanted to ask.” Angor didn’t feel reassured about Jon’s condition yet, but because Eureka had been in his ho for so ti, he just couldn’t find a chance to ask earlier today.

“Man... you spoke of him the mont you returned to us instead of caring for your good-o’ brother? I see. Jon’s more important to you.” Leon pretended that Angor hurt his feelings.

Angor sighed. “Co on. I can see with my eyes that you’ve been good and healthy. Can you tell about Jon now?”

“How about you share so of your stories first? I’m curious to know. Didn’t you go to an academy? What’s this ‘Brute Cavern’ place?” Leon picked up a wine glass and hid his face behind it.

“Don’t do this, brother. I’m not leaving ho any ti soon, so we have ample ti to talk about later. I need to know what’s happening to Jon, right now. Is-is he dead?” Angor failed to contain his anxiety this ti as his voice trembled.

Leon downed his glass of liquor with a grim look.

“Today’s supposed to be rry, so I’m planning to ntion this to you later.” Leon shook his head. “But since you asked... Jon is alive. But he’s not doing well.”

Angor quickly stood up from his seat. “As long as he’s breathing, I can help him! I already ascertained his illness. I can save him.”

“Sit down. No need to make haste yet. Do you know that he ca from another world and that the ‘consciousness’ of our world wanted him gone?”

“Mister Jon never kept his origin a secret, brother. We both know it.”

“I always thought he was lying, and that the place called ‘Earth’ was made-up. But it was all real.”

“Miss Eureka told you this?”

Leon nodded.

“Sheriff George told that Padt Manor was sealed off three years ago. Was that when Miss Eureka ca? And did she... stay here because of Jon?”

Leon saw Angor getting aggressive against Eureka and couldn’t help getting worried. “At first, Miss Eureka ca because she found our Morning Dew. But when she found out about Jon, she wanted to do so research—”

“Research? Yeah, right. Heh. What did she find out?”

“Nothing. Despite her intention, she has not co up with any result regarding Jon yet. The truth is, she said she had another reason that mainly kept her here, and Jon wasn’t important to her. But she didn’t tell what she truly wanted yet.”

“Likely story.” Angor disagreed. He knew what it ant in this world to find a human who ca from an unknown world. There was no wizard who would let such a discovery slip.

“Trust , Angor. Miss Eureka didn’t do anything to harm Jon. At least I never saw her doing so. On the contrary, it is partially Miss Eureka’s aid that kept Jon alive.”
