Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 71: Chapter 71: Annie’s Shock

Within the Frost Wolf Ridge Manor.

Anne was quietly reading a book.

She enjoyed this tranquil feeling, just a simple life was fine.

However, her identity as a wizard destined her life to be extraordinary.

“If things could stay like this forever… it would be nice,” she murmured softly.

Annie couldn’t help but recall the scene from that day.

As the Duke Frost Wolf said, there really is no place in the Northern Lands more suitable for a witch’s life than Frost Wolf Ridge, after all, few lords are willing to shelter witches.

And Duke Frost Wolf wished to become part of the sorcerers, leading Duke Frost Wolf to join the sorcerer’s alliance, standing entirely against the Church.

If the sisterhood was willing, she felt she could indeed talk to Duke Frost Wolf about letting them settle in the depths of Frost Wolf Forest.

“It’s been half a month now, I wonder if Duke Frost Wolf has managed to complete his meditation.” Annie closed the book in her hand, her gaze turned to the sunset glow.

As night fell, she summoned the little white mouse again and infused her spiritual power into the little white mouse, letting it swiftly approach the castle.

Inside the castle.

David had just finished cultivating the breathing technique.

He glanced at the completely dark sky, standing still in the garden.

Last time, the sorceress appeared at this exact time, so whenever he’s in the castle, he always pauses here for a moment at this time.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes, looking towards the distance.

The little white mouse approached, and seeing David also caused the little creature a moment of hesitation.

Apparently, the little witch hadn’t expected that Duke Frost Wolf would be waiting for her here, whether it was by chance or intentionally waiting.

“You indeed come at this time,” David suddenly smiled.

Annie was startled, a hint of unusual emotion surfaced in her heart, from his tone she could tell this was deliberately waiting for her, the time and place matched perfectly.

She thought for a moment, then said, “Last time my mental exhaustion was too great, I couldn’t maintain the control effect of the summoning technique.”

“This time you can ask me any meditation questions you have.”

Upon hearing this, David gave a confident laugh, “What’s difficult about meditation, I’ve already condensed my spiritual power from the basic meditation method you provided and successfully mastered the ice element, becoming an ice mage.”

“You’ve already condensed your spiritual power?”

Even with Anne’s calm demeanor, hearing this she showed a surprised expression, somewhat unable to believe the information.

David said nothing but urged a trace of spiritual power within him to start invoking the ice element in the world around him, turning it into a block of ice in front of them!

Using spiritual power to invoke the elemental energy in the world, this is a power only sorcerers can master, completely different from bloodline knights who rely on the energy within their bloodline to wield elemental energy, yet far more powerful!

But even though sorcerers can use spiritual power to invoke elemental energy, seeing Duke Frost Wolf directly transforming the ice element into ice made her eyes widen again.

This level of control over ice, even for a Tier Three Mage might not be possible, yet Duke Frost Wolf performed this so effortlessly!

Now in her mind, she had only one thought; Duke Frost Wolf’s ice element talent must be insanely powerful, combined with the Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline enhancement, it’s the only possibility for such easy control over converting ice element energy into ice!

David was also consistently observing the reaction of the little white mouse.

Seeing the little white mouse indeed pause, a satisfied emotion showed in his eyes.

This time, he naturally exposed his wizard talent intentionally to attract the attention of the wizard organization, thereby boosting his status within it.

If the wizard organization feels he indeed has value to nurture, investing in him would naturally be the best, it’s only beneficial to him anyway.

“Your ice talent is indeed very strong.”

Annie regained her composure, her shock turned into a delighted expression.

Now having confirmed that Duke Frost Wolf has become a mage, she could relax, treating Duke Frost Wolf as part of the wizard community.

In this way, she could really consider allowing her companions to settle in Frost Wolf Ridge, with Duke Frost Wolf’s protection, it’s definitely the most suitable place for a wizard’s life in the Northern Lands.

And the sorcerer’s power could also help Duke Frost Wolf guard Frost Wolf Ridge.

“I wonder, do you have any inheritance of ice mages?” David directly asked, also because it was the most urgent need for him now.

Upon hearing this, Annie shook her head, “Sorry, I’m not well-versed in ice mages, and there are no ice mages among our companions.”

We.

A surge of disappointment passed through David, but the wizard’s words let him realize he had gained the wizard’s recognition, entering the circle of wizards.

“However, in the Far North, there are indeed organizations and ruins of ice mages, there’s still a possibility of acquiring ice mage inheritance,” Annie comforted.

Upon hearing this, David nodded; the Jingge Kingdom is situated in the Far North, after assisting Reina to reclaim the Jingge Kingdom, he could look around within the kingdom.

“What about my previous proposal?”

Annie knew what Duke Frost Wolf was referring to, and with a serious expression said, “I will have a good discussion with my companions, and will give you a response in due time.”

David nodded.

Subsequently, the two exchanged some insights on meditation cultivation.

From the wizard’s mouth, David also learned that there are potions within sorcerers that could assist meditation, but mixing them is even more difficult than secret medicine.

“Looks like I still need to earn money.”

After the wizard left, David contemplatively furrowed his brows.

It’s no wonder even the legendary ancient sorcerers established the Wizard Empire and various powerful wizard organizations; apparently, wizard cultivation is even more costly than knight training.

He glanced at the direction where the little white mouse departed and turned back to the castle.

Luckily, he still had another path to strengthen, still requiring hard work and perseverance; his journey as a sorcerer has only just begun, he must continue striving!

…

Within the Manor.

Upon confirming Duke Frost Wolf’s wizard identity, Annie eagerly summoned the Little Black Sparrow, placing the written letter into the test tube, letting the Little Black Sparrow swallow it.

Watching the Little Black Sparrow’s figure disappear within the summoning array, she exhaled a breath of relief.

Although she leaned towards staying at Frost Wolf Ridge, listing Duke Frost Wolf’s promises and the benefits of joining Frost Wolf Ridge, ultimately it depended on how her sisterhood chose.
