"Goodbye to the teacher." The magic girls left the room one after another.

Gene was also pulled away by Erin.

But when everyone left, there was still one person who stayed in the room and didn't leave, that was the gray curly girl Blanche.

"Mother." The gray-haired girl whispered the title until she made sure everyone had left far away. She had just called Flinda the teacher like everyone else.

"Hmm?" Flinda was busy in the room and responded with a light nasal voice.

It was obvious that she was very excited about the next trip to the Dark Valley and was in a good mood! She hummed a song, opened her magic pocket on the table, collected things that might be used in the room, and put them all into her magic pocket. She took a silver quill, a roll of sheepskin, a magnifying glass, three small bottles of unknown liquid... Of course, there were three-color magic crystal balls that she almost never left.

"Mother, I successfully released the fireball technique in the dark valley!" Blanche whispered, looking at the middle-aged female magician with hope.

"Oh, is that so good." Flinda nodded, then took a heavy book with a six-pointed star on the cover from the bookshelf and put it in his magic pocket.

"…and more than once." Blanche bit her lip and added.

This time the great wizard finally stopped her movements a little.

She first looked up at the gray-haired girl, and then smiled: "You should have mastered the fireball technique long ago. As an intern magician who has awakened the mark of light and has engraved this skill, it is not difficult! Now, since you can release the fireball, go back to your own room to practice more, and master it perfectly as soon as possible."

"Is there anything else?" The great wizard lowered his head again and continued to work hard.

"...It's okay." Blanche didn't say anything, silently exited the room, and closed the door quietly.

"There are 63 floors in total. The bottom thirty floor is where the servants live and work, the middle twentieth floor is the residence of us magic apprentices, and the top thirteen floors are all the teachers' own." On the spiral staircase, Erin pulled Gene down the stairs and introduced casually.

Gene was still not used to the gravity of the stairs, and was completely pulled by Erin. He asked nervously: "Miss? Are they those gray-robed men?"

"Yes." Erin smiled casually, "They are all ordinary people. You don't have to care too much about them. It is their honor to be able to work in the teacher's mage tower! The salary is high, and maybe you can get some broken magic items. Ordinary people can't get such a good job."

"I was startled when I first came in. I didn't expect it to be so lively. I thought that magicians are all strangers and should not be approached..." Gene said stutteringly.

"Haha!" Erin seemed to hear the funnyest joke, and suddenly tilted her head and turned her face to Gene, "What, do you think I look scary? The magician is not a man-eating dragon or an old witch with a pointed nose. We are also adventurers, just like archers."

The girlish aura that came to his face suddenly made Gene blush and quickly turned his head.

Erin quickly tilted her head back, then continued downstairs, and after floating down a few steps, she suddenly stood there and pushed open a door next to her.

"Here, it's here." The red-haired girl whispered into the door, "You should live here before His Highness Glen took you away!"

Gene leaned into the door.

It's a very ordinary room with no weird brooms or terrible creatures, only normal tables, beds, daily necessities and stoves.

"Thank you... what floor is this?" Gene was a little confused.

"The fiftieth floor of the entire tower! It is also the highest floor of the middle area." Erin explained, "The entire middle area is for the teacher's disciples to live in. The higher the number of floors, the more you are valued by the teacher. You are the teacher's distinguished guest, so it is natural to live on the upper floor!"

"That's so thankful..."

"No need to thank you, because I live next to you! The teacher asked me to help you get familiar with the environment, so it would be convenient for you to ask me if you have something to do." Erin shrugged and suddenly stretched out exaggeratedly, "Okay, let's not talk about it, it's so tiring all the way. I'm going to take a shower and then cover my head and have a good sleep!"

She said that, without looking back, she walked into her room.

——————————

Deep in the dark valley.

In the ruins of the battle, a tall female figure in a dark black magic robe walked slowly among them.

The corners of her mouth under the brim of her hat raised up, showing a gentle smile. Wherever her hands gently brushed by, small spots of red, blue and yellow will appear.

They cheered around her fingertips, flying around, like naughty children.

And Flinda's eyes looked at them were indeed as gentle as her mother.

"Well, there are indeed more natural elements here than other places." Master Flinda whispered to himself, "But only because of the large number of water and fire elements, the concentration of the earth element seems to be no different from other places... And even the two elements of water and fire seem to be not as rich as Erin described?"

She stopped, thought for a while, and suddenly raised a finger.

[Fireball.]

Without using a staff, nor with that complicated and ups and downs, the great master just recited it casually, and a fireball as big as a head appeared at her fingertips.

"The consumption of magic will not save nearly half... it will save less than one tenth at most." The middle-aged female magician looked at the fireball, as if she was a little confused, "Are you lying to me? Or is something happening here that caused the source of natural element enrichment to disappear?"

Recalling the battle to wipe out monsters that happened here before, Flinda quickly realized that the latter was most likely.

Perhaps there was indeed some treasure here before, but it was likely destroyed in the battle, or maybe it was taken away by someone else, such as His Highness Glen...

Thinking of this, Flinda shook her head in disappointment.

The treasure was gone, so she could only turn her attention to other aspects - the broken walls on the ground gradually attracted her attention.

Flinda stood in the middle of the ruins, closed her eyes, and the magic spread like a tide, and soon the entire ruin structure came to her mind. The huge building here has experienced the erosion of time and has long collapsed and rotten. In addition, a fierce battle, the original structure was further destroyed, and it is difficult for anyone to tell what it was originally, unless it happened to be someone who knew it very deeply.

Coincidentally, Flinda is one of the people who meet this criteria!

A powerful magician is often a knowledgeable wise man. A type of building in her memory gradually overlaps with the ruins structure in front of her, and she soon discovered that the two were surprisingly consistent.

"Is this..." Flinda shook her body and opened her eyes and looked around.

That's right!

The broken walls distributed in the direction of the hexagrams, the large number of sharp corners in the center, and many crystal gravel mixed in the bricks and stones... and the magic elements that were once very rich here...
