The Wizard World (Part 1) Completed

Chapter 39: Adolf (2)

‘Unknown magnetic field?’ Angele was both surprised and excited. He heard Adolf questioning him. He was feeling elated, but he tried to stay calm.

“Master Adolf, I’m just interested in the legendary power the Wizards have and I want to get into a better school. I think my research would progress faster,” Angele quickly and honestly answered.

“Wizard?” Adolf stopped for a second and thought for a while.

“It is… very nostalgic…” He sighed with a sad look on his face. Adolf looked at Angele for a while with a face as though he had mixed feelings about the situation. Angele was nearly becoming scared.

“I think you’re honest because you’re telling the truth. Follow me.” Adolf broke the silence and slowly left the classroom. Angele followed him from behind. Outside the door, Adolf’s daughter who was wearing a tight red one piece, Sophia, was looking at Angele with mixed feelings as well. She didn’t say anything. It seemed that she didn’t overhear their conversation.

Adolf walked down the building with Angele and his daughter. Outside was a large red carriage that could easily fit three people awaiting them. The insignia looked like the Scales.

“Get on the carriage,” Adolf said while pointing at it.

“Yes, master.” Angele politely got inside the carriage.

Inside the carriage, Angele sat opposite to Adolf and Sophia. The coachman started driving the carriage, moving forward quickly. No one talked, but Angele noticed that Adolf was thinking about something. The carriage left the school and moved to the downtown area of Marua. They arrived at a block full of large houses and stopped in front of a red-white house. They had left the school at morning and by the time they had arrived, it was already noon.

Adolf still didn’t say anything as he led Angele and Sophia into the house. They went to the study on the second floor and while they did so, several workers greeted them.

“Sit down.” Adolf sat on a sofa by the desk. Angele looked around and saw two shelves full of books on the side. The book covers were all made of red leather and the words written on it were hard to read. It was highly likely that Master Adolf wrote it. On the desk was a golden oil lamp, a white quill pen, and a bottle of black ink. There was also a round silver seal above an opened letter.

“Ony, bring this young guest of mine a glass of Marconi. Also, you know what Sophia and I want,” Adolf loudly said. Sophia was sitting beside her father with a face that seemed unconcerned about Adolf’s decision. A chubby middle-aged woman brought 3 glasses of drink to them and closed the door quietly.

Angele smelled the fragrance of the drink in front of him. It looked like dark chocolate, yet it smelled like a lemon mixed with orange. It was nice and warm.

“Tell me about your decision. I mean, why are you looking for the Wizards?” Adolf asked.

“I think you know that the path to the Wizards’ world is too difficult to find, and you need perseverance for it. You can’t imagine the amount of effort you need,” he continued in a deep tone.

“Master Adolf, to be honest with you, my body isn’t capable of accepting Life Energy Seed. There’s no way for me to become a grand knight. However, I witnessed the power of a wizard, and I found it incredible. I want to find out if the wizards could help me get stronger in a different way,” Angele unhesitatingly said. He had his own plans, so he decided to tell Adolf everything he knew. It wasn’t, after all, a big secret in any case.

“You witnessed the power of a wizard? There are still wizards around here?” Adolf was taken aback and even Sophia was curiously looking at Angele.
