Chapter 1041 The Princess' Gift

Chapter 1041 The Princess' Gift
After ordering Ta Ling to close the alchemy laboratory, Xia Duo left here temporarily, and then continued to repair the magic net in the ruins of Mysuo.

Two days later, news came from Sevingdon that Schom had become Netheril's first Grand Arcanist in decades, and succeeded the princess as the new master of the Tower of Giles.

This news was delivered by the Severton Council through the public channels of the Austrian Law Federation. Privately, Xia Duo also received more and more detailed inside information——

Some high-ranking mages who were acquainted with the Seven Towers told him that a beam of light suddenly appeared from the sky not long ago in Nether Palace, after which Chaos announced his withdrawal from the competition with Schom.

In the communications of Master Byron, Greta, Auron, Brendes and others, it was clearly mentioned that the princess descended in the palace of Nether, and then the seven towers unanimously supported Schom's supremacy.

As for Chaos' withdrawal, that's completely a matter of aftermath.

In addition, Greta also mentioned that in the future, the Nether Palace will be changed into the temple of the god of development and protection, and since the princess has no heirs, after she ascends to the gods, all the territory and property of the Nether family will be handed over to seven Tower hosting.

However, the princess gave Nya a small island in the Narrow Sea. If Nya is willing to accept it, she can go to the Severton Council for relevant registration.

When receiving these news, Xia Duo was having dinner with Niya in Linshui Village, and the two happened to talk about their guesses about Severton's recent situation, but they didn't want the real news to come by such a coincidence.

"I saw that Her Highness the Princess really cares about you! I have become a god, and I still don't forget to leave you a gift!"

In Xia Duo's view, this gift is not just as simple as a small island, but also a halo, a care, which means someone is covering it.

Similarly, he was also very shocked that the princess was able to lower the avatar. Although he didn't know how much the avatar could do, it also meant that the gods' intervention in the mortal world might not be as difficult as he thought.

Maybe it just depends on their mood.

Of course, it is also possible that the princess was raised to a god by a mortal, so she misses the mortal world so much, but even if it is just like this, if a few more mortals ascend to the gods in the future, then this world will be too "lively"!

After lunch, Niya told Xia Duo, "I'm going to Severton to meet the teacher. Maybe this is the last time we can see each other!"

"it is good."

This time, Xia Duo didn't object, everything was settled, Chaos was already out, and there was no point in objecting any more, and he also wanted to go to Severton himself!
So he said, "I'll go with you. I left in a hurry last time, and there were still many things I didn't have time to do. This time, we just solved it together!"

Upon hearing this, the expression on Niya's face suddenly relaxed a lot, obviously she was still a little worried that Xia Duo would stop her again.

After returning to the Tower of Time, the two tidied up briefly, and then set foot on the teleportation circle to the Arcane Federation.

……

Sevington, Offa Square.

Xia Duo separated from Niya after coming out of the headquarters of the Austrian Law Federation. Niya was going to meet the princess at Nether Palace in the old city, while he was going to take a look around Severton first.

Now that the princess has become a god, her identity is quite different from before. If Xia Duo received an invitation or summons in advance, he would follow.

But not now, so there's no need for him to come over.

At present, although there are visions of the princess descending the avatar, it has not been made public after all. It may not be a good thing for him to see her like this.

It's better to concentrate on doing your own thing.

When he came to the port area, Xia Duo found a small tavern at random. Hearing it from the outside, it looked lively inside, but when he stepped in with half a foot, the inside became quiet almost instantly.

Xia Duo didn't understand why at first, but when he saw a few spellcaster-like people looking over his head in awe, he suddenly understood.

It turned out that Ain Stone did the trick!
Of course, it's not that the Ain Stone is not good, but - even in Severton, only people with the level of an archmage or above are eligible to obtain the Ain Stone.

Although the method of making the Ion Stone is not a secret, the threshold for making the threshold and even the threshold for using it is there.

Even if ordinary high-ranking mages got a certain Ion Stone and could use it, they would not be willing to put it on their heads so ostentatiously.

Generally, the person with the Ion Stone on his head is either a confident second-generation strongman, or the strong man himself. The appearance of such a person in a tavern at the port means trouble.

Thinking about this, Xia Duo didn't quit, he came here, so he had to inquire about something useful.

So, he came to the counter under the nervous, awe-inspiring and prying eyes of the people in the room, but before he could ask, the bartender behind the counter spoke first:
"Respected Lord Xiaduo, welcome to the drunkard's home."

"Oh? You recognize me?" Xia Duo asked curiously.

At this time, he also heard someone whispering his name behind him, as if bragging to his companions, and the bartender behind the counter replied respectfully:

"A month ago, I saw you from a distance during the New Year's celebration. I didn't expect you to appear here today."

"Just wandering around, just happened to come here."

Xia Duo didn't explain too much on this issue, but got straight to the point: "Let me ask you, are there any bards who are good at creating in Severton recently?"

"A bard who is good at creating?"

The bartender lowered his head slightly, as if pondering, Xia Duo didn't urge him, but waited patiently. The next moment, the bartender suddenly raised his head and said with certainty:
"Yes, my lord, there is a bard who calls himself 'Wild Poetry' and is very good at composing. Currently, the most sung "Epic of Zilean" in various taverns in Sewington is his creation, and he happened to be in Sewington recently. Winton!"

"The Epic of Zilan?" Xia Duo was sure that this was the first time he had heard the name, so he asked again, "Is it a story about the history of the Zilan Tower?"

"No, my lord, this is actually a legendary story about the great arcanists of Zilan Tower."

Speaking of which, the bartender's face suddenly became weird, and his voice was lowered a lot, and he said meaningfully:

"My lord, the guy 'Wild Poetry' is very good at writing, but compared to other bards, his stories are full of pink flavor."

Xia Duo immediately understood that the so-called "Wild Poetry" turned out to be a person who wrote pornography, but he didn't care, as long as the other party really had creative talent, he could always guide the other party to the right path.

Then, he asked about other people, and the bartender also gave a few well-known candidates who were in Sevington.

Finally, Xia Duo asked about Muyan, a "clan" from Karatu, but he hadn't heard about him for some days.

The bartender deserves to be a bartender, even if it's just a tavern in the port area, the news is very well-informed:
"My lord, are you talking about the Muyan master who once performed in the Cormanthor court?"

"Yes, that's him. Do you know any news about him?"
