Abelle quickly ordered her deer to turn to another direction, “Sorry! Let’s go to the posters now.”
Everyone remained silent. This girl was… unreliable.
Abelle pointed to the center of the tree spirit garden and let out an “Onward!” joyfully.
They were somewhat complaining about Abelle’s bizarre behaviors but they did not point it out. Elementary Apprentices were still supernaturals to them.
However, Hookdick’s little group began to show some hostility toward Abelle.
“All the wizards have received your information. The professor posters will determine whether they would accept you. When a wizard is interested in someone, he or she will send a poster. When you take the poster, you automatically become the wizard’s apprentice,” Abelle explained.
“So every one of us has a poster?” Someone asked.
Abelle shook her head, “Nope. You won’t have one if no wizard is interested. But don’t worry, even so, you still get a tutor. But in this case, the tutor is chosen at random, so you never know where you’ll go to.”
Abelle paused for a moment before she continued, “There are some wizards who prefer doing researches alone, and they hate apprentices. It will be really bad if you’re arranged to one of those people.
“In my batch, there were 30 or so talents who didn’t get posters, and several were sent to such wizards. I heard that they were made into fertilizers for flowers and slept underground forever a few days later. So you know… you need some luck,” said Abelle.
She realized everyone was showing fear now, so she quickly added, “of course, if you are lucky, you get to study from a powerful and gentle wizard, and your path in the future will be a lot smoother.”
Soon, they reached their destination.
“This is where we distribute resources. However, this place is only for wizards. Every wizard can claim their allowance here each month. We can also acquire certain resources here, such as rare materials. If any of you have spare magic crystals, you can buy them right here,” explained Abelle.
She looked left and right. Once she made sure no one else was looking, she lowered her voice, “That said, the prices here aren’t really good. If you really need materials, try to find someone else who sells them in private. There are also shops in nearby villages that are run by apprentices, and they sell stuff a lot cheaper.”
Someone asked, “You mean the underground villages?”
Abelle nodded, “Yup. You’ll learn such tricks once you spend some time and get used to this place. Now go and check out your professor posters!”
