Immortal Mage: I Just Have To Wait It Out - Chapter 29

Chapter 29: How Is Windsor?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the usually bustling Maple Forest City, the shops on both sides of the street and various buildings were hung with white curtains. The passers-by lowered their heads and almost no one communicated.

All of this stemmed from the death of the Monarch of the Red Moon Empire, Noxia.

Ever since the Red Moon Empire destroyed the Frost Snow Empire, the Empire’s power had reached an unprecedented level. Monarch Noxia’s reputation had also increased.

This was especially so after Monarch Noxia issued a series of policies for the people. Many people really felt that their lives had improved.

The capital closest to the Monarch was immersed in a sorrowful atmosphere.

In the palace, the newly appointed Monarch was dressed in white. His expression was solemn as he watched the ritual proceed normally.

The luxurious coffin wrapped around Noxia and was carried out by 16 armored soldiers.

Behind them were Goethe and a group of people. Their eyes were filled with sorrow and their expressions were sorrowful.

In the empty air, Ye Tian retracted his gaze and left with Annie.

After getting to know each other, Ye Tian specially came to take a look today.

“There are a total of eleven Monarchs in the Red Moon Empire to date. In my impression, His Majesty Noxia’s performance can be ranked in the top three.”

Looking at the departing procession, Annie felt a little emotional.

People would eventually grow old, even mages.

But… Ye Tian hasn’t changed at all after so many years. Did she really have a chance to be by his side forever?

Sensing Annie’s gaze, Ye Tian glanced at her and said calmly, “Who can guarantee what will happen in the future? Perhaps there will be even more outstanding Monarchs in the future. When the time comes, the lives of the people will be better.”

After a pause, he scratched the bridge of Annie’s nose and smiled gently.

“You don’t have to care so much now. Cultivating magic is the most important thing.”

After all, only those who were stronger could live longer…

Ye Tian muttered the second half of the sentence in his heart. He could tell from Annie’s words that she was emotional.

However, time was the most ruthless thing in the world. With his current strength, he did not have the ability to interfere.

…

The new Monarch had met Ye Tian once before. When he was very young, Ye Tian returned from dealing with the Frost Snow Empire’s mages.

He had always remembered his father Noxia’s instructions before he died. After dealing with his father’s funeral, he immediately came to visit Ye Tian.

This time, he did not mention anything about becoming Ye Tian’s disciple or asking Ye Tian to take in his child.

After a few attempts by Noxia, they knew that Ye Tian did not have much desire to take in a disciple.

Therefore, he only paid a visit to Ye Tian and asked if he was lacking anything recently.

Ye Tian naturally did not have any needs. After all, if he really lacked something, he believed that not many people in the world could stop him.

Therefore, the conversation this time was quite harmonious.

After the new Monarch walked out of Ye Tian’s residence, he could not help but look shocked and envious.

The appearance of Mage Ye Tian did not change at all after these years. How magical. Was this immortality?

“Ye Tian, are we leaving Maple Forest City?”

After the new Monarch left, Annie came out of the door that led to the backyard.

“Leave? Why?”

Ye Tian did not react.

Annie walked up to Ye Tian.

“Aren’t you willing to stay in Maple Forest City because of your friendship with His Majesty Noxia?”

From what Annie knew, Ye Tian was willing to go to the front line because he was invited by Noxia’s sister. After he returned victorious, Noxia rewarded him with a large amount of gold, silver, and status.

Therefore, Ye Tian stayed in Maple Forest City because of this. Even if he left for a few years, it was only because he needed to break through.

Ye Tian chuckled and ruffled Annie’s hair.

“How can you be so sure it’s not because of you?”

Annie was stunned. Her face slowly turned red. She whispered,

“You’re lying. Why are you doing this because of me?”

Ye Tian spread his hands.

“If you don’t believe me, I have no other choice.”

Ye Tian’s current state was displayed on the interface.

He couldn’t help but sigh.

It had been 20 years since Noxia passed away. He hadn’t gone anywhere but stayed in Maple Forest City with Annie.

Their identities had changed a long time ago. During this period, Annie had always wanted a child. Ye Tian had actively cooperated, but they had never succeeded.

‘In another 50 years, no, 30 years, I will be able to break through to the Great Magister realm.’

‘Now, I’ve vaguely touched the boundaries of this world. According to my current situation, I estimate the strength of the two people who came to take Windsor as their disciple.’

One should be a Great Magister, while the other should be a Magister.

However, their strength would be suppressed when they came down from the Upper Realm. This was probably not their full strength.

Sigh… He wondered if Windsor had been doing well all these years. He had promised to look for her, but who would have thought that it would take so long?

Ye Tian’s thoughts wandered for a moment before he retracted them. A well-rounded figure appeared in his vision.

Annie was dressed like a noblewoman. She was very beautiful, but she was also especially dignified. She was the kind of woman who could attract men’s attention. If one looked closely, one would notice the faint wrinkles in her eyes.

When Annie sat on Ye Tian, Ye Tian frowned slightly.

“It seems that your strength has not improved for three years.”

Annie was silent for two seconds before nodding.

“I clearly didn’t slack off in my cultivation at all. I don’t know what’s going on either. It’s as if the magic power in this world has become thinner.”

Without the enhancement of magic power, even though Annie was now a nine-star Great Mage, it was difficult for her to escape the traces left behind by time.

Ye Tian tightened his grip on Annie and said in a firm and low voice, “Don’t forget your homework every day. Leave the rest to me. I’ll find out the reason.”

…

Far away from Rock Town, on the peak of a mountain, a crack suddenly opened in the void and a figure walked out.

This person looked a little old. His hair and beard were already white, but he was energetic. His eyes were bright as if they could shoot out lightning.

He stood in the air, and a large amount of magic power surged around him, supporting him to quickly drift to the nearest city.

A soldier guarding the city looked up and realized that before he could make an alarm, his eyes dimmed.

“Have you heard of Ye Tian?”

Ricks’ voice was low and carried some kind of magic power, making people want to trust him unconditionally.

“I know. He’s our noble mage, our savior.”

The soldier answered honestly.

“Then where is he?” Ricks asked coldly.
