Chapter 63 - Farewell (1/2)

Walking over were Heath’s fellow Apprentices, Ender, Jessica, Jenny, and others.
There were many empty seats in the classroom at the moment, and the seats were even better. However, the few of them still went straight to the cramped corner where Heath was.
Ender sat down at the side, put his arm around Heath’s shoulder, and teased, “You bastard, we thought you were going to die on the battlefield. We didn’t expect you to create a legend!”
Jessica smiled. “Great hero, welcome back.”
“Long time no see, Heath.”
“It’s incredible. Can you tell us about the battlefield?”
“How did you do it? Do you know military commands?”
.
Everyone greeted Heath with envious and admiring smiles. They were asking questions like curious babies.
Seeing this, Heath could only put away his book and deal with it.
“…Have you forgotten? Before I became a Wizard, I was still a Knight. How to lead soldiers in battle is a compulsory course for Knights…”
“…It’s mainly due to my good luck. I’m very lucky…”
Heath was not a proud person. Most of the time, he was alone because he had too many secrets and needed to hide them.
If other people took the initiative to approach him, he would naturally not reject them. He still needed to participate in normal social activities. Even Wizards could not have few friends, right?
Seeing this scene, the surrounding Apprentices could not help but envy Ender and the others.
After all, having such a dazzling and genius-like friend was a dream for anyone.
It was definitely something that could be flaunted to others with an opening line like ‘I have a friend…’ no matter where they went.
After everyone chatted for a short while, a shout suddenly came from the classroom door:
“The Wizard is here!”
The Apprentices returned to silence one after another. Heath and the others also made an agreement to drink afternoon tea together and stopped chatting.
Da da da…
Not long after, the sound of footsteps could be heard.
Then, a figure walked into the classroom.
She had a big aquiline nose, a hunchbacked figure, a pointy top hat, and haggard gray hair. She was Witch Cassandra who had passed down the inheritance for everyone when they first entered the Tower.
The girl from before was still following beside her.
Cassandra came to the podium and said casually, “Good morning, Apprentices.”
Everyone bowed. “Good morning, Wizard.”
Cassandra nodded, then glanced around the hall, and suddenly asked, “I heard that there is an Apprentice named Heath here, right? Stand up, stand up for me to see.”
Her tone was slow and long-winded, which was very consistent with her old hag image.
The Apprentices’ eyes immediately focused on Heath who was in the corner. Their expressions were filled with envy and jealousy.
Under everyone’s gaze, Heath stood up.
He bowed in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. “Witch Cassandra.”
After seeing Heath, Cassandra smiled, revealing a missing front tooth. “I remember you, child. Your 1.6 innate spiritual power left a very deep impression on me. Long time no see.”
Heath said, “Thank you. Long time no see.”
The Wizards were all very busy. This was the second time Heath had seen this old Witch since the test when he first joined the Tower.
Cassandra continued, “Recently, everyone has been talking about you, child, including several Wizards.”
“They are all saying that the Shadow Tower has produced a genius who is both civil and military. He has been in the tower for less than a year and already has the strength of a low-level Apprentice. He can even lead an army on the battlefield and beat the enemies until they pissed their pants.”
