398 Ten Years Later, The End
Ten years later, there was no more Gale Wind Island.
At this mont, the Holy Light City was especially lively.
At the city gate, more than 20 Great Magi and several Great Archmagi t here. Soon, they started chatting happily.
“Hey! Walter, why are you here too?”
“Joey, we et again. What a coincidence!”
The two top Great Magi were chatting with others when they suddenly saw the fellow cultivator they had always encountered along the way. They imdiately left the group and greeted each other.
The flaxen-haired young man nad Joey smiled. He also thought that it was a coincidence. They had already bumped into each other in three or four places in a row. If he had known earlier, he would have tead up with him and traveled together back then, but it was not too late now.
“Haha, what a coincidence. I haven’t asked you about your next destination… I might run into you again this ti.”
Walter scratched his head and said awkwardly, “I haven’t decided on my next destination yet. I’m just here to see the Nicholas family, which is rumored to be stronger than the few large factions. I heard that they are still recruiting, so I wanted to co and take a look.”
Upon hearing this, Joey patted Walter’s shoulder hard, his face full of excitent. “ too!”
“Huh?” Walter was a little stunned.
“The Nicholas family! I’m also here to join the Nicholas family!” Joey was very excited.
Upon hearing the na “Nicholas family”, those who were queuing and those who were registering at the door beca excited. Even those ordinary people who did not cultivate magical power interrupted.
“I’m familiar with the Nicholas family! There is a small matter every three days, and a big matter every seven days!”
“And they are powerful and low-key! I think the four young masters of the Nicholas family are the strongest!” “The two heroes are the strongest!” “No…”
“It’s the family clan that destroyed the Beast Sect and the Gale Wind Island ten years ago! I heard that they have a Heavenly Divine Mage!”
“Heavenly Divine Mage!!”
“I wouldn’t even dare to dream of it… Is there really a Heavenly Divine Mage? That’s false, right? Didn’t they say that there are no more Heavenly Divine Magi in the world?”
“I don’t know. Ten years ago, soone had indeed sensed the aura of a Heavenly Divine Mage outside the battlefield of the Magic Stone Mine…”
As they spoke, the Mage who had entered the city ahead of Joey and Walter disappeared. Joey pulled Walter over and walked excitedly into Holy Light City.
In fact, Magi generally did not need to queue to enter the city. Apart from the lowest-level Magi, the other Magi could basically use their own thods to fly for short or long periods of ti. However, the Holy Light City was different.
To be precise, the Holy Light City that had the Nicholas family was different.
After the destruction of the Gale Wind Island, the Nicholas family clan beca a top faction recognized by everyone in the country.
Until now, in the eyes of so, the Nicholas family was famous in the entire Sebastian Kingdom and even the entire Magic Martial Continent.
This powerful family clan, which had risen rapidly, had an unfathomable background. As it was suspected to have a Heavenly Divine Mage, it was regarded as a distinguished guest by the various large factions of the Magic Martial Continent. No one dared to underestimate it. As for those who were blind, they had already died because the Nicholas family had kept their word to kill them.
The Nicholas family was not only powerful, the retainers who had submitted to them had also advanced extrely quickly!
Currently, the tenfold cultivation speed of retainers had increased to twentyfold!!
Those who had submitted to the Nicholas family in the early years, even if they were Great Magi, had all beco Great Archmagi now! Moreover, they might even advance and beco a Divine Mage!
The retainers were already so powerful, let alone the mbers of the Nicholas family. Cultivation was like drinking water. It was said that they had even deliberately suppressed their realm to prevent it from being unstable… Seriously, which other person would not be eager to break through quickly?
Yet, the Nicholas family would not!
This family clan was low-key and powerful. Until now, there were already 40 Divine Magi!!
It had to be known that apart from the other top faction, the Divine Mountain Immortal Island, even the Earth Origin Sacred Land, which had suffered calamity in recent years, did not have so many!
Therefore, in the eyes of many, the Nicholas family clan was very impressive, especially those who had seen their family’s legacy. They could not help but sigh. In just a few decades, they had actually risen up so quickly!
It was rumored that even those from the top faction on the continent, the Divine Mountain Immortal Island, had sighed. “The Nicholas family is a miracle.”
Reverence was a creed engraved in the bones of everyone on the Magic Martial Continent.
The Nicholas family was so powerful that it naturally attracted experts from all over the world, especially the endless stream of individual Magi paying their respects.
“Walter, let’s go earlier and give it a try!” Joey smiled and then added worriedly, “It hasn’t been long, and I have seen a long line at the city gate just now. I’m afraid there will be a lot of people coming to compete with us for the retainer’s position.”
“It’s okay. Although our levels are not high, you’re good at socializing. I’m good at drawing talismans. We should be able to get the job.”
Walter patted the other party’s shoulder and tried to comfort Joey. “After all, their family does not believe in strength alone. The probability of those with special skills being selected is quite high.”
Upon hearing this, Joey felt a little comforted. “Indeed, the Nicholas family clan is large and powerful. Coupled with my managent experience, I shouldn’t be eliminated.”
After another ten years of low-key developnt, the current Nicholas family had countless businesses. If they really had to rely on the nearly 200 clansn to manage them, they would be exhausted. Moreover, the clansn still had to cultivate magical power. How could they manage everything?
As they were expanding rapidly, the Nicholas family was short of manpower.
However, no matter how the recruitnt criteria for retainers changed, there was still the “good character” section. It was still adhered to in the adhoc recruitnt assessnt.
Joey and Walter chatted for a while more, and then they encountered the large group of people who had gone to the Nicholas family to seek refuge. As there were too many people seeking refuge, and they really needed manpower, the retainer assessnt was restored to once a day.
They followed the group up the main path of the Nicholas family palace and soon arrived at the door of the palace.
For so reason, the palace suddenly beca noisy.
“Look! The Nicholas family has appeared!!”
“It’s Dick and Ron! The two heroes of the Nicholas family! And Formick, Anthony, and Arka!”
“Eh, why haven’t I seen Durga? He has gone to join the army and is now the first twenty-year-old general in the Sebastian Kingdom! He’s amazing!”
“What about the others? Anthony has beco the Chief Disciple of the Sky Fortune Academy… Formick is a top-notch poison cultivator… And Arka, he was the one who wrote the Nicholas family autobiography that everyone has read!”
“Is this what it ans to be young and promising? I’m impressed!”
“I heard that the Nicholas family clan has as many Divine Magi as the clouds. Is that true?”
“I don’t know. Currently, there are more than 20 to 30 Divine Magi retainers known to outsiders. There are probably even more in the family!”
“Damn! So powerful!”
“Is their family clan still short of people? I’m going to cozy up to soone powerful! Stop squeezing! We still have to participate in the retainer assessnt! Quick, make way! I’m going too!”
Such a huge commotion naturally attracted many onlookers or idlers.
“Aiya, the Nicholas family has been besieged again! It’s fine, it’ll be over in a while… What is it this ti?”
“The two heroes and the four young masters have appeared. Damn! Why didn’t you say so earlier? I’ll go and take a look too!!”
A passerby stopped in his tracks. “Look at all of them. They’re all so handso. Have they been engaged? If they have not, I still have…”
“Don’t even think about it. The Nicholas family mbers are either engaged or don’t want to get married at all!”
“Who’s engaged?” “Are you an outsider? Dick! With our country’s Ninth Princess, Norlis!” “Why am I seeing Ron holding a baby in his arms?” “Oh, that’s his daughter…”
“Let’s not talk about the young ones. Are there any single middle-aged or old people in this family? I might be able to go and give it a try…” “Fat hope!”
“Speaking of which, the Nicholas family seems to have a new face recently…”
“Are you talking about the middle-aged couple?” “Yes!” “Co here, let tell you quietly. Don’t tell anyone. I heard from my nephew when he was drunk that they seed to be the old ancestors of the Nicholas family!” “Impossible!”
“Tsk! Believe it or not.”
“Wait, from what you’re saying, their family mbers either left singlehood or chose to be single?”
“Yes, such as Sword Deity Lily. She has many suitors!”
“Damn! Comparisons are exasperating!”
“One will fall short of the best, but be better off than the worst. One has to face this calmly…”
