Wizard: Starting fro Chapter 185: The Rost Clan’s Invitation

Chapter 185: Chapter 185: The Rost Clan’s Invitation

For a force like the Giant Rock Comrce Association, their goal is to absorb many excellent alchemists and potion masters under their wing.

As long as one of these people can develop an extrely excellent magic potion or an alchemical creation, the Giant Rock Comrce Association can quickly sell these things through its vast channels to gain substantial profits.

Duke’s information had long been reported by Harrison, and the abilities he demonstrated were extrely outstanding, being able to improve various magic potions even during the Wizard Apprentice stage, which is truly not easy.

More importantly, Duke doesn’t have any background to rely on, only having done so odd jobs for Hela. He has basically walked this path on his own, and in the eyes of the Giant Rock Comrce Association, he is very promising.

Duke did not refuse the invitation from the Giant Rock Comrce Association. After carefully reviewing the contract brought by Harrison, he signed it.

What Duke needs to do is to prioritize selling any new research results to the Giant Rock Comrce Association in the future.

This is not actually a mandatory requirent; it still depends on Duke’s own wishes.

However, generally speaking, since you are already involved with the Giant Rock Comrce Association, it is rare that you would sell to other forces.

With the Giant Rock Comrce Association as a channel, things will be much easier for Duke in the future.

After signing the contract with Duke, Harrison also completed his task here, feeling much better.

"So what is the personal matter?" Duke asked.

Harrison smiled a bit awkwardly and said, "This matter is actually a bit forced on . I co from the Rost Clan, which is an ancient wizard clan with demigod-level powerhouses."

"This ti, I am also entrusted by the family to invite you to join our Rost Clan. You can freely choose any girl in the clan, and even marry multiple girls from the Rost Clan..."

It was only after hearing Harrison’s explanation that Duke understood that he was being invited to beco a son-in-law of the Rost Clan.

The conditions offered by the Rost Clan were actually quite generous, providing Duke with all the resources he needed for cultivation.

Even if Duke were to cultivate to the demigod level, the Rost Clan would exhaust all their resources to support him.

All the girls in the Rost Clan could be potential marriage partners for Duke. As long as Duke was excellent enough, all the unmarried won in the Rost Clan could be chosen by him.

However, this strong support cos with the condition that Duke becos a mber of the Rost Clan, and his surna would have to be changed to Rost.

Duke, being of common birth and without his own surna, would beco a son-in-law if he joined the Rost Clan.

Moreover, joining requires signing a strict contract, which once signed, cannot be revoked, and he would beco a permanent mber of the Rost Clan.

Wizard clans like the Rost Clan are very common throughout the wizard plane, and their power is not considered very strong, so they can only attract promising wizards through such ans.

There are many young wizards like Duke in the Rost Clan, generally lacking background, seemingly with so potential, to whom the Rost Clan would extend an olive branch.

As long as these young wizards agree to join, the Rost Clan would heavily cultivate them.

If these wizards can demonstrate good potential and value, the Rost Clan will continue to make significant investnts and provide more resources.

But if they perform poorly, they will gradually be marginalized by the Rost Clan, and not much resources will be provided.

The Rost Clan would not waste resources on wizards who have no value.

At this point, even if these wizards want to withdraw, there’s no way out, having signed the contract; they are entirely mbers of the Rost Clan.

The Rost Clan would arrange for those wizards without much potential to do odds and ends, engaging in various aspects of the family business, without providing much resource for their cultivation.

These are things Harrison naturally wouldn’t say, but Duke was well aware, having arrived at the West Coast for so long, he had so understanding of these things.

Duke had often heard gossip about the wizard clans; the relationships within these wizard clans were quite chaotic, with various news constantly erging.

He naturally would not agree to Harrison’s invitation, not because of a lack of confidence in himself, but because he did not wish to be constrained.

The conditions provided by the Rost Clan seed quite good, but the constraints were too strong.

Duke would never be tempted by those lures to be under such constraints; freedom is more important than anything.

Harrison wasn’t disappointed to hear Duke’s refusal. He actually never expected Duke to agree.

In fact, he did not want to be the spokesperson for the clan; it was only because of pressure from the family elders that he had to co.

Harrison knew that excellent young wizards like Duke surely wouldn’t focus on a re Rost Clan.

And based on his previous interactions with Duke, his understanding of Duke also told him that Duke would definitely not join the Rost Clan.

Harrison hadn’t reported anything about Duke to the clan; it was completely through the Rost Clan’s connections that they learned about Duke.

After the Rost Clan did so research on Duke and valued his potential, realizing that Harrison had contacted Duke in the past, they sent Harrison to take care of the matter.

At this mont, hearing Duke’s direct refusal, Harrison also felt relieved, having finally completed his task and having an explanation to offer when he returned.

He was from the Rost Clan and naturally understood the family’s situation; he didn’t want Duke stepping into this quagmire.

Such wizard clans with long histories are like stagnant water; even a genius would be reduced to diocrity due to all sorts of ssy situations.

...

After sending Harrison away, Duke also sent a ssage to the Black Sail Badge, informing them of his intention to return to the Beastman Plane.

He currently belongs to the Third Legion, Fifth Squadron, and the arrangents were made for him quickly.

Duke stood by the deserted island, watching as a dark demon rowed a boat towards him. After boarding, he progressed forward and arrived once more in front of the Elizabeth.

This ship, like a continent, always remained here, unmoved.

A space airship had already docked here, with over a hundred official wizards, wizard apprentices, and others besides Duke.

These individuals were either going to work at the Space Fortress, or, like Duke, heading to the Beastman Plane to participate in the war, with others responsible for transporting materials.

Duke learned from rrick that to go to the Beastman Plane, one had to hurry, as the war was reportedly nearing its end.

The green-skinned orcs, although gathering forces on the Greenfield Continent, faced increased offensive strength from the Black Sail side, utilizing more weapons.
