The Legendary Mage novel Chapter 306

"How fortuitous to meet you here." Alavin recognized the man as Orland from the Guild of the Earthbound Spirits!

"Haha, it is quite the coincidence! Lady Eyla? You two..." Orland glanced from Alavin to Eyla with a mischievous grin on his face.

"Do we make a good pair?" Eyla asked, leaning affectionately toward Alavin.

"A perfect match! There's no one better suited for each other than you two." Orland laughed, though a hint of wistfulness tinged his voice. Had these two dangerous individuals of the new generation of the Eight Orders really come together? A Shadowlord's Messenger and a Blood Elf.

"Don't get the wrong idea. We're just good friends."

"Hey! A man should take the initiative!" Orland actually admired Alavin. He had wanted to make his acquaintance since the championship and had regretted missing the chance.

From behind Orland, in the clearing, came several robust men. Familiar faces like Nelsor and Ziros appeared. Seeing Alavin, they were happily surprised, but after spotting Eyla, they were somewhat taken aback.

"Have you become an Advanced Mage?" Nelsor gazed at Alavin in astonishment. It had been several months since they last met, and yet Alavin had another breakthrough.

"Just recently managed to break through with a bit of luck," Alavin said with a chuckle.

A group of burly men shook their heads in disbelief. His progress was unparalleled – at the championship, he had just advanced to Stage VIII; during the championship, he reached Stage IX, and now, after a few months, he had become an Advanced Mage! His pace made these self-proclaimed geniuses blush with shame.

Ziros said heartily, "We brothers were all fired up to spar with you, but it looks like we've missed our chance."

After exchanging a few warm words with them, Alavin asked, "What brings you to Cloudveil Woods?"

"The business in Atlantis," they replied. "We just heard about it recently and regret not being able to make it in time. The Commander said Cloudveil Woods will be quite chaotic for a while, so we're here for some trials and perhaps hope to find some treasures. What about you?"
