Bab 478: The Arm of the Immortal King

"Hey, look at that." Yeric suddenly stopped in his tracks. He gestured to Waldo with his elbow.

Waldo looked in the direction Yeric was signaling him to. He saw a plump mage teaching a youth mage apprentice in one of the empty fields in the campsite. The scene was hilarious to both men. They could not believe a man in his 20s would still be a mage apprentice. They thought it had to be either the young man's lack of potential or the failure of that plump mage.

The fatso in the campsite of the Tower of Dusk would naturally be Gerian. Meanwhile, the youth mage apprentice who had been terribly reprimanded was Garso, the son of Old Salatt.

Despite all the lashings Gerian gave his student, it was a fact that he really treasured Garso. This was not only due to Gerian's relationship with Old Salatt, but also his recognition of the bit of potential Garso had for learning magic.
