Chapter 34: The Legacy of the Sedda Mage

“Gao De, Gao De, Gao De.” In his drowsiness, Gao De heard a series of concerned and hurried calls.

But he didn’t have the energy to open his eyes and respond.

It was unknown how much time had passed before a warmth surged from deep within his body and quickly spread throughout Gaode, waking him up from his coma.

Gao De suddenly opened his eyes and looked around vigilantly.

A dark and cramped room.

A faint ray of light shone through the small air vent on the south wall of the room.

A very familiar scene.

A month ago, when I first came to this world, this was the first scene I saw when I opened my eyes.

Gao De instantly realized where he was.

It was his own cramped little bedroom.

“God, you finally woke up!” Amy, who was sitting at the head of the bed, was the first to notice that God woke up and came over in surprise.

Gao De just woke up and felt weak all over.

When he looked carefully, he found that his body was tied with various cloth strips. There was a burst of cool air coming from the cloth strips, which should be wrapped with some medicinal herbs.

Gao De calmed down and remembered everything that happened before he fell into a coma.

“Master Seda is dead?” he asked again to confirm.

“Yes, he’s dead!” Amy was almost crying with joy, and said excitedly: “God, you are so amazing, how did you do it?”

Godard did not answer Amy’s question, but closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

The great enemy in his mind, the sword of Damocles hanging over his head, finally disappeared.

Gao De’s mind, which had been tense for a month, finally relaxed completely.

“How long have I been unconscious this time?” He opened his eyes and looked at Amy and asked.

“One day,” Amy raised a finger and said, “After the explosion in Master Seda’s room yesterday, I bravely went to investigate the situation. I saw you lying together with Master Seda, covered in wounds. You were holding a bloody weapon in your hand, and Master Seda was already dead.”

As Amy spoke, she pointed at the wooden table beside her.

On it was placed the “murder weapon” – the Fang of Hidden Mist, which had been cleaned of blood stains.

“I will immediately carry you back to your room and use the herbs from the herb garden to bandage you simply.”

At this point, Amy thankfully said, “Master Seda is dead now. No one will bother me if I use his herbs.”

“Thank you.” Goder said to Amy seriously.

If Amy hadn’t found him in time and bandaged and treated him, he wouldn’t have woken up so quickly.

“I should be the one thanking you. You killed Master Seda. You are the savior of all of us!” Amy couldn’t help but say.

“I was also trying to save myself, saving you was just a side job.”

Goder did not acknowledge the credit, not because he was noble or hypocritical, but more because he didn’t really need Amy’s thanks.

He smiled at Amy, “Master Seda is dead, you are free.”

Hearing this, Amy was not as ecstatic as Godard had expected. Instead, she looked embarrassed, as if she wanted to say something but was too embarrassed to do so.

“Just say whatever you want to say.” Goder saw that Amy was hesitant to speak.

Amy bit her lip and shouted to the door, “God is awake.”

Following Amy’s words, the door of the room was pushed open instantly.

The remaining six apprentices in the medicine garden had been waiting outside the door, and now they all squeezed in, filling the already narrow room.

Everyone, including Amy, knelt down on one knee in front of Gode’s bed.

“What do you mean?”

Gao De and these people stared at each other in bewilderment, not understanding what was going on. Everyone looked at each other, and finally Amy, Gao De’s “roommate for many years”, came out to be the representative spokesperson.

After all, in theory he and Gaode have the closest relationship.

“Master Seda is dead, but the medicine garden is still there, and we are used to working in the medicine garden.”

Amy said seriously and sincerely, “We also understand that although we have been apprentices with Master Seda for a long time, we actually haven’t learned much. With our limited abilities, it will be difficult for us to have enough food if we leave the medicine garden.”

“We want to keep the medicine garden going.”

“Without Master Seda, it is indeed not easy to continue operating the medicine garden, but it is not impossible.”

“You killed Master Seda, and you can independently prepare the primary spider poison potion. In this case, why don’t you replace Master Seda and inherit his medicine garden? We will do our best to work for you.”

“Except for the change of owner, everything else in our medicine garden remains unchanged.” Amy said all her thoughts in one breath, and then stopped talking, nervously waiting for Goder’s reply.

The new owner of the medicine garden must firstly be able to convince the public and secondly have a certain level of attainment in alchemy, so that the medicine garden can continue to operate.

Among the less than ten apprentices in the entire medicine garden, only Gao De, who successfully “killed his master”, met these two conditions.

Caught off guard by Amy’s suggestion, Gao De couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.

To be honest, before this, he had never thought about what would happen after killing Master Seda.

For Gao De at that time, this was too ambitious and unrealistic.

But now that it’s done, he really needs to think carefully about his next arrangements.

And it must be said that although Amy and the apprentices’ proposal was beyond his expectations, it did make him excited.

If you want to grow into a powerful wizard, resources undoubtedly come first.

Learning magic costs money, practicing costs money, and food, clothing, housing and transportation cost even more money.
In short, everything depends on money.

For him now, the medicine garden is the biggest way to make money that he can control.

Under Master Seda’s management over the years, the entire business model of the medicine garden has been perfected.

As long as the medicine garden can continue to operate in the previous model, it can generate continuous income.

Gaode needs this medicine garden to earn the resources he needs for his mage practice.

The other apprentices in the medicine garden also need Gaode to ensure that the medicine garden can continue to operate according to the previous model.

Therefore, if Gao De agrees to Amy’s proposal, it will be a win-win situation for both parties.

With this in mind, there is no reason to reject this proposal.

“Okay.” Gao De nodded slightly and made a decisive decision.

“Greetings, owner of the garden.” The apprentices kneeling on the ground were immediately delighted when they heard the affirmative answer. After looking at each other, the next moment, everyone said in unison.

Amy took advantage of the situation and pulled out a box from her arms, holding it in both hands and handing it to God.

It was a box meticulously carved from an unknown wood.

The box is engraved with intricate runes and patterns symbolizing magical elements.

These patterns are obviously not just decorations, but represent magical powers.

“This is?”

“Master Seda’s room has become a ruin because of the explosion. We searched the ruins for a long time. Most of the things in the room were destroyed, only this box was still intact.”

“Whether it’s the rune patterns carved on the box or the fact that it remained intact in such a horrific explosion, it shows that this box must be an extraordinary item.”

“And the thing that Master Seda placed in this box with such importance must be what he values ​​most.”

“It’s just that no matter how hard I try, I can’t open this box.”

“You are the owner of the garden now, so apart from the medicine garden, the other relics of Master Seda should also belong to your property.” Amy looked at Gode respectfully.
