Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 40

Chapter 40 Differential Treatment

Duke subconsciously didn’t want others to know that Thor, who had a conflict with him, was reused by Teacher Kaz.

“Then don’t worry, he will definitely not pass the first test. Didn’t you see how short of magic he was in the rune class? Even if such a person learns quickly, what’s the use if he can’t release witchcraft?” Doze was pouted by Thor, and his tone was not very good.

He even guessed maliciously, “According to Teacher Gudo, apprentices who cannot pass the test will definitely be punished. Maybe Thor will be sent back to be a servant in the end! Rocky, don’t you think so?”

“Ah? Yes.” Rocky replied sullenly.

“Ah?” Jenna sympathized with Thor again, “That’s a bit pitiful.”

“That’s right.” Rocky immediately added another sentence.

Seeing his friend always stealing glances at Jenna, Doze rolled his eyes in his heart.

Just as the few people were talking happily, the door of 603 opened again.

The discussion stopped immediately.

Thor came out of the dormitory, walked to the next door 604, knocked on the door, and called out Keli who was studying hard inside.

“Is there a new person in the tower?”

“Huh? Yes, what’s wrong? I thought you wouldn’t care about these things.” Keli was still holding a thick roll of parchment in her hand, looking at Thor in astonishment.

“Is there an apprentice with strong dark attribute talent among the newcomers?” Thor asked.

Keli spread her hands expressionlessly, and the parchment hit the door frame, making a dull sound. “Do you think I care about these things?”

Thor, who was choked by Keli again, couldn’t help laughing.

“I thought you would be very interested in a new genius.”

“The progress is different now, let’s talk about it when someone catches up.” Keli raised her eyebrows and looked at Thor, one hand on her chin, “You are very interested in him, do you want me to ask about him?”

“No need.”

Thor left with his arms folded, with an unfathomable look on his face, leaving Keli standing there in confusion.

“What is he doing? Is he trying to satisfy my curiosity?”

Keli pursed her lips and pondered for a moment

. She saw someone coming towards her from the corner of her eye, so she quickly retreated to her room and slammed the door shut. Duke was turned away, and the warm smile on his face turned gloomy in an instant.

There was an explosion of laughter behind him, which made him clench his fists and wish he could smash the door of the dormitory in front of him.

But now everyone knows that Keli is the treasure of Guduo’s mentor and is often taken by his side to teach.

This is a special treatment that many apprentices are eager to get.

There are rumors among the new apprentices that she will definitely be the first to become a second-level apprentice, and even soon enter the third level.

Countless people want to get closer to Keli, even if they can only get a little bit of resources from her, maybe it will be enough for them to survive the apprenticeship tests again and again.

But Keli didn’t know what was wrong with her brain, and she was only willing to stay with Thor.

All her cheerfulness and enthusiasm were only released to Thor.

Invisibly, it increased the resentment of the newcomers towards Thor.

However, those who were entangled in resentment didn’t care at all.

It was half past three in the morning.

Thor suddenly opened his eyes, the chaos dissipated like a tide, and reason took over his brain again.

The servant George sent Thor a rotation list a few days ago.

Today, it was Brown, one of West Germany’s minions, who was on duty to clean the corridor.

Thor quickly put on his clothes, took out the well-preserved Phantom Eye, and left the dormitory.

…

Brown, who was a head taller than Thor, pushed the cart shiveringly and walked on the ramp of the West Tower.

He raised his hand from time to time to tighten his collar.

The temperature in the wizard tower was not low, but the cold was everywhere.

Since that damn Thor became a damn apprentice, Brown had to take the rotation to clean the corridor again.

This is the job with the highest mortality rate among the servants. It can be as short as ten days or as long as several months. There are always people who can’t come back after leaving in the early morning.

“It’s a good thing that George licked Thor’s ass so quickly.”

George was assigned other tasks by the butler and did not participate in the early morning rotation.

Now all the male servants knew that George had clung to Sol’s thigh.

They immediately changed their faces and put George, who was originally bullied, on the platform.

George slept on the right side of the big bunk bed, replacing Brown’s position.

Brown lost his power from then on, but no one really dared to bully him.

However, he also lost his once transcendent status, and had to take on many jobs that he didn’t have to do before.

The danger was naturally high.

Fortunately, Brown was not completely without a trump card. Facing the dangerous early morning cleaning work, he was still confident that he could come back safely.

Since Sol became an apprentice, the second-level apprentice master never looked for Brown again, but he once left Brown a life-saving prop.

Brown tightened his collar again and touched the small scented bead under his collar.

It was a translucent bead strung with a black rope, the size of a thumb, and a small black insect was sealed inside like amber.

Brown didn’t know what it was, but the second-level apprentice master told him that this small scented bead could protect Brown from general weird harm.

This was also the advance payment Brown received for persecuting Sol before.

It was a pity that after Thor left, the second-level apprentice was unwilling to publicly care for Brown, let alone accept Brown as his exclusive servant.

Otherwise, who would be afraid of George?

Even the butler had to smile respectfully to him.

Although he felt regretful, Brown still happily pinched the small incense bead. With this witchcraft prop, he was not at a loss.

Brown’s pleasant sense of superiority caused by the small incense bead did not last long before it was suppressed by the weird atmosphere in the wizard tower again.

“When can I leave this damn place? If I had known that I would always be a servant, I would not… I might as well go back to the village to farm.”

Regret is just a useless emotion that can only depress his will.

Brown sighed deeply and pushed the cart forward.

He remained silent and turned the bend on the sixth floor.

Suddenly, the wheel got stuck in the gap between the stone bricks and could not be pushed no matter how hard he pushed.

“What’s going on?” Brown squatted down irritably and tried to lift the wheel.

At this moment, he suddenly saw a foot on the stone brick in front of the wheel.

A pale purple, bare, bony foot.

Then another foot that looked similar landed.

But the heel of that foot was facing Brown.

It was the opposite of the first foot.

Damn it!!!

Brown didn’t care about the car anymore. He pulled out the small scented bead hidden under his collar and raised it above his head. He closed his eyes tightly, hoping that the terror could be dispelled by the small scented bead.

There was no movement for a long time.

Brown tentatively opened his eyes a little.

The hairs on his body stood up.

There were bare feet standing all around him and the car.

Those feet were arranged one right and one wrong, and each one was different. Some belonged to adults, some to children, and some to old people.

“Huh… Huh…”

Brown’s breathing began to tremble.

The scene in front of him was very strange.

But what was more creepy than the strangeness was that Brown had seen this scene before.

When he was ten years old.

Barbarians invaded his village and gathered all the living things they could catch.

People and animals were split in half, one facing up and the other facing down, and then pierced with a wooden stake and stood in the air.

I’m pushing it today, but I caught a cold, so I feel bad
