Chapter 103 - Roommate
After filling out the materials in the guild hall, Darian took Lin Li through the corridor and out through the back door of the guild hall. Outside was a linear path with sycamore trees planted in lines on both sides; surrounding the trees were wreaths of flower beds. The songs of birds and the scent of flowers filled the whole place.
Darian did not talk much along the way; he merely took Lin Li to an old building.
“You’ll be staying here for these three months.” Darian’s face was expressionless and his tone somewhat stiff.
“Okay…” Lin Li did not say anything, but looked around—the environment was pretty nice; it was much better than the Emerald Tower.
They went into the empty hall and all the way up the stairs to the second floor until they came before an unlatched door, where Darian stopped. He took out a bunch of keys from his pocket, and after going through them, he picked one out and handed it to Lin Li. “This is the key to the room.”
Lin Li nodded, but suddenly remembered something. “By the way, Mr Darian, does my companion also stay here?”
“No.” The middle-aged mage shook his head impassively. “Only mages who are participating in the trial can stay here. As for your companion, the guild will arrange another place for him.”
“Oh, right… And then…” Mason remembered the matter at hand and quickly put away his smile before continuing, “According to Uncle Morris, in order to ensure everyone’s safety, there will be an Archmage assigned to follow each team. The Archmage will not participate in the trial mission, remaining passive except when we are in real danger, but… If he does interfere, it would mean that the team has failed their mission.”
