Chapter 417: Catherine’s Floating-Space City (II)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

While everyone outside the city was celebrating Catherine’s birthday and celebrating her becoming a Level Eight Mythical Wizard who owned her own Floating-Space City, Catherine sat alone at the top of the tower. The stairway from the circular ring to the gate looked like a spiral that never ended while she sat at the top of it.

It was a place that belonged only to her, as no one else could enter and she didn’t allow anyone to enter. The only living life form was Pyros, the sphinx, who was dozing off while guarding the door.

Pyros was the nth generation of Pyros, passed down from generation to generation, and it accompanied Catherine, who would never reach the end of her life.

Catherine had no idea how long it had been since she celebrated a birthday, until that moment, when she suddenly remembered that she’d had a birthday; 4,000 years ago on that exact date, she had been born in a small town in the Mara Kingdom, and she was the daughter of a court pianist.

One day, she had received a letter from a wind raven. She had quietly set foot on the route to the Wizard Tower, then spent half of her childhood there, the whole of her youth, waiting for the old age that never came.

The entire Wizard City beneath the tower was hosting a happy festival for her, but she couldn’t feel the joy. However, the sound of the joyous occasion reminded her of her last birthday.

“La-la! La-la! La-la-la!

“La-la-la!”

She looked out of the window and saw the blue sky decorated with white clouds. She hummed an unknown melody, a song that should’ve been a happy tune to celebrate her birthday, but in her humming, it had become a little too gentle and lengthy. There was a tinge of sadness in the tune.

In the past, when she had been in the tower’s castle, dressed in a gray apprentice robe, with a crown made of paper, she had been surrounded by more than 40 classmates of the same batch, each of them holding onto a candle while they sang, surrounding her, who was like a princess in the center.

Several figures were flickering in her eyes, their appearances fleeting across her mind. There were males and females, familiar and unfamiliar, and there were images that were clear, while some had long sunk into the depths of her memory.

“Uh! Ha! Uh! Ha! La-la-la-la!

“There’ll be a day… when we reunite!”

At the end of her humming, Catherine closed her eyes involuntarily, shook her head gently along with the rhythm, and sang the last sentence, then fell completely into silence.

After a long time, she stood up. The time was almost up, and everyone was waiting for her for the final lift-off of the Floating-Space City ceremony. It was meant to complete her final takeover of the authority of the Floating-Space City.

Just when she stood up, she suddenly saw a huge telescope used to observe Astral World near the window; the telescope was an old model, one that had long been eliminated.

The telescope was really old and broken, even though it had been made from alchemy. After all, it wasn’t an item made from magic, it was broken, rusty and beyond repair. Although the layout in the room had been changed several times, that telescope hadn’t been moved.

She remembered how her teacher had made an appearance in front of the telescope. He had taught her how to observe the phenomenons of the Astral World, and then he had given her the last lesson. Then, when she became a Mythical Wizard, he made his appearance there too, and he even let Cook Bay gave her a Floating-Space Tower.

Just then, Catherine looked back and suddenly saw the telescope. It was as though she had seen her teacher’s shadow. He was wearing a white robe, his long black hair was tied at the back of his head, and he had a faint smile while looking at her.

Catherine’s face flashed with a beaming smile. “Teacher! You’re here!”

Just as she spoke, the wind gushed through the window, and the shadow in the breeze dissipated into starlight.

Catherine’s gaze instantly sunk into loneliness. She sighed, turned away, transformed into a mythical light, and disappeared from the top of the Wizard Tower.

————————————————-

The mythical light of the entire Wizard City converged towards the end, bolted up to the top of the Wizard Tower, and transformed into a colorful ribbon that wrapped around the tower’s peak. The whole Wizard Tower was shrouded in the brilliance of the mythical light.

The light and shadow of the last Forest Fairy stood out from the Wizard Tower and gradually transformed into a giant goddess of light and shadow that then enveloped the entire Wizard City.

The mythical power of a Level Eight Forest Fairy integrated into the entire Wizard City, connected to various Floating-Space Towers, assimilated, and controlled the entire city. The huge Wizard City was like the base of the Floating-Space Towers and also the pedestal of the Floating-Space City.

All living things started to flourish, flowers and grass grew, and several special Hallucination Fairies were born from the flowers. Several vines and Ancient Trees of Fairies were born in the city, while flower petals from the sky continued to fall and filled up the whole land, then regrew on the land. The power of vitality filled the entire sky.

The mythical boundary around the Wizard City began to change; it gradually became a Mythical Kingdom that belonged to a Level Eight Mythical Wizard, the divine brilliance condensing into a huge flower bud towards the center of the region. It grew from the surroundings of the Wizard City and gradually sealed up the entire Wizard City. Everything in the city was taken over by Catherine; the air, temperature, humidity and life cycle system were all set by Catherine.

As long as they had a magic machine and the power of a Level Eight Mythical Wizard, they would have a constant stream of force to support the existence of the Floating-Space City.

The Wizard City was like a country that grew within a flower, and a Mythical Kingdom condensed into a giant flower had enveloped the Wizard City so that everything had floated into the sky from the earth.

The great energy from the magic machine connected with several Floating-Space Towers and radiated the power from the Heaven’s Ring; the silver halo projected in the sky. If one looked from the sky, the whole plain could be seen floating up in the sky little by a little.

The base of the Floating-Space City had long been built from a special material that looked like metal and wood. There was an eternal symbol at the bottom that represented the Wizard Tower.

The masters of all the Floating-Space Towers had exhausted all their power to support the Floating-Space City of the wizards. They had tried to maintain the structure of the entire Floating-Space City. To avoid any accidents, they had fully integrated it to Catherine’s power, so she was now the master of the tower. It had become part of the power of Catherine, the Mythical Wizard.

Millions of people in the city were cheering as they watched the changes of the entire Wizard City; they were delighted and thrilled.

“Only a wizard, only a wizard could accomplish such a magnificent feat!”

“The power of wizards is omnipotent, and the eternal wizards will become the greatest beings of the entire world, the best among the Astral World and the entire Crystal Wall System!”

“Congratulations to us! This will be our first step into the future—a Floating-Space City that belongs to the Wizard Tower and the master of the tower, Catherine.”

The huge city of the sky was encased in an illusory boundary of a flower. It was moving a little by a little into the bitwall, moving farther and farther away, and finally, they would reach somewhere beyond the world, to the established orbit, and revolve around the Starsoul World.

In the future, it would become an important basis for wizards to explore the entire Astral World. The huge and magnificent Floating-Space City would shuttle across the entire Astral World to explore and unravel its various mysteries.
