Dorothy served a bowl of hot soup to Elor.
"Miss Elor, who is the most powerful member of the Ryan family?"
Elor took the hot soup with one hand, not understanding why Dorothy asked the question, but she answered anyway.
"It's my grandfather, Kieran de Ryan, the previous head of the Ryan family, known as the Thunder Lion. He was a mage a long time ago, but I don't know how strong he is now. He hasn't shown up for a long time."
Dorothy nodded, then looked at Leona.
"Miss Leonse, who is the most powerful member of the Blackwood family?"
Leona's lips moved slightly as she looked at Elor and said:
"He's my uncle, and his strength is at the peak of a mage."
Snapped!
Dorothy clapped her hands.
His gaze moved back and forth between the two of them before finally settling on Leonse.
"So, Miss Leons, how long will it take you to break through to the level of a mage?"
Leonce shook her head, somewhat bewildered.
"Although I am already a high-level mage, there is still a grand mage above me, and then a magician. There are two levels below me. If nothing unexpected happens, it may take me more than twenty years to cultivate like this."
Dorothy was surprised that it would take so long, and she frowned slightly.
"It's just two levels, why is it taking so long?"
"Yes, each subsequent promotion cannot be calculated according to the normal timeline; it depends on aptitude or luck."
"Some lucky people might break through after bathing in dragon blood once, while unlucky people might be stuck at a certain stage for life."
Leonce explained patiently.
Elor asked, somewhat puzzled, "Dorothy, why are you asking these questions?"
Dorothy shrugged.
"I saw you two arguing last night, so I came up with a plan."
"Since you two care about each other and are bound by your respective families, then become powerful enough to disregard your family's orders."
To everyone's surprise, after hearing Dorothy's words, both Leona and Elor lowered their heads helplessly.
Why are you reacting like this?
Leons shook her head. "That's not how it is. Even if we're lucky enough to become stronger than mages, the honor our family brings us will always accompany us from childhood to adulthood. We can't abandon our family just for ourselves."
"Yes, abandoning the family, abandoning the glory of the ancestors, then what are all the things I've enjoyed since I was a child..." Elor shook his head.
They never considered abandoning their family.
Even though Elor had run away from home before, her sense of responsibility eventually led her back to the City of Apprentices.
Dorothy reached out and patted Elor on the shoulder.
"Don't think like that. The rules of the world are ultimately set by the strong. Just because you don't listen to the family doesn't mean you've abandoned it."
"Besides arranged marriages and producing outstanding offspring, there are other ways to give back to the family."
Dorothy said the two of them were still too young.
"As long as you are strong enough, you can help the family in many ways. For example, you can find dragon blood to give back to the family, or find ancient divine weapons in the ruins outside and bring them back."
"Even without these, once you become stronger, you'll definitely make a lot of friends who are also strong. These friends, as connections, can bring a lot of benefits to your family."
At this moment, Dorothy was like a teacher comforting a child.
They keep making grand promises and talking about the future.
Both Elor and Lyons looked on with longing.
However, Leona remained calm and did not listen to Dorothy's empty promises.
She said directly, "What you're saying, we might be able to do in the future, but what about time?"
Leonce pointed at Elor.
"She has just become a novice mage."
Then point to yourself.
"I have just become a high-level mage. My family gave me five years in the Apprentice City to complete my studies and add some value to my identity."
"Actually, my studies were already completed when I became a magician, but since it wasn't time yet, my family wasn't in a hurry."
Leonce held up three fingers.
"But at most three years. The family will definitely take us away. In three years, can we become mages?"
"Even if I become a mage, I'll only be on the same level as my uncle, at most I'll have the ability to defy him."
Elor lowered his head.
This three-year period is based on the fact that apprentices in the City of Apprentices can study for five years.
Perhaps the timeframe will be even tighter.
Dorothy stood up and stretched her body a little.
Three years? That's plenty of time.
She smiled and spoke in a relaxed tone.
I thought time was running out, but I never expected there would be three more years.
For Dorothy, that was not a problem at all.
Raising her right hand and extending her thumb, Dorothy pointed her thumb at herself.
"If you lack confidence, leave it to me. I'll become a mage in three years."
Elor grabbed Dorothy's hand directly.
"Dorothy, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Dorothy bent down slightly and held Elor's hands in her own.
"I'm serious. You've helped me a lot, and now that I know you're in trouble, I naturally want to lend you a hand. Besides, this isn't difficult for me."
Elor looked at Dorothy, unsure if she was exaggerating.
Dorothy turned to look at Leonce.
There was a hint of confusion in the other person's eyes.
"It's okay if you don't believe me now, we'll talk about it on that day."
In Dorothy's opinion, the magic power requirement for a mage is about 160 points. Because she has magic skills, she doesn't need to increase her intelligence attribute to 160 points to reach the level of a mage.
Then, upgrade your skills to level 60. Based on your current skill level and attribute points, you can become a standard mage in six months.
He was on par with Errol's grandfather.
As for Leons' uncle, the claim that he is at the peak of the mage level means that he could break through to become a grand mage at any time.
If we calculate based on the fact that the attribute requirements double with the increase in magic power, then a mage would need 320 points in intelligence, which would only take one year.
Leona frowned slightly as she looked at the confident Dorothy.
"Do you know how difficult it is to become a mage, let alone when you're just a magic apprentice?"
"I will do it." Dorothy said with a serious expression.
"You..." Leonce didn't know what to say.
She wanted to deceive herself a little, to believe that Dorothy was serious, that she would become someone even her uncle looked up to, and that she would help herself and Elor.
But reason tells Leona that Dorothy can't do it.
In the thousands of years of history of the City of Apprentices, Lyons is already considered one of the top geniuses.
But she didn't even have the confidence to become a mage within three years. Why did this apprentice who had just come into contact with magic dare to make such a boast?
Leon could only assume that Dorothy was new to magic and unaware of the difficulties ahead, which is why she said that.
"I'm already very grateful for your kind gesture, thank you."
Leona composed herself and calmed down.
There's no point in arguing with Dorothy about these things now.
Once Dorothy officially becomes a wizard, she will know how difficult the road ahead will be.
