Start by logging into the Old Man's Ring at Hogwarts

Seren opened her eyes somewhat blankly. She was now inside the magician's ball, surrounded by complete darkness.

This was completely different from what she had imagined.

Just then, a knocking sound came from outside, followed by Zicomo's voice.

"Teacher? Are you still inside?"

"Disciple?" Seren asked instinctively.

“Oh? Are you still there? Why don’t you come out and we can talk?” Zicomo said.

"I'm inside the Magician's Ball right now, how do I get out..."

Before she could finish speaking, Seren suddenly realized she could move. So she walked out in the direction from which Zicomo's voice was coming.

After coming out, the first thing Seol-ryeon did was to check his physical condition.

"Am I in a soul state?"

Seren's tone was somewhat surprised; he hadn't found it inside the magician's ball earlier.

Only after the magician ball appeared did Seren realized that she had already become a spirit.

No wonder she can move freely inside the Wizard's Ball.

While Seren was examining himself, Zicomo was also sizing him up.

This was the first time Zicomo had ever seen his teacher in person.

In her soul form, Seren no longer wore her radiant stone shield, but instead revealed her true form.

She had long, brown hair styled in a side-swept hairstyle. Her eyes were bright blue, like stars.

Her skin was fair, and she looked very young overall, like a girl in her early twenties.

"I never imagined that your true face under the hood would be so beautiful, teacher," Zicomo exclaimed.

"Although I am very happy that you praised me, could you please explain what is going on with me right now?" Seren asked in confusion.

Seren believes his current state is definitely related to Zicomo, otherwise he wouldn't be here.

"Well, to put it simply, in order to prevent you from becoming like Master Yazler and Master Luther who can't even speak, I tampered with your Source Stone," Zicomo explained.

“No, my disciple, you cannot stop your master from exploring the origins, this…”

Before Seren could finish speaking, Zicomo interrupted, "I didn't stop you from exploring the origins. Teacher, you can feel it carefully."

Upon hearing this, Serian closed his eyes and carefully sensed it.

She discovered that she still had a connection with the Origin Land, and she could go there to explore whenever she wanted.

Serian opened his eyes and asked in confusion, "Then what's going on with my soul right now?"

"This is just a path I, as your disciple, prepared especially for you to return home, in case you get lost in that place of origin."

Zicomo briefly recounted the safeguards he had left in Seren's Source Stone.

"...I see. I use my Originite as an anchor point to position myself at the border, while also protecting my soul from being affected by the crystallization of the Originite. In this way, my emotions and thoughts can also be preserved."

Serian exclaimed, "My disciple, you've done your master a great favor once again!"

“Helping teachers solve their problems is something that students should also do,” Zicomo replied.

Seren heard these words and they sounded very familiar. Wasn't this what she had said to Qi Komo before?

Unexpectedly, Zicomo returned it to him.

She also remembered Zicomo's earlier words to her, "See you later."

She finally understood what Zicomo meant by what he said earlier.

Upon learning that his emotions and thoughts would not be crystallized by the pyroxene, Seren slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

That way, she won't have to worry about not seeing her lovely apprentice again.

At the same time, Seren was proud of Zicomo's excellence, for he had come up with such a method to avoid pyroxene crystallization.

This allows her to explore the origins and also return to the borderlands to rest.

Thinking of this, Seren looked at Zicomo and said, "Good disciple, I won't say any more words of thanks. I'll go explore the Origin first, and if I find anything, I'll come back to you."

Zicomo saw the eagerness in Seren's eyes and nodded, saying, "Then this disciple wishes Master a safe journey."

Seren waved goodbye to Zikomo and returned to the Wizard's Orb, beginning her journey of exploring the origins.

Seeing that Seren was no longer moving, Zicomo picked up the Wizard's Ball and returned to the Great Archives.

He planned to enlarge Seren's Magician's Ball to the center of the library and add some protection to it.

To avoid anyone disturbing Seren's exploration of the origins.

To this end, Zicomo left a trace of his spirit on the Wizard's Orb, so that he could easily know when Seren returned from the Land of Origin.

After doing all this, Zicomo suddenly had a strong sense of déjà vu.

Isn't this just like when Lani left behind a portion of her power here to protect her mother and prevent anyone from disturbing Renara's slumber?

Unexpectedly, this time it was his turn to do it.

Thinking of Lani and Rena La, Zicomo decided to go and see how the mother and daughter were getting along.

Just as Zicomo was about to go find Lani, he turned around and saw Lani leading Rena La toward him.

The mother and daughter chatted and laughed as they walked, appearing to be having a very pleasant conversation.

The mother and daughter approached Zikomo. Lenara looked at Seren's hood on the Magician's Ball, and the smile on her face faded.

Lena asked Zicomo with some emotion, "Did she ultimately choose to pursue the origin?"

"Yes, but I estimate the teacher will be back in a while."

Zicomo recounted the methods he had left on Seren's Source Stone.

After hearing this, Lena La visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

She had seen what Serian had been doing during this time.

Although it was Zicomo's request to Seren, Seren did indeed reclaim the magic academy and even reorganized it.

This undoubtedly ended the long-standing conflict between the Caria royal family and the Real Lucaria Magic Academy.

As the queen of the Kalia royal family, Lena La was deeply grateful to Seren.

During this time, she and Seren lived together in the Great Archives, and their paths inevitably crossed.

Seren is the only person Renara can speak to on equal terms.

So the two gradually let go of their past grievances and became good friends.

Or perhaps... in-laws?

As the saying goes, "A teacher for a day is a father for life." Serena is Zicomo's teacher, and she does indeed treat Zicomo somewhat like her own child.

It wouldn't be wrong to say that she and Renara are related by marriage.

Now Renara knows that Seren will not be completely affected by the crystallization of the sapphire and will still retain the freedom of his soul.

Lena also breathed a sigh of relief.

However, she immediately thought that Seren had gone to explore the origins, and Zicomo was going to take Lani across the border.

Does that mean the magic academy and the Kalia royal family will be under her management again?

She hadn't had much free time before she was already planning to relinquish her responsibilities as Queen Full Moon.

How did the position of Queen fall to her again?

At this moment, Lena La desperately hoped that Zicomo would quickly become the King of Elden and then unify the borderlands so that she could retire in peace.

wrong!

Lena suddenly remembered her daughter's legal philosophy.

It seems to be about keeping the law away from borders and letting all beings take control of their own destiny.

Lani, on the other hand, embarked on a journey through the stars with her king.

In that case, wouldn't she, the Full Moon Queen, never have a day to abdicate?

Thinking of this, Lenara said to Zicomo, "Child, after you become the King of Elden, don't rush to travel to the stars with Lani. Give your mother a grandson or granddaughter first..."

"Mother!"

Lani interrupted Rena La before she could finish speaking.

She didn't know what had gotten into her mother. One second she was lamenting Serian's passing, and the next she was suddenly bringing up such an embarrassing topic.

"Don't talk!"

Lena glared at Lani, then continued to say to Zicomo, "Lani must have told you about the laws, and I know neither of you will stay at the border."

Therefore, your mother hopes that you will leave offspring, even if it's just for me to raise them. The Kalia royal family and the magic academy need a new leader.

After listening, Lani finally understood why her mother had suddenly brought up the topic of having children.

“Mother, I have no plans to leave the border region for the time being! So please don’t bring up the matter of our offspring again for now, okay?”

Lani's voice was a pitch higher than usual, clearly indicating that she was not at peace.
