"Sir, when can you pay?" The waiter looked at me unfriendly.

“I… Sister came back to get the money. I'll pay the bill in a moment.”

"Please follow me to the back." the servant said calmly.

"No, I have to wait for him here, otherwise he will be anxious when he comes back."

"You'd better come with me." As he said that, the maid grabbed my arm and tried to pull me away. Was Austin Griffin so great that he could be treated like this?

"Come on, come with me quickly, don't bother other customers!" The waiter pulled him several times but couldn't get him to move, and his face suddenly changed. Several other servants also gathered around.

Surrounded by them, I felt depressed. The great Austin Griffin is within your reach?

Just when they caught me, I waved my hand and used a low level resistance fire ring. In my mind, the three maids surrounding me must have been enchanted. But what I didn't expect was that when my fire ring of resistance touched them, their bodies instantly turned into ashes, even the tables, chairs and benches in front of me.

By the time I realized something was wrong and wanted to take back the ring of resistance, it was too late. The fire circle of resistance opened three meters wide, and not only the three servants, but also one of the two young men who were watching the farce was enveloped.

Another young man was momentarily stunned when he saw his friends turn to ashes before his eyes. And suddenly everything around me became empty.

It all happened very quickly, and the originally noisy restaurant instantly became quiet. "Witch!" I don't know who said this.

The surviving youth staggered back a few steps and stared at me blankly.

I don't know why, but I feel a little panicked right now. Are humans that fragile? At the moment when I just released the fire ring of resistance, I almost subconsciously thought that they would be thrown away or resist my magic, but I didn't expect that they were so fragile. Yes! Ordinary humans seem so fragile.

But I can't go, I have to wait here for Hepburn.

So I just stood there while the crowd reacted, panicked and screamed.

Run outside. The surviving youth also fled.

The entire restaurant quickly emptied. Not long afterward, Hepburn returned.

He saw me standing alone in the restaurant and asked in confusion: "Austin, what's wrong with you?" I looked at her, and for some reason, I felt a very special emotion in my heart: "Hepburn, I seem to have made a mistake."

At this moment, neat footsteps could be heard from outside.

When a group of soldiers in armor ran in from outside, I had already told Hepburn what happened.

Hepburn didn't scold me, but hugged me. He rarely does this since I grew to his height.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault, it's not your fault." Her voice sounded a little crying.

"Kill the people on the street, take them down!" Soldiers wearing armor quickly surrounded him.

Without realizing it, I let go of Hepburn's arms. The anxiety in my heart has disappeared in Hepburn's arms. When I felt these soldiers threatened Hepburn's safety, all I could think about was protecting her.

The raging flame exploded and turned into a wall of fire that blocked us. I said firmly: "Don't come here if you don't want to die."

"Wizard? Lord Wizard?" The leading general was stunned, and all the soldiers subconsciously withdrew.

The general's attitude changed drastically in an instant: "Dear Mr. Wizard, what happened? I think this may be a misunderstanding."

In the next few minutes, I fully realized how high the status of magicians was in the Ottoman Empire. After I told them what happened, the leading general said that the civilians had offended the magicians and deserved their deaths. Then, he respectfully watched Hepburn and me leave.

Is it that simple? Quite a lot of people died!

Although the problem has been resolved, I don't know why I feel a little uncomfortable. Hepburn held my hand, comforted me with her warmth, and rarely cursed me.

Inside the restaurant.

"General, are you just going to let them go? After all, so many people died."

"What do you know? Didn't you see how that young man released magic just now? That wall of fire technique was instantaneous. It was fourth-level magic. Do you know what the concept of instant fourth-level magic is? That's a seventh-level great wizard. At his age , it is definitely impossible for him to reach the seventh level. So, this means that he must have powerful magical equipment at such a young age, and there must be a big person behind him. The ceremony is about to begin consequences as soon as possible."

After an hour.

"What? Jun'er is dead? How is that possible? How could she die? Damn it! Who killed Jun'er?!"

"He's still young. He, he uses the ring of fire to fight..."

"Jun'er is dead, why aren't you dead? Jun'er, Jun'er, I only have a son like you! Bastard, bastard! Who killed Jun'er?!"

Back at the Magic Tower, seeing that I was always a little gloomy, Hepburn sat next to me and kept me company.

"What's wrong? Are you still thinking about that? It's all my fault. I was wrong for not bringing money." As he said that, he pinched my face gently.

I was a little uncomfortable with the gentle way of pinching it, it was a bit itchy.

"I just didn't expect those people to be so fragile. I didn't want to kill them, I just wanted to push them away. But I accidentally killed someone, okay? Witches are not responsible for killing people?"

Hepburn sighed softly and said: "Witches can be freed from many crimes. This is the rule of our Ottoman Empire."

“But is this fair?” I asked him.

"It's really unfair, but the empire needs to rely on the power of the magicians. Don't use magic on ordinary people anymore, okay? Although We are personal interests, but I hope you can keep your heart. I will handle this matter. I will ask teacher's help and asked him to compensate the families of those who died."

"Yes." Even so, I still felt uncomfortable.

Hepburn seemed to be affected by my mood and said nothing about it the next day. After Zhu Rong got the report about the situation from Hepburn, he said he would handle it and said no more. However, this incident gave me a little more understanding of the world, and a little more disgust.

The celebration was held as scheduled, in the large square in front of the Magic Tower. Early in the morning, soldiers surrounded the square. There are various arrangements on the field, divided into different areas according to different colors.

In the center of the square is a huge six-pointed star array, with a high platform hanging above the six-pointed star array. Surrounding the six-pointed star are elements representing the seven attributes of water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, and space. When I arrived at the square, it was already full of wizards. There were several wizards, and they all wore large magic robes, and their faces could not be seen clearly.
