234 - The Incinerator Burns

Plotline: Main

Type: Social

When the attacks happened, we apprentices normally stayed asleep. It was a good change of pace, so far as I was concerned. Ah, the blessed feeling of having full health!

It had its disadvantages, beyond those I've already mentioned. For example, on the morning after I started evolving my digestive system again, we learned that Incinerator Bei had died. Ironically, to a flame attack.

"I'm sorry, what?" I asked Madonna.

"I'm in charge of the apprentices, including you. Since I don't want the job, I'm naming you, the apprentice with the least complaints against you, as Head Apprentice. You'll be in charge of the meditation room, picking up the water mana in the morning, and distributing it for conversion to fire mana. With our reduced number of fire mages, we need only twenty four fire mana each day. Earth and metal quotas are the same."

Yan Di muttered something.
