Hello, is this a letter addressed to Demon Fortress?

Lin Gui looked at White and asked with a strange expression.

"So your goddess is Miss Saintess?"

"You only learned astigmatism techniques to pursue Eve?"

"What kind of logic is this?"

"Would Eve think more highly of you because you learned astigmatism?"

White quickly shook his head.

"no."

"Goddess Isaiah, how could she possibly be someone like me, with no background, parents who are prop makers, and an ordinary middle-class commoner, who could possibly aspire to be like her?"

"The only one who can pursue Lord Isaiah is a legendary hero."

"It is said that there was once a candidate hero who seemed to be pursuing Lord Isaiah, and even declared that he would oppose the Church of Light."

Lin Gui asked.

"Since you're not pursuing Eve, then why are you learning the Astigmatism Technique?"

White pointed to the mage charm ranking in Lin Gui's hand.

"My goddess is in line later."

Upon hearing this, Lin Gui turned a few pages down.

After turning a few pages, his fingers stopped.

[The City of a Thousand Towers, the Second Most Beautiful]

【Freya - Ice Heart】

The woman in the portrait has long, ice-blue hair and cold, sharp, ice-blue eyes.

She was dressed in ice-patterned armor and held a long sword shrouded in icy aura; she was like a walking iceberg.

The following description is concise and powerful.

[Occupation: Captain of the North Wind Transport Team]

Age: 35

[Family: Bingxin Family (Northern Border Guardian Noble)]

[Personality traits: Aloof and powerful.]

[Difficulty Level: Demigod]

[Strategy suggestion: Give up, don't even think about it. No one is worthy of the mage who was once the most talented in the Thousand Towers.]

Lin Gui: "..."

They're all acquaintances anyway.

Lin Gui silently raised his head and looked at White.

"Is your goddess Captain Freya?"

White shook his head hastily again.

"How could I possibly be worthy of the Ice Queen!"

"Ahem, my goddess, ranked tenth."

Upon hearing this, Lin Gui quickly flipped to the next dozen or so pages.

His finger stopped on the last page.

[The City of a Thousand Towers, the Tenth Most Beautiful]

Lillian Nialld

[Occupation: Heart of Elements, Magic Theory Academy, 4th Year]

Age: 21

[Family: The Nørde family (Although a member of a magical family, Lillian is from a marginalized branch; it is rumored that she is the illegitimate daughter of a nobleman of the Nørde family who had a one-night stand)]

The girl in the painting doesn't look as dazzling as the previous two.

She was petite and wore a large, dark mage's hood with the brim pulled low, almost covering half of her face.

Her exposed jawline was soft, and the tip of her nose was slightly upturned, giving her a youthful and rounded appearance.

She was holding an outrageously thick old book in her arms, its spine covered with various labels.

She looked like a little sparrow huddled in its shell, ready to hide itself in a pile of pages at any moment.

Unlike Eve's purity and Freya's cold elegance.

This girl exudes a kind of curiosity and bewilderment that draws people in.

What left Lin Gui speechless was the following part.

[Personality Traits: A fervent researcher of magical theory, with an extreme interest in all obscure, bizarre, and outdated forms of magic.]

[As of now, Lillian possesses the following types of magic.]

[49 types of intermediate-level spells: Echo, Scatter Light, Wind Blade, Hair Color Change, Reverse Gravity (only effective on feathers)...]

[92 basic spells: Levitation, Electric Spark, Wind Spell, Armor Growth, Flower Growth, Earth Growth...]

Lin Gui blinked as he stared at the long list of names.

A strong sense of familiarity washed over me.

He opened his personal information in the system and compared it back and forth in the section on mastering magic.

Almost all the basic and intermediate magic he possessed, except for soul and spatial magic, could be found in this girl's list.

This really surprised him.

Lin Gui's lips twitched, and he couldn't help but ask a question.

"Could this girl also have a system that extracts useless magic?"

The system's voice rang in my mind.

[Host, we are the only ones.]

Lin Gui shrugged and continued reading.

[Difficulty Level: Legendary]

[Strategy Tip: If you can discuss with her for over three hours the "impact of the spectral shift of the Illumination spell on the stability of the magic circuit" without being driven crazy by her technical jargon, you might get a chance to get her to peek out from behind the book and look at you.]

[Editor's note from the Charm Ranking Editorial Department: Note that it's only half a head.]

[Note: According to reliable sources, Lillian is currently single and maintains a "uh-huh, oh, okay" level of social distance with most people who get close to her.]

After finishing reading, Lin Gui closed the book and looked at White.

"So, you want to learn astigmatism correction just to win over this girl?"

White explained.

"Yes."

"The last person to borrow the Astigmatism spell was Lillian."

"When she returned, I wanted to learn this magic so that I could get closer to my goddess through it."

"Those who pursue Lillian know that she is only interested in those who possess these strange and unusual magics."

"But who could have imagined..."

He looked down at his hands, his voice filled with regret.

"Before I could even get close to her, Eli's men cornered me in the bathroom."

"Then I dropped out of school and was kicked out of the Heart of Elements."

"My parents paid a large sum of money to the Eli family to keep me from being sent to prison."

"They've invested half their life savings."

"I'm still working as an assistant in a prop shop to pay off my debts."

His shoulders twitched, and his voice gradually turned into a gritted-teeth tone.

"I could have graduated normally."

"I could have obtained my full mage certification from the Royal Magic Academy."

"I could have given my parents a better life..."

"It's all because of her."

"If this woman hadn't bewitched me, why would I have borrowed that damned magic?"

"How did you end up getting involved with Eli's people?"

He raised his head, the drunkenness in his eyes replaced by a twisted resentment.

That face, which should have been young, was now contorted in a grimace, giving it an unsettling, grotesque appearance.

Lin Gui looked at his appearance and his expression turned indifferent.

"Shouldn't you hate that rich kid the most?"

"It was Eli who personally brought you to this point."

The name was like a bucket of ice water poured over White's head.

The ferocity on his face vanished instantly, replaced by a deep-seated fear.

He shrank back, as if afraid that the owner of that name might pop out from some corner.

"No...that's not it."

"Young Master Eli just... just misunderstood."

"It's just that I'm unlucky."

It was me...

He spoke incoherently, trying to defend the person who had pushed him into the abyss, his voice growing softer and softer.

White, who had just been filled with resentment, now shrank back like a mouse whose tail had been stepped on.
