Mages, Adventurers, and Women

Bone cursed under his breath, turned his back, and couldn't be bothered to watch Livy's deconstruction process.

Li Wei said in a serious tone:

"Sylvie, you are a princess of the Golden Kingdom, why do you always discriminate against other races?"

Sylvie was taken aback, thinking she had misheard.

Not only her, but also Julia, Bones, and Duron all looked at Li Wei with surprise.

When it comes to racial discrimination, who can compare to Li Wei?

He is a man with racism ingrained in his very being.

"Li Wei! Are you crazy? I'm racist? You're saying I'm racist?"

Sylvie was incredulous.

"Forget it, there's no point in arguing with someone like you who doesn't respect other races."

Li Wei beckoned to Julia and said, "Julia, come here. I'll give you a lesson on deconstructing arcane characters."

Yulia sneered, unmoved, and spat, "Pah!"

When one plan failed, Li Wei devised another, calling out to the freckled Sylvie, who was still angry with him:

“Little Freckles, come here, I’m going to give you a new lesson on deconstructing arcane characters.”

Sylvie knew how deep Levi's understanding of arcane characters was.

She is more than capable of receiving instruction.

Yulia's reaction, however, made Sylvia somewhat suspicious.

Is Li Wei really that kind-hearted?

"Sylvie, I'm asking you one last time, are you coming or not? I'll count to three, 3, 2..."

Sylvie ultimately couldn't resist her craving for knowledge of arcane characters.

Hesitantly, he walked toward Li Wei.

Yulia watched Sylvie's retreating figure and shook her head repeatedly.

Another foolish woman deceived by Li Wei's "erudite" appearance.

Only she, Julia, was the woman who truly understood Livy.

Upon further reflection, Yulia felt a sense of relief.

Li Wei's willingness to tease her and Sylvie proves that deconstruction is not difficult.

After the mission is over, she's going to soak in the hot springs in the Golden Kingdom!

Bones and Duron stood not far away, their backs to Li Wei and the other two, chatting about racially discriminatory jokes.

At my feet lay the spoils of this battle—the corpses of four Tier 1 Black Dragon-level monsters and beasts.

Li Wei held Sylvie in front of him and pressed himself against her back to point out the arcane characters on the wall that were flashing with fluorescent light.

With Levi's heavy, masculine breathing beside her ear, Sylvie and Levi were once again intimately connected. She said shyly and coyly:

"Li Wei...does it need to be this close?"

Li Wei reminded him, "Don't move. This is how you deconstruct arcane characters. Once you reach my level, you'll understand my intention."

"You...you stop hitting me..."

Sylvie's ears and cheeks turned bright red.

She was almost taken advantage of by Levi when she was in Rolling Stone.

It's very clear what it is.

*Smack*—a sway of the buttocks.

Li Wei, unabashedly, said:

"Then why are you still moving!"

Sylvie immediately realized she had been tricked by Levi, and gritted her teeth, saying:

"You're just trying to take advantage of me!"

"They have no intention of teaching me how to decipher arcane characters!"

Li Wei chuckled mischievously and said, "Wrong. The sentence structure of this secret technique is different from the sentence structure of those racially discriminatory fables used by the Cult of Immortality. I specifically called you here to teach you."

Sylvie was held tightly in Li Wei's arms, unable to move. As he caressed her, Li Wei's little spear shot out like a dragon. Sylvie's ears and temples turned red, and she didn't believe that Li Wei was being so kind.

She was convinced that Li Wei was trying to take advantage of her and flirt with her. She was sure that he was still not giving up after she rejected him last time and was trying to take advantage of the situation to do the same thing again.

What do "uuui, opop, qq-iip" mean?

"uuui is the third monotone, and the last two are the fifth combination tone."

Li Wei explained in detail.

Seeing that Li Wei was really going to teach her, Sylvie immediately immersed herself in teaching the deconstruction of arcane characters, pondering the literal meaning of "the fusion of two elements with opposite properties." Lacking confidence, she said:

"The fusion of light and the undead?"

"wrong!"

Li Wei explained:

“To deconstruct the mystical characters and their structures, one must consider the context, environment, and background. I searched through all the books about Casano City and confirmed that this was the only chapel in the unfinished Casano City, used for wedding ceremonies.”

"The cryptic phrases on the surface refer to elements with opposite or hostile characteristics, but here it is a wedding hall, and in the context of the setting, the phrases refer to newlyweds from hostile races who have held a wedding."

"According to the book, the dwarf Borandu and his dwarf wife were the only couple of hostile races to hold their wedding here. Afterwards, Borandu mocked his dwarf wife for being a wild dog, and she cut him in two with a single blow, an incident that caused a sensation in Casano."

"Therefore, this cryptic phrase represents the core of the second magic circle, because Borundu was cut in two."

Sylvie: "..."

Isn't this racial discrimination?

Also.

How did Li Wei extend the concise cryptic phrases to the story of the short man who was cut in two by his wife?

……

"The elements of a four-group combination?"

"Sylvie, if you keep pretending to be stupid, I'm definitely going to yell at you!"

"What I just taught you, do you understand how to deconstruct the context? This phrase refers to a groom marrying three wives at the same time, representing the core of the third magic array!"

……

"What are the two sacred orbs of light?"

"You know there's sacredness in sentence structure, but don't you understand the deeper meaning?"

Li Wei's aversion to stupidity was triggered by Sylvia, and he pulled her out of his arms, tapping her forehead and scolding her:

You're still so stupid!

"You haven't improved at all since the Scandinavian Mountains!"

"Sylvie, I've had enough of your stupidity!"

Sylvie lowered her head, feeling wronged, thinking that it wasn't her who begged Li Wei to teach her.

Little did she know that each seemingly simple cryptic phrase could evoke so many associations.

"You don't even understand such a simple secret technique? Sylvie, I suggest you go back to the Golden Kingdom and confess to Lady Fiena how foolish you are. I suspect she only took you in as a student because of your princess status."

"The two sacred elements—which is the most sacred in Casano City? The Lionheart Royal Family, of course!"

"Two clusters of elements represent people of similar status who are holding their weddings here."

"In historical records, during the twenty-eight years that the Lionheart royal family ruled Golden Island, there were five royal weddings. Four of them were held before the founding of Casano. Only the eldest prince, Gern, and the daughter of Grand Duke Debord, Delis, met the conditions for holding a wedding in the Moon Town Hall."

“Gern and Delis were both royal representatives who built Casano City.”

"They only had one child, who died shortly after birth."

"This cryptic phrase refers to their deceased child—so this is the core of the first magic circle."

Sylvie stared in disbelief. Her teacher, Fiena, often said that deciphering arcane characters required talent.

She mistakenly believed that reading enough books and being knowledgeable enough was a form of talent.

But compared to Li Wei... Sylvie began to doubt herself.

"Is Teacher Fiena really taking advantage of my status as a royal princess to lie and claim I'm the most talented arcane spellcaster among the younger generation on Golden Island?"

……

Li Wei successfully located the fourth, fifth, and sixth cores of the magic array.

Sylvie remained silent throughout.

Li Wei asked, "Yes, yes, you're right."

Fearing that he would answer incorrectly and be scolded by Li Wei if he pointed at his forehead... or given instructions.

Boom—

The abandoned auditorium collapsed.

Inside, two bright, magical stone tablets stood side by side before Li Wei.

Previously, the hall was shrouded in arcane characters, obstructing Li Wei's view.

Now that I can see the two magic stone tablets clearly.

He paused in his steps.

wrong!

Sylvie saw the bright, magical stone tablet and instinctively wanted to go inside, but Levi grabbed her arm.

"do not move!"

Sylvie was startled, taken aback by Levi's serious expression, and weakly said:

"Li Wei, what's wrong?"

Julia, seeing the two bright, magical stone tablets, smiled broadly and was about to step forward when Levi grabbed her arm, saying seriously:

"These two magic stone tablets must not be moved."

"The outlined six-pointed star is reversed."

Sylvie blurted out instinctively, "Levi, a six-pointed star has two sides?"

“Normally there is none, but there is when the Magic Stone Tablet is deconstructed. The true name of the Magic Stone Tablet is imprinted in the six-pointed star. By observing the state of the true name, one can know whether the six-pointed star is facing up or down.”

Sylvie frowned, having never heard of a magic stone tablet having two sides, but Levi's serious expression seemed genuine as he said:

"Li Wei, what would be the effect of going against it?"

"If we consider the Magic Stone Tablet as the anchor point of the Dark Dimension in the Grand Continent, then the contents of the Magic Stone Tablet are the garbage that the Dark Dimension throws into the Grand Continent. Conversely, it means that the Magic Stone Tablet is the anchor point of the Grand Continent in the Dark Dimension, and the contents inside are the things that the Grand Continent stores in the Dark Dimension."

“I’ve seen this concept in books and thought it was made up, but now it seems to be true.”

Yulia said unwillingly, "Aren't we going to deconstruct it?"

Li Wei decisively said, "We can't touch it. Anyone capable of storing things in the dark space is ten thousand times stronger than we imagine."

He turned and left, leading Yulia's team to the ancient well behind the ruins of the auditorium. They successfully destroyed the well, captured the Tier 1 Black Dragon-level undead creature inside—the Howling Banshee—and easily gouged out its eyes.

As they prepared to evacuate, Li Wei noticed that the magic and elements within the ruins of the auditorium were surging exceptionally.

He suddenly came to his senses.

"I understand……"

"what?"

"The auditorium uses arcane characters to attract and gather elements, which is a magic circle that keeps the magic stone tablets bright. The necromantic well behind it is a backup plan to balance the excessive amount of elements gathered in the auditorium due to the arcane characters. The person who created all of this did not want the two magic stone tablets to receive too many elements."

"Using the unique property of necromancy that it cannot coexist with other elements, the gathered elements are dispelled, keeping the magic stone tablet at a balance point and always bright. This means that the connection between the Grand Continent and the Dark Dimension, built using the magic stone tablet, will remain intact, preventing the magic stone tablet from prematurely dimming or disintegrating on its own..."

Think about this.
