Mages, Adventurers, and Women

"Yes, Your Excellency. Branch President Frey has been gone for a long time; she seems to have something important to do."

"What is your relationship with Branch President Frey? I can register you, and I will inform her truthfully as soon as she returns."

relationship?

According to Clack, Levi and Frey were co-parenting the child.

Starting from Rolling Stone Town...

"I am a friend of Lady Frey."

Li Wei said shamelessly.

He wanted to use Frey's identity in the Mage Guild to plunder the knowledge he needed.

The students' qualifications are not high enough.

After much thought, I realized that friendship is of greater value.

Frey is the 3rd-tier Archmage President of the Rolling Stone Town Mage Association, so as friends, they are at least of equal status.

"friend?"

The clerk at the counter was quite surprised. Just as she was about to register the information in the "Relationship Frey Doesn't Know" section, she saw the instructions Frey had left before leaving:

“Livi, Beni, Gwado, Robin, and Fia from Rolling Stone Town came to me. I will give priority to Livi for my Mage Association and Mage Academy.”

"Li Wei's features: black hair, black eyes, and handsome."

The saleswoman at the counter took another look at Li Wei's handsome features—black hair, black eyes, and a face that rivaled that of a pure-blooded elf—and confirmed:

"Are you Lord Li Wei from Rolling Stone?"

"it's me."

Li Wei had been keeping a watchful eye on her, clearly understanding why the girl at the counter was asking the question.

"Then there's no problem. Welcome to the headquarters of the Golden Island Mage Association, Lord Li Wei."

The salesgirl at the counter tried to be friendly.

……

Frey granted Li Wei the limited access to books in the libraries of the Mage Association and the Mage Academy.

There was no inheritance of lightning, wind, and ice magic that Li Wei longed for.

The saleswoman at the counter explained that there are two ways to learn or purchase these three magical inheritances from the Mage Association.

First, students majoring in relevant fields at the Golden Kingdom Mage Academy can access this information for free.

Second, the points contributed by the Golden Island Mage Association headquarters meet the purchase requirements.

The enrollment season for the magic academy is five months away, so this doesn't apply to Li Wei.

The latter, by completing tasks assigned by the Mage Association, will earn contribution points.

Most of the tasks are related to "deconstructing complex arcane character structures".

This was one of Li Wei's specialties. He asked the girl at the counter to help him register as a Level 1 mage at the Golden Island Mage Association headquarters, and then he accepted the mission.

The other party said that registration requires an assessment. Because of the branch president Frey, Li Wei can come to participate in the first-level mage assessment the day after tomorrow. Unlike other mages, he does not need to wait a month. Once he passes, he will get the identity badge and the right to accept missions.

Li Wei paid a 1-gold assessment fee, which would not be refunded if he failed the assessment.

This shows how severe the exploitation of ordinary monks by the Dharma Masters Association is.

Li Wei then asked about matters related to mental energy. The girl at the counter proactively suggested that if Li Wei wanted to learn about first-tier mental energy, he could go to the fifth floor of the library at the Mage Academy.

After being politely declined Li Wei's invitation to a date, she was so angry that she cursed herself for giving Li Wei advice earlier.

As Li Wei passed through the Priests' Association area and headed towards the Law School area, he made a point of observing the female priests whose bodies were rich in light element. Their breast sizes varied, with Frey, Melanie, and Elda being exceptions.

Surprisingly, in addition to the headquarters of the Golden Island Pastors Association, the Pastors Association area also has a wide variety of other pastors' denominations and their headquarters.

With the Church of the Immortals preceding him, Livy held strong stereotypical and discriminatory impressions of various pastoral denominations.

He strode across the pastoral association area and into the law school area.

The Academy District, twice the size of the Adventurers' Guild District, houses two colossal institutions—the Priest Academy and the Mage Academy.

The entrance to the pastoral college is a magnificent and sacred chapel.

Opposite it, at the entrance to the mage academy, stood two towering "Rosman Trees." Between the two trees, a vortex-shaped magical barrier was woven from magic. Levi, holding the palm-sized badge shaped like the "Isley Tree" left by Frey, easily passed through the barrier.

As you pass through the barrier, it feels as if a pair of possessive, alluring, and soft hands are caressing your entire body.

After confirming that there were no traces of other women hiding away, Li Wei was allowed to enter the magic academy.

As far as the eye can see.

Noble roseman trees are everywhere, their towering canopies blocking out the sun.

The magical vines I once saw at the Rolling Stone Wizarding Guild hung between the trees, weaving together a huge vine platform and vine paths.

Ancient, magical treehouses hang from the branches. Often, sleepy students emerge from the treehouses, panting, and the clever magical vines immediately weave a vine staircase at their feet, either reaching the ground or connecting to the tree trunk.

At my feet, vibrant, colorful flowers bloom in full glory, their ethereal beauty and rich, swirling fragrance creating countless colorful "dewdrops" that cling to the petals.

Li Wei looked around.

Everything about the magic academy intrigued him, and he stopped to observe.

At his feet, dense magical vines stretched out tender shoots that poked at Li Wei's face, hands, and calves.

Pfft—

Pfft—

……

This scene aroused the curiosity of the students who brushed past Li Wei.

They were dressed in uniform dark blue robes, each with one or more badges pinned to their chests, all bearing the emblem of the mage academy in the shape of the "Isleyan Tree." They whispered:

"The magic vines love mages with pure elements the most."

"This person is such a pure elemental being. This is the first time I've ever seen a mage so popular with magical vines..."

"Unfamiliar face, and doesn't look like someone from our academy. Is he some outsider who's just freeloading off the library?"

"It's highly likely that the Golden Island Magic Professionals Exchange Meeting will start soon. I heard that many wild mages from the countryside and two other small countries have come to our academy's library to look for the 'treasure of victory'."

"What's the use of pure elemental magic? A mage with only elemental magic is just an elemental barbarian. A bunch of ignorant wild mages from out of town, mistakenly thinking that the library has the secret to winning the exchange meeting. Sigh... I have no expectations. I guess this year our academy's 'mage master' will win first place in the exchange meeting again."

"Don't say that. Maybe there are some highly talented mages from other places? Like that wild mage who was favored by the magic vines just now, hahaha."

"A joke? I admit yours is funnier than the dwarf joke."

"I feel like my chances of becoming a legendary mage are greater than the chances of a wild mage from out of town winning first place at the exchange meeting."

"You know what, it's true!"

……

Li Wei was surprised.

He was discriminated against.

If you're in Rolling Rock, the kind-hearted dark mage and Rolling Rock nobleman, Livy, will give them a bone spear bound with orbs of fire and lightning elemental energy.

Thoughts wandered.

Li Wei found himself somewhat nostalgic for the simple way of life in Rolling Stone—if you didn't like someone, you just killed them; there were no complicated rules or schemes.

The arrogance of the passing students also stirred Li Wei's competitive spirit.

As a mage who wanders in the pursuit of exploration and knowledge.

Losing your competitive spirit is like taking off your pants and hanging down – utterly boring.

Li Wei originally didn't care about the Golden Island Legal Professionals Exchange Meeting.

At that moment, I silently decided to give it my all at the exchange meeting.

He wanted to see what kind of background allowed the students of the magic academy to be so arrogant.

……

The library is located deep within the Law School.

It is shaped like a staff lying horizontally.

It occupies a huge area.

It has nine layers, yet it creates a uniquely slender feel for the staff.

With Freya's permission, Li Wei had no trouble getting through.

Take the spiral staircase to the fifth floor.

The bookshelves stand in rows, and numerous magic cleaning cloths tirelessly wipe every corner of them.

On the fifth floor of the open space, a magical broom lazily swept away the barely visible dust. Stepping forward, a magical cleaner, resembling a wooden spider and the size of a bone palm, devoured the tiny grains of sand scattered at Li Wei's feet.

A miniature elf, an alchemical artifact about the size of a palm in Duron and with a pair of transparent wings, flew around Li Wei's neck, puffing out its mouth and silently blowing a breeze to cool Li Wei down and calm his mind.

A tray flew to him, containing black tea and coffee.

Li Wei selected black tea, and the teacup floated to his side on its own. The miniature sprite then flew to the rim of the teacup, frowned, and blew on the scalding tea, looking quite adorable as it busied itself.

The bookshelves from the sixth to the thirty-sixth row contain miscellaneous books on spiritual matters.

Whether it's experience, notes, or conjecture, how to extract useful spiritual knowledge from it requires the reader to contemplate, compare, and explore on their own.

Skillful.

Li Wei is best at this.

He started from the sixth row of bookshelves, pulled out five books, held them in front of him with the hands of a monk, and immediately became engrossed in them.

Time flies by.

People came and went on the fifth floor in a constant stream.

They all noticed Livy's strangeness to some extent.

Someone whispered to their companion, mocking:

"Look at that black-haired, black-eyed kid, holding five miscellaneous books on mental cultivation with the hands of a mage, isn't he afraid of making a mistake? Haha, what a show-off. No mage reads five books at once."

"I guess he's some wild mage showing off that he can cast ten Mage Hands?"

"He really does look like a wild mage from out of town. Look at his clothes, his broken sword, and not even a badge."

"Hey—I just noticed, what's that new badge you're wearing? I've never seen it before."

"You have a sharp eye. This is a rare find. You know that the academy is currently collecting adventurer team badges because of the Adventurers' Guild's annual big event, right?"

"Of course, I'm wearing the Silver Sword badge, which was ranked tenth in the Goblin Group at the beginning of the month, but is now the number one Radiant Squad badge."

"No, no, no, you're too out of touch. An elder of mine who works at the Adventurers' Guild said that the team ranked tenth at the beginning of the month wasn't the Silver Sword, but an adventurer team from Rolling Stone Town called the Julia Squad—the badge I'm wearing is the Julia Squad. Their captain, Levi, is very powerful, and it seems they have connections to two new forbidden areas: the Navia Mountains in the Monster Hills and Baron Dela's Castle."

"Yulia's Squad? The captain's name is Levi? Why isn't it called Levi's Squad?"

"Why worry about so much? Rolling Stone Town doesn't have any class in its naming. Listen to me, go buy my Yulia Squad badge now. After the Goblin Group rankings are announced at the beginning of the month, the Yulia Squad badge will be a rare commodity. You might even make a profit!"

"Can they do it? I've only heard of Blood Butcher, who's currently ranked tenth in Rolling Stone. This Yulia Squad sounds pretty weak... they have no presence at all."

Believe it or not!

……

Li Wei looked closely and realized that the emblem of Yulia's party in the Adventurers' Guild was a bow and arrow crossed with a staff.

The word "Yulia" is branded at the point where the two weapons meet.

"Luckily, Yulia didn't hear it, or she would have been furious."

Li Wei pulled himself out of his thoughts and continued to absorb the missing knowledge about mental systems.
