The potions of the black robed Magus and female blonde Magus immediately turned to ashes. Furthermore, two streams of blood flowed down from their noses.
“Interesting! Earlier, I felt that the acting of the black robed Magus was somewhat poor, but now, have they been colluding?”
Leylin smirked. His elemental essence conversion had been significantly boosted. Also, with the help of the A.I. Chip, these two were unaware, and had actually taken a small hit from him.
They most likely had to recuperate for a period of time before fully recovering from the spiritual force attack from earlier.
”My Lord! I forfeit!” The black-cloaked man glanced at Leylin in fright, and promptly lowered his head, afraid to look him in the eye any longer.
“Me too!” The blonde Magus yelled.
“Permitted!” Tyne answered.
The two Magi quickly gave Tyne a bow, and darted out of the hall.
Unexpectedly, neither of them had any complaints or glared at anyone.
“At least these two know their place!”
Leylin thought nothing of their behaviour.
Magicians respected power. In the earlier exchange, he could tell that the two Magi’s elemental essence conversions were not higher than 10%, so they most likely had only just advanced.
They posed no threat to the current Leylin.
It seemed they were well aware of this fact, and quickly withdrew from the assessment, even being afraid that Leylin would pursue the matter.
“Did you see that? What an interesting performance!”
Wade grinned as he spoke to Tyne.
“Yes, his elemental essence conversion is of a rather high level. His ability to manipulate spiritual force is also amazing!”
Tyne nodded, his expression stern.
“And I was still worried that he was a spy from some organisation! I’m afraid nobody would be willing to use someone like him as a spy!”
“So this is your conclusion?” Wade blinked. This was the first time Tyne had such a good impression of somebody.
“No! This is just my hypothesis!” Tyne’s usually expressionless face suddenly had a mischievous smile.
“You!”
As Tyne’s colleague, Wade naturally knew that his counterpart’s frosty indifference was just an act. In fact, Tyne had a mischievous mindset.
As for Wade, who looked more normal between the two, he often had to take the blame for Tyne’s behaviour.
“The Jeffrey’s Purifying Potion! I’ve completed it!”
At this moment, Leylin indicated his completion by waving his hands.
This voice was extremely abrupt in the originally silent hall. In a moment, many gazes from magicians glanced at Leylin.
Firmly held in Leylin’s hand was a test-tube with a milky white substance.
Wade came in front of Leylin, and carefully took the potion from him. He then began to scribble on a form.
“Very well! You can leave now. Ten days later, come to the recruitment area at the communal centre, and await for your results!”
Wade gave Leylin an extremely warm smile.
“Many thanks!”
Leylin smiled and bowed before leaving from a side door.
He understood that the test had been successfully passed. As long as there were no problems when they reexamined his current status, the Four Seasons Garden would never deny his entry.
Outside of the communal area were the wide streets of Zone 2 in Nightless City. The bustling activity on the streets continued, as people continued to pass by.
Anyone who had registered and provided their paperwork were allowed to stay in Zone 2, so Leylin was even able to see some regular humans here.
Chapter 156 – Pass
Pass
Regular humans who lived in the domain of light Magi had better lives than those in the dark Magi domain.
Furthermore, the revered magicians even allowed them to obtain resident rights in Zone 2 as long as they continuously worked hard for it.
However, from what Leylin saw, it was only a different form of management.
Regular humans were treated at the same level as wild grasses in the dark Magi domain, and they did not receive management very often. The only thing was that they would be harvested in times of need.
As for the light Magi, they treated these humans as pieces of property; hence, they could afford to invest huge amounts of time and effort to manage them in order to reap greater benefits.
Even in the most open minded domain of the light Magi, magicians always had a position far above regular humans. Furthermore, this gap in status surpassed the gap between regular humans and nobles.
Leylin saw many situations in which regular humans, even those that seemed to be nobility, respectfully moved aside and gave a deep bow when they saw an acolyte.
Leylin paid no mind to these situations, however. The test today was rather taxing, and he was prepared to enjoy a hearty feast, then proceed to Crew’s house to inquire about some matters.
The old geezer was very talkative, and Leylin wasn’t planning on asking him anything confidential, so he was naturally willing to entertain Leylin.
Crash!
“Ah!”
Suddenly, a little girl in a white dress, who was chasing something like a rubber ball, bumped into Leylin’s leg.
Rather than Leylin, who stayed in the same spot, the little girl fell backwards onto the ground.
She opened her eyes wide, and when she saw Leylin in his leather armour, she promptly began to cry in fear.
The congested street instantly became quiet, and regular people quickly backed away. Even a few acolytes yelped, “official Magus,” and phrases along those lines, and bowed while drawing back.
“My lord! Please forgive my daughter for unwittingly offending you!”
At the moment, a slightly plump noble prostrated himself in front of Leylin. He had cold sweat dripping down his quivering body.
In the Nightless City, the authority of the official Magi were extremely high. Even if they were to casually kill several humans, they would, at most, only be fined a set amount of magic crystals.
If Leylin’s mood wasn’t good, he could just kill these two people here, and they wouldn’t be able to do anything but accept their fate.
The plump noble kowtowed as he pulled the little girl to kneel as well. “Quickly, seek forgiveness from the Lord!”
This atmosphere that seemed like a befalling calamity had also influenced the little girl. She held back her sobs and blankly stared on.
“It’s alright!”
Leylin picked up the rubber ball on the roadside and handed it to the little girl. He even ruffled her hair with his right hand.
“It’s no big deal! No need to worry!”
“Thank you, Lord!” “Thank you, Lord!”
With a feeling of a renewed life, the fatty’s words were choked back. Even the little girl that he had brought along seemed to heave a sigh of relief.
“Do not be this impudent in the future anymore!”
Leylin nonchalantly lectured the fatty before leaving the scene in large strides, as the revered gazes of the passerby stared on.
“Do not be this disobedient in future anymore. Fortunately, this time, it was a kind magician. If it wasn’t…”
The fatty wiped off the sweat on his forehead as he scolded the girl.
As for the white-robed girl, she looked at the direction Leylin headed towards with admiration.
……
Nine days later, in a spacious room.
An old Magus with a head of white hair and gilded spectacles was looking at the pieces of information he was holding in his hand.
Within a transparent crystal ball, lines of text appeared.
“Leylin Farlier! From the Chernobyl Islands. Entered Abyssal Bone Forest Academy in the year 20987 of the Saint Yuan Calendar!” Next to these words, there was also a picture of a boy who was around thirteen or fourteen years old, and very similar in appearance to the current Leylin.
On another crystal ball nearby, there was a detailed record of Leylin’s experiences in the Abyssal Bone Forest Academy. As long as the information was made available to the public, it was all written there. There was even an article regarding the matter of how he had offended the Lilytell family.
“Hm! For the sake of a couple remnants? Seems reasonable!”
The old Magus nodded.
“Look, should we ask him to hand over the research materials he obtained from the ruins?” A Magus with a third eye on his forehead said.
“No, all official Magi have their own secrets. We need to learn to be lenient and tolerant, or else all of the magicians in the organisation would end up only acting for their personal benefits, leading to the segregation of groups!
There were several Magi who had journeyed throughout the south coast and managed to break through. If Four Seasons Garden demanded Leylin hand over his research, it would definitely draw the ire of other Magi, which would definitely provide no benefits for them.
“However, based on Wade’s information, that Magus called Leylin had a slightly different aura than regular Magi. He might have broken through with some ancient methods…”
The Three-Eyed Magus was somewhat unresigned.
“Those alternative paths that a Magus might take may not have the advantages that you think they might…”
