“Heh?!” Rolen heard a sound appear inside her head and was startled: “No! No! I have no intention of stealing money from Alec, no, I meant master.”
Medos: “…”
“Calm down, I am Medos, the one who sent you the order.” Medos, who was upset, spoke.
He felt a bit tired and regretful because he was the one who suggested sealing a bit of Rolen’s intelligence.
This isn’t just any sealing; this is sealing half of her intelligence.
“Medos? You are a senior manager – Medos?” Rolen asked suspiciously. .
“That’s right.” Medos replied.
“You…where are you? Why can’t I see you? Rolen looked around, trying to find Medos.
“Stop looking.” Medos sighed and said: “I am taking refuge inside Alec.”
“Hiding inside, Alec?” Rolen was startled: “What do you mean… you two… you two have already reached this stage?”
Medos: “…”
“What the hell are you thinking? My soul is residing inside Alec’s necklace.”
“Ah!” Rolen nodded, her face showing a bit of disappointment.
“What do you mean by that expression? What are you thinking?
“Hehehe… sorry, manager.” Rolen scratched her head and said.
Medos was so angry that he was panting. He didn’t think that there was someone who could make him this angry after becoming a soul.
“Alec is not dead.” Medos said: “Take him to the medical room of the Enchanter Tower, I will keep him alive until then.”
“Heh?! So, does that mean he’s not dead? Rolen pouted.
Medos: “…” ( ￣ ￣ |||)
“Shut up!” He shouted: “Alec is your master after all. Even if he is a bit excessive, stupid, corrupt, and perverted, he is still your master.”
“You must be loyal to him, understand?”
“Ah! I understand.” Rolen nodded uncomfortably.
“Good! Take him to the Enchanter Tower’s infirmary; I’ll keep him alive until then.”
“But…” Rolen said shyly: “I… I don’t have money.”
“Huh! Don’t think I don’t know, you still have quite a lot of gold coins. Listen to me, you will lend it to Alec, later, he will pay you back massively.”
Rolen was startled and retreated: “No! This is the money I saved to get married. If I don’t have this money, who will marry me?”
Medos felt an extremely bad headache: “Are you… stupid? You are Alec’s servant, you will definitely become his woman in the future.”
“Now you should use that money as an investment in your future.”
“Later, when he succeeds and becomes an existence that everyone admires, you will be proud that you are his woman.”
“But…” Rolen scratched her head, finding it extremely difficult to make a decision. Besides, Rolen remembered what had just happened. Alec didn’t want to protect her, so she didn’t want to lend him money.
“Enough!” Medos shouted: “Rolen, this is an order. Lend your money to him, otherwise, I will send orders to ‘Dark Cloud’, so they can punish you.”
Rolen’s eyes were wet, as if she were about to cry. There was sadness, disappointment, and anger in her eyes.
“Okay! Okay! I agree!” Rolen said sadly.
Medos sighed: “Rolen, later you will realize that your decision today was extremely accurate and smart.”
Rolen gritted her teeth, but suddenly, she felt something and looked up at the sky.
In the distance, a blinding light appeared, but Rolen could clearly see that it was an alternating black and white stone rushing towards her.
“Ah! It’s that stone again!” Rolen glanced at Alec. She wanted to save him but didn’t want to save him at the same time.
“What the hell are you waiting for?” Medos angrily shouted: “Save him! Hurry up…”
Rolen gritted her teeth and pulled Alec away to avoid being hit by the stone.
She pulled him to a small and dirty alley and stopped, then breathed a sigh of relief.
“Weird, why did that stone come back?” Rolen muttered: “Could it be that… someone wants to kill Master?”
BAM!
An explosion rang out, and dust rose, covering the entire space. Rolen was startled when that explosion occurred right next to her.
She jumped away, keeping her distance from where the explosion came from. The dust slowly dissipated, revealing the image of Alec being hit in the back by the stone; his mouth continuously spat out blood, and he lay convulsing in the middle of a pool of blood.
“Ah! Master! You… you must really be dead this time, right?!” Rolen said hastily.
“If you’re dead, I don’t need to lend you money, right?!”
Medos: “You… you…”
“Don’t worry.” Rolen didn’t let Medos finish his sentence, so she picked up the stone that had just attacked Alec and said: “I will avenge you. This time, I will throw it far away, so far that I don’t know how far it will go.”
“Wait!” Medos quickly shouted: “That stone…”
“Yah!!!” Rolen shouted, throwing that stone with all her strength. As soon as the stone left her hand, it created a terrible pressure of air around her, then flew straight into the sky like a comet.
“Damn it! Rolen, didn’t you hear what I just said? Medos shouted angrily.
“Heh?! What did you just say?!” Rolen asked in confusion.
“I just said ‘wait’, didn’t you hear?”
“Hehehe… Sorry, I… really didn’t listen because I was so angry.”
Medos: “…”
He felt that Rolen had clearly heard him, but she didn’t pay attention to him.
“Do… Do you know what that stone is?”
“I don’t know!” Rolen replied: “I just know that the stone just injured my master, so I must take revenge.”
Medos was so angry that he wanted to spit out blood, but he was a soul, so he couldn’t spit out blood.
Of course, he knew what that stone was. After all, he had lived a long time and had read many ancient books and documents.
To become the manager of the assassin organization ‘Dark Cloud’, was not easy, and it showed that he was not an ordinary character.
Even though Medos only looked at that stone twice, he knew it was the ‘God-Demon Stone’, a stone that could help a person possess the power and authority of a god.
But… He didn’t think that Rolen wouldn’t listen to his explanation and immediately throw the stone away.
However, this is not the first or second time this has happened. So it can be understood that the stone came to Alec but was stopped by Rolen.
Medos continuously scolded the person who came up with the idea of sealing half of Rolen’s intelligence. But he realized that the person was him.
“Alright! Alright! Quickly take him to the medical room at Enchanter Tower.” Medos sighed and said, as he didn’t know what to do with Rolen anymore.
…
Lathel had finally reached the mountain in the distance. He realized that the distance from the castle to the mountain was more than 10 kilometers.
How rich must a person be to own a huge garden like this?
Perhaps he couldn’t imagine this because poverty limited his ability to imagine.
Lathel found a tree and sat down, feeling extremely comfortable.
“Lathel…”
Suddenly Cauldron spoke: “I… I feel that stone will return to you.”
“Huh!” Lathel smiled disdainfully: “Cauldron, it was just a coincidence just now. Maybe when I threw that stone into the air, it hit a bird, which is why it landed here.”
“This time is different, I threw it to a very faraway place; now, perhaps someone has taken that stone.”
“Ah! I also think that the person who got that stone is definitely a hero. Hahaha… this world will definitely be saved by that person.”
“But…” Cauldron stammered: “I don’t understand why my intuition is telling me that the stone would definitely return to you.”
Lathel laughed and said: “Hahaha… Cauldron, your intuition is completely…”
BAM!
“…wrong…” Before he could finish speaking, the stone fell in front of him. This time, the stone was only about a meter away from him.
“Hahaha…” Cauldron now laughed loudly: “Oy! I can’t hear clearly!”
“Whose intuition did you just say was wrong?”
“What did you just say? Can you say it again?”
“Oy! Oy! Oy!”
Cauldron kept talking, and Lathel gritted his teeth, feeling extremely confused.
Could it be that… his destiny was related to this stone?
No!! He didn’t want to get caught up in the gods’ troubles.
‘Wait!’ Lathel suddenly thought of a problem: ‘If I continue to throw it away, it won’t be okay. Then…’
‘Alec… he is a male protagonist. As long as I give him this stone, he can definitely use it. Thus, this stone will never return to me again.’
Lathel felt that this plan was not bad. After all, Alec is a main male character; and this stone is definitely related to him.
Therefore, he did not need to continue throwing it away. He just needed to give it to Alec, and all his problems would be solved.
After thinking carefully, Lathel felt extremely comfortable. He approached, picked up the stone, and put it in the storage space.
“Well? Have you thought carefully? Do you want to use that stone?” Cauldron said, smiling.
Lathel shrugged: “No, it’s just… I just found a solution that can deal with this stone.”
After speaking, he sat down under the tree while enjoying the fresh air of the fantasy world.
Besides, he took out the scroll that Akna had just given him and began reading.
What that scroll contained were just the rules of a normal academy. Of course, inside, there were also a few rules related to the use of magic.
This scroll also introduces many professions that students can choose to learn further inside the academy.
However, what caught Lathel’s attention the most was the change in the magic academy’s admission requirements.
This year, there will be a big change: the admissions will be divided into three rounds.
The first round is to check talent quality; all contestants must participate in this round.
However, members of large families or high-ranking nobles will be accepted even if their talents do not meet the standards.
The second round is a round to test combat ability. Contestants must find and form a team of 3 to 5 people.
Everyone will be taken to a forest and challenged inside that forest.
The content of the contest will be announced tomorrow.
And in the final round, the leaders in the second round will fight each other to choose the strongest person.
Of course, the strongest person will receive a special reward from the headmaster of Karol Magic Academy.
