Celestial Mage

Chapter 27 Genius or Crazy

The next morning.

Hound House Inn.

Perhaps it was because he felt that he had found a sympathetic person, and Harrick felt much calmer.

At breakfast, when he finished packing the work at hand and sat next to Xia Bolai, he was already able to speak calmly.

"Let's say it first, if you two have no place to live, you can always live with me."

"But 10 crowns is only enough for three months of daily necessities. After three months, you will have to fend for yourself."

Xia Bolai pulled a large piece of wheat cake, chewed it, and said with a muffled voice from the batter: "Don't worry, I will be summoned by my wife soon, when the time comes."

His words became softer and quieter, until finally, he was completely silent.

Because both Harrick and Rosen looked at him with a mocking smile, as if they were saying: "Make it up~ Make it up hard, who would believe it?" ! '

"Uncle, I already know everything."

"Hmm~" Xia Bolai's fat face with beards showed a rare blush, and his head was lowered, not daring to meet Rosen's gaze.

After a pause, Rosen said again: "Uncle, I remember that we picked up a piece of mithril back then, so it should be able to handle emergencies?"

Unexpectedly, Xia Bolai blushed even more, his head was almost hanging down in his crotch, and he was pinching the wheat cake with both hands, and kneaded the cake into a ball.

Seeing his appearance like a child who made mistakes, Rosen sighed again.

"Did you take care to erase the imprint on Mithril when trying to please the girl?"

Xia Bolai nodded again and again.

"Yes, yes, I chopped that thing into pieces, and kneaded it into a ball again, so that no one will be able to see the original appearance."

In this case, Rosen felt relieved.

He sat up straight, knocked on the table with a spoon, and coughed lightly.

"I know that it is impossible for me to learn magic with my wife. But I still believe that, uncle, you are a good person who keeps your promise."

These words are sincere. Although he has bad habits, Chapolei is not bad in nature, can reason, and will try his best to keep his promises.

You can talk to each other, but you must be very cautious when entrusting important tasks.

Xia Bolai seemed to grasp a life-saving straw and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I am indeed a good person. Although I have done some bad things, I am still good overall."

"Silvermoon Castle is a big city, and there are a lot of official mages who have settled here. Uncle, you must be able to find a reliable mentor for me, right?"

"That's natural. That's natural. Although it's a bit difficult, I promise, I can do it. Just. Just"

"Just what?" Rosen asked.

Xia Bolai didn't speak, and lowered his head, not daring to look at Luo Sen.

Harrick spoke the answer for him: "Just need money, lots and lots of money."

Rosen wasn't surprised at all, he just asked Xia Bolai to tell him so that he would feel guilty.

He stared closely at Xia Bolai's eyes, and said seriously: "Uncle, we earned the 200 crowns back then, right?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Don't say half, at least a quarter is my credit, right?"

"Well~ Actually, without you, we wouldn't be able to get that money at all."

Xia Bolai has a conscience.

"But you've spent all my money now, too, and it's all on women and wine."

Xia Bolai covered his head with both hands.

"Don't say it, don't say it, I will try my best to help you find a spell instructor! But money is really a problem. If there is no money, no official mage is willing to spend time teaching apprentices."

Harrick also nodded: "Those formal mages are all very shrewd, no, they're not shrewd, they're just blind to money!"

What if I don't have money?
Of course it is to find a way to make money.

Rosen asked, "How much will it cost?"

"Well~~ For the basic enlightenment, at least 300 crowns. The cost of books starts from 100 crowns, and then you have to share various chores at the tutor's house."

Luo Sen knew it in his mind: "Okay, then let's continue selling paintings to make money."

He said 'we' because he had to rely on Xia Bolai's protection, because the other party was a high-ranking samurai, whose surname was Omisia.

If not, selling his paintings would be equivalent to a child holding money to go to the market, and it would be tantamount to seeking his own death.

And when he heard about selling paintings, Xia Bolai's eyes lit up immediately, and he clapped his hands vigorously: "That's right! How could I have forgotten such an important thing. Your kid is a good painter, why don't you worry about money?"

"Uncle, it's my ability to make money, it's not your reason to play tricks!"

"Yes, yes, you just need to put 120 hearts at ease. I will assign you to find a mentor this time."

While talking, Xia Bolai seemed to think of something, and suddenly slapped his forehead hard, and a strange light appeared in those big eyes.

"Hey~~~~Hey~~~~I promise, I will definitely be able to find a mentor for you, maybe I can save a lot of money."

Rosen didn't know why, but his instincts felt bad.

Harrick guessed his thoughts at once: "Xia Bolai, you don't intend to find her, do you?"

Rosen quickly asked: "Her? Who is she?"

Harrick had already started shaking his head again and again.

"Xia Bolai, this is definitely a bad idea! That woman is an out-and-out lunatic! She will bring Rosen down!"

Xia Bolai didn't take it seriously, he waved his fat hand: "Don't worry. If it is replaced by someone else, it will indeed lead to bad. But Luo Sen is not an ordinary person, he is very clear-headed!"

Regarding this point, although Harrick has not known Rosen for a long time, he also feels the same, but he still doesn't think it is a good idea.

"I think it's better to be cautious. My life has been ruined by you. I don't want to see that young man Rosen has no bright future."

Xia Bolai ignored him and turned to look at Rosen.

"If there is a genius middle-level mage as your mentor, and may not charge your tuition fees, and this mentor is extremely beautiful, extremely coquettish, and may even have sex with you for fun, would you like it?"

When he said these words, Xiapolei had a greasy face, and his big eyes gleamed with deep obsession, as if he was imagining the scene of having sex with that female mage.

Rosen heard a black line on his forehead: "Uncle, I'm looking for a mentor, not a prostitute!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, if you want to go to bed, of course she won't force you. As far as the previous conditions are concerned, are you willing?"

Rosen asked intently: "So, what is the price?"

Harrick laughed as soon as he heard it: "Very good, very good, now I am relieved, you really are not easy to deceive, kid."

As soon as a guest came, he got up and went to entertain him.

With the presence of outsiders, Xia Bolai also lowered his voice: "The price is that this mentor has a different personality from ordinary people. He often says some inexplicable words and does some inexplicable things."

"Sometimes, it's even a little scary. Sure, it's just scary, but there's no real danger."

"for example?"

"For example, she would spend the whole day repeatedly fiddling with several pieces of transparent glass. She kept saying that the world is not real, but just a dream."

"I also said that I think, therefore I am, and I am, so the world exists. What else does the world have meaning when the eyes are opened, and the world is turned into darkness when the eyes are closed."

"In short, although she is a magic genius, she has a big problem with her brain designation."

After listening, Rosen remained silent.

Xia Bolai asked: "How is it? Give me a message."

"Let's leave it to her, and trouble uncle."

A middle-level mage, and has a unique way of thinking, either a genius or a lunatic, if he is willing to teach spells, he will definitely gain a lot.

Xia Bolai clapped her hands vigorously: "Then it's settled. I'll go find her after I finish eating."

He tore the wheatbread in his hand, stuffed it all into his mouth in one breath, then took a big gulp of ale, chewed hard a few times, and swallowed it down.

"Hi~~ I'll go find her right away. Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention something."

Xia Bolai looked at Rosen, and there was another flicker in his eyes.

"Let's say it first, I can only try my best to persuade her, it doesn't mean success."

"If she agrees, maybe there is no tuition fee, but as an apprentice, it is your basic obligation to support the mentor and let the mentor have a decent life."

"So, we still need to work hard to make money."

Rosen nodded: "I see, that mage is also poor, right?"

Xia Bolai scratched her head in embarrassment: "Hehe~hehe~~ After all, no one likes dealing with lunatics, right?"

After a pause, she continued: "That woman also likes painting, she said that painters are the creators of the imaginary world."

"You can try to please her with your paintings. As long as she is happy, she will forget all the worldly taboos."

Rosen nodded to express his understanding: "I remember."

"Alright then, I'll find her right now."

Xia Bolai drank the rest of the ale in one gulp, and hurriedly left the Hound House.
