Chapter 1837: Do You Want To Learn Magic from Me?
“RBQ[1. A Chinese Internet slang which means the kind of person one cannot afford to offend.]”RBQ, RBQ…”
Mag cocked his eyebrows, and stopped asking in case the system decided to abandon itself to despair.
However, since the system had already told him a possibly viable solution, he would make a trip to the Staro Sea in the northeast of the Roth Empire with Annie after he finished his work in the next two days.
Mag retracted his thoughts, and began to secretly use a cultivation method to circulate in his body.
He accidentally made himself into a demigod that day when he used the tribulation lightning to strike the octopus.
However, according to the system, he had cheated on his way to become a god. If it weren’t for Bro Octopus who undertook the majority part of the tribulation lightning, Mag would have died right on the spot.
Maybe it was because of that, but he didn’t have rays of light when he raised his hands, and no flower petals lay on his path when he walked. Obviously, he didn’t receive any special effects package from God.
Besides, his power was indeed beyond the 10th-tier, and had already entered another level.
However, this difference wasn’t that great that a 10th-tier powerhouse was only like an ant to him. The difference was perhaps like he could take on 10 of them at the same time.
Of course, if he chose to cheat from afar, and use a flying sword to kill his enemies, he could kill as many as he wished.
After having a nap, Mag brought Annie to shop around, and they walked around the square. Mag bought candied haws for the little one, and went to the Delicacy Extravaganza’s area that was under construction. He found the stall that Robert arranged for him.
Robert gave him a lot of respect. Mamy Restaurant’s stall was right in the center of the exhibition hall, and it was double the size of the stall next to it. Moreover, a signboard was custom-made for it. The workers were installing it right now, and they could see it from afar.
They happened to see Xixi giving the two birds a bath when they returned.
Black Coal’s burnt feathers had already grown back a little, but it still looked rather ugly.
Green Pea was still as smug as ever, and it was combing through its feathers with its beak after its bath. The bright green feathers glowed under the sunlight.
“Hi, little girl, I am the honorable Fama Odin Ben. I see that you have special bone structure, and you should excel at martial arts. I have a book— Mmmm…” Black Coal was interrupted by a handkerchief that covered its head.
“Boss Mag, Annie. Did you guys go shopping?” Xixi asked smilingly.
“Yes. I brought Annie out for a bit of fresh air.” Mag nodded with a smile. He suddenly halted when he was about to leave. He looked at Xixi with a hesitant expression.
Xixi tossed Black Coal back into the cage, and asked Mag, “What’s the matter, Boss Mag?”
“I will have to trouble you for one thing, Xixi.” Mag nodded.
“Let’s talk inside,” Xixi said smilingly, and entered the magic potion shop with the basin.
Mag brought Annie into the shop.
“It’s like this. Annie is interested in magic, but I don’t know what kind of magic she is suitable for. Therefore, I would like to ask you to help me do some tests on her,” Mag said to Xixi directly after she put down the basin.
The nature magic was equally amazing compared to life magic, and only Xixi and Lulu knew nature magic now. Hence, he would like Xixi to check if Annie could practice nature magic.
“Oh, I see,” Xixi replied meaningfully. Mag had brought Annie to her two days ago, asking her to help treat Annie’s mutism. However, the life magic had no effect on her mutism, so they had to give up.
She rather liked this quiet little maiden. She was at a lively age, but she couldn’t talk, so it was rather heartbreaking.
Besides life magic, she was also a water magic caster. As a 7th-tier magic caster, it was a piece of cake for her to test if an ordinary person was suitable to learn magic or not.
“Annie, give me your hand,” Xixi said to Annie smilingly, and held her hand gently. A small green tree suddenly blinked in the middle of Xixi’s palm, and rays of green light beams engulfed their hands.
Xixi closed her eyes. After a while, she suddenly opened her eyes, and stared at Annie with disbelief.
Mag knew that she was most probably shocked by Annie’s vast knowledge storage. However, he still asked expectantly, “Can she cultivate?”
“Annie’s situation is very unique. She has an unbelievable knowledge storage that is even vaster than mine. The word ‘genius’ isn’t even enough to describe her.” Xixi nodded. “However, she doesn’t seem to be able to practice water magic, but she seems to have an affinity with my nature magic.”
“So, she can practice nature magic?” Mag raised his eyebrows. This was useful information.
“Please wait for a moment. I’ll go get Lord Urien here to take a look. My ability is limited,” Xixi said before she hurried away. Soon after, Urien followed her out.
“Teacher Urien.” Mag nodded at Urien.
“Boss Mag.” Urien nodded too, but his gaze was on Annie. His eyes lit up, and he lightly tapped a finger at Annie’s glabella. Circles of ripples slowly extended outwards.
“She has such a vast knowledge storage even though she hasn’t started cultivating!” Urien was shocked, but he soon regretfully said, “It’s a pity that she doesn’t have any reaction to ice magic. Seems like she isn’t able to practice ice magic.”
Urien retracted his finger, and said to Mag, “If this girl manages to find the type of magic that is suitable for her to cultivate, she will become great if given time.”
Annie inched closer to Mag. Although she knew this old gentleman wasn’t a bad guy, she still felt a little afraid.
Xixi hesitated briefly before saying, “Master, when I checked on Annie earlier, I discovered that she seems to have an affinity for my nature magic. Can we let her try to cultivate nature magic?”
“There’s no problem if you’re willing to let her learn from you.” Urien nodded. The nature magic was the secret magic of the dryads, and Xixi and Lulu were the only dryads left now.
“I will do my best to impart nature magic to Annie if she wants to learn from me.” Xixi smiled at Annie. “The dryads are already in decline. If we’re going to abide by the rules in the past without making any changes, nature magic is going to disappear sooner or later. That will be the real loss.
“What do you think, Mr. Mag?” Xixi turned to ask Mag. She knew Mag had adopted Annie, so he was considered to be her parent.
“It will be for the best if Xixi is willing to take Annie as your disciple.” Mag nodded. Both the nature magic and the life magic were a secret magic created by the dryads through the World Tree.
Annie was kind and gentle, so she fitted in with the way of nature very well. Of course he was willing to let her learn nature magic.
Xixi held Annie’s hand, and asked smilingly, “Annie, do you want to learn magic from me?”
Annie looked at Xixi’s gentle smile, and then she, too, smiled and nodded hard.
