Chapter 605: Chapter 19: Conclusion (3)
"There’s a ’Second Season Magic Tome’ in the library."
"That’s a forbidden book."
"Yes, but I want to take a look, or you could help me transcribe it. I only need some key Chapters. Also, I hope to borrow a laboratory for a small experiment. It might make some noise, so I’ll need your help to declare the surrounding buildings as restricted areas. In return, you’ll share the results of the experiment."
"Deal." Angel reached out to accept the amulet.
...
"This is a transcript of my mentor’s notebook, containing many unpublished contents. It’s very valuable."
"But they are all conjectures, not yet verified."
"Yes...but this is the best I can think of."
"Alright, I’ll help destroy the evidence of your magic material theft. But there should be another part here; you need to give it to me too."
"Okay, okay, I’ll find it now... Thank you."
...
"Accumulation Powder. A meditation secret tonic that can quickly enhance magic power accumulation. Although the enhancement is minimal, it’s convenient and has no side effects. It costs at least two hundred silver coins per gram in the market. I have ten grams here. It’s especially suitable for you now."
"What do you want?"
"I have a sister who wants to enter the Magic Academy. I need the exam papers, preferably with answers."
"Tell me her name, and during the exam, I will replace her paper."
...
Sunrise, sunset.
Angel quietly shuttled back and forth at the Magic Academy. Silently, countless resources gathered toward him, and he became addicted to this feeling. He even began to be infatuated.
The same power wielded by different people exerted completely different effects. It seemed that Angel controlled all the resources of the entire academy.
There was no doubt that this was corruption, a very thorough corruption and dereliction of duty. On the misguided pursuit of magic, he rushed forward, devouring everything like a black hole... And because it was conducted so covertly, there was no evidence, leaving the Teaching Affairs Bureau completely unaware.
Normally, advancing from level six to level seven magic power would take at least two years, even with Angel’s talent. However, in Silver Moon Sixth Year, June, three months after taking over the Vein Council, Angel passed the level seven magic power test.
This meant that at just thirty-six years old, and with sixty-four years before graduation, he had already reached the level of a normal graduate of the Magic Academy, capable of using third-tier magic.
In fact, Angel’s strength was greater than what appeared. He was no longer just a dual water-fire practitioner.
This speed shocked everyone.
On one hand, he firmly held the power of the Vein Council, and on the other hand, he delved into magic. His profundity in magic not only remained unaffected but was accelerated.
How should one describe it?
His mother shamed their alma mater, but in the end, it was just her own downfall, and it didn’t cause any other adverse effects.
Although his brother became a traitor to the Blood Elves, the truth was he betrayed the magic tower, not the Magic Academy. Other than some moral issues, Andrew did not cause any serious problems in the academy. This is why Barnes chose to help cover for him, even after knowing Angel was Andrew’s brother.
As for Angel...
Um... I no longer know how to evaluate him.
During this period, the oppressed students did try to unite against Angel. However, they backed the wrong horse.
At the time, the one best suited to undertake the responsibility of confronting Angel was undoubtedly Qili, who narrowly lost to Angel in the New Vascular Council President election but still had strong appeal.
However, Qili still carried the gathered evidence accusing Angel one night, secretly meeting him alone in Amos’s laboratory where Angel was experimenting.
Looking at the evidence spread across the lab bench, Angel softly asked, "What do you want?"
"You think I’m here to threaten you?" Qili smiled faintly.
"Isn’t that so?" Angel retorted.
Picking up the evidence, Qili threw them one by one into the lab’s water sink and then recited an incantation, personally burning them all.
The flame burned brightly, illuminating Angel and Qili’s faces.
Qili spread her hands and then smiled at Angel, "You’re really impressive, especially when you set Alvis up. I watched from the side. If it were me, I wouldn’t have thought of such a plan. Even if I did, I wouldn’t have had the resolve. I’ve always had a dream since I was a child, to stand with strong people, not become their enemy. You’re the strongest I’ve ever met."
Looking at the evidence already burned to ashes, Angel softly asked, "So, you want to join the Vein Council? I can arrange it."
"No, I’m not at all interested in the Vein Council. I just want to be by your side. For example, as your friend, or... lover. I’ve never heard that you have a lover, maybe you need someone to take care of you, so you can focus more on studying magic. I think... I can do it."
Angel quietly watched Qili.
Qili looked at Angel, her eyes shining like stars, filled with expectation. Her face was as red as an apple.
"Damn, she’s fallen for you. Well, strength itself is an extraordinarily attractive attribute. Female creatures also tend to choose stronger males first, this is something humans, elves, and ordinary animals have in common. But now there’s a problem." The devil beside Angel quietly complained, "If she merely wanted an alliance or benefits it would be simple, however unstable. But... you already have Sino. This is troublesome. Sino is probably the only line you won’t cross."
The wind gently blew, Qili’s long hair fluttering in the breeze, her secret affection evident.
After a long time, Angel’s lips curled slightly into a smile, and he said, "This proposal is delightful for me. In the Magic Academy, I probably won’t find a better lover than you. It’s an honor to receive your favor."
Saying so, Angel stepped forward, took Qili’s hand, and gently kissed the back of her hand: "From now on, I’ll have to trouble you to take good care of me."
Qili was so excited she almost fainted.
"Well...you’ve crossed the last line." The devil quietly lamented, "But you’re not lying, after all, you said ’in the Magic Academy’. Sino isn’t from the Magic Academy. Hahaha. I’m more confident in you than ever. There’s nothing in this world that can stop you from reaching the pinnacle of magic!"
...
You can imagine the desperation of the magic apprentices hating Angel when he defiantly strolled the campus paths holding Qili’s hand the next day.
"Dear, I made lunch for you, would you like to try it?"
"Of course."
"If it’s not good, you mustn’t laugh at me."
"That’s impossible. How could what you make not be good? I have a feeling it will be the best thing I’ve ever tasted, and I will become addicted to it."
"Really?"
The wind gently blew, and sunlight filtered through the leaves of the divine tree, casting patches of light on the Magic Academy’s pathway.
Sitting on the bench, Qili drowned in her romantic fantasy, feeding Angel with a fork bit by bit.
Angel chewed gently, smiling, quietly observing every move nearby.
"Is it good?"
"Delicious, very delicious. As it turns out, my feeling was right."
"Then I will prepare lunch for you every day?"
"That would be wonderful. Meeting you is my greatest reward in coming to the Magic Academy."
"Meeting you is also my greatest reward in coming to the Magic Academy." Qili smiled sweetly.
Gegil’s teeth ground with a crackling sound, his muscles twitching at the corners of his eyes.
Of course, Mosharili, who had long admired Angel as his companion, was equally desperate. "Tears trickled down her cheeks." "Pitter-patter," they came.
