Chapter 558 Cats and Cats

After Roland flashed away, the Priest ran off in the opposite direction.

Everybody in the stream channel was disappointed.

There were no more dramas to watch… The netizens were always pa.s.sionate about gossip, or famous stars’ visits to hair salons wouldn’t have been trending topics for days.

The Priest thanked those who tipped him again and then ended the stream.

The viewers, who hadn’t fully expressed themselves yet, all went to the forum. Then all kinds of posts about Roland, the angel, and love appeared.

For example:

One nuclear bomb to destroy the nest along with the BOSS and the inferior monsters: do Mages really not need nerfing?

I strongly demand that the top Mages be nerfed and the rookie Mages be buffed, so that their gap won’t be so huge!

I’m also a Mage, but I’m as different from Roland as a man is from a dog.

Such posts were all complaining about the cla.s.s imbalance.

There were certain other posts that were purely gossip. “I came to her first”: a lesson on how to pick up angels.

Why does Roland keep getting such super beautiful girls who have n.o.ble ident.i.ties?

What exactly did Roland do to him to make an innocent angel fall to darkness?

Some other threads went like this:

A rational a.n.a.lysis on the nature of Roland’s bricks.

What kind of revolution will elementization bring to Mages?

Loss of fatal weaknesses: Elementization turns the game into one where nothing but stats matter.

Whatever the posts were about, Roland became the center of attention on the forum again.

Many people even made auto-tune videos for him.

It almost became a carnival for the netizens.

Roland didn’t know any of that. He had teleported back to the Red Magic Tower.

He was complaining to the Great Elder. “I’ve killed the First Princess’s ex-husband, but Great Elder, the black angel was still there treating his wounds. I almost couldn’t make it back.”

Alfred the Great Elder was dealing with school affairs while he listened to Roland.

He was so shocked to hear what Roland said that he accidentally left a scratch on the paper. He frowned and said, “We know very well how strong the black angel is. We only managed to escape when someone sacrificed themselves. How did you get back?” “With the help of another angel!”

The Great Elder’s eyes widened. “Was it a he or a she?”

“A she!”

Huh?

Alfred eyed Roland up and down. “This is uncanny. You don’t look very handsome to me, but why are so many women attracted to you? Not just your queen, even Stephanie has let you take charge of her territory. Now you’ve picked up an angel too? Can you teach me how to do that? I’d like to keep a Life Angel by my side.”

Roland said helplessly, “Great Elder, can we be serious?”

“Hahahaha.” The Great Elder laughed in delight. “You don’t have much sense of humor, which is not very good. It’s already a stereotype that Mages are sullen and rigid. I don’t want the younger generation to remain like that.”

Roland couldn’t help but roll his eyes. “Great Elder, there isn’t really much I can do when everybody is behaving that way.”

Actually, just like Roland said, most Mages were so addicted to magic that they were emotionally and socially impaired. Every day, they were either studying magic or on their way to do so.

Their character wouldn’t change until they made great progress in magic and traveled the world for a while.

For those who were smart, they wouldn’t be really bad at socialization.

It was just that the Mages never bothered chit-chatting with others. Wasn’t it more fun to study magic than to discuss the girl that a certain n.o.ble recently scored or the unmarried lady who got pregnant? Also, on many occasions, they might suddenly have an inspiration about magic during their conversation with others, and then they would immediately leave.

It was also the reason why the Mages came across to everybody as condescending and temperamental loners.

Hearing that, the Great Elder smiled and said, “In that case, I won’t force you to do anything. Although you didn’t bring back the angel’s blood, it’s fine. Our main objective was to kill the First Princess’s ex-husband, which you have accomplished. You’ve also survived the hunt of a DemiG.o.d. Your eyes were opened, so we achieved both our purposes.”

Roland was rather touched as he listened.

He found that the Red Magic Tower was very nice to him.

Although it was nothing on the surface, many resources had been subtly delivered to him without drawing much attention.

Was the Red Magic Tower intentionally grooming him?

Though he understood it well, Roland showed no feelings on his face. He said, “Great Elder, I’ll be leaving, if that’s all.”
