His knowledge of magic theory was still too little.
How to transform magic into matter was simply an unknown subject to him.
It was a pity that he had the highest mastery of magic in the small country of Hollevin. Did he have to go elsewhere to learn?
The other side might not be willing to teach him.
Roland thought about it and used the guild chat system to contact Schuck.
Roland: ”Schuck, can you use your status to introduce me to some magic organization to study, I feel like I'm at a bottleneck.”
Schuck: ”It'll be hard, very hard!”
Roland: ”What's the matter? The Church of Light should be quite powerful in Fareins, right?”
Schuck: ”It is very strong, but the influence of the Association of Mages in Fareins is not bad either. Most importantly, just half a month ago, our Holy Lady mashed the chairman of the Association of Mages' son's family jewels, leaving him with mental trauma, and even though it was healed with magic, he can't seem to get it hard again. Now the relationship between the two forces is extremely poor, and if I introduced you… you'd probably be out of luck.”
Fine. Roland sighed. The path of networking from Schuck's side was pretty much cut off.
He could only go to Fareins to try his luck.
Roland told the two women what he was thinking.
Vivian was a little disappointed, but she decided to stay and help Roland manage the Magic Tower and the magic academy.
Andonara put her arms around Roland and said in a clingy manner, ”I don't care, you have to take me with you this time.”
All right, I'll take Andonara this time.
After all, even if he went to Fareins, he might not be able to join the Association of Mages, as even the Association of Mages in Hollevin was wary of foreigners joining.
Although Fareins was a large country, it was quite xenophobic.
In their view, only the people of their own country were inherently civilized.
The people from other countries were all barbarians.
Of course, except for those who believed in the Goddess of Light.
Roland went to speak with his friends again.
Li Lin and the others waved boldly, ”Just feel free to go on your honeymoon with the queen. We'll keep a good eye on things for you in Delpon, now that we're almost back on our feet.”
Now that almost two months had passed, Li Lin and the others had finally eased up from their previous ”sage”[1] state.
As far as Roland knew, Li Lin and the others hadn't picked up girls or had any negative-distance contact with them in reality in the past two months, so they were probably really disgusted.
Even their real lives had been affected.
Roland and Andonara hired a carriage and wandered slowly in the direction of Fareins.
As for safety, that was even less of an issue.
A Legendary Great Swordsman with a Hero's bloodline, and fully equipped with magic equipment.
There was also an immortal Golden Son.
Under these circumstances, only more than two Legends could pose a threat to them.
Of course, they naturally encountered some small thieves along the way, most of which were cut into pieces by Andonara. A few who didn't have much of an evil aura were let go after one of their hands was cut off.
Roland didn't have a chance to make a move.
Andonara was too fast.
As soon as Roland gestured to flick his fingers to cast a spell, all the enemies within thirty meters in front of him would instantly be severed in two.
The Great Swordsman was strong in this aspect, fast enough to almost rival a thief, and with a special wide-range sword aura.
Fast and furious.
They also had good magic resistance, and normally, a Mage of the same level couldn't beat a Great Swordsman.
After more than a month of traveling and stopping, Roland and Andonara both finally entered the borders of Fareins.
He wasted no time in communicating with the local Magic Towers in each new city he visited.
However, almost all of them rejected him, and those who were occasionally willing to communicate with him harbored ulterior motives.
For example, they wanted to deceive Roland into some very special contract before they were willing to communicate.
But when Roland took a look at it with Character Proficiency, he found that this contract was full of traps.
He immediately left.
There was even a Magic Tower chairman who had his eye on Andonara and wanted to exchange ten beautiful slave girls for her.
Then Roland and Andonara beat him up together.
As a result, by the end of the night, the Mage had gathered a gang of men and tried to snatch Andonara.
And he was quite intent on killing Roland.
Then the Magic Tower of this border city was flattened by a large fireball from Roland.
The group of men with killing intent was also gone.
This was just a small episode for Roland.
He gradually discovered that the closer he got to the capital of Fareins, the more he advanced deeper into the country, the more discrimination and malice both he and Andonara were subjected to.
Because the two of them weren't from Fareins.
When they entered the country, they took an entry card.
Roland couldn't stand the situation and wanted to go to the Guild of Mercenaries to spend money and get fake Fareins citizenship.
However, the man from the Guild of Mercenaries arrogantly rejected Roland. ”Sorry, the citizenship of Fareins isn't open to barbarians.”
Roland was so furious that he wanted to hit someone.
In the end, Roland and Andonara had to return to Delpon the way they came.
After all, even if he obtained fake citizenship, he still might not be able to join the Association of Mages in Fareins.
Mages weren't stupid and Roland reckoned that the Association of Mages would investigate him if he wanted to join.
