685 A Mage’s Love Part 2 (1/2)

Saleen woke up after less than one percent of his mental strength had recovered. Sika was sitting by his side, hugging her knees and looking at him.

”Sika, do you like it?”

”Yes.”

”We are going to have a child so I must ensure your safety from now on,” Saleen blinked his eyes and held onto Sika's hands.

”What if you still want to have children with other people?”

”Other people? Who?” Saleen was confused.

”Humph, don't you realize there are a lot of women around you?” Sika pretended to be upset, but did not release Saleen's hands.

”Indeed, but all of them are not to be trifled with,” Saleen smiled and pulled Sika down to lie beside him.

”I want to change my mind,” Sika gently lay down beside Saleen.

”Change your mind?”

”I suddenly no longer want you to marry other women,” Sika said.

”Then I shall not,” Saleen replied nonchalantly.

”But you can't not. I cannot bear to see a woman like Lex married off to someone else. Humph, if she becomes your wife, won't she lose to me?” Sika asked.

Saleen was speechless. What Sika said made sense. Saleen loved Sika the most and marrying Lex would not change that. What else was he thinking for? Was there any hope between Lex and Saleen? Sika was still the best to him.

Sika turned onto her side facing Saleen and said, ”Saleen, let me tell you, it is not impossible for me to become the Nature Priestess at my age and I will lose that right if I get married. If I become the Nature Priestess, I will be able to live as long as you. Only then can I accompany you for the rest of your life. If I marry you, I will die a hundred years later and you will still have to look for other women. Why don't you let me live longer? In that case, I can still stop you from marrying anyone unsuitable.”

Although Saleen has long heard a little about the Nature Priestess, when he heard all this directly from Sika, he was still very excited and said, ”Sika, are you saying that you can live up to twelve-hundred years old?”

”No, Natural Priestess' can live longer than that. That's why you must work hard in your training and break through the grade-9 barrier. I will be very lonely after you die otherwise.”

”I will!” Saleen was agitated. ”Sika, I will go and train now…”

”What's the hurry? Lie with me.”

Saleen smiled awkwardly. His emotions had not been too stable lately. It could be due to the fact that he was already at the peak of grade-6 magic and was about to achieve a breakthrough. His emotions were affected this time around because advancing into a sorcerer would implicate the soul.

Saleen really did not do anything else on this day other than accompany and chat with Sika. When night came, Sika continued to stay in Saleen's room and this time around, Nailisi knew better than to disturb them. She was feeling a little giddy herself. After absorbing the powers of the Death Kings, she had not had time to fully digest them. By waking up prematurely, she was now unable to focus.

Nailisi had no other choice but to find time to sleep more so that she could digest the Death Kings' powers.

Without Nailisi's interruption, Saleen and Sika finally had their own private space to do whatever they wished. There had never been any doubt about Sika's physique. As for Saleen, after he sensed the balance of energies and the endless rule, his physique also improved tremendously without his knowing. The two of them made love to each other until dawn.

There were many people in the temple that did not sleep and the most excited of them all was Isabella. She and the Sregl Island mages lived on the first story. Since she had become Saleen's follower, she was allowed to use all the equipment and tools in the alchemy lab.

Isabella was Saleen's follower, but her position was not low. As the master of this city, Saleen had enough wealth to support his followers. Isabella was given two magic apprentices to serve her and four spirits of the dead to help her with dangerous experiments.

The two magic apprentices were very respectful to her. After casually asking about her privileges, it was then that Isabella realized that not only could she collect gold coins, she could also have a middle-grade magic nuclei for free every day. A middle-grade magic nuclei could allow a mage to train for an entire day.

Not only that, the lab was opened to all of Saleen's followers. There were all sorts of magic materials in there. If there was something that Isabella needed that could not be found in the store room, she would only have to inform Saleen and he would think of a way.

There was no limit to the amount of resources used up during magic experiments, but one must record magic notes to indicate the reason why the resources were used and why the experiment failed.
