818 Strong Medicine for a Solid Foundation Part 2 (1/2)
”You should let Sika rest. She is about to give birth and you are still bringing her around with you!” Although Jason was happy, he was not going to let that stop him from reprimanding Saleen. It was not easy for mages to have offspring because of their physique and because most mages did not have the time to marry and settle down. They often found training in magic to be more enjoyable than having relationships.
Sika was still clad in armor, but her armor was light and could change its form and was not clumsy at all. She shook her head and said, ”Teacher Jason, I want to accompany Saleen.”
Jason was taken aback, but he was even happier to hear that. Sika's personality was different from Lex. She said whatever came to her mind and it would not make anyone feel awkward.
Jason did not say more and only nodded at Saleen. Saleen cast a water shield. As the huge bubble gradually sank down, he let Sika lean against it as if it was a cushion used by noble families.
No one else was in the room except Jason, Sika, and Saleen. Jason said to Saleen, ”Tell me, what kind of trouble have you encountered?”
Saleen's heart was warm. He thought carefully and said, ”Teacher, some of my problems cannot be said.”
The bond that he had signed with the Goddess and the thing that he promised Fyrco were all related to bonds, so he would have to handle them on his own. If he spoke about them to anyone and the bond counteracted, it would be a matter of life and death.
”Then say those that can be said.” Jason did not mind. Mages were often restricted by rules. Saleen's status was different by then, it was normal for him to have more secrets.
Saleen stretched out both his hands, where a green glow emanated from them. Saleen said, ”I possess some life strength from the Nature Goddess. To the Holy See, this is something that must be eliminated. As a result, the Holy See and I will always be in dispute, without any possibility of resolution.”
”No need for resolution. If the Holy See wants to take you down, then you will just have to defeat them first,” Jason replied directly and decisively.
Saleen was stunned for a moment, but immediately smiled. When his own teacher was still at grade-5, he had challenged a grade-6 mage, who had his own magic tower, because the latter had destroyed the graves of the former's clan. Not everyone possessed such audacity. In fact, very few people would have done the same.
Sika laid there and said, ”There are no good souls in the Holy See. Teacher is right. We might as well overthrow the Holy See. When you built a temple instead of a magic tower as your living quarters, you must have already thought of that as well!”
Although Sika had been trained by a group of mages on her style of speech, it was still difficult to adjust. When she spoke, it did not sound cohesive, but the meaning was clear.
Saleen thought about it and said, ”Lex has given the mark of the six-winged flying snake to me. Although I cannot really use it to summon the Grukos clan's forces to fight for me, it would be a cause for concern for anyone that wanted to deal with me. I'm worried that this might trigger Prince Safilos into wanting to make an attempt for my life. He is a golden grand swordmaster. Once he gets close to me, no one can protect me.”
”Safilos… we cannot touch him for now. If he dies, Qin will be in chaos immediately. At most, you will stay in Metatrin City and not go to Holy Rock City. By staying here, no one will be able to touch you, not even the old freak in Holy Rock City,” Jason replied.
”Teacher, you know Joey?”
”Humph, the most powerful person in Holy Rock City. It has been a few hundred years. That fellow once killed many people in Alchemy City. He had to flee all the way to Holy Rock City in order to survive.”
”Back then, he was not even grade-10 yet right?” Saleen probed.
”Hmm, back then, he was only at grade-8,” Jason replied monotonously.
Daring to challenge Alchemy City at grade-8, Joey had left Saleen speechless. It seemed like Joey had not continued this enmity. Based on his current abilities at grade-10, even if he would not be able to attack all the way into Alchemy City, just blocking the entrance of the city would have posed a headache to Alchemy City. If no one was able to enter or leave the city, its reputation would have taken a severe hit.
”Teacher, Nailisi is a demon. She can summon her demon army to fight for me.” Now that his teacher was there, there was nothing else that Saleen would hold back on. If Jason refused to support him, then there was no one else he could depend on anymore.
”A Demon army!” It was the first time Jason looked so shocked. He did not respond that way even when Saleen mentioned how he was at odds with the Holy See.
”Teacher, is it really inappropriate?” Saleen was worried.
”Not inappropriate. It's just that our abilities are… still too weak.” Jason became quiet.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.
Saleen was confused by what his teacher said. From what he could see, there were more than thirty sorcerers in Metatrin City then. 'Weak' was not something he would associate with the city anymore.
”The Demon dimension is the closest dimension to the Myers Mainland, closer than even the death dimension. Saleen, humans are becoming stronger, but demons are no exception either. If we do not control the situation well, those demons can very well pose a dangerous threat to Metatrin City.”
