My Magic Age

If the long street in the imperial capital is compared to an intricate spider web, then Yulin Street is the longitude of the spider web, and Lakeside Avenue is the smallest latitude of the spider web.

The aristocratic circle in the upper class of the imperial capital is actually also an intricate network of relationships. The interests of the nobles are entangled in it, just like countless circles are put together. The royal family, wealthy nobles, lords of all sizes, and countless small nobles weave a web of life.

Prince James is now the younger brother of His Majesty Charles, and the most determined supporter of the highest authority in the empire. The South Wind Legion in James's hands is one of the two most powerful legions in the Green Empire. The main force of this legion is currently concentrated on the sea of ​​Haiyinsi City. James only brought out five constructed knights this time, showing the posture of a strong army on the Kenda plane. This made the nobles of all sizes in the imperial capital remember that this prince is still trusted by His Majesty Charles and has a force that cannot be underestimated.

Just as the people of the imperial capital were discussing, a group of arrogant inscription masters cast fire magic on Prince James' daughter and son-in-law and knocked them to the stone floor. This incident has become a topic of interest in the streets, but many people in the aristocratic circle are very troubled by this, mainly because everyone has common interests, and the dominant power is in the hands of Prince James. In order to ensure that the relationship with James will not deteriorate, many nobles have expressed their opinions silently, and everyone has taken some actions to show their positions.

The first to take action was the Junior Magic Academy. The dean and the president of the Imperial Capital Magic Newspaper have been friends for many years. He immediately found his friend to complain, complaining that the president of the magic newspaper should not have posted this photo to the Imperial Capital Magic Newspaper. If Prince James is unhappy because of Princess Ying Li's incident, the newspaper and the academy have an unshirkable responsibility. Because the incident happened at the gate of the Imperial Capital Junior Magic Academy, as a graduate of the current magic class of the academy, the academy still has the obligation to protect Princess Ying Li within the academy.

On the other hand, the court magicians serving the Angelbold royal family, knowing that Prince James had returned to the imperial capital, attended the dinner of His Majesty Charles on the first day, made proper arrangements for the knights of the Constructed Knights stationed in the imperial capital on the second day, and attended the celebration dinner of the South Wind Knights that night. On the third day, they specially prepared a dinner to entertain me, and they knew Prince James' attitude towards me very clearly. This dinner was his way of showing the royal family and the nobles of the imperial capital that he recognized the relationship between me and Princess Yingli.

So when someone proposed in the House of Magic Guild that I prepare another "exhibition of the life magic pattern of the fish skin hood", the first to stand up and oppose were precisely these magicians who were eager to show their position to Prince James.

Then the two vice presidents of the Royal Magic Academy and the Imperial Capital Magic Research Institute expressed their opposition to this proposal.

Before this, there was news in the magic newspapers. Many people believed that the reason why the Magic Union made such harsh demands on me was because the academy and the research institute did not protect me. This was why an excellent young magician, who had just made a little achievement in magic academics, faced the tragic fate of being exploited by the Magic Union. This negative news had damaged the positive image of the academy and the research institute, so they all stood up this time.

Then there were the magicians representing various local forces. They often had a good relationship with the Grand Duke of a certain province. Although these magicians were far from reaching half of the seats in the House of Representatives, some great magicians who were on good terms with them at the time also followed them to express their positions.

In addition to certain human factors, it was mainly because the only people who benefited from the "Life Magic Pattern" on this fish skin hood were the group of inscription masters in the Green Empire.

Many magicians who did not get any benefits from this matter stood up and said that they did not need to give those inscription masters a chance, because if they could not learn, they would not learn, and they would still not learn even if they had more chances.

Some magicians did not want to get into trouble, so they decisively chose to give up the vote. In this way, the second final vote of the House of Magic Guild on the proposal of "Life Magic Pattern on Fish Skin Hood" failed because the number of people in favor did not reach half, so no one was willing to mention the matter of "Life Magic Pattern on Fish Skin Hood" anymore.

…

Sitting in the magic caravan, I heard Alia telling me vividly about the things in the House of Magic Guild. This information was obtained from many channels. Although there were many different opinions, the final result was only one, that is, the proposal to hold a demonstration meeting for "Life Magic Pattern on Fish Skin Hood" was not passed.

Alia's eyes became bright. She leaned lazily on the sofa, stretching her waist like a Persian cat, and said to me: "Recently, I always hear that a certain inscription master in the imperial capital has successfully drawn a fish skin hood with the magical effect of "enhancing mental power" through the practice of hundreds of fish skin hoods. However, there has been no news afterwards, and it seems that no one talks about the price of fish skin hoods. The purchase price of fish skin hoods in the magic market has been hovering between 1,800 and 2,000 magic crystals. As long as a fish skin hood is drawn with the life magic pattern, the price will increase a thousand times. There is no business more violent than this. Otherwise, you should stay in the imperial capital and make fish skin hoods honestly in the future!"

"If the fishskin hood remains at this price, how many magicians in the imperial capital do you think would be willing to buy it back?" I blinked and asked her.

Her eyes were very beautiful when she was thinking, and she smiled and said to me: "There should be a lot of them! At least those inscription masters want to buy one."

I shook my head and disagreed with Aaliyah's point of view, saying: "That's because they haven't experienced more failures. I believe that a large number of those inscription masters will give up soon."

Aaliya stretched her feet on Betty's legs and asked her personal maid to help her knead them. The crystal high heels she wore looked beautiful, but they were actually the most harmful to her feet. She would feel very tired after just a few steps. .

She gently lifted up her long skirt, revealing her round calves like white lotus roots. She lay on the soft leather sofa, leaning her upper body back as far as she could while saying, "So...the production cost of those fish skin hoods would be... Come down?"

I thought about it seriously and said to Aaliya: "Of course not. The biggest cost of this kind of fish skin hood is caused by too many failures during the production process. I can't explain what kind of subtlety it is." It feels like it’s difficult anyway.”

I am actually quite conflicted. On the one hand, I feel that the price of a fish skin hood with one thousand eight magic crystals is a bit high. Such a hat is simply not worth the money. On the other hand, I feel that the process of making a fish skin hood is actually quite difficult, and it is impossible for ordinary inscription masters to learn it so easily.

I turned my head and glanced at the long street outside the car window. Golden leaves hung on the street trees, giving the street scene an irresistibly desolate beauty.

I sighed and said, "Maybe one day, someone will completely understand the life magic pattern on the fish-man skin. Maybe then, the cost of making the fish-skin hood will come down."

"Is it so difficult to make a fishskin hood?" Alia asked me in surprise. She didn't understand.

yes! Many people in the imperial capital didn't understand, otherwise the fishskin hood turmoil wouldn't have become so big.

So Alia finally asked the question.

Alia asked me: "Then how did you do it?"

She added: "I heard that you made thirty fish skin hoods in a row at the demonstration. If you hadn't made them so easily, I guess they wouldn't have been so big."

Probably those people who sat in the lecture theater and watched me draw the fish skin hood had this question in their minds.

I spread my hands and shrugged, and said to Aaliya: "My situation is quite special. How should I put it... As long as I can successfully draw any magic pattern structure once, then I will rarely be able to draw it again. Failure, you can think of this as my talent!”

Aaliya smiled and said to me: "Anyway, the life magic pattern on the fish skin hood this time has completely disgraced the inscription masters in the imperial capital. I guess they will hate you!"

Hearing what Aaliya said, I could only smile helplessly: "I have long been used to it. At the Royal Academy of Magic, my relationship with the Academy's Inscription Society was very tense. Alas! Now I have offended her again. All the inscription masters in the imperial capital are really unwise!”

At this time, Aaliya suddenly sat up, put her hands on the table, crossed her hands on her fair chin, and then asked me: "Recently, there is a news about you in the aristocratic circle of the imperial capital, saying that you are a man with deep secrets." The invisible therapist?”

I said, "I happened to save a few people."

Aaliya looked at me with wide eyes: "For example..."

When she is serious, her big eyes are always so bright.

"Marquis Zak, son of the Duke of Samoyed," I said.

She stared at me and said, "And..."

"Duke Jingyue." I said.

She took a breath of cold air and opened her mouth in surprise, like a fish lacking oxygen in a pond.

She said to me: "Then the rumors are all true. No wonder the magicians in Durva and Shloit provinces will spare no effort to help you."

I really want to ask her what the rumors say.

At this time, the magic caravan suddenly slowed down and stopped on the side of the road. Betty looked out from the window, and then said to Aaliya: "Master, here we are!"

Betty opened the carriage door, and the coachman outside opened the folding ladder at the door. I walked down first, and then helped Aaliya down.

Only then did I have the opportunity to look at this luxurious-looking leather shop on the roadside. The entire leather shop is actually a three-story building facing the street, and the entire first floor is decorated as a shop facing the street. From the transparent glass window, you can see inside Look, the shop is actually filled with neat leather armors.

There were several magic caravans parked at the door of the shop. Nobles walked into the leather shop one after another, and some people walked out of the shop talking and laughing. It could be seen that the business of this leather shop was very prosperous, and this shop was owned by Ai Recommended by Liya, we came here today not to choose leather armor, but to look at the white rock rhinoceros skin we ordered.

Alia ordered a batch of high-grade leather from White Rock Rhino half a month ago. The leather shop happened to send a message yesterday saying that the leather from White Rock Rhino had arrived, so we came here. White Rock Rhino is an early level 3. Earth-type monster. The biggest feature of Earth-type monsters is that they have strong skin and thick flesh, and they are born with earth-type magic. It is said that an angry White Rock Rhino can knock down a ten-meter-thick wall. An adult White Rock Rhino weighs about thirty tons. The rhino horns on their heads can be up to three meters long. I heard that many magic airships and five-masted sailboats have a white rock rhino horn embedded in the front of the ramming horn on the front deck.

Not only is the rhino horn of the White Rock Rhino popular, but its rhino skin is also very good hard armor skin, which is popular with many heavy-armored knights.

Alia took me into the leather shop. When the waiter at the door saw Alia coming in, he immediately greeted her and bowed to her respectfully, then said familiarly: "Madam Alia, the master has been waiting for a long time, please follow me."

We did not stay in the hall on the first floor filled with various leather armors, but followed the waiter directly to the second floor. The second floor was obviously much more spacious, and the room was full of a leather smell. Even if the windows on all sides of the room were open, this pungent smell was lingering. There were all kinds of leather samples hanging on the walls of the entire second floor, and I could not recognize many Warcraft leathers.

On one wall, I saw a complete fur of the Earth Storm Bear, the leather of the Salamander, and the leather of the Wind Wolf. These familiar Warcraft reminded me of the days when I traveled with the caravan in the New West Asia Qis Mountains in my childhood. Hey, it can’t be said to be traveling, it should be more appropriate to say that it is wandering around with the caravan.

On the other wall, I also saw leather from two-headed fire lizards, swamp crocodile leather, wind snake leather, night blade leopard leather, etc. These are the leathers I can name, and there are more leathers that I can't recognize. This leather workshop is really powerful. There is no leather armor on the entire second floor. It is a place to select leather. In the hall on the second floor, I saw some nobles standing in front of a piece of leather and discussing the leather on the wall with the waiter in the workshop.

The waiter pushed open a door and motioned us to go in, but he stayed outside.

Alia nodded to me and walked in with me.

As soon as I walked into this room, I was greeted by a strong earth magic atmosphere. A white rhino specimen like a young thunder rhino stood in the room. This rhino was about four or five meters tall, and my head was almost only up to its knees...
