My Magic Age

The dinner was over, and Kuz's family had a new understanding of us. At least they knew that Kuz and I had been through hardships together and had a life-and-death friendship. The orcs valued promises more, and Kuz's mother could not stop this. Therefore, the reason for taking those starving orcs home eventually became that I had to go to the Drowned Bog at the edge of the swamp to hunt swamp zombies in order to collect enough money for my trip home.

My greedy face also turned into a helpless act of a child who had nothing and wanted to protect himself. The orcs have always believed that in the human world, as long as you have gold coins in your pocket, you can settle everything, because there are profit-seeking businessmen everywhere. A child like me should have more gold coins in my pocket when I go to the Green Empire. And I heard that this was a money-making idea given to us by Meiya and the wise man, so going to the Death Swamp seemed natural.

Kurt finally decided to divide the area around the edge of the Death Swamp to Kuz, and after he participated in the coming-of-age ceremony, he would officially become the lord there. However, this matter needs to be voted on at the Guludin Elders' Meeting tomorrow before it can take effect. Hey, since it's an internal appointment, why do we still have to go through the formalities?

As the acting chief of Guluding Town, Kurt is a very smart orc. I think he has come to his senses now. From the mountains of goods on the Yagui beasts we brought, the magic herbs in the sacks and the bundles of magic antelope skins, he will understand how much we have gained in the North Foothills Wasteland and will no longer underestimate our strength.

In order to make Kuz's mother less worried, Miss Qi even performed the magic of "White Flame" in front of her. This also means that Qi Ge has learned the second magic, which is to become a ninth-level magician apprentice. She is only one step away from being a real magician.

In fact, for the division of the strength level of magician apprentices, the Magician Association in the ivory tower has strict regulations for each level of magician apprentices. Among them, the magic power stored in the magic pool is the most rigid indicator. If this indicator is not met, it will never be possible to promote the level. It is very simple for a magician apprentice to upgrade from level one to level six. As long as the magic value in the magic pool reaches the specified requirements, he will be promoted directly. Every magician apprentice will learn meditation on the first day of school. As long as he practices diligently, he can become a level six magician apprentice. However, level seven is a watershed for magician apprentices. To become a level seven magician apprentice, not only does the magic value in the magic pool need to be sufficient, but also sufficient affinity for magic elements. When the affinity of a certain magic element is sufficient, the magician apprentice will easily learn the magic skills under this magic element. Each magic skill has a minimum element affinity requirement.

For example, Qi Ge has a very high affinity for arcane magic elements, so she learned the "magic bullet".

I once asked her why she didn't learn fireball. I heard that skill was the most powerful in the early stage.

She grinned and said to me: You think I don't want to, but my affinity for arcane magic elements is the highest, and it is easiest to feel it in meditation. I just want to learn a cool magic skill as soon as possible, so I learned it.

For example, Sister Guoguo has a very high affinity for water elements. She told me that her first magic skill was ‘Water Bullet’.

I was surprised and asked at that time: Why not Frost Arrow?

She smiled dumbly, tapped my forehead lightly, and asked back: Who said that a water magician can learn Frost Arrow as the first skill? Do you know how much affinity for water magic elements is required to learn that skill?

I thought to myself, how can I know if you don’t tell me!

In the magic caravan, I knew that the reason why Qi Ge had been reluctant to advance was that she had not learned the second magic. When a magician apprentice was promoted from level 7 to level 8, there was no obstacle, as long as the magic value met the standard requirements. But when it came to level 9, the magician was required to have enough magic affinity. Originally, if Qi Ge had improved the affinity of arcane magic elements, it would not be too difficult, but Miss Qi got angry and insisted on making her affinity of fire magic elements reach the level of a level 9 magician apprentice. This time, she undoubtedly had to experience another kind of fire magic element again. This has caused Miss Qi to remain at the level 7 magician apprentice until now.

The egg-sized fireball in her palm is covered with black vines, which looks like countless black vines tying up a milky white flame. The white flames continue to burn through these black vines. I can feel the strong burning sensation when I stand two meters away. This is not the "small fireball spell", but the magic "white flame spell" that can only be learned by the ninth-level magician apprentice. This is a fire spell that is more scorching than the "fireball spell", but its disadvantage is that the attack range is only forty yards, which is very close for a magician. Qi Ge naturally has her reasons for learning this, that is, the temperature of the "white flame" can melt most of the primary magic metals and ores. As a potion master, learning this spell can save a lot of auxiliary materials.

On the way back to the room, Qi Ge finally couldn't help asking me: "Jia, everyone in the caravan said that you brothers have mastered the secret of the beastman's cuisine, which is why the food is so delicious. You also took out a delicious food that everyone in the caravan had never eaten before and asked everyone in the caravan to taste it. Later, I was greedy and asked you to make a sumptuous dinner for me. If it weren't for that delicious dinner, who would know a little kid like you!"

She laughed loudly as she spoke, and the sound like silver bells echoed in the corridor, which seemed so clear and sweet.

"I still clearly remember how you looked like a pig at that time. When you looked at me, your saliva almost dripped down to your clothes. It was the first time I saw such a young child with such a leering look in his eyes." Qige's words brought back our memories. On that beautiful Xinghu grassland, there were countless pictures that clearly stayed in my spiritual sea.

The scene of old Kuru sitting on the mound waiting for Kurtz and I to return from hunting guinea pigs. Uncle Fred spreads the hind legs of the devil antelope and chops downwards with the bone-cutting knife. Kuz and I were swimming in Star Lake, and suddenly a huge Thunder Rhino appeared next to us, as if it was raining heavily. Sister Guoguo pulled me into the tent, which was all wet, and helped me change into dry clothes. For the first time in this world, I blushed with embarrassment when I saw a mature woman's body.

Qi pulled me to sit on the balcony of the room, looking up at the star map in the night sky. I don’t know when I started to like looking up at the night sky. Catalina found some meat floss from her luggage bag, and proudly took out a piece of cheese from her arms. She brought a plate of white bread from the coffee table in the room, and proudly said to Qige: "You're not full?" , fortunately I prepared these.”

Qige pinched Catalina's face affectionately and praised: "What a baby!"

Qige was at the dinner table and refused to eat more in order to maintain her appearance. I helped her to kill half of her steak. Only then did I think of asking Catalina where she had dinner. She smiled sweetly at me and said, "In the small hall next to the kitchen, we eat grilled cleft hoof beef shank, which is delicious."

Qige stood in front of me, with her back to me. She opened her arms to hold up her burgundy wavy long hair, revealing her snow-white slender neck and perfectly curved back. I stood on the wooden pier skillfully and stood on tiptoe. He stepped on his feet and untied the corset of her long skirt on her back little by little. Among the dots of lights in Gurudin Town, the brightest places are in the street markets. Several criss-crossing strips of light are formed in Gurudin Town, which is very beautiful.

At this time, Qige said regretfully: "Jia, I originally thought that the nobles in the orc tribe would eat the exquisite dishes you made every day, such as the strange-tasting herring, mushroom soup, and black pepper lamb chops. But here , I discovered that there is no such delicacy in the orc tribe. They are imitating the nobles of the Green Imperial Capital. Taste, those nobles seemed to be tired of all the food. Before I traveled with the dance group, such medium-rare cleft hoof steak had become popular there. I found that the food in the orc tribe was not as good as I imagined. They gave up those delicious secret seasonings and just wanted to imitate the luxury of the Green Empire nobles..."

After getting rid of the cumbersome and heavy long dress and kicking off the exquisite shoes, Qige lay on the large wooden lounge chair wearing only a flesh-hugging white petticoat. Catalina took out two blankets from the room, one covered with On Qige's body, a strip wrapped around my body.

I jumped onto the wooden railing of the balcony and sat down, putting my legs on the outside of the balcony, and then said, "I thought you would be eager to prepare the magic ink."

Qige didn't answer my words and was silent for a long time before saying to me: "I'm at level nine!"

I continued: "I know, do you really think that I am a child who doesn't understand anything? When I see your 'White Flame Technique', I know that your magic affinity has reached the ninth level, so then Are you going to become a real magician?"

Qige said calmly: "Well, I can successfully graduate from the Junior Green Royal Academy of Magic before I turn sixteen. In these days in the wasteland, my magic affinity has improved a lot. I think I can stay with us all night. The late preparation of the scroll has a lot to do with it. I didn't expect that preparing a large amount of magic potion would actually increase the affinity of magic elements. Jijia, I think I want to go home. I want to take the graduation exam in the summer and get the magician qualification certificate. Apply to the Intermediate Green Royal Academy of Magic.”

There was the sound of a knife falling to the floor. I turned my head and looked over. Caterina squatted on the ground in a panic and picked up a silver knife. In her hand, she held a thin-necked and tall silver pot. Face looked at both of us in panic.

I spat out a few words with difficulty: "That's great! I will find an opportunity to go to the Imperial Capital to see you."

"Come back to the Imperial Capital with me. Catalina has been taking care of you during this period. You won't be used to leaving her." Qige said tactfully.

"You know, I promised Sister Guoguo." I refused again.

The night became very silent because of this, and the loneliness in everyone was spreading, like a creeper on an old wall, completely covering the entire wall. I didn't sleep well that night. I shrank my body into the quilt, making myself look like a cocoon, but the emptiness still made me feel cold all over.

After midnight, the two silver moons quietly climbed up from the edge of the mountains. The dazzling moonlight made the entire star map disappear in the night, leaving only the brightest stars. The mercury-like moonlight spilled into the room through the large floor-to-ceiling windows. The gauze curtains of the windows were blown by the night wind, like a enchanting dancer twisting her body. I even clearly felt Caterina got out of bed and tied the messed up gauze curtains again.

Early the next morning, I was pulled out of bed by Qi Ge. I almost didn't sleep all night last night, and I fell asleep in a daze when it was almost dawn, with that beautiful and beautiful face smiling. Looking at me, slender fingers like white onions pulled my ears and shouted in my ears: "Jijia, get up quickly. We agreed to sort out the herbs and magic antelope skins this morning. Don't hide in bed." be lazy!"

The ruby ​​on her snow-white neck was crystal clear, and the girl's fragrance filled her nostrils.

I was pulled up in my sleep. Caterina beside me thoughtfully wiped my face with a towel. I saw her red eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes. It was obvious that she didn't sleep well last night. . The room was in a mess, with girls' clothes hanging everywhere on the sofa, the floor, and the wooden coffee table, making this room with a rather orcish decoration style full of vitality.

We ate breakfast in the room. I liked the Chocobo omelette very much, it was very tender.

We were almost done eating when Kurtz arrived. I don’t know how well he comforted his mother last night, but seeing the bright look on his face, he probably convinced his mother.

Kurtz opened the curtain and walked in. He saw Catalina clearing the plates on the coffee table and asked in surprise: "Have you finished eating so early?"

"Miss Qi has to deal with her herbs. She needs to hurry up!" I said weakly as I lay on the sofa without energy. I slept too late yesterday and my head was still a little dizzy.

Qi Ge stood up from the dressing chair, threw the eyebrow pencil into the exquisite dressing box, checked carefully in the mirror, and found that there were no flaws. She corrected the ponytail on the back of her head with satisfaction, and turned to look at Qi Ge. He said: "Some of those magic herbs have too many uses. If you can't get it, you have to sell it, just like the hemostatic grass. I don't have time to purify it repeatedly, and then refine one or two bottles of healing potion. Let's prepare the materials for making milky white ink and moonlight ink. , please ask Butler Kidd to help us deal with everything else.”

"You don't want so many, why did you spend so much effort to transport them back?" When I thought about having to face more than thirty sacks of magic herbs, I wanted to die, so I complained to Qige.

"You want to take care of it? Get up quickly and sit on the sofa when you're full. What a lazy pig! Go and help me move those sacks out of the warehouse!"

I was secretly complaining in my heart, and said hurriedly: "Sister, it would be great if we could just select in the warehouse, and we don't have to worry about being exposed to the sun!"

"Tch, it's not like I didn't go to the warehouse yesterday. It was dark, dark and full of dust. Is it a place to stay?" Qigela nagged me while walking out of the room. Kurtz and Catalina hurriedly followed behind, and a group of us arrived at the sundries warehouse next to the stables outside the garden wall at the back of the castle. At this time, the servant sent by Kidd had been waiting for a long time. When he saw us arriving, he happily moved the warehouse The door opened, and Kurtz asked the grooms to move the herbs out of the warehouse.

It is very tedious to deal with those herbs. Miss Qi is a very picky person. First, she must select different types of herbs one by one and place them in categories one by one. Herbs with poor quality must be picked out. The four of us were busy all morning and only finished picking three sacks of magic herbs. I looked at the piles of herbs to be processed like a hill, and urged Qige: "Let's ask someone to pick them!" Qige and Catalina looked at the pile of herbs on the ground, and finally they could only agree.

Butler Kidd brought some diligent wolf beast girls here. They all had some basic knowledge of herbal medicine and worked very quickly. I was finally able to laze aside. Soon after, a herbal medicine merchant from Gurudin Town was also invited. Qige started to bargain with him. Qiu kept talking about these magic herbs. I was too lazy to participate, so I just watched Catalina grinding the Ningshen grass juice. Catalina looked at me resentfully, as if she was still complaining that I didn't agree to Qige last night. It’s about returning to the imperial capital together.

In the end, most of the herbs we didn't use were sold to the herbal medicine merchant at a discount. Qige didn't ask for any money, but just returned some lapis lazuli, tiger's eye stone and a small bag of mithril powder in exchange for equal value. I saw the herbal medicine merchant carefully putting the precious Magic Emperor Grass into wooden boxes, and asked Qige: Why were those rare Magic Emperor Grass also sold? Qige turned her head to the side calmly and replied: If you can't take it away, just sell it. I didn't know what to say for a moment.
