Chapter 34 Orianna’s Approval! Li Huan Obtains Intangible Privileges!
No one wanted to stay here anymore, but unknown whether there would be more ambushes along the way, they stayed on the spot and waited for support from the Mage Council.
Not long after, Orianna arrived with her people. Looking at her younger sister who was still quite traumatized but not injured, the two of them hugged.
“Thank you! Thank you! I know that you’ve already saved my sister the last time, and this time it’s thanks to you again! If it weren’t for you, I really don’t know what I would have done,” Orianna raised her head. Originally, she had still been somewhat wary of Li Huan. After all, he knew that she, Lana’s sister, was a member of the Mage Council. The possibility that he had staged such a play to gain her trust couldn’t be ruled out.
However, after tonight, the wariness in her heart towards Li Huan was temporarily removed. The three Mage corpses with the Dark Council’s emblem were just right there. At the same time, he had never made any requests to her, as such, he must not be someone with evil intentions.
“It’s fine. It’s no big deal,” Li Huan thought nothing of it. The last time he had rescued Lana was because he had suddenly received a mission. As for this time, he was by her side as a teacher, so protecting her was his responsibility.
Everyone then immediately set off and returned to the Imperial City!
“Li Huan, thank you so much. Please know that I am your friend from now,” After everyone returned to the imperial city, Orianna once again expressed her gratitude to Li Huan.
Although Li Huan did not show it on his face, he knew that being able to gain the approval and friendship of a popular person in the Mage Council would undoubtedly bring him a lot of convenience!
The next day, after Li Huan had a good rest, he went to the library.
However, the library today seemed to be a little different from the usual.
The guard at the door had always stood there every day like an unmoving king, but when he passed by the former today, he actually respectfully said good morning.
After he walked into the library, someone immediately greeted him with a smile. They also respectfully told him that an exclusive seat had been prepared for him and that drinks had long been prepared for him as well.
At his seat, there was a piece of paper. The words on it told him that the restrictions on his right to read the books had been fully lifted. In the lower left corner of the paper was a map that was clearly marked with the many kinds of valuable books in various regions.
He knew that Orianna’s friendship could bring him some convenience and privileges, but he really did not expect that there would be so many chasing after him to flatter him when he was just out to read some books.
He could also feel the strange gazes of many. Orianna had probably given clear orders to the others when she arranged his seat that he did not like to be disturbed.
After a day of reading, Li Huan left the library and was thinking of going to his magic shop to take a look.
He hadn’t been there for a few days. After he had destroyed the vampire’s lair, even the profits from the magic shop were nothing in his eyes.
It was now just a guarantee that he could keep making money. After all, no matter how much money he had, there would always be a day when it would run out. When he came to the vicinity of his magic shop, Li Huan felt a different aura.
Ever since he had opened the shop, whenever he came, he seemed to feel some malicious gazes staring at him and his shop.
But today, that feeling was completely gone.
Rielle was still in the shop. Although Rielle was his summoned creature, she had some matters in her family as well, so Li Huan told her that if there was nothing to do, she could just close the shop and go back. It was not a big deal.
“Master! You’re here! Sheesh! You don’t know this, but we’ve suddenly become popular and business was good. There were a few who even wanted to buy a bunch of our stuff, saying that they wanted to befriend you. I thought that they were strange, so I didn’t sell the things to them!”
It seemed that his privileges were not limited to the library. From the looks of it, there were many who wanted to curry favor with him.
“Well done, our magic wands are only to be sold to those who need them. Do ignore such
people.”
According to Rielle’s report, the business in his shop had indeed improved a lot. Apart from those who wanted to curry favor with him, there was an increase in ordinary Mage Apprentice customers.
There were even people who came because of the shop’s fame. Some had come from the neighboring town just to buy the legendary magic wand that was cheap and had special effects.
“Alright! You’re tired too, so feel free to go back!”
“No! Master! I’m not tired! To be able to serve you is the meaning of my existence, isn’t it?”
He wondered if it was because this Rielle was too stupid, or was it because his Mind Control had been super effective, but to think she liked doing such a boring thing like looking after the shop so much.
“Well, it’s up to you.”
Quickly walking back to his Mage Tower, Li Huan took out two second-circle spells. Although the Academy’s library did have such second-circle spells, those he got from the black market were more to his liking.
e
First was the Arcane Starlight, which was the advanced version of the Arcane Missile. He could only condense a few magic-made missiles with the Arcana Missile, but with the Arcane Starlight, he could create a small-scale magic bullet curtain.
Of course, he could not control every missile as precisely as when he used Arcane Missile, he could only control the whole small area with Arcane Starlight.
That being said, it could be considered to have a better AOE within a small area, which would be more advantageous to him when facing more enemies.
The second skill was Void Traction, which was somewhat similar to the Wind-Blessed that he had learned last time. It worked by exerting force on a space that others could not perceive, thus pulling oneself or the other party to move. It could be considered a skill that could be used for both offense and defense.
The Magic Academy might have refrained from collecting skills that were so difficult because they had probably considered the requirements for learning each skill. Therefore, Li Huan could only learn the spells that he had bought on the black market.
The difficulty of comprehending both spells was not low. However, with his Level 200 experience from his previous life, it was a piece of cake for him to figure out how to release these skills.
The small-area AOE skill coupled with his control skill as well as his physical strength, the scene that would happen in battle was simply unimaginable!
Not long after, both skills appeared in his skill pane.
He had already obtained a large number of skill points by reading books, so in this aspect, he was a rich man now. Wasn’t it just a few skill points? He would add them all!
