Chapter 310 310: Villa (2)



As much as Rezen is in doubt, the map on his student token still made him sure that he did arrive at his new accommodation. This villa is where he will stay from now on

"Wait... could it be?" Rezen muttered as he thought of something and he approached the villa's door

Not just anyone could access this villa and Rezen saw an alchemical item at the villa's door. It was white in color and has a circular shape with a small ball at the center. Rezen is not that new and ignorant of the things in the city anymore and he pointed his student token at that item

As soon as Rezen did that, the alchemy lock shot a red laser-like thing at his student token that scanned it

After the scan was successful, the door was automatically unlocked and Rezen twisted the door knob and slowly pushed the door open

What met him was a wide living room and meters away from him, there was a familiar figure laying on the sofa while munching on a bowl of grapes

"Treen?" Rezen asked and the man on the sofa turned to look at that voice's source

"Oh, Rezen, you're here! Hehehe, I'm your roommate and this villa is ours! This is way bigger than our dormitory room!" Treen stood up as he approached Rezen and started giving him a 'tour' of the villa

"Originally, I would have stayed with my honey's Magic Tower but she told me that most of the time she is busy and I might get lonely. It's also uncomfortable staying in the Tower where most of the academy's executives live and I told her that we can just share a room and she gave us this Villa!" Treen started running his mouth again as he brought Rezen in front of a room

"This is my room and the room opposite to mine is yours. As for the room in the middle, it was a guest room but we have the permission to use it as your alchemy room! There would be people that will come to transform the guestroom but in exchange, Honey told me that you should give me part of your earnings and that would be my additional pocket money. But we are members of the same tribe, there's no need for that! We can just say that you gave me the money even if we don't. You're the most talented mage of our tribe, I know that you'll grow strong and famous. Don't forget me when that time comes, okay? Hehehe"

As much as Rezen was flabbergasted by this development he still can't help but be excited

An alchemy room! He will have his own alchemy room in this villa that is way better than the ordinary dormitory rooms of the other students!

It feels like comfort came raining down on him and Rezen started thinking that although Treen was a bit weird, he is very useful

"Treen, you're my best friend!" Rezen said. Who needs a fortune aura if his friend has such a kind and powerful girlfriend?

"Hehehe, don't say that!" Treen replied bashfully as he playfully punched Rezen on the shoulder

Since Rezen received so many things thanks to Treen's connection, he felt like he should give back the favor

He turned his back on Treen before he retrieved a bunch of Suppla Grapes from his farm. These Suppla Grapes are not directly soaked with the unnamed potion that he got from the Guardian but it still has the effect of increasing one's talent

When Rezen turned his body to Treen again the bunch of grapes was already on his hand and he projected a very serious expression on his face

"Treen, I have something to give to you but you must make sure not to tell anyone about this. Do you understand?" Rezen asked, his tone stating that he is dead serious causing the other man to gulp a mouthful of saliva

"O-okay, I-I understand. What is that?" Treen asked, he was not used to Rezen's current seriousness since there aren't many instances that such a version of Rezen would show

"It's these grapes. I found them while I was foraging on the resource points. They are of great help to your cultivation but you must not tell anyone about this! These Spirit Plants are incredible and if others found out about them, they might force me to hand them over even if I don't have them anymore. This is serious, you must listen to me" Rezen said as he handed the grape bunch from his hand to Treen's hand and the man gulped a mouthful of saliva

"T-this... i-if it's that incredible then you should just eat them yourself! You are the hope of our tribe, you deserve this more than me!" Treen said as he attempted to give the grapes back but Rezen rejected it

"I already ate enough of them and they are pretty much useless to me already. This is thanks for all the things you did for me"

"What thanks? There's no need for this! I did it because I wanted to not because I wanted to get something from you. We are fellow tribesmen, we are family!"

In terms of familial affection and unity, city people couldn't hope to beat tribal people. It was not only Treen that has this kind of personality, almost all tribesmen are the same

"I'm also doing this because I want to. Now, go to your room, eat these Spirit Plants, and cultivate. At the very least, you should reach the 3rd cycle within a month" Rezen said as pushed Treen to his room

Treen is a Spirit Mage but his cultivation rank was still in the 2nd cycle. Not to mention being accepted to a second-rate academy, normally, Treen wouldn't even receive a recommendation letter

This was only made possible because the Headmaster herself is his girlfriend. Rezen wanted to see Treen reaching the 3rd cycle at the very least

This man although silly and weird is pure. Rezen doesn't mind being friends with such a person and he also wants to make him his subordinate because Treen is a loyal person

Naturally, Rezen would help such a friend reach a higher cultivation rank. These mutated Suppla Grapes can be grown by his farm easily, there's no reason to be too cheap about them

As soon as Rezen pushed Treen inside his room and closes the door, a little snake suddenly wiggled out of his shadow and climbed on his shoulder

"Don't even think about it. The only thing you do is eat the grapes but you don't cultivate nor train! If you want more, show some effort!" Rezen said harshly at Belazark that is the epitome of laziness

The little snake most of the time is hiding in Rezen's shadow when there are other people around and there are two reasons for that

The first reason is Belazark's cowardness. It doesn't want to be seen by humans as it felt like they would kill it

As for the second reason, Rezen wants to be prepared in case he is ambushed by people that would become his enemy. If they don't know that he has a familiar hiding in his shadows, Belazark could use the element of surprise to kill them

Now that Treen is inside his room only then did Belazark come out and even before speaking, Rezen knew what it wanted

This glutton wants nothing else but to ask for 'food' even though it was not even putting the effort to make all the resources poured into it worth it

"Master, how can you say that? This snake has always been hard-working! I almost don't eat or sleep to cultivate! This snake deserves a treat!" Belazark said shamelessly as if Rezen does not need to regularly beat it just for it to cultivate and train

"One more word and I'll skin you alive. I'm telling you, if you grow too weak to be of any use to me I'll make sure to bury you alive!" Rezen threatened and although Belazark shuddered he is aware that is useless

Threats would only work temporarily on it but after that, its laziness will kick in again

While shaking his head, Rezen walked towards his new room and it was a simple one. Aside from bare necessities like a bed and cabinet, it doesn't have much inside

However, Rezen can sense a magic formation in this room, and his eyes lit-up

"Mana-gathering Formation! This helps the mage cultivate faster than normal! It's more progress for little effort!" Rezen muttered

This formation would increase the mana concentration inside the room it was installed and as a result, cultivating inside would be faster than cultivating outside

Of course, it's not like this formation is free to use. It requires mana stones to work and it was essentially pouring money for faster progress as if you'll top-up on a game to have an edge against other players
