Chapter 915: 285. The Criterion of the Heart_4
“You wish to explore the Magic Relics?” Erica asked.
Without waiting for Noland Lee to respond, Erica asked again:
“Let me guess, Selena must have advised you against doing so, right?”
“That’s correct.”
“My view is the same as hers, Jarvis.” Erica said gently trying to persuade:
“There are too many uncertainties when it comes to exploring Magic Relics. The relics themselves are a highly unstable Sub-Dimensional Plane that could close at any moment, that’s one.
...
“For another thing, the time flow in all Magic Relics is different from the Natural World. If you can’t immunize yourself against aging, you might enter the relics as a young person and emerge with the body of an old man. You could even become a dead man the moment you leave the Magic Relics.”
Erica waved her hand dismissively:
“Oh, of course, death is not that much of a problem for us Death Clan Wizards.
“You could turn yourself into Undead, then enter the Magic Relics. If you’re willing to give up the senses and emotional fluctuations of the living, then all I can do is wish you success.
“But there’s one thing I must say beforehand, transforming into the Lost Souls could impact your ‘Magic Power Container.'”
The Magic Pen wrote swiftly, providing a backdrop to Erica’s words.
“I still advise you to follow the standard procedure, Jarvis.”
Erica’s voice was gentle:
“Your conflict with the head of the Pomida Family will indeed affect your gold coin income, but I estimate that the impact should be relatively limited. With your daring and cleverness, saving enough money to buy a Sub-Dimensional Plane doesn’t seem too hard. I can also lend you some gold coins to fill the gap.
“After all, ‘Silent Maiden’ having a new Lecturer Professor is a good thing, both for me and ‘Silent Maiden.'”
The Magic Pen stopped writing.
The Letter Paper floated in front of Noland Lee.
Erica consoled:
“Go back to the classroom, Jarvis. Don’t waste your Extraordinary Traits on strife with others.
“You’ve found a loophole in the laws that allows you to apprehend Wizard Criminals outright as a First Rank Wizard without the need for conclusive evidence. This is a good thing in the short term.
“But have you considered why this practice hasn’t become widespread within the Ulnas Circle?”
Erica earnestly advised:
“Because compared to a High Ring Level Wizard’s status, the gains from taking advantage of legal loopholes are pitifully small. As a Wizard’s level rises, many people’s views and attitudes towards you will naturally change.
“Imagine, if you were a genuine Saint Tier Wizard, would the Pomida Family still treat you this way?
“To put it another way, even after advancing to Seven-Ring, it doesn’t prevent you from ‘taking advantage of loopholes.’ It’s just that the targets of your forced duels would change from above First level to above Seven-Ring. Am I right?”
Noland Lee took the letter, nodding as he responded:
“Yes, Professor. I’ve been thinking about this issue recently. Perhaps I should advance to Seven-Ring and then continue to ‘take advantage of loopholes.'” noveldrama
Erica noticed Noland Lee was still considering exploiting legal loopholes and her mouth twitched slightly:
“Uh… well, once you reach Seven-Ring, there will be many things you can do, and I estimate you’ll no longer have the mind to take advantage of loopholes then.”
Noland Lee already had his own plans in this regard.
Moreover, he hadn’t revealed everything in front of Erica.
Officially, after his own advancement to Seven-Ring, he wouldn’t be able to force a Life and Death Duel with Wizards below Seven-Ring.
But unofficially, this restriction didn’t exist.
Just because he couldn’t force Life and Death Duels with Wizards below Seven-Ring didn’t mean Nolin couldn’t.
In time, if Nolin could live as a Human Wizard, she could surely maintain a Wizard Apprentice’s level and help Noland overturn Evil Sorcerers below Seven-Ring.
This was the crux of Noland Lee’s plan.
“By the way, Professor, do you know how to improve an Ethereal Being’s ‘Spiritual Affinity’?”
While reading the letter, Noland Lee discussed the care of Ethereal Beings with Erica.
About an hour later.
The letter was sent out under Erica’s name, and Noland Lee had also learnt methods to help Nolin upgrade her attributes.
Erica once again cautioned Noland Lee against venturing into the Magic Relics before watching him leave the area.
