"Let Sicar rest. She's about to give birth, and you're still leading her around!" Although Jason was happy, he still reprimanded Salin. Mages weren't suited for progeny. Other than physical reasons, it was also because most mages didn't have the time to marry and have children. The joy of practicing magic was far more attractive than sex.
Sicar was still in armor, but her armor was light and could change shape, so it wasn't a burden. She shook her head and said, "Teacher Jason, I want to stay with Salin."
Jason was stunned, but he liked her even more. Sicar's personality was different from Rex's. She would say whatever was on her mind, and she wouldn't make things awkward.
Jason didn't say anything else. He just nodded at Salin. Salin released a Water Shield, and the huge bubble slowly deflated on the ground. Then, Sicar half laid on it, like a low bed used by nobles.
There was no one else in the room except Jason, Sicar, and Salin. Jason said to Salin, "Tell me, what troubles do you have?"
Salin's heart warmed. He thought about it carefully and said, "Teacher, some troubles can't be said out loud."
He had signed a contract with the Goddess and promised Faka. Because of the contract, he had to deal with it himself. If he said it out loud, the backlash from the contract would be a huge trouble that could decide his life and death.
"Then tell me what you can." Jason didn't mind. Mages were also restricted by the rules. Salin's identity was different now, so it was normal for him to have more secrets.
Salin stretched out his left and right, and green light seeped out of his hands. Salin said, "I have a bit of the Goddess of Nature's life force. This thing must be eradicated by the Church. So the Church and I are irreconcilable. There's no possibility of reconciliation. "
"There's no need for reconciliation. If the Church wants to deal with you, you can overthrow them." Jason's answer was very straightforward.
Salin was taken aback for a moment, but then he smiled. His teacher had challenged a level-six mage with a Magic Tower when he was at level-five because his family's graveyard had been destroyed. Not everyone could have this kind of courage. To be exact, not many people would be able to do it.
"There are no good people in the Holy Church. Teacher is right. Why don't we just overthrow the Holy Church? You didn't build a Magic Tower in the first place, but instead built a temple as your residence. Didn't you already have this idea in your heart?" Sicca was half-lying there.
Previously, Shika had been trained by a group of mages to speak in a way that he could not change. When he spoke, he would mix in a lot of complicated grammar, but the meaning he conveyed was still as clear as ever.
Salin thought for a while and said, "Rex gave me the Seal of the Six-Winged Flying Snake. Although I can't really use this seal to get the Glücos Family to fight for me, anyone who wants to deal with me will have an extra layer of scruples. However, I'm worried that Prince Sephiroth will kill me. He's a Gold Sword Saint, and no one can protect me if he gets close to me. "
"Sephiroth … I can't touch him for now. If he dies, Qin Yin will fall into chaos. At most, you won't go to Holy Rock City anymore. Stay in Metatlin City, and no one can touch you, not even the old monsters in Holy Rock City, "Jason replied.
"Teacher, you know Joey?"
"Hmph, the strongest person in Holy Rock City for a few hundred years. This guy once killed many people in Alchemy City, and he only survived after escaping to Holy Rock City."
"Back then, he wasn't at Level Ten, right?" Salin asked tentatively.
"Yes, back then, he was only Level Eight," Jason said calmly.
Salin was speechless at people like Joey. He dared to provoke Alchemy City when he was only Level Eight. However, it seemed that Joey had no intention of continuing this hatred. Otherwise, with his current Level Ten power, even if he couldn't kill his way into Alchemy City, he could still block the way outside the city. If no one could enter and leave Alchemy City, then Alchemy City's prestige would be seriously damaged.
"Teacher, Neris is a demon. She can summon an army of demons to fight for me." Now that Salin's teacher was here, there was nothing to worry about. If Jason couldn't support him from behind, then he would have no one to rely on.
"An army of demons!" Jason looked shocked again. Even when Salin angered the Vatican, Jason didn't react this way.
"Teacher, is this really inappropriate?" Salin started to worry.
"It's not inappropriate. Our power … is still too weak." Jason fell into deep thought.
Salin was confused by his teacher's words. In his opinion, Metatlin City already had more than 30 Magic Shooters. No matter what, the word "weak" had nothing to do with it.
"The Plane of Demons is closest to the Myers Continent, much closer than the Plane of Dead Souls. Salin, the power of humans is increasing now, and the demons are no exception. If we can't control them, these demons will be a disaster for Metatlin City. "
"Teacher, I built the Demon City according to the drawings of the demon god."
"Neris won't be satisfied with only summoning demons. This kind of summoning will lower the demons' intelligence and combat power. She will nurture demons born on the Myers Continent. The growth of demons is extremely fast. In a few decades, she can nurture two or three generations. The demons born on the Myers Continent are not so easy to control. "
"Then the humans back then …"
"The humans back then, at my level, could only be used as apprentices." Jason glared at his student.
Seeing that Salin didn't refute, Jason said, "I have roughly analyzed the situation of the continent. Alchemy City will no longer take a cowardly attitude and will participate in the struggle of the entire continent. Because there are more and more powerful Mages in Alchemy City, the area controlled by Alchemy City can no longer satisfy these Mages. So, you have an army of demons. In the short term, it will be a powerful help. The key is that there must be a Level Ten powerhouse among us within 30 years to truly control the Demon City. Otherwise, if you accidentally summon a demon god, everyone will be finished. "
"This …"
"How is that possible? Hey, Salin, you don't know. Although a demon god is not a god, it is definitely a creature above Level Ten. Even the weakest demon god is stronger than a human Level Nine Magic Shooter. Demons are not suppressed on the Myers Continent. If a demon god finds out that his people are constantly disappearing, he will disguise as ordinary demons. This way, the summoning array is very likely to bring a demon god to this plane. Think about it, a Level Ten demon bloodline creature can command all the demons in this plane. Isn't it very troublesome? "
"What if Nelis reaches Level Ten?"
"Unless you advance to Level Nine as soon as possible. The contract between you will always suppress her growth. If you don't advance, her combat power will not be able to improve in essence. "
"When Sicar's child is born, I will enter the Six Yuan Space." Salin lowered his head and said honestly.
Nelis did hide something from him about the army of demons. But with Nelis's bloodline, there was no need for her to have any feelings for humans. As long as she could protect herself, it was fine. For Nelis, losing control of the army of demons was not something unacceptable.
"Yes, although you are my only student, it seems that you don't want to inherit everything from me. I heard that you took in a student?" Jason's words made Salin blush. He had taken in The Truman Show on a whim, without any warning. At that time, he was still a Level Six Mage, and Truman was at least a Level Four Great Mage. It was a bit difficult for him to be his teacher.
"I also don't have time to teach him. You can't ignore your own student."
"I understand." Salin could not refute Jason's words, although Jason did not teach him too much.
"Since you want to deal with the Vatican, what you have done is far from enough. Salin, don't be restrained in the expansion of the army. Expand the army of the Temple of Gods. Ten main legions will be stationed outside all year round. Leave the rest to the nobles under you. You will get more if you distribute half of the benefits. "
"Half?" Salin was too sensitive to this number. He had been controlling the power of the nobles, for fear of a rebellion.
"Hmph, era, do you understand this word?"
Salin shook his head. It was not that he did not understand, but he did not know why his teacher suddenly mentioned this.
"I have a premonition that a new era is coming. Those nobles may only have their last glory. Let them dance to their heart's content. Under the guidance of the Demon King, everything will come to an end. "
Jason said a string of dramatic lines, making Salin smile bitterly.
"Teacher, is the strength of humans really improving so quickly?" Salin was not sure about this. He was only trying his best to move forward, afraid that he would be left behind.
"It's faster than you think. I will soon advance to a Level Nine Magic Shooter, and within three years, there is hope for me to advance to Level Ten. This is something I did not dare to imagine in the past. Of course, this has to do with talent, but if not for the change in the rules of this plane, I will need at least a hundred years to advance to Level Ten. "
Jason's words gave Salin a whole new understanding of his teacher. Jason was actually confident of advancing to Level Ten within a hundred years! And that was the previous estimate. Now, the time had been shortened to within ten years.
"Salin, you are not talented, but you are hardworking enough. I have never seen a mage who can endure more hardship than you. I have a general understanding of your training method, but you have a fatal weakness. "
Salin stood there and pricked up his ears. Jason's words were very important to him. Because his inheritance came from Jason. Jason was the one who knew best how to train for his line of mages. Before advancing to the Magic Shooter realm, Salin had not understood, but now he had a vague understanding. Every inheritance had a different path to take in the end.
