"You! Hmph! " The woman's expression changed when she heard Sei Itō's words. She glared at Sei Itō hatefully before a sinister smile appeared on her face. The woman's mouth suddenly moved soundlessly. Following that, a strange ripple appeared in the air and enveloped Sei Itō.
Sei Itō frowned when he sensed the abnormality with his Spiritual Sense. He immediately unleashed his Spiritual Force to form a Spiritual Storm that shattered the strange ripple!
"How is this possible!" The woman exclaimed in shock when she sensed Sei Itō's Spiritual Force eruption. She looked at Sei Itō in disbelief.
"Do you want to die? How dare you attack a stranger? " Although Sei Itō had shattered the strange ripple, he did not retract his Spiritual Force. Instead, he quickly enveloped the woman and exerted Spiritual Pressure on her as he spoke in a cold and deep voice.
"I-I'm sorry, mister. The effect of the spell just now won't cause any harm to you. It will only temporarily make you look disgusting and make other people feel unhappy with you and want to beat you up. Other than that, there won't be any other effect. Really, I promise." Under the mental pressure, the woman's forehead was covered in sweat as she hurriedly explained with a pale face.
"Incantation … Are you a magician?" Sei Itō asked with a frown when he caught the key word in the woman's words.
"No, no, I'm a magician." Although the woman did not know why Sei Itō was asking this, she did not want to cause any more trouble for herself because of her lie. She quickly shook her head and revealed her true identity.
"The kind that awakens through bloodline?" Sei Itō continued to ask.
"Yes. Yes. "The woman nodded and admitted.
"What are you doing here?" Sei Itō asked again.
"I'm going to the Demonic Realm." The woman looked at Sei Itō in surprise before she explained.
"What Demonic Realm?" Sei Itō asked in confusion.
"The Demonic Realm is a semi-relative space created hundreds of years ago by the Great Wizard Merlin and a few of his friends using Space Magic that was almost lost. It's another world connected to the main world we live in. That's where the largest number of Magicians and Wizards live in. At the same time, you can buy all kinds of research materials and spellcasting materials that Magicians and Wizards need. "The woman said with a proud look on her face.
Seeing the woman's appearance, Sei Itō couldn't help but frown.
"This is one of the entrances to the Demonic Realm." Fortunately, the woman knew to pay attention to Sei Itō's expression. When she noticed that Sei Itō was frowning, she immediately returned to the topic at hand. He pointed at the wall behind Sei Itō.
Sei Itō followed the woman's finger and looked at the wall that didn't seem to be anything special. At the same time, he was surprised by his luck. He didn't expect that a random teleportation would lead him to one of the United Kingdom's secret realms.
"Take me in." Sei Itō looked at the woman in front of him and ordered in an unquestionable tone.
"Yes." Although she didn't know that she was at the mercy of others. She didn't know what to say. But it didn't prevent the woman from knowing that she had no room to refute. Therefore, he agreed without hesitation. Then, the woman walked through the path Sei Itō made and led Sei Itō to the wall. She then chanted a short and strange incantation.
As the incantation ended. The wall, which didn't have any abnormalities in Ito Sei's eyes before, suddenly rippled like a water wave, and a layer of visible ripples appeared on it.
"You can go in now." The woman turned around and said to Sei Itō. Then, she ignored Sei Itō and stepped into the ripples, disappearing in an instant.
Sei Itō looked at the ripples in front of him. After adding a layer of caution in his heart, he also stepped in.
Immediately, Sei Itō felt that the scenery in front of him suddenly changed. From the modern city, he suddenly returned to the Middle Ages. A large number of buildings full of pre-Renaissance style came into view in front of Sei Itō's eyes.
"Did she run away …" After the initial surprise, Sei Itō withdrew his gaze and looked around. However, he didn't see the woman's figure. He narrowed his eyes and thought to himself.
Then, he calmed his mind and followed the few people on the street. He strolled along the street, appreciating the different scenery that was completely different from the modern city.
In general, the items sold in the shop were similar to what Sei Itō saw in the German Alchemy Union branch. They were all equipment and tools. However, unlike the Alchemy Union, which sold items that could be used by anyone, the items sold here had their own preferences. Almost all of them were items that wizards and magicians could use. There were very few items that could be used by other professions. Even if there were, they were all custom-made items like the Alchemy Union's shop.
"I wonder if this place will be like the world of Harry Potter where they sell basic magic books." Sei Itō thought to himself after wandering around for half a day and looking at most of the shops.
"Sorry to disturb you. May I know where to buy magic books that beginners need around here?" After thinking about it, Sei Itō didn't hesitate and stopped a middle-aged man who was strolling with his wife and child.
"Follow this road and walk forward. After passing through two intersections, turn right at the third intersection and walk straight. There is an electrical shop with a pumpkin head ornament hanging on the door." The man enthusiastically pointed the way to the bookstore for Sei Itō.
"Thank you." Sei Itō thanked him and said goodbye to the family. He followed the man's directions and walked towards the bookstore.
After a short while, Sei Itō arrived in front of the bookstore. He pushed the door open and walked in.
"Welcome, Pugu." As soon as he walked in, a rather strange welcoming voice sounded.
"As expected of a magical mystical realm. The receptionist is actually a specially trained Pugu Bird." Sei Itō looked towards the source of the voice and shook his head slightly with a smile.
"Is there anything I can help you with, sir?" Then, a voice full of a British accent sounded in Sei Itō's ears.
"I want to buy some books about magic for beginners. Do you have any recommendations?" Looking up at the source of the voice, a middle-aged man in a white long-sleeved shirt with a brown waistcoat was standing behind the counter. His brown hair was neatly combed and he looked to be around forty years old.
"Is it a child who is coming into contact with magic for the first time?" The owner asked.
"Yes." Sei Itō walked to the counter and nodded.
"Then I recommend you to buy these books. These books were compiled by the famous magic educator, Mage Masos Findel. The content is very simple and easy to understand. It is most suitable for young people who are coming into contact with magic for the first time." The owner turned around and took out a few black books from the shelf behind him and put them on the table. He pushed them in front of Sei Itō and said.
"'What is Magic?' 'A Hundred Tricks to Attract Attention?' 'Magic and Life?' 'Magic and Fairy Tales …'" Sei Itō picked up the books on the counter, opened them, and started browsing.
"Not bad, I'll take all of these." After a while, Sei Itō found that the content was indeed easy to understand. There were very few words about magic. Even if there were, there would be explanations.
"Also, I need some advanced books. Do you have any here?" Sei Itō continued asking.
"Of course! My, Old Val's, bookstore has the most variety of books in the entire Merlin Street! "The middle-aged man named Val said proudly.
"Then I'll have to trouble you to help me pick out the advanced books suitable for beginners. Hmm, until you buy the highest level books you can take out." Sei Itō said with a smile.
"Hey, customer, I can sell you the books, but I have to remind you that you won't be able to learn magic by just reading those books. It might even ruin a person's future in magic due to negligence. Thus, if you or your relatives want to learn magic, I suggest you go to the Merlin Magic School to study professionally." Val said with a frown after hearing Sei Itō's words.
"Thank you for your advice. I will seriously consider it." Sei Itō didn't expect the other party to be so enthusiastic. He thanked him sincerely.
After a while, the owner put a pile of books on the counter and looked at Sei Itō, saying, "There are a total of one hundred and three books, worth three thousand eight hundred and seventy-two merlin gold coins."
"Eh … What is merlin gold?" Sei Itō asked with a stunned expression after hearing the price, but he didn't understand the monetary unit.
"Is this your first time in the Magic Realm?" Val looked at Sei Itō with a strange expression. Then, when Sei Itō nodded, he continued, "Merlin gold is the currency used in the entire Magic Realm. It can be exchanged at the Sodokrom Bank in the center of Merlin Street, but the price difference compared to the outside world is relatively large. According to the recent exchange rate, it should be one thousand pounds for one merlin gold coin."
"Oh." After listening to the boss's explanation, Ito Seiji nodded and replied. He then looked at the owner and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you to wait for a moment. I'll go to the Sodokrom Bank to exchange the money and then come look for you."
"Sure." Val nodded in agreement.
After getting permission, Sei Itō didn't hesitate and immediately left Val's magic bookstore and rushed to the center of Merlin Street.
'Fortunately, I still have a lot of money left after buying the energy crystal refining formula. Otherwise, I would have made a fool of myself.' Sei Itō thought to himself as he rushed to the bank.
Merlin Street might look ancient, but its length and area were truly exaggerated. With Sei Itō's speed, it took him more than ten minutes to reach the center of Merlin Street and reach the Sodokrom Bank.
Then, Sei Itō walked into the bank and glanced at the counter before walking to an empty window.
