"Sir, is there anything I can help you with?" Behind the window, a female staff member looked at Sei Itō with a smile.
"I want to exchange for Merlin gold," Sei Itō said as he handed the bank card to the female staff member.
"How much do you want to exchange?" The staff member took the bank card and swiped it on the card machine.
"Let's exchange for ten thousand first," Sei Itō said in a rich and imposing manner.
"Okay." The female staff member responded with a smile, then continued to speak to Sei Itō while operating the machine, "Sir, the currency in your card is USD. I need to convert it into pounds before you can exchange it. We will charge a 2% conversion fee and a 5% conversion fee."
"I understand." Sei Itō, who was already prepared for the fee, nodded and responded.
With Sei Itō's permission, the female staff member quickly processed the exchange for Sei Itō.
"Sir, this is your bank card. Please keep it well. This is the Magic Realm's currency card. Ten thousand Merlin gold has been deposited for you. Please keep it well." She handed the bank card and a dark gold card with a coin and balance pattern printed on the upper left corner of the card back to Sei Itō.
"Thank you." Sei Itō reached for the two cards and put away the bank card. He then turned the Magic Realm's currency card over in his hand and thanked her.
After exchanging the gold coins, Sei Itō rushed back to Old Val's bookstore and paid for the 103 books that contained most of the low and intermediate magic knowledge.
"By the way, Boss, is there a library on Merlin Street?" Sei Itō, who was about to leave with the box, suddenly stopped. He turned to Old Val and asked.
"Yes, it is also in the center of Merlin Street. You can see it there," Old Val replied.
"I see, thank you." Sei Itō nodded and thanked him.
"Sir, if you really want to learn magic, it is better to go to the academy," Old Val, who was watching Sei Itō leave the store, reminded him again just as he was about to leave the store.
"Okay, I will go to the academy to take a look later." Hearing the voice, Ito Sei paused and nodded without looking back. Then, he continued to walk. He then walked out of the store.
After leaving Old Val's store, Sei Itō took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention. He quickly put the box containing magic books into the Rubik's cube world and walked toward the center of Merlin Street empty-handed.
"Mary, apologize, or else don't blame me for being impolite." A slightly familiar voice suddenly sounded in Ito Sei's ears.
"Huh? You want me to apologize? Did you eat the magic potion, Sally. Why don't you take a good look at yourself? You want me to apologize? That's just wishful thinking! "The woman named Mary said in disbelief. However, there was more disdain in his voice.
"That's right. You are a woman from a broken family. What right do you have to make Miss Mary apologize?" Mary's words had just faded when another female voice sounded. This voice was sharp and unkind.
"That's right, Sally. Your family is no longer the famous Adept family from back then. Stop pretending. Hurry up and apologize to Miss Mary. Otherwise, you won't have a good ending." Another female voice said in a mocking tone.
"Anna, I was wrong about you. I didn't think you were this kind of person!" Sally's voice was filled with sorrow.
"Don't talk nonsense. Apologize to me!" Mary said impatiently.
"In your dreams!" Sally shouted angrily.
"If that's the case, then don't blame me for being impolite! Do it! "Mary yelled.
Two strange chants rang out at Mary's words. A fireball and a beam of energy shot out from the hands of Anna and the other woman beside Mary, heading straight for Sally, who was also chanting her spell.
"* * * * * *" Just as the fireball and the energy were about to hit Sally, Sally finally finished her incantation, and a transparent energy barrier appeared in front of Sally, blocking the fireball.
However, that was all. The beam of energy suddenly twisted like a snake when it was about to touch the barrier. It went around the barrier and continued to rush toward Sally.
Sally seemed to know that the barrier couldn't stop the energy. After casting the barrier, she immediately stepped back. At the same time, she quickly took out a ball of powder from her pocket and threw it into the air. She then continued to chant.
In the next instant, the ball of energy that Sally had tossed into the air exploded into a shower of sparks, clashing with the ball of energy before vanishing into thin air.
"Anavaso!" Mary's voice suddenly rang out when Sally saw that her spell had neutralized the energy. A pitch-black beam of energy suddenly flew out from Mary's body and shot toward Sally in a zigzag manner.
"Mary, you're so evil!" Sally's expression changed when she heard the spell. She quickly retreated and made a hand gesture to prepare a spell. She glared angrily at Mary and roared.
"This is what you get for messing with me, Mary!" Mary chuckled triumphantly as she chased after Sally with her spells.
Just as the two were talking, the beam of energy finally caught up to Sally, who wasn't very agile. It was about to crash into her.
As an adept, and one with many family inheritances, Sally was fully aware of the effects of this' Crippling Curse '. She didn't want to be crippled after being hit by the curse. She immediately activated the silver ring on her finger.
In an instant, an extremely cold beam of energy shot out from her finger and collided with the pitch-black energy.
* Crack! * He didn't know what kind of spell that cold energy was, but the degree of coldness was indeed very exaggerated. It caused the pitch-black energy to freeze into a line of ice the moment it came into contact with it. It then exploded in midair and scattered all over the ground.
"Woman, you're really willing to go all out. You've even used the Guardian Ring's spell. Let's see how you're going to fight us now!" Mary's expression changed when she saw that her spell had been shattered. Then, she regained her previous gleeful expression.
"Mary, don't let me get my hands on you. Otherwise, I won't let you go." Sally complained with a resentful expression. Then, he threw out a ball of fine powder with a flick of his hand. Then, in the dazzling light of the powder, he turned around and quickly ran away.
"Dammit, she actually used Flash Powder. Chase after her!" Mary shouted angrily at Sally, who had already disappeared, when her vision recovered. She then closed her eyes and chanted a short incantation. She then opened her eyes and chased after the ball of light that had suddenly appeared in front of Mary and the others.
"Interesting. Perhaps I can save that woman and let her be responsible for teaching me about magic." Itō Sei smiled as he looked at the direction where the four of them were heading to after witnessing the short battle between the four of them.
He then tapped his feet and quickly followed after them like a ghost.
How fast could the four female magic casters be? They were only slightly faster than an ordinary person. Sei Itō had no pressure at all. He followed the four of them around Merlin Street as if they were taking a stroll, until they had completely exited the street and entered the nearby forest.
"Dammit, she actually got away!" Mary said with displeasure as she looked at the ball of light that had completely stopped in front of her.
On the other side, Sally, who had escaped Mary's pursuit, finally sat down on the ground after running for a while. She leaned against a tree and panted heavily.
"We meet again, Miss Sally." Just when Sally was caught off guard, Ito Sei suddenly appeared in front of her and said with a chuckle.
"It's you!" Sally subconsciously cried out when she saw Sei Itō suddenly appear in front of her. She still remembered his strength well.
"What do you want?" After that, Sally ignored her tired body and quickly stood up from the ground. She looked at Ito Sei in front of her with vigilance and questioned him.
Sei Itō didn't mind Sally's caution at all. He only smiled and asked, "Do you want revenge?"
"What do you mean?" Sally asked, confused.
"I can help you kill that girl called Mary." Sei Itō said casually.
"No need. I will take revenge for myself!" Sally rejected without hesitation. She then looked at Sei Itō seriously and asked, "You, on what basis are you going to take revenge for me? Or rather, what do you want from me?"
"Smart little girl." Sei Itō looked at her with a smile of praise.
"Please watch your words, Mister. You aren't older than me in terms of age." Sally narrowed her eyes and said.
"Alright, I used the wrong words." Ito Sei shrugged and looked at Sally with a serious expression. "What I want you to do is very simple. You have to teach me all the magic knowledge you know." Sally nodded and looked at him with a serious expression. "What I want you to do is very simple.
Sei Itō had just finished speaking when Sally retorted loudly like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, "Why should I?!"
"Because as long as I want to, you will die. Is that enough?" Sei Itō narrowed his eyes. He released his mental strength to envelop Sally, applying mental and physical pressure on her as he spoke calmly.
"I would rather die than teach my knowledge to someone I don't approve of!" Sally's face paled under the pressure, but her expression was extremely serious as she looked at Sei Itō.
"Very good. I admire your moral character, but that doesn't mean I will let you go. So, beautiful Miss Sally, goodbye!" Sei Itō said softly after silently looking at Sally for a moment. His mental strength then surged into Sally's mind and knocked her to the ground.
