As time passed, Shien's conferring ceremony was getting closer and closer.
On this day, Shien was in a good mood.
"I've finally finished mastering the Celestial Magic."
Yes, Shien had memorized all the incantations of the Celestial Magic.
Now, Shien could use all the elementary, intermediate, and advanced Celestial Magic without missing a single one. Naturally, he was in a good mood.
"All that's left is to use magic."
As long as he finished mastering the Fu Yu Magic, Shien would be able to take a breather and give his brain a break.
"I've been memorizing all kinds of magic incantations recently. It feels like my brain is only filled with the words of the incantations. I hope I don't become stupid."
Reality proved that it was not easy to be a top student.
A true top student would be nurtured from a young age, starting from the basics bit by bit, and then gradually gaining a deeper understanding of knowledge. Unlike Shien, who had only been in this world for two months, there were still many things he did not understand. He could only cram them into his brain like a whale. Naturally, he did not feel good.
Fortunately, he only needed to memorize the incantations and be able to chant them. He did not need to comprehend the realm and see through the mysteries like in some novels. Otherwise, Shien felt that he should give up on the path of being a mage and just focus on close combat like Rosie.
"Who asked me to become a hero in a short period of time?"
Although Shien had not encountered a crematorium yet, he was still inexperienced in some places. He could not compare to the natives of this world, nor could he compare to the talents who had been immersed in this field for many years.
However, he had finally mastered a system of magic, and was not much worse than those professional mages.
Next, he only needed to finish mastering the Fu Yu Magic, and Shien's goal for the past month would be accomplished.
But...
"Compared to Celestial Magic, Fu Yu Magic is more troublesome."
Shien's happiness disappeared when he thought of the many more incantations for Fu Yu Magic compared to Celestial Magic.
As a magic system known for its generality, it could not avoid the two results of "many" and "miscellaneous".
Therefore, compared to Celestial Magic, there were many more incantations for Fu Yu Magic.
This made Sean regret more than once why he had to learn this kind of magic. However, the effects of the magic had never disappointed Sean, so he gritted his teeth and worked hard to get through it.
"Hopefully, I'll be able to memorize all the spells before the one-month deadline."
Feeling that there was a long way to go, Shien sighed silently.
But after that, Shien finally received good news.
It was the good news brought by Rosie, who was waiting for Sean at the entrance of the library.
"Your house has been decided." Rosie then said to Sean, who looked a little numb, "Let's go, I'll take you to have a look."
Hearing that, Sean finally perked up a little.
.
...
In this undulating area where the mansions and villas of the nobles were located, the nobles were very particular about where they lived.
Generally speaking, the higher the rank of the nobles, the closer their house was to the center. The lower the rank of the nobles, the more marginal their house was.
For this reason, every time a noble was promoted, they would consider buying a house that was closer to the center of the city. Nobles whose families had fallen often could not even keep their own houses. In the end, they would either be reduced to selling their houses or be chased away. As a result, the residences in the noble district would undergo a major change every once in a while.
The Lazahad family, where Shien and the others were staying, was close to the center, which proved the status of this great noble family.
Generally speaking, a viscount like Shien would not have to live in the marginal area, but he would definitely not be able to get close to the center. In the noble area, he would probably be in the lower-middle area.
But Rosie brought Shien all the way through the noble area. Finally, they arrived at the center of the noble area.
Here, a castle-like mansion rose from the ground, surrounded by several other pavilions, like stars surrounding the moon, protecting the mansion.
Did you think they were separate?
Wrong.
Upon closer inspection, there were corridors connecting the mansion and guesthouses.
Moreover, the mansion and guesthouse were not only surrounded by an incomparably vast garden, but they were also surrounded by tall fences.
In other words, the mansion, guesthouses, and gardens in this area were all together, belonging to one place of residence.
At the center of the noble area, there were such luxurious houses, which could be regarded as a territory.
"How is it? Are you satisfied? "
Rosie brought Shien here and smiled at him.
"..."
Shien was silent.
After a while...
"Goodbye."
Shien turned around and left.
"Wait, wait! Why are you leaving! "
Rosie was stunned and hurriedly dragged Shien back.
Shien slapped her hand away.
"Because you are playing with me." Shien said with a fake smile, "Are you sure you can give this to me?"
"Why not?" Rosie seemed to be unable to understand. She tilted her head and said cutely, "Since no one lives here, can't I give it to you?"
Shien looked at the pretending girl and wanted to give her a few blows.
"Look there first, and then look at me. Are you sure this is something that can be given to a viscount?" Shien said speechlessly, "This is the center of the noble area. I'm afraid that the surrounding area is either the mansion of a marquis or the villa of a duke. Even they did not get this central location and live in this castle-like place. Are you sure I won't be sprayed to death by other people's saliva if I live there?"
This was no longer a question of whether the house was big or luxurious, but this location was not a place where a viscount should be.
How many dukes and marquises could only obediently stay at the side?
Viscount?
Sean was sure that as soon as he moved in as a viscount, the entire capital would be turned upside down the next day.
In the capital, there were many nobles who did not like Shien. Once Shien dared to move in, he would probably become the enemy of almost all the nobles.
Although Shien was not afraid, being afraid and not looking for trouble were two different things. Not to mention that this was arranged by someone else. If Shien accepted it without thinking, it would be a problem.
"Why would the kingdom give me such a place? This is obviously unreasonable, right? " Shien looked at Rosie with a face full of suspicion. His eyes swept over the graceful figure of Her Royal Highness, and then said, "Could it be that you are making things difficult for me?"
Hearing this, Rosie turned her head and looked away from Shien.
This reaction made Shien say another sentence.
"Goodbye."
He left without hesitation.
Shien turned around again and prepared to leave without hesitation.
"Aiya, wait." Rosie could only helplessly hold him back again. As she pulled him back, she said helplessly, "If it was not to compensate you for tolerating my stubbornness, I would not have given you such a place with my own rights. You can just accept it. Others want it but don't have it."
"I have to thank you." Shien laughed on the spot and said, "Don't think that I have not heard of it. Ever since it was built, it has never been given out. The history of its existence is as long as a thousand years, dating back to the hero Mithra, who was the founding king. So it is of great significance, and no one dares to casually move in, right?"
That's right, this was the residence of the hero Mithra, who founded the kingdom.
In other words, this was a place that even the royal family had to treat with caution. Except for the past few kings, no one had lived here before.
But now...
"Its owner seems to be you, Princess? Your Highness? " Shien said with a faint smile, "The most precious treasure of the kingdom, the only descendant of the hero who was recognized by Mithra's Holy Sword in a thousand years, the one known as the modern hero. The current owner of this place is you. It is a gift from the royal family to you after you came of age. Am I right?"
"... So you know all about it." Rosie suddenly smiled awkwardly and whispered, "Since you know all about it, what are you afraid of? Anyway, this place is mine. I can give it to whoever I want."
This sentence did not get any response from Shien.
He just silently pried Rosie's hand away and stepped back without making a sound.
Seeing that this guy was not going to give up on running away, Rosie simply hugged him.
"Anyway, you are also a hero. Others may not know, but I do." Rosie said stubbornly, "Didn't you say it yourself? It's better to give you a bigger place so that you can settle the dragon called You Lin here, right? This place is big enough! "
Only the last sentence was heard by Shien.
When Shien was hugged by Her Highness, he could not stay calm anymore. Now that he heard her words, his eyes involuntarily glanced down, feeling the touch and size of the place. In the end, he said something out of curiosity.
"It is indeed big enough."
After saying that, Shien regretted it.
Rosie was stunned at first. Then, she also noticed Shien's gaze and glanced at her body. She immediately understood something.
"You...!"
At that moment, Rosie's pretty face blushed and she glared at him.
That delicate and alluring look appeared on this unrivaled beauty of Her Highness, making Shien feel like he was about to fall in love.
The most unbearable thing was that Rosie did not let go of his hand.
She just silently hugged Shien. Although her face was very red, she did not let go of his hand. Instead, she tightened her grip.
"Dong dong — dong dong — dong dong —"
It was the sound of a heartbeat.
It was a very loud heartbeat.
Whether it was Shien or Rosie, their hearts were beating fast and violently. The ambiguous atmosphere began to appear.
Shien felt a little dry in his throat. He could not help but glance around.
Well, no one.
Which meant that no one would disturb them.
Then... should he do it?
How could he not take such a good opportunity?
Thinking of the two times before, whether it was Nyan or Tierre, he was the one who was forced to kiss. The only time he took the initiative to kiss someone was in his dream, and it was the maid's face. This made Shien feel even more humiliated.
So...
(Let's do it!)
Throw caution to the wind!
At that moment, Shien reached out and hugged Rosie.
This hug made Rosie's delicate body tremble violently.
"You...!"
Rosie raised her head and looked at Shien. Her pretty face was so red that it seemed like blood was about to drip out. Although her eyes were staring at Shien, they were already wet and full of steam.
Perhaps this Her Highness did not know how lethal this look of hers was.
Anyway, Shien felt that he could not take it anymore. Without hesitation, he lowered his head.
Rosie's face became redder and redder.
Finally, she closed her eyes.
