Chapter 345: The President’s Inauguration Ceremony
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Based on Lin Li’s current magical attainments, it was more than sufficient for him to be a mentor for an Archmage, not to mention those two apprentices that had just started learning. Lin Li was somebody that had mastered more than ten core magical mantras. His understanding of magic surpassed that of an average Archmage. In this aspect, even those powerhouses that lived for more than a hundred years like Andoine might not be better than he.
That night, the castellan had brought his son and daughter along, and Lin Li did not waste time. He quietly spoke with the castellan for a bit, and took out a notebook from his pocket. This notebook had been kept since Lin Li had just arrived at Anril and started learning magic from Andoine in the Sunset Mountains. There were a few low-level spell incantations written in the notebook, as well as some know-how and skills that Lin Li had come up with.
Of course, these skills and know-how were not very profound. After all, Lin Li had been a total newbie in magic back then, even though he had a terrifying talent. When he first came to Jarrosus, he only had superficial understanding even when it came to common knowledge. The know-how and skills that he came up with back then could only be described as “crude”.
However, for the castellan’s son and daughter, these crude know-how and skills were more than sufficient. After all, they were just apprentices that had just started. Even entering the state of meditation was hard for them. What they required was not profound magical knowledge, but the interest and passion for magic. Only passion and interest would allow them to tide through the boring journey that was learning magic.
Actually, Lin Li did not have to spend so much effort. Just casually teaching these two newbie mage apprentices some basic knowledge would occupy them for months. After all, everyone did not take all of these was something important. Even the castellan himself was just trying to use this relationship to overtake William.
However, Lin Li did not want to do that…
One of the reasons was because he wanted to return the favor to the castellan. No matter how it is phrased, it was only through the castellan’s help that Lin Li had managed to escape from that Paladin’s group of four during tonight’s incident. If the castellan had not provided any cover for him, both parties might have already clashed after the banquet has ended. A Paladin as well as three Bishops… Lin Li did not have the confidence that he would definitely be victorious. Furthermore, he did not wish to provoke the Brilliance Shrine through this incident. This was the Breezy Plains, which was in the Brilliance Shrine’s vicinity. It was not wise to provoke the Brilliance Shrine in this area.
The issue at Roland City had already reached the end of a phase. The food that was worth a million gold coins had already been dealt with last night—Sienna did his job swiftly. Before the banquet ended last night, he had already settled this issue with the castellan. The food that was worth a million gold coins would be delivered to Doland City within a week.
Since the issue of food could be settled, there was no need to stay in Roland City any longer. Furthermore, Lin Li did not forget that the four fellas from the Brilliance Shrine were still concerned about him. If he stayed longer, there might come a day when he would be stopped by them. By that time, there might be another problem that could not be avoided.
This was a place where one was apt to get into trouble. The earlier he left, the better.
After packing up his luggage simply, he called up Norfeller, Ujfalusi, Jason, and the rest. He spoke to Sienna for a bit before he entered the carriage that would take him to Doland.
A tower at the outskirts of Black Clouds Town was piercing through the clouds. From afar, it looked mysterious and solemn. Lin Li had just gotten off the carriage when he met Herza. After not seeing this old man for more than ten days, he clearly saw the latter had become thinner.
However, this was understandable. When Lin Li left, almost everything was thrown onto the old man. He had to handle all sorts of chores and supervised the construction of the tower. It was already a feat for him not to collapse from exhaustion after all those days.
“Felic, you are back…” When the old man saw Lin Li, he greeted him anxiously.
“What happened, Mr Herza? Did something happen at Black Clouds Town?”
“No, no, let’s go. I’ll tell you as we walk…” The old man dragged Lin Li into Black Clouds Town. “It will be your President’s Inauguration Ceremony in five days. There will be a lot of prominent figures invited at that time. I have already settled the invitation letters. Come with me and see if there is anything that I have missed…”
“So fast?” Lin Li had a shock.
“There’s no choice. This is the decision of the Supreme Council.”
Herza brought Lin Li to his living quarters, and quickly brought out a thick stack of invitation letters. “Take a look at these invitation letters first. If there is nothing missing, I will get somebody to deliver them tomorrow. Additionally, there are some details about the President’s Inauguration Ceremony that I need you to confirm yourself.”
“Let me say this, Mr Herza. Why is the Supreme Council so anxious this time?” Lin Li flipped through the invitation letters in his hands while chatting with Herza.
“I have just received the order as well. As to why it was decided so, this is something I cannot know. Perhaps you should consult your Mentor Andoine. He is somebody that has the highest chance to be an adjudicator. He should be well-informed about this aspect…”
