I have a Synthesizer

Walking through the Jay Society, Klein felt a rare sense of ease. The atmosphere of learning and research here was much better than in the academy.

Moreover, there was no need to worry about external interference, such as from the Dark Crusaders and the Skull Society.

Just one conversation with Lance and Marian gave him a feeling of great benefit.

This made Klein feel more and more that joining the Jay Society was, for the time being, a wise decision.

Feeling somewhat cheerful, Klein looked at Lance beside him and suddenly became gossipy.

"Senior Lance, do you like Miss Marian very much?"

"Ah? Ah, you can tell?"

With your ability, 1000 Thales should be easy, right?

Are you doing this to have more opportunities to get close to Marian?"

Lance looked up at the sky, then suddenly smiled.

"Klein, has no one ever told you that if you always pry into other people's secrets, you won't find friends."

Klein shrugged. You call that a secret?

"I remember the first time I came here, that magician man who spoke with a monkey said that Senior Lance was very stupid.

I didn't quite believe it before, but seeing what you're doing now, I can understand why he said that.

I'm afraid anyone with eyes can see Senior Lance's affection for Marian! That should also include Miss Marian herself."

Lance nodded.

As a top-tier Tier 2 sorcerer, a genius in everyone's eyes, and an elite member of the Jay Society's executive department.

If others said he was stupid, it certainly wasn't saying he lacked talent, but rather that he seemed very stupid in dealing with emotional issues.

Everyone knew he liked Marian, even Marian herself knew.

It seemed that only he himself thought he was hiding it well. This kind of self-deception seemed really stupid.

So, being this stupid, didn't Lance himself know? Of course, he knew. He suddenly smiled and said to Klein.

"Sometimes, there's really no need to be with someone you like!"

Klein frowned slightly. This kind of statement seemed more like an escape, at least in the education he had received, it was basically like this.

"I don't agree with that view.

Miss Marian clearly already knows your feelings, but she hasn't rejected you coldly.

She keeps letting you owe money, and keeps playing the 'no money' act with you, which can only mean she also has feelings for you.

Why don't you confess directly and take it a step further with her?"

Lance shook his head and suddenly coughed violently, this time even coughing up blood.

Lance raised his hand, stopping Klein from trying to support him.

"A step further is the abyss."

"The abyss?" Klein was a little puzzled, but he knew very well that Lance must have his reasons for saying this.

"Yes, an endless abyss, like the hell where demons live."

Lance suddenly turned to look at Klein, his eyes serious, and said.

"I like Marian very much, but I want her to live safely even more.

The abyss is beneath my feet, and I could fall into it at any time, so I won't be with Marian.

Klein, can you understand what I mean? Or rather, is there someone you want to protect?"

Lance didn't continue to press, and Klein didn't answer in detail.

In this world, he was like an outsider, someone he wanted to protect... …

Looking at Lance walking ahead, savoring what he said, Klein frowned slightly and followed.

… …

No longer mentioning heavy topics like feelings, they switched to talking about things like magic, bloodlines, and potions, and Lance seemed to liven up again.

Along the way, he and Klein talked and laughed, finding a lot to discuss. The two walked for a long time before arriving at the magic district.

Lance laughed from time to time, making Klein a little nervous, because having a guy standing next to you who seemed like an idiot was a bit unbearable.

Fortunately, after arriving at the magic district, Lance's state returned to normal.

Confidence and a peaceful aura returned to him.

"Klein, do you know why the Jay Society is so strong?"

"Not very clear." Klein shook his head. He really didn't know.

"Because in the Jay Society, there are no taboos."

Lance stopped in the bustling magic district, while Klein stood behind him.

Here, people exchanged all kinds of magical knowledge, resources, and materials, just like an advanced scientific research institution.

"All organizations, remember, all, even including cults, have restrictions on the research of magic and martial arts.

Even the Skull Brotherhood and the Eye of Grela, some magic, martial arts, and potions are also listed as taboos.

But the Jay Society doesn't. All directions of magic research, poisons, disasters, destruction, as long as you dare to think, then do it.

In the Jay Society, no one will stop you from conducting research on taboos.

If something happens, the Jay Society will send someone to personally kill you, but before something happens, the Jay Society will never stop you from conducting research."

Klein's heart thumped, savoring the meaning of these words.

The Jay Society would not stop forbidden magic, but if something happened, the Jay Society would take the initiative to eliminate the perpetrators.

Letting forbidden things develop, but also not allowing disasters to happen.

This approach sounded somewhat contradictory, but undeniably, the Jay Society could obtain the most cutting-edge technology from it.

"The Jay Society doesn't allow disasters in order to give an explanation to the empire and the people.

But most mages understand the actual situation. The birth of every special magic is accompanied by a large number of failed studies.

It's like simple healing potions and magic power potions.

They are just the two successful examples in countless alchemical experiments, and no one knows how many failed.

In the study of necromantic corruption, mages learned that magic activation can resist aging.

Summoned otherworldly demons can use their bloodlines to make our bodies stronger.

The study of space magic is even more full of destruction and death.

In the Jay Society's dictionary, no magic is purely evil. If there is, then we haven't discovered its useful side yet."

Klein didn't like listening to others preach, but he wasn't repulsed by Lance's explanation at this time.

He also understood what Lance meant. In many people's eyes, he was a special alchemist.

Lance was telling him these things so that he wouldn't be bound by so-called taboos. In the Jay Society, there were no taboos.

If Klein had any forbidden abilities or potions, he could research them in the Jay Society without anyone stopping him.

And don't consider being spied on by others, because in the Jay Society, there aren't many people who don't research forbidden abilities.

"I understand what you mean, Senior Lance."
