I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha
#53 - Witch Market
After entering Stonehenge, Wallace recited a spell.
Soon, a layer of mist enveloped Stonehenge. After the mist dissipated, a bustling street appeared before the two.
Many people on the street wore clothing similar to Wallace's, and there were also many civilians. All of these people had magical fluctuations on their bodies.
The so-called Wizard Market was located here.
Because it was close to the academy, any kind of business was profitable here. In addition, the academy often released some good goods, so there were many outsiders.
Most of the people who ran shops here were locals, but they were not necessarily from the Black Abyss Academy.
Wallace pointed to the distant mountains and said, "Look, that's our academy."
Roland looked up into the distance. Under the illumination of the stars and moon, the distant black mountains were shrouded in clouds and mist, and a magnificent castle stood on the summit.
That was the "Alexandra Arcane Academy," commonly known as the Black Abyss Academy.
Wallace patted Roland on the shoulder: "Let's go, let's do some business!"
Today was the weekend. There were many students wearing the gray robes of the Black Abyss Academy apprentices on the street. Many of them were freshmen.
It had been three months since the start of school, and many outstanding freshmen had already begun to go out and do tasks to earn extra money.
Looking at the energetic classmates, Roland was both excited and apprehensive.
They were all dressed very well.
The clothes Roland was wearing were actually good clothes that only nobles could afford, but compared to the wizards' clothes, they were very rustic.
Moreover, it was already tattered, covered in dirt and blood, and it was almost impossible to see its original appearance. As a result, the laborers before had regarded him as a wandering foreigner.
He looked at the clothes on his body and had some plans to buy new clothes.
'I wonder how much a decent wizard robe costs. There are also people wearing Demon Hunter leather armor, which looks very defensive, but it also looks very expensive.'
‘I heard that the Black Abyss Academy is a noble wizard academy, and tuition and accommodation fees are very high.’
Roland was a little nervous. He thought to himself: 'The damaged strange objects collected in the ruins should sell for a lot of magic stones, right?'
Many people on the road greeted Wallace, including people from the academy, outsiders who came to the academy to do business, wizards from other small academies nearby, or members of some wizard families near the Black Abyss Academy.
Many people knew Wallace. Seeing the magical fluctuations on his body, they came forward to congratulate him.
Even some people who were obviously formal wizards came over to greet him.
People like Wallace were like old scholars who had failed the imperial examinations for decades. Before he passed the exam, no one took him seriously, but once he passed, even the magistrate in the county office would come to congratulate him, sparing no praise.
After sending these guys away, Wallace stroked his beard and said, "Roland, don't be surprised. Once you advance to a high-level apprentice, you will still be very healthy at the age of one hundred and twenty. Although I look very old, who can guarantee that I won't suddenly advance to become a formal wizard overnight?"
“What’s more, I will definitely be promoted after I go back this time!”
The power of logistics is very great.
In fact, when Wallace first joined the logistics department at the age of 20, everyone believed that, given his background, as long as he advanced to a high-level apprentice, he would become the head of logistics.
At that time, Wallace was in the limelight, and was praised by everyone.
But later, as he got older, people gradually ignored him. He became a marginal figure in logistics. Later, he basically didn't come to the academy to work anymore.
Although this was the life script that Wallace had arranged for himself, in this century of mortal life, this demon had experienced the vicissitudes of the world.
He originally thought that after being reincarnated into the human world, although he would have humanity and personality, he would not be affected by life experiences. However, this experience in the mortal world deeply affected him.
Just like those angels who betrayed their faith and married humans after descending into the world. Wallace was no longer a pure demon. He already possessed true personality and humanity.
He even had loyalty, a small amount of morality, and a trace of justice.
This life gave the demon a great sense of substitution and a great deal of emotion. Sometimes he couldn't even tell who he was anymore.
Therefore, whenever he recalled the cold looks and ridicule he had suffered in the academy, a fire would burn in his heart.
— Don't bully a young demon for being poor!
If Miss hadn't grown up yet, if I wanted to keep a low profile, I could have advanced by casually finding a Demon Stone!
Previously, because Catherine's memory had not yet awakened, she lacked the ability to protect herself. Therefore, Wallace had always been low-key in the academy as a mid-level apprentice, and suffered a lot of cold looks.
Now, the time was ripe, and Wallace was finally able to stand up straight.
What he was showing now was the realm of a perfect apprentice, which looked like he could advance to a formal wizard at any time. Therefore, everyone believed that the butler of the Alexandra family would definitely be in charge of logistics next.
Therefore, those guys who once ignored him were now rushing to curry favor with this former old waste.
Hearing this, Roland also understood Wallace's character - his strength was mediocre, but he had someone above him.
En. In a while, after he advances to become a formal wizard, he will become a 'talented, experienced, and extremely powerful' Black Abyss wizard.
Before long, the two arrived on a bustling street.
Wallace said: "Roland. As a businessman, I used to have a little savings. Back then, I even built an altar for myself independently."
“Later, Miss was born, but she fell ill (her memory didn’t awaken). For Miss’s sake, I had to give up many things. I traveled around for Miss’s sake. I spent all my savings and connections.”
“Originally, I still had some magic stones left. I was going to go back to the academy and make a comeback with Miss. But the magic stones were all eaten by that dog bastard!”
“So, now both of us are penniless.”
After hearing Wallace's words, Roland was very moved.
He didn't know what Wallace was traveling around for the tutor's sake, but for these things, he dismantled his altar and sold his strange objects.
Roland asked curiously: "Brother Wallace, this time you came back, didn't the Alexandra family give you some activity funds?"
“Ahem, of course there are, and there are many, but the family has been short of liquid funds recently, so we have to wait for a while.”
Roland always felt that something was wrong. He thought to himself: 'Wallace said before that the family has declined. To what extent has it declined?'
Soon, the two stopped in front of a store.
It was called 'Skadi's Eye', a strange object store.
Looking at the impressive storefront in front of him, Roland said: "Brother Wallace, after earning this money today, we two poor guys should be able to turn over, right?"
Wallace smiled and said: "Hahaha, we will definitely turn over! Roland, I'm about to make a comeback. The goods sold today will be our first pot of gold!"
Hearing this, Roland suddenly felt a little unsure.
‘Big brother, why are you setting a flag for no reason!’
Roland looked at the noble freshmen on the street again, and thought to himself: 'The many things I risked my life to pick up, shouldn't it be too much to sell for two hundred magic stones?'
