That's a fake elf

In fact, the reason why Li Ang rejected Lothar was very simple, because Lothar was a rune master.

The Talisman Master is a priest of the [God of Fire and Forging]. If you want to learn the magic of the Talisman Master, you must change your profession to become a Talisman Master.

Apostates are highly discriminated against in various denominations.

As a former priest in the Griffin Kingdom, Li Ang returned to Fanathil and switched to the moral field to teach as an archdruid. Because of this identity, he was once ostracized by the elders of the Druid Temple.

It stands to reason that the Archdruid is already a senior priest in the Druid sect.

In Fanasil, people generally hold high-paying jobs such as college tutors, justices, and senior advisors.

But it was Li Ang's turn. Because of his experience as the pastor of the Holy Church, even the elder's disciple, the son of the Duke, was eventually sent outside Cuiting to work as a ranger.

It is not that Li Ang has not reported this problem to his teacher Cruise, but Cruise also said that he can only help Li Ang fight for external release.It is impossible to retain Cuiting.

His current position as Lord of Purple Shirt Ridge is the result of Mr. Cruise's efforts.

But if he suddenly becomes a Talisman Master after returning, I am afraid that not only will the Druid Temple be in trouble, but even his teacher Cruz will be disgraced.

There's no way he wouldn't care about this.

"You are thinking about it. If you become my disciple, I will not only pass on all my skills to you, but I can also entrust you with this lightning hammer."

Seeing Li Ang turn around and walk out of the castle hall, Lothar quickly picked up the hammer and followed.

That flattering look almost shocked all the dwarf craftsmen.

"There's no way I can be a Talisman Master with you."

Taking out his [Meteor Gun] from the system space, Li Ang showed a look of impatience on his face:

"Otherwise, when I return to Fanathil, those Druid elders will try their best to strip me of my title and territory?"

"Are you worried about this?"

Lothar stopped in front of Li Ang, put away the hammer, patted his chest, and said with a cheerful smile:

"You can rest assured that I will never force you to change your profession to become a Talisman Master, as long as you admit your master-disciple relationship with me."

"You have awakened the focused eye of the high elf, so changing your profession to a Talisman Master does not make much sense to you at all."

"Why do you feel so weird coming from the mouth of a senior cleric like you?" Li Ang looked at Lothar in surprise and couldn't help complaining.

"Haha, if you are like me and have been wandering outside for more than 400 years, and the gods ignore your prayers, you will lose trust in the gods just like me."

Lothar's beard trembled, seeming to be sarcastic and angry, and his expression became extremely complicated.

"..." The corners of Li Ang's mouth twitched.

He is from another world and does not believe in gods. Even when facing the goddess Asha, he only treats her as the boss.

If she was in awe of the gods, Asha would not choose him to be the god-slayer, to kill the clones of the gods, or even fight against the evil gods.

"Since there is no need to change jobs, there seems to be no problem in being your disciple."

Li Ang rolled his eyes and a smile appeared on his lips.

He had also tried using rune magic in actual combat before, but the effect was somewhat unsatisfactory, and he gradually forgot about it.

But now if there is a master figure to guide, then why not?

He is just carrying the title of disciple. Anyway, he has already recognized three teachers, and it doesn't hurt to have one more.

"Hahahaha, then it's settled. Starting from tomorrow, you will come to my room every night and I will teach you the basics of rune magic."

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Lothar couldn't help but patted Li Ang on the shoulder. When he saw that he was motionless, he suddenly smiled.

"Why does it have to be at night?" Li Ang couldn't help but ask.

"Don't I still have a job during the day? It's not a good habit to abandon work for personal reasons." Lothar pointed to the surrounding construction site with a serious expression on his face.

"Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Lothar." Hearing this, Li Ang finally bent down and acknowledged the teacher.

"You should call me old man. If you remember me well, you can bring more good wine produced by Hrest when you visit me in the future."

Lothar glanced at Li Ang, stroked his beard, and said with a smile:

"Since I was exiled, I haven't tasted the taste of my hometown for many years."

"There will be a chance, don't worry." Li Ang vowed.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Queen Anne's Revenge

In the restaurant, Li Ang yawned and ate grilled fish, and his head almost got stuck into the borscht several times. Fortunately, Gao Lan held him back.

When the people around him saw this, they all showed surprise.

"What's wrong with Mr. Li Ang? Since he came back four days ago, he has always been listless during the day."

Helen couldn't help but say after serving a plate of sashimi to her sister Nina.

"Haha, my body has been hollowed out."

Nina picked up a thin slice of sashimi and stuffed it into her mouth, chewing it. She glanced at Li Ang, who had heavy dark circles under his eyes, and couldn't help but mock.

At this moment, the women present immediately began to look at each other with a strong sense of scrutiny in their eyes, and they began to suspect that the other party had escaped.

Even Gao Lan, who had always been very calm, couldn't help but cast an intriguing look at Li Ang.

"Don't talk nonsense, I've been busy with business these days." Li Ang, who was stared at by a group of women with terrifying eyes, suddenly became energetic and looked confident.

"Business? Propagating offspring, isn't that business?" As if she was just watching the fun and did not mind having too much trouble, Nina showed a malicious smile and started to sow discord.

"Lord Li Ang, since we are reproducing offspring, why didn't you come to me?" Linali looked at Li Ang aggrievedly and couldn't help but stick to her.

"Cough cough cough." Gao Lan coughed a few times, the purpose being self-evident.

"Don't lie, I've actually been studying rune magic with Master Lothar these past few nights."

Reluctantly, he pulled out his arm from Linali's arms, and a light of mana appeared on Li Ang's fingertips, carving an extremely complex rune on the table.

"The table has been strengthened, and its hardness seems to be comparable to that of cold steel?" Gao Lan knocked on the table with the hilt of [Dirandal], but the table made a sound of metal collision at this time.

"That's right, this is the result of my hard work these days." Li Ang sighed and couldn't help but rub his aching temples.

Learning rune magic was far more complicated than he imagined.

Even with the assistance of [Eye of Concentration], it takes a lot of mental energy to learn a rune.

But the effort is not without reward.

His original lv2 rune magic has been upgraded to level 20. Not only has he received a [-]% bonus, but he has also learned [Rapidity] [Dodge] [Energy Recovery] [Toughness] [Anti-Magic] [Strongness] [Aggravation]. Wait for low-level runes,

The most important thing is that, with the assistance of Lothar, he used the existing four silver runes of [Swift], [Slaughter], [Growth] and [Armor Penetration] and low-level runes to complete the four rune combinations.

[Rune combination - War Madman]: Increase damage by 25% and armor penetration by 25%.

[Rune Combination—Energy Filling]: Increases the recovery speed of life and mana by 50%.

[Rune Combination - Indestructible]: Increases physical defense and magic defense by 50 points.

[Rune combination - Spirit of Swiftness]: Increase movement and attack speed by 30%.

The original runes consume a lot of energy, have a short duration, and require the use of magic materials as carriers, which have many limitations.

But after completing the rune combination, this problem was solved. Now he only needs to use some stones and wood that can be found everywhere to temporarily make amplifying props.

Although it is not yet at the level where Lothar can easily condense energy runes and bless them on people, he can already join in the battle.

"Hey, it seems that I came at the right time and was able to eat Helen's cooking."

"Your Highness Leona!"

Looking at the people walking into the restaurant, Helen showed an ecstatic expression. Although Nina on the side was reluctant, she also stood up and bowed.
