Now suddenly he has become one of them, no, he will become one of them in the future.

"Is Ye Jiu also a magician?" Lorian asked curiously. "You can use magic too."

"Me? I don't want to be a magician, I'm a witch! I'll be the most powerful witch on the entire continent!"

She will carry on Selena's legacy and become a great witch!

If it weren't for her, Ye Jiu would have died on an unknown night, just like any other orphan.

Lorian immediately changed his tune, "Then I don't want to be a magician either. I can be a witch like you, no, a wizard?"

Ye Jiu was amused by him and laughed heartily, clutching her stomach. "There are only witches in this world, but no male witches."

“Then I’ll be the first one.” Lorian didn’t understand why she was laughing. “I want to be like you.”

Ye Jiu realized he was serious, so she suppressed her smile, thought about it seriously for a moment, and then decided to respect his decision.

"Of course you can! There's no law that forbids male wizards." Ye Jiu patted his shoulder. "Okay, then you're definitely the first male wizard on the continent of Meria!"

“Yes, I want to be a male wizard,” Lorian agreed with her.

"Alright, future wizard, let's move on to the next stage of our studies."

Ye Jiu then said, "Give me your hand."

Lorian extended his hand, and Ye Jiu placed her wand in his palm.

"I'll buy you a new one another day. Try mine first."

Ye Jiu put her hands behind her back and said slowly, "To learn this illusion technique, it's very easy. Calm down and repeat the incantation after me."

"Just hold the wand and point it at your target. Remember not to get distracted."

"I'm about to chant a spell, so listen carefully."

“camouflagedeceit

Lorian repeated haltingly, but the tree he was pointing to remained unchanged.

"You can read it without any problem, but you need to read it more fluently. Just read it a few more times until you get used to it."

Upon hearing this, Lorrian began to silently recite the letters. After repeating them several times, he picked up his wand again and stared at the tree in front of him.

“camouflagedeceit

As soon as he finished speaking, the tree disappeared from his sight.

He looked at Ye Jiu in astonishment, "I...I succeeded?"

He jogged to the spot where the tree had been, reached out tentatively to touch it, and unsurprisingly touched rough bark, but there was nothing there in his sight.

Ye Jiu nodded with a smile, "Yes, you succeeded!"

He stroked it repeatedly; the rough texture of tree bark rubbed against his palm. The real touch and the completely disjointed emptiness in his vision told him that his magic had deceived his eyes.

"This is amazing!" Lorian was so overjoyed at successfully casting the spell that he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

Ye Jiu put her hands behind her back. Oh dear, she's still just a kid. It's normal for her to find this kind of thing novel.

Ye Jiu completely forgot that she was even more surprised than him when she learned her first spell. She hugged Selena and jumped around excitedly all day.

Lorian quickly calmed down and even began to think about applying the same method to other situations: "Could I cover my ears using the same method?"

"Hmm... that won't work, it'll make people see you don't have ears." Ye Jiu rubbed her nose. "Next time, next time I'll teach you how to change the color and shape of objects in other people's eyes!"

That's all for today. It's getting late, let's get ready for bed.

After saying that, Ye Jiu turned around and walked to the door of the small house. Before entering, Ye Jiu looked back at him. Luo Rui'an was still standing not far away, seemingly staring blankly at his hands.

"Lorian! Come back, let's stop here for today, it's too late."

He looked up at the sound, nodded after a slight pause, and strode to the door to enter with Ye Jiu.

"When learning magic for the first time, be careful to use it in moderation. Using spells too often can cause dizziness and headaches, which is very uncomfortable. Congratulations on taking your first step in learning magic!"

"Okay, I got it!" Lorian handed the wand to Ye Jiu. "Here you go."

Ye Jiu initially wanted to let him play with it, but then she remembered how she had played with it all night and was so dizzy the next day that she couldn't even stand up. Due to her distrust of people's self-control, Ye Jiu took the wand carefully.

"Okay, let's get ready for bed. Goodnight."

"good evening!"

...

Lorien's appearance completely took over all of Ye Jiu's daily chores, including but not limited to washing clothes and cooking.

Whenever Ye Jiu tried to help him, he would panic and almost burst into tears. After this happened several times, Ye Jiu stopped trying to help him.

After careful consideration, she concluded that he was afraid of losing his value, since he was currently living off her and using her resources, which might be a lingering effect of his previous life.

He was afraid of any moment that might anger Ye Jiu.

If she doesn't want to participate in housework, then so be it. Ye Jiu is happy to have some free time, and she has taught him some miscellaneous magic, such as cleaning spells, so washing dishes and clothes is not a very hard job.

Ye Jiu's daily life consisted of reading books, practicing magic, studying potions, and then lying in the doorway basking in the sun.

Honestly, the happiness of not having to worry about anything is beyond your imagination.

Luo Rui'an was practically feeding Ye Jiu.

Now it's been three months since Luo Rui'an stayed by Ye Jiu's side. He's started to grow taller and taller, probably because he's not eating enough. He's become tall and thin like a bamboo pole.

Now, you can't see any trace of his former thinness on him; he's now as tall as Ye Jiu.

Moreover, he also has some talent in magic and has learned a lot from Ye Jiu.
