Of course, Yu Ling was completely unaware of Clarence's inner thoughts.
He was overjoyed to have acquired a new life-extending artifact and was returning to his dorm with a smile on his face. There he saw Andy, the red-haired fellow with a mournful expression, waiting for him on the living room sofa.
"Why are you back so late? What did you and Lord Clarence talk about?"
We didn't just talk about things, we did something else too—we even got face-to-face and close together, something we've never done before!
In a rare good mood, Yu Ling felt happy to be a little mischievous. Not only did she think so, but she also said directly, "We talked about something that could take our relationship to the next level."
The naive and silly Enriz: "Oh, he wants to take you as his apprentice? Or do you want to become his master?"
Although the logic was flawed, the guess was strangely correct!
His reaction was too dazed, looking like he was half asleep—Enriz was exhausted, but having waited so long, it would be a waste not to bring him back.
He never expected that by the time Yu Ling returned, it would be almost dawn. The joy he had initially felt about sharing his good grades with Yu Ling had been worn away by the waiting.
"Uh, you're right." What else could Yu Ling say? Sometimes, saying things too bluntly would lose their meaning. He said, "Go to sleep. Even though the midterms are over, you can't let your guard down."
"Haha—okay~ goodnight Roy."
Anliz yawned and went back to his bedroom. Yu Ling looked at the countdown on the notification board and saw that there were still ten days left to live. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The missions were getting harder and harder.
This lifespan isn't something that only increases and never decreases; the lifespan he borrowed from Anlitz has been dwindling and is almost used up. However, Clarence, who will lose his overflowing life force in a short period, will definitely be weak for a while, and it will be difficult to provide him with so much life again.
With two stable life force suppliers, 'Clarence' and 'Anliz', the rest—finding a teacher, being assigned to a class, attending classes, and absorbing life force—proceeded in an orderly fashion.
Therefore, Yu Ling confidently shifted her focus entirely to the smaller 'Klosen'.
With his flawless, flawless beauty, 'Klosen' is quite famous among noblewomen, but due to his profession, he rarely appears among male nobles, making this magician with magical talent so unknown.
Therefore, if Yu Ling wants to give up the profession randomly assigned to her by the background board and rebuild a more prestigious image for herself, she absolutely cannot stay in the royal city.
After his main character advanced to a novice mage, his secondary character also rose to become a novice wood mage. Wood magic, with its healing abilities, is quite popular among mages, and now he can finally go out and explore.
Whether it's setting the stage for side quests or getting more Fate points for your main character in the main storyline, it's much better than continuing to make money in the Royal City.
Dressed in a black robe that concealed his exquisite and intricate attire, and with a beautiful openwork mask covering his face that possessed an irresistible aura, 'Klosen' embarked on his first long journey, heading straight for the town where the protagonist group, with whom the original owner had a love-hate relationship, was active.
Where the strong gather, it's the best place to fish in troubled waters. With his excellent qualities, he could easily make a lot of lives as a doctor.
Samata, a town in Larral, is famous for its fine wines, attracting a constant stream of travelers.
Some people are just traveling and stopping here temporarily, while others are attracted by the beautiful scenery and wine or other places and settle down here. There are often new faces here.
On this day, a restaurant owner sold his shop and took his whole family on a trip, but the shop was re-hung with a sign that said it sold magic potions, the kind that non-magicians should not enter.
The shop owner is a mysterious man who wears a mask, concealing himself completely, but the potions inside are of very good quality, and many magicians who stumbled in have become loyal repeat customers.
And this mysterious shop owner is none other than Yu Ling, a delicate and handsome young man with green hair and blue eyes—'Klosson'.
Of course, he also has many other part-time jobs, such as healing unlucky guys who get hurt in fights with monsters as a wood-type mage.
Although he is only at the level of a novice mage, his spellcasting skills, fluency, and the storage and recovery of magic power are all top-notch.
In short, in terms of effectiveness alone, it's comparable to those high-level magicians on the market. Even though it's located in a remote shop that used to be a closed restaurant, business is surprisingly good.
The potions were made by Yu Ling herself after the system cat went out to collect magic herbs. Apart from buying some empty potion bottles, it was practically a risk-free business. Although it couldn't compare to her old profession, it was enough to cover the expenses on her main account.
As a magician, even though he is a wood-type mage with "low offensive capabilities", 'Klosen' has earned the respect of many people and has not had any major troubles since he opened for business.
However, he has yet to meet any of the main characters, whose bodies overflow with life force, or any other powerful individuals with similar abilities.
On this day, an old acquaintance stepped into 'Closon's' potion shop.
"Three healing potions, one purification potion, and two more monster lures."
With long, silvery-white hair and pale silver eyes, he was none other than the Holy Light Mage, Ansel Terry, who had smashed a ball of light onto Yu Ling's head.
'Closon' took the potion he ordered from the shelf and placed it on the counter, his mask concealing his interested expression.
"I would like to offer 328 gold coins, but I think a powerful Holy Light mage like you probably wouldn't need these kinds of potions."
Ansel raised his hand, took the potion, and tossed down a pile of gold coins. He then gave the mysterious potion shop owner a meaningful look and said:
"...This was purchased for someone else."
"I see!"
"Closon" exclaimed exaggeratedly.
"You are truly a considerate and strong person."
Since Ansel is here, the other main characters should be nearby. My decision was indeed correct.
Watching Ansel leave, 'Klosen' went around to the small storeroom converted from the kitchen at the back of the shop and replenished the potions he had just used.
"The original wood-elemental members of the main character group were severely injured in a battle with the original owner's forces, and there is currently no effective healing power..."
'Closon' leaned against the counter, one hand supporting his head, his emerald green eyes narrowing into a beautiful arc.
"Holy Light Mages excel at removing negative status effects and healing most bleeding-related injuries, but for limb regeneration or rapid recovery, you still need Wood-type magic."
