Latis touched his thick hair, glanced at the dumbfounded Amber, and suddenly frowned.
"What? Turns out I'm pretty good... I wonder if I can beat Ate after I level up again, hehe, I really want to see her submit to my tyranny..."
He subtly wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth, waved his hand in front of April's eyes, and asked:
"Have all the necessary records been completed? Can we approve the construction of the mage tower now?"
"Oh! It's done, it's done!" April hurriedly channeled magic into the typewriter. Watching the record being gradually inscribed, she suddenly seemed to remember something and asked:
"Lord Latis, you just mentioned that your mentor is also applying for a business license. Do you have a preferred location? The nearest vacant lot with enough space to set up a shop is probably seven or eight miles away from the inner city..."
“Yes,” Latis nodded. “It’s the small hill about a hundred meters from the gate of the spire wall.”
"Huh? There?" April asked in surprise.
"Although there is indeed a path leading up that mountain, there's almost no buildable area in the middle! It's all uneven hills. Are you sure you want to choose that place?"
“That’s right.” Latis gave a confident smile.
“Okay…” April tried to suppress her surprise, shook her head, wrote the location on the contract, and then said:
"Lord Naratis, please take this contract to the front desk to pay the fees."
"Huh? The cost?"
Latis's smile froze instantly.
"That's right. If we give you the entire mountain, the floor area will be about 2,700 square meters. The land price in the outer city is about 46 gold whites, while the price for royal family members is half price at 23 gold whites. Based on the land price coefficient of 0.1 for non-buildable area, you will need to pay 6,200 gold whites."
Latis tremblingly took the contract, looked at the price on it, and suddenly felt a heartache so intense he could hardly breathe.
Chapter 110 Is he really suitable to be the male protagonist of a doujinshi?
"There are less than a hundred gold whites left..."
Latis walked out of the gates of the Mage Association, glanced back at the association in a daze, and suddenly understood why everyone called him "The Mage's Misfortune House".
"I feel like my life has slipped away along with those six thousand gold coins... With only one hundred gold coins left, my life is already like a candle flickering in the wind..."
He leaned against the wall and wiped away his tears.
"The last time I felt this way was when I ordered a life-size figure that cost over ten thousand yuan... Damn it, why did human society even have money as a form of currency? I wish I could pay for it with my body..."
"That's so powerful!"
The sudden sound behind him startled Latis. He whirled around and looked in horror at the girl he had just brushed past. She was starry-eyed, clenching her fists and shouting:
"Your test score is really high, you're a test genius!"
"W-What toilet hog?!" Latis instinctively took a step back, covering his chest with his hands and shouting:
"What are you talking about?!"
Suppressing his excitement, Ye Ye said in a passionate voice:
"I just heard your test score, it's over 1.0! This is the first time I've ever heard of a test score exceeding 1. You're simply the best of the best. Can I use my photo-remembering technique on you? Please! You're practically a born doujinshi protagonist!"
"I loved you, but I won't date you. Save my mom, save the baby!" Latis shouted incoherently, his face pale, as he frantically sprinted up the wall.
Night after night, her eyes sparkled as she watched Latis run away, the image-remembering spell in her hand slowly taking shape...
……
"Mom..."
Latis wiped the sweat from his brow and muttered:
"The mages of Lundia are terrifying..."
He calmed his breathing and looked around at the surrounding buildings.
"57 Tianhai Street, how did I end up at Jennifer's house? Oh well, since I'm already here, I'll go and give her the marine life ball first."
Latis straightened his clothes and knocked on the door of the mansion.
……
[Amateur sorcerer who's a full-time illustrator: Jenny Jenny! Why aren't you up yet? Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened!]
[Captain Jenny: I'm off work Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! (Annoyed)! What's up? I was planning to sleep until noon and then play the illusion game.]
[An amateur warlock who's primarily an artist: I was taking a quiz just now, and I ran into a quiz king at the Mage's Guild. I begged him for ages before I finally got a picture of him! Look, [picture][picture] doesn't he look perfect as the male lead in a doujinshi?!]
[Captain Jenny: ...I'm awesome!!!]
[An amateur sorcerer who's a full-time artist: Right, right?]
[Mr. Silver, the Mage's Hand: What are you talking about?! Your test score has been sent to the office, and now all the teachers in the grade know I have a student who failed the weekly test! You've ruined my professional reputation, how are you going to compensate me?!]
[An amateur sorcerer who is a full-time artist: I, I didn't mean to... I wasn't feeling well today, plus I didn't sleep well last night, and I had diarrhea this morning...]
[Mr. Silver, the Mage's Hand: I've arrived at the academy. Come to my office.]
[An amateur sorcerer who is a full-time artist: I am dead. If you need anything, burn some paper money for me...]
[Captain Jenny: You know what? This is actually Gouzi-ge (trying not to laugh)...]
[Amateur sorcerer who's a full-time artist: What?! Holy crap! I'll change the group owner and Gouzi's comics to look like this right now!]
[Mr. Silver, the Mage's Hand: ?]
[Note: "Mr. Silver, the Mage's Hand" has kicked "The Amateur Warlock, a Professional Painter" out of the group chat.]
"Hahahaha!" Jennifer tumbled off the soft bed, her shoulders shaking. She finally couldn't hold back her laughter, and as she stood up, clutching her back, she silently chanted to herself:
"Brother Gouzi, you're really famous now!"
Suddenly, another message flashed on the [Hand of the Mage] beacon. Jennifer glanced at it and sat up straight in surprise:
"so smart?!"
[Note: "Mr. Silver, the Hand of the Mage" has added "The Amateur Warlock, a Professional Painter" to the group chat.]
[Mr. Silver, the Mage's Hand: The school just announced a joint meeting of the three schools, to be held at our Qing Teng Academy. Amateur artist, go hold up a sign that says "Welcome Latis" and wait for him at the school gate.]
[An amateur sorcerer who's a full-time artist: I won't...]
[Note: "Mr. Silver, the Hand of the Mage" has banned "Amateur Warlock, a Professional Painter" from muting for 24 hours.]
……
Jennifer disconnected the beacon link, scratched her head, and sat on the bed.
How did he suddenly become so famous?
A sense of crisis suddenly welled up in her heart.
"No, no, I was thinking of inviting him to play games together in the next few days. What if he's too busy? Well, I'll go find him now!"
Jennifer opened the closet absentmindedly, took off her nightgown without focusing her gaze, and took out the oversized short-sleeved shirt and black culottes that she often wore on her days off.
Tuk-tuk-tuk...
A knocking sound suddenly rang out, startling Jennifer. She walked to the door and looked downstairs.
"At this hour, the butler should be out buying fresh ingredients with the maids... Is it a letter? He should leave it at the door after knocking for a while..."
Jennifer? Are you there?
Latis's puzzled voice came from outside the door. Jennifer paused, then a joyful smile instantly spread across her face, and she shouted:
"I'm here! I'm here! I'm coming right now!"
……
"I thought Jennifer went to work early this morning, haha, why do I, this idle young man, always think about these naughty things..."
Latis yawned, and hearing the clattering sounds from inside the door, he knew that Jennifer had definitely jumped down the stairs again, just like before.
"Damn, a knight's body is just so good, a knight's body..."
The heavy door was suddenly pulled open, and Latis squinted at Jennifer, who was incredibly bright in the morning sun. The next second, his eyes widened instantly.
Beneath the thin undershirt, the chest, outlined by the sunlight, swayed gently. The knight's shapely figure resembled vibrant branches and leaves, instantly making him feel vibrant as well.
Looking down along the firm curves of her abdomen, pristine white printed panties peek out from under the unfinished culottes, revealing a touch of childlike innocence against her powerful thighs.
Beneath her smooth calves, she wore a pair of soft, long cotton socks. The socks were not pulled up at the moment, but rather lazily piled on her slender ankles. In that instant, Latis seemed to smell the aroma of the bed and the warm scent of the sun that belonged only to knights.
"It's just so good..." Latis murmured, expressing his true feelings.
"Hey……"
Jennifer's voice snapped Latis out of his reverie. He looked up at Jennifer, whose eyes held a hint of shyness, and said without changing his expression:
"Good morning, Jennifer, the weather is so white today..."
"Drink up, and take this punch!"
Jennifer lightly punched Latis on the shoulder, then snorted and pulled him into the mansion.
Actually, it wouldn't be so bad to get kicked by you again...
Latis was reluctantly pushed onto the sofa by Jennifer, who watched as she casually put on the loose-fitting shirt, her gaze sweeping over her slightly arched feet, and she chuckled to herself.
"It's like this, I have a gift..."
"By the way, I heard there's a joint meeting of three schools..."
The two spoke at the same time, then both paused in surprise.
"Let me go first..."
"Let me speak first!"
"Hey, shouldn't the other person speak first in this situation?! What's wrong with you, little knight?!"
Latis reluctantly gestured for them to proceed, then shook his head at Jennifer's smug smile.
“That’s how it is!” Jennifer snorted, sat on the sofa, lifted her foot, and pulled her sock up to mid-calf. She looked at Latis’s face, smiled mysteriously, and said:
"I have inside information! I've learned that the esteemed Mr. Latis will be attending a joint conference of three schools at Qing Teng Academy. I wonder if they'll come to your apartment to see you, but I've heard there will be beautiful women greeting you at the entrance of Qing Teng Academy?"
“A beautiful woman?” Latis repeated.
“Yes, a young, pretty, and adorable girl.” Jennifer raised an eyebrow, crossed her arms, and asked with a grin:
