A day later.

Eddie, who had slept for a day and a night, slowly opened his eyes.

​​

The first thing he did after waking up was to subconsciously open his mouth, wanting water.

His body instinctively asked him to start looking for water.

At this moment, a jade-like hand sent a cup of warm water into Eddie's mouth in time.

"Gulp gulp gulp."

Eddie was extremely thirsty now.

"Master, drink slowly. There's more here."

A sweet-sounding voice appeared beside Eddie's ear.

He raised his head and only then did he see clearly who was in front of him.

A head of silver hair, exquisite facial features, and he was lying on this soft thing.

Eddie suddenly realized what this was.

His body instinctively retreated to the side.

This subconscious action immediately affected Eddie's injured muscles.

"Hiss!"

This action affected the wounds all over his body, causing Eddie to suck in a breath of cold air in pain.

Emily stretched out a pair of fair hands and gently rubbed Eddie's sore spots.

It was strange.

After being rubbed by Emily, Eddie's sore spots instantly felt much more relaxed.

Eddie felt that all the soreness in his body had lessened quite a bit.

"Emily, thank you for taking care of me."

He grabbed Emily's little hand.

He said this from the bottom of his heart.

The last time he was attacked by a goblin, it was also Emily who stood by his bed.

Waiting for him to wake up.

This time, it was still Emily.

Humans were strange animals.

They would feel a sense of dependence towards the people they saw when they were at their most vulnerable.

Eddie was a man of two lifetimes.

Naturally, he knew how precious such feelings were.

Emily, who was held by Eddie's hand, blushed inexplicably.

"Master, you must never act tough again in the future."

"If you want to become stronger, we... We can help you."

Hearing Emily's complaints, Eddie felt a little embarrassed.

Previously, he had indeed underestimated the other party's strength and overestimated his own strength.

Even though he had won last time.

But as he recalled how the last battle went, many of his details were still very crude, and a lot of his mana had been wasted.

If he won this battle, it was very likely that he would lose the next one because of these.

It was not because of the fusion of spells. He had no chance of winning at all.

In the end, although he won, he won with great difficulty.

His body was almost exhausted, and he fainted on the spot.

It was almost the same as losing.

If it was on the battlefield, in such a state, a random arrow could easily kill him.

Therefore, he had to become stronger as soon as possible.

Only then could he use the spell fusion at will.

Even if he used it, he wouldn't be exhausted.

But Eddie was very clear, at this stage, he simply couldn't perfectly grasp this ability.

The feeling of being drained of energy and falling to the ground was really terrible.

"Master, the talent you have is very rare, but please take care of your body."

"A healthy body can better accommodate spiritual energy."

Emily still didn't forget to remind Eddie.

"Okay, I promise you, I won't do that next time."

Eddie looked at Emily's smooth side profile and smiled.

There's a next time?

Emily thought to herself.

The plan of hiring a tutor for Eddie was going to be put on the agenda.

Otherwise, if he exhausted himself every day, his body would not be able to handle it.

"Where are Thor and Hermione, those two mischievous rascals?" Eddie asked about the other maids in his house.

Emily seemed to be shocked.

"Well... the two of them went out for something."

"Oh..."

Eddie wondered why Emily's reaction was a little strange.

Actually, it was not Emily's fault.

Because early in the morning, Thor and Hermione went to find a tutor for Eddie.

...

Thor and Hermione were walking on the road.

But the way they walked was a bit strange.

Because they were walking one after the other, and they were even holding a rope in their hands.

"One is the dark dragon of the continent, and the other is the ominous witch of the continent. I don't think I've offended you before!?"

The one who asked this question was an old man with white hair.

His hair and beard were all white.

His appearance looked like Gandalf from the Lord of the rings.

If others saw him...

They would think that Thor and Hermione were torturing an old man.

"Gorgon, we invited you here for no other reason than to teach a student."

Thor walked in front, holding a rope used by the dragon clan to tie people, and said to the white-haired old man.

"Are you using ropes to 'invite' people? I don't look like I'm going to be a teacher. I look like I'm going to be a hostage."

There was some dissatisfaction in Gorgon's tone.

He had been sleeping well in his big soft bed when he was suddenly bound by ropes by two famous villains on the continent. They even threatened him not to make a sound, or else they would immediately transform and destroy the academy.

He believed that no matter how good-tempered a person was, they would not be happy, right?

He could hear the complaints of the dean of the Top Magic Academy on the continent.

Thor had long prepared an excuse.

"Sister Emily asked me to find you. If you have any questions, you can ask her."

Upon hearing Emily's name, the dean of Gorgon immediately became spirited.

"Is it an order from Lady Emily?!"

"You should have said so earlier!"

The rope on Gorgon's body was automatically untied.

Then, he reached out his hand and took out a magic staff with a huge magic core embedded in it from his interspatial ring.

"Let's hurry up and leave. Don't let Lady Emily wait so anxiously."

Thor and Hermione looked as if they had seen a ghost.

So this rope couldn't bind you at all!

It seemed that you were just practicing and lying to them?

Thor and Hermione felt that they had been deceived by this 100-year-old young man in front of them.

"Hehe, aren't we in a hurry? Point to a place and I'll send you off."

Thor thought about it and agreed.

He was wanted by an army.

If he transformed and lured all his enemies here, it would be difficult to handle.

He pointed to the castle.

Then, he cast a spell and rushed to the castle with a few people.

...
