Chapter 52 [The magician’s creditor comes to visit]
Mader lay in the room for two full days afterwards. After a serious illness, she still felt that her legs were weak when she got out of bed.
However, Duwei still gave this loyal servant a reward. Because that day on the hot air balloon, when faced with being unable to land, Mader was still in a panic and made an unintentional suggestion: Can the stove below be used to warm the fire?
Turn off?
This suggestion immediately reminded Du Wei that the power of the hot air balloon was related to the temperature of the gas in the balloon. After turning off the heating stove and the gas gradually cooling, the balloon finally landed.
It was just that after poor Mader landed, he almost vomited out his bile, and was finally carried back by the rescue of a group of cavalry.
Just when everyone in the castle was speculating on what new tricks this weird young master would come up with... Du Wei fell silent.
For many days, Du Wei did not tinker with anything. Du Wei himself understood very well: he was not interested in doing too many things to occupy his energy. Whether it was fireworks or football gambling, it was all for him to solve the problems in the near future.
Some ways to make money when money is tight.
Du Wei was not even interested in doing things like the Industrial Revolution that wasted money and people. His purpose was to make money, in order to raise the money needed for magic experiments.
Now that he no longer had to worry about money, Du Wei stopped moving.
In addition to going to Solskjaer's laboratory every day to see the progress of this magical scientist, and then visiting the hot-air balloon and pyrotechnics research and development teams, Du Wei spent all his time on
I'm learning magic.
Every night he would go to the third-floor terrace of the Magic Laboratory and stay all night alone. He and Solskjaer have formed a tacit understanding. The laboratory is used by Solskjaer during the day and Duwei has the right to use it at night.
.Both of them do not interfere with each other.
It has been more than a month, but Du Wei's practice of "Star Magic" has never been able to break through the first threshold. The concept of the so-called "Star Power" is still too vague. There is no specific standard or specific description.
Even Semmel himself cannot accurately tell what the power of the stars is... After all, the current Semmel is not the real female astrologer herself, she just inherited a copy of a memory. Du Wei
There are many problems that Semel cannot answer.
In addition to learning star magic at night, Du Wei will also learn orthodox magic on the mainland during the day... Solskjaer has provided some help in this regard. After all, he is also a magician. With some low-level magic spells, Du Wei
All available from Solskjaer.
After more than a month, Du Wei has basically mastered some low-level spells, such as simple fire magic, fireball spells, and wind blades of wind magic. Du Wei can cast them calmly. Among these low-level magics, Du Wei
Wei is most proficient in the "stun" and "acceleration" techniques.
In the end, even Solskjaer admitted that Du Wei's magic strength now exceeds his own... whether it is magic power or induction. If Du Wei is willing to participate in the assessment of the Magic Union, then with his current strength, he can
Easily qualified as a first-level magician.
This is the result of Du Wei hiding some of his strength.
In fact, although Du Wei has never been able to learn star magic, Saimel's spiritual power cultivation spell was extremely effective in increasing his mental power. The intensity of his magic power has now barely reached
At the level of a third-level magician.
As for his induction... with the "antenna" gifted by Chris on his head, Du Wei's induction is even more sensitive than many intermediate magicians!
This afternoon, Mader was once again assigned an important task by Du Wei!
As Du Wei's steward, Mader will be responsible for taking the gifts carefully prepared by Du Wei to the imperial capital to congratulate the Countess on her birthday.
Du Wei spent a night carefully writing a handwritten letter... Du Wei still had quite a lot of feelings for the beautiful and gentle countess. Especially when he was seriously ill when he was a child, the countess knelt in the Temple of Light.
He prayed all night, and then took care of himself sleeplessly... Even after his younger brother was born, everyone in the family ignored him, but only the countess often came to Duwei's room at night to hug him.
He held his young son and sang him to sleep...
Du Wei was deeply moved. This beautiful and gentle woman showed the greatest and simplest maternal love in her. Although this love made Du Wei feel guilty... because he was not her real son.
Because of this love, Du Wei was filled with concern for this beautiful and gentle mother.
The birthday gift was "Forgiveness from the Goddess of Dawn" carefully prepared by Du Wei.
Du Wei is very confident that this unprecedented gift will definitely cause a great shock when it is delivered to the Earl's Palace! Du Wei doesn't care about this shock, he hopes to make the Countess happy at the birthday party
.
Mader took a carriage and set out on the road with a few followers. The countess's birthday was just seven days later. As long as there were no accidents along the way, he could probably arrive two days before the countess's birthday.
After sending Mad off, Du Wei felt a little more relaxed, and he also had a little selfishness. After all, the days of being grounded were a bit sad, and he couldn't leave a certain area around the castle every day. After more than a month, he felt a little bit sad.
Feeling depressed, he hoped that this wonderful birthday gift would change his father's opinion of him a little bit. Du Wei didn't care about the three hundred gold coins every month. He only hoped that the earl would be happy and lift his
A ban would be the best.
On the night when Ma De left, the moon was clear and the stars were bright. On such a beautiful night, Du Wei suddenly became very interested. He asked his servant to prepare a stove and placed it on the terrace on the roof of the laboratory, and then asked the castle to
The cook there prepared some sirloin, lamb chops, and some fresh vegetables that had just been shipped from the farm behind the castle... plus a bottle of good wine.
Duwei is planning to set up an outdoor barbecue here.
The steak was placed on the iron rack on the fire. Du Wei took a brush that he made, dipped it in the seasoning he prepared, and applied it to the steak over and over again. His movements were extremely careful, as much as possible.
Make every inch of the steak fully and evenly coated with seasoning.
Under the grilling fire, the aroma of meat mixed with seasonings overflowed. Du Wei took a deep breath with great enjoyment, and he even couldn't help humming a ditty.
Seeing Du Wei's comfortable look, Semel's eyes looked a little strange.
"What tune are you humming? It seems to be the work of a bard... but why can't I understand a word of it?"
Du Wei didn't bother to explain, he snorted, then turned the steak over with a fork, picked up the wine bottle and took a small sip.
"Red wine goes with red meat." Du Wei sighed with satisfaction: "The wind is light and the clouds are clear, the moon is bright and the stars are bright... On such a comfortable night, there is a small breeze, some barbecue, and a bottle of good wine...
It’s a pity, it would have been nice to have some more music.”
"You, a little nobleman, will definitely enjoy it." Semmel curled his lips and said, "Aren't you going to learn star magic tonight?"
"I have been studying for more than a month." Du Wei smiled bitterly: "My mental strength has been trained very effectively, but I still can't figure out the power of the stars. It's not that I'm lazy, but since I don't understand, it's hard to figure it out.
It's not something that can be solved in a day or two. The so-called balance of work and rest, I have been tired for more than a month, and I must have time to relax."
After saying that, he picked up the cooked steak with a fork and took a careful bite. The aroma in his mouth made Du Wei almost bite his own tongue. He smiled vaguely: "It's delicious! It's delicious! It's just that
It’s a pity that you can’t eat such delicious food.”
Semmel rolled his eyes directly. She is a magical creature, and generally speaking, it is just a spiritual object. Without an actual body, she is just a phantom and does not need to eat, drink or sleep.
And Du Wei unlocked her seal, causing her spirit body to be deeply imprinted with Du Wei's magic mark, almost becoming Du Wei's shadow.
"You don't eat, drink, or sleep... then wouldn't life be boring?" Du Wei sighed and looked at Semel in front of him.
Semel was still wearing the bright red robe, but after Du Wei reminded her many times, she finally learned to pay a little attention to her appearance and no longer jumped on the railing to dangle her beautiful legs.
Semel rolled his eyes again.
"By the way, let me ask you...well, I have never asked you before." Du Wei blinked: "How long can you live?"
"Same as you." Semmel said this with some helplessness: "I was released by you. The spell that unlocked the seal made my life firmly connected to your spiritual power.
.As long as you can live, I can live as long as you can! And if you die and your mental power disappears, then I will disappear with it."
"So, doesn't it mean that we live and die together?" Du Wei looked strange.
"Watch your words, my little noble." Semmel's smile was malicious: "Don't forget, I am your great-great-grandmother."
Du Wei snorted and glared at Semmel without giving up: "You are just a clone, not the real Semmel. And... great-great-grandmother? Have you ever seen her with two legs exposed all day long?
A grandmother hanging around in front of her own grandson?”
Semel turned his face away in anger and looked up at the starry sky.
Du Wei leaned back comfortably on the armchair, chewing a piece of sausage in his mouth, and looked at Semmel standing on the edge of the railing. The moonlight shone softly on her face, and her red robe was fluttering and silver.
Her long hair is as white as snow. Looking from the side, the outline of her face is very soft, but there is an inexplicable look on her face...
"What are you thinking about?" Du Wei asked.
"I don't know. That's why I'm thinking about it." Saimel's answer was a little strange, but his tone was a little low.
Turning around, Semel looked at Du Wei, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes: "Actually, I feel that I am very strange... During the days when I was sealed in the painting, I looked forward to unlocking the seal every day.
But after untying it, I found that I didn't know what to do... I'm not a human being. But... Semmel gave me a memory of hers, which gave me human thinking. Following you these days, I
I feel a little confused... I don't know what I should do. Although the days staying with you like this are very leisurely and much more comfortable than being sealed in a painting. But it makes me even more confused... You are a human being, so
At your age, you can still live for decades or even hundreds of years... Am I just going to stay by your side in the next hundred years, only talking to you and being your shadow? Just like this every day
