After boarding the carriage, before Feng Chou could sit down, Glise had already thrown herself into his arms and sealed his mouth with a sweet kiss...
Although Feng Chou was already twenty years old, he was still a virgin who had never even touched a girl's hand before. How could he have experienced such a situation before? But at this moment, he could not back down. There were still four stalkers following him outside.
Helplessly, he could only try to respond. Through this response, he immediately found that he was not only proficient in kissing, but also knew the way this woman liked him.
After a long kiss that almost suffocated Feng Chou, a fighter close to LV 5, Glise leaned in his arms contentedly.
Recovering from his first kiss, Feng Chou couldn't help but have mixed feelings. Gloria was very beautiful, and her kiss was very fragrant. Feng Chou enjoyed it very much, but at the same time, he felt very awkward. Although he had accepted a part of Li Ao's personality, his main personality was still Feng Chou, not Li Ao. It felt like he was pretending to be someone else and taking advantage of someone else's woman. Moreover, the other person was someone very close to him. This feeling was very uncomfortable.
Therefore, he had to get rid of this woman as soon as possible.
After thinking for a while, Feng Chou started to tell Glise about his experiences in the past half a year...
Under Glise's signal, the carriage slowly started to move. The knights and attendants put on their helmets and lightly kicked their warhorses to guard the carriage on both sides.
When the carriage left the northern city district, Feng Chou selectively told Glise about his experiences.
Feng Chou told her these things in the hope that she would back off. Although Glise was not smart, as a woman born in a noble family, she should understand the basic advantages and disadvantages. Obviously, the whirlpool that Feng Chou was involved in was not something that a small knight could bear.
To Feng Chou's surprise, after hearing his story, this woman just looked at him sadly and asked, "Dear, what can I do for you?"
Feng Chou said somewhat helplessly, "No, I don't need your help. I only hope that you can protect yourself well."
Glise was silent for a while before suddenly raising her head and looking at him with shining eyes, "Leo, let's escape to a place where no one can find us!"
Feng Chou couldn't help but feel moved and jealous. For people in this world, nobility and territory were the highest pursuit. This woman was willing to give up her territory and nobility for Leo. This meant that her feelings for Leo weren't just for show.
Feng Chou thought for a while and said, "It's too late. If we escape now, not only will the culprit behind my father's plot not to let us go, even the El Chamber of Commerce won't let us go. Besides, I can't escape. If I escape, would my father and family's deaths in vain?
No!
I will either avenge them or be buried with them!
Staying at the Mage Academy and becoming a Mage might be my only chance for revenge. "
Gloria raised her head and held his face in her hands. After staring at him for a long time, tears suddenly gushed out of her eyes. "Oh, Leo, I know, I know. You're a hero. I can't help you much, but please let me do something for you!" Gloria said.
Looking at the woman in his arms, Feng Chou's thoughts raced. To be honest, he didn't want to use this woman. Otherwise, Leo's personality would make him uneasy. However, he couldn't trust her. After all, this was the first time he had met this woman.
But seeing how this woman was willing to give up her nobility for Leo, he couldn't get rid of her for the time being.
Feng Chou thought for a while and took out a pair of machetes from his waist. He handed it to her and said, "I need a lot of money to learn magic. This is a weapon I got from Drow in the underground city. It's a pair of + 4 enchanted machetes. Ask Devitt to sell him and send the money to the Mage Academy."
On one hand, he did need money. On the other hand, he could test if she was trustworthy. He didn't want to use her to do anything dangerous, but since he couldn't get rid of her for the time being, it would be good to have her help.
After the carriage reached the pier, it drove directly onto a large ferry.
After crossing the Antalya River, the carriage drove off the ferry and followed the main road to the south of the city, entering the north gate of the city.
The south of Antalya was also a city with stairs. However, the height difference between each step was shorter and there were more steps.
The carriage followed the slanted road to the top of the mountain.
The Antalya Mage Academy occupied the highest level of the mountain city, opposite the castle on the top of the mountain on the other side of the river.
The top level of the south of the city was larger, and the Antalya Mage Academy was also larger than the Antalya castle.
The carriage drove to the top level and stopped in the small square outside the north gate of the Mage Academy.
Feng Chou kissed Gloria goodbye here and got into his own carriage.
The carriage stopped in front of the school gate. The gate of the Mage Academy was an iron gate that opened on both sides. There were circular rails under the gate. On both sides of the gate, there were two rows of guards in bright armor. The Mage Academy had its own guards. These guards were all mid-order Warriors above level-5.
In front of the two pillars of the gate stood two black iron statues. These two statues were in the shape of armored guards, holding a machete in one hand and a hammer in the other. They seemed to be guarding the Mage Academy.
They were indeed guarding the Mage Academy. It was said that these two statues were actually powerful iron golems.
Once the Mage Academy was attacked, these two golems would be activated and become terrifying killing machines.
On the right side of the gate, there was a small sentry box. Inside the box sat a middle-aged man in a long robe.
Those who were familiar with Mages would be able to tell at a glance that this person was wearing a typical mage robe.
However, Feng Chou knew that this person was not a Mage. A formal Mage would not be guarding the gate for others. This person was an apprentice Mage.
In theory, as long as one had 15 points of Intelligence, they should be able to become a Mage. However, this was not the case in reality.
Logically speaking, as long as a student had no problems with their Intelligence, there should be no problems with their studies. However, in reality, there were only a few students who had no problems with their studies.
To become a Mage, 15 points of Intelligence was the most basic requirement. For students, having normal Intelligence was the most basic requirement. Hard work and perseverance were the most important things. It was the same for Mages.
The sea of arcana was vast and deep. Without hard work, perseverance, and an insatiable thirst for knowledge, one would never be able to go far in the sea of arcana. This was what an instructor had told Leo on the first day of his first class at the Mage Academy.
However, in this world, there were only a few people who had such spirit. Therefore, most apprentices with only 15 points of Intelligence were unable to become formal Mages.
Most of the apprentices would leave the Mage Academy after a few years. However, there were a few more outstanding apprentices who stayed and were hired by the Mage Academy to serve the Mage Academy and the Mage Academy.
The apprentice in the sentry box wearing a mage robe was one of these old apprentices hired by the Mage Academy.
