It was still too early to talk about the trial. After all, there were still two years left, so there was no need to rush it.

Having just ended a war, Heath also needed a moment to catch his breath.

In the following days, his life returned to its former tranquility.

He meditated every day, carried out missions to earn Magic Stones, and went to the Tower to attend a free public lesson once a week… The sun rose, and he returned at sunset. He returned to the life of a magic maniac that the Apprentices had been talking about.

The slightly different thing was that every other month, his regular partner, Shirley, would come to the cabin to have a deep and simple exchange with him.

The two of them were still the same as the previous two times. They were purely releasing their physical desires without any unnecessary emotional exchanges.

She would usually leave soon after her desires were controlled, and she would not even wait until the next morning.

There were even two times when Heath took the initiative to invite her to stay for breakfast, but Shirley politely refused.

It could be seen that she was deliberately avoiding the possibility of a spiritual collision.

Just as the rumors had it, Shirley was a magic maniac who was no less famous than Heath, and she was even more hardworking than him in practicing magic. Everyone knew that she was obsessed and crazy about magic.

She had no friends, no hobbies, and no feelings.

She didn’t need these either. To her, having magic was enough.

She even deliberately turned these things away.

After all, this was the only way to maintain absolute rationality.

Three months later, in the Shadow Tower, library, new book area.

In front of a large and brand-new bookshelf, Heath was holding a book that had just been sent into the tower.

The crisp sound of a system notification rang in his ears.

[Beep, successful extraction. Obtained knowledge, Introduction To the Old Land Martial Arts Tournament.]

[Beep, successful extraction. Obtained knowledge, Selected Collection of the Sixteen Kingdoms’ Nobles By the Edge of the Forest.]

[Beep, successful extraction. Obtained knowledge, detailed explanation of the subject of ghosts.]

[Beep, successful extraction…]

In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen books had been completely extracted by Heath. All the information had been stored in his mind.

Then, he put the last book back on the shelf with a disappointed look on his face.

Not far away, the librarian, Apprentice Bernard, walked over and said enthusiastically, “What’s the matter, Apprentice Heath? Didn’t you find any books that you’re interested in?”

Bernard, the unofficial Apprentice, was not stingy with the smile on his face when he saw this magic maniac who was so popular that it was rumored that he might become an official Apprentice.

Heath shook his head and said, “They are all unrelated to magic.”

Bernard smiled and said, “Of course, magic is what we Wizards should focus on all our lives, but it shouldn’t be the only thing in life, right?”

Heath said, “For example?”

Bernard said, “There are too many. For example, music, dance, food, wine, art, culture. Humans have created many interesting things for us. I heard that you already have an external certificate. Is that so?”

An external certificate was a special identity certificate given to them by the Shadow Tower as an unofficial Apprentice. An Apprentice with such a certificate could accept missions outside of the Underdark Treesea.

This type of certificate was only given to Apprentices who performed well. It was considered a special identity between an official Apprentice and an unofficial Apprentice.

Heath nodded. “Yes.”

He had gotten this identity after coming back from the battlefield. He had just accepted a mission to go out yesterday.

Bernard said, “Then don’t waste your identity. Go out and take a walk. Anyway, there are cultivation resources provided by the Tower for you when you are outside, aren’t there?”

“In the next few days, a cultural festival is being held in Allund. There will also be a tournament of Knights in the city. This is a very interesting project. I think you can go and have a look.”

“The world cannot be without magic, but the world cannot only have magic.”

Heath raised his eyebrows. “Allund?”

This was a Count’s territory in the southern part of the Helan Kingdom. The mission he had accepted was to go to the vicinity of this noble’s territory.

Bernard asked, “Why? Does Apprentice Heath know about this place?”

Heath said, “I accepted Wizard Bagra’s request to help him go to the Lake Forest to feed the Lake Banshee.”

The Lake Forest was right next to Allund.

Bernard smiled and said, “That’s a coincidence. Go take a look. You won’t be disappointed.”

Heath nodded. “Okay, thank you for your advice. I will consider it.”

A few days later, Allund, Lake Forest.

Lake Forest was a forest outside Allund City. Because there was a bay lake in the forest, it had this name.

Legend had it that there was a goddess living in this lake. If one made a sincere wish and offered a sacrifice to the lake, the goddess would appear and fulfill the wish of the person making the wish.

At this moment, in the forest at the center of the lake.

Walking on the soft soil road made of dead leaves and debris, Heath was trying to determine the direction.

“Lake, where is the lake…”

The forest scenery here was almost the same. Tall old trees and lush green lawns made it feel like he was walking on the same spot no matter where he went.

“Forget it, let’s use the Ghost Scout…”

Just as he was about to release the Ghost Scout, a voice suddenly came from the front.

“Tiffany, what wish did you make to the goddess of the lake?”

Two young girls could be vaguely seen walking over from the front. One had brown hair and the other had blonde hair. The two of them were talking animatedly about something.

“Of course, it’s to bless me to meet a handsome Knight in the tournament, a hero like Gallio!”

“Oh my, you greedy little thing, you’re quite ambitious. Lord Gallio is a legendary figure who follows the Wizard. You might as well make a wish to be the queen.”

“Hmph! I have nothing else in my life. I only hope to have a love affair with such a hero. Alright, let’s talk about you. What did you wish for?”

“I don’t have as big an ambition as you. I only wish to be the Queen of Love and Beauty at the tournament and spend a wonderful night under the moon with my hero.”

“Ya! Ya! Ya! You’re still talking about me, Elsa. You insatiable little slut. Let me see if you’re clean or not? Haha.”

“Haha, who’s the little slut scolding… Shh, someone’s coming.”

When they saw Heath walking over, the two girls immediately stopped playing and regained their composure.

Heath was worried about finding his way, so when he saw the situation, he quickly stepped forward and blocked their path. “Ladies, please wait.”

The girls maintained their necessary vigilance and took a step back. They looked at Heath, and one of the brown-haired girls asked, “Who are you? What’s the matter?”

Heath said, “I’m a traveler from Reiden. I heard that there’s a lake here that can make people’s wishes come true.”

The golden-haired Tiffany’s eyes lit up. The great hero and idol of hers, Knight Gallio, was from Reiden City.

She asked with a slight doubt, “Reiden City?”

Then she raised her hand and pointed in a direction. “You can see Goddess Lake if you walk straight this way.”

Heath said, “Thank you very much.”

The girl said, “You’re welcome. In that case, I wish you all the best, stranger.”

Heath said, “Okay, thank you again.”

The two girls left.

When they walked some distance away, Elsa, who had brown hair, could not help but secretly pull Tiffany and whispered, “Tiffany, why are you so warm to him? Aren’t you afraid that the lice on that commoner will jump over?”

Tiffany said, “Don’t say that, Elsa. My father taught me that even slaves should be respected.”

She secretly glanced back and then added, “And look, he has a sword on him. Maybe he is a Knight.”

Elsa said in disdain, “Knight? Come on, just look at his age. He is probably just a wandering Knight Apprentice who wants to try his luck in the Martial Arts Competition. He probably bought that sword with all his money.”

Tiffany said, “But he’s quite handsome.”

Elsa sneered, “Ya ya ya, little slut, are you in heat? You don’t even care about their status? Hahaha!”

The two girls laughed and walked away.

On the other side, Heath heard the conversation between the two girls without missing a word because of the extraordinary hearing brought by being a peak Knight. He could not help but look down at his clothes.

He was curious. ‘I remember that this is the latest fashion from Reiden City? Why am I looked down upon?’

Was it because he could not wear these clothes with temperament? Or was it because of that bold tailor?

With his thoughts running wild, Heath walked deeper into the forest.

After passing through a small forest, a beautiful lake soon appeared in his field of vision…
