Above the mage

Chapter 81 [Feather Fall Technique]

After seeing off the beautiful and elegant Miss Gerica, God returned to his room humming a cheerful tune.

I thought I would have to wait at least a few days for the "GG" controversy to take hold before I could get my first order.

Who would have thought happiness would come so quickly?

It's still such a great happiness.

A large order of 15 Sean Gold Coins.

All he needs to give up is a tiny amount of time.

"A great start, a good omen!"

Gaode even began to look forward to more customers in the future.

However, he did not see a second customer until 5 p.m., the time when he "clocked out".

"My reputation is still not good enough," Gao De muttered to himself.

However, Gaode Maps didn't just sit idly by.

During this time, he spent some time first using [Repair+] to complete part of the repair work on the magical necklace left by Miss Gerica.

He then drank a basic magic potion and began his daily channeling practice until his mana was replenished.

After advancing to the second-level mage apprentice level, both the efficiency and time spent in cultivation have improved significantly compared to when I was a first-level mage apprentice.

Therefore, most of the basic magic power provided by a bottle of basic magic potion was absorbed by Gao De during this training.

The remaining unabsorbed magic power will have long since dissipated by tomorrow.

This is why a second-class apprentice can consume a set of basic magic potions in three days, averaging one small bottle of basic magic potion per day.

However, the increase in "consumption" also leads to an increase in the progress of the guiding method.

After finishing the guided practice, although it was already dinner time, adhering to the principle of finishing in one go, Gao De also completed the apprentice's meditation practice before starting to arrange dinner.

Starving, he naturally had no appetite to cook for himself.

So Gaode took the key, closed the door, left home, and went to the small restaurant diagonally opposite Mrs. Misu's house again.

Because they had missed the mealtime, the small restaurant didn't have many customers at the moment, and Gaode once again got a window seat on the second floor.

They continued to enjoy dinner while observing from their elevated position.

At the same time, he was also thinking about how to obtain information about the "letter of recommendation" from Misuf.

Direct, blunt, and forceful interrogation?

This is clearly not advisable.

Although mages are superior to others, this is not a barbaric world; laws exist here.

Moreover, he was only a Dharma apprentice and could not be called a Dharma master.

For a magic apprentice to dare to do such illegal things in the city is suicidal.

Not to mention apprentice monks, even first-ring or second-ring monks would not easily "commit evil deeds" within the city.

Try to lure Lady Misu out of the city, then interrogate her violently.

This approach does have some merit, but Gaode Maps wouldn't use it unless there was absolutely no other way.

Besides, is a woman who can live independently for more than ten years really that easy to fool?

If you always treat others as fools, then you are often the fool yourself.

Moreover, can the information obtained by asking such questions really be guaranteed to be true?

They might just try to scam you.

To subtly inquire?

That's not very realistic either. Mrs. Misu would definitely be extremely cautious about something as important as a "letter of recommendation without examination." How could she possibly let him get information out of her so easily?

After much deliberation, Goddess realized that the most feasible approach was to use his status as a disciple of Master Seda to get close to Lady Misu and gain her trust.

However, this is only relatively feasible. Upon closer examination, it becomes clear that there are still many areas prone to "bugs," and more information is needed to refine the details.

Most importantly, God could not guarantee that Master Seda had never mentioned to Lady Misu that he was using his apprentices as test subjects.

Although in order to maintain his image in front of his wife, it is highly likely that Master Seda will not reveal his evil deeds, but what if he does?

If Lady Misu knew that Master Seda was using his apprentices as test subjects, she would understand that all the apprentices should loathe and hate Master Seda.

The fact that an apprentice has come to our door now is surely ill-intentioned.

Under these circumstances, no matter how eloquently he speaks, no matter how flowery his words, Mrs. Misu will not believe a single word he says...

After finishing his dinner, Gao De, still empty-handed, decided to pay the bill and go home.

For the next week, Gaode's life was unusually peaceful.

Repair the damaged magic necklace.

Practice the apprenticeship guidance method and meditation techniques.

Construct spell models for the four newly acquired 0-ring spells.

At the same time, actively learn about news about St. Sien City to prepare for your trip there.

In addition, they would dine at the restaurant at irregular intervals to observe whether there were any suspicious people.

If the person behind the forced departure of Master Seda were still alive, his rash revelation of his identity would likely lead to persecution by that person, not only failing to gain Lady Misu's trust, but also being questioned by her.

During this time, two or three other customers were either attracted by the "GG" sign at the entrance of the Craftsmen's Guild or happened to see the banner that Gao De was hanging at the entrance to attract customers, and came to the door.

However, upon hearing that Gaode Maps was still undergoing repairs and required waiting in line, and seeing that Gaode Maps was too young, they all chose to "find another solution".

Although Gaode was helpless, it understood.

Just like on Earth, only specialist appointments are worth queuing up for; if you can't get a regular appointment, you'll usually try another doctor.

He is currently still a "regular" employee, and the kind of "regular" employee who looks like an "intern".

However, Gaode is not in a hurry. As long as it makes a name for itself and becomes an "expert account", business will naturally come to it.

Bremen is a large city, and there are many restoration craftsmen, but those who can be called experts are certainly few.

And with his magical "cheating," it's only a matter of time before he overtakes others.

Rizhao month, 9th.

As the last line of the magical rune on the central gem of the necklace was completed, a bright pale green magical light suddenly flashed and then disappeared.

Gao De let out a long breath, and the magical light emanating from his hands faded away.

"Done!"

He looked at the beautiful necklace in his hand that radiated a blue and white glow.

The largest ocean sapphire at the center of the necklace has been restored to its original state, and the original crack is no longer visible.

The magical runes on it blended seamlessly with the color of the gemstone itself, concealed by the gemstone's brilliance.

If you don't look closely, you can't see any trace of the runes at all.

This gives the necklace both extraordinary power and exceptional beauty.

It is evident that the alchemist who created this gemstone necklace possessed exceptional skill.

Of course, when evaluating the quality of a metalwork, appearance is always a secondary factor.

The most important criterion is always the magical ability inherent in the object itself.

By this standard, this necklace is still above average.

The spirit of Gaode is concentrated in the necklace, and information flow feedback comes from it:

It has a slight effect of gathering magic energy.

Includes a one-time automatically triggered 1st-level spell, [Featherfall].

If you fall at least 20 feet while wearing this necklace, you will instead fall at a speed of 10 feet per second, thus avoiding fall injury.

The necklace will be damaged when you land.
