Full-Time Magister: I Had No Intention of Reaching the Dimensional Throne

Chapter 425 Holding the Grass

Upon hearing Bai Mo say that the two were healing, Ding Yumin understood why he still smelled of blood.

"Go take a shower."

"??"

Bai Mo tilted her head, then realized what was going on. "Oh, so you're disgusted with me!"

I can't be bothered with you.

She glanced at him; Ding Yumin was now immune to this level of teasing.

This person was originally going to take a shower, but after she said that, he didn't want to go anymore. He just wanted to tease her a little. How boring.

"If you're going to ignore me, then you'd better keep ignoring me."

As soon as Bai Mo finished speaking, Ding Yumin felt herself being picked up, and then the bathroom was right in front of her.

"What are you doing?"

"Take a bath."

Bai Mo said with a grin, "You're ignoring me, so just stay put."

With that, the bathroom door slammed shut, and the two disappeared.

This bath took an unusually long time.

Anyway, the sound of water inside never stopped.

For a moment, when guests in other rooms used water, they felt that the water flow from their own faucet seemed to be much less.

It wasn't until nearly evening that the taps here finally spewed out a torrent of water.

On the other side, the man who had indulged in debauchery during the day had now dressed himself up again. Looking at Yu Mian, who was resting against the bed with a rosy blush on her face, he said:

"Should we go check on Eileen and the others?"

"Why go and see what they're doing? You were just helping out, weren't you?"

"I have a feeling that Europe is about to descend into chaos. This time, it was Saracen who caused Eileen's injury."

Bai Mo spoke while thinking.

"This incident gave me a reminder. Originally, when I awakened the emperor of the Alpine Demon Empire, I only wanted to cause some trouble for the Holy City."

But the activities of the demon empire and the mobilization of the Holy City also stirred up the whole of Europe.

Upon hearing this, Ding Yumin's eyes darted around, and she asked, "Are you trying to distinguish between friend and foe? But this is Europe."

The Holy City is not just the Holy City; it also has many supporters, most of whom are European families.

With the Alpine Demon Empire now active, the Holy City naturally needs to shoulder the responsibility of maintaining stability.

Because this giant mountain was right next to them.

The awakened emperor inside is likely plotting revenge against them.

Therefore, the Holy City would naturally mobilize its own people, and even summon forces from all over Europe.

In this way, it becomes crystal clear who stands with the Holy City, who doesn't, and who is a fence-sitter.

Ding Yumin felt this was useless because this was Europe, not Kyushu. Even if they knew which European families were in the Holy City, there was nothing they could do.

Although the situation is somewhat turbulent, it has not yet reached the point of a dark forest.

"This is indeed Europe, but the more intelligence we have, the better. We might need it someday."

After a pause, Bai Mo added, "Perhaps we can also see if there are any in Kyushu."

Ding Yumin nodded, glanced at the sunset outside the window, and asked, "Are Eileen and the others still here?"

"I also ran into Mo Fan and a few others in the lobby downstairs," Bai Mo said.

He needed to know the movements of all the powers in Europe, and relying on himself to gather intelligence was naturally not as convenient as relying on a member of a large family.

Eileen, being a member of the Victorian aristocracy, naturally had a thorough understanding of the various powers, large and small, in Europe.

The two arrived at the hotel lobby, where Eileen and Seaston were sitting in the lounge area, chatting with Mo Fan and the others.

"If you want to travel to Kyushu, I can teach you a few everyday phrases."

Mo Fan gestured excitedly as he spoke, "That's how you say hello."

He raised his hand, folded his other four fingers, and straightened his middle finger, pointing it directly at Bai Mo who was walking towards him.

"Oh, I see!" Immediately afterwards, Eileen also gave Bai Mo the middle finger as he walked over.

"Thank you so much, Bai."

Siston silently raised his hand, pointed his middle finger at Bai Mo, and then nodded.

Bai Mo:

"Eileen, if you really want to thank me, don't make that gesture. It's a sign of contempt."

"But."

"Oh, obviously, Mo Fan is just teasing you."

Bai Mo glanced at Mo Fan, then said seriously, "In Kyushu, if you want to greet someone, you can say 'little cutie' in the Kyushu dialect."

"A private class?"

"Yes, cutie, this is praising someone."

"I see, I'll remember that, 'Little Cutie'."

Eileen nodded vigorously. She loved Kyushu's culture and food, but unfortunately, she never had the time or opportunity to learn some of the Kyushu dialect.

"Anything else?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo ignored the strange looks from Mo Fan and the others, and continued...

"Don't try to do too much at once; you should learn this first. But I can teach you something else simpler—"

If you think someone's behavior is great, or something or a view is amazing and surprising, you can say "Wow!"

"Holy crap?"

Eileen read it correctly this time. "I've heard Mo Fan say that a few times before. So that's what he meant."

Then, she looked at Mo Fan with a serious expression and said, "You're so damn cute."

Mo Fan's face, which was already on the verge of breaking down, suddenly stiffened.

"How was my assessment?" Eileen asked Bai Mo.

Bai Mo gave a thumbs up, "You can say that to Mo Fan often; he likes it when people praise him like that."

"He's a bit narcissistic, but I don't always compliment him." Eileen nodded, then said to him:

"You're even more damn stupid!"

Immediately, Bai Mo's lips twitched. "Hmm, I understand. Eileen, save your praise for when you've learned more about Kyushu culture."

Why?

"Because I am humble."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yumin glanced at him sideways but remained silent. Mo Fan and the others also curled their lips in disapproval.

Bai Mo didn't care whether he had taught wrongly.

Heidi, the student who was auditing the class, nodded seriously, muttering "cutie" and "holy crap" repeatedly.

When Heidi saw Zhao Manyan looking at her, she immediately glared back.

"What are you looking at? If you don't know what I'm talking about, I don't want to talk to you about my little cutie."

"."

Zhao Manyan slapped his forehead. "Then I really am..."

What a terrible tragedy!

Looking at them, Bai Mo asked, "You've been out all day, what did you gain?"

"My back hurts, but it feels very comfortable," Zhao Manyan said.

The others ignored him. Mo Fan had a slight, but not much, smile on his face. "There's nothing I wanted here, so I just exchanged some money."

"Me too," Heidi nodded.

Mu Bai, standing to the side, appeared normal. He had purchased some resources to improve his poison cultivation, which were not particularly scarce.

However, items like the Star Sea Celestial Vein are somewhat lacking, and even if there are auction slots available, they may not get a chance to participate.

"What are you looking for?" Eileen asked from the side.

"Star Sea Celestial Vein, I need to prepare for breaking through to the Super Rank," Mo Fan said.

"Our family has this, but it usually requires a lot of money or resources to acquire, which is not something I can decide," Eileen said.

"Really, look at this stuff, see if it works. I have a lot more." Mo Fan pulled out a handful of Mountain God Crystals.

Eileen was a knowledgeable person and recognized the item. After thinking for a moment, she said, "You'll need to ask my mother about this. Perhaps you could come and visit the Victoria family."

"We probably can't go for now; I need to visit the Viking family," Bai Mo said.

Upon hearing this, Eileen glanced at him in surprise. "You're going to the Viking family? I'm also going to Oslo. We could go together, perhaps."

"You're going there too?!" Mo Fan asked, somewhat surprised.

"That's right, I came out this time to participate in the Oslo spaceship competition."

"A spaceship competition?" Bai Mo asked, puzzled.

"This is a racing game, a small competition among some of our European families. I can tell you more about it along the way."

After a pause, Eileen glanced at Bai Mo and said, "If you want to meet anyone from the Viking family, you can perhaps participate in this spaceship competition. Anyone from a prestigious family can participate, and Viking Lacey will also be participating."

Eileen believed that since Bai Mo was visiting the Viking family, he must know who Viking Lacey was.

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo narrowed his eyes.

On the other side, Zhao Manyan was already getting excited when he heard that it was a gathering of a group of people.

He likes parties.

"In that case, let's go and see what happens in this competition." Bai Mo made the decision readily.

Seeing this, Eileen smiled and said, "You will definitely enjoy this spaceship race. Trust me, it's a lot of fun."

Upon hearing this, everyone's curiosity was piqued. Even Heidi, who was also European, was unaware of these things because she had spent many years at an Alpine academy.

Since they were bored anyway, everyone decided to ask about the game.

"This game originally started as an activity in Oslo, or rather, within the Viking family, to commemorate their past."

Unable to withstand their persistent questioning, Eileen finally revealed the information she had planned to share on the way.

The spaceship race can be described as a sailing competition or a speed race.

However, in terms of format, Bai Mo felt it was similar to some racing games that drop banana peels, time bombs, or nitro boosts.

There were no special prizes in the spaceship competition; the loser had to answer one question for the champion.

This is the reward.

Legend has it that the earliest ship races were simply a way for pirates to demonstrate their strength.

The loser is required to offer loyalty, so they must answer the winner's question honestly, whatever it may be.

However, now it has become a game competition, and the rewards have become more tangible, namely the flying fish mount.

Bai Mo wasn't interested in any of that; his only goal was to meet Viking Lacey.

After hearing that flying fish could actually fly, Mo Fan seemed to become somewhat interested.

After resting for a night, they left Smoker the next day and set off for Norway.

There is a road connecting the two countries, so they drove there in a rented car.

Upon entering a small town, the group stopped temporarily and found a place to rest and eat.

In a small restaurant, eight people sat together, waiting for their food. Mo Fan, sitting nearby, glanced around and asked疑惑地问道:

"Strange, I haven't seen anyone, and the staff in the shop all look like children. Is there some kind of war there, or are there demons here?"

Upon hearing this, Seaston looked up and gave him a rather disdainful look, while Heidi beside him was speechless.

Zhao Manyan and Mu Bai were also slightly speechless, but they had already gotten used to Mo Fan.

Eileen smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's very peaceful here. It's summer vacation now, and Norwegian adults also have a two-month vacation, so many business activities have been postponed."

Only essential services like these attract some children working summer jobs. Norwegians travel or do other things during this time, which is why you see so few people in the cities.

She chuckled softly after saying that.

"Holy crap, this is awesome!" Mo Fan exclaimed.

"Different regions."

Bai Mo said something, but in his heart he understood Mo Fan's envy, and even envied him more, although he no longer needed to envy him.

"Actually, it's just so-so. It's a holiday, which means there are many places we can't go to and some services we can't enjoy."

Zhao Manyan's gaze swept around, and as he passed some clubs, he said with a hint of regret.

"You little teddy bear, how come you can transfer everything to that?" Mu Bai said.

"You're the dog. Besides, I didn't say anything. You're just overthinking things," Zhao Manyan said.

Bai Mo ignored the two flirting and teasing each other. His attention was suddenly drawn to the two people, one big and one small, buying drinks nearby.

The younger one is working, and he looks very tired; he probably didn't sleep well last night.

The man was unusual; his eyes were red.

This piqued Bai Mo's interest.

"One iced latte, no sugar," the man said to the boy behind the counter.

"Sir, what would you like to drink?" the boy asked, looking exhausted and numb.

"An iced latte without sugar."

Upon hearing this, the boy started operating the machine, instinctively asking, "Do I need to heat it up?"

"An iced latte, no sugar." The man's voice was already tinged with anger.

"Okay!" The boy continued, working slowly and calmly, and asked, "Would you like some candy, sir?"

"No candy." The man calmed down, seemingly somewhat helpless, and after paying, he said firmly:

"You little rascal, focus on your work!"

"Sir, what would you like to drink?" the boy asked instinctively, then after a couple of seconds, he realized what he meant and said, "Oh."

It was clear that he was extremely tired.

"So that's what you're watching. It's really interesting." Eileen also noticed this scene.

"That guy did it on purpose, didn't he?" Mo Fan said.

"No, you can tell he's very tired."

"I'm not interested in him, I'm interested in that guy," Bai Mo said at this moment.

"Eileen, did you notice? His eyes are red. I heard that Viking Lacey's lover also has pink eyes."

"A lover? Oh, you mean that guy Ed?!"

Eileen glanced at the man, her golden eyes flashing, before she remembered who Bai Mo was talking about.

"He does have red eyes, but they don't quite resemble those of the Danish royal family; he's probably wearing colored contact lenses. Ed's pink eyes, however, are natural."

Perhaps it's because girls are naturally inclined to gossip, but mentioning Ed also piqued Irene's interest in talking.

"He doesn't have a good reputation in Denmark. You may have heard that Ed is the illegitimate son of the Queen of Denmark."

"Why? Is it because of his status?" Heidi asked.

"Pretty much, but not because of being an illegitimate child. Because Ed is not the Queen of Denmark's child."

"Why is that? Is he the king's child with another woman?" Zhao Manyan asked curiously. Hearing this kind of gossip certainly satisfied one's curiosity.

Seeing that everyone's attention was drawn to her, Eileen continued:

"No, he is not a descendant of any Danish royal family. He was rescued by a Danish prince after a hunting trip."

It is said that he was chosen to become the prince's bodyguard because he had eyes that resembled those of the Danish royal family.

However, the Queen later saw him and found him very handsome, so she adopted him. This story is widely known in Denmark.

"Then why is Ed in the Viking Hunters? Shouldn't he be in Denmark?" Ding Yumin asked.

Eileen shook her head. "After his adopted son status was discovered, he left on his own and then appeared in the Viking Hunters. I don't know what happened in between."

"Perhaps that prince was afraid of him vying for the throne," Mo Fan said.

"Foolish. The Danish royal family isn't very powerful; they're practically vassals of the Vikings. If I were Ed, I would have already gone back to fight them off," Seaston scoffed.

Mo Fan glared at him, unable to find a logical rebuttal, and simply said, "What are you saying, you rookie knight? I didn't ask you."

"I'm not a newbie," Seaston glared. "Let's fight if you dare."

"Go ahead and fight, I'm not afraid of you."

"Sit down." Bai Mo glanced at the two of them.

The two looked at each other, snorted in unison, and sat down.

"If that's the case, then Ed and the Danish royal family actually have no connection?" He looked at Eileen.

"That's true. The reason this person became famous is because he got involved in a royal scandal." Eileen nodded.

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo felt slightly relieved.

He had been worried that since Ed was connected to the Danish royal family, the token might have been brought over from there.

If he exchanges this token with Viking Lacey, will there be any further complications?

The reason for seeking out Lacey is because Ed belongs to the Viking family.

What he wants to acquire may very well belong to the Viking family.

Even if not, as the direct descendant of the family, Viking Lacey has the right to dispose of Ed, not to mention the things on his person.

After a satisfying meal, the group continued their journey to Oslo.

This is also a port city, and the long bay stretches as far as the eye can see, making it a perfect runway for ships.

Unlike other sparsely populated areas of Norway, this place is very crowded.

"There's a spaceship competition going on around this time, and they've all come to watch," Eileen said.

Walking along the coast, Bai Mo asked, "Where are we going?"

"Of course, we're going to the Vikings' encampment here. If I'm not mistaken, Lacey should be there preparing the ships."

The ships in the spaceship race are all provided by the organizers, and the largest organizer is the Viking family.

"I can't wait to modify it!" Heidi said.

With Eileen's previous explanation, they knew that magicians were not allowed to use magic in the spaceship competition.

However, one can use magic to alter one's ship, adding various magical items to it to produce a variety of effects.

The magic items were also provided by the organizers, and they were all of very low quality.

The advantage is that it's incredibly easy to assemble, allowing you to achieve the desired effect.

For example, if someone wants a magic turret, they can assemble it, but the power of the magic projectiles fired will only be at the level of a fireball.

It can destroy the other party's ships, but it can't hurt people.

Many of the magical items used in the competition are like this.

These can hardly be considered magical tools or artifacts.

But precisely because of this, the beginner, intermediate, advanced, and even super-advanced levels have been brought to the same level.

It's all about skill and teamwork, not brute force or throwing bricks, so even beginners have the chance to become champions.

That's what makes the competition interesting and engaging.

It also became a game.

Soon, following Eileen, they arrived at the Viking family's encampment here.

This was a fairly large seaside fortress. The fortress guards let Eileen in without asking any questions.

It seems that the two of them have a good relationship.

Bai Mo felt that saving Eileen at the crucial moment was the right thing to do.

Although it was just a seaside settlement, its area was no smaller than the Bai family's manor.

Shortly after entering, a maid came over.

"Your Grace, Captain Lacey is at the Western Sea Gardens. Please follow me, and all guests."

"Thank you, Aunt Nia."

Eileen smiled and said something, then followed ahead, and the group arrived at the western sea garden under her guidance.

Just as its name suggests, a vast expanse of flowers grows on the surface of the sea. Following the translucent crystal tiles, they arrive at the center of the garden, which is also the highest point.

The maid withdrew automatically, and Eileen entered the central pavilion without any hesitation. In a pavilion next to a rose lawn, she met Viking Lacey.

Before they even got close, Eileen excitedly said:

"Hey, Lacey, I'm not late this time, and I brought some friends with me."

"You've finally arrived! I heard you were being hunted down. Also, welcome to your friends." A pleasant voice rang out, sounding somewhat familiar to Zhao Manyan.

Immediately afterwards, he saw a blonde, busty woman emerge from the shadows of the pavilion, and he gaped in astonishment.

"Why is it her?"

Bai Mo raised an eyebrow, unsurprised.

Two blonde girls walked over with smiles on their faces, both with prominent breasts and long, slender legs.

To be honest, they're quite pleasing to the eye.

"It's nice to meet you again, Mr. Bai Mo. I really enjoyed your music."

As she approached, Lacey first stood in front of Bai Mo, smiling and extending her hand.

"What a coincidence. I feel sorry for my friend's behavior that day." Bai Mo reached out and shook hands with her.

He had seen her on the cruise ship before, but since she didn't reveal her true identity, he didn't go up to say hello.

Then he gestured to Ding Yumin beside him, "This is my girl, Ding Yumin."

"As for them, I don't need to introduce them, do I?"

"She's very pretty," Lacey said with a smile, glancing at Zhao Manyan and the other two.

"I'm not a petty person. Many people like me, and I don't need him, even though he's one of the more rude ones."

Upon hearing this, Mo Fan and Mu Bai wished they could stay as far away from Zhao Manyan as possible.

This has really ruined their image in front of rich women.

"I could have gone over there to sit and chat. I heard that Mr. Bai Mo came here to visit the Viking family."

Clearly, Eileen had already revealed everything in those few words.

Viking Lacey was also very direct, pointing to the chairs in the garden, where snacks and tea had already been set out on the table.

"Of course," Bai Mo said with a smile.

The group sat down and exchanged pleasantries before Bai Mo explained the purpose of his visit.

"Miss Lacey, I'm willing to pay a high price for that item, or exchange it for something else, such as the Bai family's method for making doubling magic artifacts."

"So that's how it is. The token on Ed was indeed given to him by me to prove his identity. I didn't expect it to be connected to the ancient East."

Lacey nodded knowingly, but her expression was somewhat heavy.

"I'd be happy to accept the deal, but Ed went missing during a mission recently. I suspect Saracen was behind it."

"Bai, if you win the spaceship race and obtain news of Ed from Saracen, I'm willing to give you the token, and you'll gain the friendship of the Viking family."

Bai Mo frowned. "Salarsen, are they coming too?"

"I invited them."
