Reincarnation with AI (Unemployment-Free)

Chapter 64 Letter

"Rudy, there's a letter for you," Paul said as he pushed open Rudy's door.

Rudius, who was sitting on the bed making dumplings, looked up in surprise at Paul who had just entered the room: "And my letter? A letter to the children?"

"Hahaha." Seeing Rudius's surprised look, Paul laughed out loud, then shook the letter in his hand and added, "It's little Loki."

"Hmm? Is it a letter from Master?" Rudeus stopped his magic and jogged toward Paul.

This was the first letter Rudeus II had received.

After receiving the letter, Rudius glanced at it briefly before opening the envelope.

Paul stood to the side with his arms crossed, tilting his body to look at the letter in Rudius's hand, clearly wanting to see what Loki had said in the letter.

Taking out the letter, Rudeus felt as if he could smell Lokishi's scent again. After a slight sense of nostalgia, Rudeus unfolded the letter and looked at the familiar handwriting.

Dear Rudy:

How have you been lately?

Time flies, and two years have passed since we parted.

I am currently stranded in the capital of the Kingdom of Xilong.

After I ventured into the labyrinth as an adventurer, I somehow managed to make a name for myself.

I later learned that conquering a maze solo was a remarkable achievement.

After that, someone from the royal palace actually came to hire me as a tutor.

I didn't expect Rudy to be right, but remembering what you said to me before, I finally gave up.

Actually, I did ask Miss Lilia at the time, and it's true, just like Rudy said, that the people in the palace are all very abnormal.

I am very worried that I might encounter misfortune in the palace.

Unfortunately, one of the conditions they proposed was to appoint me as a court magician.

After becoming a court magician, one can borrow magic books from the royal collection.

I also want to continue studying magic. I heard that the library of the Kingdom of Xilong contains books on water-level magic.

It's a pity, but staying in the palace and being harassed by perverts means I won't have time to study magic. Oh well, Rudy, are you already able to use Water Emperor-level magic?

Or has the magic in other systems also been upgraded to the Saint level?

I imagine that with your diligent efforts, you might have already begun to explore healing and summoning magic.

Or have you already begun formal swordsmanship training?

Have you temporarily put aside your magical training?

It's a pity, but you must be very skilled in swordsmanship.

My goal is to become a water god-level mage.

As I've said before, if you encounter a bottleneck in your magical abilities, please knock on the door of La Noah Magic University.

Even without a letter of recommendation, Rudy, you would surely pass the entrance exam with ease.

We've gotten a bit off-topic.

After two years of training, I plan to return to school.

Of course, conquering dungeons is also very interesting, and I might continue living the life of an adventurer.

Since I don't have a fixed address yet, I might have already left by the time my reply arrives, so there's no need to reply.

Luo Qixi enters.

Rudius silently finished reading the letter in his hand.

There was a moment of silence.

It felt like I had returned to the time when I was taught by him.

The scent of Loki in the air seemed even more real.

It wasn't the smell of ink and paper, but rather the faint, unique scent of Luo Qixi herself.

Rudius couldn't quite put his finger on what it was, but if he closed his eyes, he could almost picture Loki standing right in front of him, dressed in that familiar traveler's attire, waiting somewhat anxiously for his reply.

It's great that we didn't go to the palace, but continuing to be an adventurer also carries great risks.

Single-player dungeon walkthrough.

This is indeed a remarkable achievement, but not prioritizing one's own safety is incredibly childish.

With Loki's skill level, she's more than capable of being an adventurer.

But the environment inside the maze is even more complex.

Traps, monsters, unknown dangers—any mistake could be fatal; losing the ability to act means the end.

There are no teammates to rely on, and there are just too many things to worry about.

Rudius still couldn't shake off his past life's mindset, which was an instinctive aversion to danger.

"Hey~? That little Loki can actually conquer the maze by herself, that's amazing," Paul said with admiration.

"Dad, you're watching way too slowly," Rudeus complained.

"I've only just gotten to where I was, Rudy!" Paul said irritably. "I waited until you finished reading before I spoke, okay?"

"Is that so?" Rudius asked doubtfully.

I was so focused on reading the letter that I didn't notice what Paul actually did.

Is he saying that he held back until now before speaking up?

"Honestly, seeing how amazing you all are, I need to work harder too," Paul said irritably, then casually opened the door and walked out.

The door closed a little louder than usual.

Rudius stared at the door for two seconds.

Since being defeated by Rudius, Paul has been working hard to improve his skills.

Like the sword practice we did before, that kind of behavior was actually to maintain the vitality of the body and prevent it from rusting, rather than to improve one's strength limit.

Now, when I leave home in the morning and come back in the evening, sometimes I'm so tired that I don't even want to talk.

He may have spoken lightly, but he probably still cares. Being defeated by his seven-year-old son is a painful experience for any father.

Senis also commented after seeing it that Paul is the kind of person who won't work hard if he doesn't feel a sense of urgency.

Forget about Paul for now.

Rudius took the letter and walked to the bed, where he sat down and read it carefully once more.

I read even slower this time.

Rudius carefully examined the handwriting left by Loki.

The ink had slightly smudged in some places on the letter, probably because I stopped writing halfway through and thought about it again and again, and the pen tip rested on the paper for too long.

Rudius imagined that scene.

Luo Qixi sat at a table in a hotel, biting her pen, thinking about how to describe her experiences over the past two years and how to ask him about his current situation.

"Rudy, are you already able to use Water Emperor-level magic?"

This made Rudeus chuckle; Loki always had high expectations of him.

As for Emperor level, maybe. After practicing for so long, it's about time I reached the threshold of Emperor level.

Without a comparison, Rudius himself didn't know the specific level.

"Or has the magic in other systems also been upgraded to Saint-level? I think with your hard work, you might have already started to explore healing magic and summoning magic."

Healing magic has been practiced, but summoning magic is completely new to him.

After all, even a skilled cook can't cook without rice.

No one taught Rudeus any summoning magic.

Rudeus spent most of his time on the depth of existing magic rather than the breadth of unknown magic.

Without realizing it, Rudius read the letter again with a smile, folded it up, and wanted to put it back in the envelope.

However, just as he was about to put it back, Rudius stopped and looked up at the closed door.

Rudius brought the letter to his nose and sniffed it carefully.

I miss Luo Qixi a little.

At this moment, Rudeus really wanted to rush into Loki's arms.

But holding the letter in his hand, he thought of how it had once been held by Luo Qixi.

Rudius felt that the distance between him and Loki was extremely far, as if the other person was in another world.
