Filled with doubt, Li Wei was led by Vivian into the library, and then the doors were closed.
Three minutes later, the guard leader rushed over. Seeing his two men standing motionless in front of him, he was immediately enraged and launched into a tirade of abuse.
"Didn't I tell you that His Majesty specifically ordered that discipline must be maintained and that no one is allowed to enter?" The leader glared angrily. "How dare you let people in without even informing me!"
"Sir, it's not that we neglected our duties, it's just that the other party has too much influence," Subordinate A explained, sounding aggrieved.
"How powerful is he?"
“We don’t know how powerful he is, but His Majesty Morgan personally opened the door for him,” Subordinate B said, shrugging.
Guard leader: "@#%**(!……"
……
Meanwhile, inside the library, the dim lighting creates a warm and comfortable environment, perfect for reading.
"What a perfect setting!" the boy couldn't help but exclaim. "I wish it would rain right now."
"Really? That's what I think too."
Vivian smiled and answered him. In a place unseen by Levi, the magic underground surged violently, and clouds piled up above Norwich.
Not long after, a continuous drizzle began to fall.
"It's really raining."
Looking up at the gray sky through the window, accompanied by the gentle sound of raindrops, Li Wei said this to the smiling, literary girl with delight.
……
Meanwhile, far away, a blond woman who looked like a simple country girl, holding a strange cane, was soaked to the bone.
"Why...it was a sunny day just now..."
If Li Wei were here, he would find that her tearful features were remarkably similar to Vivian's.
Chapter 7 featured a deep yet accessible exchange between them.
Inside the warm library, Li Wei and Vivian, both literature enthusiasts, were having a friendly conversation.
The topics of their exchanges include, but are not limited to, philosophy, politics, military affairs, humanity, and nature.
When Li Wei spoke of the pre-Qin philosophers who were contemporaries of Confucius, he would deliberately use Chinese syllables to speak Chinese. This special accent was something Vivian had never heard before since her birth in the Inner Sea of the Stars. It had a very exotic feel to it, as if he were telling the theories of ancient scholars from another world, making it very convincing.
"Nature's movement is vigorous and strong; in response, a virtuous person should be resolute and steadfast, striving for self-improvement. The earth's energy is substantial and harmonious; a virtuous person should cultivate virtue and embrace all things."
Li Wei, holding a candlelight conversation, exchanged knowledge with the fairies of another world: "Even the most virtuous gentleman must learn from heaven and earth. Even if he cannot learn everything, he must at least adopt the proper posture for learning. If one does not learn enough from heaven and earth, he will still be a cautious and diligent person, as the saying goes, 'If you cannot carve a swan, you can still resemble a duck.' If one does not learn enough from dissolute and frivolous people, he will degenerate into a dissolute person, as the saying goes, 'If you cannot draw a tiger, you will end up resembling a dog.'"
The boy hadn't had such a happy conversation in a long time. He was willing to talk, the other person was willing to listen, and it was his favorite rainy day; time seemed to fly by.
……
Outside the door, three people were getting soaked in the rain.
Subordinate A: "Did you hear something?"
Subordinate B: "His Majesty seems to be discussing academic matters with that handsome young man."
Because it was raining and the wind was interfering, the guards couldn't hear very clearly and could only try to analyze the fragments of conversation carried by the wind.
"Get into position... ...not quite there... you rascal... dog~"
Subordinate A: "Are they really discussing academic matters? The more I listen, the more something seems off."
Subordinate B: "This... I don't really know much about this either..."
Guard leader: "If you don't understand, shut up!"
……
"Governing a country is like cooking small fish and shrimp; it requires just the right amount of time, neither too much nor too little."
Unbeknownst to them, the distance between them grew smaller and smaller, their tone became more and more natural, and the scope of their discussion expanded from philosophy to other fields: "There was once a king who was extravagant and disregarded the people's well-being. He engaged in large-scale construction projects, summoned beauties to fill his harem, and defiled the palace. He was truly ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth. Such a king was simply unqualified. How could someone like that want to protect his country? In the end, he sat on the dragon throne and mocked himself, 'Who will behead my fine head?'"
……
"Beauty...you are truly...a depraved...king...completely unfit for the job. How can someone like this want to protect his country?"
Subordinate A: "Although I have no academic achievements whatsoever, I am certain this is not a discussion about academics."
Subordinate B: "Brother, the biggest guarantee in our line of work is to listen to your superiors. If His Majesty says it's academic, then it's academic!"
Subordinate A: "You're right, we didn't hear anything."
Subordinate B: "That's right."
The head of the guards said, "I suddenly don't want to do this anymore. Will His Majesty silence me if I overhear too much?!"
……
Inside the library, the two sides became increasingly friendly and their conversations broadened. They even moved a table, placed a map of the Fairy Kingdom on it, and began discussing political matters.
So engrossed in his work, Li Wei accidentally touched Vivian's strange scepter. The scepter was incredibly sharp, cutting a gash in the boy's hand.
"!!!"
The literature-loving girl, who had been engrossed in her studies, suddenly lost her composure and exclaimed in surprise. She then grabbed Li Wei's injured arm, bandaged it with a handkerchief, and finally used water magic to gently heal the wound.
The bleeding wound stopped instantly and then healed rapidly.
"What a wonderful healing magic trick!" Li Wei praised sincerely.
"It doesn't hurt anymore, right? Want to learn? I'll teach you." Vivian seemed very confident: "You need to mobilize the water element first. When you sense that there's more water in the surrounding air, you can... You've learned it!? That's clever, but something's not quite right. It should be like this, then like that... Yes, it's much better now. Show it to me... Hmm, not bad, it feels good."
……
Just as Li Wei was scratched, Vivian cried out in alarm.
Subordinate A: "..."
Subordinate B: "Ah, I know that. Nothing happened, right? It's been very quiet inside."
Subordinate A: "That's true, but this time... wasn't Your Majesty shouting a little too loud?"
The guard leader: "...Why are you talking so much nonsense? Why don't you go up and take a look?"
The two subordinates were stunned for a moment, then shook their heads so hard they almost threw their helmets off.
Subordinate A: "Whoever wants to go can go, I'm not going. If you want to go, go ahead, whoever goes is an idiot!"
Subordinate B: "That's right. If we actually see something that displeases His Majesty, we'll all lose our heads."
The head of the guards said, "That's right. Maybe His Majesty is happy."
At the same time, as a night breeze blew by, intermittent sounds came again:
"It hurts... a little more... but it's much better now... it feels very comfortable..."
The head of the guards said, "Listen, I told you so, His Majesty is very happy."
Subordinates A and B: "As expected of the boss!"
……
The two then exchanged their insights on magic and philosophy, both feeling they had gained a great deal that evening.
It was only at this moment that the two realized that their posture seemed a little ambiguous, and the distance between their bodies was obviously greater than the normal distance between newly acquainted friends.
"that……"
The literary-minded Vivian seemed somewhat uncomfortable: "Mr. Li Wei..."
"I'm sorry, it was my rudeness." The young man apologized, "It was my fault for causing you trouble."
"That's not true at all." The bespectacled fairy official hurriedly waved her hand: "My conversation with Mr. Li Wei tonight was very pleasant. I haven't had such an experience in a long time."
"Shall we stop here for tonight?"
"Okay, see you tomorrow~"
As she said this, Vivian prepared to get up and take off her glasses.
At that moment, Li Wei stopped her.
“Mr. Li Wei…” The young literary girl looked at him with some curiosity.
"Let's listen to the rain a little longer." For some reason, the boy had a gut feeling.
He reasoned that once Vivian took off her glasses, she would no longer be the image of a literary girl, and it would be difficult for them to have such pleasant conversations again.
"..." After a slight pause, the literary girl gave a gentle smile: "Okay, Mr. Li Wei."
……
outside the house.
Subordinate A: "It seems like there's been no movement."
Subordinate B: "Hmm, it seems to be over. How long has His Majesty been inside?"
Subordinate A: "About three hours."
The guard leader said, "That's quite a long time. I'm never doing this job again, no matter what."
Subordinate B: "Me too!"
Chapter 8 Oh, the super cute older sister!
After parting ways with Vivian, the boy was in a very cheerful mood as he walked back home.
I never expected to make like-minded friends here. We had a pleasant conversation for a long time and agreed to meet again sometime.
Quite by chance, just as the two parted, the light drizzle that had been falling seemed to stop as if it possessed wisdom, making it convenient for him to go home without getting wet. Recalling Vivian walking him to the library entrance and then walking quite a distance away, Li Wei felt a sense of profound connection, like that of Bo Ya and Zi Qi, finding a kindred spirit in each other.
The last time I had this urge was when I first saw the two elements in kindergarten.
The only thing that puzzled him was the strange look the three guards standing at the door gave him when Vivian saw him off.
It was a look that mixed reverence, fear, admiration, and a hint of flattery, a stark contrast to the indifferent attitude they had shown when they first saw him.
But Li Wei didn't feel very comfortable.
Because this wasn't a change in his gaze due to the virtues or character of a gentleman. If one had to describe it, it was more like seeing Empress Chen (A Jiao) beside Emperor Wu of Han, Yang Guifei (Yang Yuhuan) beside Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Feng Xiaolian (Feng Xiaolian) beside Emperor Gaowei of Tang, or Lady Huarui (Hua Rui) beside Emperor Gaozu of the Former Shu dynasty.
This is a complete misunderstanding; my relationship with Vivian is absolutely platonic.
Furthermore, the literary young woman with whom he had a long, intimate conversation seemed to hold a rather high position; she could be considered one of Queen Morgan's favorites.
Although Li Wei did not intend to use her identity for personal gain.
Back in my resting place, I took a quick shower, read for a while, and then prepared to go to bed.
Just then, as if deliberately waiting for him, a light drizzle began to fall outside. The sound of raindrops hitting the leaves made the boy close his eyes comfortably, knowing he could get a good night's sleep.
……
In Li Wei's dream, things have changed again today.
"Isn't this Scáthach's Land of Shadows?" the boy asked, somewhat surprised.
Since arriving in this world, he had never dreamed of Scáthach again, which led him to believe that his special constitution had failed him here.
It now appears that Scáthach was simply blocked due to poor signal.
Now that they've connected to a signal from another world, new guests have arrived in their dreams.
Through his experience over the years, Li Wei has roughly figured out the characteristics of the guests in his dreams.
Both Master Fu and Dr. Bian are upright gentlemen, corresponding to one aspect of my character. Meanwhile, "Mr. Merlin" and Scáthach, who taught me combat techniques, correspond to my warlike and bloodthirsty side. In short, each corresponds to a certain attribute of my personality.
"So who will be coming this time?"
The boy looked around, full of anticipation.
In short, he must be a benevolent and loving gentleman, or a martial arts master with outstanding fighting skills, upright character, meticulous mind, great strength, and wisdom. Yes, that's definitely it.
With this in mind, Li Wei saw a sea of flowers.
Roses, peonies, Chinese roses, peach blossoms, forget-me-nots, tulips, marigolds... countless flowers from different seasons and climates around the world bloom together at this time, vying for beauty, as if we have entered the garden of the gods in legend.
Whether it's the peony of the human world, the fleeting epiphyllum, or the spider lily of the underworld, you can find them all here.
However, what is even more eye-catching than these is undoubtedly the garden owner sitting in the garden, looking at him with a peculiar gaze.
