Different from the home that I had lived in for more than three years but had to leave, the current atmosphere is so tense that people are about to collapse. A group of people from the original tower owner who didn't know or care finally arrived at Wulian City. It was also the first time that Lin saw the house that he had bought almost three years ago but had never lived in.
The stewards of the Chamber of Commerce and his family, who were friends with him, stood at the gate to greet him. Because the two girls had been here once before and lived there for a period of time due to the apprenticeship test, the environment was quite familiar. In addition, all the furniture in the house is ready, so you only need to move your things in and everything will be settled. So they didn't spend too much time on this.
The more troublesome thing is the placement of the two big dogs. Fortunately, there is a large warehouse in the corner of the backyard. Lin simply transformed it into an extra-large dog house to serve as a shelter for the two big dogs. As for the issue of the amount of exercise for the beast, it was left to the two people who originally said they wanted to keep it, and they took turns taking the dog for a walk outside the city every day. This requirement cannot be questioned.
The carriage team affiliated to the association, after unloading Lin and others' personal belongings, left in a hurry to prepare for the next shipment of goods.
Looking at the luggage piled up like a mountain in the courtyard, this is not a big problem for a few magicians. The three masters and apprentices used the Light Object Technique and the Giant Strength Technique to move all the things into the house without even the help of the steward and his family.
It's not that Fen doesn't want to help, he's just afraid that if she takes action, it will shock the world. Therefore, Lin strongly requested that the former Demon King just play with her head and coffin obediently and not cause any trouble.
There are such concerns, in fact, it is because there is something that should be done but has not been done for a long time. And it seems that there is no reason not to do it. That's what Fanny Tikal registered with the association.
Do you want to reveal your identity as a former demon king, but now you are a newly resurrected lich? This is the common opinion of Lin and Fen.
Living openly and openly under the sun is a very common thing for most people. For Lin, he has never wanted to hide any secrets. Even his identity from Earth does not think it is a fact that needs to be concealed.
There are many visitors from other worlds in Lost Land, and I am not the first, nor will I be the last. Most people don't know, just because no one asked and he didn't bother to tell. Therefore, he never thought of hiding Fen's identity from others.
For Fen, most of her past experiences were by-products of revenge, so she had no guilt to speak of. She just took back what others owed her and added some interest.
Even if she was really apologetic, the brave men at that time killed her and were sealed away for thousands of years. She didn't think she owed anything to the world. Wanting to live under the sun is a very natural thing.
Of course, all this depends on whether most people can accept it? Just like how the two girls treated Fen at the beginning of her resurrection, Lin had not forgotten it.
For a man who once ruled the world, and was even the only one in the known history of Mystery, who was named the Demon King as a human, and had a lich who killed the gods in his hands. She doesn't have to be hostile, she just needs to exist to make people feel threatened.
For such a person, how to convince most people to accept her, or at least stop talking about conquering the Demon King, is a difficult problem.
But the benefits are not without them. Before others are fully prepared, I believe no one will dare to provoke the former Demon King. This would make the whole world much cleaner, with fewer flies and mosquitoes.
And hide the identity before resurrection and start a new life as a magician? This option is the most stable one, but the downside is Fen's beauty. If there is no corresponding strength, that face will be a disaster.
And it is conceivable that if you do this in the future, you will probably end up in the same predicament that Lin encountered before. People who are greedy for beauty come to the door, get angry in the entanglement, or corner a certain lich, and then explode and die. As a former demon king, these bad things have already been experienced once, and they have reached a bad_end. After being inexplicably resurrected, Fen didn't want to try it again.
If you don't enter the system of the Magicians Association, become a gangster? This is just a matter of discussion, it has never been a consideration.
Not to mention that if you want to use the association's resources, you must register. Being able to enter this system actually represents the first step for her to be accepted. As long as you take the first step, the next step will be easy to move forward.
If you are just satisfied with being a gangster, you will easily become like a mouse. Normally, no one will see you, but if you are exposed in front of everyone, you will definitely be beaten and killed. Everyone intuitively thought that whether this lich or the former devil king was hiding in the shadows, there must be an ulterior conspiracy. In this situation, fight first and then talk.
If the whole situation turns into this, then Fen will have to start killing everyone and conquering the world again.
Simply put, these three considerations are: being feared by others as a demon king, but you have to face the possibility of crusade from the human side; pretending to be an ordinary magician, but easily attracting bees and butterflies because of your beauty, which is also troublesome; finally Even though he is a shady person, as soon as he is exposed, the counterattack may be even more powerful.
Therefore, these considerations are neither for reputation nor for any benefit. They are purely thinking towards the situation with the least trouble. If Fen was just an ordinary magician, or even just an ordinary person, with her beauty and dedication, she would be able to live a comfortable life for several years. It's a pity that she is not, nor does she want to do so in character.
The two discussed it for a long time, but they couldn't come up with a solution. Fen doesn't want to be an enemy of the world anymore, but sometimes these things can't be avoided just by not wanting to.
In the end, Lin chose a method of fighting the battle of confusion. He took Fin to the North Tower to register. Since registration and migration of magicians in the association are quite easy, he asked Fin to fill in his full name. At the same time, on the rank side, fill in 'Great Magician'. What is more difficult is the race column. Should I fill in 'human' or 'lich'?
Strictly speaking, Fen is no longer a human race. Her current appearance is actually a perfect body constructed with magic. This means that her physical body is the same as her skeleton, and the eight powers are in perfect balance, not perfect in appearance. The appearance can be changed at any time. What she looks like now, according to her, is what it looked like during the human period. But, who knows, women.
Whether others can think of the Demon King from thousands of years ago from that name, this kind of thing is not under his control. Whether you believe she is a lich or has the strength of a great magician, the association has its own testing methods. Just don’t expect too much about the efficiency of work in this era, just wait for notification.
However, the association’s work methods are not without progress. Originally, applicants must stay near the headquarters and always pay attention to the association's announcements to avoid missing the agreed inspection - from Lin's point of view, it is more like an interview - date. Now, applicants are asked to fill in their email address, and they will be notified immediately using the new messaging channel.
If you are unable to go, you can make an appointment at another time as long as you reply as soon as possible. This saves the applicant from the dilemma of being tied up near the headquarters, unable to leave, and having to wait.
The work of moving back to Wulian City has come to an end for the time being, and all to-do items have been initially dealt with. Next, let’s return to how to cultivate the power of worry and how to advance on the path of magic? How can it be!
Perhaps when I first learned about the nature of power from Fen, I felt a lot of confusion and confusion. But now that I think about it, that was unnecessary. Now I somewhat understand why the lich and former Demon King was reluctant to talk about such a topic at first. It really has not reached a certain height, and there are many things that cannot be done at all.
Laozi wrote in the Tao Te Ching: Governing a big country is like cooking small delicacies. If you want Lin Lailai, I will cook you. So what if a common man with a flat head knows how to govern a big country? Is there any big country that he can rule? So what's the difference between saying this and playing the piano to a cow?
Some people may say that one should look at the big picture and see the small. What should be learned is the spirit within, not the outward symbol. When I first learned this article in class, Lin remembered a gangster in his alley. Every time he got drunk at a hot-charred stall, he would always say that someone offended him and would drop a nuclear bomb on his house.
A guy who doesn't even dare to hold a watermelon knife, and who at most fights people with a bat, always says he wants to drop a nuclear bomb on someone's head, is he trying to show off his power in the game?
Of course, it is undeniable that what he learned from Fen's mouth gave Lin a clear direction to move forward. Although he didn't know where the road was, he at least knew where he was going, which was good for future development.
But that doesn't mean that you have to aim high now and worry about how you will become a demigod when you become a great magician one day; when you have the ability of a demigod, how you will further ignite the divine fire... Think too much and think too far.
Just take every step in front of you. I didn't see the two young disciples who pestered the lich all day long, causing someone to be on the verge of going dark. If in this era of Lost Land, there is another wave of dark army raised by a certain lich, our two young apprentices will definitely make great contributions.
Putting aside the slim hope of returning home, if things continue like this, I might have to return to my hometown early. So Lin began to think of ways to divert his attention, and there happened to be something that he had always wanted to do since he started going on adventures during his apprenticeship, but he didn't have the time or the ability to do it. Now is an appropriate time to change your mood for yourself.
Instruct the girls to lock bulky, expensive items that are not conducive to travel into the cabinets. Prepare necessary items and dry food for travel. The most important thing is to bring a big bag of Kir, which is gold coins. This time the destination was a small mountain village less than a day's journey north of Wulian City.
It's not really an adventure, and there aren't any monsters raging there. At most, there are some wild beasts that destroy crops. In other words, this time it was more like a relaxing outing. I hope to wash away the grievances I have suffered these days and cleanse my body and mind in a leisurely vacation.
