Chapter 136 My morality also has a bottom line! (44)
early morning.
Sunshine House.
During breakfast, Rosen couldn't help but sigh: "Mentor, the higher the number of stars, the more difficult it is to improve. In the past few days, I feel that there has been no progress at all."
Taking a hard bite of the soft white bread, he added: "Sometimes there is even the illusion of retreating instead of advancing."
Thrandis comforted her softly: "Don't worry, you are still so young. As long as you keep practicing, you will never regress. If you feel that you are regressing, it is because you are too tired after practicing for a day and are in poor condition."
"If you don't believe it, just look at it when you get up the next morning. I guarantee it will be a little better than the morning before."
Rosen naturally understands this, but after experiencing the rapid progress some time ago, he feels that the current improvement speed is as fast as a turtle crawling.
People who are used to eating big fish and meat may find it difficult to swallow steamed buns with pickles.
The most important thing is that he clearly has seven very powerful extraordinary fire spells, but now he can only stare at them because of his lack of spell casting ability.
Taking another sip of tea, she asked: "Are you free recently?"
"Who made me poor?"
Now, he also got on a carriage. Although it was a low-end carriage that cost less than 300 crowns, it was considered to be out of the ordinary life.
"It's nothing big. It's just that the temple wants to order a batch of gravity spell rune stones from you."
"Uncle Harrick is here~ Please invite him in quickly!"
"I've been studying how to use magic recently. Is there anything you need my help with?"
Xia Lina took the tea and drank most of the cup.
Xia Lina laughed: "Don't worry, of course you will be trained before using it. As for the problem of false triggering, it depends on your skills as a mage."
"1,000 crowns. Has my worth increased so much in one go?"
"Last time you said you would only paint four paintings a month. After I spread the news, many gentlemen expressed their sadness and hoped that you could speed up the frequency. The price is not an issue."
The division of the mages' guild has always been a mystery. The big guys are divided into countless people, and the small guys are divided into different groups. It depends on the mood of the big guys, but Rosen believes that no one dares to hack the temple's money.
After quickly finishing breakfast, Thrandis stretched and yawned.
"I didn't sleep well last night, I need to catch up on some sleep."
Rosen became interested: "Money or obligation?"
I originally thought that nothing would happen today, but I didn't expect that after a while, Xia Lina, whom I hadn't seen for more than a month, came.
The smile has turned into a look of surprise.
"After all, I also have to worry about my reputation."
It's like being ignored when faced with a naked beauty, it really makes people sigh.
As he spoke, he opened his notes to read the requirements.
Although he hasn't gone out much these days, he can probably expect this situation. After thinking about it, he made a new decision: "Then I will only paint one painting for a month, and the one with the highest price will get it."
"Even if I can withstand the world's harsh criticism, I am already old, physically and mentally, and cannot bear the love for my five daughters. Maybe I should only have one, but I don't want to be partial."
Rosen understood: "Oh, praise God."
Rosen lowered his head and continued to read the request. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that the painter's request was too much.
He turned his eyes to the notebook again and saw what was written on it.
"Okay, I will arrange it."
Because, his paintings are very likely to successfully prevent a father from falling into real moral decay, and thus prevent a family tragedy from happening.
"Five pills a day are enough. I don't need it urgently anyway. I'll order 200 pills first, and the same number will be 100 pills. Each pill costs 6 kronor, okay?"
"Miss Xialina, long time no see."
"I have five young and beautiful daughters. Whenever I look at my daughters, I feel a surge of love in my heart. The tragedy is that this is not the love of a father and his daughter, but the love of a lover."
"Of course I'll give you money. The temple won't ask the mage to fulfill his obligations endlessly. Of course, the temple doesn't have enough money, so I hope you can give me a discount."
"Whatever, haha."
It doesn't matter to Harrick, because he is not short of money now, and if Rosen paints less, it does not necessarily mean that he will earn less, maybe he will earn more.
"The one who jumped out of the battlefield with a single jump last time, and the one who rushed forward. They are half the same."
"No, but if you agree, this gentleman will arrange for his daughters to come to Sunshine Villa as guests."
"Well, that's it."
"Rosen, you don't know how famous you are now. Everyone says you are the master of Liushu, the sage of the stars, and the great master of gravity."
"There is no need to be a guest, because my teacher likes to be clean. Just pass by the entrance of the courtyard at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, and I will just take a look."
He suggested: "If the temple is willing to go to the guild for me to ask for a share, I can sell these two spells publicly in the mage guild."
"Tell me, Uncle Harrick, what do the customers want to see this time?"
This is the truth. Although making rune stones is a basic skill that every mage must have, his time to learn spells is too short. Although he can make rune stones, he can only be said to be just getting started.
"Master Rosen, please help me and let me realize my wish in the imaginary world."
This world is not like Earth, and there are still some bottom lines for issuing confession coupons. The content of the confession will be reviewed before issuance.
The rune stone is a one-time magic weapon that is simple to create, low cost, and convenient to use. Of course, it also has many limitations.
Forget about an ordinary notebook, after all, it is human nature. If the theme is too perverted, it will be difficult for him to accept it. If he draws too much, it will really give him a bad reputation.
Rosen corrected: "To be precise, it's the relationship between my mentor and me."
Rosen shook his head: "No, no, no, the world of magic is vast and boundless. Painting is just my side job and it can't take up too much time."
Harrick naturally knew the content of the request and smiled awkwardly: "It is indeed a bit excessive, but the customer gave me a full 1,000 kronor, you know, this is a lot of money."
After all, although his moral bottom line is a little lower, it still exists.
Faced with this matter, Thrandis had no choice. Failure to start enlightenment training from a young age was a shortcoming that Rosen could not make up for. Now, in this situation, he can only use time to get over it.
Rosen sighed, suddenly feeling that his career had become somewhat great.
Rosen liked this red-haired and red-bearded man very much because he always gave him money every time he came.
"Exactly the same. Okay, but you tell the employer that I won't draw too explicit, and will appropriately cover sensitive parts."
"Yes, it's best to be exactly the same, and the details must be rich."
Now that he is considered a big shot, he is no longer short of money, so he must cherish his feathers.
"Of course there are discounts, but I know many kinds of gravity spells, and not all spells are suitable for constant entry into rune stones."
"By the God of Gold, this is no longer a moral decline, but a very serious moral decline! How can the temple be willing to issue confession coupons?"
"In addition, the theme cannot deviate too far from morality. For example, the theme this time has already reached the limit of what I can bear. If it goes beyond that, I will not draw it."
Rosen said hello and poured her tea.
"These two spells can be integrated into rune stones, but they are not safe. If they are triggered by mistake, or if you do not choose a suitable place to use them, you will be knocked to death or fall to death."
He asked: "Where are the portraits of my daughters?"
In short, when going out, the mage will carry some rune stones with him, but no more than three.
"Rosen, you have become more and more famous recently. Anyone who knows how to read in the streets is discussing you, your flow, your law of gravity, and your private life."
Rosen continued to train his spell-casting skills according to the "Thousands of Hands and Thousands of Thoughts" training method taught by his instructor.
Rosen asked for specific requirements: "Uncle, is it better to make the painting more similar?"
Harrick nodded repeatedly with a look of reverence on his face.
After a pause, I felt that my poor skills might cost someone's life.
Soon, Harrick, neatly dressed and energetic, was sitting in the living room.
Xia Lina looked contemptuous: "You can't get out of the money box? You're just causing trouble for the temple."
Sharina shrugged: "Who told Miss Thrandis to be so low-key?"
"It is true that morality has been lost, but the Golden God is the God of wisdom and kindness. As long as this soul has a heart of repentance, he will never give up saving it."
"Desire swallows up my reason like a poisonous snake. Just when I can't control myself and want to put it into practice, you appear."
Just as I was concentrating on practicing, the gardener came over and reported: "Master, Mr. Harrick is here to visit."
Rosen laughed: "Well, we should have done this a long time ago. How much can we sell this time? God for gold, this request is too much!"
Harrick thought to himself: "I knew this was the case, so I held a qualifying auction, four pairs a month, and the one with the highest price will get it."
With such a morally corrupt theme, he accepted it for the sake of a large amount of gold coins, but he could not fully comply with the employer's requirements.
As soon as he finished speaking, Harrick took out ten confession coupons.
"I knew that if I didn't control it, it would destroy them and it would destroy me."
In this case, Rosen said: "First of all, let's talk about it. Although I can make magic rune stones, I am a beginner and my speed is very slow. I can only make five stones a day."
She went upstairs to rest.
He shrugged, with a hint of schadenfreude on his face: "Oh, now those old gentlemen are going crazy."
Harrick laughed, took out a notebook from his wallet and handed it to Rosen.
"If he doesn't agree, then I won't accept the order."
For example, the effective time is limited, it is easy to trigger by mistake, and various rune stones of the same type are easy to interfere with each other when placed together, etc.
Harrick nodded in approval: "You are right, after all, things are not the same as before. With your current reputation, you are not bad at customers."
"In short, your paintings have great collection value and can be used as family heirlooms."
Although she could still overcome life and death difficulties, she was absolutely reluctant to let Rosen go out and take risks.
"No problem, but why do you have to ask me to make it?"
"Okay, I'll give you money. The main thing is to ensure the quality. After all, you are the creator of gravity. No, now you should be called the founder of gravity magic. As for craftsmanship, you will become proficient after doing it a few times."
"Understood."
After everything was said, I thought Sharina was going to leave, because she has always been a resolute and resolute character.
Unexpectedly, she was silent for a while and then suddenly said: "Rosen, do you want to accept an apprentice?"
