Chapter 54: Disagreements Between the Maids
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The next day, the sun had just risen in the morning.
It was a bright day, and the evil that belonged to the night began to recede like a tide.
In the south of the continent, near the capital of Langham, there was a small castle.
It was running as usual today.
The owner of the castle, Eddie, had put his full attention on his cultivation the night before.
He didn’t notice what was happening in his castle.
He had just become a Tier 3 mage.
As he had personally faced a high rank mage before, that kind of pressure made him never want to relax in his cultivation.
He thought that he would be a little tired after a night of cultivation.
However, he did not feel the slightest bit of fatigue. Instead, he was still feeling active.
When he was training, he had to focus completely at all times.
However, the energy around him had been nourishing his spirit, so Eddie did not feel the slightest bit of fatigue when he was training.
If other mages who practiced magic heard this, they would definitely want to strangle Eddie to death.
After all, it was common knowledge that one had to stop to rest after one or two hours of practice.
Yet Eddie could actually continue to practice without feeling tired. How could this be allowed?!
This was equivalent to Eddie practicing while others were eating.
While others were sleeping, Eddie was practicing.
While others were practicing, Eddie was still practicing.
This efficiency was several times higher than ordinary mages who were practicing!!
And this did not include the increase brought by Eddie’s system.
When Eddie turned on the system interface again, his overall strength became stronger again.
[Name: Eddie Edward]
[Name: Eddie Edward]
[Symbol: Infinite Energy Harvester]
[Occupation: Tier 3 mage (30/500)]
Skills: Tier 1 all-elemental spell, tier 2 all-elemental spell, spell fusion.
Talent: none.
Intelligence: 40
Strength: 40
Stamina: 40
Agility: 40
Bloodline: 40
For an average person, there was a limit to how much a human could resonate with the attributes of various spells.
The ability to use the power of one element was already the limit.
Being able to learn two different elemental spells at the same time was already very powerful.
However, he was different. As long as he bought the skills from the magic shop, he could use all-elemental spells.
In addition, the spell fusion was a heaven-defying skill.
The power that he could use had gradually given him a certain degree of self-protection.
He had secretly tried it. When a Tier 1 fire-type spell and a Tier 1 water-type spell were fused, the power that erupted was almost comparable to a Tier 3 spell.
Water and fire did not mix well. When the two opposing elemental powers combined, they would become extremely violent.
Water magic was relatively mild, but fire magic was much more explosive. When the two elements combined, the dissonance between the two immediately increased.
The power of the explosion was almost as strong as Tier 3 magic.
Moreover, he discovered that for elemental magic, one plus one was not just two, but greater than two.
When it came to combining Tier 2 water magic and Tier 2 fire magic, the power manifested was definitely beyond Tier 3 magic.
Following this train of thought.
When Tier 3 water magic and Tier 3 fire magic combined...
When Tier 4 water magic and Tier 4 fire magic combined...
Although Eddie did not know how powerful the later spells were, he did not doubt that the spell fusion was definitely one of his trump cards in the future!
Other than skills, the system initially gave him an intelligence of 30, but now it had become 40.
Due to the upgrade, Eddie realized that his mind was clearer and his memory was better.
He could think about several things at the same time.
This would be very helpful to him in the future when it came to fighting or learning magic.
As he learned more magic and his skill became more powerful, he also needed a good brain to match this ability.
In this way, he would then be able to match his thoughts with his movements better during battle.
He would also be able to understand profound and obscure incantations.
Now, his intelligence had increased to 40.
His thinking and understanding of battle moves had improved by another level compared to before.
He could now play chess with himself in his mind. He could clearly remember the entire chessboard, and he could also think about his opponent’s moves.
Moreover, not only his intelligence, but his strength had also become stronger.
Now, his strength could easily crush an adult beginner warrior.
In terms of strength alone, he was as strong as a Tier 2 knight or warrior.
If the outside world knew that a Tier 3 mage had such a physical quality, they would definitely be shocked.
‘As a mage, you should just focus on training your magic! What is the point of training your body so well? Don’t tell me you want to fight with them with a wand!’ they would say.
After reading the main points, Eddie was now looking at the last part, the bloodline. In fact, he did not quite understand what this thing was for.
But the system’s products must be of high quality.
Eddie put it aside for the time being.
In short, after such a long period of training, he had improved in many ways this time.
Eddie was very satisfied with his data.
In this way, he was one step closer to becoming the strongest person in this world.
The safety factor would also be higher.
While feeling the change in the data, Eddie also felt a little hungry.
It was time for breakfast, so Eddie went downstairs.
He arrived at the restaurant on the first floor.
It was business as usual today.
There were only him and the three cute maids in the castle.
The only change was that today, the three maids were gathered together.
They were mumbling as if they were discussing something.
However, when Eddie came down and appeared in their sight, they tacitly stopped discussing.
Facing Eddie’s gaze, the three maids stood in line and greeted him with smiles.
“Good morning, Master.”
“Good morning, Master Eddie!”
“Good morning, Master.”
Three different voices came from the mouths of the maids.
“Did I miss something, my lovely ladies?”
Eddie looked at the three of them curiously.
He could not help but tease them as he recalled the way the three lovely maids were discussing something earlier.
“It’s okay, Master. Sit down and eat your breakfast.” Emily elegantly moved the chair out and asked Eddie to sit down.
Eddie naturally sat on it.
As a person from another world, he was not used to being served by others in such an attentive manner.
He felt a little reserved and stiff.
Thor and Hermione covered the corners of their mouths when they saw this and looked at Emily and Eddie with smiles.
They felt that their Master was cute, but at the same time, they were full of praises for Emily.
As expected of Emily, her aura was so strong that she immediately had the young Master under control.
After Eddie sat down, he didn’t continue the topic.
Just now, he might have accidentally bumped into a little secret between the maids.
Although he was a lord and the other party was his maid, it was impolite to casually inquire about the privacy of others.
Eddie didn’t put on airs as a Master.
So he didn’t ask any more.
When she saw Eddie had seated down and was waiting for his meal, Emily placed the butter, milk, bread and eggs that were on the dining cart to the table.
When he smelled the aroma, Eddie immediately felt his stomach rumble.
He smiled and nodded to the three maids.
He didn’t stand on ceremony anymore.
He immediately took the bread and began to bite.
Looking at him, the three maids secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, their Master didn’t find out what they were talking about just now and he also didn’t pursue the matter further.
Otherwise, if Eddie heard them talking about a succubus, a dragon servant or a demoness, he would definitely be shocked.
Why would his maids talk about these evil creatures?
These were things that only existed in the demon world.
The demon world was a place filled with evil energy, as it could seduce humans into signing a contract and letting the demon world’s creatures out.
Therefore, the humans of the Lune Continent were very wary of the demon world.
Although Eddie didn’t know much about it, he had read many examples of demon creatures seducing humans from books.
Without exception, they all ended in tragedy.
The books told him not to touch them, but Eddie actually didn’t care.
Which demon creature was so dangerous? Even if it was, what did it have to do with him?
He was just a baron of a small kingdom.
How could he have anything to do with the demon world?
And even if there was, he didn’t care.
Because his mind was now full of how to become stronger and earn gold coins to learn skills.
These creatures could do whatever they wanted, as long as they didn’t disturb his cultivation.
The three maids didn’t have any cultivation problems, as they were different from Eddie, who was a cultivation maniac who only focused on cultivation.
However, there were some problems with the castle management.
The thing they were talking about was none other than the dozen assassins who broke into the castle yesterday but were trapped by the castle’s beasts.
Having more than a dozen prisoners could actually relieve the boredom of life.
However, the three of them had some problems with the distribution of the number of people.
There was no other reason.
In the words of Emily, who was a fallen angel, since they were all women, they could all turn into succubi as it would save them a lot of trouble anyway.
But Thor felt that there were already enough succubi in the castle’s dungeons, so it would be best to turn them into her dragon servants. If there were too many succubi, there wouldn’t be enough men in the demon world.
Hermione felt that since they were all assassins, there was no need to waste them. It would be best to directly turn into her own female assassins.
After all, these people were all natural born assassins, so they were most suitable to be transformed.
The three of them had a small disagreement over how to deal with the prisoners.
