Chapter 326 A Competition of Numbers? 1

It was a delightful thing for him to see that the students were working hard .

Roland, on the other hand, was “haunted” by Andonara . She greeted him and wiped his face with a towel as if she had forgotten that she was the queen .

Yelia watched for a while before he moved his eyes to the dark sky outside of the window with additional gentleness .

Seeing that their chairman was back, the six magic apprentices of Delpon returned to Roland .

The other magic apprentices, who had been taught a lesson, asked Yelia if he knew the derivative models of Hand of Magic .

Yelia peeped at Roland and replied, “I’ve acquired the derivatives of Hand of Magic from Mr . Roland, but I haven’t understood them yet . I’ll teach them after I grasp them . ”

The magic apprentices of Liguburg City all cheered .

It was already late . Accompanied by Andonara and Vivian, Roland had a nice dinner .

Then, the magic apprentices of the two sides communicated again until midnight .

Roland taught Yelia the basics on data-recording and deduction, and Yelia described the details of Spiritual Endowment .

At about two in the morning, Yelia couldn’t hold back his drowsiness anymore and went to bed .

Roland did not need any rest . He was carefully considering what Yelia just said .

Essentially speaking, Spiritual Endowment served to label the magic nodes .

The NPCs weren’t aware of databases or mathematical models, but they had a basic approach, which was to mark certain nodes as important .

That way, they would be able to distinguish the important nodes from the unimportant ones .

After they were used to it, they could habitually direct their magic power to the important nodes, which would reduce the time spent spellcasting .

Also, the labels in Spiritual Endowment were of different tiers according to their importance .

It was a rather simple method .

Though it seemed shabby, Spiritual Endowment was not easy to learn .

Firstly, it had a high demand on mental power; secondly, one had to be very familiar with the nodes .

Spiritual Endowment did not sound very impressive, but it occurred to Roland that, after he was used to it, it would enable him to cast spells faster .

For example, it would take him less time to charge the fireball, which could be very strategically important .

Even if the time cost was only reduced by one-third, down to six seconds, this skill would still be much handier .

However, Spiritual Endowment also had shortcomings, which was that it could make the learner inflexible .

After all, when the conditional reflexes on the mental level were formed, they might cast the spells in battles without properly adapting the spells to the actual circumstances first .

But it didn’t matter .

All the players knew that no abilities were useless in the hands of a man who knew how to use them .

That being said, they also knew that, even though all the abilities could be useful, there was a fine line between abilities that were useful and those which were very useful .

For the spells that required few variations, such as Self-Exploding Fireball, Thunder Palm, and the buff spells, Roland could fixate them with Spiritual Endowment in order to cast them faster .

But as to the spells that must be applied pertinently, he would not use Spiritual Endowment on them .

After the decision was made, Roland began to practice Spiritual Endowment .

After a night, he found that he made little progress .

He didn’t make no progress, but this ability was much more difficult to grasp than he anticipated .

When the sun was up, Yelia asked a butler to invite Roland and his crew to breakfast .

It was a hearty breakfast . Obviously, the people of Liguburg had put a lot of thought into it .

Everybody was satisfied . Roland and Yelia discussed magic problems while they ate, and the magic apprentices listened quietly .

They did not have the opportunity to listen to the talk of two chairmen every day .

They subconsciously ate more slowly for fear that they might miss a word or two that the chairmen said and misunderstand them .

When breakfast was about to be over, an officer suddenly walked in . He nodded at Yelia and then looked at the strange faces in confusion .

“Excuse me . ”

Yelia smiled at Roland apologetically and walked over to talk to the officer in private .

The officer soon left, and Yelia returned to Roland with a heavy heart . “The mayor’s house was attacked last night, likely by vampires . Would you like to check it out with me?”

“Okay . ” Roland wiped his mouth with a napkin and stood up .

“I’m going too . ” Andonara stood up as well .

“All right . ”

Roland nodded as Andonara could be a powerful ally . The vampires might run away from her if she was by herself, but now that two Mages were with her, they would be committing suicide if they atomized themselves .

Yelia looked at Andonara in surprise . “You shouldn’t risk yourself, Your Majesty . ”

“We might be no match for her even if we attack her together . ” Roland shrugged . “She’s a Master Great Swordsman, and probably the strongest fighter in Hollevin . ”

Andonara smiled in delight .

Yelia, on the other hand, widened his eyes in shock .

Few people in the capital knew that Andonara was very strong, not to mention the residents of other cities .

Vivian stood up . She wanted to go with them too .

But Roland waved his hand at her . He then summoned White Amber and threw it to Vivian . “You stay in the Magic Tower . Inform me if anything happens . ”

Vivian bit her lip and nodded .

Roland took Andonara’s longsword out of the system pack and gave it to her . Then, he left for the mayor’s house with Andonara and Yelia .

At this point, the mayor’s office was heavily guarded, but they cleared the way and let Yelia in the moment they saw him .

It was obvious that Yelia was rather prestigious in the mayor’s house .

Passing through the moat, they entered the castle and found a group of people talking in the hall .

Soon, they noticed Yelia . A young man with golden hair shouted in excitement, “Brother-in-law, you’re here!”

Yelia nodded and joined them . He pointed at the slim young man and introduced, “This is Sarog, the mayor’s youngest son . ”

Then, he introduced the strangers to them . “This is Roland, the chairman of the Magic Tower in Delpon, and this is… Queen Andonara!”

Hearing “queen,” everybody turned around and looked at Andonara in surprise .

Andonara, on the other hand, was holding Roland’s arm very naturally .
