Chapter 40: Paper Man Ailo

Translator: editor3 

He still liked to command paper men. He was efficient and very serious.

Under the guidance of Lei Luo and Princess Wei, the paper man’s character was very good, but he was a little too kind.

In the winter, a bird was injured. This little paper man actually used his own magic power to feed it.

The key to maintaining the paper man’s vitality was magic power.

This was no different from feeding the bird with her own blood.

During that time, Princess Wei was reading an eastern codex. When she became interested, she even gave the paper man a name, Ailo.

In the East, this name meant that she liked Lei Luo.

Lei Luo didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at this name, but he liked it anyway.

Ailo could be considered the first life that the princess and Lei Luo had given birth to.

“Senior, Senior!” Ailo ran over. His voice was that of a child.

“Ailo, do you want to learn magic?” Lei Luo said with a smile.

He was bored anyway, so it wasn’t a big deal to give him some pointers.

Although Ailo was a paper figurine, it wasn’t necessarily impossible to nurture it.

Previously, the Snake God had nurtured an unknown number of students. Now, both the palace and the Hiro Magic Academy continued to be the students of the great wizard Snake God.

“Learn Magic?”

The paper man Ailo was a little dumbfounded. Then, he said in a somewhat disappointed manner, “Senior, I’m just a paper man. How can I learn magic?”

After staying in the academy for a long time, Ailo also understood that the magic academy only recruited humans. A paper man like him would not have a chance.

Moreover, learning magic also required talent. Whether it was the codex or the potion to aid in cultivation, it was not something that a paper man like him could obtain.

“If I say that you can cultivate magic, then you can cultivate. All you have to do is tell me, do you want to?”

Lei Luo laughed.

“Yes, I want to very much!”

Ailo hurriedly nodded. His voice was filled with indescribable excitement.

He knew that his senior’s magic was very powerful.

“Alright, then follow me and learn magic.” Lei Luo nodded.

The paper figurine, Ailo, jumped up in excitement.

Lei Luo started to fight and circled around Ailo.

Based on his senses, the magic in Ailo’s body was very compatible.

There seemed to be room for self-growth, which meant that it could cultivate on its own.

Suddenly, he pointed at the center of Ailo’s brows. He sent his thoughts in, and a mysterious message entered Ailo’s consciousness.

What he taught was not the top-tier meditation technique that he cultivated, but a meditation technique that had been passed down in the palace by the great wizard Snake God.

With Ailo’s magic power, it was easy for him to learn this technique, so it was extremely easy for Lei Luo to teach it.

Through the input of his consciousness, he allowed Ailo to directly comprehend the meditation technique, which saved him a lot of time.

…

Another month passed.

Princess Wei had already left the royal city to explore the Faroe Kingdom. This was her ambition. If she wanted to protect the Faroe kingdom, she had to familiarize herself with the place first.

Although she was very reluctant to leave, Lei Luo did not ask her to stay. After lingering with her, he personally sent her off.

Following her departure, Lei Luo’s mind became completely focused on nurturing Ailo.

Ailo practiced magic very hard, almost to the point of not resting.

At first, Lei Luo thought that Princess Wei was very hard-working, but compared to Ailo, she was still far behind.

Apart from working and sleeping, Ailo practiced magic almost every moment. He was either meditating, exercising, or practicing magic.

Lei Luo was definitely not a qualified teacher, because he did not care much about Ailo’s practice. At most, he would give him a little enhancement potion and pass on some magic books.

When Ailo made a mistake in her practice, he would say something to correct him.

The following days passed by peacefully.

Until one day, the tranquility of the library was finally broken.

“Senior, I’m back.”

Princess Wei’s voice came from afar.

Lei Luo was reading a book and was shocked by this voice.

“This girl, why does she seem more lively?”

Lei Luo was a little speechless.

It seemed that this girl had been wandering outside for a few months and had released her true nature again.

Not long after, a fragrant breeze drifted over, and then the well-dressed Wei appeared in front of Lei Luo.

After not seeing her for a few months, she had changed quite a lot.

It seemed that her figure had become better.

“Eh, you’ve broken through to become a third-level elemental wizard?”

Lei Luo was a little surprised.

“Hehe, that’s right, Senior. I had a fight with an intermediate elemental mage, and then I broke through.”

Wei skillfully sat in Lei Luo’s arms, she smiled and said, “Senior, you don’t know how fun it is outside. I even participated in the magic assembly in the South. There are really many powerful mages, many powerful magic academies, and many elves. It’s a pity that I’m not strong enough. Otherwise, I would definitely become the president of the Union of Magic!

“Now, I have another name in the Southern Magic World—Angel Ivy. I’m even on the list of mages!”

Then, Wei told him a lot of things that had happened outside.

Lei Luo was speechless. This girl really knew how to cause trouble.

Fortunately, she had the protection of a high-level elemental mage. Otherwise, she might not have even been able to come back alive.
