I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha

When Roland went to the restaurant in the morning, Natasha acted as if nothing had happened.

She greeted Roland with a smile.

"Come and have breakfast." Natasha beckoned Roland.

Both of them pretended that nothing had happened last night.

While eating, Roland inquired about servants and made some requests.

Wallace shook his head after listening, saying, "I don't have any suitable servants on hand right now, and your conditions are too harsh."

After a pause, he added, "If you're in a hurry, you can keep an eye out when you pass through Black Forest on your way to the academy today. Some magical creatures should be able to cope temporarily. Also, there's something that might be barely usable. After you buy your equipment and magical tools later."

After breakfast, Wallace pulled Roland onto the street, intending to quickly get all the things Roland needed for school, and then send him to the academy as soon as possible.

An hour later, Roland walked out of the tailor shop wearing a set of Fire Demon Lizard Hunter leather armor, a Mooncloth robe, and an elf hooded cloak.

This outfit was impenetrable to swords and spears, and impervious to flames.

When Roland read through Aleye's notes, he saw that its effects were: [Magic Resistance +23%, Evasion +8%, Fire Magic Resistance +2, Physical Resistance +2].

Roland felt that the physical defense of this set of equipment was about the same as plate armor, and ordinary bows and crossbows couldn't penetrate it at all.

Weak fire magic with less than 2 units of damage could basically be immune to it.

Its effect was equivalent to a decent defensive magical item.

The price was a total of 500 magic stones.

Roland spent 0 magic stones.

Because Wallace signed the bill at the tailor shop—on credit.

Before leaving, the old tailor cautiously hinted to Wallace that a certain lady had already accumulated many, many debts here.

Wallace frowned and scolded him a couple of times.

The general idea was that if a certain lady had the interest to come in person, how dare you mention money to me?

You should put up a sign and circle the lady's shoe prints!

The old tailor was covered in sweat and bowed as he watched Wallace and Roland leave.

Turning back, Wallace said to Roland, "Remember! The poorer you are, the more you have to put on a brave face and act rich.

If you and the lady are even slightly frugal today, all the creditors will come knocking tomorrow, and the Alexandra family's house will collapse!"

Roland's expression was quite interesting: 'Just how poor has the Alexandra family become!'

'No wonder the senior didn't give me even one magic stone when we left the other day!'

'Just how much debt does the senior owe?'

Wallace told Roland that although the clothes were bought on credit in the name of the Alexandra family, Roland would have to pay them back in the future.

Look, such a big family is haggling over such a small amount of money with a little apprentice, what else can Roland say?

He naturally said that he would pay back the money.

"Don't be silly and run to the tailor shop to pay back the money yourself.

Every debt we owe must never be repaid! If you pay one, all the others will come knocking! Just pay a little interest every month."

Wallace warned, "Don't give the five hundred magic stones directly to the lady; she can't accept money from you in person.

You have to give the money to me first, and then I'll pass it on to the lady."

It sounded like Catherine, the dignified heiress of the Alexandra family, was short of even 500 magic stones, but she was too embarrassed to ask Roland for it in person!

So Roland had to go around in circles, first giving the money to Wallace, and then Wallace giving it to the senior.

"This life is really not easy." Roland rubbed his face and said, "Don't worry, Wallace.

I'll give you the money when I earn it, I won't mess this up."

"Let's go, continue!" Wallace pulled Roland and continued to the next store.

Two hours later, Roland had bought all the things he needed.

This time Wallace didn't buy on credit, because they were all small, miscellaneous items.

The purchased items mainly included all the magic items used by wizard apprentices, some valuable combat potions, textbooks needed for school, and so on.

The magic items Roland chose were the best, basically everything Wallace had, Roland bought it all, and the quality was better than what Wallace used.

In addition, Roland also bought many combat-type magic potions.

Some to heal injuries, some to restore magic power, and some to dispel curses.

In addition, Roland also bought a substitute doll.

This thing can withstand a black magic attack from a mid-level apprentice.

Such as curses, sorcery, mental control, and other magics that are difficult to protect against with the 'Lantern Barrier'.

The substitute doll can block one move for Roland.

Roland originally wanted to buy a Daily Spell Compendium, but Wallace told Roland that this kind of book could be borrowed from the library, so Roland saved the money.

At this point, Roland had bought everything he needed before entering school.

He had 70 magic stones left in his pocket.

Counting the money, Roland's face was dull: "I spent more than three hundred magic stones today. My original budget was forty magic stones."

After a pause, Roland looked at Wallace: "You said you had purification potions here before?"

Wallace's old face lit up with joy: "Roland, today is your lucky day.

I checked my stock in the basement this morning and found that they were all intact—my potions are the best potions on the whole street!

It can purify pollution, delay the effects of curses, and heal injuries! It's almost omnipotent!"

"Is there really such a potion?" Roland frowned: "How much does it cost?"

"Not expensive... but also very expensive." Wallace stroked his beard and said, "It's very expensive to sell to others, but to sell to you... 50 magic stones, buy one get one free."

If Wallace hadn't been bragging just now, this price was simply too cheap.

Roland couldn't help but look at Wallace with a suspicious expression.

"Haha, Brother Roland, although the things I sell are often criticized, my customers have never thought of changing to another person to cooperate with.

Because my products are really useful."

Wallace changed the subject and said, "However, I have a small condition."

At this time, the two passed by a 'mission board'. Today was a holiday, and the freshmen had been in school for three months, so many people were trying to come out to do missions during the holiday.

Most of the tasks on this notice board were near the academy and were relatively easy.

Some people who planned to return to the academy today would take a mission along the way to earn some extra money.

Wallace saw that there were many people here, so he pulled Roland and said, "Let's go, let's go, let's talk in the alley—hehehe, this condition is that I have a strange object that is not easy to sell, and you just happen to need a servant."

Roland interrupted: "Wallace, if I buy your potion, I'll only have 20 magic stones left."

"You can buy on credit! Pay in installments!"

In the words, the two had already entered the alley.

Roland asked curiously, "What kind of strange object is it that you have to sell to me?"

Wallace raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Do you still remember that Wind Prince from yesterday?"

Hearing about the Wind Prince, Roland suddenly lost interest.

He already had a lot of strange objects, and the Wind Prince was completely a showy, useless thing.

It looks very mighty and powerful, but it can only deal with rookies.

Moreover, the Wind Prince has no spirituality, and Roland doesn't want such a servant.

Roland obviously didn't plan to buy it, but Wallace's next words made Roland realize that he really needed to eat this chicken rib.

"First of all, the enemies at your stage are mainly magical creatures.

Magical creatures can't deal with the Wind Prince like I can.

It's a divine weapon to deal with rookies and small fries!

This Wind Prince will let you use it until you're a mid-level apprentice, no problem."

"Secondly, your magic and strange objects can be used to kill people and steal treasures, or to fight magical creatures one-on-one.

But using them in public would be too conspicuous.

Electric arcs plus the Wind Prince are the best combination for a rich, stupid, and loves-to-play new noble!"

Roland: "."

"Finally..." Wallace took out the Wind Prince magic ring.

Judging from the material of this magic ring, it looks like a high-quality strange object at first glance.

Of course, the Wind Prince doesn't deserve it.

Wallace said, "If you just display it, who can tell that it's trash?

I don't have time to put it up for auction, but you do!

You can put it up for auction to trick fools in the future.

Rich fools will definitely pay a high price to buy it!"

Roland: "."
