Chapter 115: Chapter 78 Soul Aura_3

That girl is so obsessed with marrying her childhood sweetheart she’s practically gone mad... Does Jacob know about you secretly shouting to "sell yourself" for him?

Ronan was speechless, directly breaking Alida’s unrealistic fantasy.

"No."

Ronan said, "I just wanted to give him an opportunity to earn a little extra cash.

I’m planning to go to a few places to run some errands today, and since I’m new here and don’t know my way around, I need a reliable guide..."

Upon hearing that Ronan was only looking to hire Jacob, Alida was momentarily disappointed, but then quickly rolled her eyes cunningly and mustered the courage to say to Ronan, "Sir, if it is just because you’re unfamiliar with the way, actually I have a better suggestion that is beneficial to both of us..."

"Oh?"

Five minutes later, Alida, pushing a food cart with a cheerful mood, walked out of the room. Inside, Ronan looked at what he held in his hand with a somewhat amused smile... a map.

Alida sold him a map of Seventh Ring City for the price of two low-level magic stones, then asked Ronan to cooperate with her when going out later, telling her parents that Alida would be guiding him for the day. With this "deceived" day of freedom, she could then truly go on a romantic date with Jacob...

"Really filled with that detestable smell of love..."

Ronan picked up the map of Seventh Ring City in his hand and pretended to sniff it, muttering to himself, before carelessly stuffing it into his waist storage bag.

...

At the counter, a beautiful witch clerk handed Ronan a small box filled with magic stones and said with a smile, "That will be two advanced magic stones, and forty-five intermediate magic stones, please count them."

Ronan glanced at the box, instantly counting the number of magic stones inside, and with no expression on his face, nodded and put the magic stones into his waist storage bag.

This was a beautifully decorated magic artifact store. Ronan came here primarily to sell the outdated apprentice gear that he had phased out, as well as a bunch of miscellaneous items like the surplus storage bags.

This was the third store Ronan had visited, and the one that offered the best price, yet the final amount was still somewhat short of his expectations.

Just from what he got from Linus alone, including four zero rank storage bags, the total value was worth more than three advanced magic stones.

However, upon reflection, it seemed normal that the prices of apprentice gear in Seventh Ring City’s silver district, which was a Great Wizard’s land with magic artifact stores and rune stores covering the streets, would be a bit cheaper than in Hoddam.

"Do you need to see anything else, sir?"

After serving Ronan, a middle-aged man who seemed to be the store manager signaled the beautiful witch clerk to step aside and then approached Ronan with a smile.

Ronan glanced around the store, thought for a moment, then asked, "Do you have any weapons?"

After being promoted to official wizard, Ronan needed to replace all his gear, starting with the most important: weapons.

Initially, he thought the middle-aged man, also a level 1 wizard, would take him to a corner filled with all sorts of beautiful magic wands for a look and introduction. However, the man paused for a moment, then said, "Our workshop has the most comprehensive First Rank magic wands in Seventh Ring City, but sir, you must have just been promoted recently.

If you don’t mind, could you inform me of the type of soul seal you plan to refine and the main attribute of the spells you specialize in, so I can make appropriate magic wand recommendations..."

Ronan’s eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this, "You can tell I haven’t refined a soul seal yet?"

"Of course."

The middle-aged wizard nodded as if it were a matter of course and said, "The aura of your soul is so clean it’s like a blank sheet of paper, only a wizard who has not refined any seal would possess such a soul trait..."

"Uh..."

Ronan was taken aback and only after asking did he learn that an official wizard’s aura would change after refining a soul seal.

Affected by the seal, it would show a mysterious and obscure scent.

And the more complex and advanced the refined seals, the deeper this sense of mysterious complexity.

This factor is also usually used by wizards to initially judge the strength of an official wizard.

Since spiritual power fluctuations can be hidden, it is difficult to conceal the aura of the soul.

And the soul seal is the core of each wizard’s magic attributes. The more complex and advanced the refined seals, the more powerful the combat capability naturally is.

This is common knowledge in the Official Wizard Circle, which Ronan has only just become aware of.

After listening to the middle-aged wizard store owner’s explanation, Ronan had a moment of realization.

No wonder he always felt that every official wizard he encountered along the way seemed more powerful than him; he thought it was because he had just been promoted and his spiritual power hadn’t increased.

It turns out that the main reason was that he hadn’t refined a soul seal.

Ronan’s "innocence" did not lead to any change in the middle-aged wizard’s attitude, who, as an owner, was of good quality, always polite, and patient.

"Do you have any melee weapons?"

Understanding the situation, Ronan asked anew.
