Chapter 4 Friends?

The Exchange House is a very important department of the Magic Guild.

Members of the guild will collect some useful materials when they are out on their adventures, but not all of them are useful to them. So magicians can turn in materials that are not useful to them to the Exchange House in exchange for points.

A certain amount of points can be exchanged for items of corresponding value, which means you can completely exchange some waste for higher value items.

Usually, the Exchange House was the most popular place in the Magic Guild. But today, because of the chairman's personal rating, the place was unusually cold and quiet. That's good anyway, right. It saved Rollin from getting into trouble again. The

keeper of the Exchange House is an old mage, and it is said that he had deep attainments in magic when he was young. But because of old age his magic power is depleted, now he is simply sitting here to drink tea.

For such a person with achievements finally reduced to looking after the counter, Rollin also felt a little uncomfortable, but he did not have extra sympathy left for others.

"Hello, old man."

Rollin greeted the old man with the most basic of manners, at the same time the other party glanced at Rollin, then changed into a smile and said, "Isn't Rollin? Do you come here to sell herbs again today?"

The old man was still relatively familiar with Rollin which simply reached the level of a relatively familiar degree, just because Rollin often came here.

Luo Li basically stays at home to study magic, so where does he get his income from? He barely scrapes by on the points he comes here to redeem for a few silver.

Rollin's residence is relatively remote and desolate, so there are some herbs with magic research value around. Due to the location and the benefits,Rollin has relied on selling herbs to get by.

It is also because of his frequent visits to sell herbs, Rollin was mocked as a "herbal beggar" by some younger magicians from time to time.

"No, I'm not here to sell herbs today. Today I want to exchange something."

Rollin said concisely while the old man's eyes scanned up and down on Rollin's body, his seemingly cloudy eyes unexpectedly shining with light.

"By the way, you're already a magical apprentice."

"I am just a magical apprentice, that’s all."

Rollin’s smiled awkwardly for the title of apprentice magic is enough to make people shame into staying at home , but Rollin still dares to go out. It shows how thick his skin is.

"But at least you’re a magician, unfortunately, I thought that with your talent, the president would make an exception to let you become a senior magician."

Rollin laughed but did not say anything, and the old man saw this and said no more.

"So what do you want?"

"I want to see how many points I've accumulated now."

The old man nodded upon hearing this, then he flipped through the records in his book and then replied, "There are already more than a thousand points."

One thousand points now?

Rollin nodded because this was basically the same as what he remembered.

One thousand points was enough to exchange for one magic crystal of the first level. If you want magic crystal of the second level, you will need three thousand points. Although magic crystal of the second level is better, according to Rollin's current situation he can only retreat to the lower level without any choice.

"In that case, then please exchange me for a magic crystal of the first grade."

"Hmm."

The old man nodded as he got up and slowly fumbled around in the counter behind him before taking out an object wrapped in cloth.

The cloth still had blood stains on it and gave off a strong smell. And Rollin frowned slightly.

"Oh, this is what I specially left for you, it's a magic crystal that someone just dug up today, the magic crystal of the first class magical beast, the Wind Sparrow, still hot."

The old man grinned, his teeth were missing several of them.

"How did you know that I wanted the magic crystals?"

"How did I not know? We've known each other for a few years at least."

Old demon.

Rollin muttered in his heart, but didn't think too much about it. He took the magic crystal handed to him by the old man and felt it. It was indeed still hot.

That was really excellent, because the magic crystal that had just been dug out worked best, and that was what Rollin wanted the most. If not for the fact that Rollin could not do magic, otherwise he would have to kill a magic beast himself and dig a magic crystal back.

Thank you very much.

It is Rollin's heartfelt gratitude. Although he and the old man did not have many encounters, the previous words were basically "What integral is this worth", "How many more points", the other party's behavior let Rollin feel unprecedented warmth.

However, this warmth is Rollin does not need. So Rollin did not say anything grateful out loud, just silently repeated it in his heart instead.

This time the purpose was achieved.

A stone fell from Rollin's heart, just right he was about to put the magic crystal into his pocket. At this moment the magic crystal in his hand was suddenly touched by the hand reaching out from the side.

"What the hell!"

Rollin was a little annoyed. Although he was already used to being bullied on a regular basis, it was too much to grab something from his hands so blatantly.

Just see a teenager with blonded hair playfully playing with the magic crystal that Rollin had just exchanged, he playfully looked at Rollin: "Rollin, I really don't understand what you're doing by exchanging this stuff. What’s the use of a magic waste of you holding a magic crystal?"

"Karl..."

Rollin narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes contained a hint of chill.

Karl, once an intimate friend of Rollin, was only once his friend. Because Karl betrayed him, from then on the two of them went their separate ways.

"It's none of your business, give me back the magic crystal."

Rollin unceremoniously extended his hand to Karl and made a demanding gesture. In a moment, Karl's face faintly stiffened.

Is Rollin out of his mind?

In the past Rollin would never have dared to speak to him so arrogantly, because Rollin was a cowardly and flabby guy!

"Do you know who you're talking to? You are a mere magical apprentice"

Karl pointed his thumb at his cloak, yellow, a proof of an intermediate level magician (4th level magician)!

Today, Karl also received the personal evaluation from the President of the Magic Guild , and his rank was upgraded from low level magician to intermediate magician. Without any hesitation, he was definitely very proud of himself at the moment. He met Rollin on the way and wanted to show off to him, but he didn't expect that weak and mediocre Rollin looked at him with that kind of disdainful eyesight!

Karl was very unpleasant, rather annoyed. He never thought that the previous slaughter of Rollin at this moment actually want to climb to his head ."Oh, so what? The intermediate magician is going to rob magic crystal of the first grade from a poor magical apprentice?"

Rollin hummed and teased with playful laugh.

Karl's face didn't look too good, as an intermediate level magician, after all he did have some bad manners when he shot at the apprentice magician. But he really wanted to kill him with a "Whirlwind Palm".

"Karl? What are you doing? What are you doing?" When the volcano in Karl's heart was about to erupt, suddenly a mesmerizing voice caught Karl's attention.

"Karl, Rollin, what are you doing here?"

The person who came was Felina, the beautiful girl who was considered a goddess by everyone in the academy, with bright blonde hair, decent features, and especially the dazzling blue cloak behind her.

The moment he saw Felina, Karl's heart began to swell, he felt uncomfortable, his heart seemed to have a strange emotion about to burst out.
