Leaving Aunt Alyssa's house, Lucian did not go to the market area immediately, but went home to get a wooden stick, and continued to exercise and practice basic swordsmanship in the open space.
Moreover, the better the physical exercise, the more likely it is to stimulate the blood power when you have the opportunity to prepare and refine the "Weeping Soul" magic potion in the future.
After an hour of exercise, Lucian went home to wipe his sweat before walking towards the market area.
After not coming to the market area for five whole days, Lucian felt that it was still very lively, with all kinds of accents, all kinds of appearances, and different kinds of humanoid creatures mixed together, full of vigorous and noisy life pulses.
Worried about possible retaliation from the Aaron gang, Lucian was very careful when walking, coupled with the vague sense of mental power, to ensure that he would not be easily followed, and even if the gang thugs were within five meters of him, they would be discovered.
On the contrary, Lucian noticed that when the Aaron gang haunted and collected fees, there were a lot fewer manpower, and they used to work in groups of two or three people, but now they are all working alone, which made Lucian a little confused: "Could it be that the Aaron gang decided to keep a low profile last time?"
This guess, even Lucian himself didn't believe it, but no matter what, Aaron's gangster's abnormal behavior still made Lucian decide to be careful, as soon as possible to learn most of the apprentice-level informal magic, although their destructive power and defense are not too strong, but the weird ingenuity, as long as it is used properly, Lucian thought that even if he encountered ten gangsters, he could calmly deal with them without long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows.
In the market area, Lucian walked for three hours before buying three spellcasting materials, this is because of the experience of being discovered by Aaron's gang last time, Lucian is more cautious, even if some materials are very common, but he can't use them in his current life, he won't buy them for the time being, and many of the materials in it can be collected in the wild, such as cypress vine fruit, red patterned rock powder, etc., so Lucian decided to find a time to go outside the city to collect them.
The three spellcasting materials Lucian bought are those that can repel insects and mosquitoes, and the "Moon of Fire" frequently uses sulfur, which can calm the mind and help sleep.
The most expensive is Night Star Grass, followed by Cryolite, and sulfur is the cheapest, totaling Lucian's silver nar and twenty copper phils, which is close to half of Lucian's net worth.
This has to make Lucian sigh: "Magic is so expensive!"
…………
Since "Acid Sputter" and "Frost Ray" are not as low-key as "Ring of Runaway", they will leave traces that are difficult to deal with, and during the day, Ad makes people come and go, and the environment is complicated, so Lucian does not dare to cast it in his cabin, and is ready to practice at night, like the witch, find a sewer entrance and practice deep in the sewer.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lucian arrived at Victor's house on time to continue the study he had delayed yesterday.
"Lucian, do you have a job now?" After an hour of study, after Renee, Colin, Annie and others left, Victor suddenly asked in a soft tone.
At this time, there were only four students left in the hall: Lot, Phyllis, Herodotus, and Lucian.
Lucian shook his head: "Mr. Victor, I lost my previous job and haven't found a new one yet."
After experiencing the speed of learning magic and spending money, Lucian had decided to go to the Copper Crown Tavern before evening to ask, if not, he would go to the administrative district tomorrow to take a look, and now, Victor asked about it without warning, which made Lucian faintly look forward to it.
"With your family conditions, even if I exempt you from tuition, studying from 2 pm to 6 pm every day may still have an impact on your life." Victor considered his tone, he had asked Colin and Renee before, knowing that a poor person like Lucian, if he wanted to survive, he had to work at least ten hours a day, although he didn't know where Lucian's previous tuition fees came from, but looking at his clothes, his life definitely hadn't improved much, "I just know that there is a relatively easy job, you only need to work four hours a day in the morning, and you can get ten silver nars a month, Lucian, are you willing to go?"
Victor not only made himself his real student and waived tuition fees, but also cared about his own life, facing this heart, Lucian was moved again, after he arrived, although he met Jackson and other villains, scum, but also met Uncle Joel, Aunt Alyssa, John, Mr. Victor and other good people: "I do, Mr. Victor."
"You agreed to the job without hearing what it was?" Victor said humorously, "The association's music library was originally managed by one person every morning and one afternoon, but I felt that there was only one person, and it was easy to make mistakes, so I suggested that the association add two, but I didn't expect the association to agree. Well, when you manage the library, you can try to read the introductory music books, so that when I teach you, you can understand it faster, and after you have a week of introductory learning, you can try to learn musical instruments."
In Victor's mind, because he didn't know what Lucian's talent was, he was going to let him learn musical instruments as soon as possible, become a musician as soon as possible, and become a musician when he became a musician, with a stable source of money.
Lucian was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that he had such a fate with the library, traveling through the library, carrying the library in his soul, and now he was going to become the administrator of the library, but soon, Lucian said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Victor."
This job, at first glance, is added by the Musicians Association to Victor's face, working four hours a day, you can earn ten silver nars a month, which is really a very good thing, you know, the original Lucian, from morning to night, exhausted, only three silver nars a month at most, and now he has directly jumped from the bottom poor to ordinary income commoners, which fully reflects the importance of relationships.
Victor clapped his hands: "It just so happens that I am going to take Lot, Phyllis, and Herodotus to the Society Concert Hall in the afternoon to practice playing with the orchestra.
When Mr. Victor went to clean up his messy paper with many inspirational melodies, Lot smiled and said to Lucian: "Meet me, I'm Lot, Lot? Griffith, Mr. Victor is a very good teacher and a very kind person, I hope you don't live up to his expectations."
Originally, Lucian was suddenly accepted as a student by Victor, and Lot had a kind of anger and dissatisfaction, as a member of the Griffith family, he actually had to study music with a poor man, a guy who didn't know anything and had no education, and also wanted to embark on the path of an elegant and sacred musician, which was really a humiliation to the dignity of the nobility.
However, from Mr. Victor's words, Lot heard that he wanted Lucian to become a musician, so this anger and dissatisfaction were let go, and it turned into a kind of aristocratic pride, releasing kindness to Lucian with a condescending attitude.
"Mr. Victor should be happy to see that his students can get along more harmoniously." Lot, who wanted to become a true disciple of Victor, thought so.
Lucian was not interested in what Lot thought, he had already chosen the path of magic, and there should not be much intersection with them in the future, so he replied politely: "I will, thank you for reminding me, Lot. Well, my name is Lucian? Evans."
"I'm Phyllis? Hayne." The red-haired girl Phyllis nodded to Lucian reserved and coldly, she didn't think that Lucian could achieve much in music, after all, he started too late, so he only regarded Lucian's becoming a music student as Mr. Victor's kind repayment, and didn't care.
If rumors of becoming friends with a poor man spread, it would be a big blow to her reputation, and even affect her marriage choice.
Herodotus, the boy who had always looked at Lucian unpleasantly, also followed Phyllis's example and greeted him politely and coldly.
…………
Musicians Association Hall.
Stepping on the thick, soft carpet, Lucian followed Victor to the reception desk, while Lot, Phyllis, and Herodotus were sent by Victor to practice in the fifth floor recital hall.
Elena, a beautiful girl with brown hair and blue eyes, bowed sweetly: "Good afternoon, Mr. Victor."
"Good afternoon, Elena, this is Lucian, a student who studied music with me, starting tomorrow, I will manage the library in the morning, you can sign the contract for him, and then hand it over to Mr. Hank." Victor introduced Lucian.
Elena nodded, took out a piece of paper that had been prepared a long time ago, with only simple words written on it, and handed it to Lucian: "Hello, Mr. Lucian, Lucian?! Is it you?!"
She felt that Lucian was familiar just now, and when she read the name at this time, she suddenly recalled it, her emerald-like eyes were wide open, and she couldn't believe that Lucian, a poor man at the bottom who had gone to the Musicians Association to carry garbage more than a week ago, was now a music student of musician Mr. Victor, "This world must be crazy!"
"Hello, Elena, it's nice to see you." Lucian took the contract, because the text was not proficient, he still needed to spell, he needed to look up the dictionary, and he looked up a few simple lines for several minutes, which made Elena gradually calm down, and looked at Lucian curiously and enthusiastically, "You can see that there is no problem, just sign or press your handprint at the back, and then give it to me, I didn't expect that when I see you again, your changes will be so big."
Victor on the side asked with a smile: "Elena, do you know Lucian?"
"Mr. Victor, you were also there at the time...... Elena hurriedly told the matter, and Lucian finished reading the contract and felt that there was no problem, so he picked up a quill and signed his name unskillfully.
After hearing this, Victor looked at Lucian: "No wonder I have always felt that you are very familiar, well, you have the will and action to work hard, and the Lord will definitely bless you to succeed."
"Hmm, what success? Victor, do you have all the music ready?" Suddenly, a voice with a faint sharp feeling sounded.
Lucian looked back and saw Wolf, the brown-haired musician he had seen last time, with his chin bent forward.
