My Muscle System in the Mage World

Just like that, a day has passed. However, this time, as Aur was slowly resting his body, he heard a voice. Read exclusive adventures at empire

"Master, that innkeeper Lee has arrived again, and with a young man in armor as well." Rowena said from the outside door.

"Is that the city lord?" Aur frowned with a thoughtful expression.

"Tell Hazel to say that, wait until you come out."

"Yes, master." Rowena said respectfully, and Hazel immediately left the door.

"You can come in now." Aur said lightly.

Rowena immediately came from the door and bowed her head.

"What do you need, master?"

Aur glanced at her tempting curvaceous body and shook his head.

"Tell me all about this city. Do you know it?" He had seen numerous beauties in both of his lives, but that didn't mean he would linger on them.

Strength was all he cared about. No matter how tempting and how beautiful they are, with wonderful temperament, they still bleed the red blood, and when you take away the external skin, all that is left is an ugly part of the body.

Beauty is a flower that will wither away with time, and all people will be turned to dust. So what's the matter with being high and mighty?

Except for his family, he cared about nothing, and these have been stripped away from his life, leaving him hollow. His final wish of immortality was all he wanted to achieve, but that didn't mean he was derived from human emotion and became a machine.

He was still a human at heart, and all the seven desires were still there, just that all the desires of his were being manipulated according to his will for his sole goal.

As for being lonely and empty after reaching the goal? Aur would only sneer at it.

If it was so easy to reach the place, with trillions or even more people trying for it, but all turned to dust, how could it be so easy to reach it?

Whether it was possible or not was still a question, and only when he truly reached immortality, gaining omniscience and omnipotence, at that time it would not be too late for him to find some partners and enjoy life.

But till then, his eyes became cold.

Soon, Rowena, with a trembling body, started to introduce the entire city.

"You can sit on the bed now while I stand up and remember to properly act when meeting the city lord." Aur patted the bed beside him and stood aside.

"Yes, master." Rowena sat down on the bed while bowing her head. There was a trace of resentment flickering in her eyes, which quickly disappeared.

Aur looked amusingly at her. Even a tier six spell was not perfect. He didn't have complete control over them, most likely due to the spell not being in his mental space. But even so, the power that could control them would last longer. But if he ordered them to commit suicide or other things, their instinct and the will of the soul might overcome it or go crazy and die trying it.

Never underestimate a creature's instinct to protect its life.

Very soon, the shopkeeper Lee arrived with a young man in armor.

The moment the young man saw Rowena, he immediately put on a fawning smile and welcomed her.

"How did Miss Rowena come to our humble establishment?" the young man politely smiled.

"I don't dare to accept the politeness of a lord." Rowena politely bowed her head.

The city lord just smiled, "So what brings you to my humble establishment?"

"As you can see, we were attacked during the road, and the assassins were quite trained as well. If not for my escorts, I would have died." Rowena spoke lightly with a tone of grief.

"I see." The city lord raised his brows in surprise and didn't ask any further. He just conveyed some consoling words and promised to punish those villains if he ever finds them. Of course, it was just some verbal nonsense. While saying these, he looked around the room and spotted something that made him nod his head in understanding.

"If you have any problems, you should contact Miss Rowena through my son. If you need anything from me, I will be going."

He clapped his hand.

"You are leaving so soon?" Rowena asked coldly.

"I am really sorry for Miss Rowena, but we have a competition that is going on soon, and for that, my workload has doubled, and the other three forces are also participating in it." The city lord smiled bitterly.

"I see." Rowena nodded her head.

And the city lord hurriedly left the place.

"Hmm, competition?" Aur narrowed his eyes.

During the short conversation between the city lord and Rowena, not once has he looked at Aur. Of course, this was even better for him because he didn't want to try to draw too much attention at the moment.

From Rowena's explanation, this city was called the Soul city.

This city was way stronger than Aur's village, not only because it was a city much larger than his tiny village with numerous tier three wizards, it was also named a city, even stronger than ordinary cities.

To become a named city in the Roshar kingdom, there needs to be at least two tier four wizards sitting in the city. This city had not two, not three, but five tier four wizards, and they were from different factions.

The city lord faction had two tier four wizards, and the other three factions were called the Iron Fist, Tomahawk, and the Blood faction.

The most important resource of this city was actually at the center of this city, where the land was extremely fertile, and extremely precious soul dust could be cultivated in it.

Soul Dust was an extremely magical ingredient which could increase the spirituality of the potion.

The purer the potion, the more benefits a wizard can gain. When the potion's spirituality is extremely high and condenses, then they could even gain additional effects.
