Chapter 272: Mage's House (Third Update)

"Sir, I have been practicing Taoist arts since I was young. Although I can't claim to be an expert, I do know most of the basics. If you don't mind, I would like to exchange knowledge with you."

After saying this, Xiao Lang Li's face turned slightly red.

Using the word "exchange" seemed a bit too presumptuous for him.

Jerry feigned surprise for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Of course, I have always believed that whether it's Magic or Taoist arts, more exchanges are necessary. In this era, Mages and Taoists are becoming fewer because there is less communication among us.

So I never hesitate to share the knowledge I have learned with like-minded people. I have ten thousand grimoires, and if Xiao Lang is willing, you are welcome to come and study them."

"Brother Jerry even gave me a grimoire about Household Magic!"

At this moment, Sakura raised her hand to confirm Jerry's words.

"I never expected him to be such a generous person!"

Xiao Lang Li had just been thinking about only sharing some basic Taoist knowledge. Hearing Jerry's words, he felt a bit ashamed. The other party was willing to share everything, while he still had reservations.

"Then when shall we start?"

Xiao Lang Li had now decided to set aside those rigid rules and genuinely exchange and learn together, aiming for mutual progress.

"Let's do this: after school or on weekends, whenever you have time, you can come to me. I'm mostly at home studying the Clow Cards these days."

Jerry then turned to Sakura and said:

"Sakura, I think if you have time, you could also come with Tomoyo to learn some Magic alongside Xiao Lang. As a Mage, you shouldn't rely solely on the Clow Cards!"

Tricking a ten-year-old child isn't a very honorable thing to do, but in reality, what Jerry was doing was more of a favor. For Xiao Lang Li, this was an incredible opportunity.

Jerry was proficient in three major systems of Magic, most of which were not from this world. Even if Xiao Lang Li only learned a small part of it, combining it with his Taoist arts and the Magic of the Clow Cards, he could potentially surpass Clow Reed if he had enough talent.

"Ah, okay!"

Sakura, unlike Xiao Lang Li, was interested in Magic but not as passionate. However, seeing Kero's bright eyes, she agreed.

Learning more Magic wouldn't be bad, at least it would make collecting the Clow Cards easier.

"Alright, let's call it a day. It's getting late, and you should get some sleep. You have classes tomorrow!"

Having achieved his goal, Jerry checked the time—it was midnight—and waved his hand to turn the pavilion back into a penguin slide, while also lifting the Muggle Repelling Charm.

"See you tomorrow!"

Xiao Lang Li said to Jerry, then turned to Sakura and nodded, saying:

"From now on, you'll be responsible for collecting the Clow Cards. I have a greater goal!"

With that, he leaped a few times and disappeared into the night.

"Why does something so good sound so annoying when he says it!"

Sakura stuck her tongue out in the direction Xiao Lang Li had left.

Tomoyo covered her mouth and glanced at Jerry, smiling:

"It's not bad. At least he won't be competing with you for the Clow Cards anymore. Brother Jerry is so clever."

If there was anyone among them who remained somewhat clear-headed after Jerry's story, it was probably Tomoyo.

However, she could sense that Jerry had no ill intentions, and Sakura was also a beneficiary of this arrangement, so she didn't reveal anything.

The next day, in the afternoon.

Xiao Lang Li, Sakura, Tomoyo, and Kero, following last night's agreement, arrived at the address Jerry had given them.

Yuki Branch Elementary School usually dismissed at around three, so when they reached Jerry's house, it was not yet four o'clock.

"Wow, Brother Jerry's house is so close to ours!"

Sakura looked at her house across the street, her face full of surprise. No wonder she had encountered him every morning on the way to school.

"Great, when we're done, Sakura can just cross the street to go home."

Tomoyo smiled and took out her camera.

How could she not document Sakura's first day of learning Magic properly?

Xiao Lang Li ignored the two who seemed to be on a spring outing and took a deep breath, preparing to press the doorbell.

"Welcome, welcome!"

However, before the doorbell even rang, Jerry, who had already sensed their arrival, opened the door with a smile.

"Wow~ So big!!!"

"Beautiful!"

The three of them and Kero were stunned by the scene inside as soon as they walked in.

The house, which looked to be only about 1,000 square feet from the outside, was actually as large as three or four soccer fields inside. It felt like they had entered another world rather than just a house.

There was a Magic training ground with various targets, a huge blackboard, an octagonal pavilion, an enormous bookshelf filled with grimoires, and beautiful flowers and trees decorating the surroundings.

"Since we'll be learning and discussing Magic and Taoist arts here from now on, I made a few small renovations to the living room yesterday!"

Jerry led the group to the octagonal pavilion in the Magic training ground and explained with a smile.

Renovating the living room was simple for Jerry. He used the Undetectable Extension Charm to expand the space, then used a Transfiguration Spell to create the blackboard and pavilion. The Duplication Spell copied the grimoires, and he added some soil, planted seeds, and released a combination of rain and tree Growth Magic.

The entire renovation took less than ten minutes.

"These are some of the Taoist texts that I had Wenbo organize, which I brought over. I've already contacted my family, and they will send over a large batch of Taoist texts in a while."

Xiao Lang Li opened his backpack and took out over a dozen ancient Taoist cultivation manuals.

Wenbo, his butler who took care of his daily life, had found these texts as soon as he returned home yesterday and contacted his family to send all the books related to Taoist arts.

He had thought this would help bridge the gap between them, but now, seeing the countless thousands of grimoires on the nearby bookshelf, he knew his plan had fallen short.

The Li family, one of the strongest Taoist families in China, possessed a significant number of Taoist texts, but even when combined, they amounted to no more than a thousand at most.

Jerry's grimoires, on the other hand, encompassed the majority of Magic systems from three worlds, so the quantity naturally couldn't compare.

This was even after he had removed a portion of the texts about Dark Magic and those unsuitable for a few children to study. Otherwise, the number of grimoires would have doubled.

Of course, most of these grimoires were about the theory of Magic and techniques, not all of them were spellbooks.
