Saga of The Night God

93 Rock-star Magician

Erwin took a deep breath, hoping to break the awkward silence between him and Valara. He cleared his throat and asked, "So, what's it like working for the professor?"

Valara looked at him for a moment, and Erwin could feel his heart skip a beat. Her expression remained unchanged as she continued walking, her strides long and confident. Erwin felt like a small child trying to keep up with her, and he was failing miserably.

"She's a great teacher," Valara finally said in a monotone voice, devoid of any emotion.

Erwin nodded, trying to think of something else to say. "And what about the academy? It's so beautiful."

Valara's expression remained unchanged, but she finally spoke again. "It's one of the best magic academies in the world. You should feel honored to be here."

Erwin wasn't sure if she was being sarcastic or not, so he decided to drop the subject.

Erwin tried again, determined to keep the conversation going. "So, where are you taking me now?" he asked, looking up at Valara.

"To servant's quarters," Valara replied shortly, not bothering to elaborate. Erwin frowned. "Oh, okay. Um, do you live here too?"

Valara gave him a withering look. "No, I do not," she said, her voice cold.

Erwin tried to keep his inner thoughts to himself, but the sight of Valara's cold demeanor was starting to get to him. He couldn't help but think, 'Wow, she's colder than the ice magic department.'

Erwin decided to abandon his attempts at small talk, and they continued walking in silence until they reached the garden.

Erwin walked through the garden in awe, taking in the beautiful sights around him. The garden was alive with activity, with animals playing on the grass and students spending their leisure time enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Erwin spotted a group of students sitting under a tree, practicing spells and sharing stories. Another group was gathered near a fountain, laughing and joking around.

As they strolled through the garden, Erwin noticed a smaller statue of a man near one of the fountains. He pointed to it and asked Valara, "Who is he?"

The statue was only about 10 feet in length, much smaller than the grand statue of Lady Vasmorth that they had seen earlier.

Erwin's gaze was fixed on the statue as they approached it. The figure was carved out of a shiny, black material that seemed to absorb the sunlight, making it hard to discern the details. As they got closer, Erwin noticed that the man in the statue was dressed in ornate robes, and there were small stars embroidered on the fabric.

Erwin couldn't help but let out a chuckle. "Looks like he's a star in his own right," he joked, pointing to the stars on the statue's clothes.

Valara raised an eyebrow at Erwin's joke, but a small smile tugged at the corner of her lips. "That's Nereus Nox, the Supreme Artificer of Magic in the world at the time of the academy's founding. He was a friend of Lady Vasmorth and the one who designed and built many of the academy's buildings," she explained.

'He designed and built the academy's buildings? That's like being the Hogwarts architect and interior designer all rolled into one!' he mused.

Erwin nodded, impressed. "Wow, he must have been a real star in the magic world."

Valara gave him a small smile. "Yes, he was quite famous in his time."

Erwin couldn't help but feel a sense of awe as he looked up at the statue of Nereus Nox. He wondered what it would be like to be as famous and revered as him. But for now, he was content to just be a humble slave at the academy, fucking all the beauties it had to offer.

After continue for walking some time, they soon reached the servant's quarters. The buildings were simple, made of stone and wood, with thatched roofs and small windows. There were several buildings arranged in a small courtyard with a well in the center.

Erwin noticed several female servants coming in and out of the buildings, carrying baskets of laundry or pots of food. He also saw a few children playing nearby, their laughter filling the air.

Erwin frowned, noticing that there were no male servants around. "Why are there no men here?" he asked Valara.

Valara sighed, looking at Erwin with a sad expression. "The female servants here belong to some of the students and teachers who live at the academy. Their owners don't want any men near them, for fear of...unwanted advances. The children are here because their mothers work as servants some them are also servants." She explained.

Erwin looked around and saw nothing but beauties, beauties everywhere. 'This is a godsend opportunity for a man like me to make a harem.'

Valara led Erwin to a small building and unlocked the door. She held it open for him and gestured him to enter. "This is where you'll be staying for the time being," she said and continued. "you will be living here with another servant here."

Erwin stepped inside and looked around the room. It was simple yet cozy, with two beds, two dressers, and two small tables. The window on one wall provided a stunning view of the lush green garden outside.

After checking out his room, Erwin turned to Valara and asked, "When will the professor call me back?"

Valara shook her head and replied, "I don't know. It depends on her mood. But you should be free for this month because the students are on vacation and the professor only needs servants when she starts teaching classes again."

Erwin looked puzzled and asked, "Why?"

Valara shrugged and said, "I don't know."

"If you need anything, feel free to ask. I'll be in the assistant's quarters, which is just a short walk away from here," she added, before turning to leave.

"thanks for you help, miss Valara." Erwin thanked her as she left his room.

Erwin watched as Valara's big figure disappeared from view, feeling grateful for her help. He sighed and turned back to the room, taking a seat on the bed. It wasn't much, but it was a roof over his head for the time being.

He took a look around the room again, taking in the two beds, two dressers, and two tables. It was clear that he would be sharing the space with someone else, but he didn't know who that person was yet.

Erwin wondered when he would finally meet the other servant and what they would be like. He hoped that they would get along well, since they would be living in close quarters for the foreseeable future.

Erwin lay down on his bed and decided to check his upgraded system. He closed his eyes and focused his thoughts, and soon the familiar interface appeared before him.

[Welcome back, Host. How can I assist you?]

[System menu:-

"open status."

Erwin's eyes darted to the Host status section of the menu.

[Attribute point:- 10]

Erwin looked at his status with surprise because there were many new elements in it. "system why is did you change the system?"

[Host, your previous status was not well defined. As a result, I have updated your status to include more detailed information about your attributes, abilities, and social status.]

Erwin furrowed his brow and asked, "What does it mean to have a strength of 4? Does that mean I'm weak?"

[Host, a strength of 4 is considered below average in this game. However, your strength level can increase as you progress and gain experience.]"

Erwin nodded slowly, taking in the information. He then asked, "What can I do to improve my strength?"

[Host, there are several ways to improve your strength level. You can engage in physical activities, such as combat or training, or consume items or spells that boost your strength temporarily or permanently. Additionally, leveling up and allocating attribute points to strength can also increase your strength level.]

After taking some time to think, Erwin remembered something else he wanted to ask about the system. "System, is there any way for me to change my social status? I don't like being labeled as a slave."

[Host, there is a way to change your social status within the game. One possible way is to turn your master into your own slave. Another one is to gain the favor of a powerful and influential figure who can sponsor or assist you in obtaining a higher social status.]

Erwin muttered to himself, "Looks like this is going to take some time," as he focused his attention on his inventory. However, he noticed that the inventory was grayed out and his attempts to access it were unsuccessful.

"system why Can't I open my inventory?" Erwin asked, annoyed.

[Your current social status designates you as a slave, and thus, you are unable to access your inventory at this time. If you remain a slave for three months without changing your status, your character will perish.]

Erwin sat up in bed and rubbed his eyes, trying to shake off the feeling of despair that had settled over him. "There has to be another way," he muttered to himself.

He racked his brain, trying to think of a solution. Suddenly, an idea came to him. "I could try to find a powerful ally who could help me change my social status," he thought.
