Waking up after a not-so-ideal sleep, Shye yawned, groggily getting out of bed to wash his face and leave the darned place as soon as possible.
Subsequently, once he was done with his preparations, Shye swiftly headed towards the counter to check out, not daring to turn his head left or right for fear of seeing sothing inappropriate again.
Due to the unholy visions he saw at the bar's stage, Shye couldn't help but think about Shirley and their past loving experiences.
How delightful it would be if they could reside together!
Unfortunately, his dreams of having sexual intimacy with Shirley every day would have to remain a dream for the ti being.
Shaking his head to throw the pesky inappropriate thoughts out the window, Shye checked out of the strange inn.
He then headed towards a nearby restaurant to have a simple breakfast before heading towards the post office.
Perhaps Shirley has already sent a letter to him!
A quarter of an hour later, he finally arrived at a huge stone building.
It wasn't elegant, however, it was majestic.
Entering the post office with a hopeful smile, Shye looked around.
'Luckily, I ca early.' He mused, walking towards the end of the short line.
While waiting for his turn, Shye suddenly rembered that he currently had lots of money and it would be a sha to not use it to improve his overall strength.
The question is, how?
Wracking his brain to think of ways to improve himself the "normal" way, Shye looked lost in his thoughts.
Fortunately, just a few seconds later, a good one popped up in his mind.
'Hmm…maybe I can purchase lots of basic mage spells using silver coins along with spell mastery tonics and mana potions?' Shye pondered.
He wasn't satisfied with his current arsenal as a mage.
Shye knew that he could level up his skills by simply spamming its usage, hence, in theory, as long as he had lots of mana potions, he could swiftly level the new skills up to at least level three.
After that, he should have an easier ti grinding system points and guild contribution points.
'Alright then, let's try that!' Shye thought inwardly.
Shortly after he formulated a solid plan on how to improve as a mage, he was called by the staff mber manning the stone counter as it was already his turn.
"Hello sir, Do you have any valid IDs so we can check if sobody sent you a letter?" The staff mber asked with a slight smile on his face.
He hated his current job, however, he had no choice but to smile since he would be fired if he didn't.
Should that happen, his beloved wife and son would have nothing to eat.
"Hello, here's my adventurer license" Shye replied, reciprocating the staff mber's slight smile.
It was still morning so his recent innate crankiness is still easily controllable.
The staff mber worked masterfully, handing over his adventurer license along with two letters within one and a half minutes, widening the smile on Shye's face.
Feeling generous, Shye gave the staff mber a twenty silver coin tip, in turn making the staff mber thank him profusely.
The underpaid staff mber not only lacks proper compensation but also finds little ti to rest until his shift concludes.
Unbeknownst to Shye, his casual tip ant a great deal to the staff mber, enabling him to buy nurous essentials as well as so delicious snacks and decent-quality at.
Twenty silver coins was a small amount to Shye, yet, to the staff mber it was equivalent to a third of his inco for a month.
Truly a huge unexpected blessing.
As for the nice guy, Shye, he already left the post office.
Heading straight towards the largest mage shop in Balkrow City which also happened to be the shop Wendy was partnered with, Shye opened the contents of the first letter.
"Shye, my beloved, are you doing well? Make sure to eat and bathe properly alright? I successfully passed the Raven's Blade Nookbury Branch's rookie admission exam and placed fourth overall. As expected, there were quite a few annoying individuals in this branch and I believe it's the sa over there. I believe in you and I'm sure you'll easily work your way to the top.
I will do my best to do the sa so don't worry about . I hope we can see each other soon. If you sohow have the ti to visit , then you can look for in the Nookbury branch or at an inn called "The White Forge". Love, Shirley."
Reading his girlfriend's heartfelt letter, Shye couldn't help but slightly tear up.
'Ahh crap…I really want to see her right now….' Shye lanted. 'Well, probably not until I beco a ruby-ranked adventurer. I must do my best to shorten her waiting ti!'
After reading Shirley's letter, Shye gently opened the other one.
"Big Brother, I hope you're doing great. Please eat proper als and take regular baths. You stink sotis when you're too focused after all. You don't have to worry about , I'm doing well in the academy. However, sotis, it does feel a bit lonely rembering the fact that you're so far away. I'll do my best so we can live near each other as soon as possible.
I miss you, Big Brother. Love, Maia"
Once he was done, Shye wiped the tears welling on the corners of his eyes as it would be a bit embarrassing to cry in public.
Both letters were heartfelt so it was hard for him to hold his emotions back.
'We'll see each other again…For now, I shall focus!' he thought, a resolute glint appearing in his eyes.
Due to the energy build-up brought about by his raging emotions, Shye started sprinting towards the Gold Wing Spellcaster Shop, causing lots of heads to turn his way as he kicked up small clouds of dust and stirred up small gusts of wind.
He was a bit excited now as he wanted to surprise not only Shirley and Maia but also his friends.
'Heh, I wonder how David and Harry would react once they learn of my subclass and how strong of a mage I am?'
