What he did not know was that although Jack had not known how to use magical power previously, he had cultivated the martial arts skill passed down from the ancestors of the Nicholas family clan, namely Tai Chi. When he was in danger earlier, he instinctively used it, and it was actually very useful. When he heard the other party’s words, the three people immediately surrounded Jack. Jack immediately stretched out his hand and condensed a water bullet, which he hurled at the three of them. This was only level-1 magical power with limited attack power, but the other party was only an ordinary person. One of them was sent flying by a water bullet. Jack immediately followed up with some more water bullets, and the three of them were all sent flying. The guy who had clamored to give Jack a beating just now, saw that Jack was actually so powerful and even knew magical power, he instantly regretted it. If he had known that the other party knew magical power, he definitely would not have come. He turned around and was about to run, but Jack would not let him escape. Jack struck him with a water bullet and he instantly collapsed to the ground.
In fact, Jack really did not know magical power previously. It was not that the Nicholas family clan did not want him to learn it, but that the previous bronze-tier meditation technique was too lousy and his aptitude was not good. Therefore, even if he had cultivated it, he would not have been able to cultivate magical power. He could not even sense magical power, so how could there even be magical power?
However, Romo had subsequently given them many high-tier cultivation techniques, especially the Wave Meditation Technique. Jack tried to meditate for a while and actually managed to condense a magic rune. He had also successfully advanced to become a level-1 Mage. Although he was only level-1, if he encountered a little gangster in Winterfrost, he would be able to easily beat him and flee.
“What are all of you doing?”
At this moment, a voice suddenly shouted. Jack looked in the direction of the voice and saw several patrol officers running over. They had heard the sounds of fighting and screams, so they ran over to take a look. In the end, they saw some people fighting, and so they shouted loudly. When they ran closer, they saw it was someone familiar. That patrol officer immediately said to Jack, “So, it’s Mr. Jack. What’s going on?”
Jack also knew the other party. After all, he often did business and had met him frequently. He had even invited him for drinks often so that he could get the other party to protect him when he was doing business, in case a little gangster caused trouble.
“It’s Patrol Officer Charlie. These few gangsters wanted to sneak up on me. They were even holding sticks and sacks and ropes. They were trying to kidnap me, but I had struck them down. Hurry up and arrest them,” Jack quickly related to him what had happened. Hearing this, Patrol Officer Charlie looked at the little gangsters. He knew these fellows and often chastised them, but they had always been unrepentant. This time, they had even wanted to kidnap someone? They were simply courting death.
“Alright, Mr. Jack. I’ll definitely lock them up in jail,” said Patrol Officer Charlie. In the past, he had always treated Jack with an air of superiority because, firstly, Jack was not valued by the Nicholas family clan, and secondly, the Nicholas family clan was in dire straits. They were not as glorious as they were now. But, this could not happen now. Everyone knew that the Nicholas family clan had risen up, and even the City Lord had to go and support the little master when he turned one-month old. As a mere patrol officer, how could he dare to look down on the other party’s family clan? And now, even this live-in son-in-law, Jack, had become rich and had even mastered the most profitable business in Winterfrost, soap.
“Sorry to have troubled you, Patrol Officer Charlie. Consider this money as compensation for your hard work.” Jack took out a gold coin and handed it to Patrol Officer Charlie, and then he left. Looking at the other party’s receding figure, Patrol Officer Charlie sighed a little. Now, the other party had really become rich and could even use magical power.
When Jack arrived at the restaurant, he soon met the person whom he was to discuss business with. This was a little fat man with silver hair, who was in his early twenties. He was about the same age as Jack and had a smiley face. He was an amiable person to deal with.
This was Ricky who had come from Cold Ice City. Jack had a very agreeable conversation with him. As the soap business was completely in the control of the Nicholas family clan, and the other party was also very sincere, the two sides quickly came to an agreement. He could sign the contract after this, and thereafter, their soap would be sold in Cold Ice City.
After the conversation, the Young Master Ricky wanted to drag Jack away for a drink. “Haha, I have already arrived in Winterfrost last night. Do you know why I came earlier? It was because I had long heard about the Spring Hotel in your city, and that the maid servants there were even more coquettish than those in our Cold Ice City. I tried out yesterday, and it turned out that hearing about them was indeed inferior to meeting them in person. They were really coquettish, but you…”
This little fatty was drooling as he spoke, telling Jack vividly about his conquests yesterday. Jack did not know whether to laugh or cry. Sigh, what was all this? He had never been to such a place before. It was enough for him to have Sonia. As for the other women, especially those kinds of women, he would not even touch them.
However, little fatty Ricky insisted on dragging Jack there. He had no choice. After they had arrived, little fatty immediately put his arms around two ladies and went into a room with them. Then, Jack helped little fatty Ricky settle the bill and immediately turned around to leave. On the way back, he even bought a flower, which he could give to his wife, Sonia.
“Ta Ta Ta Ta ~ ~ ~” The sound of horse hooves could be heard.
“Watch out, get out of the way quickly!”
“Get out of the way!”
A series of voices could be heard. Upon hearing the voices, Jack looked up and saw a madly galloping horse which came running wildy. It was coming directly at him. He managed to dodge quickly, but the flower in his hand was knocked off, and the petals scattered on the ground.
Just as he was about to berate the other party, he took a look and saw that the person on the wildly running horse was wearing familiar clothing.
Isn’t that the uniform of the Sky Blue Magic Academy? Is that a student from the Sky Blue Magic Academy on the horse? The other party is a woman, and her back view seems a little familiar. Also, what’s the bright red color on the clothing? Blood?
Moreover, the woman had been slumped on the horse and seemed to be seriously injured. He immediately went after her. Fortunately, he had cultivated some martial arts, otherwise, he really would not have been able to catch up with that crazy horse which was running wildly. After he had caught up with it, he restrained the crazy horse and managed to make it stop. Just when it stopped, the woman on the horse’s back fell. Jack quickly caught her. This time, he immediately recognized the other party.. This person was actually Fiona, a student from the Sky Blue Magic Academy who had been to the Nicholas family previously.
