Instantly, America felt as though she was covered by a tall shadow.
Opposite her, the mages who had originally rushed toward her in anger all took a step back together.
It was as if a ferocious beast was standing right behind her at this moment!
"You did a very good job this time, your abilities have improved, and your courage is also very commendable. I can give you an A+ for this performance, America~"
The familiar voice coming from behind made America, who was barely holding herself up from falling, instantly relax, and her legs went soft, almost causing her to fall to the ground.
However, a strong arm supported her from behind, ensuring that even though she lost all her strength, she still did not fall to the ground.
America leaned against Ryan, instantly feeling full of a sense of security: "Weren't you outside dealing with those mages? How did you enter that library where only mages can enter?"
"I can walk through walls, do I have to tell you that too?" Ryan smiled slightly.
"Walk through walls? Just how many abilities do you have that I don't know about?" America was somewhat dumbfounded.
Ryan shook his head: "Not to mention you, even I don't know how many abilities I specifically have. Maybe after I sleep, I'll awaken new abilities the next day~"
"Alright, let's talk about idle chat after we get home. I have already gotten the books on Space Magic, we should go."
"But I seemed to have killed an innocent mage just now!" Hearing this, America had a very guilty look on her face.
Hearing this, Ryan glanced at the mage lying on the ground, and said indifferently: "Rest assured, his heartbeat is still very strong right now. He's not dead, just passed out, let's go."
"Great!" Hearing this, America instantly felt relieved.
Just like that, Ryan brought America and walked past the crowd of mages as if no one else was there, and until they left Kamar-Taj again through the fixed portal, not a single mage went forward to stop them.
Seeing Ryan pass by, all the mages couldn't hide fast enough.
One by one, they pressed against the walls, playing wooden dummies, not daring to look directly at Ryan and America.
Fearing that they would become the second Mordo.
After all, even their strongest Sorcerer Supreme was beaten into that state, so they didn't even need to think—they definitely couldn't beat him...
Most importantly, Ryan wasn't a real bad guy, and they were only paid a few hundred bucks a month, why risk their lives like this...
The night passed without incident...
"Ryan, get up. Don't you have classes in the morning?"
At eight in the morning, America, with dark circles under her eyes, pushed awake Ryan who was sleeping on the sofa.
She had fought hard all night last night and didn't sleep a wink!
Of course, it was a proper fight, not an improper one.
Even if she were willing to have an improper one, Ryan didn't seem to have that kind of feeling toward her...
She had studied the Space Magic that Ryan brought back from Kamar-Taj for the entire night!
Ryan rubbed his eyes and woke up, glanced at America who looked a bit poorly, and asked: "Did you pull an all-nighter? How is your study progress?"
Hearing this, America reached out her hand and made a few circles in the air, and a few sparks flickered in the air in front of her.
But that was all. Only tiny sparks flashed, and no true portal was formed.
Even these sparks only lasted for two seconds before they went out.
"You practiced for a whole night, and just this?" Ryan's mouth twitched speechlessly.
"You still have the nerve to say that!" America put her hands on her hips in dissatisfaction, "The basic portal book called 'Doors of Mystic Arts' you gave me clearly stated on the first page that it requires a magical artifact called a 'Sling Ring' to be used together in order to cast it. You only brought back the book yesterday without the ring, how do you expect me to practice..."
Hearing this, Ryan smiled disdainfully: "That's for ordinary people, who need a Sling Ring to assist in connecting space, but you yourself are a space-type ability user, logically speaking you don't need any Sling Ring at all!"
"Using a Sling Ring to master Space Magic will only make you rely on external objects, just like that guy with a hammer!"
Hearing this, America was on the verge of tears: "But although I am a space ability user, I haven't mastered my own abilities yet. How can I quickly master Space Magic without using external objects..."
"Who told you that if you haven't mastered space abilities, there's no way to quickly master Space Magic?" Ryan shook his head, stood up from the sofa, "Watch closely, little brat, what I'm going to do next will be very cool!"
America rubbed the goosebumps on her arms, looking disgusted: "Ew, your lines are so cheesy..."
Ryan: ...
Snap!
"Just watch properly when I tell you to watch, stop running your mouth!"
Like a hot dog vendor, Ryan flicked his finger against America's forehead.
"Ouch!"
Amidst America's cry of pain, Ryan extended a finger and drew a circle in the air.
Then the magical thing happened.
As tiny blue sparks emerged, soon a circular rotating portal glowing with blue light appeared before the two of them.
This left America dumbfounded: "Th-This is impossible. Didn't you just accompany me to look at this magic book for two glances yesterday before falling asleep? How did you learn it?"
Ryan patted America's head and laughed: "The reason I went to sleep after looking at it for two glances is because I had already learned it after two glances, not because I get dizzy from books. This is probably the difference between a top student and an underachiever!"
At this, America was rendered completely speechless.
Because Ryan's talent was truly unprecedented to her, and undeniable.
But immediately after, America became puzzled again: "But why is your portal blue? I saw in the introduction to this magic in the book 'Doors of Mystic Arts', the portals are all gold to deep orange. The color gradually deepens as one becomes familiar with this magic, and I've never seen a blue portal appear?"
To this, Ryan couldn't give an explanation either: "How would I know? I'm not a mage. Maybe the mages who used this teleportation magic in the past just never had someone as awesome as me~"
"That sounds reasonable!" America nodded seriously.
At least among all the people she had ever met, Ryan was indeed the most powerful, the one who gave her the most sense of security, and the most talented person she had ever seen!
Therefore, on Ryan, nothing was impossible!
"Alright, let's go to school first. If I'm late, I'll have to skip class again."
"Ah? I have to go to school too? But I'm not a student, and I just pulled an all-nighter. Can't I stay home and sleep?"
America pulled a wry face.
Ryan smiled slightly: "Sure, if you don't mind a dark creature suddenly appearing and gouging out your heart while you're sleeping..."
Hearing this, America shuddered and immediately stood up: "I suddenly feel that going to class with you is also quite good. How could someone at my age be able to sleep? I should go to school to study, right!"
