Project: Mage - The Frugal Mage

Chapter 274: You are a dirty spider

"The image. Liu Yang, you need to know that in the eyes of the general public, the members of the great magician families are the strongest of all because of the influence and power they have within a country. This is common knowledge, you know that, right?" Kliri replied.

"Yea. Most common people think that the great clans of mages in China are the strongest in the country, but that is not exactly how it is. Many powerful mages are hiding in the country who do not like to appear." Liu Yang knew that there would always be someone stronger, even if that person did not belong to the great clans.

"Liu Yang, now, I want you to imagine the following situation. As an ordinary person, what would you think if a member of one of China's powerful and influential clans had not awakened his powers before the eleventh birthday?" Kliri profoundly asked a question. She was looking at Liu Yang and waiting for his answer.

"As an ordinary person, I would think that these clans are also flawed like ordinary people. But for the most fanatical who think that the big clans are the best, they would think that this clan is not that big because one of its members was unable to awaken the magic" Liu Yang answered sincerely.

"So what would you think if a child who is a child or grandchild of someone very influential and powerful, but that child has failed to awaken his powers. What is your opinion about this?"

"Well ... I think this child would suffer some injustices in his entire life for not being able to use magic, and his parents and grandparents would suffer because of that" Liu Yang understood some things because he had already been through this, but his situation was a little different.

After awakening his powers and summoning Liu Xia, Liu Yang suffered a lot of intimidation because she was very beautiful and many boys liked her. But Liu Xia always preferred to stay with Liu Yang.

So it was normal for him to be bullied by the strongest boys because of her.

"Liu Yang, now, I'm going to ask you something else. What would an ordinary person think if a member of a powerful wizard clan had a trash member, a weak member who does not know how to use magic properly or is not concerned with that."

"Well ... I would just think that that person doesn't like to cultivate and prefers to be playing"

"Nice answer. So you should be able to connect the dots on the reason for the projects to create false magicians, right? " Kliri stopped looking at Liu Yang and focused her gaze on the television. She let him think about it.

(Is this serious ?? !!! All the powerful and influential families in the world do these cruel experiments with their members who have not awakened their powers? Wait ... I think the ordinary member or a branch does not need to go through this unless they are chosen as a guinea pig. The results of these experiments should be children who have some relationship with a very influential member within the family, such as that group of stupid students. Even if these children have limited powers and are weak, they will still be considered magicians in the eyes of the audience) Liu Yang managed to connect the clues on Kliri's questions.

(If a normal person without any magical powers can gain magical powers after the experiments. What would happen if a mage underwent these same experiments?) Liu Yang started to think about this possibility, but he couldn't find an answer.

The only thing he knows is that this was something possible and the result can be something scary.

"Liu Yang, you must be thinking about what could happen if a mage were to undergo these experiments, right?" Kliri commented.

It was not difficult for her to be able to read Liu Yang's thoughts, as she would also think about it if someone told her about it.

"Yea. Would a mage become more powerful after these experiments? Or will they completely lose the magic? " Liu Yang thought that there were only these two possibilities.

"It depends on the person. There are successful experiments, but there are many other flaws. In the case of failures, guinea pigs often die or are left with sequelae, but it is impossible to lose the magical power within their bodies because it is something that will always be with the person. The most that can happen is that the person loses his cultivation levels. Upon successful experiments, the mages will become stronger and have more support of magical energy, but there may also be other things like side effects. This is not something that I will comment on because you don't need to know that" Kliri explained about them and explained vaguely about it. She did not have to speak deeply because it was not very good for Liu Yang to know about it.

"I see ..." Liu Yang was thoughtful about the matter.

"Liu Yang, you don't have to worry about that. These things happen in all countries because it is necessary to find new methods to make a mage stronger, even if there are sacrifices along the way. This is like cultivation." Kliri tried to get Liu Yang to stop thinking about these things because it was not very good for him to know about it.

"..." Liu Yang didn't know what to say about that.

"Liu Yang, can you cook dinner? I'm hungry" Kliri changed the subject. She no longer wanted to comment on the previous subject.

"OK. I will cook one of your favorite foods "Liu Yang understood what she wanted to do.

"I'm glad to hear that." Kliri went to Liu Yang and kissed his lips passionately.

"I could get used to this treatment. Or maybe, in the future, I will be like my sister. I can give birth to a child of yours" She whispered in his ears before kissing him again.

"If I don't have any problems in the future. It can happen" Liu Yang commented. He played with her a little before going to the kitchen.

"Despite being an Emperor, you are really a dirty spider" Ellena commented. She heard what she whispered.

As an Emperor, Ellena had a great hearing.

"This is a normal thing to happen. I am one of his lovers, why should I hold on? Unlike you, who is sent by his lover to be used as a maid" Kliri replied. She didn't like the way Ellena spoke.

"..." Ellena didn't comment on those words. She didn't even want to be in the place, she only does it because it is a direct order from Raelin and that order cannot be refused.

It didn't take long for Liu Yang to finish preparing dinner.

The trio enjoyed the food before resting.

Liu Yang called his home to chat with his women and play with his daughter via video call.

After a few hours of conversation and play, Liu Yang went to bed with Kliri and Ellena.

At first, it was difficult because the two women did not like each other but after some punishment from Liu Yang. They stopped complaining and started to cooperate with him in bed.
