Afternoon in Jiliu City

Sif asked,

"What goal?

"Powerful magic power?

"Or become the most powerful mage?

"Was this something very fascinating?

"Can't you like women just because you're chasing after these things?

"Were these things that couldn't be taken care of?

"Or are you actually a coward? You don't know what you want at all, and just keep running away."

Each of her questions was sharper than the last.

Matthew was unprecedentedly relaxed and calm.

He calmly replied,

"Yes, I can't take care of both.

" Perhaps some mages can still maintain the desire to study and work hard after having a partner, but I don't think I'm such a person.

" My focus and energy are quite limited. I only want to focus on the most important things.

" At least at this stage, there's no doubt about it."

Matthew was actually quite tactful.

In fact, most successful mages would not disperse their energy too early.
