A library that turned people into ghosts...
Mu You had some idea how this Silent Madam had died.
[After answering your questions, Silent Madam picked up the book from earlier and began reading, indicating that you could look around and consult her cat if you needed anything.]
Mu You was in no hurry to leave. Though deserted, the shop was a proper bookstore, after all. He browsed the shop, but unfortunately, most of its books covered popular science, autobiographies, magical history, geography, and literature. There were no particularly valuable books for sale. It would be fine to come occasionally to look things up, but buying them was not worthwhile.
In the end, however, Mu You did buy something.
[Automatic Wayfinding Letter: A letter with paper wings. Write a sufficiently specific name or identity on the envelope, and it will automatically fly to the target's location to deliver the letter. Only works for targets within the same city who have registered a magical mailbox. Single-use item. Price: 1 year of lifespan.]
One year of lifespan-that worked out to over eight thousand yuan for a single envelope!
Mu You clicked his tongue. That was expensive.
No wonder most Wizards kept owls on hand. An owl was essentially an unlimited-use wayfinding letter that could also deliver mail between cities, completely outclassing it in practicality.
But he had no choice. Mu You currently had no owl available, nor had he registered an identity in the city. He could only make do with this luxury item for now.
[You paid the Cat Sì 1 year of lifespan.] [You obtained 'Automatic Wayfinding Letter ×1.']
With the purchase complete, Mu You tapped the wayfinding letter to inspect it. It was an ordinary white envelope, with a paper wing on either side
