I'll make an out of left field suggestion and offer up Latin or Ancient Greek if you're open to a written language only option. Obviously they are completely useless for any purpose other than being a Catholic or Orthodox priest, but are interesting if you're into linguistics and seeing how English came about. Any of Spanish/French/German/Italian should be very easy for you to learn, so maybe you are interested in something a little trickier (that's still easier than Ancient Chinese!).

Of the two, Latin has more straightforward vocabulary and a more annoying grammar, Ancient Greek is very varied depending on the time frame and uses syntax in a very loose way and is more hipster (they're both widely used for technical words of course, most fields leaning more towards Greek but a few are all Latin, and there's a lot of mixed origin words everywhere).
