Night Raven Master

Chapter 13 The Road of the Wizard full of thorns

Day two.

Earl's Castle, in the study.

Warm sunlight fell from the sky and fell into the castle through the windows.

The vines climbing into the castle, under the sunlight, showed a feeling of emerald green and crystal clear.

"Art, what do you think a wizard is?" the count asked Art, standing in front of the window sill.

On the side, Alti watched this scene with interest. On the day when she was less than ten years old, when she awakened her psychic power, she was also asked this question.

"Wizard." Art rummaged through the memory of his previous life, and gathered all the impressions he got from the unclear memory.
At the same time, he also added his opinion as a player who has experienced various games in the era of technology: "Wizards are nobles, inheriting noble blue blood, are spellcasters, master mysterious extraordinary existences, are strong, possess The ability to make rules is the researcher who can explore the real secrets of the world."

The count looked at the young man with some surprise. His answer was within his expectations, but also beyond his expectations: "How should I put it? It's an interesting answer."

After thinking about it, he couldn't find what words to use to organize a paragraph.

Looking at his daughter with a surprised face, he also shook his head: "Wizards are nobles, there is nothing wrong with that, but nobles are not wizards. Wizards get the seeds of spellcasting because of blue blood. We gain power through research and learning. To explore the mysteries of the world, but not to gain power for the purpose of exploring the world, only with power can we formulate rules."

Arthur nodded in understanding.

"In the eyes of others, in the long past, we wizards won freedom from powerful monsters through study and research, and then we took away their power and transformed it into our own power. This is the power of other people. The origin of the blue blood in his eyes." Earl Fast recalled the knowledge taught to him by his guide, "We ended the rule of monsters and gained our own free existence. The blue blood, through the power of magic, defeated defeated monsters, and established the first city-state, the first kingdom of mankind."

"After human beings completely got rid of the control of monsters, other professionals appeared, the priests of the Holy See, knights, and various professionals. They either obtained natural gifts, or communicated with other worlds, or It is to believe in the light and gain strength from the light."

Art thought: "Is the essence of their power and psionic power the same?"

Fast shook his head: "Their power system is different from ours, and their nature is also different. We wizards, learn knowledge, use knowledge, control knowledge, gain power from knowledge, and pursue the ultimate. You can answer this question Answer yourself in the future."

Earl Fast's face became serious: "Art Angus Crawford."

"Here!" Art also became serious. Seeing Earl Fast's expression, he understood that such a ceremony was very important.

"Fast Suzy Glora obeys the wizard's glory, and will be your guide, guiding you on the wizard's path, and you will continue to explore on the wizard's path."

"I, Art Angus Claude, will inherit the glory of wizards." Art read aloud.

In the dark, he seemed to feel that a pair of eyes were looking at him.

high sky?Or is it somewhere else?
He didn't know, but Fast saw his expression.

"What's the matter? Art?" Earl Fast asked aloud.

After thinking for a while, Art decided to say it: "Just now, at the moment when the ceremony was completed, it seemed that there were two eyes looking at me."

Hearing this sentence, Earl Fast was taken aback: "Eyes?"

"Yes." Arthur nodded.

Yate's expression does not seem to be fake, and the other party does not need to deceive himself in this regard. If it is true, then there must be a reason.

As an official wizard, he has experienced many things. The appearance of this situation may be related to some phenomenon or monster.

He immediately turned his head and said to the wall: "Aisha, check the magic circle of the castle, especially the part that guards against prying eyes."

Afterwards, Art saw a human face appear on the wall and said, "Okay, master."

"what is that?"

Earl Fast smiled: "Aisha, the Mercury servant, is also part of the castle's defensive structure, the maid who took you to the room yesterday."

"Oh." Art nodded suddenly.

"Okay. Then let's start with the most basic learning." Earl Fast went straight to the topic, "The most basic thing is about the practice of wizards."

"The progress of a wizard is actually to constantly develop and improve one's spiritual power, and at the same time, to constantly dig out one's own blood. Both of these points can be accomplished by meditation."

"A complete and qualified meditation method, in the process of practice, can slowly increase your total psionic energy to the upper limit, and at the same time, it will continuously improve your blood." Fass Earl Te looked at Yate, "Actually, as your strength continues to improve, you will be farther and farther away from ordinary people. When you become an official wizard, you can even say that you are two different people from ordinary people." The species exists."

"This is also one of the reasons why it is difficult for powerful wizards and professionals to have children after combining with ordinary people."

genetic change?

Arthur raised an eyebrow.

However, Earl Fast didn't seem to say much about these matters. After a brief mention, he began to talk about the realm:

"The realm of a wizard can be simply divided into two, one is a formal wizard, and the other is an apprentice wizard."

"Before you become an official wizard, you need to go through three levels, elementary, middle and advanced. Each level is a difficult challenge." Fast's expression is serious, "And a good meditation method has a high starting point. Your blood can bring you a higher starting point on the path of wizarding."

"Those sons of kings and dukes are born with great potential. Whether it is the speed of cultivation or the difficulty of breaking through, they are better than those sons of viscounts and barons."

Alti next to him couldn't help covering his forehead when he heard this, because his father was too dumb to speak.

Yate was a little speechless when he heard it. Even if it is true, can't you be more tactful?
A strong bloodline is born noble.

He naturally understood what the other party meant.

"The level of meditation can also affect the future of a wizard."

Earl Fast looked at Art and said in a deep voice: "I heard from Alti that you feel that 'Dark Night Poetry' is very suitable for you. Although I have some doubts about this, I respect your choice. After all, If you want a good meditation method, you need to pay a corresponding price."

"Now, let me test your aptitude." Earl Fast snapped his fingers, and ripples appeared on the wall. Aisha, the mercury maid, appeared from the wall, holding a round purple crystal in her hand.

When Aisha came to Art, Fast said, "Now, put your hands on both sides of the crystal."

Art nodded when he heard the words, and pressed his hands on both sides of the crystal ball.

The moment his hands touched, he felt a tingling pain, and then the crystal lit up.

A small pure black vortex, spinning in the crystal, around the vortex.

The vortex is not big, it only occupies about one-fifth of the crystal.

"Well, the low level is high." Fast pondered for a while, and said out loud.

"Mediocre?" Art asked tentatively, and moved his hand down.

"Yes." Fast nodded, "Aptitude is related to the concentration of blue blood in your body, and the color of the vortex reflects your affinity with the elements."

"Pure black, no wonder you said that you think 'Dark Night Poetry' is very suitable for you." Al next to him raised his voice, "Pure black represents the dark attribute. Although dark night poetry is a low-level meditation method, it is one of many meditation methods. Among them, there are very few pure dark attribute meditation methods."

"Okay, it's good that you know the results of the test." Fast nodded and asked Aisha to take the crystal back.

"The process of practice is to constantly outline the inscriptions in meditation in your spiritual sea. The more you outline, the more psionic energy will be generated in the spiritual sea. Elementary apprentices need to outline nine inscriptions, medium is 27 inscriptions, advanced You need 81 inscriptions, and after that, you will be promoted to an official wizard, you don’t need to worry about this, it’s too far away from you.”

Fast talked eloquently: "These inscriptions engraved in the spiritual sea are the basis for casting spells. Each spell requires a certain number of runes to complete the construction in the form of patterns or words or a combination of the two. Filled with spiritual energy, you can successfully cast spells."

Are these the principles of casting spells?

Arthur took this to heart.

"It takes a long time to outline the runes. Your aptitude is low-level and high-level. It may take at least half a year to be promoted to a basic apprentice." Fast sighed, "Want to To help me with my experiment, I need at least an elementary apprentice, it seems that you will not be able to help me with my experiment in a short time, if it is better, I can wait for two months."

"Let's do this." Earl Fast thought for a while, and said, "I'll give you two elementary experimental preparation manuals, and you will travel while studying. When will you reach elementary apprenticeship, and when will you come back to me? .”

"Okay." Art was stunned for a while, and nodded a little blankly, but he was a little disappointed in his low-level qualifications. It seemed that he was not very popular.

Looking at Fast who was still smiling and Alti with a disappointed expression on his face, he couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart.

But also somewhat relieved.

Waste is not welcome anywhere.

After all, they have no value.
