Chapter 3: The Power of Magic

Time passed quietly in the sound of flipping books, and in the blink of an eye it was already late at night.

The books at Chen Luonan's feet were already half a person high, and the dizziness in his brain prevented Chen Luonan's desire to continue learning, so he closed the book in his hand, "Advanced Use of Blazing Flame Magic: Flame Explosion Technique", and put the mountains of books on the ground back to the bookshelf one by one.

"Boom!" a mysterious inscription appeared on his hand, and the surrounding magical elements quickly gathered, and a blazing fireball suddenly appeared out of thin air.

"What an interesting worldβ€”" he put away the fireball, and the inscription mark faded. "If you come, you will be safe. So from today onwards I'm Murphy Cyrus. ”

Then Murphy stretched and walked slowly to the door.

The doorman at the door had already changed shifts three times, and he was amazed to see Murphy walk out of the library.

But they did not dare to come forward to ask, but only bowed respectfully, and continued to guard the door of the library like sculptures.

Murphy rubbed his hungry stomach and walked to the royal dining room, but saw the person he least wanted to see in his memory, the eldest prince of the Sellers dynasty - Kellens Sellers, with the support of more than sixty percent of the ministers in the court, and almost locked the victory of the future succession war in advance.

While Murphy was looking at Karens, Karlens also looked up at Murphy.

Unlike Murphy's now lazy eyes, Clarence's eyes were like a sharp sword, and when he looked at himself, Murphy felt like he was pierced all over his body.

"Fourth brother, come and sit. Karlens beckoned to Murphy and ordered.

Murphy walked over, pulled out a chair and sat diagonally across from Kelens, trying to avoid his sword-like gaze, and let the attendant serve dinner and bury his head in eating.

Karlens had been watching Murphy who was immersed in the food, and when he finally finished eating and got up to leave, he suddenly stopped him: "Murphy, I heard that you have finally started studying magic recently?"

Murphy turned to look at him and said, "That's right, I suddenly felt that magic was very interesting recently, and I wanted to learn it." ”

Karlens tugged at the corners of his mouth and let out a stiff smile, "This is a good thing, I believe my father will be happy about it too." ”

He stood up, walked to Murphy's side, stretched out his hand to help Murphy tidy up his messy collar, and then attached it to Murphy's ear, whispering in a voice that no one else could hear: "But there are some things you must not get involved in, just leave it to the brothers." You've been played by me since you were a child, and if something makes us unhappy, I won't be soft on my brother. Don't worry, Brother Wang won't treat you badly..."

After saying that, Karlens patted Murphy on the shoulder, turned around and led a group of attendants out of the restaurant, leaving Murphy with a confused face.

Is he warning me anything?

However, it sounds like he was afraid that I would participate in the future struggle for the throne, so I came to warn myself, after all, although the king is strong, he is old, and each prince has begun to expand his power to prepare for the future.

The eldest prince in memory, Karens, is an existence that Murphy would never dare to provoke before.

This Great Brother is a powerful warrior who practices the Fighting Spirit of the Star System, but he hates magic and dislikes spellcasters.

But the people still regard him as the hero of Wallaine, calling him the "sword of the empire", the future of the country of order, while the enemy country calls him an executioner, a butcher, a madman, etc...

There is no other reason, just because his royal brother once led the knights of the headquarters with only more than 1,000 people on the battlefield with the orc tribe on the top of the mountain, went deep behind the enemy, and fought with the front-line army in front and back, and directly won the war.

On that day, on average, there were more than a dozen orc souls under the sword of each knight, and the entire Rus River was stained red with the blood of the orcs, and his royal brother Karlens personally cut off the heads of thirty-three orcs, and became famous in the first battle, and won the title of a butcher.

But it doesn't matter, Murphy doesn't take his words to heart, and if Karlens wants to do it to himself, he will have to pay a huge price.

After all, no matter how unbearable he is, he is still a member of the royal family, and if he kills himself, Karlens will also lose his qualification to compete for the throne.

After thinking about this, Murphy didn't think about this unpleasant thing, shook his head, banished the cluttered thoughts from his head, and then practiced his newfound magic.

In a corner of the martial arts arena, Murphy found a place where few people usually come and practiced.

With his memory, he slowly drew an inscription full of mysterious aura on his hand, then closed his eyes, and slowly chanted in his mouth, the surrounding magical elements surged towards his palm, and after about five seconds, a fireball the size of a human head appeared in Murphy's hand, exuding a blazing heat, and orange-yellow flames kept churning.

At the end of the chanting, Murphy suddenly opened his eyes, aimed at a large training stone in the corner of the martial arts arena, and shouted: "Fireball Technique!"

Then he threw it away with a flick of his hand.

"Boom!" the fireball hit the big rock accurately...... The weapon rack next to it, those decorative weapons were scattered all over the ground in an instant. Broken knights' spears, charred wooden frames, and flaming banners, it looks like it's been a skirmish.

Murphy didn't feel embarrassed by the crooked magic throw, but began to calmly analyze the blow he had just made.

"In addition to losing this 'Fireball Technique', the strength of the spell has definitely reached the strength of a first-level trainee mage, but since I haven't fully mastered the Blazing Flame Spell, I haven't been able to take the mage license yet. Let's try this 'Geoflame Technique' again. ”

As he spoke, he drew another spell inscription on the palm of his hand, repeating the process of chanting with his eyes closed, but this time the chanting was slightly different.

When he opened his eyes again, a human-tall flame rose within a radius of five meters, and the high temperature directly burned a banner that had been blown up under the fireball attack just now into ashes.

Unlike Fireball, Geoflame is an indiscriminate spell that burns all targets within its reach, but it is said that this spell can still be controlled to attack specific targets if the spell is controlled sufficiently.

"At present, the main problem is that my spell control ability is too poor, and it seems that I still need to practice repeatedly to control the casting range and attack target. Murphy muttered, but the movement of the inscription in his hand did not stop.

"Fireball", "Earthfire", "Skyfire", "Flame Sputter", "Flameburst"...... One magic after another bombarded the large rocks in the distance, and the time was slowly passing, and before you knew it, it was already morning.

King Sorens Sellers likes to go for a walk in the arena every morning, because it gives him the feeling of being on the battlefield and reminds him of his mission.

But today it doesn't look like the same thing as usual, it seems to be... The feeling of the battlefield is heavier.

"Wei'an, you go to the martial arts arena to see what's going on, and be careful not to reveal your whereabouts. His Majesty frowned and commanded behind the empty man.

"Yes, Your Majesty. The shadow at the king's feet split into a piece and moved swiftly toward the field. After a while, the "shadow" returned to the king's feet and merged back into the king's shadow.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's the Fourth Prince, who is practicing magic in the martial arts arena. In terms of magical strength, it has reached the standard of a first-level trainee mage. Vian reported respectfully to the king.

"Murphy?" the king raised an eyebrow, a little surprised. "I'm ready to give up on him, but I didn't expect him to stop learning magic. Let's go, Vian, let's go see. As he spoke, His Majesty strode forward, eager to see what had changed in his most unsuccessful son.
