Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Turning Point of the Girl's Fate (Part II)
The girl's attitude is very humble and deferential, and she is also very respectful of him, which is the best quality of a disciple.
Link nodded in satisfaction, he got up and went to his room, then used the shaping technique to open the enclosed attic, and finally, he got the Dominique Crystal in the clear water.
Within a month, the Dominique crystal had been completely purified, and the black luster had disappeared into a nearly transparent multi-faceted crystal.
However, its appearance is still very ordinary, and it does not have the appearance of god-level equipment that can make a mage crazy.
'Tut, it's really beautiful. Link was very emotional.
He condensed a glass orb, through which he gathered the fire elemental in the environment, and then brought the glass bead close to the crystal, and at the same time, he poured magic energy into the Dominique crystal, and the crystal immediately began to glow as white and hazy as a marshmallow.
Then, Link slowly canceled the glass beads and released the fire elements in them, and something strange happened, these fire elements did not go anywhere, but all flowed into the hazy light around the crystal.
It's like a sponge absorbing water.
After a while, Link revoked the magic power that had been blessed on Domink's crystal, and the vision on the crystal disappeared, the only change was the original pure and transparent crystal, which was slightly stained with a layer of red.
Link concocted it in the same way, directly spending 320 points of magic energy to condense a level 4 flame explosion technique, after the input of the fire element this time, the Dominic crystal showed an obvious red intent, Link observed again, and a message appeared in the vision.
Flame Dominique crystals.
Charge: 15%.
Well, it's worthy of a level 5 crystal, and the capacity is really large.
Against Bell, a fiery fire elemental should be enough, there is no need to consume mana to fill it up immediately, and moreover, it is a good habit for a mage to keep his mana at a level of more than 50% at all times, just in case, especially for a mage like Link with many enemies.
Taking the Dominque crystal back into the space pendant, Link lay down at the head of the bed in the room, Meimei took a nap, and after waking up, Link carefully prepared some teaching props, just prepared for only a minute, and then the door was knocked.
Link looked at his pocket watch, it was exactly two hours, and with a slight movement of his mind, the mage's hand was activated by his wand, and with a 'squeak', the door opened, and the girl Lefu stood timidly outside the door with the ordinary basic wand in her arms.
"Come in." Link beckoned.
Love looked nervous, she walked forward in small steps, and when she entered the room, Link closed the door with the mage's hand, which obviously startled the girl, her body trembled clearly, and her steps became slower.
Magic is mysterious and powerful, and the young magician in front of him has incomparably powerful power, and Lefu has only been in the mercenary group for two weeks, but he has already heard many, many rumors about Link.
This magician, in less than a month, has destroyed the two major bandit gangs of the Dark Brotherhood Syndicate in a row, and his magic is like the sword of death judgment, which is terrifying.
In the face of such a strong man, although the other party seems to be only a few years older than her, it is not obvious when there are many people, but when facing him alone, Lefu feels a psychological pressure that cannot be ignored, and it feels like facing a terrifying prehistoric beast, and the other party seems to pounce on him at any time and tear him apart.
Seeing that the girl didn't dare to move like a frightened rabbit, Link couldn't help but smile, this kind of expression, he had seen too much recently, whenever he showed his magic in front of ordinary people, the other party was generally such a frightened look.
After thinking about it, Link adjusted his sitting position, he was half lying down and half leaning back in his chair, assuming a relaxed posture, his expression was as soft as possible, and his voice was as smooth as he muttered: "Little one, do you know what magic is?" ”
"No, no" Love found herself unable to utter a complete sentence, she was too nervous.
A low, dreamlike voice sounded again: "It is the most glorious jewel in the crown of the Creator." It is the condensation of wisdom that makes the impossible possible. It is the path to heaven for mortals! Little one, do you want to learn? ”
"I think." Love was fascinated, not so much because of the phrase, but because of the person who spoke. At this moment, the other party was like a god on the clouds, looking down at her, and at the same time stretched out a pair of giant hands, reversing her fate.
She forgot her fears, she forgot her stress, and all that was left in her heart was the worship of magic.
Even years later, when she had achieved great things on the path of magic, every time she recalled this past, it was still as clear as yesterday, and in this memory, the image of the dark-eyed young man, such a lazy and confident image, was deeply engraved in the depths of her soul.
"Come and sit down." Link knew he had succeeded in putting the little girl at ease.
Love obediently walked over and sat down cautiously across from Link.
Between the two was a square table with three magic books and a magic scroll on the table.
When the girl calmed down, Link asked gently, "Do you know how to read?" ”
"Yes. My father taught me. Love nodded slightly.
"Good." This was good news, and it saved Link a lot of effort, and he pushed the magic scroll on the table to Love's side again, and asked, "Have you used a magic scroll before?" ”
"No, no." Love shook his head, but his watery eyes cautiously glanced at the magic scroll on the table, his eyes full of curiosity.
"Turn it on." Link laughed.
As a magician, Link understands that the first step in learning magic is the most difficult, because magic seems magical, but in fact, it is a very rigorous and logical system inside, which is destined to be difficult and obscure.
Many apprentices with excellent magical talents often lose the motivation to learn at this step, or even give up halfway, Link doesn't have much time to teach Love, and many times she has to rely on her own self-study, so Link first needs to stimulate Love's interest in magic.
Love placed his wand on his knee, then picked up the scroll and carefully unfolded it.
The record on the scroll is level 0 magic: light magic, this scroll is not a regular scroll, it has been modified by Link, it cannot be triggered by ordinary people, only people with magical talents can activate it.
"See the glowing runes on the scrolls?" Link asked again.
"See." Love nodded, her eyes sparkling with both hands on the scroll, curious and cautious, for fear that she would break the scroll if she moved too much.
"Now, don't think about anything and focus your attention on this rune." Link spoke in a calm voice and guided patiently.
Love did so, and time passed slowly, a second, two seconds, three seconds, four seconds, until ten seconds passed, and suddenly the shimmering rune on the scroll suddenly lit up, and then this light quickly flowed to the other runes on the scroll, and two seconds later, a soft ball of light the size of a fist slowly rose from the scroll.
"You can control it, right?" Link's voice grew softer, like a murmur.
"Hmm." Love's eyes sparkled, and she felt that her mind was closely connected to this ball of light, and if she wanted it to the left, it flew to the left, and if she wanted it to the right, it would go to the right, and it was wonderful.
At this moment, she forgot her fear, forgot her restraints, and just controlled the ball of light, flying far away, until the ball of light flew out of almost 15 meters, she suddenly couldn't feel the existence of the ball of light.
Immediately after, the ball of light flickered and disappeared into thin air as a point of light.
Love expected this outcome, but she was still a little stunned, and she just sat in a daze, still savoring the magic of magic.
Link didn't bother, and waited patiently until Love came back to his senses before he said, "This is the Illumination, the first magic you unleashed. Interesting, right? ”
"Hmm." Love nodded heavily, it was an amazing feeling.
"But that magic is not exactly what you cast, you use the magic scroll, a real magician, you can cast spells without borrowing any foreign objects."
As he spoke, Link snapped his fingers, and a glass bead appeared between his fingers, and with another snap of his fingers, the glass bead disappeared and turned into a soft light cluster, which was a light light technique, and the light ball lasted for a second, then disappeared again, and when it reappeared, it was already a whistle that kept screaming.
The transition between the spells was quick and natural, and although Love didn't know what terrifying spell-casting skills Link contained, it didn't stop her from being in awe.
After a long time, she said seriously: "Mentor, what should I do?" ”
"Let's read these three books first." Link duly pushed the spellbook on the table over.
Love looked at the past one by one, they were "The First Meditation", "Magic Energy, the Extension of Thought", and "On the Basic Magical Structure", these three books are real magic enlightenment books, and its role is to let an ordinary person obtain the basic qualities of a spellcaster through specific exercise methods.
"After reading it, do as it says. The next time I come back from the Academy of Magic, I'll look at your learning, and if you're happy with your progress, I'll teach you to unleash your first real magic. Link said.
"I see, Mentor." Love nodded earnestly, and under Link's guidance, she was no longer as afraid of mystical magic as she had been at the beginning, but instead desperate to recognize and master this power that could change her fate.
Link clearly saw the light he wanted in the girl's eyes, and he nodded in satisfaction.
He believed that if nothing else, in ten years' time, this Lefu should have his own place in the wizarding world.
All he needed to do was give her a boost at the critical moment and provide her with the conditions to learn magic.
Now that his goal of going to Riverdale has been accomplished, and he has overaccepted a talented disciple, it is time to return to the Academy of Magic.
After saying goodbye to Lucy and the others, and bringing a large number of delicious snacks that Lucy had prepared for him, Link got into the carriage of the East Valley School of Magic and set off.
On the way back to the Academy of Magic, Link, who had just been given a powerful hole card, was in a happy and confident mood, and he couldn't help but whistle as he opened the window of the carriage and looked at the beautiful scenery of Gwent Forest.
But the good times didn't last long, Link suddenly felt a violent wind elemental fluctuation coming from the side of King's Road, and at the same time, Link felt that he was locked by magic.
"It's not good, someone sneaked up on me, at least level 3 wind attack magic!" Link was startled, his thoughts flashed, and a hazy flame of light immediately appeared on his body.
Level 3 Defense Magic: Edelweiss!
Almost as soon as the magic was completed, three two-meter-long arc wind blades, lined up in a neat line, rushed out of the forest like iron ploughshares, and cut wildly towards Link's carriage.
