The tip of the knife pierced Hadrian's heart, severing the major arteries in the heart and cutting off his life.

Hadrian died like this.

In the past few years, Robben has killed countless monsters, but this is the first time he has killed someone. Looking at Hadrian who died in his hands, Robben had mixed feelings. Although he died innocently, he was the first person to be killed by his own hands after all, a person who was still alive in the last second.

He silently put the knife back.

When the ring head knife was pulled out, a large stream of hot blood spurted out from the knife, and Robben understood the meaning of the word blood for the first time.

Hadrian's blood splattered on Robben's knife-wielding arm, and the heat remained.

Soon, Robben noticed the abnormality: the heat coming from his arm was far from being explained by a sentence of "hot blood", and all the skin on his arm that was stained with blood was as hot as a cigarette butt.

【Magic, unlocked】

The heart demon suddenly said a word, but at this time Robben had no time to pay attention to it, he felt that the skin on his arm seemed to be peeled off alive, he looked down at his arm, and found that the skin on it was red as if it could drip blood, and a dragon tattoo appeared very abruptly on the big arm. The dragon's entire body was black, half of its body had been reduced to dry bones, and its outstretched wings occupied almost half of the skin of its upper arms. The dragon's head was held high, the smoke swirled between the fangs, and the scarlet eyes looked like two burning rubies.

This tattoo doesn't look like a serious tattoo - and why don't you know you have a tattoo?

Robben subconsciously thought it was some kind of strange curse, but soon he would figure out the truth of the matter.

……

In a lush garden, a blonde man in a gorgeous robe is feeding a small fire dragon that has just broken its shell.

Suddenly, the movement in his hand paused, and the expression on his face became complicated. He rolled up his sleeve and noticed that the familiar mark had appeared on his arm.

"When was the last time you received a call from your master? Twenty years ago? He sighed, threw all the pieces of meat in his hand on the ground, and turned away from the garden.

……

In the quiet library, a man with gold-rimmed glasses is reading a book. Sensing the call, he pushed his glasses that had slid to the tip of his nose, left the book on the table, and walked away as he paced in thought.

……

The girl in the pure white dress felt the hot sting, a look of ecstasy appeared on her beautiful face, and the pair of black angel wings around the girl's waist also trembled slightly with excitement.

She couldn't wait to sketch out a magic circle and rush to the destination of this trip, the Emerald Forest, through teleportation magic.

At this moment, all those who feel the "calling", whatever they are doing, leave their work behind and rush to the place where the master has called them......

In addition to the hot stinging sensation, Robben also felt wisps of power rushing into his body. He traced the source of these powers, and found that the source of the power turned out to be the corpses scattered around the camp.

The integration of power brought a little coolness, making his arm no longer hurt so much, and also giving Robben the energy to listen to what the demons were saying-

[Mana +1, Mana +1, Mana +1-]

Robben: ?

If there is love in the sky, the sky will be old.

But...... I really seem to have acquired the magic powers?

In this world, ordinary people can get improvements in strength, speed, etc., as long as they continue to exercise their bodies, but if you want to become a wizard, it still depends on talent. If you can't awaken your magic, you won't be able to become a magician no matter how much you temper your body.

Robben also once fantasized about one day awakening his magic and becoming a magician, and even took a few home remedies for this, but the final result was, of course, useless. But who would have thought that today's magic power suddenly awakened, and Robben wasn't even mentally prepared.

The magic power was about to move in his body, Robben thought about it, snapped his fingers, and a wisp of blood-red smoke was immediately born on his fingertips, which was a manifestation of the release of magic power.

After the magic power was released from the body, the energy absorption speed in the surrounding corpses also increased a lot, and even a trace of blood qi could be seen rising from the corpse, submerged into the wisp of blood mist on Robben's fingertips.

Under the replenishment of the continuous blood qi, the blood mist grew a lot, and even moved on its own: it first coiled around Robben's finger a few times, and then began to wrap around Robben's palm. When it became about the thickness of the little finger, it actually took the initiative to spread out of Robben's hand, like a hungry snake.

It targets Hadrian's henchmen, who have been immobilized by the Ice Ring. Before Robben could react, it penetrated the hearts of several people, and the vitality of several people passed quickly, turning into nutrients for the growth of blood snakes.

Robben was shocked, he didn't expect that this wisp of magic would actually take the initiative to harvest life to strengthen himself, although those few followers, he probably wouldn't keep it.

He took a deep breath and began to try to control the "blood snake".

As Robben struggled with the out-of-control magic, something suddenly changed in the surrounding forest—teleportation scrolls, portals, spatial tears...... One figure after another arrived here by various means. They were all dressed in pure black wizard robes, with hoods covering most of their faces.

They stood silently in the woods, their eyes staring directly at the "blood snake" on Robben's fingertips, as if there was nothing more important in the world.

Finally, a man slowly stretched out his left foot and took a step forward.

After the great battle just now, there are basically no living creatures in this area, and it is as quiet as a dead field, so even the sound of dead branches breaking is extremely clear.

With this crisp sound, as if pressing the play button of the video, all the people in the woods moved, and they slowly walked towards Robben. They walked very slowly, cautiously, as if they would alarm something if they went too fast. Branches and vines hooked the corners of their robes, making a squirming sound, and for a time the whole forest was filled with this sound.

Robben didn't notice the presence of these people, and he was trying to control the "blood snake" so that it would not go on such a rampage again. In the end, he succeeded, and the "Blood Snake" turned into a puff of blood mist and submerged into Luo Ben's body. After the blood mist entered his body, he immediately turned into an extremely pure magic power, and even if Robben didn't know anything about magic, he could feel that his magic power was increasing.

[Mana +28]

[Current Mana Total: 49, Wizard Level: Second Tier]

While Robben manipulated the Blood Serpent, the hooded men walked out of the forest and silently formed a circle centered on Robben and the fainting Emma.
