Chapter 27 - Return and gifts (Part 1)
The dark curtains blocked the outside sunlight, and the smell of parchment filled the air, which was rich and lonely. For a wizard who is keen on research and loneliness, it is undoubtedly the most relaxing environment for him.
It’s just that for Dalton Kander, the Loren Turin with a formal smile standing in front of himself couldn’t make him feel a little relaxed.
Fifteen minutes, Dalton, who was sitting behind his desk, listened to him explain the cause and effect of the whole incident. The wizard’s expression also became a bit stiff from the beginning without any waves, and finally returned to normal, as if nothing had happened. His blinking eyes revealed his mind.
Obviously, although the whole incident is not a big problem, and it has not caused much impact, if it is not handled well, it may really have a big impact on the reputation of the college-it is really a wise choice to let this wandering knight go by yourself. It was replaced by another apprentice, and Dalton dared not be able to handle it like this.
Although the method is a little too radical, it doesn’t matter. As long as it didn’t affect Wimpar, even if Loren killed blood, he had no opinion. Except for Wimpar and the apprentices in the college, any extra sympathy is a luxury. Instead, he is more concerned about another thing.
“Does Father Anthony know?”
“Of course, after all, the whole thing happened in Gumu Town. If I didn’t say it, he wouldn’t let me go.” Luo Ethics nodded, of course, and then slightly raised the corner of his mouth: “But I told him, It ’s another version of the truth. “
“In short, a group of mutant ghouls appeared outside the ancient wood town, and then I found their traces with the help of the Draco priests and traced them all the way. Finally, they were solved in the hut by the lake. Alright-but unfortunately, the priest Draco was killed by a ghoul, and I failed to protect him. “
“He believed it?”
“Of course not. I also added some small details, but they didn’t matter.” Loren said calmly: “The most important thing is that such a result is the most appropriate. Everything is accidental, and there is no conspiracy. . “
Dalton hesitated for a moment, and quickly nodded slightly: “Your choice is sensible.”
Loren shrugged his shoulders … this is the version that he thought about for a long time-at the beginning, he was prepared to describe Draco as a vicious evil wizard or heretic, so that not only did he pick up After cleaning the suspicion of the college, he could also disgust Father Anthony so that he would not dare to continue to find the trouble of the college.
But Loren quickly gave up the plan. For someone like Anthony who hates wizards from the bottom of his heart, such a result may have a counter-effect, making him more resistant to the existence of the academy. Maybe he will continue to make trouble for face, which is contrary to his original intention.
So, although this does not change anything in the end, at least one potential disaster disappears invisible. He solved the problem of Gumu Town smoothly, and everything has nothing to do with the college, and he has nothing to criticize.
Wimpal College has little confidence in front of the Holy Cross Church. Once it is really entangled, it is definitely a complete defeat. Therefore, his task is not only to solve the problem, but also to eliminate all conditions that may threaten the college, and to prevent the church or any other forces from finding trouble with the college.
“It must be admitted that your efficiency is beyond my expectation.” After a moment of silence, Dalton continued: “It is impossible to deal with any wizard, better than you.”
“Thank you for your compliment.” Loren tried to make himself laugh more naturally: “Your praise is my honor.”
“I’m just elaborating the facts.” Dalton regained his original coldness: “Your achievements prove their worth, and it is worth the college to continue to pay.”
“Since I have said this, I have a request that is not very embarrassing.” Loren suddenly said: “My sword was damaged by the wizard, can you help me repair it-this is also a souvenir, I I do n’t want to throw it away. “
“There is a blacksmith shop in the village outside the college.” Dalton raised his eyebrows: “If necessary, the laboratory in the tower can also satisfy you.”
Well, it seems that I can’t count on the free one … A little regretful Loren turned to leave. You need to know that at least four silver coins are needed to repair a sword. After returning from Gumu Town, you have no more money in your pocket.
Maybe you should look for work around you while studying? But guarding a wizard college, and it is still free of charge, I am afraid that the villagers nearby do not need to spend money to hire people.
“Before you leave …” Loren’s right hand just held the door handle, and behind Dalton’s cold voice came the word: “Remember, ‘beyond perception’ is different from other high-level spells, don’t try Use it to measure other spells and you will die without burial. “
Retracted his right hand, and Loren’s smiling, stiff face turned unnaturally.
“I did not instruct Isaac to teach you this spell, but … it should be tacit consent.” Dalton Kant said coldly: “It seems to be a wise choice now.”
How did he know? Loren immediately raised a question in his heart, but immediately left this nonsense behind … It is meaningless to think about it now. The key is what the other party wants to express.
“You chose spelling, and I’m your mentor.” Probably aware of Loren’s expression, Dalton snorted: “Considering the reputation of the college and myself, I must train you to become a qualified The caster. “
“So the first step is to correct your cognition of high-level spells-first, the spiritual halls of the vast majority of wizards cannot withstand too much of the power of the void, so most can only fully master one or two high-level magic, More often than not, it depends on chanting spells to cast spells. “
“But considering the difference between your physique and normal people, the magic you can learn will probably exceed this number.” Dalton paused: “Then,” transcendental perception “is a very special spell that acts on the body , And let the body bear the mental load, so it does not need a wand. “
“Changed to any other high-level spell, your head was already broken ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Dalton said in the usual way of talking:” The common way is to use an appliance-most They are all magic wands, to use magic to share most of the load that the body cannot bear. “
“So, compared to swords, you now need a wand.”
After a long silence, Loren lowered his head: “Thank you for your reminder, tutor.”
This sentence Loren said incomparably sincere-not just thank Dalton for telling himself, but because he didn’t have to tell himself from the beginning. Loren could feel the cold tone of the other party, really thinking and considering for himself.
Loren cherishes this very much. In this unfamiliar world, there are people who are really dedicated to their own efforts, even if only for a moment, they are invaluable.
“You really should be grateful for yourself. A spiritual hall that is tough enough to prevent you from being tortured by a load of higher-order spells.” Dalton’s face did not see any mood swings: “But this is Because the magic of ‘beyond perception’ shares more of the load on the whole body. “
“As a spellcaster, your mental strength is completely unqualified, far from reaching the standard level-so this is my suggestion, find a suitable opportunity to enter the void, and penetrate as much as possible under the premise of ensuring your own reason. , Temper your own spiritual strength. For a caster, spiritual strength is everything to you. “
“It is true that the vast majority of spellcasters can only stay in the juggling stage. But you are my apprentice, and I will never allow this to happen.”
Dalton is not a talkative person, so he closed his eyes and began to meditate after speaking. Loren, who understood the idea, pushed open the door and left the silent study.
“Excuse me, Tutor Dalton.”
