Chapter 123: Instigate

“How beautiful!” Even for men such as Carlos, looking at the intermediate red gem on Camille’s hand, his eyes began to glare in wonder .

“Of course, this was my reward from Mr . Morton for my promotion to rank 4 as a novice wizard!” Camille said proudly, with a particular emphasis on the word rank 4 to mock Carlos .

“I’ve had a feeling recently that my rank 3 novice wizard pattern is almost filled up to rank 4 . You better watch out, I will catch up to you very shortly!” Carlos said, realizing Camille’s mockery .

“Well, are there any magic gems that are even higher quality?” Abel asked softly, interrupting the conversation, wondering if there were any gems that exist in this world that would possess a perfect rank .

“Of course, the best magic gem is known as the elite magic gem . However, even in the biggest gem mines, it is extremely difficult to find just a few pieces of them . For me, I have never seen these kinds of gems before in my life, and I’ve only heard rumors that some large organizations will have a small collection of them . These gems are the source of energy for a large scale magic circle . So, It’s is not easily attainable for ordinary wizards . ” Camille replied, then paused and said, “It’s the eleventh floor . You can go now!”

Abel looked up and saw that the staircase in front of him which was blocked by a large wooden door carved with strange animals and bird patterns, which he had never seen before .

As he gently pushed the door open, and it was dark inside . When Abel took his first step into the door, he immediately felt a sense of weightlessness . After a brief period of weightlessness, Abel was teleported into a mysterious room .

Was this some kind of teleporting array? Though Abel had just heard Camille talking about something related to teleportation, the feeling was not nearly as intense as being here physically . This feeling wasn’t as intense as when Abel was entering through the portal to Rouge’s Encampment, but it was the first time he had been teleported by a teleporting array .

“Not bad, you stayed calm . This is the mentality a wizard needs . ” Within a flash of a figure, Wizard Morton had appeared before Abel .

Abel was no longer surprised by the way people appeared and disappeared out of nowhere, like Wizard Morton in this instance . To this date, he still couldn’t understand how people can appear out of thin air like this, but it seemed like the elites really liked to appear this way .

“The honorable Mr . Morton, how are you!” Abel bowed .

“Abel, will you be my disciple?” Wizard Morton asked, speaking directly without any greetings or ceremony .

Abel had never expected the wizard to ask such a question as he had just met him, but Abel promptly reacted and said, “I will ask the honorable Mr . Morton!”

“From now onwards, you won’t have to follow the rules of the noble etiquette within the tower . Wizards don’t have much time to be polite, you see . From now on, you’ll call me teacher,” said Morton, with a small grin on his face .

“Yes, teacher!” Abel immediately responded .

“You are my sixth disciple, and above you, there are three senior brothers and two senior sisters . Your first brother is a level 6 wizard and is the fourth wizard of the Duchy of Carmel . He is currently guarding the miracle city in the valley of Mount Budapest . As for your second brother and third sister . Here, Morton paused a little, sighed, and said, “They both followed me long ago, and now their life is coming to an end, so they have been closing their doors for years in search of a chance at survival chance!”

Wizard Morton then looked at Abel and said, “You are still too young, and may make you not understand the importance of your life . When you become a level 1 novice wizard, your life expectancy was raised to 150, and every time you rank up, you gain 10 years of life . This may seem like it’s a long time, but if you don’t make the most out of every second, such a mighty long lifetime can be gone in a flash .

“Thank you for the wise instruction!” Abel was no ordinary 13-year-old boy, and his desire for life was much stronger than anyone else’s .

“The reason your two elder brothers and sisters ended up like this was that they underestimated the importance of training when they were young . As they got older, the difficulty of practicing increased too, causing them to stuck between level 5 and level 6 wizards . I wanted to provide them with potions to force their ability to increase to a rank 6 wizards, but they didn’t agree . ”

Wizard Morton looked at the doubt in Abel’s eyes and sighed, “The potions are the fastest way to force a wizard to increase their ability to the next rank, but after that, they will never be able to increase again . This is why they would rather die with their proudness than use the potion to increase their ability . ”

When Abel heard what Morton said, he couldn’t help but think of the three disciples of Yvelines magic tower . Those three were crazily trying to earn money so that they could buy these increasing rank potion . This may be their goal, as they thought reaching level 6 was already good enough for them . However, uncle Sam, the 4th disciple at Yvelines magic tower, had his goal higher, he wanted to use his own efforts in leveling up as a wizard .

Thinking of uncle Sam, Abel asked, “Teacher, has Novice Wizard Sam has been stuck with level 5 novice wizard for so many years?”

When he heard Abel ask this, Morton laughed . “For someone with your personality and your relationship with Novice Wizard Sam, I wondered when you would ask this question . ”

Abel smiled with a hint of shyness but kept looking at Morton as if he was waiting for an answer .

“Alright, I’ll tell you about Novice Wizard Sam’s main problem . ” Wizard Morton looked at Abel with great appreciation . Knowing that he could help his former teacher ask such a question presented Abel as a caring person . This was what you wanted your disciple to become if you ever had one .

“Novice Wizard Sam is a hard to come by genius . To be honest, I’ve known wizard Yveline for many years, and I must admit, he is not a particularly good teacher . But despite that, under the guidance of Wizard Yveline, Novice Wizard Sam still reached the peak of a level 5 novice wizard through his own dedication . He was just one step away from being a rank 6 official wizard, which is something to be cherished . ”

Morton then shook his head slightly and added, “But his disadvantages are too obvious . He has learned only one spell, “Fireball,” and has not learned another . Every day, he worked extremely hard behind closed doors and rarely goes out and walk around . ”

Abel knew about this, the only spell Novice Wizard Sam practiced was “Fireball”, and it was the only spell Novice Wizard Sam had taught him .

“I’ve heard that he almost lost his life in an adventure when he was young . He hasn’t left Bakong City since then . The Wizard Morton seemed to disapprove of this behavior on Sam’s part .

Abel couldn’t help thinking of The Lord of Marshall’s rescue of Sam, and it was after that event, they became best friends . Was it because of that particular event that made Sam never want to venture out again?

“He worked his way up through his genius to the peak of a rank 5 wizard . But without experience and the lack of flash of realization when it came to magic, his rank 5 novice wizard journey was incomplete, and this is why he is currently stuck . ”

Wizard Morton then looked towards Abel, and whispered, “To be honest, I actually wanted to find the opportunity to remind Sam about this matter . But since he was a disciple of Wizard Yvelines, I couldn’t directly tell him about these things . Now that you mentioned it, I am very glad I could finally answer it . I sincerely hope he can successfully increase his rank . If he does, we will have another official wizard within the Duchy of Carmel . ”

Afterward, Abel bowed to wizard Morton and said, “Teacher, the answer that you gave me today will be the gift that I will be giving to Sam . Thank you so much for your unselfish mentoring . ”

“Sam is still young . If he changes his way of thinking, then the Duchy of Carmel will have another formal wizard . ” After finishing his last sentence, Wizard Morton changed the topic immediately and said, “When you’re a rank 1 wizard, you should learn every magic spells possible . It could save your life at some point in the future . ”

Abel nodded, as he agreed strongly to what WizardMorton has stated . Spells differed only in power, but they all had their special purposes and uses .

“There are no useless spells, only useless wizards . In the three types of spells that exist, the fire spell is the most violent and explosive . Ice can slow down your opponent’s speed with decent attack damage . Electric spells are the fastest of all 3 in magic spells . Its speed makes it literally impossible for your enemies to defend, and it also has the ability to numb the enemies . The only disadvantage is that it has the lowest power output of the three spells . ”
