Ch 9: The Pendant

Spells were not allowed to be taken out. Only copies of a spell can be brought outside. Even though there was no one inside the Spell Pavilion, Thomas knew a powerful elder is guarding the Spell Pavilion while hiding in the dark. Whoever dared to violate the rules of this place, if they were caught, the consequences would be dire.

Thomas started choosing the spells. It took him about two hours to select the spell he wanted to practice and left the Spell Pavilion after registering at the counter.

He wanted to practice these spells and then go out to experience the world. He had yet to leave the magic academy because he was waiting for someone.

Well, even he doesn't know the person he is waiting for. It is just that about a week ago, a letter was sent to him by someone. In that letter, it is explained about some sort of magic stone that can enhance one's talent. Someone wanted to exchange the magic stone for the pendant hanging down his neck.

When he was a child, he saw this pendant in a stall and asked his father to buy it. His father bought the pendant for him.

Until a week ago, he used to think that the pendant is just an ordinary item, however, after he received the letter, he knew the pendant was not ordinary. There must be something special about this pendant, for someone was actually ready to exchange the pendant for a magic stone.

When he went back to the courtyard where he was living, he suddenly became alert. It is because the door to his courtyard was open. He cautiously entered the courtyard but was stunned to see a very beautiful lady sitting at the table, eating a strawberry.

When she saw Thomas arriving, she calmly swallowed the strawberry in her mouth, placed the rest of the strawberry on the table, and then took out a yellow stone. This yellow stone was about a child's fist size and was in the shape of a pyramid. This was the magic stone that can enhance a person's talent.

Taking out the magic stone, she calmly said: "Here is the magic stone, give me that pendant!"

Thomas stared at the beautiful lady for a few seconds before replying: "I've never agreed to exchange!"

"I know!" The mysterious beautiful lady nodded. Then she spoke: "But you have no choice. Either you exchange the pendant with this magic stone or I'll snatch it from you. You are too weak and aren't my match. I can kill you anytime I want. Would you like to give it a try?"

A very powerful aura exploded from her body, pressing down on Thomas like a mountain, causing him to vomit out a mouthful of blood and kneel on one of his knees. A fearful expression finally appeared on his face. He looked at the beautiful young lady and knew she is right. He is not her match. In fact, even his form magic teacher is not her match.

He had only felt this kind of strong aura from the dean of the Mystical Magic Academy.

"Just who are you? Why do you want my pendant so much?" After a while, when the pressure descending on him was withdrawn by the beautiful young lady, Thomas suppressed the overwhelming fear in his heart and asked.

The beautiful lady smiled and replied: "I'm someone an insignificant person like you have no right to know about. As for that pendant hanging down your neck, you might already have a guess in your heart. Right?"

"it is not an ordinary pendant. This pendant has the map to a ruin left behind by a Magic Saint. With your current strength, this pendant is useless to you. Not to mention you can't decipher the map, and even if you can, you won't be able to enter the ruin. So, it is better for you to give me the pendant!"

After some more talk, the two of them completed their exchange.

However, Thomas presented a condition. The condition for the mysterious lady to accept Thomas as her disciple and teach him magic.

That woman was not ready at first, however, when she thought about the map to Magic Saint's ruin, she accepted his condition.

Then without saying anything, she brought him out of the academy and flew in a certain direction.

When Thomas asked where she was bringing him, she told him that if Thomas wants to become her disciple, just slightly increasing his talent in magic with the help of Yellow Stone will not do.

She was bringing him to a secret place that she accidentally discovered when she was looking for a rare treasure in a forest.

And currently, she was bringing him there.

.....

Lucas was forced to go and attract the attention of the Level 3 Magical Beast. He had just come out and was about to be sent away by the two guards when they suddenly heard the sound of messy footsteps coming from inside the forest. When Lucas turned around to look, he only saw two green eyes, with hair standing straight up like thorns on his back.

It was the Iron Thorn Wolf, the Level 3 Magical Beast!

What shocked the three of them this Level 3 Magical Beast was not alone this time, seventeen more Level 1 and Level 2 Iron Thorn Wolves rushed over and surrounded them.

Each wolf opened its mouth, revealing its sharp teeth.

Lucas and others looked around in terror. They were really terrorized to the core. In this situation, even Magic Lord wouldn't be able to escape, let alone Magic Apprentices like them.

"What the hell, is this the only way? Am I going to die here?"

No!

Absolutely not!

He couldn't die here!

Isn't it just an Iron Thorn Wolf?

If really needed, he'll just use the treasure given to him by his father. His life was more valuable than a treasure after all.

Before he left to hunt magical beasts inside the forest, his father gave him a magic treasure. This treasure was just a piece of paper but many strange runes were inscribed on them.

Lucas's father told him to tear apart the paper if he really encountered a danger he couldn't deal with. At that time, he'll gain a few marvelous abilities for a short period of time. It should be enough for him to get out of the dangerous situation.

Lucas no longer saved the treasure. Instead, he took it out and tore it apart. Instantly, the torn piece of paper started shining red before turning into a red beam of light and entering Luca's body.

Instantly, Luca's mana started increasing rapidly, at the same time, many pieces of new information appeared in his mind. Not long after, his strength break through the limit and he became a Magic Master. But the increase in his strength didn't stop. It looks like it would only stop after reaching Magic Lord.

The two guards were frightened when they saw this. They never expected Lucas to have such a trump card with him. They had really underestimated Lucas.

What shocked them the most was Lucas's perseverance. Lucas was able to hold on to himself and didn't use this treasure even though he was severally humiliated by them. This alone was enough to show how terrifying Lucas actually is. If not for Lucas's low strength, he would have really been a terrifying person in this world.

Lucas's strength stopped increasing after Lucas became a Level 7 Magic Master. He didn't manage to become a Magic Lord. But the additional spells that appeared in his mind along with his current strength are enough for Lucas to deal with the current situation and leave alive.

Taking a deep breath, Lucas charged straight at a Level 1 Iron Thorn Wolves.

As he moved, more than ten Level 1 Iron Thorn Wolves also moved. One of the Level 1 Iron Thorn Wolves pounced towards him, its eyes filled with disdain.

When Lucas was still three steps away from it, an Iron Thorn Wolf bit his thigh. Lucas did not stop and continued onwards.

Two steps!

One step!

The Iron Thorn Wolf rose into the air and bit towards his neck.

"Tear Flow!"

Just as the Iron Thorn Wolf was about to taste Lucas's delicious flesh, it suddenly started crying for some reason.

The demonic beast, especially the Iron Thorn Wolf, rarely cried. But once they started crying, that would also be incredible!

At that moment, the Iron Thorn Wolf was crying so hard that its guts almost broke. Soon, the surrounding Iron Thorn Wolves also started crying.

This was the effect of Lucas's newly learned spell 'Tear Flow'. It was a wide-area attack spell and can make his enemy cry for a long time. What is more, as long as his enemy is crying, they wouldn't be able to attack or defend themselves.

Lucas took advantage of this opportunity. He once again cast a spell and many punches manifested in the air as they unleashed terrifying punches!
