William looked at Zion after Zion's confession and showed a disgusted expression."He rolled his eyes again and said, "I'm not interested in men.Zion immediately tried to rectify the situation. "No, no, I didn't mean it like that...""Please, let's end this conversation now. I told you, I'm not interested in men." William raised a hand and waved it from side to side, showing he wasn't interested in body language either. William was joking, of course. To pursue the subject would make Zion even angrier, and that would make him even more amused."Oh no, I am misunderstood. I said that because you acquired this potion formula." Zion spoke with a helpless look on his face. He even approached and tried to get his hand close to William's shoulder, but William took a few steps back." Hahahaha, I'm kidding. It's not important. As apprentice brothers, we must help each other."Although those words came out of William's mouth, his heart thought otherwise. The value of the two was incomparable,
Time passed much faster than William had expected. Moreover, contrary to his expectations, it took him nine months to finish all the books in the library. The ability to read faster and understand what he had acquired after becoming a mage was at a level that amazed him.Of course, during this time, he not only read books but also made his life more organized and continued his daily training. As for his meditation, he showed a more practical and faster growth since he switched to the Crimson Flame Meditation Technique. At that time, he was at the peak of the apprentice rank.Today, he had just come from his master Alyna. The reason he went to Alyna was because of the [Virgin's Desire] potion, which pushed him into this period of self-correction. In the process, he gave her everything he had learned about this potion, the materials he had developed, and all his theories in a small book.Alyna was delighted to see this, and after a quick glance, she looked at William in disbelief. Willi
"I want to talk to you..." These words came out of Seren's mouth in a deep voice.William was not a cruel person. Seren wasn't a bad person to him either. It was indeed worth a try, but he was hesitant to get close to her because he couldn't be with her all the time and wanted to chase his dreams. Still, he felt that maybe he should have the last conversation between them and accept Seren's offer."Sure, we can talk as much as you want." William kept a smile on his face.Seren was happy to hear William's words and stood up, wiping the corners of her eyes. "I don't want to talk here.""A-Alright." William agreed and they began to walk together.Seren came out of the castle and came to the edge of the small lake.There were no clouds in the sky today. Only stars and a big moon. Seren came to the edge of the lake and bent down to pick up a stick from the ground. Then she walked a few meters and came to a place where there was no mud. Then she crouched down and began to play with the stic
When William arrived in the town, he was suddenly convinced that it was an ordinary town. It was what he saw that made him think so.He saw children and old beggars in the streets, rich fat merchants, ordinary working people, farmers, blacksmiths, tailors, hunters with bows, and a few mages. The reason he was able to spot these mages was because they wandered freely with magic pressure. William wasn't like that.He used a method that also suppressed his spiritual power, including the breathing technique of the Sleeping Tortoise. This way, he didn't want people to suddenly think that he was a mage. He didn't want people to judge him based on whether he was a mage or not.The merchant walked on without stopping and came to a large restaurant that was located up the hill in a side street of the square. This restaurant was located on a corner and had three floors. At that time, there were bards on the upper two floors, and only the lower floor, where the bards were supposed to be, was emp
'I wonder?' William thought, raising an eyebrow. 'I wonder if this Garry has taken control of the meeting point?'It was the most logical thought that came to William's mind. If Garry Blackfinger had done such a thing and taken over the meeting point, William would have faced hundreds of enemies, not just one. William thought that the chances of this happening were very high. He couldn't think of any other explanation.He put those thoughts aside for now, and after deciding to follow these people, he picked up his guitar again and continued playing, but he had just finished a song when the mages in the meeting state above decided to get up and visit the leader at the meeting point.William had another hour or so of work ahead of him. Knowing the meeting point, he decided to follow them later. Besides, the entrance to the meeting point was free. As long as you gave a soul stone, you could enter freely. It didn't matter if he was some tower's apprentice.The group of eighteen left the r
William could clearly see every single hair on the nine people coming toward him. When they approached a certain distance, he snapped the finger of his right hand and a shield appeared in a radius of five hundred meters. This shield was created by a magical device. It did not block the entrance from the outside, but it did block the exit from the inside. It was able to withstand the third-tier disciple's full-power spell five times.Then he snapped his finger once more, and the five-hundred-meter area was covered with fog. This fog was slightly different from the fog at the meeting point. It was an effective but powerful method to disrupt the sense of direction. This was done by William throwing rune-embroidered crystals.Then he snapped again. In an instant, the surrounding spiritual energy was cut off. This magical tool was one that William had worked on for a month. It had the effect of repelling the surrounding spiritual energy, preventi
"Let's handle this first." He said, looking at Garry's friend. Then, without waiting, he lifted his stick and, using his strength proportionally, hit the man on the head with it. It was a straight and powerful blow, but William realized that he was wrong, even though he thought he had his strength under control. Most mages' bodies were very fragile. Before becoming an official mage, their bodies were very weak by normal standards. Of course, this was not the case for knights and those who excelled in some magical arts.However, the same could not be said for the man in front of him. The man's head exploded like a watermelon at William's blow. Teddie and the others bowed their heads helplessly as if the splashes of blood and brain fluid on them bothered them. It was a bad sight, but William had not expected such an outcome."I'm sorry." Having said that, he quickly untied the others and sent some flames at the man whose head exploded like a w
"ARRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!"Garry stared at the blood flowing from his missing arm, and his shattered elbow, and after gritting his teeth, he redirected his mana to stop the bleeding. Then he took a dark red potion from his dimensional bag, poured it on his wound first, and drank the rest.Then, enduring the pain, he looked in the direction of the arrow and the danger. Something was approaching him very quickly, and based on his perception, he was sure that he couldn't escape the thing coming towards him. Even his maximum speed wasn't enough to escape.So he raised his right hand and made a swinging motion. A shield of round hexagonal crystals appeared around him. Then he stepped down and cast another spell. He put his right hand on the ground and a black mist covered an area of almost a kilometre around him. Inside, the atmosphere suddenly turned to night.Then he just started waiting.
