Chapter 64 -61 Level 9, Mission
As he passed by the notice board in the town center, Ronan stopped to take a look. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
There were still many Wandering Grey Robes around the board, buzzing with discussions like a swarm of wild bees.
The content on the notice board had no new changes, still the same tasks that were posted in the morning.
The rewards for each task were highlighted with striking fluorescent paint, made bold and prominent—potions to enhance spiritual power, Advanced Zero Rank Magic Tools, Magic Stones, official student status at the academy, ship tickets, and even…
The opportunity to become a disciple under an Official Wizard Level Expert!
Ronan’s gaze lingered for a moment on the last reward.
On this notice board, the only thing that held a bit of allure for him was this.
The importance of inheritance to a wizard was unquestionable; the difference between being guided and groping one’s way forward alone was huge.
“Jerome…”
Ronan softly murmured this name, his eyes faintly gleaming.
The accessibility of the academy entry qualification that he had always coveted, now seemed to be his for the asking.
But at this moment, Ronan was in no hurry.
Ronan felt that joining the academy at this juncture, being of Wandering Grey Robe origin, he would most likely be immediately sent on those high-risk battle missions that could cost one their life at any moment.
And once he became an official student, he wouldn’t even have the right to refuse.
For the sake of inheritance, for a chance at becoming an Official Wizard, Ronan was not unwilling to take risks.
But…
At the very least, he had to see rewards equivalent to the risks.
“Wait a bit longer…
Wait for the right opportunity…
And wait for my strength to grow stronger…”
Ronan silently repeated to himself.
Last night’s chaos, the battle with two Advanced Apprentice Black Robes, Ronan appeared dominant.
However, the actual combat did not unfold as he had anticipated.
The Control Magic he had learned had no opportunity to be cast in the extremely rapid pace of a two-against-one fight.
In the end, it was still due to too low Proficiency.
If the [Weakness Curse] and [Electric Light Flowing] could reach the mastery level of rapid casting, both the process and outcome of the battle might have been entirely different.
“Still need to train…”
Ronan shook his head and withdrew his gaze from the notice board.
The small group that had supported each other out of the Tree House District months ago had dispersed; some had left, others scattered, and Ronan found himself once again alone.
With fewer concerns, his focus became even more singular.
In the days to follow, Ronan lived in seclusion, spending nearly all his time in arduous training.
….
“Buzzzz—”
Ronan’s lips trembled, uttering short, vibrating syllables.
With the achievement of spiritual power resonance, several bright streaks of electricity, like snakes, shot out from beneath his feet.
Tracing their path, clear signs of melting appeared on the thickly frozen lake surface, and when they reached a predetermined target point, the electric light exploded.
Several fish with white bellies flew out from under the water, lying stiffly on the ice.
“Huff—”
“With the [Electric Light Flowing] at a Mastery level, the number of streaks of electric energy released each time can reach up to eight, and it’s possible to control the direction of the flowing electricity to some extent with a casting time that takes just over a second….”
“It’s finally reached the standard where it can be used in actual combat.”
Ronan exhaled a breath of turbid air, looking at the effects his Spell now exhibited, his expression one of moderate satisfaction.
He took a low-level Spiritual Power Recovery Potion out from his waist pouch, poured it into his mouth, and waited for his spiritual power to slowly replenish.
Meanwhile, he casually opened his character panel.

….]
This month had been the one in which Ronan’s strength saw its greatest increase!
He spared no expense, using various Magic Stones for auxiliary and enhancement potions, and the gains he achieved were unprecedentedly huge.
His spiritual cultivation leaped directly from Apprentice Level 7 to Apprentice Level 9!
The Proficiency levels of his combat skills also improved drastically.
In addition to the previously mentioned [Electric Light Flowing], the two Undead Magic Control Spells, [Weakness Curse] and [Wailing of the Dead Soul], were also trained to a proficient level.
Ronan thought it over, using Undead Magic Spells would not bring unnecessary troubles as long as he avoids casting them in front of others; he just needed to be careful to cleanse any residual negative energy particles after casting.
He even learned the [Bone Spear Skill] and [Corpse Explosion Skill] obtained from the Advanced Apprentice Black Robe.
The former, as an Advanced Zero Rank Spell, had decent power but too long a casting time, requiring bones for casting materials.
The latter, although simple to cast, also had demanding conditions, requiring the body of an animal or human to be able to cast it…
For Ronan, both Spells were rather inconsequential.
What truly made him feel a huge improvement in his combat capabilities was still his trump card—the [Energy Missile – Particle Torrent], which had reached a Master Level proficiency of 31 points!
