My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer-Chapter 338 Mage
When the light dimmed, the two found themselves facing a man who looked a lot like Manilyn, with a long white beard and a shiny bald head, Mr. Zhanid was looking at his wrist, which had four identical watches.
"Hohoho, so you're the kids that caught Hazor's attention" Meredith was showing her typical surprised face, in Luke's case, he already imagined that the professor could be someone eccentric. In the end, he was really right. Professor Zhanid had the typical features of an old wizard, on his back he carried a wooden staff that at the ends had a kind of bell. His outfit was a suit and tie and over that, a wizard's cape. On the belt of his pants was a leather book with gold trim, in the old wizard's arms there were also four clocks on one side and four compasses on the other. All these traits just showed how eccentric Zhanid was, something that at first glance had Meredith worried.
"My name is Luke Lange, this is my mate Meredith" Zhanid then turned his back and started talking, as he walked out of the room they were in.
"This one is a teleportation area of ??the melki academy, this one isn't used much, but it's really something very useful isn't it? The magic circle present in this magic circuit is interesting, it has an activator and a microcontroller capable of destroying in case of a mana destabilization. If you think about it, this kind of technology is crucial when thinking about a hypothetical war scenario." Zhanid continued talking without stopping, his voice echoing through the stone room in which the three found themselves. The temperature in New Yukiat wasn't that cold, but you could still feel the humidity in the air in that room. The elder then guided the two of them to a sofa, in what appeared to be a lounge at the beginning of a large tower, with bookshelves stretching to the top. At the end of the tower it was possible to see a stained glass window with a book and an eagle.
"Regarding this library, this is a transition center for the collected files to the region of the Plateau de Diamante, it is like a kind of secondary library where we store some books that must be added to the academy's book system. This process is quite tiring, I imagine that Hazor must have already commented on the large body of content regarding combat magic." The old professor didn't stop talking in any way, Luke was visibly annoyed, but he just ignored him and started trying to talk "You know Mr Zhanid, I'm looking for some way to mitigate the effects of a curse, a way to control the collateral damage of a curse," the old mage's eyes began to glow with excitement, Zhanid gestured and a tea tray came flying towards him, the lord then began to brew some tea while answering the boy's question "When it comes to curses, the best way would be through a magical artifact, for that you would need a blacksmith mage and someone who specializes in the area of ??curses, I believe the Living Library can help you with that when we get to the Academy" Meredith and Luke then exchanged glances confused, "The Living Library? What is that?" Luke asked.
"Hohoho yes, you don't know then, forgive me. The Academy adopted a girl 15 years ago. She remembers all the books in the academy, both those in this roast and those kept at our headquarters. She is probably the most versatile mage in our academy." This news shocked the two young men, who again looked up to the top of the tower that was completely crammed with books and that was not the entire collection known to the girl.
'Balance, are we really going to need a blacksmith?'
[What he said is correct, wearing an amulet is the best way to correct the side effects of a curse. Creating active and constant magic, this can only be achieved with the support of more than one experienced person]
Luke then scratched his head apprehensively, "Mr Zhanid, could this sensory help us?"
The old man then started to laugh "hohoho, Megan is not a sensory my boy. Though surely her strength is much greater than mine."
This news made Luke less worried, if he was a sensory mage, it would probably be even harder to add her to the group. Now the only thing missing would be a blacksmith, however Luke could look for that later. Zhanid kept talking nonstop about the trip, stressing Luke and Meredith a little. After the gentleman finished packing some books, he put them in a cloth bag that began to levitate behind him. After that, the three left that long stone building. Arriving in an extremely empty forest, when Luke looked back he noticed how different it was, the gigantic stone building out of the way of the forest that looked like it had never been touched. Zhanid guided the two to a village near the academy facility, when the group arrived there, everyone in the village began to applaud and thank the old mage. Leaving Meredith with an expression of confusion on her face, but she no longer dared to speak, already wondering how he would go on and on. Gradually things started to make sense, Zhanid used his magic to help that village, both in harvesting in times when there was not much rain, and even with healing magic when someone was extremely sick, in the end, you were a necessary support for the village. After a few more minutes the group was facing a carriage. Two black and apparently strong horses were waiting, standing beside them were two men in simple farmer's garb. "It's a pleasure to guide you again," said one of the men, who was muscular, perhaps from working in the fields. "I was already missing your stories" Said the second man, who was less muscular and thin. Something that surprised Luke was how no one in that village cared about their race, he felt like he was covered. This made him wonder if it was because of being on Zhanid's side, or if simply that humble village didn't have that kind of prejudice. The group climbed into the wagon, Luke borrowed one of the books that were in Zhanid's backpack, while Meredith started trying to sleep. The thin driver also got back into the back of the wagon and began to sleep, while the stronger one stayed in the front talking to the old mage. The stories of that gentleman were impressive to Luke, something that completely changed the boy's view of how Magic could be used. Even though Zhanid was a battle magic teacher at the academy, he was still able to use earth and fire magic to create a water pipeline to the village's fields, synthesized medicine for a flu epidemic that arose among the children, fixed the only grinder in the village and still applied healing magic to the heaviest wounds of the field workers. The old wizard then ran his hand through his beard and asked "How is little Tommy?" the muscular man then smiled and started to tell about his family, his wife and their new born son "He's my second boy, we're still choosing a name for him" this conversation left some questions in Luke's head, he still didn't want to being a father, but he missed his wives terribly.
'I'll finish the revolution and go back to see them...' The trip remained quiet for quite some time, some cows appeared in the middle of the way, making Luke have to get up to remove them from the front of the wagon, other than that, there was no major problem . Which made Luke relieved, he was already thinking the worst. However, just before they arrived in New Yukiat, the group was attacked by robbers. Luke was about to jump towards them, when with simple hand movements, Zhanid buried the five thieves easily, leaving only the thieves' heads out. Zhanid then made small clouds that began to rain down on top of the group.
"You idiot mage! You will regret not killing us!"
"How are we going to get out of here boss?!"
"Be quiet, I'll get up and finish them off"
The Carriage passed smoothly through the group, this made Luke start laughing non-stop. The simplest solution is not always a straight battle. When the group arrived in New Yukiat City, the wagon stopped at an inn where they would spend the night. Just before going to sleep, Luke felt a huge pain in his chest. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺
'Shake what is this?!'
[Breathe Luke you can do it! Just calm down] 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖
This gigantic pain was about Luke's soul splitting again, the more this fragmentation happened, the greater the damage Luke received.
