Chapter 23: The Incident I

“V-room!”

A huge yet heavy noise rang. It was as if the whole basent was shaking.

After a while, rlin stood up from the ground. He patted his head slightly to find that his head and clothes were covered with dust. The place where the large fireball collided with directly caused a gigantic hole, almost half a ter in diater. It only showed what terrifying power was contained within that fireball just now.

rlin quickly checked his Awareness. He noticed that the fra had turned grey again. anwhile, the Spell Model remained the sa except that it had exhausted its Magic Power.

Looking at the gigantic hole, rlin still felt overwheld. The power of that fireball was out of his expectation and its appearance must be closely related to the horizontal fra that appeared out of nowhere in his Awareness.

After that, rlin tried all ways to observe the change of fra in his Awareness. Finally, rlin found the usage of the fra.

It turned out that after rlin had cast Fireball for three tis, the color of the fra would turn from grey to red. At this ti, once he used Mind Power to stimulate the fra, the Spell Model would be triggered and released a gigantic fireball. Its power was terrifying and at least three tis stronger than the normal fireball.

rlin could not understand the reason behind the appearance of the fra. Maybe it was because “The Matrix” had redesigned the Spell Model. Or maybe it was because rlin had passed through from another life.

However, no matter what, this fra at least brought a great advantage to rlin. It could bring out a spell which had a force three tis greater than that of any normal Zero-level spell. Even though rlin did not know how strong a First-level spell was, the fireball created from triggering the fra would not be any less than the First-level spell.

Moreover, this was rlin’s hidden power. He could use it as his trump card.

With the gigantic fireball released by the fra in mind, rlin nad this triggered Fireball as Large Fireball since the na fit the image well.

rlin then continued his Fireball practice in the basent.

When the night had fallen, rlin was bending over his writing desk under the weak candlelight. He was flipping through the final volu of the Spell Manual carefully.

Old man Etha’s Spell Manual consisted of three volus. The first volu talked about his introduction about Spell Casters and his experience of casting spells.

The second volu recorded all sorts of Spell Models in which old man Etha had spent years to create relentlessly. rlin had completed reading the first two volus of the Spell Manual. He had rebuilt his Spell Model and even simulated the Spell Model of Fireball in his Awareness. However, during his practice of Fireball in the basent, he found so weaknesses he had currently.

The most crucial weakness was his lack of Mind Power!

Spell Model determined whether a person could beco a Spell Caster while Mind Power determined whether the Spell Caster could beco a strong one. So, a strong Spell Caster must be excellent in both creating Spell Model and using Mind Power. Only with this, he could be able to overco all difficulties and beco the ever-strong Spell Caster.

To increase his Mind Power, his only way was to ditate.

rlin’s current Mind Power could barely control a Spell Model. If he wanted to construct a second Spell Model in his Awareness, he would not be able to do it. Thus, rlin decided to read through old man Etha’s Spell Manual. He believed that old man Etha must have left a Mind ditation thod in his Spell Manual.

rlin slowly flipped the mysterious third volu open. From just a few pages, he found a few Mind ditation thods, but according to these notes, these were only beginner thods where their effects were limited.

These thods had their own specialties. So specialized in Mind Power recovery. Once he had exhausted his Mind Power, he could recover himself quickly through this thod.

So could increase Mind Power. This was what rlin needed – Mind ditation thod that could increase Mind Power.

After careful consideration, rlin chose a beginner ditation thod and began to do as this thod told. He closed his eyes and maintained the steady state of his Mind Power.

Mind ditation thod like this had to be practiced for a long ti to properly induce a change. So, after rlin had grasped the steps of this thod, he opened his eyes and stood up. He did not check the state of his Mind Power since he did not expect the thod to have any imdiate effect.

“Young Master rlin.”

Outside his door, Lucia’s voice reached him.

“Co in.”

rlin had already woken up and dressed properly by now.

Lucia pushed the door open and entered the room with her head lowered. She said to rlin, “Young Master rlin, the butler asked to take Young Master’s body asurent so that we can make so clothes for you.”

rlin lowered his head to look at his body. He felt it too recently. The clothes on him seed to be slightly smaller. For so reason, his body shape had turned muscular rapidly in these few months as if he was an inflated balloon. His usual clothes seed to be ill-fitting and restricted his movent greatly.

“Alright.”

rlin hesitated for a mont but he still took his coat off. Wearing only a thin shirt, he opened his arms wide and signaled for Lucia to take his body asurent.

Lucia ca forward hurriedly. With a body tape asure, she asured rlin’s height.

rlin had beco a lot taller in these few months, so Lucia was unable to reach his head. She could only stand on tiptoe and stood lightly against rlin’s front chest and asured rlin’s height in difficulty.

Lucia was raising her head as she asured it. She wore her white maid uniform and the neckline was rather wide. rlin could see her fair skin the mont he lowered his head for just a little.

Lucia was a beautiful woman to begin with. She had freckles on her face which did not affect her beauty but it made her look fetching. rlin squinted his eyes while his unscrupulous gaze fell all over Lucia. Suddenly, even if it was freezing outside of the castle, rlin felt a scorching heat rising in his body.

“Young Master rlin, I’m done.”

Lucia seed to notice rlin’s stare and she looked nervous. She took a few steps back and lowered her head. She did not dare to look at rlin.

“Alright. You may go now.”

rlin waved his hand and asked Lucia to leave. He walked in front of the mirror and stared at his young face. rlin smiled a little and mumbled to himself, “It seems I’ve abstained for too long...”

Since rlin had arrived in this world, he had always felt a sense of danger. No matter what he did, he did it carefully and because of that, he seed ticulous and cautious.

Then, he found Magic and imrsed himself in it.

However, this body was only sixteen years old. It was the age that was filled with passion and excitent. Even if he did not have those thoughts, his body would react nonetheless.

rlin wore his coat back and went downstairs but he did not find Macy anywhere in sight.

“Butler, where’s Macy?”

“Young Lady Macy had left for the church.”

rlin nodded. He had been busy practicing Fireball for this whole month, sotis not even seeing Macy at all. However, since Macy had been going out early and coming back late every day, it seed like she had not overco the barrier to beco an Elental Swordsman.

rlin only knew a little about Elental Swordsman. To overco the barrier to beco one, rlin was unsure about the exact ways as well.

However, he knew the most important thing to be an Elental Swordsman was the accumulation of Elent. Only when the Elent had been stored in the body to a certain extent, she could beco an Elental Swordsman.

Macy had an affinity to Fire Elent so she needed to accumulate Fire Elent. rlin’s Spell Model in his Awareness also absorbed Fire Elent. Both matters should have sothing in common.

“When Macy is back, let’s find a ti and test it out. Let’s see if I can help her to overco the barrier to beco an Elental Swordsman.”

rlin decided in his heart.

After having breakfast, rlin wore a grey scarf and headed straight out of the castle.

The butler asked in surprise, “Young Master rlin, you’re heading out?”

“I’m going out for a walk.”

“Young Master rlin, please wait. Let call Moss.”

rlin shook his head. “Don’t have to. I want to go for a walk by myself.”

After that, he left the castle directly despite the Butler’s surprise.

rlin walked for a while and reached old man Etha’s small wooden house.

Staring at the small house, rlin had a complicated expression.

The small house had been abandoned completely because this was the place where the evil heretic had lived so there was no one around. The garden in front of the small house still had so flowers but they were covered by snow at the mont where it ford a blanket of whiteness.

rlin stuck his hands into his pocket. With a hat on him, he looked around the place. After making sure there was no one around, he pushed the rusty iron fence open and climbed the wooden stairs.

rlin took off his hat and gently brushed the snow off. He raised his head and took a glance at the second floor. When he was about to go upstairs, suddenly his expression stiffened as he squinted his eyes.

“Footsteps. Soone’s here.”

rlin said it softly. He noticed a series of clear footsteps on the supposedly dusty staircase. Moreover, the footsteps were covered in moist mud. Obviously, these footsteps were not left here a long ti ago. Soone was here. The person might even be upstairs now!

So rlin looked upstairs cautiously. Then, he wore his hat lightly and went up softly and quietly.

The footsteps still seed clear as no one had cleaned the house for a long ti. So, the stairs were exceptionally dusty. That was how he was able to spot the footsteps so clearly.

Reaching the second floor, rlin checked the door handle carefully. There was almost no dust on it. Soone had opened this door by this handle.

“Who is it?”

rlin did not enter the room bluntly. He squinted his eyes. In his mind, multiple familiar figures flashed across his eyes. The footsteps looked small. Rather than a man’s footsteps, it seed more likely to be a woman’s.

“Could it be Miss Carice?”

rlin could not help but think of Carice. After all, old man Etha was the evil heretic. People of Blackwater City would not co to this place at all. The people who were friendly with old man Etha and used to frequent this place was rlin and Carice.

Right at this ti, rlin’s sharp hearing suddenly caught the soft sound of footsteps outside of the house. Soone was heading toward the main door.

rlin responded swiftly and hid on the left side of the main door. His eyes stared at the main door sharply.
