"So, how much magic power have you got now?" rax asked curiously.
There were only Cargil, rax, Raven, and Lopaz in the lab right now. Touma and Blondina had work to do, so they had left the lab and returned.
"Wait for a second. I'll create my comprehensive magic panel," Zevien said as he fiddled with his Digi-watch for a minute.
Afterward, he activated a hologram so everyone could see.
———
[Zevien]
-Magic Power: 78.3
-Mana: 783/783
-Awakened Magic spells:
-Magic spells: ,
———
Naturally, Zevien didn't tell them that he had awakened a second magic labyrinth. So he didn't add the new awakening magic spell, Blood Morphing Art in the panel. He had removed Exploding Bullets's formation from his magic core, but the others didn't need to know that as well.
Also, it was just an A-rank spell, and even without weaving it, he could create its magic formation in two seconds and use it.
"Seventy-eight…Crazy!!" Lopaz exclaid before wryly smiling, "I only got twenty-seven right now."
"Your body is giving off a more powerful aura," Cargil suddenly spoke as he looked at Zevien with narrowed eyes, "it's clearly much….much stronger than before."
"Cough….," Zevien fake coughed before cheekily smiling, "oh, it's nothing. I just killed a grade-5 magic beast inside, so that allowed to strengthen my body a lot. I think it's comparable to soone who has refined their body after reaching the 400 magic power mark."
"This magic enhancent is excellent if you can strengthen your body a lot in one go by killing a stronger magic beast," Raven muttered with amazent.
"No, it's not that easy," Zevien weakly smiled, "I tested inside, and it seems that we can only absorb magic beasts that we kill. Also, there's a limit as well, and I felt it. After I killed the wolf and it started to decay and turn into motes to enter inside , the process was painful and slow.
"I clearly felt a limit that even if I kill another grade-five magic beast, my body won't strengthen. Naturally, even If I kill a grade-four magic beast, which I simply can't in the first place, but if by chance I killed it, my body wouldn't strengthen."
"I see."
Everyone nodded.
"Maybe it's related to magic power? Your body wouldn't have been strengthened like that unless you had higher magic power. It's the sa as the usual process, but the ceiling caused by this enhancent is higher," Raven said.
"Seems to be the case," rax nodded, "despite having 78 magic power, Zevien's body is as strong as a person who refined their body with 400 magic power. Even if it's limited, it's already good."
"Ahem. So, Zevien, do you have anything else to tell us? Like, sothing very important?" Raven said as she smiled at Zevien.
"Sothing important?" Zevien frowned as he started thinking about what it was, and then he suddenly rembered.
"We didn't do it," Zevien said with a somber expression.
"We know," rax said with a grin, "but you four were suspected as well because of your confrontation with them at the restaurant."
"So, what happened? Are my friends okay? Were they taken into custody for interrogation?" Zevien fired questions one after another in a worried tone.
"Relax," Raven said as she chuckled, "do you think anything will happen to you if you didn't do it? Look at who is standing in front of you."
Zevien looked at Cargil, who had a stoic expression with a hint of a smile on his face.
Nodding his head, Cargil said plainly, "I used my authority to investigate this thoroughly. Police have already found the perpetrator and the ones behind him as well. They should be reaching jail by now."
"Mhm, mhm," Raven nodded smilingly, "Francik won't easily rest since his son died. Those brothers wouldn't get bail and will have to serve so years while that assassin will be beheaded since he had tens of murders on his hands."
"That guy was very hard to catch because of his magic labyrinth's awakening spells, and the other magic spells in his arsenal were also all about disguising, hiding, and such. But we got so information from an unknown person about his location and caught him," Cargil said before creasing his brows, "the one who sent information feels more dangerous. We couldn't trace that ssage even using our latest technologies and software."
'So, it was Yowen. But why did he help us?' Zevien wondered before putting it aside for now, 'anyway, I was going to visit him in the first place after leaving the academy, but instead, I had to co here. Guess I'll go now and strike a deal with him.'
"Thank you for the help," Zevien slightly bowed and thanked Cargil for his help.
"No problem. It's nothing compared to what you did," Cargil said with a nod as he looked at Lopaz, "if you didn't succeed in the experint and then helped my grandson…."
Cargil sighed, "I knew my grandson was determined and strong-willed, so I thought that my grandson would succeed as well since you managed to succeed."
"Grandpa…," Lopaz's expression beca worn down, and then he looked at Zevien with a serious face, "thank you, Zevien."
"Old man, everything is okay now," Raven said with a smile, "Lopaz indeed held on until the end, unlike the previous man. That's why he managed to survive."
"Another thing we might need to note is that this experint might only work on classless magicians, but we can't be sure until we test further," rax said thoughtfully.
"We are out of necessary materials now, and it will take so ti to procure them again as they are expensive," Cargil said with a frown, "I'll inform the governnt about our results and relay to them that we need more tests."
"Umm, since there's nothing for to do, can I go now?" Zevien said with a wry smile, "I need to go sowhere urgently."
"Do you want to drop you sowhere?" Lopaz said with a grin, "I am also going to a private magic dojo now that I awakened my magic labyrinth."
"You both can go now," Cargil nodded before saying to Lopaz, "contact when you reach the Wind Pillar Magic dojo. The master of that Dojo is an old friend of mine and a hidden 1st class magician of the city."
"Okay," Lopaz nodded with a wide smile as his eyes showed excitent about finally getting a chance to get stronger in this path of magic.
…
Both Lopaz and Zevien left in Lopaz's silver-blue sedan car that looked a bit similar to a mustang.
"So, where do you want to go?" Lopaz asked while driving.
"A good bike store," Zevien said with a weak smile, "I don't have any vehicle, but now that I have money, I can buy one."
"Magic enchanted bike or normal bike?"
"My budget is 500,000 Lopax credits," Zevien said with a grin, "If I can get a tier-2 magic bike at this price, then it would be great."
"Hmm, alright. I know a good place so let's go there," Lopaz said with a smile.
Afterward, both of them went to a bike store called Nitrus Bikes.
There, Zevien took thirty minutes to buy a tier-2 magic bike called Silver Fox.
Its price was 635,900 Lopax credits, but Lopaz knew the owner and got him a discount, so Zevien paid exactly 500,000 L.Credits to buy it.
Afterward, both of them left the store walking as Zevien sat on his newly bought bike outside.
It was a silver bike with slight black-blue patterns.
[Bike, Silver Fox]
-Rank: Tier-2
-Maximum speed: 450 mph.
-Magic Gears: ,
The bike requires mana stones, and they ca with this bike. Now Zevien needs to press buttons to use those two magic spells. Once those mana stones are exhausted, he will have to buy a new one.
"Thanks, now I'll be on my way," Zevien said to Lopaz as he smiled, "good luck in your training at the magic dojo."
"Alright, let's et again later when the opportunity arrives," Lopaz said with a grin, "if you are in trouble, then the first thing you have to do is contact . I will do my best to help you."
"Hahaha, sure," Zevien laughed and nodded before starting the bike and leaving.
…
After ten minutes, Zevien arrived at a relatively normal house in a residency. He rang the bell, and he heard soone's footsteps as they ca to the door.
The voice box started as Zevien heard a voice, "Hello, who are you, and what business do you have here?"
It was a woman's voice.
From the basent of this house, Yowen was looking at another monitor aside from his nine main monitors. He could see Zevien through the hidden cara he had placed outside and was startled, "How does he know where I live? I helped him so that I could et him and get so answers, but he is already here...."
Outside, Zevien smiled and said, "hello. My na is Zevien, and I am here to et my friend Yowen. He told to co here for sothing important."
Yowen told his mom to open the door as he left his basent and arrived in the hall.
Both of them greeted each other naturally before Zevien followed Yowen to the basent.
"How do you know so much about ?" Yowen asked with a frown, "I am getting too antsy after speaking to you. I want to know!"
"First…" Zevien said before pausing a bit and turning to his monitor, "call Electra out."
Hearing the words, Yowen almost pissed his pants with disbelief on his face.
Zevien just fucking uttered the most important and valuable secret of his life!
