Catastrophe Card King Chapter 1492 - 1492 457 The Return of the Crimson Sect

Chapter 1492: Chapter 457: The Return of the Crimson Sect Chapter 1492: Chapter 457: The Return of the Crimson Sect On this day,

Just after class, and two hours away from dinner ti, Leonard Churchill planned as usual to spend his ti in the library.

Walking out of the Magic Academy’s teaching building, and through a short path lined with magic trees, he would reach the library.

However, even before arriving at the entrance, he spotted a dark-skinned boy who had long been waiting in the corner of the unremarkable woods nearby.

It was David.

Leonard, seeing his obviously waiting teammate, smiled and took the initiative to greet him, “David.”

David’s eyes also brightened, and he hurried out of the woods, saying, “Brother Allen, I knew you would co to the library.”

By now, after many experiences, the six-person team from the Landon Family had beco quite cohesive.

Even David no longer felt the distance he once had, often participating in team activities, and the mbers would also frequently exchange and learn from one another.

Leonard looked at the bruises on the face of the dark-skinned boy, feigning slight surprise, although he understood what had happened, he asked, “Have you been practicing with the senior students again?”

“Mhm.”

David spoke casually but explained further, “During today’s combat lesson, a few second-year guys provoked , so we had a fight.”

It seed that the battle had been very fruitful for him, as his eyes sparkled with an undeniably keen light while he spoke of it.

As for the injuries on his body, he didn’t care at all.

“Hehe…”

Leonard chuckled, not surprised in the least.

Their team’s single “S-Tier” rating from the opening ceremony was too eye-catching, making them the star team of the entire Royal Academy.

In the Royal Academy, filled with young, spirited nobility, lacking enough background ant that fa only brought endless trouble.

However, the strength of the small team was there for all to see, and those of the sa tier contemplating a challenge had to consider their own strength.

As a result, many of the challengers were second-year students from the academy.

And since David was a slave, he was challenged the most.

His opponents fought ruthlessly, and his responses were just as rciless.

The outco was that even if he won the fight, he would be severely beaten by the noble guards under various pretexts.

Almost every day it was like this.

If he wasn’t fighting, he was on his way to a fight.

Therefore, David’s injuries never had the chance to heal.

But Leonard didn’t see this as a bad thing.

It looked like a beating, but on the other hand, where else could he find so many talents to spar with?

The painful experiences were rare and valuable lessons for David’s ntal and physical strength.

The other team mbers were in a similar situation.

On the contrary, Leonard, because he spent all his ti either in class or in the library, had no ti to deal with those people and so he was the most free from disturbance.

Just as he was thinking about this, David scratched the back of his head with a sowhat embarrassed expression, saying, “Allen, I have a question to ask you. Lately, when I’ve been practicing the Breathing thod, I’ve noticed that the flow of Curse Power isn’t smooth, as if there’s a blockage, and what follows feels weak… Do you know what’s going on?”

“Well…”

Leonard certainly knew he had co with a question.

Slaves were not entitled to any privileges of the Royal Academy, including the right to enter the library to read, nor could they have ntors like other students.

Thus, David almost always audited various classes at the academy.

If he understood the lesson, that was fine; if he didn’t, he could only ponder over it by himself.

Fortunately, his teammates were not stingy with their help and would occasionally explain things to him.

But there was a disparity in their professions, and not everyone knew the specifics about being an Air Skill Master.

And Leonard’s “Scholar” Profession Card was exactly what was needed in such circumstances.

Moreover, Leonard, just like David, practiced a Breathing thod derived from the sa source—Gluttony!

Even though the Demon God Secret Skill, as a prize from the academy, ca with a confidentiality agreent prohibiting him from sharing with others, Leonard’s understanding of the Gluttony Secret thod far surpassed that of basic mantras.

Leonard imdiately recognized David’s problem, but without being too obvious, he pondered for a mont, then said, “It might be because you’ve just advanced and the basic mantra is not enough to satisfy the expanded ridians of your Profession Card. I’ve also been practicing the Breathing thod recently and ca across sothing in a book… Ah, that’s the one, ‘Explanation of the Mysteries of Air Skill’ and ‘Master Morton on the Basics of the Breathing thod’, where this situation is explained in detail… Here, take a look at these.”

Saying so, he produced a thick, gold-stamped Classic Book.

David looked at the Classic Books in front of him with anticipation, his expression even more sheepish, “This…”

Although it was now generally recognized in the small team that Leonard, who spent all his ti in the library, was a “Master of all fields.”

Being a Scholar, whose path was one of mastery in many fields, even what he didn’t know probably could be found in so related Classic Books.

Just like the current situation.

But always troubling others these days didn’t sit well with David either.

Leonard looked at David’s uneasy expression and smiled, “Since it’s just a basic book from the academy, go ahead and take it. Returning it to the library a few days later won’t make much difference to .”

Hearing this, David didn’t know what to say, hesitated for a mont, but still said, “Then I’ll take a look first. I’ll return it to you in a couple of days.”

“Mhm.”

Leonard nodded, smiling, and waved goodbye.

In the retreating figure of that dark-skinned boy, he saw the shadow of Barre Shepherd during his youth, the sa devotion to Martial Arts, the sa blunt and clumsy nature.

What David didn’t know was that the book wasn’t sothing Leonard had happened to borrow and had on him by chance.

Leonard had realized earlier that after David’s advancent, he was bound to encounter these issues in Air Skill.

Since Teacher Barre Shepherd was not around, he took it upon himself to offer guidance to this nominal junior brother and had borrowed the book to have it with him.
