Aur calmly took a bite of grilled pork at, imdiately experiencing its juicy texture filling his mouth.
"Young master, how is it?" Lucy asked, smiling. "This is pork nurtured by mana. Although it isn't as good as tier one beast at, it is still tasty."
"Ho," Aur exhaled warmly, enjoying the delicious al. However, his focus wasn't here; instead, it was on his ntal space after he had broken through.
Unlike in his previous state, when the entire ntal space was filled with colourless mana, there wasn't a single drop of any mana left—it was completely empty and vacant.
If Aur looked at the barriers of his ntal space, he would notice a significant change: they had beco stronger and thicker.
Suddenly, Aur willed it, and a strand of mana ca from the outside, entering his ntal space, where it started to be slowly refined.
Aur patiently waited. Since he wasn't in ditation, the process took several tis longer than necessary.
Although one could still gather mana from the outside when not cultivating, the process was at least ten tis slower than when fully focused.
Even if he didn't do anything in the outside world without ditating, the speed of refining the mana from the outside was still sluggish.
Only when ditating could one focus on the mana, and its efficiency increased to a terrifying degree.
While Aur was contemplating, a small drop of light blue mana materialised in his ntal space. Though just a single drop, it caused the spells floating in his ntal space to rotate, as if excited by its presence.
Curiously, Aur infused these drops of light blue mana into his wizard hand spell: his vital spell.
Instantly, Aur's eyes began to glow with a pattern in the real world.
With shock, he suddenly looked towards Lucy.
Lucy was startled by the abrupt change in Aur, and she slowly felt her body becoming weightless, as if she were floating in the air. Aur appeared smaller in her eyes.
"No, I'm in mid-air!?" Lucy thought, her eyes widening as she looked down at the ground.
Bang!
Suddenly, her head planted into the floor as the force that lifted her vanished.
"Ouch," she grimaced in pain.
Aur's eyes slowly stopped glowing as he looked at Lucy, who had planted her head on the ground.
His expression was one of astonishnt, not because she had fallen, but because a single drop of blue mana had been able to enhance his spell to such a terrifying extent.
Previously, the spell could only lift living beings with vitality weighing up to 10 kg, but now Aur could lift an entire normal human and sustain it for so ti.
The application of the spell had completely changed!
Since this was a tier one spell, its full potential could only be realised when he reached the tier one wizard realm.
Aur sighed in amazent. This transformation had turned his vital spell, Wizard's Hand, from useless to extrely effective in combat.
"Young master, what happened?" Lucy slowly stood up from the ground, touching her head with a pained expression.
"Nothing, nothing," Aur replied lightly, patting her head with a smile.
"How long has it been since I went into seclusion?" he suddenly asked.
"Young master, you have been in seclusion for a year now, and it is already the 8012th AC (Aurelian calendar) now," Lucy inford him.
"Hmm," Aur nodded silently. Although his seclusion might have seed short, ti passed swiftly when he was imrsed in his training.
"Young master, this is a strict order from the academy that once you have beco a tier one wizard, you are to go to the village leader's office," Lucy continued, her eyes filled with curiosity as she looked at Aur.
"What is it?" Aur asked casually.
"Have you really beco a tier one wizard, young master?" Lucy inquired.
Aur fell silent for a mont before releasing his presence. "What do you think?" he asked, his tone serious.
Lucy felt the air thicken around her as an invisible ntal pressure weighed on her mind. Her breath beca laboured, and sweat ford on her forehead from the intensity of Aur's presence.
"Have you really reached the tier one wizard realm!?" Lucy exclaid, startled by the revelation.
Hearing about it and witnessing it firsthand were entirely different experiences.
Aur casually withdrew his presence before leaving the place, his expression thoughtful.
"Wait for , young master," Lucy called out, her eyes still reflecting the shock she felt.
Aur had managed to consu 20 kilograms of grilled pork at all by himself without Lucy even noticing. As they left, she couldn't help but grumble inwardly about his appetite.
Quickly, Aur and Lucy arrived at Noah's office.
"Halt," the two guards at the entrance exclaid, their expressions startled as they looked at Aur.
Aur's white hair had grown even longer, and with his bulky physique, he resembled a wild man. However, his refined temperant and neat attire distinguished him from a primitive caveman.
"I am Aur," he announced with a smile, presenting his badge.
"Eh?" The guard was a little surprised upon hearing the na and looked at the badge to confirm its authenticity.
"Have you really reached the tier one wizard realm?" the other guard, who seed rather inexperienced, curiously asked.
"Shut up!" The guard who was verifying the authenticity of Aur's badge exclaid, his face turning pale.
"Please," he pleaded, looking earnestly at Aur.
"It's fine," Aur magnanimously reassured him, shaking his hand.
After checking the badge and confirming Aur's identity, he respectfully returned it to him.
Under the warm and respectful gaze of the guard, Aur was guided to enter. Only after Aur had entered did the guard sigh with relief, still feeling so lingering fear.
The young guard who had asked the question curiously looked at his seniors with a questioning expression.
"What are you looking at for, you young brat?" the guard's expression turned stern as he simred with sheathed rage.
"Why are you such an angry old man, Albert, and I am curious why you are so respectful towards Aur?" the young guard asked.
"You don't know?" Albert's expression softened slightly upon hearing this.
"How could I know? I just ca to guard here last month," the young guard replied, his expression turning into a frown. "Even if that guy Aur turns out to be a tier one wizard, so what? He can't touch us. We are the guards of the leader of the village," he added with a hint of arrogance in his voice.
Albert looked at him with a deep gaze.
"How old is Aur? And he should be in the third year if we count his seclusion right now," Albert said, letting his words sink into the young guard's mind. However, the young guard beca even more confused.
"Do you know that in the history of the academy, there are only a few people who could be counted on one hand who have actually reached the tier one wizard realm during the academy's five-year run?"
"This!?" The young guard's eyes widened with realisation when he heard Albert's reminder, and his heart turned cold.
If Aur could reach this level, he wouldn't be a simple guy.
Even causing him so displeasure might incur his slight eerie. With his status, if it was confird that he had beco a tier one wizard, then a simple word from him could spell trouble for him.
"Thank you, Albert," the young guard said, his voice filled with gratitude.
Albert simply nodded silently.
