Immortal Creed
Chapter 168: Learning Magic
"Your talent is even higher than I imagined."
Seeing the constantly spinning Wind Element energy mass in Liens's hand, the Dean couldn't help but exclaim with emotion.
Because Liens had never shown his true strength to the Dean in reality, and Nimophila had not spoken out.
Therefore, the Dean had previously only regarded Liens as a Knight who had completed purification, and did not know that he had long mastered the ability of "Element Blessing."
"Since you have already completed the most difficult step, the Great Knight realm for you is just a matter of accumulation."
"It's normal for you to want to learn magic at this stage."
"Compared to Knights, magic studies elements more systematically. Learning magic corresponding to your own attribute can effectively improve your understanding and control of elements."
"However, I still need to remind you not to excessively neglect the accumulation of your own elements because of learning magic."
"The higher the realm, the easier it is to comprehend the mysteries of elements."
The Dean continued.
The Dean's tone softened a lot… Seeing Liens's current realm, he no longer stopped Liens from learning magic.
He just reminded Liens to distinguish between primary and secondary.
"Understood, thank you for your concern, Dean. I will pay attention to that."
"May I ask what kind of tuition fee I need to pay to learn magic from you?"
Liens asked the Dean.
"No need for tuition… It's a fortunate thing for me to be able to teach a genius."
"If you truly become a Legend in the future, I might even be able to bask in your glory and make an appearance in the biographies written for you by the world."
The Dean shook his head and chuckled softly.
"Alright, wait for me here for a moment. I'll go find some textbooks."
"The Magical Guidance Nation's beginner magic textbooks are very well-compiled and suitable for those new to magic."
After speaking, the Dean walked with somewhat stumbling steps towards the bed.
Liens watched the Dean slowly walk to the bedside table and gently pat the cabinet with his hand.
Then, a small magic array appeared, but it vanished in an instant.
Subsequently, the Dean opened the cabinet and took out a thick book from inside.
How thick was it?
Liens measured it with his excellent eyesight; its thickness was probably comparable to the length of a brick. Enjoying the story? Discover more on *.
Yes, length, not the thickness of a brick.
"Bang!"
The Dean somewhat strenuously placed the book on his desk; the sound of a heavy object falling echoed from the desk.
Liens could see the ink bottle also on the desk beginning to wobble unsteadily because of this sudden "disaster."
Fortunately, he was quick-witted and swiftly stepped forward to steady the ink bottle.
Otherwise, the documents on the desk would have been ruined.
Seeing this scene, Liens had a momentary regret about his decision to learn magic.
This thickness… who knew how many brain cells it would kill him.
"Sigh, I'm getting old, even holding this little bit is becoming difficult."
The Dean pounded his lower back a few times and sighed.
"What? Regretting it?"
The Dean saw the difficult expression on Liens's face and teased him.
"Not at all… but do I only need to finish this book?"
Liens shook his head, reined in the surprise on his face, and then asked.
"This is just the Magical Guidance Nation's beginner magic learning material for beginners; there will naturally be more in-depth ones later."
"However, for you right now, this book is sufficient. I suggest you learn the later knowledge after you break through to Great Knight."
"Besides some beginner magic learning, this book also includes corresponding Element structure analysis and the basic principles of magic arrays."
"It can be said that whether for building a foundation or practical application, it is an excellent introductory magic textbook."
"Of course, since you don't have magic power and can't use magic arrays, the content you need to focus on is only Wind magic and Element structure analysis."
The Dean explained to Liens.
"Wind, huh…"
Liens murmured softly.
This did not come as a surprise to him.
A moment's thought would reveal how a Wind Knight could possibly drive magic of other elements.
"Oh, and Meditation."
"The main function of Meditation is to guide spiritual power to perceive elements and refine them into magic power."
"Although this main function is useless to you, it also has the secondary effect of nourishing the mind and calming the spirit; you can also learn it."
"A strong spirit also makes it easier to comprehend the mysteries of elements."
Suddenly remembering something, the Dean began to open the introductory magic textbook, turned to a certain page, and pointed to the text on it as he spoke to Liens.
"Speaking of which, Meditation was very precious in the past, especially advanced Meditation."
"Wanderers could only obtain it by joining various forces or magic families."
"Although it wasn't impossible without Meditation, the methods of refining elements discovered by individuals could never compare to the accumulation of an entire power."
"This led to the fact that scattered mages in the past had both lower quantity and quality of magic power than mages from established powers, and their strength was naturally suppressed."
"This situation was broken by the Magical Guidance Nation over a hundred years ago."
"They directly published a relatively excellent and not too difficult Meditation method they had researched, in the form of a textbook, to every person learning magic."
"And they frequently updated it, continuously reducing its learning difficulty without lowering the effectiveness of Meditation."
"This kind of broad-mindedness, this kind of spirit, this kind of attitude of teaching without discrimination, it's no wonder the Magical Guidance Nation has become increasingly powerful in recent years."
"It can be said that when it comes to contributions to the development of magic today, the Magical Guidance Nation accounts for at least half."
The Dean praised the distant Magical Guidance Nation.
Liens didn't care about the greatness of the Magical Guidance Nation, which was an unknown distance away, but he also couldn't directly interrupt the Dean's speech.
So, after the Dean finished his praise, he immediately asked:
"Dean, where should I start learning?"
"Young man, always so eager… Because you are a Knight, for you, the most important thing is to understand Element structure."
"You should be able to see the Element structure in magic, right?"
"If you couldn't, it would be impossible for you to comprehend 'Element Blessing' at this stage."
A fireball rose in the Dean's hand as he spoke to Liens.
"The reason I initially stopped you from learning magic…"
"Was because if a Knight couldn't perceive Element structure, learning magic would be twice the effort for half the result, or even more difficult."
"Normal mages, with the help of magic power and magic arrays, find both learning and casting spells relatively much simpler."
"I previously thought you were just a Knight who had completed the purification state, so I didn't want you to waste your time on this."
"However, now that you have comprehended 'Element Blessing,' learning will be much simpler."
"Of course, simple is relative; you won't be able to skip any of the things you need to learn."
"First, read the part about Element structure analysis in the textbook. If you don't understand anything, just ask me directly."
"After you finish reading, I will give you a test to check your learning progress."
The Dean marked the learning content for Liens in the table of contents.
Seeing that 'Element structure analysis' alone contained hundreds of pages, Liens instantly felt his hair sending him a warning.
