Chapter 44 Increased Power

After parting with the old priest, Shade is outside three streets according to the map , found a three-storey gray building for rental carriage company offices. The main business here is to book carriage services in advance for important trips, but there are also carriages that can carry cargo.

Shade knew that his books were best kept out of the ordinary person, so he specifically asked the driver if he would look at the goods.

"We are a professional rental carriage company. Even if you pull a corpse, no, even if you pull a whole car of corpses, as long as you don't leave any traces, it has nothing to do with us at all."

The middle-aged accountant who took the money from Shade drooped his eyelids and emphasized:
“We are very professional.”

The carriage of goods is far better than the carriage of people. Much cheaper, even if it also carries Shade back. When Shade personally moved the books into his home at 6 St. Teresa Square, he spent less than 8 shillings in total.

Although Room 1 on the second floor used to look very large, after moving in so many books, I can feel that the study space is not enough. Shade controlled the curious orange cat Mia not to let it touch his book, while thinking that he had time, must develop the remaining space of the house.

He didn't go out again that day, and the exaggerated foggy weather outside made it unsuitable to go out, so obediently and honestly, he looked at the books he bought for 50 pounds at home, and he was not consuming enough money. Know the price of gas and steam.

Most of the first-year courses in Ring Warlock only involve knowledge, not extraordinary, so most of them are memorized exam subjects. As a foreigner who has gone through a complete education system, Shade is very good at this and believes that he is confident that he will finish most of the first grade courses in the examination season at the end of this year.

As for the practical courses, he is very curious about strength and believes in his self-learning ability, so he doesn't think it will take too long to finish those courses.

Now that he has obtained the textbook, Shade is most concerned about [Spell] and [Mystic Art], these two are the way to directly gain power. Although he kept the doctor's warning in mind, Shade still believed that he needed to have the most basic self-protection.

As a first-year ring warlock, St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy did not directly mention it in the two courses "Ring Warlock Basic Course-Mystic Art" and "Ring Warlock Basic Course-Conjuration" There are too many Mystic Art and spells, and a few kinds of Mystic Art and spells, and it is common to see the effect.

The St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy is a first-year correspondence ring warlock, offering three types of spells and four types of Mystic Art for free.

Free 【Spell】has a standard system, no matter which Academy student is, the first spell to come into contact with is the same.

The recommended spells to learn and use first are [Ignite], [Call Water] and [Move Object], which are the most primordial manifestations of mysterious power since Ancient Times, and have More advanced [Spells] can be extended.

In addition, the learning methods of these three spells do not require too many materials, and when casting spells, they do not require casting materials. They are the most convenient spells. Shade learned and mastered them in half a night. ——

"Ha!"

He stared at the newspaper in his hand, and the newspaper finally gave off a wisp of burning blue smoke, slapping the pages on the other side of the newspaper to play The orange kitten ran into Shade's arms in fright.

"Ha!"

The right hand kept shaking the empty water glass, and the inner wall of the water glass actually became wet. Shade touched the sweat on his forehead and put the water glass back on the table, but before he could check it, Mia, the soft orange cat in her arms, jumped towards the glass curiously.

"Ha!"

He looked towards the water cup with his eyes squinting blood. The cup was on the table and moved back automatically. The orange cat that was running towards the cup changed direction in the air, and the little paw kicked the table and jumped back into Shade's arms again, looking startled again.

This is a timid cat whose ferocity towards strangers is just a means of protecting himself.

The [Mystic Art] provided by the St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy for the first grade is based on the core spirit rune of the ring warlock.

Shade's innate talent is quite good. Although [Time and Space] and [Silver Moon] are rare, they are not biased. In the basic course - Mystic Art, the suggestion given by Academy is more inclined to the related Mystic Art of [Silver Moon]. After all, for those who have just entered mysticism, [Space-Time] spirit rune is both dangerous and complicated.

Therefore, among the four free Mystic Art provided by Academy, the Mystic Art related to [Time and Space] only has [Perception Time], which means that Shade has the ability to know his own time point at any time.

Although this Mystic Art may not sound very useful, it is quite troublesome to learn. As the basic Mystic Art provided by Academy, the materials required for learning are naturally provided by Academy. Among them, the century-old pocket watch is easy to find, but the strange plant "four-leaf clock flower", although the Academy has a nursery planting, but the picking process is very troublesome, so Shade can get it from the doctor next month.

As for Mystic Art related to [Silver Moon], Academy provides three items-

[Sindia's Silver Moon Gift], under the rays of light of Silver Moon Gain the ability to heal, which means you can heal yourself as well as others. This is Mystic Art that can only be learned and used by holders of the [Silver Moon] spirit rune, and is only available at night.

It can be seen from the naming method that this is Mystic Art developed by Warlock of Academy, so the name is used as a prefix. If the [Silver Moon Brightness] invented by Shade is strong enough, he can name it [Shade's Silver Moon Brightness].

【Moon Shadow's Illusion Technique】, on any night, use the power of moonlight to perform some simple Illusion Technique. Any bearer of a spirit rune related to the moon can learn this Mystic Art, but depending on the spirit rune and the user, the Illusion Technique also has slight differences and is also only used at night.

【Silver Moon Slash】, pull out a silver moonlight in the air to attack the enemy, which has a very good damage effect on the enemy with Enlightenment and Blasphemy elements. This Mystic Art can only be learned by the holder of [Silver Moon], but holders of other moons, stars and even the sun concept spirit rune have similar Mystic Art, but the effect is different.

This is the only Attack Type Mystic Art among the three Mystic Art.

The night sky of this world has three moons, silver, yellow and red. The three moons have different meanings in mysticism. Among them, the red moon is related to flesh and blood and reproduction, the yellow moon is "moonlight" and "guide", and the silver moon is synonymous with "Guardian", "holy" and "mysterious". .

Therefore, Mystic Art, which is related to the concept of silver moon, is different from other moons. If Shade's spirit rune is a higher-level concept like [Moon], he can actually learn more Mystic Art.

The three Mystic Art items are specially selected by the Academy, and they are respectively biased towards treatment, Illusion Technique and attack, which can be said to be very comprehensive.

And the learning materials are still provided with the book, which are the mercury-like liquid "Moonlight of the Silver Moon" in a large thumb glass bottle, and a silver one embroidered with an unknown old sacred emblem. The silk cloth, and a silver knife with only the blade part left, the blade part is engraved with the crescent moon.

But it is not possible to learn with materials. Shade also needs to prepare the corresponding environment and master the corresponding spells. These can't be solved in one day, so as of this night, he just learned [Silver Moon Slash].

The learning requirement of [Silver Moon Slash] only requires the ring warlock to be able to attach the silver moon's moonlight to the broken silver knife, which is quite simple for the current Shade.

He repeats this process under the moon at night, making the knife shorter each time the moonlight is attached. When the silver moonlight is attached to the 13th time, the broken blade in the light completely disappears. Shade looked at his shimmering hands, and with clear comprehension in his heart, he learned this Attack Type Mystic Art by himself.
