Menon is an anomaly among magicians.
The vast majority of magicians major in attack magic. Even if they minor in protection, it is to protect themselves on the battlefield or in battles with others.
Menon, on the other hand, prefers to seek the essence of magic. At the same time, he is not interested in destructive magic. Instead, he prefers to create some strange magical creations.
For example, magic fountain, magic rainbow, etc.
This kind of magic that can bring happiness to people is the goal he pursues.
Such behavior, in the eyes of his teachers and friends, was simply deviant. If a mage doesn't pursue high damage and lethality, and doesn't pursue powerful power, why would he be called a mage
Menon still insisted on his own path, and because of this, he and his friends drifted apart.
While he was figuring out how to focus his magic, his friends were learning how to make their spells more lethal.
While he was figuring out how to reveal his magic to ordinary people without hurting them, his friends were already making great achievements.
If Menon hadn't come from a good family background and had come through the back door, he wouldn't have been 'qualified' to stand in the Magic Association at all.
The Magic Association is a gathering place for elites in France, and there are a large number of fellow magicians here.
But Menon found no one who had the same idea as him.
In the Magic Association, all his peers except him are pursuing more powerful power.
This made Menon feel particularly disappointed, isolated and lonely.
Especially when his former friends began to oppose him, he felt that no one in this world could understand him.
What's wrong with bringing happiness to people
What good is there in fighting and killing
At this moment, two new magics appeared in the Magic Temple.
Oil production and water production.
Both magics were created by a man named Roland.
Although it seems from these two magics, the author's original intention is still to strengthen the magician himself.
The oil-making technique makes it easier for magicians to make money, and the water-making technique... Judging from the amount that can only quench thirst, it is also prepared for mages.
Let the mage have more money in the early stage and have more flexible survivability in the wild.
This mage named Roland is essentially creating magic for magicians, not for all the public and all intelligent beings.
After understanding this, Menon's excitement subsided slightly.
This man named Roland still pursues powerful power like other magicians, but he pursues it more comprehensively.
However, Menon paid more attention to this man named Roland and his invention of oil-making and water-making techniques.
After a few months, Menon gradually forgot the name Roland in the depths of his memory.
But he didn't expect that the other party would actually appear in front of him today, and he was also known as the Golden Son.
Menon was very excited. Although in his opinion, Roland's essence still seemed to be the pursuit of powerful power, but the other party was willing to invent some unique spells, so he probably understood him.
"Why are you interested in this magic fountain?" Menon asked curiously: "After I made this thing, most people said that I focused my energy on crooked doors and ramps."
Roland pointed to the shell structure of the magic fountain: "This thing is a magic circle, which can turn the magic flow into a phenomenon and make it visible to ordinary people. But I don't understand how you can make the magic flow flow like water. Logically speaking, it is impossible for magic elements to produce this kind of drooping water column based on the siphon principle, because they are not converted into magic water flow."
Menon's eyes suddenly lit up: "You can see clearly! Are you also pursuing the essence of magic?"
Roland nodded: "You can say that."
"Come on, let me show you my latest research results." Menon grabbed Roland and walked to his room.
His room is not far from here.
After entering, I saw that there were drawings everywhere inside.
As we all know, blank paper is very expensive, and the fact that Menon has so many drawings in his room shows that he is extremely wealthy.
"Look, this is what I have researched, about the conditions and methods for the resonance of magic elements."
"This is how the magic element changes its properties in a short period of time, and then produces a rainbow-like effect."
"And this, my favorite work, is the control of the flow of pure magic elements. The magic fountain is an extension of this concept."
Roland held the three drawings in his hand and looked at them slowly.
Menon was not in a hurry. He sat on a chair nearby and looked at Roland expectantly.
This is Menon's show off, and also Menon's test.
If Roland can understand these things, then Menon will feel that he is a fellow-minded person.
So Menon was not in a hurry. He crossed his legs and waited patiently.
These three things are his masterpieces. Even if the legend comes, he will probably be able to look at each picture for half an hour before he can understand them clearly.
Roland's level is not yet that of a master, so... no matter how smart he is, it will probably take him five or six hours to fully understand it.
However... half an hour later, Roland finished flipping through the three drawings, and then he was thoughtful.
Did you understand it so quickly
Menon didn’t quite believe it!
It can't be an act.
Then Roland flicked his fingers, and the magic around him began to appear, and then formed small curved and interlaced flowing strings of water.
When Menon saw this, he couldn't help but jump up: "You actually mastered it? So fast?"
"That's because your notes are well written and clear and easy to understand."
Menon clicked his tongue. He felt that he was being shown off, and said unhappily: "It seems that your foundation is very good, and your research has almost reached this point."
"Indeed." Roland nodded.
He uses numbers to analyze magic, so his progress is quite fast.
But no matter how fast he is, there is a limit. After all, it has only been a little over two years since he entered the game.
Again, although the depth of learning magic is enough, the breadth is not enough.
"After seeing your three drawings, I should come up with something, otherwise I would be embarrassed."
Roland thought for a while and took out the magic sword making technology.
Because Menon likes to make things, he naturally had to do what he liked.
Then this thing was an eye-opener for Menon.
Because apart from Mordenkainen, Roland is the only one who knows this thing.
This was his first time seeing it.
After telling Menon some key points and letting him learn and experience them himself, Roland left.
Menon didn't give it away either. He was completely immersed in the ocean of learning.
Roland first returned to the pastry shop and found that Andonara was not here, so he returned to the room prepared for him by the Magic Association. After opening the door with a card, he saw Andonara busy inside.
Cleaning the floor and laying out the bedding.
Seeing Roland come back, she said sweetly: "I'll help you make dinner after I clean up this place."
Roland has become accustomed to Andonara being a good wife. He feels that if he continues like this, he will probably become a useless person.
He watched Andonara walking around, and then asked, "How was the conversation with Ms. Sharon?"
"She always wants to take me to see the eldest princess, I don't know why." Andonara said with a bitter smile: "That woman was beaten up by me, wouldn't it be annoying to go see her! But Sharon's expression and tone were both She’s very sincere, and I don’t feel any malice in her, she probably wants me to reconcile with the eldest princess Stephanie.”
Roland was surprised: "Sharon is so warm-hearted, why?"
"Who knows!" Andonara shook her head helplessly.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Roland turned around, opened the door and saw that it was the Great Elder Elford.
"It seems that you have found the correct answer." Elford said happily: "As expected of the elites from our Red Magic Tower, you have not lost face."
Roland accepted Elford's compliment with a smile, and then asked: "Great Elder, do you have any orders for you to come here?"
"Good thing, come to the dinner party with us." Elford smiled: "The royal family invites us tonight, and you can get to know a lot of big shots."
Roland thought for a moment: "I think it's better to stay in the room and study magic."
"Aren't you interested in a large number of ladies and beauties?" Elford's mysterious smile contained a trace of vulgarity: "There are many."
"Is she as beautiful as my Anna?" Roland turned sideways and pointed at Andonara who was busy in the room.
Elford shrugged: "It is estimated that only one or two can have the appearance and figure of the legendary great swordsman."
"There are actually so many one or two." Roland seemed a little surprised.
Elford felt that his teeth were sore, as if he had just squeezed a dozen lemons.
As a last resort, he had to resort to a killer weapon: "But if you don't attend the dinner, how can I introduce you to the big shots in the Temple of Light? In that case, you may lose the opportunity to enter the Great Library of Light."
"Okay, I'll go." Roland stood up straight.
I knew you would be like this. Elford gave Roland a roll of his eyes: "Follow me, and call your great swordsman queen by the way."
A few minutes later, Roland and Elford walked out of the Magic Association.
Andonara wore a white dress that was relatively easy to move around and looked behind the two of them.
The world outside the Magic Association is full of square houses made of white rocks.
Bustling crowds of people walk on large, bustling streets.
Erfurt pointed to the towering castle in the distance and smiled: "That's the palace there, and the banquet is also held inside. We don't have a carriage, so if we want to go to the palace, we have to find a way by ourselves. For example, the simplest way for us magicians is That’s it: fly.”
Elford laughed, used the wind technique to fly directly into the sky, and then disappeared into the towering background of the palace.
It turns out that the Temple of Light does not restrict flying.
Even if flying skills were not restricted, Roland would still be too lazy to fly now.
Running away alone would be more romantic than walking slowly on the street with Andonara.
Besides, it was still early and there was still a long way to go before the sun set. Roland didn't believe that the palace would start the banquet so soon.
Then someone actually slapped him in the face.
A very beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes suddenly announced that the banquet had officially begun when the sun was still more than half way down.
Roland almost couldn't enter the banquet venue.
Until Elford came out and took him inside.
