Buzz!
A bright white light burst out directly from the ring on Leylin's hand.
The dazzling white light even temporarily blinded Baron Jonas, who was caught off guard.
"Haha... very good! Child! Leylin! You did a great job!"
When Baron Jonas rubbed his red and tearful eyes and finally broke free from the blinding effect of the light spell, what he saw was a mage who was already a little overwhelmed with excitement.
By the gods! Jonas rubbed his eyes again, looking at Ernest in disbelief.
Is this the mage he knew before? As we all know, mages are also representatives of wisdom and calmness, and there are very few things that can make their faces lose their composure, let alone such a state of being so excited that they are at a loss.
"Ernest... you mean... Leylin, did he pass the test?"
But Jonas couldn't care less about other thoughts, and from the other party's expression, he suddenly thought of a possibility.
"Pass? Aha! Of course! His talent, I'm afraid he can be ranked even in the Mage Association. Even my mentor will be jealous that I have accepted such an excellent apprentice..."
Ernest slowly calmed down, and said seriously to Jonas:
"Jonas! My friend! I have to tell you very responsibly that your child—Leylin, has an incomparable talent on the path of a mage! Even now, his mental strength has far surpassed his peers. People, as long as they are properly guided, I believe that he may even break through the realm of the archmage, and even... "
Ernest's body began to twitch unconsciously again.
"Okay! Alright! So Ernest, are you willing to accept the boy as an apprentice?"
"Of course! Why not?" Ernest has now regarded Leylin as his student, and I am afraid that even if Jonas is unwilling, he will forcefully act.
"That's great, I'm going to announce the good news to others and have a celebration!"
Jonas' face was filled with red light.
The young master of the Faolan family was accepted as an apprentice by a powerful spellcaster. This incident will definitely greatly enhance the status and influence of the Faolan family in the kingdom.
Jonas was already impatient, "Then, do you need any procedures or tuition fees for Leylin's apprentice ceremony?"
"We can talk about this later, please give us a little private time now..."
Ernest waved his hand politely, and an invisible force directly pushed Jonas out, and the door closed automatically.
"Don't be surprised, this is just the effect of [Mage's Hand], a mage's trick!"
Ernest turned around, with what he thought was the kindest smile on his face, comforting the panicked little guy in front of him.
"Yes... yes, sir!"
Leylin shrunk his body back in fear, but there was a hidden deepness in his eyes: "The chip, has it been recorded?"
[The opponent's spell-casting process has been recorded, and the data is being stored! ] The chip quickly gave a response.
"Very good! But, this kind of magic ability?" Leylin clearly felt the difference in the other party. The almost instantaneous effect is a skill that many senior wizards need to practice for a long time in the wizarding world.
"No! It's not the ability to cast spells instantly. This gives me the feeling that the other party has prepared the spells long ago, stored them, and then launched them with specific gestures and commands..."
After all, Leylin himself was also an expert in spells, so he immediately saw through the operation of this model.
"Although the principle is not very clear, does it seem that this is the way of casting spells in the world of the gods? Compared with the world of wizards, there seem to be many differences..."
"This...is this a spell?" The immature childish voice was trembling, and there was a little indescribable curiosity.
"Yes! This is magic! Just move your fingers, you can arouse the power of nature!"
Ernest rubbed his hands, and a flame emerged out of thin air, turning into a bird, a villain, and many other shapes, and finally scattered suddenly, turning into a small firework.
Seeing that he had successfully aroused the little guy's curiosity and envy, a smug smile appeared on the corner of Ernest's mouth.
Yes, with a slight movement of your fingers, you can seduce a powerful force. You don't need to be like warriors and other physical professions, as if a fool is bleeding and sweating, full of vulgarity and violence.
Moreover, even the lowest-level mage can obtain a lot of income by copying scrolls and participating in alchemy and enchanting.
Compared with the kind of profession that low-level people would choose, it is obvious that the mysterious and noble profession of mage is more able to attract children's hearts.
Ernest thought very well about himself. Of course, the horrible cost and harsh talent conditions in the process of mage learning were selectively ignored by the other party.
"So... can I become a mage?"
Finally, Leylin's nervous words came from Ernest's ear, which made Ernest feel as if he was floating on the clouds.
"Of course! My child! You have the talent to be an excellent mage! And, I—Ernest, the Burning Shadow, am willing to be your guide on the mage's path!"
Ernest tried to look serious.
"However... I still have to remind you that although you have an amazing talent, you must also put in far more effort than ordinary people. The path of a mage does not allow the slightest slack..."
Ernest put on a serious face, and started to enlighten Leylin as a mage...
Soon, the news that Master Leylin of the Faolan family was favored by a powerful mage and became a mage apprentice began to spread throughout the port.
In the world of the gods, mages often represent powerful, mysterious, and irresistible forces.
Faolan has a mage apprentice who is very talented, which means that this family is likely to have a powerful mage in the future!
This subtle influence immediately caused many people to ignore the fact that the other party was just a new noble. Many old nobles began to accept the existence of the Faolan family, and even planned to throw an olive branch to the Faolan family.
Baron Jonas cleverly used this opportunity to gain momentum, won more benefits for the Faolan family, and greatly broadened the family's living and development environment.
Of course, all of this has nothing to do with Leylin, after all, he is still too young to participate in family affairs.
The only thing related to him was probably attending a banquet with Ernest and being blessed by everyone in the fief.
Last time, the bishop of Oghma, the God of Knowledge, Tablis, came here in person and expressed his regret.
Strong spiritual strength not only represents talent on the mage path, but also means that if Leylin can accept the teachings of the God of Knowledge and follow them wholeheartedly, his path to priesthood will definitely be smoother, and even faster than other priests promotion.
Now that such a good seed is taken away by a mage, Tabris will naturally feel very sorry.
Unfortunately, he would never know that it was impossible for Leylin to devote himself to the God of Knowledge, and it was impossible for him to obtain even one level of priesthood.
After the master-student relationship was formally established, Leylin's mage classes began.
Yes, under the enthusiasm of Jonas and his wife, Ernest decided to stay in the manor and complete the enlightenment of Leylin as a mage.
In fact, the other party was originally a mage who lived in no fixed place, and there was no such thing as a mage tower—according to the information Leylin secretly collected, it mainly relied on the other party's unconscious disclosure. The level is only about nine levels, which is still far from the fifteenth level [Great Mage], let alone the [Legendary Mage] after that.
To build a mage tower, except for those favored by the heavens who rely on huge forces, even the great mage must accumulate hundreds of years of time.
According to the malicious thoughts in Leylin's heart, this Ernest probably has no other place to go, so he can only eat and drink in the Faolan family.
Of course, even a ninth-level mage was already a great figure in the Faolan Territory. Therefore, he and the Jonas couple could be regarded as hit it off and wishful thinking.
The magic class was held in the morning, and Leylin's cultural teacher Anthony could only come in the afternoon.
As for Jacopo, who was supposed to teach Leylin's warrior abilities, he could only be resigned depressed. If it wasn't for Leylin's excuse of exercising his body and taking half an hourglass hour for training every day, he might have no choice but to continue patrolling the port. up.
"The so-called magic is actually a gift from the gods to mages. The magic net created by the great goddess of the magic net, Mystra, is the root of all magic..."
In the first class, when he heard Ernest read it out in such a serious manner, Leylin almost spit out a mouthful of water.
"Spell? A gift from the gods? And the magic net?"
"Yes!" Ernest's face was very serious, and it could be seen that this was what he was thinking in his heart.
"I see!" Leylin nodded seriously, but he couldn't stop laughing in his heart.
"Obviously it's my own strength, but I have to put shackles on it, how should I evaluate it..."
Through Ernest's narration, Leylin's understanding of the mage profession in the world of the gods is also deepening.
The spellcaster profession here, or mage, is essentially a profession that increases one's spiritual power through meditation, communicates with the ubiquitous magic net, builds and stores spell models, and finally forms spell slots and uses them.
This conclusion made Leylin very speechless.
