Black sorcerer

Chapter 5 ：The Power of Magic

The reason for wanting to enter this suspicious building was that Jaro not only feared a sudden attack of migraine, but also wanted to see who was inside.

When he saw the old man, he was very happy because he felt that even if he had a migraine attack, nothing would happen, because the other person was just an old man who could step into the coffin at any time.

But as soon as he felt the old man's benevolent gaze, he dared not think: "He might live longer than me! Wait, the old man is a sorcerer? Wait, wizard... I seem to have seen it somewhere before, in one of the books on my father's bookshelf?

It's strange, I'm not from here, but I recognise the writing. It's not quite complete, but I'm sure it's the same as at home!

I used to read these books when I was bored, and I never thought I would be able to use them here!

I didn't quite recognise all the characters, so I guess I'll have to find an opportunity to ask him about it in the future!

Wait, if I can read the characters here, does that mean I haven't left the original world? Maybe, but it doesn't matter! No matter where I am, the world will reject me!

Those four meteorites couldn't destroy me, so I guess I'll have to find some powerful guys or monsters! If even they can't do it, I don't mind destroying them myself! Huh?

Jaro was startled by the sound of a c***k and lowered his head to follow the sound. 'Kid, who the hell are you?

Seeing only a pile of black ash on the table, Jaro was at a loss: Who am I? Should I tell him my true identity? No, this old man seems like a nice guy, I'd better not get him into unnecessary trouble!

Who am I? I'm an aspiring wizard, of course! Boss, I don't know much about wizards, can you tell me... what's going on?'

Jaro's appearance was a little suspicious, but the old man didn't care when he walked through the door.

When the old man heard the sound of breaking, he lost his appetite for his pipe. The more he looked at the strange-looking Jaro, the more shocked and delighted he was: 'More than 20 years! It's been more than 20 years since I've seen such a talented young man!

Judging by the situation, the boy hasn't noticed it yet. What's wrong with him?

He is a natural sorcerer and will surely become a great sorcerer in the future, even more powerful than me! Before I die, I must do my best to cultivate him!

Young man, since you don't understand, let me tell you the necessary requirements to become a wizard. First, you must have a sense of reverence for nature to embark on the path of magic. Second, you must abide by the rules you have set for yourself. These two points are the most important, so you must remember them!

Finally, every wizard must have a staff, otherwise it will be difficult to cast magic. Is that clear?'

'These are the necessary requirements to become a wizard? Guildmaster, I don't have a staff, you...'

'Don't worry, the guild will provide the lowest level staff to new recruits at the beginning.

'I see! President, my name is Jarro. I've decided to join the Mage Guild. Do I have to pay a fee?'

'No, and you don't need to call me President. My name is Ban. You can call me Old Ban.'

'No, you're an elder. How can I call you that? I'd rather call you Grandpa! Grandfather, are you not going to answer the question I just asked you?

Young man, you want to know why the magic detector was destroyed, don't you? Actually, it's no big deal. It's just something that happens when you use it for a long time. Don't worry, there are still plenty of detectors in the guild. It's no big deal if one breaks!

That's good! Grandfather, I have some urgent business to take care of, so please give me the staff quickly.

Seeing that Jaro wanted to leave as soon as possible, Ban pointed to the corner near the inner door: 'It's right there, just pick any one you like.

In a world with a high mortality rate, the existence of wizards is common, but wizards who live long are very rare. Now that Ben is over 60 years old, with his wealth of experience, it is not difficult for him to see the unease in Jaro's heart.

But just as he takes a few puffs on his cigarette, his thoughts are interrupted by the sudden sound of a 'click': 'What's going on? Grandfather, these wands you have here... why are they of such poor quality?

Seeing four wands damaged in a row, Ben panicked: 'Wait, kid, these wands cost at least 3 silver each, don't you dare... Never mind, come to me quickly.

After being called, Jaro whispered, "Sorry, Grandpa, I'll pay back the 12 silver when I make money in the future. Hmm... this hall is a bit dark, Grandpa, can you...'

The colourful light suddenly shone, and seeing this sight for the first time, Jaro felt an even deeper longing for the wizard.

It's really beautiful. Is this the Wizard's magic? Hm? Grandfather, you don't have a staff in your hand, how did you...' "Sorry, I'm making a fuss. I hope you don't mind!

No, how could I mind? Boy, when the magic detector broke just now, I detected a certain talent hidden within you." Talent? What talent?'

'Agility! That is an extremely rare magical talent. As for how far it can go, I haven't discovered it yet.'

'Magical talent? Grandpa, are there really different kinds of talents? "Of course! Enough of this nonsense. I'll teach you the simplest fireball technique first. Watch carefully!" "Okay, Grandpa!

When Jaro left the Magic Guild with a respectful attitude, Bena's excitement, which he hadn't felt in years, still hadn't subsided.

Interesting, that boy is really interesting! In less than half an hour, he has already learned all this magic! A young boy who can cast magic without the aid of a staff? Yes, he may be able to show me the depths of magic!

Master Ben, you're one of the few great magicians in Mafolie, how can you give that brat such a high rating?' 'Hmph, it's you sneaky young man again. Tell me, what do you want from me?

After leaving the guild, Jaro, who had learned magic, should have been happy, but he felt that something was ridiculous.

This is ridiculous! No matter what kind of magic it is, as long as I use it, all magical attributes will turn into black magic! Could it be because of the old man's comment about magical talent? Hmm?

Jarol had been sitting in front of the stone table for a long time, lost in thought, when he was suddenly jolted out of it. Hey, Jarol, what are you dreaming about? That's strange, you said you wanted to be an assassin. Then why haven't I seen...'

'Sorry, Xiu, I didn't go to the Assassin's Guild. At the moment... I'm a sorcerer's apprentice!'

'Sorcerer? Not bad! Actually... I wanted to join the Mage Guild, but I couldn't find the right address, so...'

'By the way you're dressed, did you join the Archery Guild?' 'Of course!

Xiu, who couldn't become a mage, carried a longbow on his back, with quivers of arrows and two daggers hanging from his waist on either side.

He looked up at the sky and worried about his future. He was afraid that he would not be able to do the job of captain, so he waited quietly for the other three. He became inexplicably nervous.

Just as Xiu was about to fall asleep, the steady sound of footsteps woke him and drew Jaro's attention.

The person in grey and white armour, holding a shield in his left hand and a sword in his right, could easily be mistaken for a patrol guard: 'Jaro, please don't look at me like that!

'Are you really Xiar?

Xiar removed his helmet and immediately felt much more relaxed: 'Of course it's me! Ugh, it's so uncomfortable to wear a helmet, I hope I can get used to it soon!
