When I read the skill description on the skill window, I was so excited that I could almost jump to space. The effects are seriously too awesome. Even if I had only either one of them, it is still rather convenient for me.
Before, I was still worrying about not having enhanced stats from choosing a class. However, with this pair of wings, it can somewhat make up for my current situation.
However, there’s still a very important problem.. I don’t even know a single Light, Illusion, Undead or Dark Magic..
Oh god! Why did it have to be these four Magic archetypes? Why!?
I went through so much to get this pair of strong wings, yet, why am I unable to use them!?
And because I could not use these four Magic archetypes, it’s not worth it to unleash my wings, as their three hour cooldown isn’t a joke. And if I were to unleash them, the only wing I could unleash is the Angel’s Wing. If I were to unleash my Undead’s Wing in my current state, it will bring nothing but trouble.
However, I could now conveniently open and retract my wings through the control window. When I retract my wings, there’s only small bulges on my back, and if I were to put on a cloak, it will be enough to prevent them from being seen.
And somehow, under Falan’s magic, I could not open up my Undead’s Wing at all. Well, for now, this is for the best.
However, I still selected to retract my Undead’s Wing on the control window, to prevent it from opening up after Falan’s magic is dispelled.
I already turned the lights in my room off. After all, with such a huge hole in the wall, the lights would have brighten up the garden outside.
I don’t wish to cause an awkward situation for the couples that intend to rendezvous at the garden downstairs. I’m such a good guy!
After resting on the bed for a good long while, there was finally a sound of the door opening. When I opened my eyes, in the darkness, I could already see Falan’s name floating in the air.
“You’re finally here? I almost fell asleep, you know?”
“Geez, to think you could sleep with such a huge hole in the wall~”
Falan immediately walked into the room, and stood at the foot of the bed.
“Alright, I will be teaching you a magic spell to control your undead aura. After all, I can’t be with you all the time, right? Don’t worry, I have already prepared a magic barrier before coming in, and I will teach you the barrier magic spell as well~”
“Then I must really give you my thanks~”
“I don’t really have a choice, as I’m part of the reason why you grew out that Undead’s Wing.”
After saying that, she threw two small crystal balls before me.
“I recorded the details of the two magic spells in those balls, so view them at your leisure. I have something on tonight, so I will be taking my leave.”
“You have something on? Are you leaving the academy? Wouldn’t that be..”
“Don’t worry~ Just be a good boy and stay here~ Unless you want this big sister to stay with you? Next ~ Time ~ Al ~ Right~?”
After leaving that line, in a flash, Falan’s figure jumped out of the big hole in the wall.
Geez, even though she’s younger than me.. I’m talking about our mental age.
When I picked up the two crystal balls, screens immediately popped out, notifying me that I could learn the spells. Obviously, I speedily tapped on the confirmation button.
Spell Learnt: Silent Dead
Suppresses the undead aura of a target. At the same time, it limits the abilities of the target.
Spell Learnt: Dead Silence
Creates a barrier of fixed radius, which prevents the leakage of undead aura.
After confirming the skills’ description on the skill window, I walked towards the hole.
In the distance, Falan’s name was moving further away, towards the west of the academy.. If I recall, that’s the direction of the arena. Further away, there’s various other facilities.. and then, the school walls? Is she leaving the school?
“Although it’s a little dangerous, but I can’t ignore this scent of a plausible side quest occurring.. And I can’t level up within the school compounds at all. I will take a look then.”
I could still use chants to control my Magic spells, however, I could not do that for other skills.
Opening the skill window, I pulled the skill icons to a comfortable position, and speedily tapped on the skills 【Light Steps】 and 【Sneak】 from the Rogue’s skill tree, and 【Accelerate】 from the Warrior’s skill tree. With a light leap through the hole, I started chasing after Falan.
While I passed through the battle arena, I could still see a giant block of ice embedded at the center of the arena. And on the other side, there were still burn marks on the outer walls.
As I expected, it’s quite difficult to remove things that are created by condensed magic.
From the results of my previous experiments, in this world, ice blocks created by magic will not melt like how normal ice do. One way to melt them is by interacting them with fire-based magic, and the other way is to wait for the ice magic particles to disperse from the ice blocks. Even if it’s just a size of a baseball, it will still take at least an entire day to melt. If it’s something created by Princess Michelle, it might even take several months.
When I saw that the red name in front of me stopped moving, I stopped, hid behind the arena wall, and tapped on the 【Hide】 skill.
The moment my entire body turned invisible, under the bright moonlight, I saw Falan, who was further up, cautiously surveying her surroundings. After that, she turned to the wall behind her and tapped on five different spots.
Dull lights began to glow from the cracks of the wall on the spots she tapped on, and after the lights connected, a meter-long five-pointed star magic circle was revealed.
After confirming that there were nobody behind her, she quickly passed through the magic circle. At the same time, the magic circle began to fade.
However, I could still see Falan’s name growing smaller, which meant that the magic circle is a type of teleportation magic.
“Space-Time Magic.. Although Falan did not have any titles related to space-time at all.. Unless it’s a magic tool?”
I quickly walked over to the wall, and carefully looked at those few bright spots.
I could somehow feel some sharp-hard objects on the wall that was supposed to be slabbed smoothly. It appeared to be several extremely small crystal balls that were embedded into the wall. Space-Time Magic Crystal Balls? Although I heard rumors that you could use magic crystal balls to create something similar to magical mechanisms, but it is actually my first time seeing one.
Though I did also hear that it’s necessary to know the procedures to start up the mechanism, I was too far away earlier, so I didn’t get a good look at all..
historical
When I saw that Falan’s name was going further away, I realized I didn’t have the time to stay frustrated.
“【Ice Totem】!”
The totem that appeared in the air pushed me slightly above the wall, and I leapt out.
Although I do not know why MP is used to activate my Warrior and Rogue skills, but, since I do not have to spend on Stamina Potions, all is well.
I took out a MP Recovery Potion and gulped it down. After that, I tapped on the skills 【Accelerate】 and 【Sneak】, and quickly chased after Falan.
