Chapter 133: Givings

On the 9th floor of Morton’s magic tower, Abel was looking down at Bakong City under the mountain. He felt small. Then, the identity card on his waist began to vibrate lightly.

Abel then took out the identity card and placed it on his hands. From the card came the voice of wizard Morton, “Abel, I need to see you right now!”

“Yes, teacher! Abel then put away his identity card and headed towards the 11th floor.

Ever since Abel had entered the magic tower, he had only been sought out by wizard Morton once, which was only the first day. For the four months afterward, wizard Morton seemed to be particularly busy. He traveled out quite frequently. He only returned yesterday, and he immediately requested Abel to see him the next day.

Abel had teleported from the 10th floor to the living room on the 11th floor. Wizard Morton was reading a book in his hand as Abel bowed and said, “Teacher, I am coming over now! ”

“You arrived!” Wizard Morton lifted his head and looked at Abel. Suddenly he asked in disbelief, “Are you already a level 2 novice wizard now?”

“Yes, teacher, I meditate every day to improve my magical ability as you required. Before I knew it, I completed the rank one novice wizard pattern, and now I am doing the rank 2. Did I do something wrong?” Abel knew his meditation practice speed was unusually fast, but there was nothing he could do about it. His level was still too low. Meditating in Rogue encampment with its 20 times meditation speed was already much quicker than the rate of ordinary wizard practice.

Wizard Morton paused for a moment and said, “It is said that some people are naturally superior in their abilities and in their constitution. They can learn everything much faster than others, but I am not expertise constitution, so I cannot tell what kind of constitution you have. What I can tell you is, your constitution does not match that of an ordinary human.”

When Abel saw that Morton was helping him to find his reasons for why he was leveling up so quickly, he was glad that he was not suspecting anything of him. When he became a formal wizard, his strength would be so tremendous that no one could ever doubt him.

“You’ve only been in the tower for four months, and you’ve already become a rank two novice wizard. Originally, I wanted to examine your practice progress, but that doesn’t seem to matter now.” Wizard Morton said with a smile on his face and added, “Even if you had the best talent and constitution, you could not have become a rank two novice wizard so quickly if it weren’t for your effort.”

“Teacher, it was only because you are looking after me very well too.” Said Abel, bowing gratefully to wizard Morton.

As Abel thought about how he was arranged to the best floor of the magic tower by Wizard Morton, he was moved. After entering the world of wizards, both Novice Wizard Sam or teacher Morton were all particularly concerned about him. Not only so, the two senior brothers and sisters in Morton magic towers were also very attentive to Abel upon his entry.

“You are really good at compliments, aren’t you,” Wizard Morton said in a reproachful tone, and the smile on Morton’s face increased markedly. He went on to say, “I have been busy with some trifling things lately, and I had only finished yesterday. From today on, I will teach you the basic knowledge every morning. Here, take this book, if you can, memorize everything in it.”

As Wizard Morton spoke, his right hand swiped in the air, and a spell pattern suddenly appeared. For a moment, a white light flashed on wizard Morton, and then it flashed on a book that was on the shelf not far from Wizard Morton. Shortly after, the book disappeared in the white light, and at the same time, Wizard Morton gained another book in his hands.

Abel recognized that this was the spell that Wizard Morton had used to destroy his “Firebomb” in his courtyard in Triumph boulevard.

“Here!” Wizard Morton then handed the book towards Abel, and said, “This book is a record of most of the things that are useful to wizards. I’ve put together a collection of books on these particular subjects, with my own ideas written on it too. It’s a good book for people like you who had just entered the world of wizards since it can instruct you and motivate you too.”

Afterward, Abel took the book that was handed over by wizard Morton with both his hands. It was a heavy book with a thick orc skin on the cover to protect the soft lambskin parchment pages inside. The book was called Morton’s Observations Records, written by Wizard Morton.

As Abel opened the book cover, there were contents of a variety of flowers, grass, insects, beasts, and also introduced a variety of magic gems, crystal core, minerals, and so on. The book covered everything that was useful or can come into effect for the wizards.

“Thank you, teacher!” After a quick glimpse at the contents of the book, Abel knew the book was wizard Morton had taken meticulous care in writing this book. It would’ve taken so much effort and time to compile such a large volume of content, as well as dividing them into chapters.

“Abel, next time, when you go on an adventure, you will no longer have a problem identifying a treasure, and regret not taking it.” Said Wizard Morton laughing loudly and followed, “Correct. You are my disciples. You also have givings in the Duchy of Carmel.”

“Disciples also have givings?” Abel never knew the Duchy would pay him gold coins for studying at a magic tower. He couldn’t help but admire his status as a wizard. The Duchy was very strict on its citizen’s taxes. Other than the Duchy’s guards, he never heard of the Duchy giving gold coins back.”

“Of course, but you will first need to apply for a magic gold card first, then I will be able to use your identity card to apply for the application. Afterward, all you need to do is go to the bank of the holy continent” Morton smiled at Abel.

“Teacher, I actually already have a magic gold card.” Abel then took out his magic gold card from his arms and showed it to Wizard Morton.

“You’re doing pretty well amongst ordinary people. You already possess a gold magic card.” Wizard Morton rarely cared about the lives of ordinary people, which was why he didn’t bother to investigate Abel’s previous identity. No matter how prestigious your titles were, it was nothing compared to a wizard. The only thing that was strange to Wizard Morton was Abel’s young age. How could he already pass the application for a magic gold card at this age?

Abel felt a little embarrassed as he touched his head in embarrassment. He was unable to speak of his previous achievements in the presence of Morton.

Abel might be underestimating his previous status. Maybe a baron title didn’t mean much for a wizard like Morton, but the identity of a master blacksmith was actually much more prestigious than what Abel thought it was. As it was from ancient times until now, a master blacksmith was still a very noble identity. If Morton knew Abel was a master blacksmith, he would surely look favorably on him.

“When you are free, go to the bank of the holy continent and get your givings.” Laughed Morton, and added, “All of my disciples are offered 10,000 gold per month, and you’ve still haven’t gotten yours for four months already.”

The bank of the holy continent was the Holy Continent’s chamber of commerce to the outside world. Although The Holy Continent chamber of commerce alliance did not belong to any country, people from different countries have held shares of the alliance, forming a wealth throughout the large financial institutions in the human world as all countries had joined up to supervise its’ operations, as well as unifying the gold standard in the human world. This ultimately created magic gold through the use of magic.

“Yes, Teacher,” Abel said. He bent down and marveled at the nobility of the wizard’s identity, allowing a disciple to have 10,000 gold as consecration.

“I’m going to tell you about the two spell systems today. One is the pattern system, and the other is the rune system.” said wizard Morton sternly.

As soon as Abel heard that Morton was giving a formal lecture, he straightened up, concentrated, and began to listen to him.

“Before the human conquered such a large amount of lands, the elite elves ruled the world. Both the orcs and humans were slaves to the elves until all the elite elves had vanished from this world. Although their descendants, the elves, had inherited some of their abilities, they were nowhere as powerful as the elite elves. Afterward, there were countless years of battles. At last, the world was divided into three territories. Humans, orcs, and elves.” The eyes of Wizard Morton began to sparkle. He must have been reminded of the suffering the humans had gone through during those battles.”

“We humans were good at learning. We learned patterns from the elite elves. Patterns bring us a new class, and that is us.” Wizard Morton went on with a look of excitement. “Wizard!”

“The elite elves did not create patterns for professionals purposes; most of it was for the sake of pleasure. The elite elves really knew how to enjoy life. They created the teleportation array to save the struggle of walking. Illumination array for lights at night. Protection array for protecting personal belongings. All and all, they all just to enjoy life, and they rarely had any patterns for battles.” Wizard Morton seemed to be extremely biased towards the elite elves, and his voice was full of sarcasm.
