Chapter 87: The Second Spell

After the book stopped shining, it landed on the bed before Gabriel.

"So I was right! You can understand me! You do have a soul!"

If Gabriel had a doubt before, he was now sure about this notion that the Grimoire actually had a soul, and it was intelligent. It could understand him and take action accordingly!

"No wonder you managed to take me to a safe place when I was about to die. You saved me at that time."

He was still grateful for the Grimoire, which saved his life twice. However, there were still some doubts in his head as well. If the Grimoire could take him to that bizarre place where he saw those statues, then why didn't the Grimoire of Darkness take the old owner there?

When the Lord of Darkness was surrounded by other Sacred Mages, then why didn't his Grimoire do the same? Why didn't his Grimoire save him? Was this something that only his Grimoire could do?

These questions plagued his head, but he kept his mind on his goal. He had a task at hand. Before it was night, he wanted to read the new spells and understand them, so he didn't make the same mistake.

He had another concern when he asked for the help from Grimoire. The Grimoire was hard to be detected by the enemies unless they were extremely close to him. And even then, the gloves hid its aura. However, the spells were a different matter.

Even though his Element was inherently different from the Element of Darkness, the aura still had some traces of darkness. So whenever he used a spell from his Grimoire, he always carried a risk of alerting every Mage in his vicinity.

As if understanding the concern of his, the Grimoire gave him an extra spell just for that. The third spell he received was exactly that.

He opened the Grimoire and went into the third spell.

"Imitation of the Dead!"

He carefully read the name of the third spell, which was what intrigued him the most. It was the spell that worked on the biggest problem that he had.

It was a low tier spell that couldn't be used for offense. It couldn't be used for defense either. However, its use was something that was even more important for Gabriel than the offensive or defensive spells.

The spell allowed him to Imitate the Dead, but not like the Ring of Apophis allowed him to do. The spell didn't help him disguise. It didn't make him change into someone else. Instead, the spell only worked to imitate the aura.

It was more like a disguise spell that allowed him to imitate the aura of someone else when casting spells. Since he was a Mage with an Element that was much darker, he could use the Imitation of the Dead on himself to make it impossible for anyone to feel his true aura.

The spell not only hid his own aura, but it also hid the aura of his Death Spells and everything associated with those spells.

His biggest problem was being sensed by powerful mages if he used his second Element. However, with Imitation of the Dead, he could use those spells, and no one could sense anything odd.

This one spell gave him free access to use his other Element without being detected. The only flaw with the spell was that it had a time limitation since it was a spell that placed a lot of burden on one's soul. That's also why the spell was restricted for Gabriel before.

The spell couldn't disguise his aura with anyone's aura. It specifically disguised his Deathly Aura with the elemental auras of the people he had killed. He had a choice with that.

Since Gabriel had recently killed Hawrin, he could disguise his Aura of Death with the Aura of Light which was Hawrin's element.

That was just the third spell which was for his protection. It couldn't help him get out of here. For that, there was the fourth spell... The second blessing from his Grimoire.

Gabriel memorized the third spell and made sure to master it completely since it was the most important spell for him.

After spending an hour on the third spell, he turned the page and moved into the fourth spell.

"Undead Switch!"

The fourth spell also happened to be a low tier spell. However, despite being a low tier spell, it was also very versatile, just like the third spell.

Instead of allowing him to imitate his aura, the fourth spell allowed him to change places with an Undead. It was a spell that was easy to understand, just from the name itself. Still, Gabriel went through the description of the spell.

The Fourth Spell allowed him to switch places with an Undead in an instant. It was no less than Teleportation. However, for that, he needed an Undead in the first place. Only if there was an Undead, he could switch places with him.

Despite that problem, Gabriel didn't feel bad. Instead, he had a grin on his face. With the two new spells, he felt that he had completed a set. The two new spells removed his biggest problem and gave him an advantage that he craved for! He now has everything!

"Thank you!" Gabriel thanked his Grimoire now that he knew that it could understand him.

After thanking the Grimoire, he went through the fourth spell, trying to learn it to perfection as well. He had already learned the first three spells, which only left one last spell to be learned.

He spent half an hour more before finally learning the fourth spell. If only he knew what he had achieved, he would've been surprised himself.

The two new spells that he learned were low-tier spells, but they were among the most complex low-tier spells. To learn spells like them, even a talented person took weeks, sometimes months. However, he was done within a couple of hours. And he didn't even know what he did.

After he finished, Gabriel let out a sigh of relief. He looked out the window, noticing that it had already become dark outside. It was around nine at night.

Knock Knock~

There was suddenly a knock on the door, which surprised Gabriel. He made the Grimoire return to the form of the ring before hiding the Spellbook of Light as well. He once again wore his Gloves and checked his reflection in the Mirror to ensure his disguise was still intact.

After making sure that there was nothing suspicious, he opened the door, wondering who could be at this time.

"It's you..." As he opened the door, he sighed in relief.

There was a young girl standing outside the door with a tray in his hand.

"It's been one day since you arrived here, and you're already in trouble." Riya rolled her eyes. "Just my luck that I had to be selected as your advisor when you came here. Anyway, I brought some food for you since you can't leave."

Riya moved Gabriel aside before entering the room. She placed the tray on the bed. "Eat up and rest."

She started leaving as if she had only come to deliver food. However, as he was about to step out of the room, she stopped.

"I heard what happened. I believe you. I don't think you can kill anyone," She earnestly stated. "I'm sure you'll be proven innocent tomorrow. So best of luck."

She left, closing the door behind her. The door was locked from outside again.

Gabriel locked the door from inside as well before gazing back at the food.

It still wasn't midnight. There was still some time, and he was also feeling quite hungry. He went to the bed and started feasting.

Within twenty minutes, Gabriel finished eating and started resting, waiting for midnight. He had all the preparations now. Just the right time was needed, which was when the academy wasn't crowded, and most of the students were already asleep.

For the next two hours, he just lay on the bed, gazing at the roof. For some reason, the time was moving so slowly now.

For him, three hours seemed like an eternity, maybe because he was excited to use the spells. Finally, he could use them safely without worrying about getting an entire army after him.

After tormenting three hours, finally, it was midnight! Gabriel got off the bed and walked over to the windows, glancing at the beautiful moon in the sky. The streets were also quite empty. Only a few students could be seen walking.

"I guess it's time... Time to make sure I get what I'm here for!"

"Come to me!" He raised his right hand. His ring turned into a speck of dark light, passing through his gloves before taking the shape of a Dark Grimoire.

The Fourth Page opened instantly, landing on the Third Spell that he had received.

"Imitation of the Dead!" Gabriel declared, thinking about Hawrin.

The first thing he did was use the Imitation of the Dead for protection. And then came the main part.

Instead of turning to the fifth page, the Grimoire opened the Third Page, following Gabriel's wish.

"Time to meet you..."

"Return of the Dead!"

He finally used his second spell. The spell that he had for a long time but never used, even though he was curious about it, based on its description. Finally, he used the spell that could summon an Undead from the Nether!

A blood-red formation circle appeared on the floor before Gabriel. The entire room was filled with blood-red light. If someone outside were looking toward his window, they would've seen his windows illuminated in red light, but fortunately, no one was looking there.

The Formation came with a frighteningly demonic aura that would've been sensed from a thousand miles away, but the Immigration of the Dead changed the aura with the aura of a Beginner Mage of Light which was Hawrin.

A pitch black door appeared above the red formation, which initially looked like a hologram, but before long, it looked more real than an actual door.

A metallic door was before Gabriel. There was a scythe carved on the door. A pitch black gem was embedded in the middle of that scythe.

The door slowly started opening…
