Chapter 136 The Boy Is Too Daring
Chapter 136 The Boy Is Too Daring
"Wow, so many of them."
Lyra looked at the large number of pedestals layer upon layer arranged in a circle and shouted in surprise. She thought, like last time, she could only choose one.
"That's what I'm talking about. As long as you pass the corresponding trial, you can gain that inheritance."
Ian smiled at her.
"But don't think all the pedestals have the inheritance. Some might be empty, so choose correctly and don't waste too much time."
"Heh, but they still didn't allow us to practice the meditation method we just got," Lyra commented after seeing that the hunt for inheritance was about to begin after she glanced at the hourglass on the stele.
Just as Ian said, they had a fixed amount of time to look for the Wizard's inheritance and it was already about to begin.
"Heh, you girl, don't know how lucky you are."
Ian rolled his eyes at her complaining. Although he didn't know what path others had chosen, it still couldn't be as easy as theirs.
They could directly gain a meditation method perfectly aligned with their qualifications, that too a peak one, without searching for it like headless flies. Tower directly gave them in their hands.
Now, all they needed to do was gather as many treasures as they could and start practicing.
"Don't just stand there. You can also fight. There are things that can help you increase your Knight Realm too. Just don't choose something you cannot afford."
Seeing that Aurora was only looking at the rules on the stele as if having no idea to take part in the trial, Ian reminded her.
"Um."
"Just hunt at the periphery, don't think too much," Ian advised too lazy to say more.
But, since he did say he would take her to the Calvora Continent, it would be bad if she got injured due to negligence.
"Swoosh!"
Just after he finished speaking, the glowing hourglass on the stele suddenly turned upside down while a trickle of magic particles began to drop continuously, marking the beginning of the trial.
"Use all your power and grab as many as you can. Don't worry about consumption or hiding your abilities. Just don't go to the center, okay."
Ian came close to Lyra, kissed her cheek, and suggested before suddenly disappearing right in front of her and Aurora.
"What..."
Aurora exclaimed, bewildered, as suddenly she couldn't see Ian in front of her anymore. She was just feeling jealous of their intimacy when Ian vanished right in front of her eyes as if he wasn't there to begin with.
This method of disappearance was so strange, as even Ron needed some time to use spells.
"Worry about yourself, girl."
Lyra smiled slightly while suddenly using her movement technique to head directly toward one of the pedestals that had glowing orbs on top of it.
She had already practiced the Graceful Path technique to perfection, so her steps, which looked slow and rhythmic, were actually quite fast.
Moreover, with a thin crimson chain suddenly surrounding her figure, she looked quite charming and demonic at the same time.
"They're already a Wizard?"
How could Aurora not understand now after seeing their methods? After all, such ways were really unheard of in the realm of Knights.
Even the Legendary Knights couldn't just disappear out of nowhere like Ian did not to mention the Crimson chains surrounding Lyra, which was clearly a spell in Aurora's perception.
'Being a Wizard is really good, huh? How can I become one?' Aurora thought unconsciously.
"Hehe, see, girl? You are no match for either of them. Don't you want those powers too? Why don't you heed my words?"
Suddenly, just as Aurora was unconsciously yearning for power, the Whisper that had left her mind sounded once again, trying to bewitch her.
"Wha... Stop! Why are you here again? I don't need your help."
Aurora was shocked and didn't like this entity appearing again inside her mind that had been torturing her consistently since childhood.
"Tch... why are you stubborn when you are so weak? Remember, girl, the weak have no rights in this world. How many times do you think that boy will help you? He has someone to take care of anyway. Hehe..."
"Shut up... go away."
Aurora didn't know why, but what the Whisper talked about made her irritated as she scolded it in a cold voice, clearly out of her character.
"Hm? Why is he here?"
However, the Whisper seemed stunned, not by her cold tone but by some inexplicable discovery, causing it to ignore Aurora.
"Tch... tch... that boy is too daring, isn't he? Girl, don't call me from now on in front of that boy. You can also forget about my conditions earlier."
After saying that, the Whisper disappeared from Aurora's mind just as inexplicably as it had appeared.
"Who called you in the first place?"
Aurora couldn't help but complain but didn't dwell on the issue much as she didn't have much time. So, she put aside those thoughts and also chose a pedestal at the periphery just as Ian advised, ready for the search for inheritance.
Maybe she would find something incredible—who knew? Although the hope was slim, it was still there.
...
While Lyra and Aurora decided on their pillars, Ian also suddenly appeared in front of a tall cylindrical pedestal, which was a little closer to the center.
"Ethereal Disguise with the Veilborn Shroud is quite powerful," Ian commented with a smile after canceling his form.
Your journey continues at My Virtual Library Empire
Unlike the full form of the Ethereal Disguise technique, this time he only opened the channel from the Life Seed to his mind, allowing it to pump energy directly rather than turning incorporeal like before.
This way, he could perform this technique without exerting himself. Leveling up this technique to the Ascent realm seemed to make it more powerful.
"Let's see how all the learning for two months does in a fight."
Ian was itching for a good fight with all the power he had. Moreover, as he said to Lyra, he was going to grab as many inheritances as he could from this place.
