A few months passed and during this time I continued to train and sell magical metals and gems. And having enchanted things for accuracy and for earlier effects, I think that I am ready to hit the road and having collected my things, I left the house.
The first idea was to just get on a plane and head in the direction the compass was showing but I wanted to see other countries and just followed around in that direction while visiting places of interest.
The first was France and Paris and the local magical alley Place Cachée there, having bought souvenirs and clothes, he went further to Italy and there too, and then to Greece and the destination was somewhere in Greece.
The journey didn't take as long as I originally thought, and I started looking for where to go and a few days of searching led me to a large forest and continuing the compass led me to a Quite a large tree I don't know something like an oak and there is a dira in the trunk an adult will be able to go there and for some reason seems to be the entrance.
Walking in a circle and looking at the compass directly shows this tree and checking with the help of spells and using Overhaul and not noticing any spells that could harm, I went in and inside it was more spacious and there were spiral staircases made of stone.
Going down, I saw a large room, it seems like a living room, there is a sofa and a table and a chair, a fireplace with a bookcase chair and the strangest thing is that in the center of the room there is a supply for books and there is a book cover with gold patterns.
I didn't touch him, very reminiscent of Indiana Jones when he replaces the golden figurine. Having checked, I didn't find anything, no spells or mechanisms and something like that, but I didn't want to touch anything anyway. So leaving the book went to check further and there was a room with a cauldron and vials.
Going into another room I was greeted by just a huge library and most of the books are in languages that I don't know but there are those that are written in Old English.
There were many more different rooms and such a large space was created with the help of a kind of suitcase spell that I have it much larger inside.
But after looking at several rooms, I returned to the hall where the book stood. I don't know what will happen, but as I approached, I quickly took the book and jumped back. Nothing happened, I thought if I take the book, a trap will start and the spell will fly at me, but there is nothing.
Having opened the book, it is already clear that the grimoire that was in the note is this book. It was written about different places and not very important things, and that's all, and at the end it seemed to be unfinished. It took me a long time to read the whole book, so I just flipped through but didn't notice anything important.
"Damn, I wanted rituals to be written in the grimoire" otherwise it's hard to find something good about rituals in London and other countries.
When I said this, the letters in the book disappeared and others appeared, and it really says about rituals, maybe there is a voice search?
"Potions" and recipes for potions appeared "All that a novice potions master should know" this time others are here about safety and what devices are needed and everything you need. After checking and looking for a few other things everything showed up.
Suddenly all the words disappeared and this appeared
{ You found my grimoire and proved that you are worthy and as a reward you get a method that makes you a powerful wizard, use the method wisely and you will find everything you need in the warehouse}
There were rituals and potions coupled with various spells, all planned out step by step but a few of the effects weren't clear what they were supposed to do.
I wanted to know why after I picked up the book and had already used it for a bit, only now this letter appeared and not at the moment when I opened the book. I dismantled the book and then howled a lot, a lot of spells and runes. But something black and round attracted my attention and tearing it away from the book, I collected the book back.
The black ball took off and turned into a dark ghost, I set up to run away or fight, but the ghost, as if he had just come to his senses, began to look around and looked at me and said.
"Don't be afraid, child, I'm the former owner of this grimoire. I found it on one of my travels, but I didn't want to leave my grimoire that my soul got caught in a book. But how did I get here?"
"I don't know, I didn't do anything but bam and you showed up."
He looked at me and "Well, everything is possible, but I will give advice"
"Which?"
"You should never lose vigilance" and rushed at me, I tried to dodge, but he grabbed me and darkness began to envelop me, I tried to vibratsa and used all the spell that I knew but it did not help.
"Know you shouldn't listen to your enemy's monologue, if you ask how to find out who is an enemy and who is a friend, then remember for the rest of your short life there are no friends in this world, only enemies and tools that you can use and never let anyone approach you, so now for now and may you not forget it in your next life"
I'm out of strength, magic doesn't help so I used Overhaul and I passed out but before that I heard "What the hell is this!!!"
