Chapter 16 : Sacred plot

While I was enjoying the exotic and luxurious things in the room in front of me. I heard a voice coming from behind.

I saw two men One of them was a middle-aged man standing by a large window. He had a warm and friendly expression at first sight. He was wearing a luxurious robe. It made him look even more dignified.

The other man was Felix, the drugstore owner who stalked me.

Now Felix is ​​on his knees. on the ground in front of another man with his head bowed all the time He didn't even dare to raise his head to meet the eyes of the man standing in front of him.

"Mr. Felix, you've made your decision, so you come see me today?"

"Yes, Father, I was confused for a moment that day, so I did not immediately give an answer. Please forgive me, Father."

"It's okay, don't worry. The Lord is always merciful and forgiving to those who believe in the Lord."

"As I have already told you. If you complete the mission You will be rewarded like you have never even dreamed of before."

"I'm ready to serve the Lord, father."

"Very well, first you will have to sign a magic contract with me. for the trust of both parties And you won't have to fear that your mission has been accomplished. will not receive a reward as agreed."

"I'm ready, father."

After Felix agreed The man standing walked towards a large, luxurious table not too far away. Open the drawer and take out the roll of paper from there.

"You must know very well how this kind of magic contract has to be signed, right?"

"Yes, father."

After that, Felix raised one of his hands. He then used his teeth to bite into the tip of the little finger until a drop of blood gushed out. He unfolded the scroll that had been given to him.

and then use the fingertips that are dripping with blood Stamped to the bottom of the unfolded paper roll.

"Oh, don't you want to read the contract details first, Felix?"

"It's not necessary. A noble like you has no reason to deceive a lowly person like me. and I am ready to serve the Lord with my life. No matter what the contract is written on, I don't care."

"Great! You are an excellent example of those who believe in the Lord. You can be confident that what you will receive in return will be It's worth your faith in the Lord."

After that, Felix handed the magic contract back to the man standing in front of him. By this time, he hadn't even lifted his head up once.

The other man took the magic contract from him and walked back to the same luxurious table.

He opened the drawer and put back the magic contract scroll.

After that, he stood still at the table. move his mouth seem like he say something while using his fingers to draw something on the table shortly after There was a bright light coming from above the elegant table.

After the bright light disappeared I saw that the top of the table A drawer appeared. Even though before, it was just a simple luxury plank. The man opened the drawer that had just appeared in a carefree manner.

He slowly took out the items one by one. The first one I can clearly remember. It was a strange pendant that Felix used to summon a strange cloud of smoke. After that, he took out two books. and closed the drawer As soon as the drawer closes It vanished on the table as if it had never been there.

The man walked back and stood in front of Felix again.

I noticed that Felix is now more excited than before he signing the magic contract.

"Alright, let me tell you about your mission. You must listen carefully. and thou shalt remember it carefully. never speak to anyone else Otherwise it will break the contract. And you should know what the consequences of breaking the magic contract are."

"I understand, Father. I'll keep this to myself. no one else will know it from my mouth."

"Very well, your mission isn't that difficult. It was actually your dream. I know you dream of becoming a member of the Magic Guild. Even the magic guild in this region didn't have any high-ranking members. But the selection is still based on the same standard as other regions where the spirit energy is strong."

"What I will let you do is just You go back to get ready. and went to the entrance examination of the branch of the Magic Guild in this town Then continue to prepare. In the Magician promotion test, once you become a Magician, this time you will qualify for the Chief of Magic Guild's branch selection competition in this town."

At that moment, Felix, who had always looked down at the man's feet in front of him. It looked up for the first time. He looked at the man in front of him with a shocked expression.

"Becoming a member of the Magic Guild? promoted to Magician?"

"Yes, you understand correctly."

"But Father I'm incompetent I've tried to pass the test by alchemy many times. But it's never close to passing the test once. Not to mention being promoted to Magician, even a dream, I never dreamed of being able to do it."

"Don't be discouraged, Mr. Felix, I'm here to help. These missions are very easy."

Felix's expression now turned from shock. It was a happy face immediately.

"I have two things to give you today. To help you pass the entrance test to become a member of the Magic Guild. The first is this book.

"This is a wild alchemist's experiment record. He had the power to be at an advanced level of Magician. Maybe if he was in the Magic Guild, he could be promoted to a Master Magician. Unfortunately, he made a mistake in his alchemy experiment and died."

Finished speaking, he handed the book to Felix. Felix extended his hand in trembling from excitement. This book seemed to be the most valuable thing he had ever received.

"The book I gave you There are both detailed drug formulas. Basic magic ring drawings in various ways. including important basic spells There was also a very detailed method of cultivating magic power for beginner mages. With the level of competition in the Magic Guild is very low in this branch of town. I believe that if you practice according to this book Soon you will be able to be promoted to a Magician."

"Thank you very much, Father. Thank you, my Lord. I will concentrate on preparing and completing the mission. Don't let the Lord be disappointed."

"Very good, besides that book. I will also give this pendant to you.

This pendant has been drawn with a magic spell. It's a summoning spell. It can summon holy spirits from the Eternal Realm to help you deal with your enemies. for how to use it If you study the book I gave you, you will understand."

After he finished speaking, he handed a strange pendant to Felix, who now extended his hand to receive it with a very happy expression.

"And well… this is your reward. that you will receive it when you complete all the missions."

The man standing spoke up. and held up the remaining book for Felix to see clearly

"This is the record of Seamus Fenegan, the last wizard level power to appear in the region in the past thousand years. It is said that this record was his last record. where he recorded the trials and the various spells he practiced. It was when he was at his most powerful.

It is said that he had the power of a true mage. He just need to traveled to the rank test at the Magic Guild main branch in the kingdom's capital. He would become a true mage. But no one knows what happened to him. because he disappeared on the way to the capital."

Now Felix's expression turned into a shock again. And he seemed to be much more shocked than before.

"Look at your shocking face. Show that you should know that How powerful is a true mage right? .Beyond Magician is Master Magician. and the level above that is A true mage

A magician at that level had the power to be able to slay this region without anyone else's resistance. It is a true great power."

The man standing there paused for a moment, staring at Felix's still shocked expression, and continued.

"If you continue studying this note after completing the mission, then You must know that you will have the opportunity to become the greatest mage in this region for a thousand years."

"Thank you Father for supporting me."

Felix spoke with a trembling voice filled with unbearable excitement.

"Haha, don't get too excited. I will keep this book first. Wait for you to complete your mission. and you will surely get this book for sure."

It was at this moment that I thought back to the previous events in the cave about the mysterious bracelet. So I ordered my sphere of light to float towards the book in the man's hand.

and I shifted the light into the book, letting my light shine through the whole book. As soon as the light flooded the entire book The sight in front of me had changed as I had expected.
