Chapter 21 - Chapter 21: Kai's Path to Elements and Worries

I haven't been out to do college missions much lately. My mentor took a four month long vacation for me, so I don't have any Warcraft crystal nuclei or flesh for you at the moment, "Kai said, pulling out a transparent and clear energy crystal from his pocket." But after today's experiment, there's only a blank crystal with depleted energy left. Do you want it

The originally surging elemental power of this crystal has long been exhausted, with only faint yellow elemental threads interwoven within, which can be considered as remnants of cold cooking. Owl Qi didn't pick, or rather had no choice. With a slight lift of the brown beak hook, the blank crystal in Kai's hand flew into its mouth. The hard crystal shattered into pieces under Qi's bite hook, and its teeth and biting force made Kai secretly stunned more than once.

Gugu Gu, there is still a promising future as a disciple of the official Black Mage, especially since your mentor is still Master Moseldo, "Qi Gugu shouted." The entire Black Magic Academy probably only has so many energy crystals stored by Master Moseldo

The blank crystal that Kai gave to Qi was originally a high-grade energy crystal of the earth series. In Moses' laboratory, this level can also be considered a high-grade commodity. More advanced than it, Kai has only seen it a few times in recent years, and it is a treasure known as the essence of first level energy.

Qi ate at a fast pace, his throat gurgled, and the fist sized blank crystal was completely swallowed by him. After chatting with Qi for a few more words, Kai walked over to the tree stump next to him with obvious cutting marks and sat down. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he began his routine spiritual power meditation practice.

Three years ago, Kai discovered that the concentration of elements in the depths of the White Yae Forest was not low, and the atmosphere was particularly quiet and comfortable. The efficiency of meditation was even higher than that of the small hut in Moses that depicted the Energy Gathering Magic Array. After Kai entered a meditative state, Qi didn't disturb him anymore, not even making the sound of his wings flapping, and he didn't know when he would quietly leave. Only the faint chirping of insects and birds and the sound of wind blowing leaves remain in the white locust forest, and Kai's meditation efficiency has increased. By the time he finished his meditation, it was already evening at the academy, and Qi didn't know where he had flown. It was probably because the academy supervisor was also busy dealing with the unexpected accident.

Kai shook his magic robe, which was damp from the forest dew, and slowly walked out of the White Brucea Forest step by step. Unlike when I arrived in the morning, there were a few white lights appearing in the Bai Ya Lin, which is the origin of its name. Kai's research found that it is a thumb sized white bug that naturally emits white light from its tail after absorbing tree sap at a specific time. Under the dazzling and beautiful white light, Kai's black figure gradually disappeared. He almost comes to the White Yae Forest for meditation every few days. He is no longer as excited or novel about these white lights as he was at first, but they remind Kai of the deep and brilliant stars in the night sky on the surface of the earth.

Kai returned to the dormitory, and his girlfriend Lina almost returned at the same time. Lena assisted her mentor Ferena in completing the dark magic experiment today. Her face was a bit tired, but seeing Kai busy in the kitchen, she still rallied and went over to help prepare dinner. A few years have passed, and Lena's cooking skills have improved a bit. She is not messy when cooking and can independently make some simple food. Seeing Lena come to help, Kai felt warm in his heart. The time spent with Lena allowed him to temporarily forget the dangers of the underground world and the heavy workload of magic learning. He felt that Lena should also have a similar feeling. The two of them had been together for a long time and became more and more connected.

But there was something that made Kai feel uncomfortable and heavy today, which was the request made by Senior Sister Fei'er during the day. Kai is not sure if this counts as betrayal, nor does he know if he should tell Lena. He knows Lena well, and if he were to say so, the impatient Lena would likely go straight to confront Phil. Phil and Lena have both helped Kai a lot, and he doesn't want to see bad situations happen.

Kai's emotions and state were not right, and Lena, who had lived with him for more than ten years, quickly realized it. However, Kai didn't say anything, and Lena didn't ask rashly. Almost everyone thinks that Lena is a 'crazy woman', and her style of action makes many apprentices of the same level or even stronger wary. But Kai knows that Lena is actually quite calm in her bones. Before every impulse, she instantly thinks about the consequences and whether she can bear them. Perhaps because of this, although Lena's reputation as a "crazy woman" is well-known, she has been able to survive until now and is getting better and better. A truly crazy fool cannot reach the level of a high-level apprentice, let alone become a formal disciple of a black mage.

If Lena had seen Kai like this a few years ago, she would have directly asked what happened, but now she hasn't rashly asked because she knows that Kai will naturally speak up if he wants to, and she doesn't want to force him if he doesn't want to. I don't know when Lena started to care and show concern for Kai's feelings.

A dinner that was too lavish for other low-level apprentices was prepared with the joint efforts of Kai and Lena. At the dining table, Kai didn't say anything and just ate and read a magic book as usual. Kai has read this book 'Annotated by Anka' over twenty times, but the more he reads it, the more it becomes flavorful. Every time he reads some detailed notes, he gains new insights. Kai speculated that the author, Master Anka, may not be an ordinary formal magician, but a stronger presence than his mentor Moses, perhaps reaching the level of a dean.

Just like the sentence in the book: "Witcher is the source of all spellcasters' professions in the wizarding world. Witches do not divide their knowledge systems and contents too rigidly. As long as they are useful to wizards, they will learn and master them." Kai Shen thought so, and now he seemed to be a fire magic apprentice and alchemy apprentice, but in fact he had also dabbled in a small amount of dark magic and pharmacy knowledge. This is not because he is greedy, but because he is truly interested in these fields and feels that rough learning is of great help to him. And who stipulates that if the element affinity of fire, light, and dark is high, he can only learn these three types of magic? Plants, soil, water systems, wind systems... and even rare magical knowledge in fields such as thunder, poison, mystery, summoning, etc., he will try to explore them whenever he is interested. After all, acquiring knowledge and exploring the mysteries of magical elements are the inexhaustible driving force for magicians to continue to grow stronger.

Kai carefully used a magic quill to leave a line of notes in the corner of the page of 'Annotated Anka', and then closed the book. Looking at Lena who had also finished eating at the table, Kai said, "Let's not tidy up for today. Let's go to bed early

In the darkness, Kai gasped for breath after intense exercise and rubbed Lena's fragrant shoulder with his right hand. He has good night vision ability and can see a hint of crimson. After a moment of silence, Kai finally confessed everything to Lena.

Kai arrived in the dark region at the age of six and was taken away by Lena at the age of eight. He lived with Lena for twelve years, which accounted for three fifths of his short twenty year life. He really couldn't do anything to betray Lena. To be honest with everything also meant that Kai was prepared to turn against his senior sister.

What surprised Kai particularly was that after he told Lena everything, Lena appeared unusually calm. There wasn't much anger as he had expected, only a strange light flashed in her eyes, indicating that Lena's heart was not actually calm.

What are you planning to do? "Lena suddenly asked Kai. Kai had a premonition that if he said he wanted to fight his senior sister, Lena would definitely be an accomplice. Of course, Kai couldn't say that. Even if he had a falling out with his senior sister, the relationship between them would still be there. At most, they wouldn't chat as much as they used to.

Speaking of which, both the mentor Moses and the senior brother Zoro are very busy. Since joining Moses' sect, the one who has had the most conversations with Kai is senior sister Fei'er. I plan to refuse senior sister, "Kai said sincerely. Although Lena saw Kai's bright eyes in the darkness, she thought to herself that Kai hadn't lied to her.

But what Kai didn't expect was that after a moment, Lena shook her head first and said, "I think it's better for you to go there, it's just... and there won't be any loss

On the other hand, with this relationship between you and your senior sister, you will have a better life under the leadership of Moses in the future, "Lena said.

Lena's words made Kai look incredulous, and then she asked, "Do you mind this kind of thing

Lena glanced at Kai and said, "Of course I mind! If I had the strength of a formal black mage, I would definitely hang up your senior sister. But in the dark areas, we have to consider living first, don't we?" Lena shook her head.

The warmth of Huairilina made Kai's emotions particularly excited and surging. He tightly hugged the person in his arms and whispered in a voice that only Lena could hear, "For me, where you are is home." Kai's words turned the dry wood into a raging fire, and deep down, both of them couldn't control themselves. The suppressed gasps and the creaking sound of the bed kept moving, and tonight was another long and exhausting night.

Three days later, Kai arrived at Senior Sister Fei'er's dormitory building as scheduled. Fei'er's dormitory building is the last one in the apprentice dormitory area, with no more than thirty apprentices living here. Fei'er lives in the first room on the left side of the second floor. Kai came once before, two years ago, to help Fei'er move several large experimental instruments.

Senior Sister Fei'er's strength is definitely outstanding among senior apprentices, otherwise she wouldn't have received rewards from the academy several times. Of course, this strength includes Fei'er's magical props. Moses, the mentor, had three disciples under his front door, and Phil was the only one who dared to act coquettishly with him, even asking for magical props. Over the years, more than 70% of the "little things" that the mentor has casually refined have gone into Fei'er's pocket. Kai doesn't know exactly how many magical equipment Fei'er has. Just by looking at the advanced magical props that are comparable in quality to strong acid canes, she can see that she has three! Senior sister is definitely Bai Fumei in the apprentice circle of the Black Magic Academy. Fei'er said Kai picked a big bargain, which is not bragging.

Kai walked with a slightly heavy step, carrying a strange mentality, and came to Fei'er's door, tapping lightly. There are not many people in the entire dormitory building now, so Kai's knocking sound is particularly clear. Most of the people living in this building are senior apprentices and quasi magicians, and I don't know if any boring guy noticed this scene and secretly wondered why Kai, a mid-level apprentice, came here.

In just two or three seconds, the door in front of Kai quickly opened. Senior Sister Fei'er was wearing a white hollow out long dress that was suitable for home use, without wearing a mage robe. Kai was a little stunned at first sight. Kai's stunned expression made Fei'er blush. She quickly dragged Kai into the room and closed the door with a bang.

Kai guessed right, there really was a quasi wizard who noticed the situation here. That is a necromancer quasi mage who lives on the upper floor of Fei'er. He also has an identity - the eldest disciple of the official black mage Kosolon, and the senior apprentice Mike's senior brother who drew with Lena in the college assessment a few years ago.

Tsk tsk, this old woman can't hold back anymore

Who is that little guy? He looks delicate and tender

Poor Elrond, I once carried out college missions with you, and that woman was also our common pursuit goal. But twenty years later, you have already died, and I don't have much desire for that anymore. I didn't expect to take advantage of these new college kids, "the quasi wizard shook his head and said.

The quasi wizard who discovered the abnormality in the dormitory building downstairs no longer looks like a human. Master Kosolon likes to conduct amputation modification experiments with his apprentices and is famous throughout the Dark Arts Academy. Senior apprentice 'Hand of Death' Mike only has four arms, which is considered light. The quasi wizard in front of me has undergone a complete transformation of his organs and skin, almost from the inside out. Layers of chilling gray skin replaced the hair he should have had, and the length of the gray skin even exceeded his height. He stood there like a long haired weirdo. But it was precisely this gray skin that effectively concealed his ferocious and terrifying appearance. At least when he walked around the academy, he wouldn't immediately scare the elementary school students.

Despite this, the quasi wizard rarely leaves his dormitory building, and unless summoned by his mentor Kosolon, he hardly leaves his room a few times a year.

The slander of a boring quasi black magician did not affect the situation in the room downstairs. At this moment, Kai had already been placed in front of the bed by his senior sister.
