Chapter 350 Magic Training (2)



What will happen the next day is still a mystery to Arty, Billy, and Adrien.

That's because Saeldir suddenly decided to play a prank on them and not tell them the truth. The only thing he could say was that what they were doing tomorrow would be tough.

So, that caused them to return from the dojo in an anxious state. But Billy's state of feeling was somewhat different from theirs.

Billy also felt the same anxiety. But he also felt excitement in his heart. Excitement because even though he will undergo tough training, he will become more adept at using Magic.

The car was only filled with silence because they were still busy imagining what they would do tomorrow. Erend who was driving glanced at them one by one.

"You guys all right?" Erend asked.

"What do you think?" Adrien asked back rhetorically. After asking that question, a long sigh escaped his mouth.

Erend snorted and let out a chuckle seeing Adrien's reaction. "Don't worry too much, Captain. You have two great mentors."

"I'm not worrying about our mentors. But what kind of training they're going to give us," Adrien replied in the same gloomy tone.

Erend saw Adrien sitting behind him in the rearview mirror. His Captain was staring out the window looking at the night with a worried face.

"This is the first time I've seen you look like that, Captain. You're really worried about tomorrow's practice, aren't you?" Erend asked.

Adrien took a deep breath. "You know that this magical power is very powerful and dangerous. We also know how it affects humans who awaken it for the first time.

So, I was feeling a bit anxious because I didn't know what could happen. Moreover, the longer it takes, our training will definitely get tougher."

Adrien expressed his anxiety. Billy and Erend, who have been with him for a very long time, are facing life-and-death situations. But this was the first time they heard the Captain utter such worried words.

"This Magic can make us go mad. I... just afraid that I will do something that will hurt my family," Adrien added.

When he added those words, a similar pang of anxiety came through Billy and Arty's hearts.

Even though they were trained by Elves who definitely had abundant knowledge and experience regarding Magic, they still felt anxiety.

Something could have gone wrong. And it will cost them something big, that is the safety of their family.

"Let's put our trust in Aurdis and Saeldir, yeah?" Erend tries to assure them. "They won't let anything bad happen to you."

"Right," Billy said in a more cheerful tone. "Let's just believe in them, Captain."

Hear what they both said. Adrien nodded. "Yeah. I'll believe in both of them and try my best. After all, that's all we can do."

Arty, who was next to Erend, looked at him and gave a faint smile. Erend who saw that felt proud of his little sister who could act strong in the midst of her anxiety.

The next day comes. They came back to the dojo at noon after Arty came home from school. Meanwhile, the clones of Erend, Billy, and Adrien carry out their jobs at the military base.

Saeldir and Aurdis were already waiting inside the dojo. But this time in Aurdis' hands were three small bottles of blue liquid. The liquid seemed to give off a bright and sparkling light when Aurdis moved it.

The bottles certainly caught the attention of Arty, Billy, and Adrien. They immediately knew that whatever liquid was in the bottle was something they needed to practice using Magic for today.

"What is that?" Adrien asked while looking at the bottles in Aurdis' hands.

"These are elixirs that will make it easier for your bodies to adapt to Magic," Aurdis replied.

"Can we use it to make it easier for the humans of this world to use Magic?" Erend asked when he saw an opportunity.

"No." but Aurdis shook her head. "This Elixir can only work on people with at least Magic control on the same level as Arty, Billy, and Adrien.

Most of the humans in this world don't have as high control of Magic as they do. So, when they consume the elixir, that will only lead to a disaster."

Erend had expected that much. He just wanted to make sure. If there was anything that might reduce the risk of Magic awakening harm to the inhabitants of this world, he would take it.

But it turns out, there isn't an easy way. Erend just nodded to Aurdis after hearing her explanation.

Aurdis handed the three bottles to Arty, Billy, and Adrien. They immediately drank it though still accompanied by a little doubt. Because they had to do it and there was no other way.

After that, Saeldir told them to start meditating like yesterday. The three immediately sat cross-legged and began their meditation.

They enter the trance stage in just a few seconds. A bright blue aura emitted from their bodies and created a kind of barrier.

"What's happening right now?" Erend asked. He was sure that it wasn't anything bad. But Erend still wanted to know.

"It's like I told you before. Their bodies are absorbing Magic and starting to get used to the new power coursing through their bodies," Aurdis answered her question. "Are you worried?"

"No. I'm sure they'll be fine. I'm just curious," Erend said.

Suddenly, a call from Tut rang in his head.

[ "Erend, you have an Urgent Quest to handle." ]

'Alright.'

"I have to go."

Erend's sudden words made Aurdis and Saeldir turn toward him with confused looks.

"What happened? Where?" Aurdis asked.

Erend scratched his head. "You know about my power. I will explain another time. Now I have to go."

Erend walked away from them and told Tut to open a portal for him. The portal opened suddenly, its appearance surprised Aurdis and Saeldir.

"I will be right back." Erend stepped into the portal and it immediately disappeared.

Aurdis and Saeldir exchanged glances. Their eyes expressed the same confusion.
