Chapter 253: Elf of Fire Elements (Part 2)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“They wouldn’t be so nervous if it was only about the volcanic magic array. The original intention of those six grade-10 mages in building this array was to nurture a fire elf, an elf of fire elements.”

“The creation of life seems to be in the domain of god.” After being informed of the thoughts of those six grade-10 mages, Saleen felt that they must have been crazy.

“Once a mage exceeds grade-9, they lose their last bit of respect for god.” Jason sighed. The mages of the present were weaker than their ancestors, but even more arrogant.

“Is that really true?” Saleen asked. Jason did not seem to be joking. There were magic beasts in the world that had been created by Raphael, but they had likely been caught from other dimensions and sent there. Although an elf of fire elements was very different from a human, it was still intelligent life.

“Of course it’s true.” The volcanic magic array had possessed the aura of life for over a hundred years now. According to the original plan of those six grade-10 mages, the creation of the elf of fire elements was nearly completed.

“Now I understand!”

Saleen could understand why Jason was indecisive after hearing about the six element space. The elf of fire elements would be the safest contract creature of all before it formed intelligence. Any sorcerer with an elf of fire elements could release the power of level-9 magic as they wished.

Even if a contract could not be signed with the elf of fire elements, this elf could be used to build magic equipment of the highest level, which were also half artifacts. If the elf was powerful enough, it could build three to five pieces of that equipment, or at least two pieces at minimum.

The search for the interdimensional space might not succeed, but the elf of fire elements was on this island. How could Jason give up such a powerful thing?

“Saleen, the catching of the elf of fire elements requires three grade-9 sorcerers or thirty-six sorcerers no lower than grade-7. The last grade-9 sorcerer of this island has passed away and there aren’t enough grade-7 sorcerers. Now Alchemy City, Devil’s Horn, and Sky Island all want to share the benefits. If all the mages of Alchemy City demand that Sregl Island be opened, the mages of this island cannot refuse. ”

“Is there an agreement involved in this?” Saleen found the loophole in his words.

“Yes. It was the decision of those six great sorcerers to make Sregl Island a closed island. Soon, the period of one thousand years will have passed. If we cannot catch the elf of fire elements within seven months, we won’t be able to refuse their requirement. But we can’t gather thirty-six sorcerers in seven months.”

“Teacher, how can we catch the elf of fire elements? Is a certain number of sorcerers a must?”

Saleen thought about Lex’s god ring. The protective power of that thing was much stronger than a magic shield cast by a sorcerer.

“The elf of fire elements is born in the lava, and even sorcerers cannot approach it. These thirty-six sorcerers are actually needed to control the magic array. Without full control of the enormous mage array, we cannot control the power of the volcano either. Unless we can get help from an artifact, we will have the grade-8 sorcerer, the strongest on the island, go into the volcanic vent and catch the elf directly.”

“An artifact?” Saleen thought for a moment and said to Jason, “Teacher, I have an artifact in my hands, but I do not dare bring it out. I am afraid that the people from the Holy See will know and cause problems for us once I take it out.”

“Really? What is it?” Jason had not expected his student to be so rich by this time. He had mentioned artifacts only to discover that Saleen unbelievably had one with him.

“It’s the Seal of Divine Power. Raphael was severely injured by this artifact. It has the imprint of the Lord of Glory, which can be concealed in the interdimensional space, but not here. I am afraid that the Holy See has its way to detect the waves of the artifact’s power.”

“Saleen, are you saying the pope does not have all three artifacts by now?”

“Exactly. This artifact was inside of Raphael’s body even after his death.”

Jason pondered this. If the pope does not have all of the artifacts, the strength of the Holy See has been lowered by at least ten percent. Concealing the artifact and keeping it a secret to the people of the Holy See will be an advantage for the mages. It is not worth exposing the location of the artifact merely for an elf of fire elements.

“Saleen, don’t take it out. I will take care of that artifact after we arrive in the interdimensional space. The imprint of god can be erased.”

“Teacher, so you agree to go to the interdimensional space?” Saleen was delighted.

“I can go. But only after we catch the elf of fire elements will I be able to persuade others to leave together.”

“Of course, Teacher. Lex is still outside. Do you want to talk to her?”

“Is she your friend?”

“Yes.”

“Then she can stay in my magic tower. Now, let her in.”

Lex had grown impatient waiting outside of the magic tower, and was relieved when she suddenly heard Jason’s voice. The gate of the magic tower was opened again. Lex and the others walked into the magic tower and stepped onto the teleportation portal following Jason’s orders.

“Saleen, I have no students aside from you. They can stay here, but cannot walk around freely. If they need anything, just speak into the magic sound array.”

Jason did not meet with Lex right away. He arranged a place for her to stay and then continued to speak with Saleen.

“Saleen, you cannot help with the matter of the elf of fire elements, so don’t worry about than. I have a question for you. What are your plans for the future? Do you want to stay on this island and practice? Or do you want to leave with Lex and help her build a more powerful county?”

“Teacher, Lex is not trying to build a powerful county. She just wants to provide people with more opportunities to learn magic.”

Jason smiled, his eyes filled with wisdom. “Saleen, aren’t those the same thing?”

Aren’t those the same thing? Saleen was enlightened by those words. It was impossible to complete Lex’s dream just by relying on herself alone. To have more people learn magic and truly understand the world required a county as a source of power.

“Teacher, I had the idea of building more cities like Alchemy City, but not as closed and conventional.”

“Conventional? Saleen, do you think mages were like this in ancient times? Back then, the imparting of magic knowledge was open and magic books did not have sky-high prices as they do now. Mages nowadays are different from the mages of ancient times. They are not conventional. They just want to keep their money.”

Saleen did not respond. He thought, Teacher, you have over ten thousand books in your own spatial equipment, but have never made them known to the public.

Jason seemed to know his thoughts and laughed, “If I take those out, how many people would be able to understand them?”

Saleen blushed. Most people were illiterate and those magic books were written in complicated words. Even enlightening them would be difficult. Saleen himself was also not self-taught. Had Jason not instructed him at the very beginning, he could have taken the wrong path and suffered from magic backlash.

“Teacher, let’s talk about the matter concerning the elf of fire elements. I might not be able to help, but I have many good items with me, and so does Lex. If she wants your help, she will be willing to pay the price. She is a grade-6 mage and certainly understands this.”

“I’ve heard of her. She is already a grade-6 mage?

“Yes. And she will advance to a sorcerer within ten years.”

“A sorcerer under the age of thirty is rare!” Jason exclaimed. He said nothing more about her, and had Saleen put his collection on the table piece by piece.

Jason did not know what to say upon seeing all the materials and equipment taken out by Saleen. When he had accepted Saleen as his student, he had not even had enough food to survive. Now, Saleen was richer than most of the mages on this island with his collection.

Jason did not accept anything from Saleen, but gave Saleen instructions on how to use every piece.

“Saleen, this demon set is not eye-catching, but is of top quality. These pieces of equipment can be used by you even after you have become a grade-10 mage, particularly the demonic spellbook. Use them well and familiarize yourself with storing and releasing magic. This kind of material is hard to find nowadays, and is most suitable for you, a mage with defective magic chords.”

“The Ring of Gifts, goddess’ necklace, and the shenhe were not rare equipment in the past, but are hard to find at this time. However, your refinement of the shenhe is a bit wasteful. Lex is right in her opinion that making the shenhe into a water puppet would release its full power. You cannot understand right now, but you will once you reach grade-9. Having a water puppet of the same grade fighting side by side with you will be like carrying a small magic tower with you.”

“The magic of the crystal ring seems oddly effective within short distances. Saleen, you cannot rely on this magic to advance. Your performance of the Flying spell is good and you will be surprised if you continue to practice. These three magic books are good. They can make up for the defects in your magic chords if used just right, and will deepen your understanding of elemental conversion. ”

“I cannot comprehend your badge. But I am warning you, do not let anyone else know about its existence. I’ll consult materials that date back a thousand years. Your last name was not common even at that time, and I should be able to find the origin of this badge in those materials.”

“The witcher spider is a good item and can support you in combat even when you become a sorcerer. Use these variant fully constructed puppet with caution. Don’t take them out in front of people from the Holy See, and if you do, have them tell no one about the secret of the puppets.”

“This scroll can be used across two grades, but don’t think about casting level-10 magic at grade-8. Your body cannot take it. Wait until you have become a grade-9 sorcerer, and produce the scroll then.”

“Now that you have a dragonshard, don’t save up those high-level magic nuclei. Try to find the right equipment to inlay them. When there is no need for magic chords, your mental power will be your only advantage over others.”

Jason held Saleen’s equipment in his hands and explained them to him piece by piece, which warmed Saleen’s heart. Saleen decided in his mind that he needed to have Lex do her best in catching the elf of fire elements at any cost. If Lex could not use the god’s ring, perhaps she had other equipment that she could use. She had not only obtained magic nuclei and gold coins from her trip to the temple of the goddess, had she?
