Shang could only look at Rela Spirit Spring with raised eyebrows. He hadn't expected that reaction. Some of the people that knew Rela only chuckled a bit, and Shang pulled his hand back. Then, he walked back to Jerald without saying anything else. It was a bit direct, but he could deal with people not liking him. No reason to make a big deal out of it. Then, the last two people stepped through the portal. A young woman with short green hair and another young woman with long light-grey hair stepped…-

A person stepped through the new portal shortly after it appeared. "Seems like the guys from the Grandmountain Kingdom are here," Agon said with a snort. Shang and Jerald looked over with interest. They hadn't met the leaders of the Grandmountain Kingdom yet, and they wondered what they would be like. The first person that stepped through was a thin, brown-haired man that looked to be in his thirties. He was about 165 cm tall, and he had several bags under his eyes. Shang thought that he looked like a…

Shang landed in front of Agon's castle and entered. As always, the castle was empty except for the throne room. Shang entered the throne room and saw Agon and Jerald talking about random things. Agon and Jerald nodded at Shang. "Let's go," Agon said as he walked to his throne. Instead of sitting down, Agon stopped in front of the throne and summoned his special Communication Crystal. He extended it towards the back of the throne and held it there for about five seconds. WHOOOM! A wave of Mana washed…

"Well done!" Callen said with a wide and pride-filled smile. "You made tremendous strides, and I think you can manage everything on your own now." Shang nodded. For once, he was also smiling. "To think that you managed to master my Spell in only ten weeks. I'm genuinely shocked. Originally, I thought we would be here for ten months to two years," Callen said. "Thank you, Callen," Shang said. "This is not thanks to me. This is all you, Shang," Callen said. Callen had stopped calling Shang Duke Sword a…

"No, the Equilateral Rune goes on top of the Trinominal Rune," Callen said as he pointed at two Runes inside a Magic Circle between Shang and him. Shang rubbed the bridge of his nose in stress and started from the beginning again. There was so much to remember and look out for! It was like Shang had to do a complex equation while talking with someone and leading them to complete a yet unknown part of the equation. He had to keep so many different things in mind. He had to draw the Rune correctly,…

Professor Callen first performed a couple of tests to see how good Shang's spellcasting was. It couldn't be that bad, right? It was, in fact, that bad. Callen had expected that even warriors knew the basics at least, but he was mistaken. Shang's spellcasting ability could dominate a Mid Apprentice, but a Peak Apprentice would easily outclass him. Callen only took a deep breath and slowly released it. This would be a lot of work. While Shang was learning under Callen, Jerald returned from the…

When Shang confirmed that this was the problem, Callen started to stroke his beard in thought. "I want to alter my pathways," Shang said. Callen's brows furrowed at that point, but he kept thinking. "It's risky," Callen said after several seconds. "From what I've heard, the passageways form during your breakthrough, and they have essentially been created by your Path, correct?" Shang nodded. "This means that these Mana passageways are a natural extension of your Path. Messing with them might weaken…

An older man dressed in white robes sat behind a table with several books and sheets of paper. The room looked like the typical study a True Mage would have, filled with books and plenty of arcane trinkets. Right now, the older man was waiting for his client. This one was going to be a big one. Yesterday, the Mage had been contacted by a Peak True Mage with an offer. Someone needed his expertise, but in exchange, he would need to sign a confidentiality contract and undergo another Mind Read. Something…

Sword highlighted some things it was feeling during the different attacks, and Shang understood what the Wind Blade Seeds were doing after listening to Sword's results. When Shang was training, Sword also always gave feedback. Just like when Shang had been at the Soldier Stage, Sword was telling him when a strike felt good or bad. Shang also felt if attacks were good or bad, but he couldn't be completely accurate. As the weapon, Sword essentially was a participant, but it could also see the attack from…

Shang spent the next couple of hours going to different Zones and harvesting resources. He had found a couple of interesting resources in the book, and he managed to collect a couple of them. Sadly, not all the useful resources could be found within the Skythunder Kingdom. After Shang collected all of that, he contacted Jerald and asked how he should consume them. Jerald was an experienced Mage, and he knew the basics of preparing such treasures. "Well, we Mages mainly use Mana and Essence Gathering…
