Chapter 768 The Seeds Planted

Jonas City

Upon hearing this, Cole was startled and immediately prepared to dispel the spatial spell he had not yet completed.

As a Silver-rank mage who had only recently come into contact with spatial magic, Cole originally thought that spatial magic was like the spells he had learned before.

It might be a little difficult, but it certainly won't be a problem for him!
However, reality delivered a cold slap in the face.

Since receiving the third-circle spatial spell [Teleport] from Jonas Magic Academy, Cole has devoted all his energy to mastering this spatial spell for nearly a month.

However, he made no progress for a long time.

Although he had already sensed the fluctuations in spatial energy, and was gradually getting used to it, progress was extremely slow.

Today, he and his friend Nelson came to this magical experimental site not far from their residence to continue practicing this spatial spell.

Just now, Cole had noticed that the spatial magic spell that was slowly forming in his hands suddenly became unstable. However, just as he was wondering whether to take a risk, he heard someone remind him.

He was startled, only then remembering the advice his teachers had given him.

"Cole, you have great talent."

The instructor, dressed in a dark blue magic robe, looked at Cole, sighed, and said:

"However, spatial magic is different from other elemental magic; without a teacher, it is extremely difficult to master."

"But you've already made your choice, so I won't say anything more."

"I just hope you will be careful, because there are far too many people who have had accidents while practicing spatial magic in the cultivation academy."

Cole was grateful for his mentor's guidance, but he remained confident in himself.

As one of the most outstanding students in his class at Jonas Magic Academy, he was not good with words, but he was very confident in his talent.

Otherwise, he, born into an ordinary family, would not have been chosen by the association's mentors and be able to come to Jonas City to study.

Moreover, [Instant Teleportation] is merely a third-level spell, the lowest-tier spatial spell.

At the same time, [Instant Teleport] is also a prerequisite spell for [Flash].

The difference between the two is that [Teleport] can only move inanimate objects, while [Flash] is a spell that allows the user to instantly move a short distance in space.

The third-circle spell was only a low-level spell, and Cole, already a top-tier Silver-rank mage, was very confident.

He felt that even if it took a little more time, he could learn the spell.

However, it turned out that spatial magic was not as simple as he had thought.

Cole felt the Teleportation spell model in his hand suddenly begin to go out of control; the restless magic broke free of his control, like a sign that an unstable bomb was about to explode.

The out-of-control magic even spread to his hands, causing Cole to feel a sense of separation spreading through them.

Finished!

Cole's mind went blank; he had absolutely no idea what to do.

"I already told you to be careful."

The same voice rang in his ears again, but this time it seemed to carry a hint of helplessness.

Just then, Cole suddenly felt a gentle magical force spreading from behind, enveloping the collapsing spell model in his hand.

Then, in Cole's eyes, the spell model that was about to turn into a bomb became as docile as a soldier seeing a general.

Their submissiveness was so great that it was as if they were saluting.

Then, Cole noticed that the element model in his hand had completely dissipated, as if nothing had happened.

who is it?

Cole quickly turned around and saw a handsome young man dressed in a gorgeous black outfit standing behind him, smiling at him.

Behind the boy was an extremely beautiful silver-haired girl, who was curiously looking him up and down.

So beautiful.
Cole was slightly taken aback, then realized what he was doing and quickly looked away, his face slightly flushed.

He looked at the boy and whispered:
"Thank you. Thank you for your help."

"Ah."

Li Si didn't say much, he just smiled and looked Cole up and down.

Cole felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Li Si.

Given his personality, he would have wanted to leave long ago under normal circumstances.

But now, someone has just reminded him, and has also saved him from the danger of the spell model collapsing.

Leaving like this seems a bit inappropriate.
Just then, the blond boy noticed the unusual situation and quickly came over.

A hint of amazement flashed in his eyes as he looked at Lis and Lisa, but he quickly looked away and asked Cole in a low voice what had happened.

Cole quietly explained to his friend.

Upon hearing this, the blond youth bowed solemnly to Li Si and said:
"Sir, thank you for your help."

“My name is Nelson, and this is my good friend Cole. We are both students at Jonas Magic Academy.”

"Cole is a little shy, please forgive him, and thank you again."

"thanks for your help."

Guided by his friend Nelson, Cole also bowed to Lis.

Nelson and Cole understood perfectly well that the boy's ability to see the impending collapse of the spell model in Cole's hand, and his skill in dispelling the turbulent magic, far surpassed that of the two of them.

Although the person in front of them looked very young, and seemed to be about the same age as them, his strength far surpassed that of the two of them.

A mage of intermediate or higher rank in the Gold tier?

Nelson pondered this in his mind, and his attitude became even more respectful.

Within the Pan-Continental Mage Association, even lower-ranking mages must show respect to higher-ranking mages.

This is not just a difference in strength, but also a sign of respect for the magical knowledge the other party possesses.

"It's all little things."

Li Si waved his hand, then asked the two men:

"It seems to me that you two are learning new magic?"

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Nelson spoke to Li Si on his own initiative:

"I'm practicing the sixth-circle spell [Higher Explosive], while Cole is practicing [Teleport]."

"Both of these spells were rewards we received from the academy, and we chose them ourselves."

"Working harder is definitely not a bad thing, but don't take risks when there's no one watching over you, understand?"

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Nelson bowed his head in response, glancing at Cole involuntarily.

He could easily understand the state of the world these days; it was clear that his friend had just been in a very dangerous situation.

If it weren't for this gentleman's help, he might have lost half his life.

Although this is Jonas City of the Pan-Continental Mage Association, where even the most serious injuries can be treated, the cost is beyond what the two of them can afford.

If conditions were truly more favorable, they wouldn't be practicing magic in the city's public experimental grounds.

Cole, who was standing next to him, nodded quickly, his face still showing a hint of lingering fear.

He could sense that if it weren't for this person's help, his hands might have been blown off, or even worse.

This is absolutely unacceptable to Kerr.

"Ah."

Li Si nodded, turned around, and was about to leave with Lisa. Nelson, seeing this, couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Regardless, the person before me is quite powerful.

Moreover, they should have mastered advanced spatial magic.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have noticed the problem with the spatial spell model in Cole's hand.

During this time, he had been watching the difficulties that Cole encountered.

Although he really wanted to help his friend, he really didn't know what to do.

Spatial magic is considered one of the most powerful and difficult types of magic to master.

There are very few mages who have mastered spatial magic; the vast majority are Gold-rank mages.

The price he would have to pay to receive guidance from a high-level mage was simply beyond his means.

Although Nelson's family was much better off than Cole's, he was still just a minor nobleman in one of the kingdoms under the Pancontinental Mage Association.

There's really nothing I can do.

Today, Nelson saw a glimmer of hope thanks to the kind help of such a high-level mage.

Since the other party is willing to help Cole, wouldn't they kindly offer Cole some guidance as well?
Nelson wasn't sure, but he knew that given Cole's taciturn nature, even if he desperately wanted help, he wouldn't know how to ask for it.

Simply!
Nelson closed his eyes, bowed again to Li Si, and said respectfully:
"Sir, I apologize for bothering you, but I wonder if you could offer some guidance to Cole?"

"He is one of the best students in the academy, and he certainly won't let you down."

Cole, who was still hesitating, was startled and quickly looked at his friend Nelson.

After a moment, he and Nelson bowed together and said in a hoarse voice:

"I hope to receive your guidance."

Li Si looked at the two people in front of him and smiled with some interest.

For him, instructing the two men was effortless, but he didn't say much.

"Cole, right?"

Li Si looked at the boy with slightly messy short brown hair and said with a smile:

"The most important thing to master spatial magic is not to be impatient."

"Your progress is already quite good. Next, you need to gradually feel the changes in the surrounding space, instead of just focusing on the stability of the spell model."

After saying that, Li Si and Lisa disappeared from the spot.

Seeing this, Nelson straightened up, somewhat regretful.

He was certain that the gentleman from before was a very powerful mage, but unfortunately he didn't teach Cole a few more words.

Nelson turned to look at Cole, intending to offer a few words of comfort, but then he saw Cole's eyes fixed on the spot where Li Si had just disappeared.

Cole had a strange feeling.

He seemed to clearly sense a strange fluctuation at the spot where that gentleman had just disappeared.

He had vaguely sensed this strange fluctuation when he was constructing the [Instant Teleportation] spatial spell model.

However, the fluctuations he caused while constructing the spell model were like a wisp of rain on a calm surface of water, almost imperceptible.

The ripples caused by where that gentleman just disappeared were like the surging waves created when a boulder is thrown into the water.

This feeling instantly captivated Cole, who had been immersed in spatial magic for days, causing his mind to race as he tried to grasp that sensation.

Cole understood perfectly well that this was the real "guidance" that the gentleman had left him.

This is such a precious opportunity, we absolutely cannot miss it!

Seeing his friend's somewhat mesmerized expression, Nelson blinked and didn't disturb Cole.

Although we don't know what happened, it's definitely a good thing for Cole.

Fortunately, Nelson didn't continue practicing his previous spells and instead stayed by Cole's side.

"Li Si, are you very interested in those two people from earlier?"

Lisa tilted her head, looked at Cole and Nelson below, and asked Lis with some confusion.

"A little bit, indeed."

Li Si looked at Cole, who was lost in thought, and nodded with some satisfaction.

"Don't you think this Cole has a pretty good talent for spatial magic?"

As a legendary mage who inherited the [Flame of Judgment] and was skilled in spatial magic, Li Si's eyesight was naturally extraordinary.

He had noticed Cole's excellent spatial affinity when he saw him trying to construct the [Teleport] spell model.

Although Cole's technique is still quite immature, with this talent, his future achievements in spatial magic will certainly be remarkable.

Just as Li Si said, Cole was clearly a bit too impatient, which led to the dangerous situation that occurred earlier.

To master spatial magic, the most important thing is to sense the existence of spatial fluctuations.

This is the most important prerequisite; otherwise, no matter how much effort you put in, you will only achieve half the result.

A month?
Cole's talent is quite remarkable to have reached that level.

This is because neither of them received proper instruction in advanced magic, which is why they were unaware of this important information.

Therefore, Li Si, seeing the opportunity, offered some pointers.

Although he hadn't checked Cole's stats, Li Si was certain that Cole's talent in spatial magic was at least at a high level.

In the future, he will at least be a Gold-rank mage skilled in spatial magic!
"Have it?"

Upon hearing this, Lisa glanced down at Cole a few more times.

"It's... alright, I guess?"

That's Lisa being kind; she thinks Cole's talent isn't as good as hers!

You should know that she is skilled in elemental energy manipulation magic.

His spatial magic is only average.

"Ha ha!"

Looking at Lisa's expression, Li Si could easily guess what she was thinking, and he smiled as he ruffled her hair.

"How can he compare to you?"

Lisa's magical talent is quite terrifying.

Leaving aside Evocation spells, Lisa can easily master other types of spells by drawing inferences from similar cases.

What's more, she's already a legendary mage.

These low-level spells were like child's play to her.

However, as Lisa said...

Cole and Nelson are indeed talented, but they are not that important to Li Si.

In his past life, he did not recall any legendary mages named Cole and Nelson.

Even if they existed, it would take a lot of effort to cultivate them. Although Li Si has the time now, he doesn't need to dedicate himself to these things.

Consider it a seed planted casually.

For him, the upcoming meeting with the Third Chancellor, Astral Weaver, Arkansas Tarindra, was even more important.

I wonder what surprise awaits him?
Li Si looked up at the sky, as if he were looking at something.
