I just became a mage, and my skills have become supernatural? What the heck?

"Boom!"

As night fell, dark clouds covered the sky above Jianghai City.

A bolt of lightning tore through the sky, illuminating the luxurious Lin family villa.

On the second floor of the villa, in a long corridor covered with soft wool carpet.

Lin Mo had just finished dinner and was walking towards his bedroom with a toothpick in his mouth.

"Hurry! It's going to rain heavily!"

"The clothes on the terrace haven't been brought in yet!"

Two young maids jogged past.

Upon seeing Lin Mo, he stopped and bowed.

"Good evening, young master!"

"Okay, be careful not to fall."

Lin Mo casually replied.

He glanced at the sky outside the window and muttered something:

"This weather is so unpredictable, it changes in an instant. Looks like tonight is the perfect time to stay in bed and play games."

Push open the bedroom door.

Lin Mo lay down on the sofa.

comfortable.

He opened the profession panel and glanced at the experience bar.

[Level: Lv.19 (99%)]

tsk...

Lin Mo smacked his lips and shook his head in dissatisfaction.

It's been stuck for so long, what's one more step?

The higher the level, the less realistic it is to level up in the wild.

Fortunately, it's fully automatic, so it's acceptable.

"Little Fire, why haven't you reached level 20 yet? Did some mother fireball lure you away?"

Lin Mo made a joke.

A few seconds later, a furious response came from the fireball spell.

[Fireball Spell's Roar: What's all the noise about! Are you trying to kill me? Still calling me Mother Fireball?]

[Fireball Technique: With no woman in my heart, my spells are naturally divine! Women will only affect the power of my explosion!]

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow:

"Then why have you been dawdling for so long without making a move?"

[Fireball Spell] sneered: I was just luring in some monsters. That's enough. Now I'll show you what art is. Art is... an explosion!

Before he could finish speaking...

[Defeat 12 Goblin Throwers, gain 3680 experience points]

[Defeat 13 Goblin Warriors, gain 3710 experience points]

[Defeat 10 Goblin Knights, gain 3550 experience points]

[Killed...]

The screen was flooded with kill notifications.

Immediately afterwards, a golden light rose in the bedroom, enveloping Lin Mo.

Congratulations! Your level has increased to Lv.20!

"They're here!"

Lin Mo's eyes lit up, and he suddenly sat up.

With a flick of his wrist, the skill book he had prepared beforehand appeared in his hand.

[Skill Book: Lightning Strike (Basic)]

Lin Mo took a deep breath, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"study!"

With a thought, the skill book transformed into a purple stream of light and entered Lin Mo's brow.

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, it was as if a thunderclap had exploded.

Congratulations! You have successfully learned the basic lightning skill – Lightning Strike (Lv.1)!

[Lightning Strike: Unleashes a bolt of lightning, dealing lightning damage to the target and has a chance to paralyze them. Cooldown: 3 seconds.]

In the skill bar, there is a new skill with a lightning bolt icon, exuding a sharp and aloof aura.

The first thing to react was Earth Shield.

[The Earth Shield Spell user curiously peeked out: Huh? A newbie?]

The fireball spell, located several kilometers away, also noticed it.

[Fireball spell instantly alerts: Hmm? A newbie?]

[Fireball sneered: Hmph, so this is the lightning element that claims to have the highest single-target burst damage? Just wait, I'll go back and show you what I'm made of.]

[Fireball Spell Status Update: Returning at full speed]

Lin Mo frowned and began to teach the fireball technique.

"Hey Xiao Huo, we're all family, is this how you welcome a newcomer? Let me explain what that means."

[Earth Shield immediately chimed in: Exactly! Master is right!]

[The Earth Shield spell looked at the new Lightning Strike icon with an innocent expression: Um... Lightning... Third Brother Lightning? Hello! You can call me Little Earth. From now on, we're family. Let's love each other!]

[The Fireball spell scoffed: Family? Hmph, if you want to become my family, you must first gain my approval!]

[Earth Shield Technique weakly retorted: Big brother, that's not right. Lin Mo is our master. Since our master said we're family, we should listen to him...]

[Fireball Spell Interrupted in a fit of rage: Shut up! I am destined to be a forbidden spell, and I will never be on the same side as the weak.]

Lin Mo sighed.

This family is truly a handful.

at this time,

The newly appeared lightning bolt icon flashed once.

[Lightning Strike: So noisy.]

His voice was cold and clear, carrying a strong sense of disdain and arrogance.

Lin Mo was taken aback.

Huh?

This new guy is quite unique.

[The "Fireball" spell instantly exploded: What did you say?! How dare you complain about me being noisy!]

[Fireball Spell: My entire body is engulfed in flames: I am destined to become a noble being of forbidden magic! Who do you think you are, you newcomer, Spark? How dare you disrespect me!]

[Lightning Strike Technique: Idiot.]

【Fireball Technique: !!!】

[Fireball Spell trembled with rage: Fine! Very well! You dare call me an idiot?!]

[Fireball - Burning Fury: Today I'll show you what true damage ceiling looks like!]

However, the Lightning Strike spell did not react at all to the rage of the Fireball spell.

[Fireball was even angrier: Why aren't you saying anything? Weren't you so arrogant? Giving up now?]

[The Earth Shield spell, its voice trembling with tears, cried out: "Stop arguing!"]

Just then, the "Lightning Strike" spell spoke.

[Lightning Strike Technique: Only the incompetent and weak bark like mad dogs.]

The Fireball spell completely failed.

[Fireball: I'm furious! I'm furious! I'll challenge it! I'll prove that in this house, fire is the only true god!]

Lin Mo rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

This skill is really giving him a lot of trouble.

"Alright, Little Fire, calm down. You've already mastered intermediate-level skills, while Little Lei just arrived. Isn't this bullying?"

The term "fireball" seemed to make some sense.

[The Fireball spell magnanimously waved its flame: "How about I use only the basic Fireball spell?"]

Before Lin Mo could nod.

[The "Lightning Strike" spell let out a soft scoff: "Heh, no need."]

"Lightning Strike Technique" said calmly: "Use your strongest move, bring it on."

[Lightning Strike Technique: Anyway... the outcome is the same.]

Lin Mo: "..."

That was a perfect 10/10 for showing off!

[Fireball Technique's enraged laughter: Hahahaha! Good! Very good! See? Too arrogant. I must show him what it means to have skill beyond skill.]

"Alright, alright, let's go to the backyard then. There are training dummy tests over there."

Lin Mo stood up from the sofa.

He was actually quite curious too.

Is this ridiculously boastful lightning strike technique actually based on real skill, or is it just a blatant attempt to show off?

Lin Mo walked to the window and glanced out.

"Boom!"

The muffled thunder seemed to grow even louder.

Dark clouds loomed overhead, as if the sky were about to collapse at any moment.

"This awful weather, it feels like it's about to rain."

"Let's finish this quickly. The backyard is open-air, so we don't get soaked."
