Chapter 40: Variance Magic
Chapter 40: Variance Magic
Finally, after a long wait, a woman entered wearing a witch-like costume with a purple hat and a one-piece outfit that tightly accentuated her body, revealing a seductive figure that perfectly displayed her cleavage.
The purple hat covered half her face and the other half covered by a veil which made her face very difficult to see.
Aur frowned when he saw this, and almost all the boys' attention was instantly drawn to the seductive body of the woman.
"Why are all the teachers so young and beautiful, as if the academy intentionally wants it..." Aur's eyes narrowed as he thought of this.
The class became silent as they waited for her to speak, but she never opened her mouth, lazily looking at everyone with her deadpan gaze.
Finally, she opened her cherry lips to speak a single sentence and sat back in her jade bed.
"Look at the front of your paper."
"Huh?" Aur frowned when he heard this, and the others were also confused. After all, he wasn't the only one who had looked at the paper before.
Still, he continued to look at the paper, to his surprise, text started to appear on the paper out of nowhere. By the end, there were countless lines of text inscribed in tiny letters.
Aur's eyes narrowed as he looked at the text.
"Fire elemental magic - a set of fire-attributed spells,"
"Wood elemental magic - a set of wood-attributed spells,"
"Soul magic - a set of spells to control the soul,"
"Five elemental magic - a set of basic four elemental magic combined together" (complex)
….
There were thousands of spells with a basic description for each of them.
"Hmm..." Aur frowned, seeing this.
"Don't touch the text on the paper; the moment you do that is your only chance to pick which attributed magic you want to use."
The witch's voice resounded throughout the classroom, making everyone nervous as they carefully read the details.
However, Aur had uncaring eyes. He had already decided which spell he would pick, so even though all these spells were useless for him, he still needed to pick one.
Aur randomly chose the five elemental spells and pressed on the text.
The moment he did, information about the entire spell was directly imprinted in his mind. His red pupils dilated from the massive influx of information, which felt like a flood in his head.
After some time, Aur gradually recovered from the massive flood of information and looked around. Most of the people had chosen their spells and were in a daze, just as Aur had been earlier.
After everyone had awakened from their dazed state, the woman finally stood up from her seat and looked at everyone with a glint in her eyes.
"Since you have chosen your spell, you will be given a month to inscribe it in your mental space. If you can't, your ranking will be denoted, with your resources being cut in half or even less," she muttered.
The children were shocked when they heard this.
"If you want advice, you will have to pay tuition fees to a specified teacher." The witch looked deeply at everyone and left.
"Eh, the class has ended already."
Everyone was surprised as they saw the woman walk out with bated breath.
Suddenly, an old man entered the room, wearing a black coat with glasses on. He was the same man who had previously overseen the awakening test. However, now he was all smiles, with a kind expression on his face.
"You will be escorted to the door rooms you will be staying in. It will be arranged randomly, and if you want to take a personal lesson, you can meet with the personal servant and order them to explain it to you," the old man gently announced as he left.
Everyone got up from their seats and started to leave with strange expressions on their faces.
Aur and Leo, along with their friends, all left at the same time, guided by their servants to their respective door rooms.
As they were walking, Leo suddenly spoke with a strange glint in his eyes.
"Brother Aur, looks like we will have quite a hard time ahead..."
Aur just nodded his head, remaining silent, lost in deep thought.
Seeing this, Leo shrugged, but a strange glint flashed in his eyes as he observed everyone.
Aur soon separated from the group and went to his door room, guided by his Latina maid.
The room had a rather bland, black and white texture that created a strong contrast in color.
The walls were divided, with one side painted black and the other side white. There was a medium-sized brown wooden bed and a study table with a table lamp on it.
Aur looked around with a smile on his face.
"Now I can finally imprint the spell, but I need to mask my own spell with it. I either use something to conceal my spell's attribute or show the verification of the spell..." A small frown appeared on Aur's face as he thought about it.
Although he had already made backups for it, Aur wasn't a hundred percent sure it would work.
"Either way, I should start to imprint that spell first," he muttered as the spell for the five elemental spells went to the back of his mind.
Aur carefully took out a ragged book and brushed away all the dust. This book was the one he had taken from that blinding light room inside the dungeon.
There were some basic introductions in the book about what the Variance Spell was and some sort of story.
[My Name is Asmond Diablo, and I was born in the small town of... Everyone scorned me and made fun of me as the greatest failure among the Wizards... My research for the Variance Spell has been my greatest and the worst invention as of yet. To the one who is reading this, I sincerely and humbly request you not to practice this spell.]
After these words, the page was stained with blood.
"Is he trying to make another Wizard practise his spell and complete it?" Aur mused with a sneer on his face.
Reverse psychology was a very interesting thing: the more you make a person deny something, the more they would want it, and if you easily give it to them, they would frown and not take it instead.
Of course, this was not universally correct, but most of the time, it held true.
Aur looked at the definition of the Variance Spell and could roughly summarize it into his own conclusion.
In a normal magic book, there were countless spells, all with the same attribute, and the vital spell that they formed would perfectly complement and even strengthen themselves, since they shared the same attribute.
The research on these spells was usually complete up to at least Tier Four of the Wizard realm.
Variance Magic, on the other hand, was more like a subcategory of a normal magic book, with derived spells that were more powerful than the average ones.
However, there was a certain problem. Most of these spells were incomplete and didn't have complementary spells to strengthen the vital spell. They simply hadn't been studied deeply enough.
Making it an unexplored territory.
