Super Dimensional Wizard

Chapter 56 Book Collection or Beating

Angel opened the first page of the book and was surprised to see a map of the Kingdom of Eternal Night.

In the Canary Empire, any type of map is an absolute military secret, and non-military personnel, even if they had inadvertently got a map, they will receive a heavy criminal sentence. But on the first page of the book, the map shown was drawn magnanimously. And clearly shows high mountains to the deep basin, even the scaling values of it are extremely detailed.

He wondered if the military power of the Kingdom of Eternal Night is strong enough to be fearless of any challenge, or the area around is so peaceful that there will be no war among their neighbors?

The Kingdom of Eternal Night is shaped like a tortoise on its back. According to the scale shown in the lower left corner of the map, Angel is surprised that a the Kingdom of Eternal Night, which is considered small, is six times larger than Old Land! Angel continued to look down, followed by an introduction to the Kingdom of Eternal Night. Kingdom of Eternal Night is one of the great countries in the southern region, and its territory is not large among the great powers.

In the southern region, this country among the many powers is not big?! All of a sudden, Angel felt that there was a reason why the people of Big 6 refer to Old Land as ‘Edge Island’. Compared with this “small country”, the Kingdom of Eternal Night, Old Land compared to Big 6 is really a small island.

Angel also noticed that there are traffic lines extending in all directions from the map of the Kingdom of Eternal Night. At first, he thought it was markings for an official road, but only when he saw the note on the right side noting that regular marks were traffic lines while large ones were steam train railway lines.

The emergence of steam trains meant that Big 6’s civilization has reached the steam age? Or maybe the electrical age? Angel guessed.

Angel turned to the next page. From this page, it introduced the wizard groups in the Kingdom of Eternal Night.

There are only two larger kingdoms and a couple of wizard groups recorded nearby, namely, Sleepless City and Dark Night City in the front, in addition, there are 17 relatively ordinary wizard organizations.

In a country with more than ten million square kilometers, there are only this many wizard organizations? In retrospect, Angel assumed that there was at least one in ten thousand people, and that a few wizards were the norm.

As for the second half of the book, it begins with popular ideas regarding the wizard groups near the Kingdom of Eternal Night.

Angel, from Morrow, learned some things about the principles of meditation, but he did not receive a comprehensive and detailed introduction, and Angel felt that he was always separated by a layer of film. And Sanders collection provides the most basic introduction, which is very suitable for Angel, as he reads in order to help understand the world of wizards.

Angel’s mind sank and he began to read quietly.

Time passed slowly in such a quiet environment.

“Are you going to fall asleep here today?”

Flora’s spooky voice came into Angel’s ears. Even though he had been used to Flora’s voice during these past two days, Angel was still startled to hear such a childish, sharp, charismatic voice in this quiet evening as he was absorbed in his reading.

“Good evening, Miss Flora.” Angel put down his book and greeted respectfully.

“I didn’t expect that our mentor would open up his collection of books to you. It would seem that mentor really attaches great importance to you.” Flora floated down to the ground, stepping barefoot on the soft carpet, and walked slowly around Angel. “I suppose you don’t mind telling me your gift, do you?”

“My gift? I don’t know. Mentor didn’t tell me. ” Angel said gloomily.

“What, that’s not right. This isn’t his usual character? ” Flora murmured, “Tell me the whole story.”

Angel recalled the previous interaction and felt that there was nothing that could not be said. Coupled with the fact that he did not want to offend Flora, he recounted what happened before.

“A true wizard? Heeh. ” Flora smiled mysteriously at the corners of her mouth, looking into Angel’s eyes, with a hint of curiosity. “I see,” she said. “He didn’t even teach you a special guiding method. And just told you to come here to read.”

“The mentor must really value you.” Flora said for the second time, but this time it sounded a little more serious than the previous teasing.

“Miss Flora, do you know anything? Can you tell me? ” Angel asked hurriedly, seeing Flora with a clear face.

“Know what? Your gift? Hee, I don’t know. ” Looking at Angel’s anxious expression, Flora’s eyes rolled around. “But I can give you some details that you haven’t noticed .”

“Details that I haven’t noticed?”

“That’s right. I don’t know. Did you ever learn about the ideology of wizards? In the world of wizards, in addition to extremely close family relationships, there is a default trading principle, that is, equivalent exchange. ” Flora changed the subject.

Equivalent exchange, Angel naturally knows of it, when he was on the Bohemia, Morrow did not teach the triangle guidance method because of this principle. Huh?! Angel suddenly seemed to understand something.

“Do you think you have a familial relationship with mentor? No, today is just your second meeting. ” Flora looked at the full bookshelf. “Isn’t it scary for him open so many precious books to you the next day, and ask for nothing in return?”

“You know, there are a lot of things in the world of wizards that have a clear price tag, but only knowledge is priceless.” Flora turned her back to Angel, and there was a snicker on her face where he could not see.

“In terms of the principle of equivalent exchange, mentor has given you such a valuable fortune right now. I just don’t know what you will have to give him in return to close the deal.” Flora waved to Angel and said goodbye: “Don’t worry too much. Maybe your talent is enough to let our mentor take the initiative to exchange this knowledge with you.”

Flora left with a “knock” after her words of caution, and quickly fled the scene. For if she did not leave, she would laugh at Angel’s pathetic and fearful expression!

Angel did not know that he had just been teased by Sanders in the front and by Flora in from the back.

He was still pondering Flora’s words and felt that what she said was so reasonable! When he had met his cheap mentor that day, he came up with the idea that he had a big gift, but now it must have been something that his mentor definitely wants to use. In an expression from earth, there is nothing to be courteous about, take a beating or steal. And what can Angel’s mentor “picture” it to be? It is estimated that this gift is still uncertain.

So, the problem is back to square one. What exactly is his gift? Why does Sanders make him wait? What does his talent bring to Sanders? How far or how much will he have to give? Will he die?

The more Angel thought about it, the worst his outcome was.

In the end, Angel’s pupils were the size of mosquitoes and he collapsed to the ground.

When Flora peeped secretly, and saw Angel’s situation, she could not help but raise the corner of her mouth. Perhaps because Sanders valued him, or perhaps because of some hidden jealousy, she could not help but want to bully her young apprentice brother.

What she had just said seemed reasonable, but in fact it was nothing more than bullying Angel in the wizards world.

It is true that knowledge is priceless, but it also depends on what kind of knowledge. Several books for wizard apprentices are no different from toilet paper for official wizards.

She had just kept raising its value in his eyes, since she was dissatisfied and wanted to play a trick on Angel.

Before he became an apprentice to a wizard, Sanders began to arrange a “true path” for him. She’s already a wizard and she hasn’t found her own path yet! Although it is said that a true wizard’s path should not be arranged by others, but smoothly setting foot on it depends on personal understanding and opportunity. And she was just upset that Angel was still an ordinary person and had such a high starting point.

Looking at Angel’s current predicament, Flora that felt more than half of her grievances dissipated, as she hummed a joyful tune and turned away.

Not long after she left, Sanders suddenly appeared in her previous position, sighed slightly, and shook his head at a loss as to what to do in his mind.
