Chapter 67: Olgars Guidance (1/2)

Lawrend opened the door and entered the room. He looked around, but he couldn't find Olgar anywhere. There was only a double bed there with a desk to the right.

”Mr. Olgar?”

Lawrend called his name in puzzlement.

”Lawrend, I'm here.”

Olgar walked out of the bathroom located to the left side half-naked. He was wearing a white towel to cover his lower half.

”Mr. Olgar, do you have time?”

Lawrend asked him.

”Do you want something from me?”

Olgar asked him curiously. He held another towel in his hand and wiped his black hair.

”Y-Yes. If you could teach me magic, please! I feel like reading books is not enough.”

Lawrend stuttered when he asked Olgar. It was because he didn't know how Olgar would react.

”What is your element?”

Olgar asked him.

”Huh? I think it's Lightning.”

Lawrend was confused why he was asking that. Nevertheless, he still answered.

”Then I can't help you.”

Olgar shook his head.

”Why?”

Lawrend looked at him shocked and confused.

”If you hadn't noticed, I am a Wind-element High Mage. I can only teach you basic stuff.”

Olgar explained to him. There was a fundamental difference between elements that makes it impossible for a mage to teach someone with a different element.

”The basic stuff is enough!”

Lawrend shouted in reply.

”Didn't your tutor teach you the basic stuff?”

Olgar asked Lawrend in bewilderment.

”I never had someone tutor me about magic.”

Lawrend shook his head as he replied.

”Then, you learned magic by yourself!?”

Olgar looked at Lawrend in shock.

”No. I actually got a Beginner Magic Spell. When I chanted it, I suddenly had magic inside me.”

Lawrend shook his head and explained to him.

”Ah. Then that's normal. I thought you created your own magic spell. I would have kidnapped you and dragged you to the headquarters of the Mage Guild if you were.”

Olgar said to him with a smile on his face.

”Haha… I don't know what to feel about that.”

Lawrend laughed awkwardly.

”Can you tell me how a magic spell works? And why does it give magic when cast for the first time?”

Lawrend asked Olgar with a face full of curiosity. This was something he had been wondering about before.

”I'm quite curious, why didn't your father hire a Mage to tutor you?”

Instead of answering his question, Olgar asked him one of his own.
