Chapter 412: I am now a beginner Mage! (1/2)

Proofreader: M_W Miss Fierce

Suddenly, Leo stopped his cultivation and opened his eyes. From his consciousness, he had felt the Chaos Orbs that he had given to Ethan had detonated, implying that they were now using it.

”They should be on their way now,” Leo confirmed to himself. In his mind, he could only think of only one reason why Ethan's group would use the Chaos Orbs, and that is they have met with a dangerous situation. Aside from the Magical Beast tribe of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm, he doesn't know anything else that could make Ethan's group use the Chaos Orbs.

Of course, it's also very possible for something else to cause Ethan's group to use the Chaos Orbs, but certainly, they will be careful enough not to attract unnecessary attention from other powerful Magical Beasts, right? After all, they were planning to lure a troublesome target already, so attracting another trouble would be very stupid of them, which he clearly knew that they were not. Unless, of course, if they were bored enough or something, so they thought of playing with the Chaos Orbs.

Anyways, he'd rather believe that Ethan's group is already on their way here so that they could finally continue with the journey to Horizon Empire.

”Time to rest,” Leo decided as he lay down on his bed. He was now sure that Ethan's group would be arriving tomorrow, so it's much better to rest in order to recuperate his energy and stamina. He wasn't really waiting for this information before going to sleep, it's just that he only has a few Magical resources left inside his Storage Ring right now because the majority of the Magical resources were left back at the Green Eagle Flyingboat, so he decided to take a rest.

.....

The desert was extremely hot during the day, to the point that just starting at something would make one see a hazy scene.

”Can we really not rest inside and just come out once one of your Wind Elementals detected Ethan's group presence?!” Cassandra expressed her annoyance at their current situation.

”Indeed, it's extremely hot right now. It feels like our body is going to be exhausted first before Ethan's group could even arrive.” Elizabeth also felt the same way as Cassandra.

”This heat is nothing,” Angel can't help rolling her eyes in displeasure at Cassandra and Elizabeth. Well, as an Elite member of the Sword and Magic, she had already experienced something, even more, worst compared to this mere heat. She added, ”The main problem here is we've been dealing with Magical Beasts that wanted to attack us this entire time. Shouldn't we need to try avoiding such a troublesome situation?”

Veronica created a wooden roof using a Nature Element spell above her head before saying, ”Just put roofs above your heads and the heat problem would be solved. As for the Magical Beast, just think of it as you are training yourselves.”

”I agree with Veronica. Both of you should definitely start adapting to this kind of lifestyle. The sooner you adapt, the less troublesome it would become for you.” Ash reprimanded Cassandra and Elizabeth.

While they were arguing, Charlotte can't help turning to look at Leo, who she right after noticed was just mischievously smiling at them right now. Her forehead began twitching at how he seems to be enjoying himself to the sight of them suffering. She exclaimed loudly, ”You're really enjoying this, aren't you?”

Hearing Charlotte's words, Cassandra, Elizabeth, Angel, Veronica, and Ash finally noticed Leo's look on his face, instantly making them even more annoyed.

”Oh, don't misunderstand me, I'm not enjoying your suffering. I'm actually enjoying myself from learning more knowledge about Magic and stuff from all of you. You can say that; the more you fight, the more I learn.” Leo quickly defended himself.

”As if we believe you!” Cassandra and the others coldly harrumphed after hearing Leo's reply. Who was this guy even fooling here? Base on their understanding of Leo, they are one hundred percent sure that he is most likely enjoying their suffering.

Unbeknownst to Cassandra and the others, what Leo had said is actually the truth right now, though he was indeed also enjoying watching them suffer.

However, the main thing is, he is indeed enjoying himself at watching Cassandra and the others fight the Magical Beast because he still lacked a lot of knowledge in terms of fighting using Magic. This problem has been troubling him ever since he became a Mage, specifically that time he picked up the small Mana stone, and he badly needed a way to fix this problem.
