Chapter 19 (1/2)
Chapter 19: The Black Knight Appears 2
Once Luke managed to get the attention of the people, he reached out to Victor, who was on the side, staring at the boy holding the magic stone.
“Would you please lend me a sword?”
“Sword? I don’t get it, where would you use it?”
Victor wondered while pulling out his sword.
Luke took the sword and grabbed the blade with his left hand and pulled it.
Swak-!
Blood flowed out from his hands, causing the sword to turn red.
“Young, young lord?”
“No, why would you do that?!”
As if that wasn’t surprising enough, Luke squeezed the blood out of his hand.
His blood began to drip onto the magic stone, which he placed on the floor.
‘The magic stone has to be this wet…’
After burying the magic stone with his blood, Luke began to draw a series of magic circles around the stone.
All the Iron Mages had their mouth’s opened as they saw him drawing magic figures and characters on the floor without a shred of uncertainty.
At first, they thought that he was just another noble kid.
However, the shapes and the formulas that filled the circle were exactly the same as the mana wave numbers on the core magic stone.
‘No, this can’t be!’
‘He’s not even a wizard. How is he doing this?’
Luke continued to work while they were all in astonishment.
After a while, a magic circle with a 3-meter diameter was completed.
After returning the sword to Victor, Luke took a breath and began to cast a spell in a loud voice.
“Lha Kantar Eli Re Perato…”
‘Don’t, no way! That is a magic spell!’
The Iron Mages opened their mouths at the same time remembering their promises.
Magic spells were like a secondary magic, memorizing specific spells would help stimulate the flow of mana and help build the magic.
It had the advantage of not needing a magic circle, but on the other hand, the spells were extremely long, and the pitch with the rhythm of the spell must be exactly the same.
If it didn’t work well, its effects wouldn’t be that big.
A magic spell could only do one or two basic circles.
And to go for 3 circles, there was a need to place magic circles.
This was why the wizards never laid eyes on the spells, and the non-wizards, scholars, and nobles were interested in magic and would sometimes try to learn it.
This boy definitely knew how to do magic already!
‘Just to imitate the spells…’
As the spell of Luke progressed, the magic circle drawn with blood began to shine.
Along with him and the mana gathered by the magic circle, it penetrated into the center of the magic stone.
Woong! Wooong! Woong!
The magic circle shined with huge resonating sounds coming from the magic stone.
“What? What the hell are you doing?”
“What is it with the mana?”
Iron Mages of the other clans were now starting to be curious at the peculiar phenomenon that was happening.
They also wanted to see what was happening
The core magic stone, which was at the end of its life, began to glow and its color began to change.
The eyes of the people around Luke widened.
“That… that!”
“The deposited mana is disappearing!”
In the midst of the confusion, Luke was completely dedicated to memorizing the spells.
After about 30 minutes of magic rituals, the blood circle around it began to evaporate.
Finally, the central magic stone retained its transparent color, the initial stage.
“It’s over now. Go on, check it.”
Luke placed the revitalized stone back into the core engine.
As a result, the output of the Mir increased exponentially. It looked like it was a new Gigant that was just taken down from the workshop.
Iron Mages, especially the one who challenged Luke to a bet, were completely frozen.
“Nonsense!”
“How did this happen…”
Luke rarely learned any magic spells.
But with the magic circle, and the mana deposition of the magic stone, it just couldn’t be understood.
‘Huh, nonsense? You guys, who haven’t studied properly, would probably not understand this.’
When Luke was still the warlock Saymon, there were no artificial magic stones, and it was very hard to even find the ore of the magic stones.
Luke also took a lead in creating the Golem corps. He couldn’t stand the fact that the golems that he made couldn’t bring out their best because of the lack of magic stones.
