Chapter 15：Flame Mastery Scripture (1/2)

[Flame Mastery Scripture

Grade: Mortal (Growth)

Freely control flames to your wishes.]

Alex read the panel that had popped up in front of him. The physical book itself only mentioned the technique being in Mortal grade. However, when he viewed it through the system, it actually mentioned a growth element along with the grade as well.

His technique hadn't grown past level 1 so he still didn't know what growth exactly did to the techniques, but if he were to go by how good [Alchemy God's Knowledge] was, [Flame Mastery Scripture] would also be a great technique.

An hour had passed since he had entered here. So, he took the [Flame Mastery Scripture] and left the fourth floor. He soon reached the entrance to the library.

He went to the elder and said, ”Elder, I wish to take this with me.” He brought the scripture forward and handed it to the elder.

The elder took the book and looked at it for a few seconds. He was surprised. He turned to look at Alex and asked, ”Are you sure you want this? If you have run out of time, you can come back tomorrow to check for more.”

He didn't think Alex would actually bring out a Mortal grade technique when he was free to choose any earth grade technique.

”It's an okay elder. I didn't run out of time. I chose to take it.” Alex insisted on taking the book.

”Very well then. I guess this is not a bad book. It's at least one of the better ones in the Mortal grade. Especially since you can use it in both Alchemy and Battle.” The Elder said.

'I knew it. So I in fact can use it for both.' He thought.

”Alright, give me your token, and nameplate.” The elder said as he brought forth his hands.

Alex opened his inventory and took out both the token and nameplate. He then handed it to the elder.

The elder took the nameplate to his head and closed his eyes. Then he took out a talisman from somewhere and brought it to his forehead as well.

”Alright. You can go now. I have recorded your information for today. You can have the book for a week. A week from now you will have to return the book in perfect condition.”

”If you fail to return the book in time, you will have to pay 50 contribution points for each additional day you don't return it. And if you somehow end up destroying the book, you will have to pay the book's worth in contribution points.” The elder gave him a warning as he returned his nameplate.

”Thank you, Elder” Alex walked out of the library into the crowded streets of the sect valley.

”Hmm… Oh! It's nearly 7. Wow, have I already been in the game for 3 hours?” Alex didn't want to return to his cottage as it was quite far, and it was an uphill journey.

”What happens if I logout out of the streets?” he wanted to try it, but quickly dismissed the idea.
