YM778.TV Chapter 8 - Training
"Well this is unexpected. You really are a genius, to think that you finished all the way to intermediate Khair. But according to these books, I think that this era\'s magic has deteriorated. To think that just making eight magic circles would be considered an 8th Circle Wizard. During my time, I had 16 magic circles, and only then I was the assistant mage tower master."
"I really want to talk to you more but I need to rest, Lucas. I have a class tomorrow, and that demon won\'t forgive me if I\'m late. You can come with me if you want. I will bring the book with me.", Liu Feng told Lucas and went to sleep.
The next morning,
Liu Feng stretched out his hands and got off the bed. Everything was just normal. He started brushing his teeth, and went to take a bath. When he returned he saw Lucas.
"Ohhh, I was hoping it was all a dream. Seems like I am not in luck."
"That is a very hurtful thing to say, you know? Don\'t forget to take the book with you. I can\'t get far from it."
"I have to ask you, why can only I see you?"
"Ohh that, it\'s because I am much more powerful than anyone else in the castle. Even your joke of a tutor. A court mage only in the 3rd Class?"
"You are wrong, he is in the 6th Circle. People like that are rare, and it took a lot to convince him to stay with the kingdom."
"Whatever you say, I think it\'s time to go. I can\'t wait to see the sun again. I want to feel the breeze- hey wait for me, stop dragging me, ohh that damned book.", Lucas cried out, after Liu Feng took the book and left without telling Lucas.
Liu Feng arrived at the training grounds. There stood Davis, Liu Feng\'s swordsman teacher.
"There you are. You are three minutes late. You can go ahead and run three laps around the grounds."
"Yes sir!"Liu Feng obeyed.
Liu Feng ran like a dog for fifteen minutes. Liu Feng collapsed immediately after running his laps, but Davis came to Liu Feng and splashed a bucket of cold water on him.
"Still a lot of things to Your Highness", Davis smiled, and the way he smiled gave Liu Feng chills back his spine.
The next few hours, Liu Feng spent training his stance and sword strikes, while Lucas was strolling the gardens. He looked at every plant and animal, exclaiming whenever he saw things that he did not recognize. After Liu Feng finished his class, he went back to his room to rest until his next class.
"Why did you finish so early? You can\'t wait for me can you?"
"I do not have the energy to fight with you. By the way, weren\'t you a little too excited to see plants and animals?"
"Ohhh, that? I just couldn\'t recognize many plants. How did your kingdom find these new species?"
"It\'s not that these are very rare species. Maybe because you are from an era far before us you can\'t recognize this. With evolution, all plants and animals change a little over time. Sometimes, the change is so much that it becomes a new species. How could you not know this?"
Lucas looked at Liu Feng like a ghost. "Are you the devil?"
