Sorcerer: I want to be an Academic Prodigy Chapter 420

Chapter 420: Chapter 419: The Power of Favor

Could this series of formations have additional effects?

Ivan remembered clearly, long ago after he had helped another female apprentice complete her promotion, she too appeared to have fallen for him, but he had never noticed that the formations had this kind of side effect.

This is probably just the sentimentality of a young girl.

“Even if you say that, the compensation that your Qingqi clan is supposed to pay will not be omitted, as I am a sorcerer, adhering to the principle of 'equivalent exchange.'”

“No, I–I–we didn't mean to not pay–”

Hearing this, the girl's expression froze, and she became somewhat flustered.

During the conversation, her hands involuntarily released Ivan.

“Cough cough cough, alright Dan Lin, the scholar was just teasing you.”

As she spoke hurriedly in a flustered manner, Elder Bayer quickly stepped forward and intervened on her behalf, “You've expended a lot of energy just now; what you need to do is to go back and clean up thoroughly, then rest properly, look how dirty you are.”

“Ah!”

Dan Lin then noticed that her body was not only covered with sweat stains and bloodstains but also had many burnt marks on her clothes, making her appear as if she had just come off a battlefield, completely disheveled.

She exclaimed and quickly turned around, leaving hurriedly, her figure soon vanishing amid the water pavilion.

“The girls of our Qingqi clan are always passionate and easily attracted to talented individuals, especially someone as talented as the great scholar. Please don't blame Dan Lin for her forwardness just now,” Elder Bayer said apologetically with a wry smile.

“It's alright.” Ivan didn't mind.

He casually retrieved the sorcery array dais from beside him back into his Space Ring; although he wasn't worried about anyone deciphering it, he couldn't just carelessly leave it in someone else's territory.

Elder Bayer wanted to say something else, but a disturbance occurred at that moment, attracting the attention of everyone present.

Ivan secretly thought, as expected.

In mid-air, a multicolored force materialized out of nowhere, emanating an element of profound yellow as if divine light descended from heaven. The divine light precisely landed on him, entered his body, and disappeared without a trace.

“This is the Witch's Favor!” Dorothy exclaimed softly.

“What is the Witch's Favor?” Angus, upon seeing the divine light, felt an inexplicable longing arise within him and couldn't help but ask after hearing her.

Dorothy glanced around at those present.

“I'm actually not very clear myself, having only occasionally heard the City Lord mention it. The so-called 'Favor' is a power that includes 'fortune,' and those with enough fortune receive protection from the unseen, often turning peril into safety.

It's also a diverse energy, multi-purpose and with a strong positive influence, like healing soul injuries, soothing deep curses, and so on.

In short, the Witch's Favor is an extremely rare thing that would even make high-level sorcerers covetous, but its benefits can only belong to the individual and cannot be transferred.”

She hesitated a second or two before sharing the information she knew.

After hearing her words, Angus involuntarily looked towards Ivan, who had just received the power; he was very curious.

In fact, this was the third time Ivan had received this thing, and he tentatively regarded it as the “Witch's Favor.”

The first time was used to enhance his spiritual power and physical aspects, the second time was used to alleviate a period of spiritual exhaustion. However, he had always been passive, never quite understanding why.

“Sorceress Dorothy, how is it used?” he asked urgently.

“It's said to act where your heart desires; exactly how, I do not know, for I do not possess it,” Dorothy pondered before replying.

Ivan thought pensively and immediately began to experiment.

At the same time, within his mental ocean, floated three solidification crystals–two big and one small. The slightly smaller crystal began to vibrate.

As the strong thoughts in his heart emerged, one, two, three streams of multicolored power appeared.

It turned out that the Witch's Favor he had previously passively expended hadn't been used up completely; a portion lay hidden deep within his body, now being drawn out in its entirety and infused into the 'Wood Heart' solidification crystal.

Wood Heart, Second-level Limit.

Wood Heart, Level 3 Early Stage.

When he was promoted to a Level 3 Sorcerer, due to insufficient power at the time, the solidification magic crystal that was on the verge of breaking the Level 3 threshold reluctantly halted.

Now, under the miraculous effects of the Witch's Favor, the solidification crystal easily crossed this threshold.

Wood Heart, Level 3 Early Stage.

Heart of Fire, Level 3 Early Stage.

Heart of Earth, Level 3 Early Stage.

Thus, the three solidification crystals balanced each other more, and once he nurtures the Wood Heart for some time, the three solidification crystals will maintain complete balance, laying the sturdiest foundation for his promotion to the Fourth-level.

During this moment in Angus's and others' view, Ivan's aura suddenly rose slightly, becoming denser.

“How is it?” Seeing him come back to his senses, Angus couldn't help but ask.

“Sorceress Dorothy speaks true; the Witch's Favor indeed has boundless uses,” Ivan gratefully told Dorothy, he had only wanted to test it, never expecting it to go so smoothly.

So smoothly that it was somewhat surprising.

Once the Witch's Favor was used, the regrets he had harbored were directly compensated.

However, all of the previously acquired Witch's Favor had been completely used up, but it was more than worth it. Apart from the leap in the solidification crystals, his spiritual power itself had also increased considerably, from 237 graduated degrees to 242.

If one were to consider only the spiritual power, he had reached the third phase of cultivation–the third Elementalization stage, and the last stage before promotion, spanning a full 40 graduated degrees.

“It's a pity it's not abundant in quantity and exceptionally difficult to obtain,” he then lamented.

“You talk as if you have it easy, with the example of the Qingqi clan, it shouldn't be so hard for you to obtain the Witch's Favor. What's tough is for us, who are completely clueless,” hearing his words, Angus rarely rolled his eyes.

“Speaking of which, I have to ask–regarding the matter of teaching Alien Races the Meditation Method, do our superiors have any regulations on this?” Ivan glanced at Elder Bayer and inquired of the three.

“I haven't heard of any,” Angus shook his head.

“There aren't any for now,” Dorothy continued.

“We haven't asked anyone; planning to think of solutions if problems arise, actually, we are also quite worried,” Elder Bayer answered as such.

Ivan remained silent.

From Helen and Dan Lin's promotion situations, it was evident that previously there likely hadn't been successful cases among Alien Races, or if there were, they were few in number; indeed, the superiors really had no need to set a specific regulation for this.

After a moment of silence, the four of them walked out of the water pavilion, each lost in their own thoughts.

Unbeknownst to Ivan and others, after they had left, the water pavilion quietly raised a layer of energy membrane, which immediately isolated the inside of the pavilion from the outside, seemingly transforming into another space.

Inside the water pavilion, a light eerie shade welled up, within which shadows moved swiftly, revealing one or two figures and the vaguely discernible sorcery array dais, perfectly positioned at the center of the pavilion.

Upon close inspection, it was clear that these were the exact happenings from before.
