Sorcerer: I want to be an Academic Prodigy Chapter 439

Chapter 439: Chapter 438: The Hedonistic Faction

Seeing the atmosphere becoming somewhat stiff, Gloria gently tugged on Morris as a reminder.

The Enchanters Guild had no rule forcing anyone to hand over new creations; as a member, the School of Space had always maintained consistency.

“You see, you misunderstood my intentions again.”

“Ivan, you might not know this, but your Black Magic Wind Fire Array and Black Demon Fire Silk Array are both formations of energy shaping. No one doubts your proficiency in spatial magic, but as a member of the School of Space, don't you feel such behavior is somewhat improper?” Morris hurried to defend himself and started explaining.

“Are you saying that some people in the School of Space think my approach is inappropriate?” Ivan understood.

“It's not exactly inappropriate, just that we hope you could contribute more to the School of Space, and also avoid others gossiping. Look, the timing of your Chaotic Space Pearl couldn't be better. I don't see why you need to hide it, especially since you were already prepared to give it to me, right?” Morris continued, his words logical and well-founded.

Ivan pondered for a few seconds and then agreed promptly.

“Alright, I'll do as you say.”

“Wouldn't you reconsider? Actually, you don't have to be influenced by what I say.”

Seeing him agree so quickly, Morris worried he might overthink it.

“I think you're right. As a member of the School of Space, I should indeed contribute to the school.” Ivan waved his hand, indicating his decision was made.

The method of creating Chaotic Space Pearls excelled in novelty and cleverness; it wasn't anything particularly extraordinary.

It was split from the Pure White Eyes, constituting one third of its content, and had even been simplified to some extent.

Considering its function, since the small chaotic space created by the Chaotic Space Pearls inherently possessed dangers, and a slight mishap could injure oneself, its use was greatly limited and its value wasn't that high.

“Hehe, glad you think so.” Seeing his casual demeanor, Morris didn't persuade further; he suddenly thought of something and began to laugh.

“Shall we go find the Doradoli Chairman in a bit?”

“Why not find Chairman Hardy?”

“No, it's not the same. Chairman Hardy isn't actually one of us from the School of Space. I heard he was originally from the School of Life, then left the guild, and later returned and even became the clan leader of the Chanay branch; he belongs to the intermediary scholars.”

“As you wish.”

Seeing his intent to possibly earn favor with the chairman, Ivan thought about it and agreed.

Subsequently, Morris delved into the knowledge concerning the Chaotic Space Pearl with Gloria staying close by his side the whole time, while Ivan explored around the Traction Lighthouse.

Even in its dormant state, the space presence of the tower was profoundly robust, much like a huge light bulb.

Ivan glanced inexplicably at the Great Space Energy Tower, the twin towers related to Space Shift, the steeple, and others; an uncontrollable thought crossed his mind.

He quickly shook his head; his prominence was already substantial, and other attention-seeking matters were not urgent, so he would avoid drawing more scrutiny.

“Ts, ts, your Chaotic Space Pearl, how do I say this–truly wild.”

As Morris learned more about the Chaotic Space Pearl, he commented exaggeratedly, “If properly deployed on a battlefield and in sufficient quantities, it could definitely be a massacre weapon, overpowering anything the Alien Race might deploy, forcing them into a complete rout.”

“I thought you had realized that already; your reading speed is really slow,” Ivan quipped.

“Well, I trust your strength. Besides, I'm quite lazy, can't compete with you guys,” Morris replied nonchalantly, never considering himself a conventional sorcerer.

Yet, as a scion of a prominent family, he often needed to present himself as a conventional sorcerer.

That was also why he cared so much about the Pure White Tower; it was his only tangible achievement, made through his own efforts, a genuine and significant creation.

For the time being, the trio did not rush to leave the Sky Flow Valley exploration area.

Morris was actually quite sociable and outspoken, and from his conversations, Ivan learned quite a lot about Chairman Hotis.

From an essential perspective, Hotter and Morris were of the same kind.

Born into nobility and wealth, they never lacked resources for cultivation, nor did they lack meditation methods, secret techniques, or spells. Naturally, they had no need to forge ahead valiantly like most apprentices.

Gradually, they developed a lazy character and could be considered part of the 'pleasure-seeking faction' among sorcerers.

However, sorcerers precisely belong to a category that requires relentless effort in pursuit of more knowledge and the strengthening of their wills. Many sorcerers even proclaimed that 'endless knowledge equals endless power.'

Therefore, they were actually quite a contradictory group.

In such a group, Hotter was definitely the most unconventional presence, following his own path, too lazy to even pretend in any situation. In the past, he often infuriated his family elders greatly.

He soon became a role model within the group, admired by countless young men and women. Sometimes, they even used him as a shield.

No one ever imagined that such an extremely lazy and pleasure-seeking individual would suddenly become a Level 4 Sorcerer one day. That truly shocked everyone far and wide.

In the eyes of people like Morris, it felt absolutely miraculous.

“Master Hotter is undoubtedly a role model for us to follow, a perfect example worth learning from,” Morris spoke with fervent admiration when speaking of Hotter.

“Hmph, I think you just want to lazily idle your days away while hoping to suddenly become an Arcane Wizard one day,” Ivan bluntly exposed.

“We are friends now, let's not reveal too much,” Morris glared at him.

“How do you know Master Hotter hasn't been secretly working hard behind the scenes? Maybe he only indulges superficially, but privately he might be more diligent than anyone.”

“That's impossible. Master Hotter is not that kind of person. Besides, compared to his original self, I'm quite diligent now; otherwise, how would the Pure White Steeple come to be?”

“You're practically hanging the Pure White Steeple on your lips.”

“I'm happy to.”

Ivan, by nature, wasn't a serious person. This related to his experiences in his previous life. However, arriving in the Danaila World, the surrounding environment forced him to remain cautious and industrious, which became a habit.

He naturally didn't oppose people like Morris who were part of the 'pleasure-seeking faction'. In some ways, this was the life he truly desired.

The two hadn't known each other for long, but surprisingly, their temperaments matched well, and they found themselves talking more and more until Doradoli Chairman suddenly appeared.

“Good health to you, Chairman Obama.”

“Chairman, please look, this is Ivan's latest creation, a wild battlefield weapon.” After greeting the chairman, Morris eagerly presented a series of items related to the Chaotic Space Pearl.

“Just a little trick.” Ivan modestly said.

“Related to the Pure White Eyes?” Doradoli Chairman's discerning vision spotted some clues instantly.

“Yes, a derivative work.” Ivan nodded.

“Unique perspective, it shows your strong control over the spatial fabric. There will be many knowledge symposiums in the coming days. Take them to discuss, especially focusing on your exploratory thought process, to help other sorcerers expand their thinking.”

Doradoli Chairman then bluntly instructed.

Hearing this, Ivan felt numb. With so many leading figures in the School of Space, how many could stand on stage and lecture? This was clearly drawing hostility.

“As a reward, apart from the Star Realm Gate, you can freely enter and study this exploration area, and pertinent knowledge is also at your disposal. How does that sound?”

“Chairman, your command, how could I possibly refuse?”

Whether sincerely or insincerely, Doradoli Chairman clearly only cared about his agreement.

Watching the chairman's departing figure, Morris couldn't stop winking and gesturing at Ivan, almost saying 'See, they just handed it all to you without even having to apply'.

“If you have any new ideas or research, let Morris cooperate with you, giving you a helping hand.”

“Morris, take a good lesson from Ivan, don't wander around aimlessly and idly. In a few days, I'll test and teach you to see if you've made any progress.”

At that moment, two sentences from Doradoli Chairman clearly reached the three's ears; after speaking, he disappeared from sight.

Morris's figure stiffened, and it took quite a while for him to squeeze out a forced smile on his face.
