The Supreme Magic Throne

Chapter 20 Trying to Read

There were no surprises as Lucian expected. Within four hours of eating dinner until he fell asleep unknowingly, he managed to decipher the contents of the first ten pages of the magic book, but the result was only disjointed words, the sentence was incomplete, and the result was not, because many words involving magic are very rarely encountered.

Of course, with Lucian's ability to learn all along, these words can indeed recover and form meaning, but they are definitely inaccurate. Only by this understanding, Lucian did not dare to start learning magic rashly, because maybe he himself did not know what he would die like later.

Fortunately, in this magic book, the witch who is the author will occasionally write the contents of her mind and some of the things faced while studying magic. This magic book is like a diary, and the words in this section are not ordinary, but the grammatical structure is similar to the language Lucian uses, thus allowing Lucian to successfully decipher similar sentences contained within the first ten pages, and roughly know the origin of the other two magic books, or what should be called the two magic notebooks.

This witch was born in a family of magicians who survived the fall of the ancient Sylvanas magic kingdom, although this family has lived in a remote place in the mountains since the time of the occupation of Alto City, and her existence is also hidden, and her, but under the raids, the population of their nation is steadily dwindling, if not for the fact that the raids and attacks from the church have been less intense in the last 100 years, it seems like this witch family has perished, but even so, in the generation of magicians the author of this book, the witch family consisting of the witch herself and her two parents are the only ones left.

After an accident in summoning a creature that Lucian does not know how to read the creature's name, this witch becomes an orphan, and at the same time officially inherits two magic books, astrology and the Elements, which are generally associated with magic.

There was only a description so far in the magic book like a diary about witches in the first ten or so pages, so when Lucian woke up the next morning, the first thought that came to his mind was: "It would be best for this witch's notebook to be complete, without any explanation pieces. Otherwise, where can I learn the ancient scriptures of Sylvanas."

Because most of the work Lucian found in the Bronze Crown Tavern was related to Aaron's gang, so Lucian was forced to be unemployed and could only rely on savings for the time being.

However, this is exactly in line with Lucian, John, and Joel's plan, which is to let Lucian concentrate on learning the language in the meantime to avoid the possibility of revenge from Aaron's gang. After all, Joel was a street busker in the administrative district and Elisha worked washing clothes in the powerful guild, Ivan could also follow Elisha to the textile guild to help small things that did not require capital, he said, and the job wasn't related to Aaron's gang either. As for Lucian, if he wanted to start doing something, it would be very difficult not to get involved with the market that Aaron's gang controlled.

Even John and the others asked Lucian not to leave the city just yet, or go to remote places, he said, and also be careful that the house itself is not burned secretly at night by people who are not afraid to die.

Therefore, after Lucian woke up, washed his face, and ate the soft brown bread boiled in boiling water, he felt relaxed and relaxed.

Of course, this was just an illusion, Lucian quickly restrained his laziness and went looking for open space in the Aderan area. Then, according to John's teachings, he began to practice and practice the basics of swordsmanship with a wooden stick.

For Lucian, before learning magic, the best way to deal with possible danger is to strive to increase strength. Although John had said that if he had not practiced since childhood, and only started when he was sixteen, he would have no hope of bringing out the power of the bloodline and obtaining divine grace, except to obtain 'Holy Light Water' given by the church.

But Lucian also has Jackson's dagger, so he can still fight to the end in critical moments.

It was nine o'clock after the rehearsal was over, Lucian returned home, took a break, took a break, and began to revisit what he learned yesterday and what he gained while trying to decipher the magic notebook last night. Resilience, perseverance, and independence that had never been as high as before, were now much more overflowing.

Inside the lobby of the house No. 12 Sneva Street, Jisu District.

Victor looked at Lucian in disbelief: "You really haven't learned? Would that be pronunciation, spelling rules, or grammar?"

From the thirty-two letter reading he asked, to the question, Lucian's answer was perfect, and Lucian also asked some questions about the rules of spelling, which is a question that often arises after mastering letters and grammar. Lucian's progress has been truly remarkable. Just learning one day was already equivalent to the results of studying three months, and it was already close to catching up to ordinary disciples like Colin and Rene who were at a certain level.

This was the second time Victor had been startled by Lucian, which made the other students also subconsciously glance at Lucian again. Whether this ordinary brat was a genius of language and writing, or was deliberately lying, these two possibilities both meant that this brat was already at a certain level.

“Mr Victor, I haven't actually studied letters. But as soon as I started studying, I accidentally thought about relating pronunciation and other daily speaking habits. So after comparisons and references, I can learn more effectively." In this Alto City, Lucian would rather people consider him a genius, than an incomprehensible monster, since it would attract the attention of the church, and cause a lot of trouble. That was why he calmly explained his method of learning.

This was indeed the method used by Lucian, but without the help of libraries and textbooks to try to decipher, it was also unable to reach Lucian's learning speed.

Although Victor came from the common people, his father was already a reliable violinist and admired by many nobles, so Victor began to learn the common language from childhood, so I have no experience in this field. As soon as he finished hearing Lucian's method, he nodded repeatedly and praised, "Good, very good, you can make use of common language speaking skills to make a method, that proves you're smart and talented in this field."

His satisfaction with Lucian was obvious.

Herodotus, Colin, and Renee looked at Lucian with envious gazes.

After studying with Victor for five years, Lott and Phyllis who had no problems with language use, and even had good musical achievements, rarely saw Victor praising a disciple that often, as much as he did, so they subconsciously glanced at Lucian.

Lott originally wanted to shrug both shoulders, but not so because thinking about it was an act that did not suit the nobility, he said, it would be fine to do it in front of other close friends or the usual girls around, but the one sitting opposite him was the stingy Phyllis, clever insinuating and vaguely wanting to compete with him, so in the end he just smiled and whispered, "Because it speaks a common language all along, so it should be natural to have such an idea, anyway, but that method doesn't seem to be useful when it comes to learning music, does Phyllis?"

“You think I'm that naive? Besides, I have my own way of learning music, unlike someone who always relies on that little bit of talent, does not want to try and continues to revolve among women. Lott, you should understand, that talent doesn't last long." Phyllis showed a neat and beautiful white tooth with a flat smile, "If this guy, hmm, this ordinary guy named Lucian starts learning music, maybe he'll surpass you."

She insinuates Lott with Lucian.

In fact, other than Lucian who was a young man who did not have much general knowledge. Joel, John, and others who knew that Lucian wanted to learn letters to change poor living conditions, and others included Cohen, Victor, Lott, Phyllis, Rene, and others, they all thought Lucian definitely wanted to take on and develop a career towards music. Because once a scholar chooses to start learning letters, it means already choosing the direction of the future path.

For example, if one wanted to be a clerk of the village court or administrative officer of the town hall, when learning languages and letters, that person would definitely choose a law scholar, history, etc., etc, than a musician like Victor.

While wanting to be a pure scholar but not from a background or having connections with nobility, then it would not be recognized, as well as if wanting to become a musician, he said, it must also be recognized or admired by nobles.

Lott smiled coldly, "If he surpasses me, that means he surpasses you too, Phyllis."

Phyllis was about to fight back, but Victor's gaze suddenly looked over here, so Phyllis just slightly tidied up her long red hair, and lowered her head to continue studying.

After Victor had ascertained Lucian's talent, he accelerated his material teaching towards Lucian. Lucian quickly mastered the rules of spelling and now goes on to material on grammatical knowledge, which suits Lucian's wishes.

Friday, Lucian's last day of study this week.

After a few days of study, Lucian has mastered most of the grammar. If not for his lack of vocabulary mastery, he would have already been able to start learning magic. Even so, Lucian also continued to read magic records of witches, until finally understanding why this witch came to Alto.

"With the growth of spiritual power, the effects of meditation are also significantly reduced, is there room for this improvement?"

"Do I have to take the risk and try out a meditation method that only experienced official magicians can use?"

"Almost dying, it's too dangerous, maybe I should consider improving the magician disciple-level meditation method rather than fixating on this meditation method."

"I have no purpose and find no direction. No wonder after hundreds of years of inheritance, the family ancestor has not improved the magician disciple-level meditation method, it turns out that I am overconfident and narrow-minded."

"The first-rate magic structure is too complicated to make a spell model."

"I'm almost crazy. If I can't make a spell model, then I can't rely on existing magic herbs to advance to the official magician level."

"Perhaps, I should try to mix magic herbs, which potions themselves contain first-rate spell models. I hope this makes me reach the level of a full witch."

"I can't find the necessary English broom ice plant."

"Alto is the largest and most prosperous city in the western part of the continent, and also a city where many witches hide, maybe I should try my luck there."

This is the diary content that Lucian reads. He was very curious about the experience of this witch after arriving in Alto, so decided to continue reading the last few pages later tonight.

Today, Lucian comes to Victor's place to learn while hiding a thought, which is at the same time as mastering basic grammar, he will find an opportunity to borrow a common language dictionary and print its contents into the library. If it works, maybe two days on the weekend, Lucian can already start learning magic.

Lucian is hopeful.
