SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar
Chapter 836 Conditional Agreement
Deafening silence echoed in the lounge as Neron stretched out his hand to make his offer.
ραпdαn૦νel I stayed silent, almost as though in silent contemplation. However, even before he said anything, my mind had already been made up. Surely, he must have noticed it as well…
"Watching all of you right now… being unable to even scratch the surface of your full potential… It's honestly hard to watch. How can the Martial Blade God be this weak? How basic are his Martial Arts? And the rest of you; how come you haven't developed more techniques or grown any further than this?"
I wasn't particularly talking to anyone, but I could sense some uncomfortable fidgeting among my audience.
'Honestly, it's insulting, almost like a bad joke, seeing them like this. We risked everything to stop the Nether Cult, yet this group poses very little threat here. And the worst part is that they're the good guys.'
Perhaps if they were stronger, I would have simply focused on using them to achieve my goals. Unfortunately, it seemed they needed my help even more than I needed theirs.
'Other than Ciel and Neron, I don't think I can benefit much from the rest. Then again…' A smile formed on my face.
'I think I just want to help them out.'
"I'll join your group on one condition," I said, my eyes brimming with enough confidence to cause even more fidgeting in the seats by everyone present.
'I'll need to observe how Magic Technology and other things have developed in this world. I'll also need to learn Spell Formulas from Scratch. Ciel will have to guide me on that. I need to learn how to acclimate the Arcana Spells that are in my Original Magic to this place.'
Learning things from scratch, how fun…
"What is your condition?" Neron finally asked me.
"It's simple. I want to be placed in charge of training."
Currently, the Outers were too weak. But, that could be fixed. As long as I taught them what I knew and shared some of my techniques with them, they were going to be fine.
"It's for your own good." I smiled at everyone around me.
"I see. So we're that weak, huh?" Sadness crept up on Neron's face for a short while, but it quickly vanished.
"I'll need to discuss this with Ciel, but I personally agree with your condition. If it will make us stronger, then I am more than willing."
I reached out my hand to his outstretched one, finally shaking him. "Glad to hear it. Let's do our best together."
'I'll need to spend more time with Ciel, trying to figure out how to sync my Arcanas with this world's system. I'll also need to train everyone here. Finally, I'll need to work on my Aether Cores.'
I was finally about to fully form my second one. Just a tad bit more concentration and I would achieve it.
"There's a lot of work to be done, and very limited time." I said. "My presence here must have alerted this world's Jared, so they'll probably be on high alert. As a result, it's possible that they'll be very cautious at first. We'll use that to our advantage and train as hard as possible during that period."
Going out on missions now was risky. As much as I wanted to test the waters, I had to be careful. If the Jared of this world was working together with Merlin in order to tap into Nether, my extremely frugal Aether wouldn't stand a chance.
"I say we do some intensive training here for three months. That's the barest minimum. Thanks to the Time Ratio that's going on here, only one month would have elapsed in the real world, am I right?"
"You know about the Time Ratio too? Amazing…" Neron appeared genuinely surprised, but that only served to raise his opinion of me.
"Ciel helped set it up, right?"
"Yes. She has access to Ancient Magic and her connection to this world—while extremely limited now—allows us to achieve certain law-bending effects."
'That must be this world's definition of Arcanas.' I smiled to myself. As expected, Ciel was the key I needed.
"It's going to be a hectic couple of months. I hope you're all prepared." A wide, intimidating smile spread on my face.
Many shivered at the sight of it. After all, they had seen the kind of power I wielded. However, I could also notice the level of excitement written on their faces. They wanted to grow.
"W-will we be able to use powerful spells like you after the three months? Is it really possible to grow that fast?" Stefan asked with a puzzled, yet eager expression.
Even as a genius in this world, he must have realized the limits of growth that every person had. How could he advance so quickly?
'I'm sure everyone is curious about it too… how they can develop very fast.'
Without speeding things up any further with my [Hermit] Arcana, this was as far as we could go. Even in my own world, reaching the level I desired for them within a mere span of three months was asking for too much.
But, it wasn't impossible.
"I'm going to teach you all a special technique. It will serve as your ultimate weapon—your trump card!"
The time had finally come to pass on my most guarded secret. I would have preferred another method, but for their quick growth and this world's survival, I was going to do it.
"You all will be the first to learn it, so be grateful. I haven't even taught this to those in my original world yet."
I couldn't use it yet since I hadn't synced with the signature of this world's energy, but it would be easier for them to get the hang of it. Perhaps watching how they did it would help me out in harnessing the power as well.
"I'm going to teach you Spellcraft. With it, you'll be invincible."
