Chapter 4: Basic Meditation and Chained Light Arrows
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“I suggest you go to Lach Academy.
“Of the four magical academies, only the Lach Academy has an Archmage who specializes in light magic.
“It’s not that the other academies aren’t good, but the other magical academies are unable to help you with anything other than ordinary knowledge for mages.
“Lach Academy is different. They have an archmage who specializes in light magic. It will be helpful for your future magic lessons.”
Listening to Nicholas’ analysis, Hughes nodded thoughtfully.
From this point of view, the Lach Academy of Magic was indeed suitable for him.
“This is only one of the reasons. Other than that, their Dean has a lot of forbidden light magic spells. You should know what a forbidden spell is!”
“As long as it has been released nothing can stop it.”
“Also, it is said that his granddaughter will also be there this time.
“So, you know!”
Originally, Nicholas was still seriously explaining to Hughes, but when he said the last two sentences, Nicholas showed an expression that all men understood. Then, he even raised his eyebrows at Hughes.
“Of course, these are only suggestions.
“The choice is ultimately up to you.”
“These suggestions are very important to me,” Hughes said.
Nicholas took out a box from the drawer in the table that he had prepared long ago and handed it to Hughes. “These things are not valuable. Take it. Consider it a personal gift from me to you.”
Hughes took a deep look at Nicholas and did not refuse.
Nicholas was trying to be nice to him.
And it was not a bad thing for him to have more connections.
When Nicholas saw that Hughes had accepted it, he could not help but secretly let out a sigh of relief.
SS-grade light magic talent was very rare.
As long as Hughes could successfully graduate from the four great academies, he would at least be at the level of an archmage when he came out.
In the future, as long as he did not seek death himself, he was very likely to become an archmage or even a sage.
Such a terrifying existence, what was the price he had to pay?
If he did not network now, it would be useless if he waited until he became a sage.
Before leaving, Nicholas left his contact information to Hughes.
He also told Hughes that as long as he was in Kyrenia, he could look for him if he needed anything.
This made Hughes sigh. Sure enough, his magic talent had greatly increased his status.
However, no one knew that Hughes had another SS-grade dark magic talent.
The high school’s classes ended at three in the afternoon. When he had left the principal’s office, it was already three-thirty in the afternoon.
Other than the classes that had yet to awaken, the rest of the classes had already ended.
Therefore, Hughes did not stay any longer. He returned to the classroom, put on his backpack, and went home.

Hughes inserted the key into the keyhole, turned it gently, and opened the door.
Looking at the empty two-room house, Hughes shook his head and could not help but let out a sigh.
His parents had died three years ago in the aftermath of a magical beast invasion of the city.
Although he was already somewhat used to being alone, every time he looked at this empty house, there would always be a touch of sadness.
“Phew-”
Hughes let out a long breath, then sat on the sofa and opened the box that Nicholas had given him.
Inside the box were two books. The books were titled:
‘Beginner-Level Mage Meditation Technique’ and ‘Chained Light Arrows’.
“It’s a meditation technique and chained light arrows?”
Looking at these two books, Hughes was amused.
The basic meditation technique was still alright, the value was not very high. After obtaining the mage certification, it could be obtained very easily.
But the value of the chained light arrows was much higher!
As light element magic was very rare, correspondingly, spells were also very rare. Spells of the same level were much more expensive than ordinary spells!
This book, chained light arrows costs at least 400,000 dollars!
“Looks like the principal put in a lot of effort into this gift.”
Hughes smiled slightly and opened the book of ‘Beginner-Level Mage Meditation Technique’.
‘Mana is the energy that appears after a mana burst. Its composition is extremely complicated.
Magical beasts can directly absorb and utilize this energy, while humans can only absorb mana after awakening elemental magic.
The more magical energy one could control in one’s body, the more powerful the spell they used would be!
This book is meant to teach you how to absorb and strengthen magical energy…’
The beginning of the book explained the effects of the meditation technique. Hughes’ eyes lit up as he continued flipping through the book.
There was not much content in the book. He spent half an hour to finish flipping through the entire book.
“Phew-”
Hughes exhaled and closed the book. “I’ve finished learning the theoretical knowledge. Now, it’s time to put it into practice!”
Meditation was the foundation of a mage’s advancement. There was no room for carelessness.
Therefore, Hughes spent three minutes organizing the meditation knowledge in his mind before he began to practice it.
He slowly closed his eyes and immersed his consciousness into his spiritual sea.
Then, he saw specks of mana in his sea of consciousness that was emitting green fluorescent light.
The mana in his sea of consciousness was absorbed into his body when he awakened the light elements today.
It was also the basis for him to become a mage!
Taking a look at the mana particles in his sea of consciousness, Hughes did not hesitate too much. He directly began to absorb the surrounding mana according to the meditation method he learned from the book.

Hughes only felt a soft sound as the energy flowed around him.
Then, the mana light spots in his mind rapidly increased.
“Very good, that’s it!”
Feeling the abundant energy fill his body, Hughes was delighted in his heart and focused on meditation.
In the outside world, six golden wings grew out of his back as he sat on the sofa. Then, green light surrounded his body.
Together with his handsome face, he looked like a fairy.
Time passed slowly, when Hughes felt that his spiritual side could no longer absorb the magic energy, he stopped meditating.
“It took an hour?”
Glancing at the clock on the wall, Hughes muttered in a low voice.
The absorption of magic energy was not unlimited.
It had to do with the user’s meditation technique and his magical talent.
Using the basic meditation technique, he could continuously absorb mana for an hour. For most ordinary people, that might as well be asking them to ascend to heaven.
