Chapter 346: Chapter 346

"No!" Carl lifted his head, his tone serious. "I want to give it a try."

"Hmm?" Vulcan raised an eyebrow. A sense of futility washed over him, making him feel his previous words had been somewhat superfluous.

"Heh..." He chuckled softly and didn’t refuse. "Suit yourself. I also wanted to give it a try back then, but alas, I wasn’t successful. It’s not out of the question if you want to try, but this witchcraft comes without any guidance."

"No problem." Carl nodded. "Besides ’Thunder God’s Fury,’ I also want ’Thunder Wings,’ a lightning-attribute Flying Witchcraft."

Vulcan shook his head. "You certainly have quite the plan."

"’Thunder God’s Fury’ for eight hundred Magic Stones, ’Thunder Wings’ for five hundred Magic Stones. That’s a total of thirteen hundred Magic Stones."

Carl’s expression stiffened. I’ve been careless! Because of that incident with Grey Robed Wizard Adison, I don’t think I have that many Magic Stones left, do I?

"Is it possible to use other items to offset the cost?"

"No problem, but I’ll set the prices," Vulcan replied. He hadn’t expected Carl to produce so many Magic Stones in the first place.

Thirty bottles of different Potions, a pile of soul dust, a dozen or so Demonized Items, and all sorts of Demonized materials. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝕟𝕖𝕥

These items were taken one by one from the storage pendant.

As for the pendant... it came from Hodgson!

All of Marian’s belongings had already been removed from it, but as spoils of war, it belonged to Carl.

It had two cubic meters of space inside, capable of holding quite a few items.

"I heard you snagged quite a few benefits on the day of the market chaos," Vulcan mused. "Seems it’s true!"

"But you’re still about a hundred or so Magic Stones short."

"Senior." Carl thought for a moment. Looking at his empty storage space, he took out a crystal inscribed with a witchcraft. "I have a rather special witchcraft here. How many Magic Stones do you think it can offset?"

"The Tower doesn’t lack witchcraft," Vulcan said, casually taking it. "If it’s a witchcraft the Tower already possesses, I won’t accept it here. Otherwise, you could leave that pendant you have; it might be worth..."

"Hmm?" Mid-sentence, Vulcan’s expression froze. His face turned solemn as he fell into deep thought. "Earth Shattering!"

"Through resonance, immense power, assimilation... to trigger the vibrations of the earth’s leylines... Interesting. Quite an intriguing witchcraft."

He specialized in Earth Element Witchcraft, so seeing a somewhat different Earth Element witchcraft naturally piqued his interest.

"This witchcraft doesn’t have high requirements for spiritual power; instead, it demands that the cultivator’s Constitution meets the standard."

"Most Wizards would be unsuitable."

"Yes," Carl nodded. "But it’s suitable for you, Senior."

Vulcan possessed a Hill Giant Bloodline. His physical strength far exceeded that of a Legendary Knight, and he also had the spiritual power of a Second Circle Wizard. He was perfectly suited for ’Earth Shattering.’

"Alright then!" Vulcan shrugged and pocketed the crystal. "I’ll take this witchcraft. It will cover the remaining Magic Stones."

"Furthermore, by rights, a newly promoted Wizard should have a few years of rest. However, you know the current situation at the market. It would be too wasteful for an Official Wizard to rest for long. You still need to keep an eye on the shop."

"Rest up for three months, and then come out and get to work!"

"...Yes." Carl sighed helplessly. He had anticipated this; Wizard Bella had mentioned it too. As he turned to leave, he casually asked, "How will the Tower handle Nancy?"

"That ignorant girl from downstairs?" Vulcan shook his head. "Given the mistakes she’s made, she can no longer inherit Marian’s legacy. As for anything else... let’s put that aside for now!"

A Wizard Apprentice who had undergone ’Soul Search’ and was now unable to inherit her tutor’s legacy. This meant Nancy had completely lost any hope of being promoted to Wizard.
