Lawrence reached the Library of Hellsword clan by following the guards.
Guards did not even realize that they were being used by Lawrence. He used them to know the in and out of Hellsword clan.
Library building was a three storied middle sized building. Building was designed beautifully and it had a silent and peaceful environment.
Without special permission no one of Hellsword clan could get inside. Of course, Lawrence was a exception.
He saw some powerful looking burly warriors guarding the entrance of Library. But he proceeded forward.
Everyone knew young prince Lawrence,who could not start cultivation even in the age of 13. The warriors outside quickly kneeled and Lawrence nodded at them.
He passed them and entered the door. When he entered inside the library,he saw racks full of scrolls.
He was just going to pick a scroll to inspect,he heard a sneer coming from behind.
"Brat,why you have come here today. Do you think this place has some young girls or what?
Lawrence frowned and looked back only to discover a old man with dishevelled hair with a mocking look in his face.
Face of Lawrence darkened and he angrily shouted inside his own mind,
"Fuck,when did I offend this old bastard.
He is cursing at me from the get-go."
But he didn't show any of his thoughts on his face.
"I am going to read few books about magic and special plants.",he calmly stated.
But much to his irritation and anger,that old man started laughing loudly.
He said,"What a joke,you can even read a book!How unexpected."
Lawrence got annoyed but he kept his cool.
He calmly asked,"What if I can read a book and memorize it."
"Reading is one thing but you are claiming that you can even memorize it,that is a boasting,enough to scare the donkeys away",Old man with dishevelled hair said mockingly.
Lawrence was feeling enraged but he knew he was powerless now. He calmed down and said, "What if I can do this?"
The old man sneered and said, "If you can memorize a book,I will crawl on the ground and do anything you want me to do."
Eyes of Lawrence lit up but he quickly hid his emotion. He nodded and said, "I am going up."
This time old man didn't say anything but he sneered.
Actually,this was not the fault of the old man. The previous Lawrence had a allergy for the study. He couldn't even focus for two minutes in study.
He had a strong bloodline of Hellsword clan but it was a waste on him as he was unsuccessful in beginning the cultivation.
Evan went up the stairs and he found racks full of scrolls again. He observed there were books in the middle section.
Initially Lawrence wanted to check up books in every building before going to 3rd floor.
But now he was irritated and wanted badly to shut the mouth of that smug looking old man.
He sneered inside his mind,"Old man,ready to crawl like a pig and work like a ass for me."
He quickly went upstair again and reached the third floor.
Compared to other floors,he didn't find much books here. But,he found some scrolls which were looking ancient and more books kept in racks than 2nd floor. He observed the surrounding and found some heavy tomes in the middle section.
He found a old man who was sitting on a chair,in the middle of the hall. He seemed to be asleep but when Lawrence looked at him,
he slightly opened his eyes.
When he looked at Lawrence,his dim eyes grew brighter and he said,
"Brat, I never expected to see you here. For what reason you have come to this place?"
Lawrence looked at the old man who seemed ordinary but he already knew that he was a strong fighter of Hellsword clan. He was one of experts who always remained in clan to protect it from any eventuality.
Lawrence bowed at him slightly as he knew he was one of the trusted aides of his grandfather. The old man looked slightly pleased by the gesture of Lawrence.
He said , "Brat,I can help you with anything inside clan but if it is outside, I can't go."
Lawrence didn't know whether to laugh or cry after listening to his words.
Lawrence sighed,he knew what the meaning of old man's words. He thought, " This old man is thinking,I must have made a mess inside or outside clan. After all,it is not easy to change my old reputation."
Lawrence looked at the old man and said,
"Uncle Mario,you have misunderstood me. I have come here to look for some books,which can assist me in starting my cultivation,and give me a basic idea about powerful magical techniques."
The old man,Mario felt astonishment after listening to Lawrence. In his disbelief,he again asked,
"Are you sure,you are here to start your magical cultivation."
Lawrence nodded in a serious face. Mario felt joy looking at his determined face.
He thought to himself,"Bigbrother,will be Happy,if he can look this brat's serious face."
Mario looked at Lawrence and said,
"Brat,listen carefully to me,if you want to start your magical cultivation."
Lawrence's nodded and listened seriously to the old man,Mario as he knew listening to a powerful and experienced fighter was benefitial to him.
The old man continued,
"You must focus your mind,if you want to start your cultivation. There are many type of elements in heaven and earth. Most common of them are groups of penta-element water,wind,earth,fire,thunder.
Among Penta elements water and Earth is good for defence while wind,fire,thunder is good for attack. There are other types of elements but we will discuss them later.
Actually getting started with cultivation is easy. As long as you can concentrate and feel a suitable element in environment,you can get started with magic cultivation.
But you have not even stayed in concentration for half an hour. This is a waste for your pure blood of Hellsword clan which has natural affinity for thunder."
Lawrence's jaw dropped after listening to the old man. He started cursing inside his mind,
"What the fuck!It is so easy, I only have to concentrate and I can use magic. I am worrying about I need to do some difficult stuff like memorizing a complex chanting or something!"
