[Rudolf Helstea's Pov]
During these two months, I had successfully broken through the barrier of 1st rank mage and formed a core just like everyone in this continent. But my core was different than others mine was of translucent color.
The biggest benefit I discovered was that after the breakthrough I was able to control all four basic elements. I was still unable to control advanced elements like Arthur.
I also discovered my sister Lily is also about to form her core. I tried to impart the method the system gave me when I first became an apprentice mage. But the system immediately beeped a warning sign. It said I would be unable to teach the techniques of the system to anyone until I became an Archmage. Which is also called the 7th-rank mage. After I reached the 1st rank mage I understood how wide the gap between each realm is and without the system with my talent alone, I did not have any hope of achieving even sixth rank within 1000 years.
And my system clearly stated that I would be unable to live any longer than twenty years.
When I came out of the room the whole mansion was empty. The servants and the butler were still there.
"Where did everyone go?" Asked Rudolf to the butler.
"Young Master, Everyone has gone to the Helstea Auction House for the Tenth Anniversary event." Said the butler.
'They did not even inform me. And Lily has also become busy as she is regularly training to awaken to become a mage.'
I just walked away from the butler and went to the kitchen to find something to eat. He was starving.
He just put some butter on the bread. As he continued eating. He heard a similar sound he had heard more than two months ago.
"Ding~"
[1. Show everyone that you have awakened by blowing up the roof of your mansion.]
[Reward: charm +5]
[2. Continue to remain low-key.]
[Reward: Magic Spells "fireball", "wind sword", "earth fortress", "water jet"]
He directly ignored the first option, the second option was a little unexpected. Why was the system suddenly rewarding him with all four basic spells? It seemed a little suspicious. All the options I have received until now have secured my survival.
'Why, why. could it be because of...Helstea Auction House!!'
Wait if everyone is there does that not mean Arthur, the supposed protagonist of this world is also there and where there is a protagonist there is trouble. These protagonists are trouble magnets. Everyone gives away their lives just for the survival of the protagonist.
Tap.
I chose the second option and chose to wait for now I could do nothing with my little strength. After pressing the second option, I saw some visions of blurry figures who looked the same.
"Watch carefully I will not show it again."
I was surprised when the man suddenly spoke. I was levitating in the air but something was obstructing me from seeing the appearance of the person in front of me.
All the figures lifted their fingers in a straight direction simultaneously.
There were exactly four figures that symbolized the four basic elements. Suddenly mana started gathering on one figure's fingertip. The mana that had accumulated shorted out and suddenly a majestic mountain materialized in front of my eyes.
Boom.
The half of the mountain had vanished from its place. And it was the same for all elements like water that was known for being gentle suddenly devoured half of the mountain. The other figure also did the same but this time half of the mountain was burned to ashes. Then the third figure covered his whole fist with rocks and punched and again the result was the same. Now the last figure started gathering wind in his hand but it was not visible what it was until enough wind had gathered in his hand.
It was a sword. A sword made completely out of wind. He swung the sword and the mountain was cut in half.
"Even the most basic spell can become the deadliest weapon in the hands of the true genius."
Said the last figure before everything vanished and I was back in my mansion. And was still eating chewing bread. It felt like the time had stopped for like 10 minutes.
