Chapter 11 One More Worry

Angel looked at Morrow with confidence. He believed that as long as a wizard was here, his mentor would be saved!


Leon indulged in Angel’s gaze towards Morrow, although he had some complaints with his brother wasting a favor on Jon’s treatment, but after recalling Jon’s contribution to the Pat family over the years, the trace of regret lingering in Leon’s heart had scattered with the wind.


Even if the favor is wasted, as long as his little brother is happy, it is also worth it.


The two brothers had differing views, but both were convinced that Jon’s illness could be cured by Morrow.


However, facts always run counter to expectations.


When the green halo disappeared from Jon, Angel tried to ask Morrow what had happened, but was immediately stopped by Leon.


Once again, Morrow suspended the crystal ball above his head, his face changing from ease held in the beginning to severe doubt of this situation.


It can’t be true that even a wizard can’t cure his mentor illness?


Can it be true that his mentor’s illness comes from the plane’s consciousness repelling people originating from exotic worlds?


No, it can’t be.


Angel had high hopes, but at this moment, he became extremely perturbed.


After a while, Morrow stopped casting his spell.


There was a hint of bewilderment on his face, for he had not found any sort of reason to explain Jon’s symptoms.


The result of the magic feedback was that everything is normal.


How could it turn out normal?


This is the biggest anomaly.


As long as one has eyes, they can clearly see that the skin and bones Jon is definitely terminally ill.


Plus he’s under 50, such advanced levels of aging must appear unusual.

But he can’t find anything unusual about it!


Is he cursed by evil spirits?


With doubt, Morrow stretched out his spiritual senses and leaned over Jon.


As long as there is an abnormal condition, his mental force can easily capture the traces of it.


…….


Nothing.


Still nothing.


There’s really nothing that can be done about this. He is just a recently promoted senior apprentice that hasn’t even began learning level 3 spells.


All the spells he has mastered for Disease Detection were cast, but there was nothing that could explain what was happening to Jon.


There’s nothing he can do about this.


Morrow looked at Angel with a worried expression and slight embarrassment in his heart, since he had previously boasted so confidently, now however, he was immediately hit in the face by the reality.


Pretending to cough twice, Morrow gave a sorry look to Angel and said, “I have no cure for your Mentor for the time being.”


“My spell has just detected that there is nothing wrong with his health. Since there is no problem with the test, physical treatment cannot be carried out.”


Morrow turned: “However, he does look like he is seriously ill, perhaps this involves the soul, or is a mental problem.”


Angel remembered his mentor saying that there was nothing wrong with his body and that the cause of the organ failure was by the plane consciousness.


Listening to Morrow’s explanation, although he does not directly say it is because of the plane consciousness, Morrow also does not say that his mentor’s health is fine.


So there must be something wrong mentally or spiritually?


Is the world consciousness eroding his mentor’s soul?


Morrow did not know that his words had been so coined by Angel or that he had come up with the most plausible answer, whether he was correct or not, Angel himself believed his points.


“Yes… if there is something wrong with the soul, or some mental problem, is there any way to cure it?” Angel asked eagerly.


“There must be a way. However, at present, there is nothing I can do about it.”


Morrow sighed helplessly, “If I were promoted to an official wizard, there might be a way to treat it. But as a wizard apprentice, there’s nothing I can do about it.”


“Will an official wizard be able to treat my mentor?” asked Angel.


“I dare not speculate on the power of the wizard lords, but it should be no problem to save an ordinary man. Even if the man dies, the wizard can still save their soul from the land of eternity.”


Angel: “So… When will sir be promoted to an official wizard?”


Morrow froze, shook his head and smiled bitterly: “It took me nearly 60 years to be promoted to a third level wizard apprentice. As for the official wizard? In my lifetime it is basically hopeless, that realm cannot rely on piling up time to reach.”


Morrow told Angel to reach the level of a formal wizard: talent determines the speed at which one can be promoted to formal wizard, as long as there is enough of it, becoming a formal wizard is a high possibility.


Talent is very essential.


Before becoming an official wizard, talent can be said to be the most instrumental link.


Some people become formal wizards after a few years of study, while others practice all their lives and cannot even break through junior apprentice. This is the difference between talent and opportunity.


Morrow admitted that his talent had come to an end and that he had to rely on opportunity to be promoted to a formal wizard.


But opportunity is not a case of when one wants it, they can have it.


Moreover, in most cases, there are 99 points of danger, for one single chance.


Opportunities are built upon lives.


There are very few opportunities that can be easily obtained, unless they hit a chance encounter, which is Morrow’s case this time.


Morrow’s words plunged Angel into utter despair.


An official wizard.


Where was he going to find one when they are almost all gone in Old Land?


For a moment, everyone was silent.


Leon patted Angel on his shoulder, trying to console him, but he did not know what to say.


After an unknown amount of time, Morrow spoke again, “I remember you spoke earlier that you had two worries. Since I cannot help you resolve this worry. Why don’t you tell me about your other worry? ”


The other worry.


Angel’s thoughts seemed to have been struck by a flash of lightning. He remembered Morrow saying that as long as he became a wizard, he could cure his mentor.


As long as one has good talent, they can become a formal wizard in a short period of time.


Good talent?


If he can become a wizard, does that mean he can cure his mentor on his own?


Angel remembered the other little worry he had mentioned earlier regarding his curiosity about extraordinary people.


And his desire to pursue the path of the extraordinary.


He wants to be an extraordinary man too!


“Sir Morrow, can I be your apprentice and learn the knowledge of wizards?”


Angel said very seriously.


As soon as Morrow heard this, he was stupefied, it took him a long time to recover and he burst out laughing.


“Wizard are not as simple as you think. If you want to be a wizard, you must have talent. Talent, this is an unpredictable thing, I turned every stone around the entire empire, tested nearly 10,000 people, and only my two grandchildren had such talent. It can be seen how rare it is.”


Instead of being intimidated by Morrow’s words, Angel further insisted, “Well sir, may you see if I am talented?”


Morrow looked up and down at Angel, and after a while nodded, “It’s easy to test for a wizard’s talent. If you want, you can even gather the whole Pat Manor to test. Let’s just count this as me returning your favor.”


Morrow’s passage, which seems quite generous, also hints at helping the Pat family train wizards.


But in fact, with the scarcity of talent, it is extremely difficult to find even one, let alone train a family wizards!


Moreover in fact, the talent test does not consume anything at all, he only needs to have a medium.


And the medium can be reused with little loss.


This time, he took over the task of recruiting talented apprentices for the college.


The college will naturally supply him a medium, so his previous words are basically equivalent to an empty promise.


He had earned back the kindness of others without giving anything in return.
