(From MC’s Perspective)
I left Claudia’s gym a few minutes later. Still, I couldn’t get the disappointment out of my head. I know very little about wizardry. In school, they only teach the fundamentals. Inquiring about mana core formation and the distinction between talents is difficult. For example, various technical matters weren’t taught in school.
It appears that some knowledge can only be obtained at the academy.
I noticed many air cars nearby shortly after exiting the building. They are currently awaiting customers to pick them up. When I noticed this, I walked over to one of the cars and jumped inside.
Time passed,
I boarded the return train successfully twenty minutes later. My mind is now preoccupied with a variety of thoughts. I’m particularly interested in the core progression of the top three wizards.
“System, does everyone have a similar core limit?” I asked about the system in question.
This is a thought that bothers me greatly. I’m hoping the system can respond. In this way, it prevents me from having the wrong idea in my head.
In the next split second, I heard a familiar sound in my head.
[Ding! The Host’s voice is recognized.]
[Ding! Host, wizards have different core limits.]
Hearing that, I inquired again, “Is it based on talent?”
[Ding! Host, Talent is one of the factors.]
[Ding! Other factors affect core limits.]
[Ding! Such as Mage power, mental method, and body constitution.]
[Ding! For further knowledge, the host has to wait for the next update.]
After hearing that, my eyes glowed with surprise. Again, I had a look of comprehension on my face. Take, for example, Easton Brown. Unlike me, he must rely on various potions to progress.
As a result, his core progression will differ from that of others.
Then my lips formed an arc; why hadn’t I noticed this before? 𝘦𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝑙．𝑜𝑟𝘨
As a Swordsman Wizard, Victoria has a different core limit. As stated by the system, the wizard’s magical power also plays a role in it.
“System, is it possible for everyone to have the same progress rate as me?” I asked about the system in mind.
[Ding! Host, the system can’t find the answer.]
[Ding! Wait for the next update.]
Hearing that I had dark lines on my brow.
But I quickly grasp the overall situation. When it comes to the wizardry path in this world, talent is the most important factor. Aside from that, other minor factors influence wizard advancement.
A quick glint flashes into my eyes after I gained some clarity in my thoughts. I’ve made it clear in my mind that I will not compare myself to others.
Some lucky wizards in this world may come across super relics like me. They will make tremendous progress if they obtain the relic.
So comparing myself to others is pointless. With that, I pushed these entire thoughts to the back of my mind. Because of it, the little unease that remained in my heart was also swept away.
Time passed,
After two hours, I arrived at my house. I’ve mentally prepared myself to face interrogation by my family.
The door “creaks” open.
My parents and older brother were sitting on the couch, as expected. Three of them appeared to be waiting for my arrival.
Everyone turned to face me when they heard the door open.
When I noticed this, I went up to the couch and sat beside my brother. I noticed that everyone has a worried expression on their face.
My father’s words came to me before I could say anything.
“Vincent, where have you been?” Brad Carey asked sternly.
Mother Lila Carey, who was sitting next to him, had a disappointed expression on her face.
Brian was the only one who seemed unconcerned. When he heard his father’s words, he looked at his younger brother with a puzzled expression.
SIGH
I let out a small sigh as I noticed the various expressions.
“I messaged you earlier, Dad,” I replied.
“We’ve seen it, but where did you get the money for the Claudia gym?” Mother Lila Carey quickly interjected.
Then I realized it wasn’t a good idea to continue the conversation. So I quickly pulled out my communication watch.
Three of them were taken aback by Vincent’s actions. “Vincent?” said Mother Lila, slightly irritated.
She noticed a novice hunter’s license hovering above her son’s watch the next second.
“This?” Brad Carey, on the other hand, figured it out quickly. Is he now aware of where Vincent gets his money?
Hunter is one of the most dangerous occupations on the planet. This profession is mostly used by loose wizards to make a living. Because high-ranking wizards despise this profession.
Because the hunter profession is vastly different from that of a prestigious profession such as runic wizards.
Brad expected his son to follow the runic wizard’s footsteps. But he hadn’t expected Vincent to become a hunter. Is it due to a lack of funds?
In his heart, he felt rage and disappointment.
Brian Carey, on the other hand, was completely taken aback when he saw the hunting license. He was completely taken aback.
“How is it possible?” he asked, surprised. Unlike his parents, he had a completely different reaction.
He was aware that his younger brother had recently awakened. But where does his ability to hunt monsters come from? Is gravity power as powerful as people claim?
Brian stared in disbelief at his younger brother Vincent.
I smiled inwardly as I watched everyone’s reactions.
“I just joined the adventurer union a few days ago,” I explained.
“Did you go to the wilderness?” Mother Lila inquired, her voice worried.
When I heard that, I began to explain my wilderness adventure. I decided to leave out the events in the inner area. I’m only going to describe my battle with half-order monsters.
After 5 minutes,
When I finished explaining, the atmosphere became solemn for a brief moment.
I turned to face my parents. But I couldn’t figure out what they were thinking. My father, in particular, is frowning after hearing my response.
Then I noticed my mother, who appears to be in calm. She is no longer tense. She was probably concerned that I was keeping secrets from my family.
My good brother, I realized, is another existence beside me. I approached him and observed his reaction.
Unlike mum & dad, he is looking at me with a wry smile on his face.
“What’s the matter?” I asked, my brow furrowed.
If my good brother is overjoyed about something, I may have done something wrong.
Brian, on the other hand, was astounded by his younger brother’s achievements. But he had a good understanding of his parents. Both have negative feelings about the hunter profession.
That’s why he wasn’t allowed to join the adventurer union in high school. But his poor brother did something without his parents’ permission.
He is aware that both must have been deeply disappointed.
This awkward situation bothered me at the same time. I resolved to get over this as soon as possible. Because I have a big day tomorrow. So I need to make travel arrangements.
“Cough”
“Can I leave now?” I asked.
Both nodded when they heard that. I exhaled a sigh of relief when I realized this. The next thing I knew, I was getting up from my seat and walking toward my room.
But first, I turned to look at my good brother before leaving. I can already tell how bad Brian is. He’s envious of me.
This is something I was aware of.
Especially after discovering my magical ability. Brian harbors ill will toward me. This is not something that can be found in sibling relationships.
I can’t imagine what his reactions would be. If he knows the real me, I’ll snort coldly inside.
I went straight to my room after catching a glimpse of him.
Brian Carey, on the other hand, remained silent until Vincent left the living room.
When Vincent vanished from his sight, Brian turned to face his parents and said, “Dad, Vincent is no good.”
“It’s not easy to hunt in the wilderness; he must have joined some adventurer team, and if it’s a bad team, I’m not sure how his future will be,” Brian expressed concern.
Brad Carey remained silent after hearing this. But he had already begun to think deeply about it.
Lila Carey, on the other hand, was upbeat about the situation. “Vincent will officially join his academy after two years,” she replied.
“The competition within the Academy is usually insane, so it’s also a good idea for him to join the adventurer union, where he might learn a thing or two about people’s hearts,” she added.
She then immediately remembered something. “Brad, I know you don’t like adventurer union, but our son is different from us; he has a bright future ahead of him,” she told her husband.
“He will quickly rise to high positions. So don’t prevent him from exploring the wilderness.”
Both had unpleasant memories of the adventurer union. Inside the wilderness, killing and looting were commonplace. However, wizards who have survived and experienced such situations usually have a different outlook on life.
She believes Vincent will require this experience in the future.
Brad Carey realized he was overthinking certain things. He sighed deeply, “SIGH,” before nodding at her.
