【Krisha treasures the wand you gifted her and finds it very useful】
【She has become more dependent on you】
【With the enhancement of the wand, Krisha’s strength has significantly improved, and her control over magic has also grown remarkably. You are pleased with this and begin teaching her more advanced spells】
【In the past, as a mere magic apprentice, Krisha could only learn the most basic level 0 spells】
【But now, you can teach her level 1, 2, and 3 spells】
【After two months of teaching, Krisha has learned many new spells from you and mastered the combined use of fire and wind magic】
【The witch has grasped your ingenious idea—the Hair Dryer Spell】
【From now on, Krisha can use fire magic in her left hand and wind magic in her right hand, combining them to release a warm breeze】
【Previously, you used this technique to help the girl dry her hair after bathing, but now, she can do it on her own】
【You are pleased, but for some reason, the girl seems a little down】
【You don’t understand why】
……
【Simulation Year 8, Spring】
【You are 22 years old, Krisha is 14, and the witch has grown another year older】
【It has been a long time since you first met Krisha, and while you feel nostalgic, you are genuinely happy for her growth】
【Aside from her progress in magic, the most important development is the growth of Krisha’s spirit】
【Thanks to your help, the girl has successfully removed all her demonic traits and can now walk and act in a human form】
【With your encouragement, Krisha finally musters the courage to step out of the courtyard. From then on, she no longer fears the presence of others, but she still prefers to stay only with you】
【Only when it’s necessary to purchase supplies does Krisha rarely venture out】
【As the girl puts it, such trivial matters shouldn’t be your responsibility, so she has taken full charge of replenishing the daily necessities, food, and clothing for the courtyard】
【She is like your personal maid】
Under the sunlight, at the entrance of the white-brown courtyard.
The witch seems hesitant, reluctant to step outside.
But just as Xu Xi once led her into the courtyard, this time, Xu Xi again takes her hand, encouraging her to step beyond the courtyard.
“Krisha, look, there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
After stepping out.
Xu Xi comforts her with a gentle voice.
The witch seems dazed, looking down at her legs that have already left the courtyard, then turning back to glance at the courtyard gate. Suddenly, she realizes something.
As long as Xu Xi is by her side, no matter where she is, she won’t be afraid.
The fear in her heart has already dissipated.
In its place is the “sun” that forever resides in her heart, bringing her courage.
“I’m no longer… afraid of anything. Thank you.”
……
【Through your careful guidance and her own innate talent, Krisha’s strength has become astonishing】
【In all of Allenson City, there are only a handful of mages at her level who can match her. It’s not that their talent surpasses hers, but rather that their years of cultivation far exceed her year and a half of training】
【To be safe, and to avoid her true identity being discovered, you haven’t allowed Krisha to join the Mage Association of Allenson City】
【Krisha has no objections to this; she only wants to stay with you and has no interest in anything else】
【Your life together is incredibly peaceful】
【There are no thrilling adventures or legendary tales, but you feel that this calm and serene life is the most precious】
【Your only goal is to cultivate as much as possible, to break through to higher realms sooner, and to watch the girl grow up safely】
【Beyond that, you have no other desires】
……
【Time flows once more, Simulation Year 9】
【You are 23 years old, Krisha is 15, and you have gained your own unique insights into the path of magic. The Wisdom of Mortals activates… The Observer activates…】
【You gradually begin to understand the truths of how the world operates】
【Your spiritual power begins to grow rapidly, and your mastery of magic advances further】
【You sense that you are on the verge of a breakthrough】
【Simulation Year 10, Spring, you are 24 years old, Krisha is 16】
【It has been three and a half years since you adopted the witch, and life during this time has been peaceful and beautiful. Though it feels like a long journey, it also seems to have passed in the blink of an eye】
【You have grown accustomed to life with Krisha】
【She has never disappointed you or made you angry. The only regret you have is that, even after all this time, Krisha’s emotional deficiencies have not improved】
【You have yet to see her express joy, nor have you ever seen her shed tears】
【Through your diligent cultivation, your spiritual power has finally reached its limit, and you are ready to begin your breakthrough】
Allenson City.
In the courtyard near the city center.
In the deepest, most secluded meditation room.
The light is dim, and the lamps flicker.
Xu Xi sits cross-legged, looking down at his left palm, where faint light floats, sometimes transforming into raging flames, sometimes into surging waves, and sometimes into howling winds.
“This is the limit.”
Xu Xi murmurs: “Through the Wisdom of Mortals and Elemental Perception, I have mastered all the magic that an Elite Mage can control. It’s time to advance to Grand Mage.”
The cultivation system and the magic system are different.
Even though he has experience breaking through to the Golden Core stage.
Xu Xi still approaches this realm advancement with 200% caution and care.
With utmost seriousness, he follows the experience notes he found in the Mage Association, gathering all his spiritual power to communicate with and comprehend the elements of the world.
Comprehend, connect, establish a bond.
Unlike before, when he simply controlled elemental power.
This time, Xu Xi must merge his spiritual power with the elements, becoming one with them.
“According to the records in the association, this step has stumped many magical geniuses, causing them to remain stuck at the Elite Mage level.”
“This is also why the number of Elemental Mages is dwindling.”
“Compared to the Divine Church, where one only needs devout faith to make breakthroughs, the path of an Elemental Mage is far too torturous.”
“However, I have the Elemental Perception trait, so this isn’t difficult for me.”
Xu Xi ponders.
He channels his spiritual power, merging it with the surrounding earth, water, wind, and fire.
Everything goes as expected.
No, it’s even easier than expected.
Xu Xi feels no resistance at all; it’s as smooth as drinking water or eating a meal. His spiritual power perfectly integrates with the elements, forming a harmonious relationship.
Grand Mage, breakthrough achieved in an instant!
“Whoosh!!”
A surge of spiritual power, like a tidal wave, carries vast amounts of world elements, rushing back into Xu Xi’s body.
At this moment, Xu Xi’s body becomes a bridge.
Establishing a connection with the elements of all things.
It’s an indescribable, exhilarating feeling that makes one’s eyes shine with excitement.
“In the past, using magic required using spiritual power to painstakingly manipulate the elements, then arranging them into the desired form. But now… it seems that with just a thought, the elements can align themselves, making the process much more efficient and convenient.”
In the meditation room, after his breakthrough, Xu Xi is surrounded by various elements.
He suddenly understands.
No wonder the names of the magic system’s realms are so straightforward.
Grand Mage.
An upgraded, enhanced version of a mage.
It makes perfect sense.
“The advancement to Grand Mage has made it easier for me to control elements. If this trend continues, higher-level mages will undoubtedly become even more adept, perhaps even… gaining control over all the elements in the world?”
Xu Xi pauses for a moment, thinking of the gods who stand above the world.
Perhaps those deities are not as mysterious and grand as they seem.
They are also mages.
Just the strongest mages standing at the pinnacle of the magical world.
“This world is indeed full of secrets.”
“I hope to have the chance to explore them deeply in the future. For now, it’s time to take Krisha and leave Allenson.”
