I Can Bind the Legendary Archmage to Train for Me! - Chapter 23

“This!”

Gargado was shocked when she saw Karl compress the magic ball into a speck!

What situation was this?

Just earlier, he could not compress it any smaller. After hearing what she said, he was immediately able to compress it into a speck?

This can’t be true!

Gargado suspected that Karl had already achieved this earlier on, just that he did not show it.

Karl shook his hand and the speck of magic ball disappeared from his palm.

He looked excited. After all, he finally succeeded after being troubled by it for so many days.

Now, he has successfully achieved the Novice stage of magic control!

Karl looked at Gargado, who was slightly shocked, and said, “Teacher, thank you for your guidance. I realized where I went wrong.”

Magic should not be thought of as a foreign object.

It had to be treated as part of his body. That was how it could be used naturally.

“…”

Gargado looked at Karl’s expression and did not know what to say.

She could sense that Karl wasn’t lying.

Before this, he could not do it.

He was able to compress the magic ball to the limit because of her guidance.

It was also because of this that she was so shocked.

What a genius!

Of all the people she had met, she had never met anyone who could achieve the Novice stage of magic control so quickly.

Genius, a true genius!

“It’s good that you understood. My guidance won’t be in vain.”

Gargado said earnestly.

No matter how shocked she was, she did not show it.

After all, she was a teacher of the Magic Academy. She should not get excited over a little thing.

Then, Gargado remembered something and said, “Cultivate. Don’t just cultivate your magic control. You can’t fall behind in your ranking.”

“Although all of you participated in the assessment ceremony on the same day. Some of the nobles’ children had been nurtured with various spirit elixirs since they were young. It might not have been useful before they became mages,”

“However, the effects of these elixirs will allow them to advance by leaps and bounds once they become mages.”

“Of course, to reach this step, one needs both hard work and a tremendous amount of resources.

“Can it be done this way?”

Karl appeared stunned.

He thought that the assessment ceremony was the starting point for all mages.

However, people with strong backgrounds had already been nurtured by their own family members.

This was something he had not expected.

However, since he had the system, it was convenient for him to increase his rank. He would not be weaker than anyone else.

Seeing Karl in a daze, a subtle smile flashed across Gargado’s eyes.

She felt that she had gotten her revenge.

After all, Karl had shocked her previously. Now, it was her turn.

Gargado said slowly, “So, everyone’s starting points are different. You can’t be negligent when it comes to increasing your rank. That way, you won’t fall behind.”

With that, Gargado paused, looked at Karl and asked casually,

“By the way, what is your current rank?”

“Two-star mage, beginner stage.”

Karl said slowly.

“Oh, it’s okay. It is already impressive that you were able to compress your magic to this level in the past few days. It’s normal that your rank didn’t improve.”

Gargado smiled and said, “But…”

Suddenly, she felt that something was amiss. She thought about it carefully.

It seemed Karl did not say that he was a beginner one-star mage.

But…

Two-star mage beginner stage???

“Two… Two-star mage?”

Gargado’s eyes widened. She thought she’d misheard.

Karl released his aura and Gargado sensed it.

Indeed, a two-star mage!

Gargado could no longer maintain her calm demeanor.

She could not be even more shocked.

She stared at Karl and opened her mouth, unable to speak for a long time.

Because what happened to Karl had completely overturned her perception.

If a person used more than ten days to compress their magic to the limit, although it was shocking, it was not too ridiculous.

There were some brilliant geniuses on the Magic Continent who could do it.

If he advanced to a two-star mage in more than ten days, although it was rare, it was still possible.

But!

If a person uses more than ten days to compress their magic to the limit, and increases their rank to a two-star mage…

According to the records, not a single person on the Magic Continent had ever accomplished this.

If someone told Gargado that something like this happened, she would not have believed it.

But now, this person was right in front of her.

It was simply outrageous!

For a moment, Gargado had mixed feelings.

Shocking, alarming, unbelievable, disbelief…

And excitement, relief.

After all, she was the one who recruited this person for the Magic Academy.

“Not bad, not bad, very good.”

Gargado said solemnly, “But you can’t be impatient or negligent just because you are talented, understand?”

Karl nodded.

“Alright, I’m only here to check on your cultivation status. If there’s nothing else, I should leave.”

Gargado got ready to leave.

“Teacher Gargado, I want to enter the Devil’s Den to take a look.”

Karl said from behind.

The Devil’s Den was for the new students. However, if they wanted to enter, they needed a pass. And this pass had to be processed by their teachers.

However, Karl did not officially enroll and did not have his own teacher.

“Okay. I’ll get you a pass later.”

Gargado nodded and left.

As Karl watched Gargado leave, his eyes seemed deep and intense.

He did not conceal his talent.

He bared his progress over the past few days.

His goal was to create an extremely talented persona for himself.

That was because only those with great talent could attract the attention of powerful mages in the academy.

After all, even in the Magic Academy, it was not easy to meet high ranking mages such as advanced stage Great Mages and Archmagi.

They did not show their faces easily.

Some people had been in the academy for many years and have yet to see a single Magi.

Karl did not want to see that happen.

He desperately wanted to see a Magi so that he could bind the system to him and share his cultivation experience.

And the best way to see a high ranking mage was to show off his talent.

There was no other way.

He knew that Gargado would definitely report his situation to the higher-ups of the academy.

At that time, even if he still couldn’t meet one, he would have caught the eyes of the higher-ups at the very least.at the very lease, he at least couldn’t see her

It was not a waste of effort.
