I Only Know Forbidden Spells - Chapter 9

Under everyone’s respectful gazes, Lin An weakly returned to his seat.

“Lin An, you’re actually so powerful, possessing supreme-level elemental affinity.”

Beside Lin An, Susanna looked at Lin An with a face full of surprise.

Hearing Susanna’s words, Lin An humbly said, “So-so, so-so.”

Lin An knew very well that the supreme-level elemental affinity was clearly the reason for the SSS-level forbidden spell, Flame of the Godking.

If it wasn’t for the forbidden spell, there wouldn’t have been such a huge fluctuation.

As for his true elemental affinity, judging from his innate mana being only at level-3, it probably wasn’t much better.

Hearing Lin An’s words, Susanna felt that Lin An was becoming more and more mysterious.

His supreme-level elemental affinity was still average?

If that was really the case, then all the sorcerers in the Scott Kingdom would be trash.

After all, sorcerers with supreme-level elemental affinity were very rare existences in the entire continent.

At this moment, Lin An didn’t continue to talk to Susan. Instead, he closed his eyes and began to recover his own magic energy.

Overdrawing all of his magic energy made Lin An aware of the consequences of his low realm.

If he didn’t have enough magic energy, then no matter how many forbidden spells he knew, it would be difficult for him to release them.

With his realm as a sorcerer’s apprentice, he would probably be exhausted if he released a small portion of the forbidden spells.

In Lin An’s opinion, he had to at least cultivate to the realm of a real sorcerer. This kind of situation would be slightly better.

However, although Lin An was now a sorcerer’s apprentice, he still needed a long period of time to become a sorcerer.

One had to know that in the Scott Kingdom, there might be tens of millions of sorcerer’s apprentices, in the end, only a few hundred thousand people could truly become sorcerers.

Most people might not be able to persevere and know that their talent was insufficient, so they would switch to cultivating as swordsmen.

After all, people did not have so much time to waste on cultivation. They still had to survive and support their families. They would not be stuck on the path of being a sorcerer.

…

When Lin An recovered his magical energy, the assessment had completely ended.

Other than the unlucky guy from before, all the other students had passed the assessment.

At this time, the administrator announced that everyone had passed the assessment. They could go to the dormitories that the academy had long prepared and stay there. Then, they could prepare to start classes the next day.

Just as Lin An was about to leave, the three examiners asked Lin An to stay behind.

“Hello, student Lin An. I’m a teacher from the Hodtrotz Magic Academy. You can call me O’Connor,” one of the examiners said to Lin An enthusiastically.

“Hello, Teacher O’Connor.”

Lin An replied politely, but he was very nervous in his heart. He was afraid that O’Connor would notice that something was wrong.

But it was clear that Lin An was overthinking.

O’Connor said, “Student Lin An, your affinity with the elements is the most terrifying I have ever seen. Our academy is preparing to focus on your training. From today onwards, you can receive 500 gold coins a month from the academy’s Logistics Department for training. At the same time, if you have any needs, you can communicate with the academy at any time. We will do our best to meet them.”

Hearing O’Connor’s words, Lin An was stunned.

Lin An didn’t expect that the academy would give him such generous treatment.

500 gold coins per month was almost a sky-high price for a poor student like Lin An.

It must be known that ordinary commoners were frugal. One gold coin was equivalent to half a year’s expenses.

Five hundred gold coins was the standard for nobles.

“Teacher O’Connor, what do you want me to do?” Lin An asked.

Giving him such a huge benefit for no reason, Lin An always felt that there was a conspiracy behind it.

O’Connor shook his head and said, “There’s no need to do anything. As long as you can train well and fight for the honor of our school, it will be fine.”

O’Connor thought of the current predicament of the Hodtrotz Academy of Magic, and he was very anxious.

There was a tradition in the Scott Kingdom that every magic academy would have a competition between students every year.

If the students of this academy could defeat the students of other academies and obtain a certain ranking in the competition, the kingdom would give them a generous reward.

On the other hand, if they were at the bottom of the competition year after year, many resources would be exploited.

On the other hand, the Hodtrotz Magic Academy had been at the bottom for four consecutive years. If they were to be at the bottom of the competition this year, they would be banned from the school of magic and the entire school would be disbanded.

Originally, the Hodtrotz Magic Academy had planned to spend a large sum of money to bribe the second-to-last school of magic to protect the school’s reputation.

But in Lin An, O’Connor saw hope for victory.

A student with supreme-level elemental affinity was able to possess the destructive power of a magic sorcerer when he was a magic sorcerer apprentice. This was practically an invincible existence in the competition.

One had to know that in previous years’ competitions, the most talented student only had the strength of a magic sorcerer.

“This is what I should do,” Lin An said.

Training well, wasn’t this what a magic sorcerer apprentice should do?

Moreover, they could receive 500 gold coins a month.

Actually, what Lin An didn’t know what a magic sorcerer apprentice with supreme level elemental affinity represented.

If this was spread to the outside world, countless academies would probably want to recruit Lin An.

Under O’Connor’s concern, Lin An left the examination hall.

After asking a senior where the freshmen dormitory was, Lin An went to the freshmen dormitory.

The freshmen dormitory was decorated very luxuriously, much more luxuriously than Lin An’s previous home.

Upon entering the freshmen dormitory, Lin An received the respectful gazes of the other freshmen.

They had seen Lin An’s performance in the examination hall clearly, and they knew how terrifying Lin An’s strength was.

In this world, the strong were respected.

Lin An’s strength was strong, so he would naturally be respected by these new students.

Very quickly, Lin An found his own dormitory.

It had to be said that the treatment of Hodtrotz was very good. They were all single-person dormitories.

After tidying up, Lin An also laid on the bed and rested.
