Chat Group For Magicians

The howl of the demon echoes throughout the place. Despite his echoes of help, all of them were left unanswered as he disappeared in nothingness. What was left on his wake are red marbles and a few diamond-shaped shards with a weird blue color that seems to look similar to the water of the Pacific Ocean's depths. I approached them and grabbed one of the red marbles and checked it under the sun. Instead of a see-through, I instead found out that the red marbles has a swirling mass of weird cloud while the diamond-shaped shards are nothing but shards.

"What are these drops? Are these something that can be used? Or these are just junks ready to be sold off to a millionaire?" I looked at Voltaire.

"Ah, those are all useful to magicians. They are used for creating mana crystals that are used as ammo for magic guns."

"Magic Guns?"

"You will know it once you get to visit a Magician Store that sells items for magic purposes. But it might not be too long and you might be able to visit it in a few months."

"I don't think I plan to visit one but does this thing useful to me?"

"For now, no. This thing needs a high concentration of mana to purify the evil energy it has accumulated. Using such raw items without purification leads to dangerous consequences if used. You don't need this for now. But in exchange for stalling it long enough, I will give you three mana shards that are purified versions of the demon shards."

Voltaire pulls out three blue crystals that have the same shape as the demon shards with only the color difference. Still, I looked at the demon shards with curiosity. Just how the demons disintegrate into nothingness and then appear as a shard of small pieces? Too many questions for me.

"Still, the demons have been too active at this time. I don't understand why they are now almost ready to show their existence to the public like this," Voltaire said as he rubbed his chin while looking at the wake of the demon.

"Do the demons remain secretive about their activities from public eyes?"

"Demons remain secretive about their existence but they often blend with the humans just to find the opportunity to kill and eat them. Sometimes, they are the servants of magicians who have sided to the darkness and are practicing forbidden arts."

Voltaire gathered the demon shards and pulls out a small pouch where he placed them carefully. The red marbles, however, were given to me.

"Take those. One of the rewards for this battle."

"What are these things?"

"Life Beads. Useful for recovering wounds. Demons use them since they are useful for healing themselves from injuries that battles have done to them. Don't worry, they don't get tainted by demonic presence since they don't drop from the demon's body so it is not a problem to consume them."

"But I have seen these things fell off from his body."

"Ha, they fell off from his pocket. If they really came from the demon's body, killing these demons would greatly enhance our supply for Life Beads due to their usefulness."

I still have so many questions to ask but because I lacked the way of understanding these things and their magical terms are just too profound for me to understand. I pocketed the beads and looked around the surroundings then I just remembered something.

"Um, how to cancel out the mirror world magic?"

"Oh, simple, do the same way you activated Mirror World but this time you need to shout Break instead. It would reverse the effect of the magic."

I nodded before I did what was told. It was easier this time since I don't really need to concentrate too much just to get the mana to gather in my palms. When I felt the mana gathering from my body towards my palm, I quickly shouted the word.

"BREAK!"

This time around, instead of cracking, the pieces of the broken mirror started to float again. It was like it is being repaired instead of cracking.

POP POP POP

The pieces put themselves together and connected the broken edges without fail, a small piece or big pieces. And before I knew it, the whole place returned to normal. The wolf-like creature disappeared from my sight as soon as the Mirror World is canceled out.

"There you go, the mirror world is now undone. You are a fast learner and you don't need twice the instruction needed. That is an impressive feat already for someone who is a beginner in terms of using magic. My guess is that you will be a very force to reckon with by other magicians in the future."

"Hmph, I don't mind becoming someone great as long as there is no more conflict like this one because it is too much for me to handle to live this kind of life. Anyways, do you know how to use the Mind Wipe magic that Moonlight mentioned?"

"Of course. It is a very necessary magic for all magicians if they actually get someone to witness their magical feats. If you want to learn it, just go to the app and look at the Spells lobby. Go to the pinned messages and you can claim one genome seed there for free. Do you want me to explain how a genome seed works?"

"No, I am fine. I already consumed one genome seed earlier for learning Mana Scan."

"I see. So you are compatible with the genome. That would be a helpful asset for you then."

"Yes. It will be helpful to avoid conflict with the monsters."

"I don't know about that Kazuma. If you have started to tread into the path of magicians, then it will be a very dangerous and chaotic path you are walking with."

I fell silent. Just like what Voltaire said. If I follow this path, then most likely, I will get to see more of this action in the very future. Voltaire stood up after that and looked at me.

"You can continue with the job Kazuma as a magician, but if you don't like to be one, we can retake back your equipment linked in magic and we will wipe off the memories correlating to the magicians that you have accumulated during the duration that you became a magician. But you can return to your normal life. What do you say?"

I frowned and looked at Voltaire. "I may hate the conflict, but I don't mind the usage of magic. And I am not a quitter. I will still keep my status as one of the magicians."

Voltaire grinned before he tapped my shoulder. "Then good luck kid, and hope you succeed as a strong magician. We will meet again in the future."

And after that, a violet magic circle appeared below his feet before he leaps off like he was launched in a cannon into the sky. But he disappeared on the horizon after that. I didn't bother to look where he disappeared into because I need to go back to the garden since I left out the victim back into the bench after I have thrown the stone out from my hiding spot. Before that, I take out the genome seed for the Mind Wipe and eat it. In case there are some things that happened while the girl is out, I will be able to wipe it off her mind.
