Chapter 16 - Thunder Bullet
'Sovereign shop.'
Lucas had already remembered the rewards from the mission and without wasting any time, he decided to choose the item from the shop.
'Ding,
Level 1 Sovereign shop,
1) Lesser knight pill - 100 sovereign points.
2) Lesser mage robe - 100 sovereign points.
3) Basic thunder spell - 10 sovereign points.
Note:- The items in the shop will be refreshed every week.
'I want to pick the 'Lesser mage robe' as my reward from the shop.'
Soon, he selected the item from the sovereign shop.
'Ding,
One 'Lesser mage robe' is sent to the host's inventory.
'Huh? That's fast. Let's see how it is.'
This was his first time receiving from the system and he wanted to check attributes of the 'Lesser mage robe' while feeling it with his hands.
'Ding,
Item name:- Lesser mage robe
Effect:- Reduces the damage from the physical attacks and energy attacks by 50 percent from a peak lesser knight and a peak lesser mage.
Note:- 1) It reduces the complete attacks from below lesser mage or lesser knight.
2) The effect decreases with the increase in the opponents' strength.
More information:- An artifact that was refined from the skin of a special spirit beast that has absorbing properties.
Soon, the information regarding the robe appeared in front of him.
'This is very convenient.'
Lucas liked the feeling of knowing everything with thought and hurriedly read the effect of the robe.
'50 percent damage reduction? It is good.'
Lucas felt the light blue-coloured mage robe in his hands was smooth and very light. So, when he saw the effect, he was surprised for a second that the robe in his hands was so magical.
'If I had enough gold coins, I would have just kept it for myself or given it to Evan when he goes out. But, now I have to auction it off.'
Lucas shook his head and kept the 'Lesser mage robe' in his inventory before looking at the remaining two items in the 'Sovereign shop'.
'Since I have a Baron level magic talent, I can check this 'Basic thunder spell'.'
With a thought, Lucas redeemed the 'Basic thunder spell' after spending 10 sovereign points.
'Ding,
A basic thunder spell scroll is stored in the host's inventory. Please check it.
'Ding,
The remaining sovereign points:- 90.
Soon, he got the system notifications informing him about the redeemed item and the remaining sovereign points.
'Let's see what kind of basic thunder spell I received.'
To Lucas, learning spells seemed fun and since it is said that thunder type spells or attacks had the most destructive power, he wanted to learn it.
So, without wasting any time, he took out a purple-coloured scroll from the inventory.
'Ding,
Item name:- Basic thunder spell scroll.
Spell stored:- Thunder bullet.
Usage:- Crushing the scroll will instantly send the knowledge related to the 'Thunder bullet' spell.
Note:- Even though the user gets all the knowledge regarding the 'Thunder bullet' spell, he still needs to understand it to be able to use the spell.
'Ding,
Do you want to crush the scroll to learn the 'Thunder bullet' spell?
Before he could ask the system to show the information on the scroll, it sent the complete information and at the same time, it asked him whether he wanted to learn it or not.
'Of course, I want to learn it.'
Since he didn't have much talent in the 'Ways of Knights' and has a baron level magic talent, he wanted to focus on it.
Generally, various ways of increasing strength had a way to measure the talent and it was classified into seven types.
It starts with the lowest level of talent which is 'Peasant level' that means basically no talent at all.
The remaining six levels of talent are Baron, Viscount, Earl, Marquis, Duke and finally it ends with the highest level talent, Sovereign level talent.
Even though his magic talent was just at Baron, Lucas had confidence that it would increase in the future. Moreover, even if didn't increase, he is not the type to stop his mage training just because of his low-level training.
So, he nodded his head and crushed the scroll in his hands to learn his first spell 'Thunder bullet'.
'Swoosh'
Soon, the crushed scroll disappeared and thousands of tiny purple-coloured light elements appeared in its place as they slowly flew into Lucas' head.
'Ding,
The infusion of knowledge relating to the 'Thunder bullet' might be a little painful. Please bear with it.
Just as the system sent the notification, Lucas felt a sharp pain rising in his head; however, he endured much greater pains than the current one in his past life. So, of course, it was nothing for him.
'Ding,
All the knowledge has been infused into the host's head. Please use it to completely learn the 'Thunder bullet' spell.
'Ding,
Congratulations to the host for successfully learning your first spell and your magic sea will be unlocked.
It didn't take much time for Lucas before he received the system notification.
He was not surprised by the second system notification because he already knows that when a mage has enough knowledge to create a spell, his magic sea will be open.
To create any spell, a mage needs magic power and it could only be gathered into the magic sea by the mage using some magic cultivation techniques.
He knew all these things from the memories of the previous body owner which was a piece of common knowledge for the descendants of the top families.
'Let's test this spell; however, I can't practice either in this room or outside.
Since he just started his own self-image practice, Lucas knew it might blast something in the room and on the outside, he knew people would be watching him.
Just imagine, a young man established a main family in the Silverstone town, what will the other families in the town do? They would try to gather as much information on his family which Lucas didn't want.
As long as he stays mysterious, no family would bother him.
'Wait a second, didn't Shawn say that there is a secret training room for all the manors of the main family? However, he didn't say exactly where the entrance was.'
Suddenly, Lucas thought of his conversation with the young guide and started searching for a secret entrance in the master room.
It was very common for the family heads to have a secret training room for themselves in order to avoid the issues of their families while training.
It was unique to every manor. So, of course, Shawn didn't have a clue about it either as only Manager Rean and other managers knew about it.
'Kacha'
Finally, after searching for 20 minutes, Lucas found the entrance to the secret training room which was perfectly hidden; however, to Lucas who was an expert in observing minor details of a room, it was not a big deal.
'Knock knock'
However, just as he was about to enter the room, Lucas heard someone knock on his door.
