Chapter 473: Chapter 219: Born Fierce Species (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_2
“Thank you, Miss Vinica, and please extend my thanks to Master Annius as well,” Rein said with a slight bow and a nod.
Indeed, entrusting a professional with such matters is the only way he could have received almost the perfect solution so quickly.
“By the way, Lord Rein, although you observed my bird transformation technique last time, you probably haven’t mastered it yet, have you? These next few days, I’ll try to demonstrate it for you every day,” Vinica said enthusiastically.
Gazing into Vinica’s sincere, beautiful eyes, Rein was at a loss for what to say for a moment.
Should he tell her that he had already mastered Aeneas’ bird transformation technique?
Such learning ability would be too frightening, after all, he had only observed it once!
After a moment of thought, Rein nodded and said with a smile, “Then I’ll have to trouble Miss Vinica, as I’m indeed not very adept at the bird transformation technique yet.”
“Giggle, Lord Rein, your talent in the knightly arts is already exceptional; it’s completely normal if the goddess hasn’t granted you the same proficiency in witchcraft,” Vinica said with a chuckle.
Vinica couldn’t help but smile.
Soon, the two arrived at the same simple alchemy chamber where Vinica had demonstrated before.
“Lord Rein, you can use ready-made fast growth potions, phantom spirits, and so on,” she said.
“But the moonlight ink used later for drawing the six-pointed witchcraft array must be made by the caster personally. When making it, you need to infuse a very fine amount of spiritual power for it to be properly concocted,” she added.
“Furthermore, moonlight ink is time-sensitive. Its effect is best within twelve hours, barely usable between twelve and twenty-four hours. But once it exceeds twenty-four hours, the special energy particles it contains will largely dissipate, and it will almost become impossible to use for drawing a witchcraft array.”
“So, the first little challenge is concocting the moonlight ink…”
“The second difficulty lies in drawing the witchcraft array by hand…”
As Vinica once again demonstrated Aeneas’ bird transformation technique while pointing out the difficult steps of the technique with great care, one by one,
Rein had already learned it, but seemed to be captivated by the girl’s sincerity and listened quite attentively.
With the completion of the twin-tailed girl’s demonstration, Rein, who was observing, received several system prompts:
[You focused on observing Aeneas’ bird transformation technique, comprehension enhanced!]
[Your skill in Aeneas’ bird transformation technique has improved, experience +54]
[You focused on Aeneas’ bird transformation technique, Wizard Apprentice (Transcendent) experience +132]
[Congratulations, your skill in Aeneas’ bird transformation technique has advanced to lv2]
After again gaining 54 experience points, Rein’s Aeneas’ bird transformation technique progressed from lv1 (69/100) to lv2 (23/300).
Fragments of memory related to Aeneas’ bird transformation technique began to pour into Rein’s mind, which he quickly absorbed and mastered.
“Lord Rein, it’s not enough to just observe; why don’t you give it a try?” The twin-tailed girl wiped the fine sweat from her forehead and suggested.
After a moment’s thought, Rein felt that with two observations and Vinica’s meticulous instruction, he should be able to perform some of the steps without it being too extravagant.
So, Rein nodded and said, “Of course, Miss Vinica, I’ll give it a try right now.”
“Certainly, Lord Rein, you can try first,” Vinica smiled, stepping aside, curious to see how much Rein had grasped.
Perhaps, after failing seven or eight times, he should at least be able to properly concoct the moonlight ink? Vinica thought to herself.
Looking at the moonlight ink in Rein’s hand, which he had successfully made at the first attempt and was emitting a faint glow, Vinica was taken aback and said, “Lord Rein, that’s wonderful; you’ve overcome the first difficulty.”
Vinica stared at the witchcraft array on the ground, nearly identical to her own, her beautiful eyes wide and her mouth slightly open in shock.
She thought that perhaps she should take back what she had said earlier…
It seems the goddess truly did endow Lord Rein with wizardly talents as outstanding as his knightly ones!
Having placed the Blood Feathered Horned Eagle chick on the soft padding at the center of the witchcraft array, Rein held the potion and began chanting…
As system prompts resounded, it marked the successful casting of the witchcraft.
[You cast Aeneas’ bird transformation technique, comprehension enhanced!]
[Your skill in Aeneas’ bird transformation technique has improved, experience +142]
[You focused on Aeneas’ bird transformation technique, Wizard Apprentice (Transcendent) experience +278]
And Rein distinctly felt a strange connection form between him and the Blood Feathered Horned Eagle chick.
This was not an effect of the bird transformation technique; it seemed that by casting the technique, the system acknowledged that he and the chick had formed a pet relationship.
Sure enough, the system prompts followed:
[Ding! The host has established a contract with a ferocious wild beast for the first time, current pet count (3/3)]
[Ding! A core event for the Legendary Beast Tamer profession conversion has been detected — contracting a ferocious wild beast!]
[Preconditions for advancing to Beast Tamer (Legendary): one, Beast Tamer (Transcendent) lv5 or above; two, spiritual power of 24 points or above; three, having at least three ferocious wild beasts as pets; four, successfully raising at least one ordinary animal into a ferocious wild beast…. Current conditions do not match, advancement to Beast Tamer (Legendary) failed!]
