Throne of Magical Arcana Chapter 201

Chapter 201: Monitoring

Translator: Kris_Liu Editor: Vermillion

Holding the journal in his hand, Lucien was a bit lost in his own thoughts.

If anyone was interested in the young sorcerer who had no arcana level, and thus decided to investigate him in Sorcerer Administrative Department, the person would find out that the young sorcerer came from the continent and shared the same name with the great musician in Aalto.

It would be even worse if anyone in Allyn had ever seen Lucien in Aalto before, and if he was recognized by someone from the Hand of Paleness, it would definitely be a great trouble for him. Because of what happened in Djibouti, Lucien was afraid that many people would directly connect him to Professor.

Thinking of these, Lucien started feeling unsafe. He was regretful that he carelessly used his real name when he submitted the paper, as he never expected that his first paper ever would be cited by a grand arcanist and thus gained that much unnecessary attention. Now, he felt that he was standing under a giant spotlight.

He knew he was being overly relaxed and incautious ever since he arrived in Allyn. Again, he drew an important lesson from it.

In a couple of seconds, lots of thoughts flashed through Lucien’s mind.

“Hey… Hey!” Rock nudged Lucien lightly, “Are you being too excited?”

The last junior-rank sorcerer whose paper got cited by a grand arcanist was Ulysses when he was about twenty. Although Felipe’s paper on the relation between cell memory and healing divine power spells won the Immortal Throne Award jointly set up by Colette Royal Magic Academy and the Hand of Paleness following Holm Crown Prize, at that time he was already a level two arcanist, third circle sorcerer. As a sorcerer having no arcana level, Lucien’s achievement was definitely very impressive.

“Ah… a bit…” Lucien forced a smile on his face. “Quite surprising…”

Then, Lucien hurriedly read through the paper from Lord of Storm, and he was deeply shocked with the grand arcanist’s great intelligence:

“Summarizing all the experiments and statistics, we can draw the conclusion that electromagnetic wave can for sure be used in searching and locating, and it’s much faster than high frequency sound waves. However, since the feedback is not clear enough, a special magic structure needs to be produced to filter and emphasize information received. The structure requires lots of calculation, thus I would consider this future magic as a forth of fifth circle spell, and here I name it beforehand – ‘Eye of Thunder’.

“At the same time, we can also see that when the vibration of electromagnetic wave reaches a higher frequency, with enough power and energy, internal molecular of the experiment target start colliding with each other and high heat is thus produced. This experiment phenomenon could be turned into another powerful spell to defeat someone who is skilled in defence from inside. I expect it to be a fifth or sixth circle magic, and following the tradition, I call it ‘Fernando’s Lightning Smelter’.

“Improving the frequency to the next level, using the great heat produced in the reaction, another powerful magic can thus be created, which is also a fifth or sixth circle magic. I call it ‘Invisible Crematory’.

“If we wanted to improve the frequency to an even higher level, we would enter the field of light.”

Lucien was very impressed, as the grand arcanist basically found all of the major applications of electromagnetic wave at different frequencies. If the grand arcanist had not stopped in front of the world of light, Lucien was sure that Fernando would come up with more spells!

Without doubt, grand arcanists were great geniuses. Even when they made mistakes, it was not because of their lack of intelligence, but very often they were deceived by their previous experiences, and as long as they were inspired, they would have the ability to change the world!

“Bye bye… my future arcana credits and points.” Lucien sighed, “The grand arcanist did not leave me much to further explore in the application of electromagnetic wave.”

Lucien handed the journal back to Rock.

When the other teacher started carefully reading the article, in the corner, Lucien was still bothered by the thought that his identity had already been exposed.

However, feeling anxious could not do much help. Right now the best solution for Lucien to take was to gain the attention of the Will of Element. If the Will of Element could see the great value in Lucien, they would definitely protect him to stand against the Hand of Paleness.

When Lucien came to himself, he saw Rock, Jerome, Vilnia and other people present were looking at him with a mixture of emotions. Only K was still reading the paper.

“Yes?” asked Lucien confusedly.

Vilnia frowned a bit and then put on a wry smile, “I can imagine what Beate and other sorcerers in the school of Electromagnetism would say. They will proudly announce that the future of the world is in the hand of Electromagnetism. However, it is you who inspired Mr. Fernando Brastar, the author of the great paper supporting their assertion…”

Lucien understood what she was trying to say. If felt that it was Lucien who handed the decisive weapon to win the battle to their enemies, but Lucien was also innocent.

The other teachers also felt the same way.

“I don’t really mind it,” said K in his low voice, trying to comfort his colleague. “Lucien did a great job, and the progress does not belong to a certain school, but to the whole congress. The truth of the world won’t be changed by the meaningless arrogance of some people.”

Jerome smiled, “Sorry, we just don’t like people like Beate, and it’s not your fault at all, Lucien.”

“Come on, Lucien can publish more great papers exploring the world of elements as well!” Rock waved his arms and cheered up.

The teachers got more relaxed now, and they started discussing some related academic topics heatedly. The apprentices were listening to them carefully, as if they were enjoy some exciting stories.

When it was early afternoon, some teachers left Lucien’s place, followed by the apprentices. Only Chely looked quite lost in her own thoughts.

“Hey, Chely. Time to go.” Heidi patted her on the shoulder.

Chely suddenly came back to herself, and then she said shyly, “Watching Mr. Evans and the other teachers’ discussion brought me back to the days when I watched my father discussing with his knights in our place. The teachers’ conversation was passionate and insightful, and it’s not like how people in Sturk describe sorcerers at all. Since the first day I arrived in Allyn, I am deeply touched by what I’ve seen… This place is like a dream, but I’m also afraid…”

“Communication…” Lucien responded. “Communication’s always very important when people face difficulties.”

Lucien believed that if Natasha and Silvia could have communicated in a better way, they would not end up like that.

Chely nodded but still felt quite depressed.

Seeing this, Lucien walked to the piano sitting in the living room. It was the school who sent the piano, since Lucien was also teaching music.

The music Lucien started playing was very familiar to most Chinese kids – Two Tigers.

“Cheer up; Cheer up; little Chely, little Chely! The bell’s ringing; the bell’s ringing; Don’t be late, Don’t be late.”

Lucien sang the young girl a cute song. A smile jumped on Chely’s face, and Heidi, Layria and Annick behaved the same. The apprentices all burst out into laughter.

“Thank you, Mr. Evans. Your playing’s wonderful.” Chely stood up and said sincerely.

After the apprentices left Lucien’s place happily, Lucien walked to his study with a smile on his face, however, he felt a bit stressed in his mind.

Since some elements here in this world were different from what he had learned in his original world, Lucien was now having a hard time grouping them in order. As he could not identify some of the elements, Lucien could only temporarily consider them as some strange isotopes, however, currently he could not go any further.

He must hurry. He must win enough attention from the Will of Elements.

Sitting in front of the pile of cards representing different elements, when Lucien was about to continue his research, he suddenly felt something hot in front of his chest.

The heat came from Sun’s Corona! It was alerting Lucien that some undead creature was approaching him!

Lucien’s facial expression did not change even in the slightest, but quickly he thought to himself, “There must be some powerful undead thing staying right beside me… but why it hasn’t launched its attack? Is it trying to see what I am doing?”

Sun’s Corona was the undeads’ invincible opponent!
