Chapter 10: Magic Teacher, Terrifying Python!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Mage — a profession that everyone in the Shipley Continent wanted.
Compared to swordsmen who also cultivated elements, mages were much more noble and precious.
Mages did not need to be like swordsmen who charged in the front-lines against demonic beasts or the other races and were often surrounded by a large number of enemies. Instead, they only needed to be at the back of the troops, and cast spells through incantations.
A single spell could destroy dozens of enemies.
Therefore, in the eyes of the people of the continent, mages who controlled magical elements were much more noble and respected than swordsmen.
Precisely so, the young men who knew how to use magic in the town were immediately notified when the teachers of the Sigt Magic Academy came to Laner Town to enroll students. They rushed out of their homes to try and get into the Sigt Magic Academy through a recommendation.
They viewed joining the best magic academies nearby as their lifelong honor.
If the townspeople learned of any success stories, they would feel honored as well. At the same time, many people would be deeply envious of them.
At this moment, a large number of young men in the town had already gathered in front of the old men, testing their magic talent through the magic crystal ball.
The magic crystal ball was created from a special crystal produced in the Shipley Continent. This crystal ball could sense the fluctuations and strength of the magical elements.
It was perfect for testing the quality of a person’s magic power.
Therefore, the young people in the town lined up in front of the magic ball. One by one, they placed their hands on the magic crystal ball and injected their own magic elements. The brighter the light produced by the crystal ball, the stronger the magic power, and the more suitable this person was to cultivate magic.
After the test, the few youngsters with the best results would be recruited into the Sigt Magic Academy.
At this moment, the long queue of youths from Laner Town also noticed Jobs’ figure.
It was simply because this peculiar figure standing alone outside the group was too conspicuous.
At first, they were still wondering who it was. Instead of waiting in line to test his magic talent and strive to be admitted into the Magic Academy when the teachers arrived, he was still standing there dumbfounded.
However, when they saw that it was Jobs, they immediately showed a look of understanding.
It was normal for the average person to have weak innate magic talent, but it was extremely rare for them to not have any innate magic talent. Thus, everyone remembered Jobs.
Possibly because they were in a state of excitement from waiting to test their magic and getting recruited into the Magic Academy, when the young men in the town saw Jobs, they started to tease him.
“Hey, Jobs, don’t worry. All of us know about your situation. After we test our magic talent and join the Sigt Magic Academy, we will protect you in the future.” A yellow-haired youth said with a smile.
He knew that Jobs could not sense any magical elements since he was a child. His name was Sekot, and he was a childhood friend of Jobs.
“That’s right. Don’t worry, I’ve passed the test and obtained the qualification to enter the Sigt Magic Academy. Although you can’t sense any magical elements, we’re all childhood friends. We won’t forget you. Just wait till we graduate!”
Roger, who had passed the test, walked over and patted Jobs’ shoulder.
“Say, Sekot, stop saying that about Jobs, it is such a pity. Oh Jobs, although you couldn’t sense the magical elements before, I feel that since the teachers of the Magic Academy are here, you can try touching the crystal ball. Who knows, you might just be able to sense some magical elements?” Connie, who was also a childhood friend, also spoke to Jobs.
Hearing their words, Jobs shook his head, “There’s no need to test it. It’s a fact that I can’t sense the magical elements.”
“Sekot, Connie, you two should focus on your magic tests first. I’m going home.” After saying that, Jobs turned around and left.
He knew very well that the teachers of the Magic Academy were here to recruit mage apprentices. He, who could not sense any magical elements, was destined to be different from his friends who were tested to have magic talent.
However, he did not feel as inferior as everyone thought.
Although he did not have any magical talent, he had another hidden power, the Monster Rearing System.
With the Monster Rearing System, he did not have to envy his friends who were about to enter the Magic Academy.
He knew very well that his unique ability would definitely have more potential and power than becoming a mage!
No matter how strong a mage was, even if they were a Rank Nine Mage, so what? At most, they could kill a thousand enemies with one strike.
On the other hand, his Monster Rearing System could nurture countless terrifying monsters. As long as he obtained enough monster points, not mentioning high-level demonic beasts, he could even nurture Overlord-level and King-level demonic beasts.
He imagined an army that had hundreds of King-level demonic beasts. Even a Grandmaster Mage would have to avoid them.
While he was thinking about that, Jobs had already returned home.
He, who had not slept for the entire night, was extremely tired at the moment and directly chose to sleep.
He fell into a deep sleep. By the time he woke up, it was already afternoon.
He went out to buy some food in the town, while he was leaving the shop, Jobs saw that a group of people were still gathered at the city gate, waiting for the magic test.
Jobs did not pay any attention to it. After returning home and having a simple meal, he immediately brought Little Yellow to the lawn in front of his house to kill any insects he could see.
The demon hunting team did not come to the town every day. Without them, he could only kill some small insects to accumulate monster points.
After all, no matter how little monster points they gave, they were still monster points. He could not waste them.
For the next few days, Jobs lived normally while killing insects.
This lasted for three days.
The group of magic teachers from the Sigt Magic Academy had finally finished testing all the young men with magic talent in the town. After selecting more than twenty excellent mage apprentices, they left town early in the morning.
At this moment, Jobs also seemed to recall that three days ago, he had thrown Big Green into the forest at the entrance of the town after it reached level 5. He wondered how the three days of hunting and plundering had gone.
When a pet that he reared hunted creatures alone in the wild, he could choose to allocate the monster points that were gained by killing the prey to himself. He could also choose to let his pet use those monster points to strengthen itself automatically.
By now, it was unknown just how far Big Green had evolved.
With that in mind, Jobs immediately headed for the forest where Big Green was.
At the same time, at another location.
…
In the forest at the entrance of Laner Town, the group of people from the Sigt Magic Academy were slowly advancing through the forest.
These teachers had just selected a batch of mage apprentices from Laner Town and were preparing to return to the Magic Academy. They had stayed in Laner Town for too long, they had to hurry back to the Magic Academy.
Thus, the leader of the group, Roddy, had decided at the last minute that they would not go back to the Sigt Magic Academy through the usual route. Instead, they would take a detour in the forest with poorer conditions to return to the academy as it was a shorter path.
Because of the presence of the three teachers, they were not afraid of the attacks of ordinary wild beasts. They could just cast a giant fireball and kill them instantly.
Then, the group of them walked through the forest at the entrance of Laner Town.
However, there was something surprising. Along the way, there were always corpses of large animals lying around.
The corpses of these animals were in a very miserable state. They were almost deformed to the point of being unrecognizable, it seemed like a proud hunter had taken action not for gathering food, but merely enjoyed the process of hunting prey.
At first, Roddy did not care too much about it. He thought that it would at most be a lion or a ferocious tiger, and would not pose any threat to them. However, as they walked, they eventually found a lion’s corpse on the way!
Roddy’s expression immediately changed. He had also sensed that something was amiss. He immediately ordered the other two teachers to watch over the students while he carefully investigated.
From the information on the corpse in front of him, he could tell that the lion had clearly just died. This way, the killer must be near them and had not gone far.
Roddy’s eyes flickered and he immediately cast an investigative magic.
“Detection!”
A blue ripple spread out. As if sensing something, Roddy immediately sensed the aura of an extremely powerful beast behind the grass in front of them.
At the same time, the ferocious beast locked onto them.
“Hisss~”
The hissing of a snake rang out, and an enormous python that was more than ten meters long immediately passed through the grass and arrived in front of everyone.
Big Green had also sensed the detection of the enemy’s Detection spell. It realized that this group of people in front of it could not be avoided just because it wanted to, so it slithered out directly.
The snake stared at everyone ferociously.
After seeing the giant python, Roddy and the rest of the people from the Sigt Magic Academy were stunned.
How could there be such a huge python!
At the same time, Roddy’s pupils shifted. Following that, he saw that in the middle of the python’s coiled body, there was a large water buffalo whose limbs had completely deformed.
“This python is actually killing the water buffalo!” Roddy expressed in slight surprise.
He did not expect the giant python to have mastered such a brutal skill to kill its prey with immense strength. Judging from the water buffalo’s condition, it seemed that the giant python was the cause of the large animals’ deaths that they had seen since entering the forest.
At this moment, the python was a low-level demonic beast. However, it was the strongest among the low-level demonic beasts and had the strength of a rank three human.
He was a Rank Four Mage, and the two magic teachers beside him were also Rank Three Mages.
With this lineup, it might not be difficult to kill this python.
However!
Looking at the ferocious giant python in front of him, Roddy had a shift of thoughts as another idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
The Sigt Magic Academy was currently capturing some low-level demonic beasts to raise as pets.
This python was exactly what they wanted.
Roddy’s lips curled up as a plan to capture the python appeared in his mind.
