Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method

Chapter 23: [Mirror]



Chapter 23: [Mirror]

Back in his territory, Levi reaped the rewards of this Wolf King hunt.

Levi has a total of 108 mountain wolf corpses, and one piece of wolf fur is worth about ten silver coins; one gold coin is worth one hundred silver coins. In short, with these 108 mountain wolf corpses, he could get ten gold coins, which is equivalent to one or two months of income from his territory.

As for the meat, Levi gave some as condolences to the family members of those who perished in battle and stored the rest in the castle. Blackwater Valley was like a large, natural refrigerator during the winter, so he didnt have to worry about them spoiling.

When the weather gets warmer, he plans to turn them into bacon.

Besides, his pet bears were expensive to feed and definitely not something a weak Baron like him could afford. This stash of meat has solved his urgent need.

Of course, the value of these mountain wolves was nothing compared to the contents of the iron box in that cave.

In that iron box was a hidden stash of gold coins. Levi counted them, and he was surprised to calculate a total of 327 gold coins.

Moreover, since these gold coins were minted 800 years ago, they would surely be worth more than the price of current gold coins.

In this world, many lords and barons have their own right to mint coins. For convenience, the Emerald Kingdom established a unified coinage standard.

He could also buy five bottles of ambergris, which would be enough for him to become a knight in an instant.

Despite this windfall, he decided to continue to rely on forging as his main source of income. After all, he needed a stable source of income. He cant possibly count on the blessings of the Loving Father to fall from the sky, now, can he?

Of course, what Levi liked the most was the set of armour.

He assumed this was a set of magic armour since it was crafted by a witch. After days of research, he found some intricate mechanisms of the armour.

On the inside of the armour, he found strange patterns, so he guessed that they were like magic circles or runes of the witch.

Thankfully, Witch Gullveig had thoughtfully engraved the instructions for using the armour within a manual that was stuck to the armour.

Fortunately, the characters used by the Witch were not different from the current language.

Soon, Levi knew how to use this armour.

This is a custom-made armour, forged by yours truly, Miss Gullveig. Only those with the blood of the Mellon family, or users who have mastered the Frost Giants Breathing Method, may use this armour.

This armour is made of mithril, and the following spells are embedded in it.

  1. Ring Trick [Automatic Assembly] Once the owner casts this spell, the armour is automatically assembled around the owners body and adapts to the size of the owner. This does not consume an ether stone, but it needs to tap into the ether itself to cool down for a day.
  1. Ring Trick [Mirror] Once the owner casts this spell while having the armour equipped, perform a combat skill once, and the armour will automatically store this combat skill. This can be used to protect the owner when incapacitated, but the actual effect will be weaker than that of the owners own combat prowess. The cooldown is seven days.
  1. Ring Spell [Sigh of a Frost Giant] This spell can only be used by the blood of the Mellon family or a user of Frost Giants Breathing Method. Once this spell is cast, rapidly reduce the surrounding temperature, and freeze your enemies. The cooldown is 30 days, but if you use an ether store, there is no cooldown.

Once this armour is sold, it cannot be refunded. This is a Gullveig Boutique exclusive and is not sold elsewhere

After reading the manual, Levi felt complicated.

On one hand, he could see the tip of the iceberg of the wizarding world, and it excited him.

On the other hand, he couldnt use this armour.

This ring is just a switch, he sighed as he toyed with it. The real key is the blood of the Mellon family. The Great Knight mustve made a deal with the Witch, going to great lengths to flee with the armour and hiding it deep underground.

Perhaps he was looking forward to a Mellon resurgence, he concluded. If other people were to get their hands on this, its useless. Only those with Mellon blood in them can use this.

Levi fiddled with the armour, but it seemed that the armour refused to budge for him.

As for the Frost Giants Breathing Method, he was in a stump.

Breathing methods and techniques are blood-only. If he wanted to obtain the blood of the Mellon family and somehow infuse their blood into his, it would be impossible. They are already extinct!

Damn it! he cursed out loud. Whats the point of this if I cant use it?

I do have a proficiency panel, though, he wondered. Could I practise their breathing method this way? If I locate the secrets to the Frost Giant Breathing Method, perhaps I could learn it too.

Levi felt that this armour was important; it could help him look for traces of wizards in the future.

I need to look up the history of the Mellon family.

Levi stowed the armour away and kept it in good condition. The mountain wolf incident was a blessing in disguisenot only did he earn back the losses, but he also found clues that led to wizards.

Of course, he had to return to mundanity. Practise the Black Snake Breathing Method daily.

Its time to buy ambergris, he decided, and then, he would prepare. He planned to step out of the territory to prepare the ingredients for the Black Snake medicine.
