181 Big Commotion



“Right,” Zevien nodded as he infused his mana into the crystal orb, which then melted into his hand and disappeared. When he focused, He saw this crystal orb appearing inside his magic eidos body before it floated beside the magic core and connected with it via a faint blue chain.

Afterward, Zevien activated the crystal orb by infusing a bit of mana into it….

*swoosh….*

A magic circle appeared in front of Zevien before mana from the atmosphere started rushing towards the magic circle. It even disrupted several kilometers around the area!

Vernisia and Zevien looked at each other, shocked! This big commotion will be noticed by everyone for sure!

The students around the area were shocked as well.

“What’s going on?!”

“All mana is going on that hill! That’s Zevien and Vernisia’s abode.”

“Damn, what are they doing?”

Suddenly, Headmaster Noril and other headteachers arrived on the hill and stood outside their abode.

“You all stay here and guard. I’ll go inside alone,” Headmaster Noril said to the headteachers.

“Master, do you know what is happening?” Karina asked.

“This is a familiar phenomenon,” said Noril while nodding as silver sparks started covering him. “Just stay here and guard,” he said before he teleported inside the abode.

Zevien and Vernisia saw Noril in the room in front of them. But they were not surprised because they knew that such a big commotion would definitely attract him.

“So it is indeed a phenomenon when a magic art is activated for the first time,” Noril said as he raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Zevien and Vernisia wryly smiled. They didn’t know this would happen.

Five seconds later, the magic circle finally stopped absorbing mana from the atmosphere and produced mystical white and blue motes that gathered together to create an exact copy of Zevien, but it was naked.

Zevien quickly took out a robe and covered his clone with it.

“A magic art that summons your clone?” The spell surprised Noril. “How did you manage to get your hands on a magic art?”

“Umm, you know… we got a golden treasure chest from completing a dungeon. I opened one and got the chalice from it,” Zevien said as he told everything to headmaster Noril as there was no use hiding it.

“Nice luck, hahaha,” Noril laughed while shaking his head. “My colleague from Astral Land recently contacted me about this same chalice as he also got one. So, what rank is that magic art?”

“The chalice was of profound-rank, and the magic art it just produced is also a profound-rank,” Vernisia answered.

“P-profound rank?” Headmaster Noril’s eyes became wide in shock. “Quick, tell me. What are the characteristics of that clone?”

“First, I can summon it anytime I want,” Zevien said as he waved his hand, and his clone disappeared. But when he waved his hand again with the intent of summoning it, his clone re-appeared in front of him.

“Second, it will always have the same magic power as me,” Zevien said before he activated his shaman-seed to check because he also wanted to know if the clone can benefit from shaman-seed power up or not. He didn’t go with full power but just increased his magic power by 1000.

Surprisingly, the clone in front of him had also increased his magic power by 1000.

“Lastly, it can cast all spells I have with my command,” Zevien said as he commanded the clone to cast <Raging Body> to increase its physical prowess.

The clone consumed mana from its body and cast the spell!

“Profound-rank magic art… this can indeed be called a profound-rank magic art,” Noril muttered before he sighed. “I’m speechless.”

“Headmaster, do you have a magic art?” Vernisia asked curiously.

“I have one,” Noril wryly smiled. “But it is below profound rank. I don’t even have any spells of profound-rank, but I am learning one right now. Profound-rank magics are generally used by Astral Wizard, and I am still one step away from being one.”

“Headmaster, can you please keep this a secret?” Zevien said with a wry smile. “Please don’t tell anyone that I have a magic art about cloning.”

“Oh? Why? It’s not like people can snatch magic art away from you. It’s bound to you,” headmaster Noril said.

“You already know I have another identity, right? Because of that incident with the Blood Sun Organization, I’m planning to use this clone for situations where both my identities need to be attended at the same time at the same place or different places,” Zevien said.

“Oh, I see. I forgot you had another identity, hahaha. Alright fine, I won’t tell anyone about it,” Noril nodded with a smile. “Honestly, this chalice managed to produce a magic art because what you wished for was not too demanding in a way and could match your strength.”

Vernisia and Zevien nodded as they understood.

“The conditions are already laid out there,” Zevien smiled. “The clone will always have the same magic power as me and can cast spells I have. In a way, this isn’t too overpowered because it’s not more powerful than me. Though, the information mentioned that I need to completely comprehend this magic art and fully assimilate into my magic eidos body to improve it.”

“Indeed,” Noril said while caressing his beard with a smile. “If you infused crude spell concepts that you couldn’t handle at your level, it wouldn’t have worked. But this clone is perfect.”

“Haha, it was all Vernisia’s idea,” Zevien said with a proud laugh.

“You would have thought about it sooner or later.”

“Credits where credit is due, darling.”

“Alright, this old man will take his leave now. You can continue to flirt, hahaha.”

Headteachers saw their master coming out with a smile on his face and were curious.

“What was it, master?”

“It looks like something good happened.”

Seeing his students asking questions, Headmaster Noril told them that it was just an effect of a relic they used. As he promised Zevien, he didn’t tell anyone about the magic art.

“Anyway, we can expect a good future with these our current students,” Noril said smilingly as he and other headteachers flew back to their academic palace. He was actually happy for Zevien to have magic art this early since it would aid him. Moreover, he was very impressed with Zevien and his gang’s performance. All of them were a hardworking bunch.

‘I can’t wait till you all step on the big stage,’ Headmaster Noril thought with high hopes.
