Warlock Apprentice

Angor felt refreshed when he woke up.

He was able to sense his spirit power during meditation now. Furthermore, without having to go through the second step, he could manipulate the power to practice it!

“A satisfying result… despite feeling a crack on my head,” Angor told himself. He felt content.

There were three steps before becoming an apprentice wizard. One, sensing spirit power. And two, controlling the power. Angor no longer had to go through the second step, and this saved him a lot of time and effort. However, this was not really an outstanding feat since the second step usually did not take long for most people.

So only the third challenge remained: to build a spiritual model.

Once his spiritual model was complete enough to channel mana flow, Angor could finally be considered a supernatural.

Instead of building the model right away, Angor stood up and turned off his tablet. He left it running when he fainted yesterday, and he checked the time on it before putting it away.

Balba was carrying a calm expression. However, the man was actually hiding his hands behind his back, which were trembling a little, meaning that he was actually pretty stressed.

“Need something?” Angor asked.

Balba stayed silent. When Angor was becoming a little impatient, he finally spoke in his raucous voice.

“Your professor is Mister Sunders, right? ‘Phantom Master’ Sunders.”

“Yes.”

It was already publicly known. Due to this, Angor was quite the topic among apprentices for a time.

“My professor is Miss Flora, who’s also Mister Sunders’ student.”

“That’s right.”

Balba looked really tensed up, “Do you know about Miss Flora?”

Angor thought about that question before answering him, “I do. On the cloud whale, Miss Flora helped me a lot.”

Balba looked a little happy at hearing the answer.

“Wonderful. Can I ask something? If you help me, I promise I’ll pay for anything in return.”

…

After bidding goodbye to Balba, Angor walked away with a big frown on his face.

Balba was assigned to Flora randomly because he did not receive any posters. Angor knew about this. But he did not know what happened to Balba after that.

Over a month, Flora never paid Balba a single visit, let alone teaching him. Balba had not even begun to learn his channeling method yet.

The other talents in the same term all took their first step on their path to wizardry while Balba remained in one place. This was why Balba was getting really anxious. When he saw Angor, he desperately tried to ask for assistance, hoping that Angor could help him ask Flora why she desolated him.

This favor was easy to do. Still, Angor did not agree right away. The boy only said that he did not see Flora often, but he would help to ask the question if he managed to meet her.

Angor did not know whether this was Flora’s way of testing Balba, and asking such a question now could be bad manners. This could also mean breaking the boundary as a student. Even if Flora was also Sunders’ student, Angor could create an unpleasant record with Flora because of this.

This was why Angor decided to ask for Sunders’ opinion first the next time he went to Phantom Island.
