The Legendary Mage novel Chapter 50

"Thank you for your guidance."

"No need for thanks." The quiet Protégé smiled and nodded, returning to his perusal of a tome on Combat Magic.

Alavin, with the scroll of Goliath Force tucked under his arm, wandered among the bookshelves once more.

Tomes on lightning-based Combat Magic were rare indeed, and after scouring the third level, he had managed to find only five. Among them was 'Thundervein Valor,' the very tome Galos was practicing.

Alavin leaned against a shelf to study it, hoping to better understand his opponent, Galos.

Before long, someone came to the third level to remind Alavin, "Your time is nearly up."

Elite Protégés had the privilege of coming and going from the Sanctum of Mystical Scrolls as they pleased, unlike the common Protégés.

After leaving the sanctum with Goliath Force in hand, Alavin went to sign out with the Elder.

"Let's see what you've chosen," the Elder said, taking the scoll from Alavin. He meticulously checked each book before it was borrowed, ensuring no pages were missing. That way, if any were absent upon return, it was clear that the Protégé had tampered with it.

The Elder looked at Alavin in surprise. "Goliath Force? Are you certain you want this one?"

Alavin signed his name. "I am certain."

"I've warned you before, it's best to start with something more suitable for novices when you first delve into Combat Magic. Tier-4 Novice Combat Magic isn't necessarily weak; it's just more straightforward and easier to master. The power of Combat Magic isn't in its strength, but in how well it suits you.

“Also, remember that you can borrow each Combat Magic tome for three months. Are you sure you can master it in that time? And I must remind you, it's forbidden to copy any of the Combat Magic from the Sanctum of Mystical Scrolls in secret."

"Don't worry, Elder, I understand your concern."
