Chapter 69: The Two Spells
Chapter 69: The Two Spells
Jim started to observe the two tokens in hand. Both were in the same size as he could easily close up his fist over it.
One of them had red golden color and the other was silver white. 'Do you what spells both contained old man?' After a couple of minutes he decided to ask for the help of his old man.
'You need to test them before knowing what they are doing,' the old man said before adding, 'Just drop a single blood over them and see for yourself.'
Jim hesitated before asking, 'Won't this teach me the two spells?'
'Indeed,' the old man read his mind as he added, 'are you afraid they will take much time to learn? No, they can be learnt in no time. But mastering them will take longer.'
'Sure? I have a fight to rage in a couple of hours from now.'
'Don't worry, just start.'
Jim nodded before he cut his hand with his sword and let his blood fall upon the golden one. The moment the blood touched the orb it was absorbed at once.
And next he felt a sudden shock in his mind where much info was forcibly injected there by hidden force. He stayed in this trance state for a couple of minutes before finally being relieved.
"Damn, this orb is really OP!" he couldn't help but exclaim out in shock while observing the orb like eyeing a monster.
'Hahaha, this is a clan spell and for your luck it's something you will greatly benefit from,' the old man was in a good mood before adding, 'c'mon let's see the other one.'
Jim didn't hesitate anymore as he dropped his blood over the second orb. He went into the same state of trance but for a slightly shorter duration.
"This is good," he exclaimed in excitement the moment he was freed from this weird state. "It's not as OP as the first one, but it's also strong."
'You got yourself two compatible spells that's beginner's luck.'
'Nah, it's my luck,' Jim grabbed the two orbs tightly before muttering, 'I now understand why I shouldn't let anyone train on these two. I need to be sure they won't betray me under any circumstances.'
'The strongest bond is the slave bond,' the old man said.
'But'
'I know you hate it, but at least you aren't treating them as your slave but followers and even friends,' the old man tried to coat this up, 'besides there is no other option in front of you.'
'Sigh,' Jim shook his head before glancing over the two orbs in his hands, 'these are worth more effort to guard and more cautious measurements from me,' he tightly grabbed them before asking, 'can I use them at once?'
'You can,' the old man said, 'but I advise you not.'
Jim stored the two before thinking more about the response of his old man. 'keeping them hidden for the arena?'
'You need to be more prepared,' the old man said before adding, 'surprise is the most important element of victory in any fight.'
'Indeed,' Jim then slept for a few hours before waking up on a knocking. He opened the door, received his breakfast meal and started eating it there while his mind was only stirred up around the two spells he just learnt.
"Damn," from time to time he couldn't control his excitement and exclaim loudly like this. "It's time to make our move," he then exited the room and started knocking on each room of his mates and then gathered them down below.
Some looked like they woke up early and looked refreshed, but the two girls seemed like they were still sleeping, along with Lan who kept yawning all the time.
"Can't we just attack them at midday? Why acting so early?" he asked while yawning.
"Stop being lazy," Roo laughed at him while patting his shoulder with his scissor-like hand, "we used to wake up just when the first light in the sky appears."
"What for? The day won't run away!" Lan was still yawning and his complaints made others laugh.
"Alright," Jim said to end this funny debate, "we are heading to the gate where we are going to accept more members to our little team," he said before winking to Deno, "I hope you can rejoice. At least one Bulltor will be there."
Deno's face instantly lit up as he hurried to ask: "How did you manage to get your hands on another Bulltor this soon?"
Jim just laughed and said nothing while the team kept asking many questions about who was going to join them and how he got such an addition while they were in the hotel.
For him he didn't know much as them, so he kept his silence and his mind was focusing on something else, his newly acquired spells.
"Over here," from far away the sound of Rili appeared shouting at the small team attracting their attention.
"Holy moly" Rick was instantly shocked by what he just saw, "there is not one Bulltor, but five!" he exclaimed in shock while Jim only smiled and said nothing.
The most shocked one here was Deno who hurriedly ran towards the five Bulltors as he started to speak with them even before Jim reached there.
"Jim, they are slightly older than me by a couple of years but they are far more experienced in fighting," Deno was so much excited as he added, "damn, how could you get your hands over them?"
Jim laughed again and shifted his gaze towards the group. There were twenty new members of his team there, five Bulltors, five shapeshifters, five staff holding race which looked like goblins but with long stature like humans, and finally five fog races who had only their bodies been formed entirely of fog in different colors.
"Welcome to my team," Jim said in welcome and the next instant they all knelt on the ground while saying in unison, "we greet our master."
"Stand up," Jim said before adding, "I'm your master, but with me you must act more on ease. I don't treat you as my slaves, but my friends."
