Becoming a Wizard by Starting From the Mind Closure Technique

Chapter 257: Chapter 54’- Accelerate, Accelerate, and Accelerate Again_2

Even if it was hard for her to disentangle herself, she only had herself to blame.

What she was about to do was her own decision, she hadn’t consulted with Link about it.

And it was certainly not something Link had asked her to do.

So, when it really came down to it,

She was doing all this for herself, not for Link.

“I suggest that you reconsider it,”

Serene Wizard patiently advised, “The design of this experiment is not rigorous enough, and it lacks the necessary conditions in many aspects. It is highly likely to fail, or there may be other errors that could cause deviations in the experimental results. The most important thing is, once the experiment is done, it’s irreversible. If you regret it later, it will be too late to recover anything.”

“You’ve already warned me about these risks many times, and I’m aware of them.”

Jasmine sighed, “But, if I don’t do this, how can I ever catch up to him? If I can’t stand shoulder- to shoulder with him, how will I ever have the opportunity to capture his heart?”

Serene Wizarded looked at Jasmine thoughtfully, and curiously asked, “Based on what I know about you, you’re not the type of person who disregards everything for the sake of a man. Why are you willing to make such a great sacrifice for Link Grande?”

Jasmine was silent, uncertain how to respond to Serene Wizard.

Upon thinking about it, there wasn’t much of a story between her and Link.

Aside from the twisted events involving Rivers and Erick, everything else was quite peaceful.

Even during the major competitions in the two districts, the help Jasmine had given to Link during his fights wasn’t as much as that of Elise.

The two of them passed through two semesters of quite ordinary campus life, not even a full year.

Yet, emotions have no traceable origin, they just deepen over time.

Do they really need that many reasons?

Once she made this clear to herself and understood her own intentions, Jasmine’s resolve became even more firm.

She bowed to Serene Wizard again and pleaded, “I beg for your consent. I no longer wish to be a ‘Clinging Flower’, I wish to become a ‘Cotton Tree’!”

Serene Wizard stared at Jasmine for a long time.

It’s as if she saw herself from several decades ago.

She saw that girl who relentlessly studied Alchemy Pharmacy and Potion Study

for the one she loved;

She saw that silly girl who, ignoring the danger of an explosion, insisted on concocting a life-saving potion and fed it to her beloved person with her own hands;

She saw that foolish woman who, because of a shout, stepped down from a promising position in the frontline logistics, returned to the rear, and became an unchallenging potion shop owner.

“Ah, youth! Ah, love!”

Serene Wizard exclaimed, made up her mind, and agreed, “I accept! You should get ready. Once the preparatory work for the experiment here is done, I’ll let you know at any time.”

“Thankyou, Serene Wizard.”

Jasmine breathed a sigh of relief, respectfully bowed once again, her tone full of gratitude.

“Sigh!”

Serene Wizard sighed deeply, and left, her mood complex.

She herself didn’ t know whether her decision today was right or wrong.

She just hoped for a good result.

Jasmine watched Serene Wizard go away, with no joy or sorrow in her heart, and a calm mind.

She knew that Lokan Wizard bypassed everyone and privately told her that Serene Wizard was preparing an experiment to improve wizard qualifications, and that his intentions were not pure.

She also knew that the reason why Serene Wizard did not immediately agree to accept her as a “volunteer” was for her own good.

However, she still unhesitatingly stepped into this “trap” and made this “sacrifice”.

Her qualification as a third-class wizard apprentice is really too mediocre!

When will she be able to catch up with Link, whose cultivation speed flies as if on wings?

Let it be so.

There will be hope.

It’s always better than seeing no light at all in the future.

Link didn’t know that he was being thought of.

All he knew was that he was standing at a crossroads in his life.

A step forward would mean entering the Apprentice-level Cultivation Secret Realm, and an opportunity to considerably lead his peers.

There was nothing to hesitate about.

According to the instructions at the entrance of the Secret Realm, Link removed all his Rune Objects and Magic Tools, and placed them in the designated safe. Including the Second Ring Defense Magic Tool given by Wizard Palo.

If accidents were to happen in the Cultivation Secret realm, which is closely monitored by the Academy, then it wouldn’t make much difference whether Link carried the Second Ring Defense Magic Tool or not.

Dressed in loose and comfortable cotton clothes, Link calmly entered the Secret Realm.

Although it is called the Secret Realm, it was very similar to the space formed by the light wall for award distribution after the end of the major competition between the two districts.

The space was blank and endless, without a known height or depth.

The most notable feature was that as soon as Link entered, he felt that he was free from hunger and thirst, and both his spiritual and magic power were in an extremely excited state.

Without dwelling on the essence of the Cultivation Secret Realm, Link followed the call of instinct, found a place to sit cross-legged and began deep meditation.

The third layer of “Water Wood Mutual Growth Meditation Method” was running smoothly.

His spiritual and magic power rose visibly fast, inching up to the limit of a third-class wizard apprentice, 99 points.

In terms of the condensing degree of spiritual power and the purity of magic power, Link, who had first undergone an “encounter and realization” (seen in the first volume, Chapter 29), then experienced a minor transformation in the Sea of Consciousness, and finally received the “blessing” of the Will of the World, was not inferior to a general First Level Wizard.

Therefore, in a very short period of time (even though Link was in the Cultivation Secret Realm and couldn’t perceive the accurate passage of time), he reached the limit of the amount of spiritual power for a third-class wizard apprentice, 99 points.

Afterwards, Link immediately switched to the fourth layer of “Water Wood Mutual Growth Meditation Method”.
