The son of the dragon who walks

Chapter 4 Four-leaf clover and Ciel’s magic

March is the season of flying dandelions. Once a year, all teenagers over the age of fifteen in the Clover Kingdom gather at grimoire towers in various places to participate in the magic book granting ceremony.

During the ceremony, not only can you get your own magic book, but it is also a rare opportunity in your life to enhance your magic power.

Of course, whether you obtain the quality of the magic book or increase the total amount of magic power, it is related to your personal talent.

Let me reiterate again, this is a world where magic is paramount, and everything is closely related to magic.

In this world, almost all professions require the power of magic. Even farmers working in the fields must use magic. Not to mention the magic knights that countless people dream of becoming!

Of course, there is more than one grimoire tower. Ciel, Asta and Yuno were led by the priest to the grimoire tower in the area where Haji Village is located.

On the way, Charles saw many young people of the same age walking into the cylindrical building.

Sunlight shines into the interior of the tower through the clover-patterned skylight. Although it is a bit dark, everyone can clearly see the things inside the tower.

Thousands of magic books are placed on the circularly arranged bookshelves, and it is impossible to figure out the exact number at first glance.

Ciel even felt a sense of insignificance before such a huge number of grimoires.

Those are not ordinary things, but magic books that contain magic power. Ciel, who has superhuman magic perception, can clearly feel the powerful magic power as if it were the stars in the sky.

"Awesome! Are these all magic books?"

Asta's way of expressing shock was much more direct, but his loud voice also attracted many people's attention.

Charles frowned because he had already heard the comments from the people around him.

He has heard too many similar discussions in the past five years in the church in Haji Village. Just because of his background, just because he is a subordinate at the bottom, his future and dreams will be questioned.

Especially for Asta, who can't even use a little magic, he is like a celebrity in the surrounding area. However, most of this fame comes from everyone's teasing.

"It's really disappointing...!"

Ciel whispered, and his body suddenly burned with flames reaching into the sky.

But it was not a flame, but the powerful magic power released by Ciel. Because the magic power was so powerful, it condensed into a blazing flame.

"It's so fast!"

As Ciel spoke the remaining half of his sentence, his magic power was released unscrupulously, and the magic flame became even more raging.

Although it was not a real flame, everyone in the tower, including the person who just mocked everyone for being shabby, all felt a real burning sensation.

Not only that, the grimoires in the entire tower shook, as if they were trembling under Ciel's magic.

The air seemed to have become thicker, making it difficult to breathe.

The only ones who could maintain their posture under Ciel's magic were the church members who were deliberately avoided by Ciel. As for the others, they were all so oppressed by the magic that they could not even straighten their waists.

No, there is another person...!

The Master of the Magic Book Tower, whose beard and hair were all white, raised his head, revealing his eyes hidden in the shadow of the brim of his pointed magic hat, and looked at Ciel in surprise.

"What a powerful magic power, this young man... is really incredible!"

Ciel also sensed the powerful yet calm lake-like magic power, and raised his head to look at the old man high up.

"Another sweeper-like figure!" Charles thought to himself, bowed to the tower master and withdrew his magic power.

The tower owner smiled and whispered: "Unexpectedly, he is still a polite child!"

As he spoke, he controlled the flying carpet under his feet to fall from a high place. At the same time, he also activated the amplification magic.

"Welcome to all of you to participate in the magic book granting ceremony. I wish you honesty and hope in your future life as you are about to embark on a different path, and hope to walk with love!

I am the tower owner of the Magic Book Tower. In our area, not to mention the Magic Emperor, there are not even people who can join the Magic Knights and make great achievements!

I hope one of you can become the Magic Emperor!"

As soon as the tower master's words came out, everyone's eyes lit up.

Since the first generation of Magic Emperor defeated the devil and saved mankind, the Magic Emperor has become a legend and everyone's dream.

Especially Asta, although he didn't yell about becoming the Magic Emperor like usual, his eyes were full of determination.

Even Yuno, who was usually facially paralyzed, had a hint of excitement on his face.

But suddenly the tower owner showed a rather exaggerated expression and said loudly: "Really, I'm not kidding!"

As he spoke, his eyes turned towards Ciel. In the view of the tower master, it was not impossible for this young man to become the Magic Emperor.

After coughing, the tower master regained his composure and continued: "Then, the magic book granting ceremony begins now."

As the Tower Master finished speaking, some magic books placed on the bookshelf glowed and automatically flew up from the bookshelf and landed on the teenagers below.

Everyone picked up their magic books and couldn't wait to check them out.

Some people's magic books are big, some people's magic books are thicker, and some people have palm-sized magic books. It can be said that there are all kinds of strange books.

People who get the magic book can't wait to plan their future life.

The two people who just mocked Asta the most have also obtained Clover's magic book, and have begun to discuss taking part in the Magic Knights' entrance test in half a year.

I don't know if it was to show off, but they discussed it quite loudly, and it sounded like they were sure of success.

Just then, a voice came out.

"Um...why didn't my magic book come over?"

Asta knelt on one knee and raised his hands as if ready to catch something. But there was nothing in his hands, and no magic book fell on it at all.

The tower owner had never encountered such a thing before. He was silent for a while and then said: "Oh... then come back next year!"

"Why!!!!"

Asta's expression changed and he looked like a clown, making everyone laugh!

"What the hell!"

"On the contrary, he said it was amazing!"

"It's so funny!"

“I can’t believe it!”

At this moment, a ray of light lit up, attracting everyone's attention.

In the light, a magic book rotated slowly, and of course the pattern on the cover was revealed.

The tower owner's eyes that had been slightly closed opened and he whispered: "That's...a four-leaf clover!"

The Demon God's Skull is in Haji Village, and people near the stone statue of the first Magic Emperor at the top are very familiar with it.

The magic book in the hand of the stone statue of the first-generation Magic Emperor has the pattern of a four-leaf clover.

The book fell, Yuno grabbed the magic book in a very handsome posture and said as if announcing: "I will definitely become...the Magic Emperor!"

Asta, who often said such things, would only be laughed at, but Yuno, who was holding the four-leaf clover magic book at this time, made people believe that his future could really come true.

So, everyone cheered.

Amidst the cheers, a more dazzling light lit up. And its dazzling intensity was no worse than Yuno's four-leaf clover magic book.

With the same pattern of four leaves, everyone couldn't believe that they saw two four-leaf clover magic books appearing in one day.

Ciel reached out to catch the magic book. At first glance, he did not look at the four-leaf clover pattern on the cover, but turned it over and looked at the back.

On the back is a strange emblem, with a giant dragon spreading its wings in a circling shape, and half surrounded by the dragon is a pattern of a lush ancient tree.

What's strange is that the color of the ancient trees is not the green that represents nature and plants, but black with silvery light spots like the starry sky.

Ciel couldn't help but recall Ignilu's words!

"Listen up, Ciel! There is a powerful power sleeping in your body, which even surpasses the power of a dragon. If you have to say what it is, it is the power that only gods can have.

One day that kind of power will awaken. When that day comes, don’t be dazzled by the powerful force, just strengthen your beliefs and keep moving forward!”

The moment he got the magic book, Ciel understood what Igniru said about the power sleeping in his body.

The power of the world!

As the name suggests, it is the power brought by the blessing of the concept of the world itself.

Ciel opened the magic book, and lines of magic text automatically appeared on the originally blank page.

In this world, the magic book will show the magic mastered by the magician. The generation of text from the magic book means weaving new magic.

In addition to learning magical knowledge, the magic book will also generate new magic in response to the owner's powerful prayers. Of course, the prerequisite is that the magician has the corresponding magic power.

As Ciel expected, what appeared at the beginning was not the dragon-slaying magic learned from Igniru, but a new world magic.

Two magic spells appeared in the magic book. Although there were only two magic spells, Ciel was satisfied.

The first magic is called World Protection, which is a permanent magic.

At first, Ciel thought that his physique that ignored the side effects of dragon-slaying magic was a golden finger, but now it seems that it is just one of the effects of this magic.

Tolerance to everything is the fundamental characteristic of the world.

The functions of world protection include:

·Increase magic power and physical fitness simultaneously, and the effect will be enhanced with exercise.

·Give your own magic power the ability to interfere with any form of energy.

Among them, Ciel is most optimistic about the second effect. Taking this world as an example, the demons that appear later come from another world - Hades, so ordinary magic has no effect on them.

Only magic that can interfere with another world, the so-called underworld magic, is useful in battle.

And with the protection of the world, Ciel's dragon-slaying magic is also effective against demons.

There are many such existences in other worlds, such as the Six Paths-level characters in the Naruto world and the natural ability users in the Pirate world. Ciel can fight them without learning magic or domineering.

As for why we talk about other worlds, it's because of Ciel's second world magic.

World Magic·World Travel! As the name suggests, it is magic used to travel through different worlds. That is also Ciel's hope of returning to the Fairy Tail world.

Of course, after all, we have to travel across the world, and the magic power required to activate this magic is not a small amount. Even if the current Ciel is drained, it cannot be activated.

But I finally have a goal, and then I just need to keep getting stronger in this direction.

The magic book continued to turn pages, and the next text that appeared was the dragon-slaying magic mastered by Ciel.

The fire dragon's iron fist, the fire dragon's wing strikes, the fire dragon's sword horns... the fire dragon's roar!

The Secret of Dragon Slayer: Red Lotus Explosive Flame Blade, the Secret of Dragon Slayer: Shiranui Type: Red Lotus Phoenix Sword!

There are even many magics that Ciel had conceived for a long time but could not take shape due to various problems. They appeared automatically after the grimoire responded to Ciel's wish.

With a movement of his palm, Ciel closed the magic book.

Only then did Ciel notice the surprised looks of the people around him. He didn't make any declaration like Yuno did, Ciel just smiled at everyone in the church.

At this moment, Asta, who had been kneeling on the ground, suddenly stood up, turned around and said to the two of them: "Yuno, Ciel! Just wait, I will catch up soon, we are competitors!"

As soon as Asta said this, everyone in the tower was silent for a moment, and then burst into even louder laughter.

A person who doesn't even have a magic book dares to claim that he is a competitor with two clover wizards, which is simply laughable.

"I can't believe it!" Yuno didn't react, and just walked past Asta coldly.

Ciel snickered. Yuno clearly meant that he didn't believe that Asta was not chosen by the Grimoire, but it sounded like he looked down on Asta.

Suddenly, Charles felt a chill on his back, which was a keen reaction to detecting malicious intent.

Narrowing his eyes, Ciel looked at the back of a tall and lanky man. Ciel was certain that it was that guy who was radiating malice towards him just now.
