《Breeding Dragons From Today》Chapter 14: Level-Two Magic
Advertisement
"This is a notebook that I have used before. It contains the casting methods of all basic spells from level-one to level-three."
As she spoke, she handed a thick notebook to Joelson.
Opening the magic notebook, beautiful words were written all over it.
The basic spells of each element were recorded in detail, especially water magic. Beside them, there were many very detailed insights and experiences.
It seemed that Elsa was a water magic shooter.
Joelson sighed in his heart. This was a magic notebook.
Compared to this, the notebook that Beard gave him was nothing.
Joelson directly flipped to the pages of fire magic.
Level-1 fire magic, illumination.
There were not many level-1 spells. Illumination was a very practical auxiliary magic, suitable for use in dark environments.
After reading through the casting method, Joelson had memorized all the principles of the spell.
He snapped his fingers.
His right hand suddenly burst out with a dazzling light.
Elsa's eyelids twitched, and she was very shocked.
Did he learn it with just a glance?
Although illumination was simple, the learning speed was a bit too exaggerated.
"The illumination is quite strong. It can be used as a flash bomb," Joelson said to himself in a low voice
Flash bomb?!
What was that?
Elsa was stunned.
Joelson had already flipped to the location where the second-level spell was recorded.
Second-level fire-type spell, explosive fireball.
Second-level fire-type spell, ring of fire.
There were many types of spells that could be learned in second-level spells, and the power was also much greater than first-level spells.
For example, the exploding fireball was an advanced spell of the fireball spell. After it was cast, one could use one's mental strength to control the explosion of the fireball, creating a splash effect in the surroundings, increasing the destructive range of the fireball spell.

Joelson immediately began to study it.
He extended his fair and slender right hand.
He did not have his own magic staff yet, so he could only use his hand to replace it.
There seemed to be no movement.
"Joelson."
Elsa could not help but say, "The difficulty of casting a second-level spell has increased a lot. It is normal to fail a few times. Do not be disappointed. You are very talented, but the difficulty of this spell is not low. When I first tried it, I also failed."
Elsa did not finish her words of encouragement.
A ball of fire jumped out of Joelson's hand. In the blink of an eye, the fireball grew to the size of a human head like a balloon.
It was darker than the fireball cast by the fireball spell. The flame was also more active, containing a hint of brutality.
He succeeded.
Elsa blinked and froze on the spot. She was a little dumbfounded.
Joelson raised his head and asked in puzzlement, "Elsa, what did you say? How many times did you fail?"
"Well, ah, when I first learned level-2 magic, I also failed more than ten times before I succeeded. You succeeded in one time. You're really outstanding!"
"Oh."
Joelson lowered his head again, but he did not see Elsa's blushing face.
Elsa had lied just now.
When she first learned level-2 magic, she failed more than three hundred times. It took her three days to barely succeed.
Even so, her teacher was pleased to praise her as a water magic genius, but she was too embarrassed to say it in front of such a genius student.
Elsa had always been proud of this.
But now compared to Joelson, she felt that she was as stupid as a donkey.
Joelson only tried once and he succeeded!

Although he had the foundation to learn fireball.
But at such a fast learning speed, Joelson's earth-fire magic talent is too terrifying.
Elsa found that Joelson began to try ring of fire.
Ring of fire is an area-of-effect magic, a ring of fire around the body, pushed out in all directions.
It can kill the surrounding creatures.
The difficulty of casting the spell was one level higher than that of exploding fireballs.
Elsa originally wanted to tell Joelson to take his time.
But she opened her mouth and closed it again.
Forget it, let's not talk about it. Later, she would be shocked by this genius again.
"Whoosh!"
A ring of fire appeared around Joelson's body. It swayed slightly, like a gorgeous fire belt.
As expected.
Elsa sighed weakly.
Was a level-two spell really that easy? The level-two spell I learned was fake, right!
Suddenly, another ring of fire appeared.
Elsa widened her eyes and blinked hard.
How was this possible?!
A second ring of fire appeared around him!
Multiple rings of fire were already within the scope of a level-three spell!
A level-three spell was derived from a level-two spell!
Was he still a human?!
Elsa had to admit that she was really frightened by his talent.
The third ring of fire was slowly condensing, and it suddenly broke halfway.
Joelson waved his hand and dispersed the condensed fire elements. He said regretfully, "No, summoning three rings of fire is still too difficult with my current spiritual power."
It seemed that Joelson was still very dissatisfied.
Elsa simply didn't know what to say.
Joelson Edward! You're still not satisfied with this? You're making others die!
It's already genius enough to cast a level-3 spell with a level-2 strength, okay?
Still not satisfied? What else do you want?
Only now did Elsa finally understand the true meaning of the words "super talent".
"Joelson!"
Elsa quickly stopped Joelson from wanting to study the next level-2 spell.
She had been dealt a blow enough.
She felt that if she stayed with Joelson for a while longer, her confidence in the path of a magician would be completely destroyed.
"Don't you want to learn about magic potions? Come with me. You can slowly study this notebook when you go back."
Joelson was stunned for a moment and nodded.
"Okay."
It was just that magic was so attractive. He was so engrossed in reading that he almost forgot the real purpose of looking for Elsa.
The most important thing was to learn how to make spirit potions as soon as possible.
"Encyclopedia of Magic Materials, Introduction to a Hundred Kinds of Magic Potions, Basic Knowledge of Potions..."
Elsa took out a few more books and handed them to Joelson.
"Take these books back and read them first. Ask me if you have any questions."
Joelson nodded and agreed.
He casually flipped through them.
Joelson could not help but ask, "Teacher Elsa, don't you have the method to make intermediate potions?"
Elsa looked a little confused, but she quickly figured it out.
Joelson's strength was about to break through to Tier-3. The basic potions did not really help him much, so it was not a problem for him to understand the intermediate potions in advance.
"I don't have it here. You can go to the academy library to look for it."
Elsa replied.
"Yes, thank you, Teacher Elsa."
Joelson expressed his gratitude to Elsa and left.
He needed to go to the library as soon as possible.
Elsa looked at Joelson's back as he left, her pretty face filled with a complicated expression.
"What a monster!"
