Chapter 44 Master’s Work
These words of the old housekeeper successfully added elements of love and death to this family ethics drama.
However, the old man himself is also a collection of contradictions.
On the one hand, he couldn't bear what happened to the young lady; on the other hand, he understood the consequences of disobeying the family master's orders better than anyone else.
"So, you thought of a compromise."
Ethan leaned against the wall with his hands folded across his chest, "You know that the magisters of Hearth Bay will not accept such a whimsical commission, so by bringing her here, you can comfort yourself that you did your best."
< br>
This is human nature, and he does not intend to blame the other party. However, it seems that this deal is destined to fail. Although he needs an invitation letter from the town, Laosen Magic Scroll is in its infancy, and it is to build a reputation. time, once he fulfills this commission, the butler may end up not so good.
"I understand." He nodded, "Then, it's time for me to find the next customer."
"Wait!"
The old butler stopped Ethan with a cold voice. He stared at Ethan's face hidden under the ball mask, as if he wanted to see through him, "You looked very confident just now. You can do it." Just a few magic scrolls? Although I don’t know who you studied the elemental shaping spell, but you are facing the great magician of the Astrology Society!”
Ethan punctured his mind.
He watched the eldest lady grow up and took care of her as his own granddaughter. Naturally, he couldn't resist the eldest lady's plea. However, he also knew that no one could help the eldest lady now. There was no such person in the imperial capital, and the same was true in Hearth Bay. No.
Until Ethan boasted in front of them just now.
Are you willing to wait until something is done before accepting payment?
This is a promise that only an extremely confident person would make, but he doesn't yet know where the other person's confidence comes from.
He kept a straight face and deliberately made his tone sound vicious, "You should know the consequences of deceiving the nobles. If you let the eldest lady down, I will find you even if it costs me my life."
"You should know what it means when this thing is done, right?"
Ethan was a little surprised, and he needed to be reminded of the consequences of this matter.
"I have my own way. If you are worried about the remuneration afterwards, even if I can't come in person, I will ask someone to give it to you...Tell me, how much do you want?"
"I want an invitation to the town."
The old butler's eyes were full of meaning, and this answer was enough to explain a lot of things.
This elemental shaper who appeared out of nowhere is not a nobleman, and he is obviously not a graduate of the "Academy". Otherwise, if he had performed well enough in school, many families would have offered him an olive branch.
He still couldn't figure out where Ethan learned his skills from, and even when he heard the name of the Great Magister of the Astrology Society, he didn't hesitate at all.
"Can you do my thing?"
Ethan's inquiry brought the old butler back to reality. He thought for a moment and said, "This is not a difficult task."
"In that case, let's start drawing."
"Now? Right here?"
The old butler was shocked again. In his imagination, even if the other party could come up with a magic scroll that could compete with the Grand Magister, it would still take a long time to draw and produce. He was trying to emphasize that they only had one day, and this one The elite division will set off for the empire's border tomorrow evening.
"It can't work here. I have to go to the energy-storage parchment shop to buy basic materials first."
Ethan calculated with his fingers, "You should need 12 magic scrolls, 9 of which are used to battle wits with the 'evil magician', and the other 3 are just as parting gifts."
The old butler mentioned that this is an expedition with no return. Perhaps these three bonus fireball scrolls can bring a little change to the fate of the customer's sweetheart.
"I want to visit your workshop?"
"Of course."
……
Heisenberg is a powerful elemental shaper.
Along the way, the old butler kept hypnotizing himself in his mind, and he had already made the realization after negotiating this commission. But...
Heisenberg went into an ordinary energy-storage parchment store and bought 12 copies of the cheapest energy-storage parchment in front of him.
However, this should not be a problem. The more powerful the transcendent is, the more he returns to his original nature in controlling magic power.
He once visited the most famous magic scroll factory in the imperial capital, where the best painters on the continent gathered together. The real masters were all invisible.
The old housekeeper once again found a reason for this man's suspicious behavior.
However, when Ethan bought the scroll and got off the boat directly, he found an open space on the beach and sat on the ground. He was still a little nervous, "Are we... just drawing here?"
Those real masters have their own drawing workshops, which are filled with various precision drawing tools.
There are precise measuring instruments in the workshop, which are used to observe the flow of magic power and guide them to form patterns on energy-storing parchment. True master-level drawing is an extremely precise craft that requires unparalleled control over magic power. Any small mistake will reduce the quality of the magic scroll.
However, Ethan just sat on the beach, sketching facing the sea like a painter.
Such a magic scroll painter would definitely be kicked out of the factory by his master during his apprenticeship.

Maybe...
Heisenberg mastered some unknown painting skills. After all, his magic is related to the elements. Facing the sea allows him to communicate with nature more closely.
The old housekeeper racked his brains to find some compensation for Ethan, but it was not easy.
Especially since it only took about ten minutes to make 12 scrolls in total.
No painter in the world would treat his work so carelessly!
The string of reason in the butler's mind roared. From the moment this man bought the low-level energy-storing parchment, there was nothing about him that looked like a professional.
But...
but!
The man calls himself Heisenberg, and at least the name sounds professional.
The housekeeper really couldn't think of a reason to make amends, so he could only talk nonsense in his mind. Under his gaze, Ethan had already begun to guide the young lady step by step on how to use these 12 scrolls.
"It's very simple. If the 'evil magician' chases you, activate three ice arrow scrolls at the same time. In addition, these three are fire... element shaping scrolls. After you see your sweetheart, put these three Give him a copy of the scroll and tell him to use three copies together when he encounters danger in the future.”
The little girl listened very carefully, and her eyes finally glowed again.
It is indeed very simple, even the eldest lady who has never been exposed to elemental magic can easily understand it.
It's just a little too simple. The old housekeeper has never heard of anyone introducing a magic scroll like this.
First of all, any magic scroll corresponds to the name of a certain spell. The more advanced the magic, the more difficult it is to draw, and the price will rise accordingly.
The buyer needs to know the name of the spell and activate the magic scroll as needed.
This is the correct tutorial on how to use the magic scroll!
The old butler resisted and waited until Ethan finished the introduction before asking, "Did you just forget to introduce the corresponding spells of these magic scrolls?"
If you want to compete with the great mage of the Astrology Society, you need at least a high-level spell of level 4 or above to have a slim hope.
"Technically, these are Ice Bolt and Fireball."
"...What?"
"These 9 copies are ice arrows, and these 3 copies are fireball spells."
