Greatest Legacy of the Magus Universe-Chapter 493: Resonance

Adam's students exited the town through the south gate and walked toward the grove in the near distance. He had taught them a new technique, so the kids were eager to practice it.

Aiden looked at his friends and spoke with slight hesitation, "Guys, don't you find it weird that Professor has been so engrossed in his herbalism experiments since the day before..." "Yes..." Eleiney nodded. "I don't know why but he seems to be in a hurry. He's been acting very different ever since he returned. I wonder what it could be..."

Art remained silent for a while before chiming in, "And what did he mean about the next night of the full moons being the most dangerous?"

"No idea."

"I don't know."

Eleiney and Aiden shook their heads, unable to understand why Adam had made such a comment. Regardless, they trusted their mentor's words.

Art exhaled a deep breath, producing mist from his mouth in this chilly weather. "Whatever it is, let's just focus on this new thing he taught us."

"Right!" Aiden nodded with a solemn expression. "If it is as he says, and the next night of the full moons really is going to be the most intense, then this technique is going to help us a lot!"

"Speaking of this technique," Art began, his eyes flashing with hints of excitement. "I'd never thought mana could be used in such a way. It's so... creative!"

"Hmph!" Suddenly a cold snort sounded. "What did you expect? My brother is a genius!"

Valerian was cozily sitting on Art's head, treating it as his couch.

"Lord Valerian," Eleiney looked over at him and asked politely, "Did Professor create this technique himself?"

The young dragon raised his paw and shook his index finger. Then, he started speaking with the air of a grandmaster.

"Foolish girl, this technique that Adam has imparted to you is merely an application of the real technique that he had created when he was young."

"What?!" Everyone was stunned.

Art was so shocked that he nearly dropped the little guy from his head.

"Myu! Art, keep your heady steady or I will smack you!" Valerian threatened menacingly.

"S-Sorry, Lord Valerian..." Art apologised meekly.

"The technique he taught us just now is already so amazing, yet it is only a mere application?" Eleiney was genuinely astonished. "Then how great is the real technique?"

"Huhu," Valerian chuckled smugly, his eyes twinkling with immense pride. "The real technique boosts all of his senses and allows him to perceive the most minute details within a sphere around him. He calls this technique the Sphere of Resonance!"

"Sphere of Resonance..." Aiden repeated the words in a daze. "How old was Professor when he created this technique?"

"I don't know." Valerian shook his head. "I wasn't even born back then, so he probably must have been 15 or 16 years old."

The three kids simultaneously gasped in disbelief. They were shocked about two things. First, Adam was about their age when he created his first technique. This was something that greatly shocked them down to their cores.

They couldn't help but admire their mentor even more after learning this.

Second, they learned that Valerian was merely half their age, yet he acted like an elder to them.

They couldn't help but feel that the young dragon was bullying them!

But they didn't dare voice out their opinions because Valerian was stronger than them. "To be able to create a technique at such a young age, Professor must have been a very talented student back in the Southern Federation!" Aiden spoke with sparkling eyes.

"His talent in spell-casting was mediocre." Valerian started to gracefully lick his paw. "Unlike you three, Brother only had a B-grade talent."

"What?!" The kids were thunderstruck.

Eleiney couldn't help but ask, "Then how come he was able to become a Mana Liquefaction Magus at the mere age of twenty?! Even Magi with A-grade talent would require at least seven years to do so... Yet, he did it in only five!"

Valerian knew that when Adam had established the familiar bond with him, Adam had received two boons from him.

First was the Spirit World Traversal technique, and the second was the significant increase in his mana reserves which technically elevated his talent to an A-grade.

Of course, the young dragon would never divulge this secret.

He put on a mysterious demeanor and started to stroke his furry chin, just like Adam would

do.

"My brother is very creative in the usage of mana, but that's not what helped him advance to Rank 2 in such little time."

"Then what was it?" Art asked eagerly.

"It was his deep understanding of magic, not its analytical side but its spiritual side," said the young dragon.

Aiden exclaimed, "You mean the philosophy of the Way that he just started teaching us?!"

"Yes." Valerian nodded. "Although I don't know what exactly it is, I know that it has had a profound effect on my brother's journey as a Magus. Even his mentor back in the Southern Federation put a lot of emphasis on studying this philosophy."

"Mentor has a mentor?" Art asked in surprise. "He never told us that!"

"Of course, Brother has a mentor!" Valerian spoke with pride, "and he's a very powerful

Magus."

"How strong is he?" Aiden asked curiously.

"Hahaha, he is in the process of advancing to the Mana Core Rank!" Valerian laughed

arrogantly.

Once again, the three young Magi were dumbfounded. They didn't know that their mentor had such a powerful background.

All this while they thought that since Adam was from the Southern Federation, his background wouldn't be so deep. But it turned out that that wasn't the case at all. "Anyway, enough chatting." Valerian leaped off Art's head and landed on the ground.

He glanced at the three youths and said with a serious expression, "The night of the full moons is three weeks from now. You all must master this technique within the next week." Eleiney, Aiden, and Art nodded their heads with solemn looks on their faces.

"Lord Valerian, please guide us," they said simultaneously.

The young dragon's tail couldn't help but sway a little faster when the kids addressed him as

'Lord.'

He raised his furry chin and spoke magnanimously, "Alright, Brother has already told me to train you while he's busy with, uh, whatever he's up to.

Valerian then turned around and strutted toward the grove, leaving behind his parting words.

"You three have until sunset to find me with that technique. If you don't, I will smack you!"

He suddenly stopped in his steps, turned back around, and glared at them with his piercing

topaz eyes.

"For every day you fail to find me, the intensity of the beating will increase, and I won't stop until all of you have found me!"
