NOVEL NEXT Chapter 88: Freak Teacher
After settling everything with Erica, he proceeded to go to the Magic Shop to get a few more spells.
He met the previous guy who took care of the shop, but he didn't seem to recognize him.
"Welcome. Do you need anything?" The guy simply asked with a calm face.
"Yes. I want to browse spell books."
"Which element?"
"Fire and Light. Need to study a bit for my disciple, you see. Also, I need 2-Star and 3-Star Spell Books for both," he replied with the answer he had come up with yesterday.
The guy nodded with a nonchalant expression. There was no reaction from him because Albert told him a bit of his disciple. He thought one of them should have a fire element while the other had a light element.
Hence, this kind of combination wasn't that bothersome. So, he simply agreed with him and picked the books, handing them to him.
After paying the fee for the book, he headed upstairs.
He took another look at the Bonk Bites he had received from his missions.
[Bonk Gauge: 1340 Bonk Bites]
'That's quite good. I haven't absorbed the Bonk Bites from the Horny Jail, but I can use them as the backup. In other words, I can spend all these Bonk Bites with me since I have the Bonk Bites from the jail to use my spells.'
He immediately browsed all four books.
When he checked a 3-Star Spell that required 500 Bonk Bites to learn, he was stunned for a moment. In the end, he chose to learn two 2-Star Spells and two 3-Star Spells, using 1300 Bonk Bites.
As for which spell he got, he learned a spell from each book.
For 2-Star Spells, he learned Firebolt and Blessing. For 3-Star Spells, he learned Fire Bomb and Holy Light.
After getting these two spells, he then bought around twenty glass bottles for the Magic Essence from the shop.
Since he couldn't bring too many by himself, he limited himself to twenty bottles since this was a test. He would purchase more later if Lilith actually agreed to this deal.
After getting everything he needed, Albert walked back to the Horny Jail and handed the bottles to the pixie queen before going back to his room.
There, he sat down and checked the skills he had learned earlier.
Skill: Bonkbolt - 13 Bonk Bites
Effect: Summon five Bonk Bats made of fire. It will set the target ablaze, especially effective when burning horniness.
Skill: Anti-Horny Blessing - 12 Bonk Bites
Effect: Increase physical ability for Bonkers by 10 percent or normal person by 5 percent. Unusable to those who are horny.
Skill: Bonk Bomb - 30 Bonk Bites
Effect: Summon a Magic Circle that releases a Bonk Bat. The Bonk Bat will fall down and explode upon impact.
Skill: Bonk Light - 28 Bonk Bites
Effect: A Holy Light of Purification. Basking the Horny Target in the holy light and dispel it. It will decrease the target's Magic Power exponentially, depending on the degree of their horniness.
"So, which one should I teach Yale?" Albert muttered in a low voice. He thought for a moment and decided.
"Yale. Come here."
As if he heard Albert's voice, he soon visited the room Albert stayed in and asked, "Master. Why did you call me here?"
"Let's step out of town for a bit. I want to show you something." Albert rose from his couch.
"Understood."
Yale was still confused about what he was planning to do, but it didn't stop him from following him.
As soon as they entered the forest, Albert said, "Actually, I want to teach you another spell."
He raised his hand and created a Magic Circle fifteen feet above the ground, bringing it to his chest level.
"Bonk Bomb."
Suddenly, a Bonk Bat came out of the Magic Circle and fell to the ground.
The moment it touched the ground, the Bonk Bat turned red and exploded.
Boom.
The flame flashed only for a second and the smoke rose for a few seconds, but the shock wave was so powerful that it pushed them backward for several feet because they weren't prepared for such a shock wave.
Yale dropped his jaw to the ground as he glanced at Albert, thinking, 'Impossible. Since when did he learn something like this?
'Even with the power of Bonk Bat that allows him to use any element, he shouldn't be able to learn something this fast.
'Did he learn this beforehand? No, if he had this in his repertoire, he would have used it when we fought the Satyr Leader. At the same time, he was weaker than me when we first met.
'In that case, there's only one possibility. Although I don't want to believe it, I think Teacher just learned this a while ago. He told me that he planned to visit the Magic Shop earlier.
'This is the only chance for him to learn something. However, it's only been a few hours since we were separated.
'Doesn't this mean he managed to learn a spell within a few hours? I'm afraid I have been underestimating Teacher this whole time. He's one hell of a genius. I don't even dare to call myself a genius before him. He's on a different level.
'But no matter what, he is my teacher. In fact, I'm proud that such a genius is my teacher because I can still grow stronger as long as I chase after my teacher.'
Admiration soon filled Yale's gaze as he felt he had just gotten the world's best genius as his teacher.
However, he didn't expect that the words that came out of Albert's mouth next would break him.
"Actually, there are three other spells that I would like you to use, but since you want an offensive spell, I want you to learn this first. This is a powerful one." Albert nodded with a serious expression while adding inwardly, 'Well, I haven't claimed the Bonk Bites from the Horny Jail, so I can only use this once since I'm out of Bonk Bites now.'
But the words that Yale heard were enough for him to freeze, staring at Albert as if he was a ghost.
"Why are you looking at me that way?" Albert's eyebrows twitched.
"A-ah. No." Yale snapped back into reality. He screamed inwardly, 'No, no. You're not a genius anymore. You're a freak. How can you even learn a few spells in just a few hours? And you even need to adjust the spell to your own need to create that Bonk Bat.
'And looking at the blast of the spell, I assume that spell was a 3-Star Spell. What should I say about this…
'No, No. I need to see this positively. With a teacher like him, he will be strong sooner or later and can protect his students well. At the same time, with the variety of his elements, he can teach all kinds of demons.
'In other words, he might become a godfather of the demons in the future without him knowing it. And such a person would be my teacher. I'm blessed.' Yale thought, trying to accept the situation with such a ridiculous explanation.
He never suspected Albert before because 2-Star Spell was still within his imagination before and Albert might have learned it before. But it was clear that his learning speed was far beyond his imagination because Albert just became powerful enough to wield 3-Star Spell yesterday.
So, the evidence was clear.
'Also, Teacher's growth is faster than mine since he has the original power. If we can fight more horny targets and more powerful targets, we can grow even faster. Before we even know it, we might have the power of an A Rank Adventurer.
'When that happens, Teacher's status will be recognized by the whole world, and I, his first student, will also be remembered as well.
'Also, this way, I don't think it will take too much time for Teacher to give me a 6-Star Spell for graduation.
'Hah, if anyone dares to reject my teacher because he's not strong enough to teach them, I'm going to beat their asses.' Yale thought as he politely bowed to Albert. "Please teach me, Teacher."
"Sure." Albert smiled and shared his experience with the spell, so Yale could replicate what he did. Although he would probably be able to use it only when the opponent was horny, it was still enough for him to understand how it worked.
After all, Yale's control over his light and dark element had grown. He believed sooner or later he would be able to use it without the need for horniness.
He was unaware that Albert's title also helped him in comprehending his power and allowed him to learn many things in such a short time.
Albert spent a few hours with Yale to see him training before he decided to return, leaving Yale alone.
He needed to make some preparations for the negotiation with Lilith. He also had received some insight in negotiation with Lilith from Yale, so he thought he was ready to talk face to face with Lilith.
First, he went to the pixie queen and asked, "How is it going?"
The queen brought Albert a glass bottle filled with golden-colored liquid. "This is the 2-Star Magic Essence. We have made sure that the quantity is similar to the one sold in the market."
"Oh. Thank you." Albert nodded with a smile. He took the bottle and asked, "Anyway, how long did it take for you to create this bottle?"
"Hmm…" The queen thought for a moment. "Because I'm better than anyone else, it only took me an hour to produce this much. But for the others, I'm afraid they need to take at least two to three hours.
"But don't worry. We will produce the same quality because the quality is not related to our skill but the energy. Our skill is simply how much we can excrete such energy."
"I see." Albert nodded in understanding. "Well, it's not like I'm going to fill the Horny Jail every month around since I don't have enough people to do it. So, if I'm hunting, don't do anything other than maintain the Horny Jail.
"Only when I get home and relax like this can you produce the Magic Essence. It's going to change if I get more people, but for now, I don't think it's possible."
"Understood. I will tell the other pixies about it."
"Good." Albert then waved his hand. "Anyway, I'm leaving first."
"Yes. Please be careful on the way."
Albert then walked downstairs while opening his system. Since this might be a dangerous conversation, he claimed all the Bonk Bites stored in every cell.
[Bonk Gauge: 340 Bonk Bites]
'Damn. There are so many Bonk Bites. If I get 100% of Bonk Bites with one bonk, the Horny Jail allows me to get around 150-250% of Bonk Bites depending on the degree of their horniness. This also includes EXP. So, if I can get more people to fill up the Horny Jail, it's going to make my progress far faster.
'I wonder if I should recruit the succubus to be a Bonk Officer. I mean, they have the perfect ability to make their enemy horny, allowing them to bonk them. Then again, they wouldn't be able to touch the Bonk Bat at all.
'So, I guess it's not possible. Wait a minute. Now that I think about it, I'm trying to negotiate with the succubus queen for a business deal. Doesn't this mean I have joined hands with her?
'Bonk joins hands with the source of the horniness? Bonk and Succubus? Why do I feel like this is a taboo business? But still, why was the succubus the only one who appreciated me the most?
'Bonk is supposed to be their nemesis… Now that I think about this, I feel like the entire situation is freaking crazy.' Albert started thinking so many absurd things about the relationship between Bonk and Succubus.
However, he didn't stop his way to the Brothel to meet Erica because this was his opportunity to grow faster than any other way.
