In the Goldenlotus family, the patriarch Zu-Han got a piece of news.
"Yes, Patriarch Zu, it seems like one of the Elders from Gentlewind family has been missing for quite some time now."
A person on his knee reported. He was one of the family scouts who also acted as a messenger for various reasons. But mostly he was tasked to contact their spies from other regions, especially from the other rival families.
When they heard his report, "What? Is that news a reliable one?" One of the elderly people, who were currently present inside the patriarch's chamber, asked in haste.
"The information itself came from our source inside the Gentlewind family, Elder Min." Replied the reporter to the elderly man named Min.
"Hmm…"
The patriarch and the others made thinking gestures. It was truly unbelievable. How could a member of such a family just go missing like that?
"Don't you think that elder just went on a vacation somewhere?" Another one of the elderly asked.
"That's impossible, Elder Beth. The Gentlewind family isn't the type of family who wastes time unproductively."
Elder Kim was the one who replied to Elder Beth's question.
"Besides, it came from our source, so no doubt that it was reliable information," Elder Kim added.
Patriarch Zu-Han, who remained silent this whole time, finally opened his mouth. "Speak, which of the elders is missing?" After a short pause, Patriarch Zu-Han threw a question.
"It was the Elder of Grenn family, Patriarch Zu." An immediate reply from the reporter.
In a brief moment, Patriarch Zu-Han widened his eyes but it only happened in an instant that no one was able to notice it.
"Elder Grenn, huh," he said.
"Oh, aren't he acquainted with you, Patriarch Zu?"
"Hmm, we did some dealings but none of us sees the other as acquaintances. Regardless, how long did he go missing?"
"A week or two, sorry, Patriarch Zu, our source wasn't able to get the details regarding the exact date of disappearance as the Gentlewind family was very cautious after that."
"I see," said Patriarch Zu-Han as he narrowed his eyes. "Do you have information regarding the plan of the main family towards the Grenn family?"
"Sorry, Patriarch Zu, As I said earlier, they are so cautious now, and our contact can barely make a move inside."
"I see. It truly is not good to act rashly if they become so cautious. So, for now, tell our contact to get as much information from that side, but don't act rashly. And be vigilant as there have been many unnatural things happening lately," said the Patriarch and dismissed the reporter.
"Yes, Sir!"
After his reply, the messenger's body sunk in shadow and vanished.
Looks like the Grenn family is in a bad situation now. He also heard that the young man of that family, Jura Grenn, was beaten to a pulp by that young man, who had a broken Seed. If it wasn't for Ru-Han he would never believe that young man was able to awaken his magical energy!
Based on Ru-Han's statement, the young man said that he awakened in the middle of a mission. His first impression upon hearing this was, 'nonsense!' But since it came out directly from Ru-Han's mouth, he had to believe.
A wrinkle appeared on Patriarch Zu-Han's forehead as he mulled about the other possibilities regarding the sudden awakening of that kid, who they believed had a broken Seed.
Wait, there was also a high possibility that the kid was lying all this time. After all, it was truly impossible to beat someone when you were only newly awakened. Besides, Jura was from a great noble family. So he had quite a talent even if he was neglectful of his training.
Either the kid has healed a long time ago or his Seed wasn't broken from the start. The Patriarch could not tell which one was right or wrong. Or maybe all is wrong. He wanted to satisfy this curiosity of him somehow.
Hmm… Patriarch Zu-Han pondered again, then a glint was briefly flashed in his eyes. Regardless, if he wanted to answer their question they needed to get that kid.
When the other elders left the chamber and only the Patriarch was left alone, he summoned his son, Ru-Han, to talk about something.
…
Eman was lying on the balcony once again. Lying beside him was the sleeping sister of him.
Currently, he's checking his market interface. He saw a list of newly added skill scrolls in it.
"It is true that the more you buy the more available sales will come out," he mumbled.
No need to get amazed by it, the system was just too unexpected. Sometimes it comes out with random sales and sometimes with a reasonable one. So instead of getting amazed by it, he decided to accept what was in there.
Right. Yesterday after successfully taming the Boar. He accomplished another secret achievement and got another skill slot as a reward.
It was the reason why he was browsing his interface at the moment. He needed to buy a skill scroll with regards to magical elements. Being in another world but couldn't use elemental magic, was just a big failure.
Magical elements make a transmigrated person in another world to become a true transmigrated person! Well, it was what he believed in.
Regardless, based on the system, although it wasn't impossible to learn magical elements, he was more compatible with abilities regarding , , and . Maybe because the root of his power came from the Soul and not nature.
So for him to master the elemental magic, he needed to master the .
In the skill scroll section, the scroll with the name of was in faded color. It also meant that it was currently locked. In the details beside it, it was stated that he needed to raise the total of Soul Energy to 1000 in order to purchase the scroll.
Regardless of it, he could purchase directly the elemental magic that he wanted. But the proficiency level that he could achieve from using it was only at 50 percent. So he could never reach 100 percent unless he acquired the ability.
"Uhhh, 50 percent, although it was just half of the real power, it was still fine I guess."
"Oh wait, an advanced level of ! Wait, wait, wait… on the second look, it was in faded color as well. So it's locked huh. And it was stated in the details that I needed to raise my mastery level in the beginner tier ability to 100 percent."
He then swiped the market section away and opened another panel. He dragged the status section to the front. Then he scrolled to the bottom to where the beginner skill was.
He checked the details and saw a narrow bar in gray color. Almost 30 percent of it was filled with a bluish color. Then on top of the bar, the word Mastery was displayed.
"I see, so I'm still far, no."
He then closed the other panel and only the Market remained floating in the air.
"Now then, which of the elements are worth buying? Because of the scarcity in my Soul Points, I can only buy 1 skill scroll of elemental magic as of now. Honestly, I need to save as many Soul Points as possible. But here I am getting tempted like a kid by elemental magic, haha."
"Let's see… fire huh, it is convenient when you go camping and it is also a good partner to light up dark places. In an offensive attack, fire is one of the best I think. It is destructive and explosive as well.
Next is water huh, I wonder if it was drinkable. Uh, what else is good with water? To wash my clothes?
As expected, although I played online games, I'm not a pro-gamer. Just a 'rando' who likes chilling with friends inside the game, whom I never meet in real life.
Well, isn't water a balance element? Depending on what kind of spell I learned from it, it can be a good offensive element or defensive.
The wind… I wonder if I can fly like in the anime and manga. Those with wind elements usually can fly. Wind cutter or Wind Blades… I wonder if I will be able to learn those.
And wood, isn't it a good element for Druid class?
The earth must be… wait it would be better if I can summon a Grock or golems with it. I think Druid in this category as well. Or maybe not.
Wood must be good for binding also, and earth for defensive ability, right?
Hmm… no lightning, light, and shadow huh. Even dark elements are not here as well. Must be in the special element category.
"Now then, which of these elements is worth getting first? It never comes to my mind that it's this difficult to choose one among the many on the list. If only I can choose them all, but unfortunately, it's impossible at the moment. So, right now, I have to make trouble with myself."
"Hmm… which is more helpful and fun to use among these elements?"
Eman made a long thinking gesture as he was staring at the floating panel in front of him.
A couple of minutes later,
"This!"
Using his index finger, he tapped on the purchase button.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
