Bab 89: Title of Nobility II

"I'm a dying old man, so I don't need any more spells."

The black-robed old man replied and shook his head slightly. Merlin's face immediately fell into a great disappointment. Then, the black-robed old man smiled and steered the conversation around. "I'm a dying man. Even if it's not soon, there's no hope for me in this life to move on any further so I'll not be needing any more Spell Models. Wizard Merlin, there's no need for an exchange as I can gift you Earth Guard as a present."

Merlin was shocked. He looked at the few pieces of white paper handed by the black-robed old man. Those were the sketches of the black-robed old man's Earth Guard. This was a rather common Defensive spell among Earth-type spells and it was also the same one as Merilung's.

Perhaps Merilung learned his spells from the Abyss Fort so the strength and stability of his spells way exceeded the black-robed old man's.
