The Supreme Mage was very helpless at Salomon's unsatisfactory performance. When faced with Athena's request, the Supreme Master could only reluctantly agree.
His Holiness also felt that young people should learn more while they are young, no matter what aspect, as long as Salomon’s magic courses are not left behind.
The Ancient Master also had to admit that in the Kama Taj headquarters in the Himalayas, almost no one had much elegant artistic taste. At least compared to Athena, everyone else pales in comparison, even if they have lived for more than a thousand years. The same is true for Mr. Nian.
Except for the collections from all over the world accumulated over the years, there is almost nothing in this department that can express the long historical and cultural connotation of Kama Taj.
Even if the bowl Salomon eats from is a tea pot from the Tang Dynasty, it cannot change the fact that Kama Taj has extremely poor aesthetics from top to bottom.
Kama Taj pays attention to cleanliness, its clothes are simple dark linen and cotton, and even the meals in the cafeteria are pure cabbage. Do you really think that His Holiness doesn’t know why so many people go to the Hong Kong Temple to join in the fun whenever it’s time to eat?
And the gifts Athena gave were also very sincere. Pegasus and Aegis, any one of them can last a lifetime.
Now that all those things have been given to Salomon, it shows that Athena is very concerned about Salomon, which also makes the ancient mage a little relieved. At least she is not worried that Athena will teach Salomon a wrong way.
But for Salomon, learning how to fight with a shield and a spear was not at all interesting to him.
In his opinion, the greatest role of Aegis is to defend against attacks that cannot be resisted by the Seraphim Shield and the Ring of Raggador. He does not need to throw the shield like Captain America. After the modifications of His Holiness, The spell of the Ring of Raggador has become a magic that can be used both offensively and defensively, and using a shield is unnecessary.
And Salomon had great concerns about Pegasus' safety. If he were to sit on Pegasus's back, he would always prepare a feather falling spell to prevent accidents.
Athena's appearance was naturally extremely beautiful, but it was a bit difficult for Salomon.
This is not to say that he has any special thoughts about Athena, it is just because these ancient Greek goddesses seem to pay little attention to privacy, and there is almost no difference between men and women. And because of Salomon's physical development, he often has to use the "Mechanized Mind" spell on himself to calm down and listen to the lectures.
Every month, he takes time to go to Mount Athena in New York to study sculpture and art appreciation, perform tricks for the children in the orphanage run by Athena, and also study secular students such as mathematics, biology, chemistry and physics there. A must-learn course.
His Holiness was also very satisfied that Salomon could find a teacher to teach science.
Coupled with the minor language linguistics, alchemy and potion science assigned by the Supreme Mage, and having to get up early every morning to practice self-protection and practice the endless white magic in the Book of Emperor Weishan, Salomon felt that he had been in the college entrance examination before. It has never been that busy.
He also believes that he may have more knowledge than the seventh-year students preparing for NEWT at Hogwarts - if there is a Hogwarts in this world.
With such a large course, if he hadn't been able to use Scholar's Touch to read a book instantly, he might have been too busy to eat.
Now Salomon has realized the hard work of those archmages studying when they were apprentices.
Salomon now has two sets of spell-casting systems. One is naturally the spell-casting system of the Weishan Emperor series, and the other is the Toril Crystal Wall-type spell-casting system driven by the magic power of the Weishan Emperor. Two sets of spell-casting systems. They complement each other and allow Salomon to make rapid progress in the low-level mage stage.
Sometimes when he saw the three rings on his right hand, he would feel a little incredible. Logically speaking, Emperor Weishan would not easily forgive a caster like him who stole magic power, but the trinity Emperor Weishan let him go. ——Salomon can only guess that this is the reason for the liberation of the stigmata, and the stigmata has some unclear relationship with the Kabbalah Tree of Life he saw in his dream. The secrets in it can only be discovered by himself. Discovered.
For this reason, he dug out the modern Golden Dawn's research on the Kabbalah Tree of Life in the library, trying to find some basis, which made Salomon's burden even heavier.
If it weren't for his youth, he would be worried about his hairline. Fortunately, His Holiness also understood the need to balance work and rest, and would give Salomon one day off every week. As long as it was that day, Salomon not only did not have to face the dark dimension, nor did he need to practice alchemy and potion. , he can lie in bed and sleep all day without anyone disturbing him.
Salomon's efforts were naturally noticed by other people in Kama Taj, so when Salomon took out the dimensional bag he made, no one was surprised - although this magic has It's different, but it's not black magic. It's just that no one wants to learn this kind of magic that can't enhance combat effectiveness. If you want to get something, just put on the hanging ring and use the portal.
The Supreme Mage was very satisfied with Salomon's results, not only because Salomon embroidered exquisite patterns on this leather satchel, but also because Salomon did not focus on those who could cause damage or defend himself. Magic, he was interested in magic as a whole, not in fighting with magic.
These are two different attitudes. For the magician of Kama Taj, there is no need to learn too much magic that cannot be used in battle. Learning one or two is enough. Salomon's His attitude is - no matter whether it is good or bad, useful or useless, he must learn it, as long as it is interesting enough.
Learning magic with these two completely different attitudes will naturally lead to different achievements.
In Salomon's opinion, the mage should be an all-purpose character that can deal with all situations, and can use magic to deal with it at any time, rather than becoming a battlefield fort - that is what warlocks and telepaths should do. It has nothing to do with mages.
If you want to gain a place on the battlefield, modern technology can do it, so why bother learning magic?
In the winter of 2007, Salomon spent hard studying until the Spring Festival came. This day does not have any special meaning to non-Chinese people, and Kamal Taj headquarters will not choose to celebrate it, but His Holiness will still give the Hong Kong Temple a holiday so that everyone can celebrate the festival.
Salomon also got an extra day off on Saturday. Master Xiao Wang came to him specifically on that day and said he would take him to visit Chinatown in New York.
The king lowered his voice and said quietly to Salomon: "It is not good to keep studying magic. You are too young, and the task given to you by the Lord is too heavy. You should get more contact with secular society. I am not You are talking bad about His Holiness! I just don’t want you to become a nerd.”
After experiencing the mission in Salem Town, Master Xiao Wang successfully signed the contract with Emperor Weishan. Now Master Wang has become arrogant, and no one will say that he can no longer be a mage.
After signing the contract, his magical attainments improved by leaps and bounds, and he has now become a low-level deacon in the Hong Kong Temple. One of the important reasons why he came to Salomon this time is that he wanted Salomon to see that he is now How powerful it has become.
Salomon smiled and threw a satchel to Wang, which was a gift he had prepared for Master Xiao Wang. He had prepared several dimensional bags before. Except for one each for the Venerable, Modu, and himself, he gave away all the others. The remaining one was specially given to Master Xiao Wang. As Salomon, he Adventure partners are naturally eligible to receive gifts.
Master Xiao Wang is also very satisfied with this gift - now that he has a surplus of living expenses, he can naturally buy some snacks and put them in. This dimensional bag allows him to get food anytime and anywhere.
"Let's go," Salomon said, "I still need you to lead the way. I can't wait to eat Sichuan food."
