At twelve o'clock noon, a blue family sedan was driving on a suburban road.
The farther away from Lundang, the worse the road becomes, but overall, it is much better than Wayne expected, mainly because the air is fresher, hundreds of times better than in the city of Lundang.
It would be even better if it wasn't winter.
The car was purchased in the used car market. Wayne was commissioned by Dr. Reiner to investigate used cars. He found many black spots in this car dealership. After some intimidation and inducement, the other party readily recommended this 80% new black car for the Queen's sake.
The boss didn't tell him where the car came from, and Wayne didn't ask. He knew that Veronica would look down on civilian cars and thought they were destined to be disposable items. So, in line with the principle of speed, it only took him half an hour to complete the purchase of the car.
No one knew whose name the vehicle was registered under, so Wayne didn't have to take any risks. The boss assured him that everything was legal.
Compared with the civilian cars Wayne had seen in his 'previous life', the configuration of this four-seater blue sedan was very simple. It was so simple that there was only a dashboard on the operating table and not even a radio.
The body of the car is partially made of wood, the rear of the car has a double-door design, and the trunk is very spacious and can hold a lot of things.
Although it is simple, it is indeed 80% new. The headlights are very bright, the engine runs normally, the gearbox is very reliable, and there is no peculiar smell in the car. Water will come out after starting it and adding gas for a while.
Wayne drove the car out of the dealership and purchased a batch of supplies according to Veronica's requirements. In addition, he also prepared two barrels of gasoline, two boxes of drinking water, and varying numbers of canned foods, chocolates, and compressed biscuits.
Veronica meant to go and come back quickly, catch Bloody Mike and lift the curse and leave. They would not stay in the town of Kafno for too long. If everything went well, they could return to Lundan that night.
What she said made sense, so Wayne purchased a large amount of supplies. It always helps to be safe.
The person in charge of driving was Veronica. The female driver had gotten rid of the worries of poverty at a young age, so she was very skilled in driving.
In comparison, William in the passenger seat had driving skills that were indescribable. He had a driver's license, and the university had a strict rule that one could not graduate without a license. He went through wind and rain for two years to get one.
In the back seat are Wayne and the black cat Monica. Originally, Veronica asked Wayne to drive, but because teacher Monica had to give a class, the eldest lady became the full-time driver for this trip.
"Don't be anxious. The seeds of magic power cannot be created overnight. They are more like a guide and inheritance. Unless you are a genius..."
Seeing that Wayne was a little anxious for success, Monica began to enlighten him and explained in detail the foundation of all supernatural powers - magic.
Magic is the lever that pry open the extraordinary. Without magic, nothing can be achieved.
For ordinary people who want to gain magical powers and become an entry-level magician or magic apprentice, a relatively gentle way is meditation.
If you have connections, you can ask a mentor to lead the way. For example, the magic seeds that Monica planted for Wayne is one way of guidance.
The radical way is to take the path of believing in the supernatural, pleasing the gods and gaining powerful magic.
The former progresses slowly, and many people get stuck at this stage and waste a lot of time. Although the latter progresses extremely quickly, it is far less peaceful and safe than the former.
After all, in the minds of believers, other gods are heretics, evil, and hypocritical, and only the gods they believe in are eternally great and glorious.
After being processed and passed on by word of mouth by believers, ninety-nine percent of the gods are fictitious. Ordinary people are completely in the dark, and choosing a belief is like opening a blind box.
If you are lucky, you can join a decent society and take it as your mission to uphold justice and fight against evil. You are definitely a positive character.
If you are unlucky, you will worship an evil god who enjoys torturing his believers. You will have to meet sacrifice targets every year and every month. Not only will you suffer, but you will also become a minion of the evil god who is hated by everyone.
We have strayed off topic, let’s get back to the magic seed at the beginning.
Black cat Monica shared her magic power with Wayne, using water to attract water and magic to awaken magic power, allowing Wayne to skip the arduous initial stage of meditation.
If Wayne wants to strengthen his magic power in the future, he will still need to meditate persistently, but from 0 to 1 is the most difficult. Skipping this stage can save a lot of time and energy.
The chance of success is 50-50. Everyone has the potential to become a magician, but not every attempt to draw water with water will be successful.
"So, if you fail this time, don't be discouraged. You will succeed if you try a few more times."
Logically speaking, there is no need for Monica to guide Wayne to become a magician. If the trip goes smoothly, the curse on Wayne can be completely lifted. She only needs to replenish Wayne's magic in a short period of time to keep his soul from starvation.
The reason why so much energy was spent on planting seeds and holding lectures was purely because of Wayne.
As a believer of the Moonlight Goddess, Monica is hostile to the Goddess of Death and the Goddess of Darkness. Intercepting Wayne, who is targeted by the Death Walker, can not only thwart the opponent's plan, but also add a living force to her own side.
Win twice, it’s a win-win!
I have to say here that Monica believes in the Moonlight Goddess, but Veronica and William do not. The former is a believer in the Goddess of Nature, while the latter devotes his faith to the Sun Goddess.
Nature, sun, moonlight VS death, darkness, the battle between the five goddesses can be traced back thousands of years.
Wayne kept his eyes closed and remained silent throughout the whole process, listening to the lectures of Teacher Black Cat and exploring the existence of his own magic according to the little tricks taught by the other party.
The all-night stay was not in vain, he soon found his own magic. As a beginner, he could not describe magic with professional terms in the field of magic. In his understanding, magic was the product of the close connection between essence, energy and spirit, and...
God, dominates.
God refers to the heart, thinking and mental strength. Only this kind of crystallization of wisdom born in the flesh, between matter and energy, can mobilize magic power and thus pry open the world bound by rules.
Wayne sensed a lot and saw his own magic clearly. It was pure white, but different from Monica's magic seed. The two colors of white were very different.
One is the rendered white, and the other is the original white.
The moment the magic power in Wayne's body was tapped out, the magic seeds left by Monica were shattered on the spot. This scene attracted the attention of Veronica and William, and also made Monica dumbfounded.

It didn't have high hopes. It just wanted Wayne to get familiar with the magic seeds the first time. There would be plenty of opportunities after the curse was resolved. It never expected...
For a moment, Monica was overwhelmed with thoughts. She thought a lot and was glad that she was lucky. An impromptu interception not only destroyed the plan to recruit death believers, but also brought a believer with unlimited potential to her goddess.
If possible, Wayne might become the one favored by God!
In the passenger seat, William swallowed his saliva and stuffed a mouthful of chocolate to calm himself.
Veronica, who was driving, was not in a better situation. She was distracted and didn't pay attention. The car veered off the road and the tire ran over a big pothole.
With a bang, Monica in the back seat flew into the air.
In mid-air, the black cat was still confused.
So fast, is he really a genius?
"Ah, Veronica, look at the road, look at the road!"
Amid William's scream, Wayne raised his hand to catch Monica who was falling, stroked the cat twice while she wasn't paying attention, and then put her back in her place as if nothing had happened.
It feels really good. I'll try playing the little bell next time.
Wayne lowered his head to sense the still weak magic power, and looking at the Book of Greed, the corners of his mouth could not help but slowly open up.
Veronica apologized quietly and glanced in the rearview mirror. What she saw was the liar who was writing in the diary, staring at his crotch and grinning.
Oh my god, I was actually deceived by this kind of stuff!
Veronica curled her lips and poured cold water on him, "Don't be happy too soon. Magic is very dangerous. From getting started to psychological counseling, from eating to taking medicine, from school to the cemetery, there are many magicians who go crazy every year. I hope you are not the next one."
Wayne: (a`′a)
Why would learning magic make you crazy?
