Before the dinner started, Sean went to the study room of the castle and took out a piece of parchment, and then described in detail the appearance of coal, oil and saltpeter mines on the parchment.

The coastal area on the east side of the Elf Forest is a narrow desert with an area of ​​approximately 180,000 square kilometers, which is slightly larger than the Principality of Lane.

Saltpeter mines are very rare, but there may be saltpeter mines behind the coastal desert plateau, so Sean asked the mercenary group to explore the desert area and promised to give them extra rewards.

After writing it, Sean handed the parchment to his valet and asked the valet to deliver the parchment to the mercenary group station outside the castle.

...

After solving the problem with the list, Sean returned to the hall of the castle.

At this time, Anduin finished his work of recruiting stewards and returned to the castle. Lucio, whom he hadn't seen all afternoon, also came over to grab some food and "eat and drink".

Seeing that everyone had arrived and the chefs in the castle were almost ready to cook the dishes, Sean immediately announced the start of the dinner and started having dinner with everyone.

The chef hired by Henry is very skilled, and most of the dishes are made according to the "palace recipes" given by Sean, which are very delicious.

So except for the Flame Imp and the Void Walker who didn't need to eat, everyone had a great time and praised the dinner.

...

After dinner, Sean patted his belly with satisfaction, and then walked towards his room with the Secret Guardian.

Now that I have eaten and drank enough, the rest is of course to discuss the meditation rules and spell-casting techniques with the blood elf lady.

After all, improving strength and level is the most important thing!

After bringing the blood elf lady to his room, Sean dismissed the valet, closed the door, and said excitedly: "Come on, Kyle, I'm ready!"

"Kyle" is the name the Keeper of Secrets gave herself.

"Don't be excited, Lord Lord, what do you want to learn first?" Kyle looked at Sean with clear eyes.

"Of course it's to release the spell!"

"Then don't get excited. Releasing spells is a natural process. Excessive excitement may even cause magic to backfire." Kyle explained with a smile.

"After all, it's the first time. It's normal for people to be a little excited for the first time." Sean rubbed his hands excitedly.

Although Sean has reached the level of Black Iron Advanced, because the meditation rules given by the Magician's Guild do not record the method of casting spells, Sean has not yet cast a spell himself.

Sean will inevitably be excited when he thinks that he can finally cast his spell.

"Okay then, I'll teach you." Kyle slowly walked up to Sean and began to talk about the knowledge of releasing spells:

"First, you have to communicate with the fire element in the air through the magic core located between the eyebrows... Secondly, you have to engrave the corresponding magic configuration in the magic core... Finally, you have to chant the magic spell..."

While explaining, Kyle gave Sean a demonstration with his own hands.

"Passionate flame element, please obey my call!"

After Kyle recited the incantation, a cluster of flames burst out from her palm, burning violently in the air with a "crackling" sound.

Sean originally wanted to imitate Kyle and release magic, but after thinking about it, he shook his head in embarrassment:

"Actually, I mainly practice the water element and cannot release fire magic."

"It's okay, then I'll teach you the magic configuration of 'Water Arrow', which is similar to 'Flame Blast'..." Kyle began to teach Sean the new magic configuration.

Sean also followed Kyle's guidance and tried to release the "Water Arrow".

...

Time passed minute by minute during Sean's practice.

Half an hour later, Sean, who had experienced dozens of spell casting failures, persevered and started his next attempt.

"By water, by your name, by my body, water arrow!"

Different from the dozens of times before, this time the water element began to condense in the palm, gradually forming a small water arrow.

Sean was overjoyed. Under his control, the water arrows shot out like water from a high-pressure water gun.

"Bang!" There was a muffled sound, and the water arrow hit the window made of oak boards. The huge impact force directly knocked the oak boards to both sides.

"Wow! I succeeded!" Sean, who was sitting on the bed casting spells, jumped up happily.

"Congratulations, Lord Lord!" Kyle, the Guardian of Secrets, also congratulated happily.

...

However, due to the loud sound of the "water arrow" hitting the oak board window, Sean heard a commotion outside his room soon after, followed by the sound of a male servant knocking on the door.

Sean had no choice but to step forward and open the door to the room.

At this time, his valet was standing outside the door, staring at him nervously, and the figure of the butler Henry also appeared not far away.

"Oh, God of Light, what happened? I thought I heard a huge noise coming from your room just now!" Henry, the butler, asked hurriedly before he could reach Sean.

"Oh, there seemed to be something wrong with the window just now and it made some noise... But it's okay now. You all can go back." Sean waved his hand.

Henry, the butler, turned his head and looked toward Sean's room.

From his position, he could just see the oak-paneled windows that had become wet due to the impact of "Water Arrow", and he could also see the blood elf Kyle sitting in front of Sean's desk.

Seeing this, the butler Henry seemed to suddenly understand something.

So Henry, the butler, whispered to Sean: "Lord, you can play, but don't go to such a dangerous place."

After that, the butler Henry began to drive away the servants who had gathered around to watch the excitement: "Let's go, let's go! Go back to your work!"

Butler Henry said as he led the servants away.

...

"What are Henry talking about? Has my casting of spells been discovered?"

Sean glanced at the swaying and dripping oak-paneled windows hit by the "Water Arrow" and felt a little guilty.

After all, the Principality of Lane is a country dominated by warriors. When Sean's predecessor was born, the forest near the royal capital called out Sean's name softly, so he gave up his training as a warrior and changed his profession to become a paladin.

If the Royal Capital and Holy Light Church knew that he could cast magic, Sean would be in big trouble! And his subjects would definitely not accept a "Church Son" who could do magic.

It seems that from now on, magic can only be enjoyed in secret and cannot be revealed in front of the public.
