Bohr prayed, but the raven outside did not leave him alone, continuing to knock on his door.
"Hey! Open the door, you rude fellow!"
"I, Piquat, have been flying for half a month to deliver this letter to you. Open the door quickly, do you hear me!"
"Bohr Kelermo, open the door, or I"m breaking the door down!"
Bohr felt his knowledge about world crumbling. He trapped inside his house by a raven. The raven even claimed to be a mailman, that its name was Piquat and that it was here to deliver a letter!
"Boom!"
A strong gust of wind blew past him. Bohr felt the door to his house being sliced into two while the sharp dagger of wind flew right past his head. The door crumbled, bringing along with it the furniture and painting around it. The debri buried Bohr. The house had been ravaged!
Piquat jumped into the room and stood on Bohr"s head. It then lifted a small bag and opened it with its steel-like feathers.
"Hey Bohr Kelermo, your letter is here, please come and receive it!"
"Hm, where is he?"
Bohr, who was buried in the debri, was at a loss. He trembled as he took out an exquisite letter from within the bag. There was a golden seal on the letter. On the seal were two circles intersecting with each other, as if two snakes intertwined. There was also his name was written on it.
Bohr gaped, "You"re really a mailman? No, b.a.s.t.a.r.d, what did you do. You destroyed my door!"
This was the first time Bohr had ever since such a strange mailman. He had also never heard of someone that would send a raven to deliver letters. Furthermore, this bird could talk and release a mysterious power that could destroy his door!
Bohr nailed a few pieces of the door back to the frame in order to block out the cold wind. He could get someone to fix the door a few days later. Even though he still felt as though he was in a dream, Bohr still opened the strange letter delivered by the raven and carefully finished reading its contents.
"Greetings, Mr. Bohr Kelermo. Congratulations, you"ve been accepted into the Wizard Tower as an apprentice. If you are willing, please inform your mailman. It will then guide you onto a vehicle. You"ll then head to the Wizard Tower and receive a five year apprentices.h.i.+p!"
"The Wizard Tower is a…"
"Gain mastery over knowledge, understand the world and you would be able to do anything!"
Bohr finished reading the letter in a daze, generally understanding its contents. An organization called the Wizard Tower had given him an invitation and had requested for him to head to their organization to learn and become an apprentice wizard. The Wizard Tower was akin to a school and an organization for wizards.
Wizards are a group of people who learn and control witchcraft. The letter told him that they were a group of people who understood the world, knew the world and could control the laws and basic forms of energy of this world!
But Bohr did not fully understand this. He turned his head to the raven called Piquat, "raven, what is a wizard?"
Piquat jumped onto the table and extended its wings under the light, "My name is Piquat. I"m not a raven, I"m a wind raven, a magical beast that can control wind. I am a higher order life form, not a dumb creature like a raven!"
Bohr"s face twitched, "Alright, Mister Piquat, what in the world is a wizard?"
Piquat nodded in satisfaction, "En, since you asked so sincerely, I guess I"ll give you an explanation!"
Piquat moved his wings. Two blades of wind intersected as they got released, slicing the table behind Bohr into four quarters. Its power was precise and incredibly accurate!
Bohr jumped, "My table, that was something my grandfather left behind. My G.o.d, what are you trying to do?"
Piquat blew on its wings, "Didn"t you ask me for an explanation? This is the power of the wizards. Wizards understand the power hidden within the world, and they control supernatural powers. As long as you understand the power behind the wind, you would be able to control the wind. If you understand lightning, you"ll be able to control lightning. If you understand the fundamental nature of water, you would be able to swim freely within the ocean. That is a wizard!"
Bohr gaped, "You"re saying that I could control power like that?"
"Of course. If you go through the education of the Tower, you would be able to grasp the true nature of this world and gain limitless knowledge. You would become a wizard!" Piquat nodded.
"Then, if I understand the mysteries of the human body, would I be able to cure all the diseases in the world and everything about the body?" Bohr asked eagerly.
Piquat couldn"t really comprehend Bohr"s question as it was merely repeating what Lu Zhiyu had taught it. It instantly said, "Of course! There is nothing the Wizard Tower can"t do!"
Bohr became very excited, "Then how can I head to the Tower?"
Piquat turned its head and did a little calculations, "I have to send a signal to the s.h.i.+p. According to the plan, we leave a week from today at midnight. The s.h.i.+p will be waiting for us at the port. All we have to do is board the s.h.i.+p and head to the Wizard Tower with the other chosen apprentices."
"There are others?" Bohr immediately asked.
"Of course there are, do you think you are unique?" Piquat said with a little disdain in its eyes.
Bohr rubbed his nose, but he had made his decision to go have a look. He was only twenty now. He didn"t want to live in this small town and be a mediocre doctor for the rest of his life. He loved medicine and wanted to know as much as he could about the human body. He wanted to understand the mysteries behind the human body!
Thus, the invitation from the Wizard Tower was an amazing opportunity. He was very intrigued by Piquat"s words and the world described within the letter. The craving of a human for knowledge and adventure is endless!
There was even a strange life form like Piquat presented right in his eyes, giving him a glimpse of the secrets this world held. A magical beast? What is that? To be able to release supernatural powers!
It was wondrous that a raven could possess intelligence and speak. Bohr looked curiously at Piquat. Piquat was displaying its wings and alluring posture under the light. In its daze, it turned its head to see Bohr"s longing eyes!
"Oh my G.o.d, what are you doing. I have a girlfriend, you know. Amongst the wind ravens, I am the famous casanova. Do not look at me with your dirty, l.u.s.tful eyes!" Piquat lowered his wings an tiptoed as he looked at Bohr defensively.
Bohr smiled awkwardly. He would never admit that he was curious about Piquat"s brain and how a small brain like his could gain intelligence! But he did not dare say it. Piquat was a raven with supernatural abilities, while he was merely an ordinary person, not even a knight. But in Bohr"s eyes, even a Bloodline Knight who has awakened his abilities might not be a match for this raven!
