The Lost Mage

Chapter 5

If you are ready to kill, then be ready to be killed. Once Balor heard this from his teacher and carved this phrase in his heart. The Balor was not afraid of death, he simply did not want to die. He could not be called a saint, like any magician, he had t blood on his hands.

After the knife pierced in the heart of Jiang Chen, his lifeless body began to quickly fall to the ground. Since Balor still held the hand of a dead enemy, he had no choice but to follow him.

Having fallen on his stomach, but not stopping insatiably absorb the life force of Jiang Chen, which has already begun to quickly dissipate, Balor turned his attention to his condition.

"The chest is broken, there is a lot of blood loss, muscles are stretched on the legs, a bone cracked on the right wrist. I"m still lucky, I thought it would be worse. "

Having absorbed a little vitality and thereby regained some mana, Balor cast a healing spell on himself.

"Body. Healing. ""

To use magic, you need to have mana and know the right Word.

Mana is the energy absorbed from the outside world or obtained in another way, for example using a forbidden spell, absorbing life energy from another living creature and converting it into mana.

The amount of mana that a magician can store is limited. Therefore, magicians from the era of the birth of the magical era were looking for ways to increase this figure, but everything was in vain. Its limits are determined only by physique from nature and the age of the magician himself.

The older the magician, the more he in his life repeated the cycle of absorption and the subsequent release of mana and thereby adapting his body to more energy.

Therefore, in the world of magic, it was the age that was an indicator of strength. The older the mage, the more mana, experience in mortal battles, and most importantly, the more he knew the Words.

Words are the components of a single spell. It is the number of Words per spell that determines its level. They were taken from the Dead Language, according to legends and traditions, the language of the G.o.ds.

They did not have to be spoken out loud. Just imagine the Word and using mana, translate it into reality.

But there was one very big problem. No one knew the exact translation of the Words, which is why it was called the Dead Language.

Words could be found in ancient ruins or ancient scrolls, but to find the Word does not mean to become stronger. If you do not know its meaning, then it is useless. And not every magician dares dare to try to use the Word if he does not know its translation. It will be sad if it turns out to be "" Explosion "" or, if the magician is completely unlucky, "" Wormhole. ""

For many centuries, magicians of various races, experimenting, have found the possible meaning of Many Words. In a world where power means everything, and information is power, magicians who risked their lives in decryption were in no hurry to share information. Preferring to take the transfer to the grave or pa.s.s it on to his student.


Such was the world of magic, severe, inhospitable, b.l.o.o.d.y. Where a random mistake in the Word can lead you to a terrible death.

Balor felt how slowly his body began to recover, it even made it easier to breathe. He looked at Jiang Chen"s still open eyes, which showed traces of unbelief. After a second, he looked at another body.

"What, it was hard to breathe when you had coals instead of lungs?"

Balor"s free hand reached for Lee Hong"s leg.

"" Life. Absorption. Mana""

He knew that there was practically no life energy left in Lee Hong"s body, but he already had enough if more mana was received than he spent on the spell.

A minute later, Balor felt that the absorption of vitality had slowly stopped, knowing that it was no longer useless to stay here, he slowly stood up, considering his further actions.

"Staying here further is dangerous. As I can judge because of the identical clothes of these two, they are from the same organization. When they notice the loss, they will probably send in search of someone. Although the strength of these two did not impress me, if everyone here is like that, then I can relax. But it"s better not to risk it, after all, they look young enough. "

Once again a.s.sessing his condition, Balor sighed a little sadly.

Although the ribcage has recovered, it hurts a little, the crack on the arm is gone, the multiple cuts on the body have disappeared.

"It would be ideal to use the healing spell again, but I was able to recover only about five percent of the mana. Better save it for unforeseen cases. "

Turning his attention to his appearance, Balor sighed sadly a second time.

His black magic robe was torn and all in the blood, and his pouch disappeared without a trace.

"d.a.m.n, how could I forget? I had a mana potion! "

Quickly taking a small bottle from his pocket, Balor sighed sadly a third time.

"I was naive, naturally gla.s.s bottle is broke. Okay, I"ll see my pockets later, first I have to leave here. "

Throwing the gla.s.s to the ground, he last looked at the place where he nearly died three times in the short time that he spent in this world.

"Okay, let"s go. Let"s see what else this place will surprise me with. "

By accidentally choosing a direction, Balor decisively took his first step in this world.

"f.u.c.k, how could I forget?"

After a couple of meters, he turned sharply and returned. Going to the corpse of Jiang Chen and unfolding it, he looked at his black knife in his heart. Without thinking for a long time, he pulled it out of a dead body with a quick movement.

"If I"ve already returned, let"s see if they have something interesting."

After a short period of looting, Balor had two wallets and one scroll in his hands.

"I think it"s better to leave the study of these things for later. I must get out of here first. "

Once again, accidentally choosing a direction, Balor took another step in this world.
