"My goodness, I actually received such a thick grimoire!"
A young boy was so excited he nearly fainted on the spot.
"What's so great about being thick? Mine is twice as big as yours!"
Another boy said with disdain.
However, where there is joy, there is sorrow. For example, the grimoire obtained by a thin, small boy was only the size of a palm.
But...
Arlan closed his eyes. Who the hell could tell him why everyone had one except him!
"Forget it, it's the expected outcome."
Arlan curled his lip. Being rejected by the world's mainstream cultivation system wasn't the first or second time, so not getting a grimoire was no big deal.
Now he had already accumulated 200 points. Once he saved up 10,000 points, he would exchange for a one-tomoe Sharingan to play with. Once the Sharingan was activated, he would still be the coolest guy in this world!
"It seems I'll have to go practice in the deep mountains and forests when I get back."
Arlan sighed. He had originally thought that if he got a grimoire, he would go to the royal capital to live it up and witness the world's top combat power, but now that getting a grimoire was hopeless, he could only quietly go out to farm for experience...
"Hmph! I'm going to participate in the Magic Knight Squad exam in half a year!"
Will said smugly, his eyes and brows filled with arrogance.
"We will definitely pass!"
Rake also said with extreme confidence.
"Life is now showing a gap! From now on, clouds are clouds and mud is mud. A castaway is only fit to linger on in the church. So what if you can slaughter pigs? Once we join the Magic Knight Squad, we will have huge room for improvement. Even slaying a dragon is not impossible!"
Will looked at the empty-handed Arlan and couldn't help but sneer.
"It's truly pathetic. Not even a grimoire bothers with him! I heard that in many places, hillbillies with mediocre strength still shamelessly participate in the Magic Knight Squad exam just to leave a glimmer of hope for a future life of farming, but he doesn't even have that chance!"
Rake also happily joined in the mockery. For this magic world, what was the difference between not being able to use magic and being a loser!
"Damn it, I won't allow you to insult Asta like that!"
Yuno gritted his teeth and stood up.
"Where did this poor guy come from? Get lost!"
Will said with disgust. Just at this moment, a cold, indifferent voice came from afar.
"Do you want to know what the real difference between clouds and mud is?"
Arlan looked coldly at the two, then placed his hands on their shoulders.
"What are you trying to do?"
"This is the grimoire tower, you dare to kill?"
Will and Rake both felt a chill in their spines—this was a rhythm of disaster!
Whoosh!
As expected.
Arlan dragged Will and Rake out of the grimoire tower as if they were two puppets. His speed was like a blue beast; when sprinting, Chakra quickly condensed on his legs. His current speed was five times that of a normal person!
"Murder—!"
Arlan's current speed was so fast that Will and Rake's screams sounded like echoes!
However, when brushing past Yuno, the grimoire in Yuno's hand suddenly bloomed with dazzling golden light. This golden light quickly attracted everyone's attention.
"A four-leaf Clover blooms!"
The tower master's gaze focused. He was shocked to find that the back of the grimoire, which was slowly turning in the golden light, actually had four leaves!
"A clover grimoire!"
Exclamations filled the grimoire tower, just because this was the clover grimoire that the First Magic Emperor had also been awarded!
As everyone knows, the three leaves of a Clover contain "honesty," "hope," and "love," while this fourth leaf harbors "good luck"!
Besides the extra attribute of "good luck," this grimoire itself also contained super-strong magic power. This was simply the legendary strongest grimoire!
"Yuno seems to have gotten an incredible grimoire. Looks like I need to finish off these two small fries quickly."
Arlan glanced sideways, then strode out of the grimoire tower. After rushing out, Arlan leaped up, directly carrying the two of them onto a seven-meter-high eave.
