Austin breathed in the aroma of his sister’s room and cleared his throat. “Well, Catherine, aren’t you going to take the official magister’s exam in a few days?”
“Yep,” Catherine answered.
“I’ve specially prepared an amulet for you. I’m giving it to you as a blessing that you’ll be safe and pass the official martial arts examination.”
Austin looked serious as he solemnly placed the small fortune bag in Catherine’s hand.
Before his sister could react, he grabbed her hand.
“Sister…”
“B-brother?”
Catherine looked at her brother while she was at a loss.
Austin did not hear the system notification and could only continue to stall for time. He grabbed Catherine’s hand and did not let go.
“Sister, are you seriously considering taking this exam?
“There’s too little time. You need more time to settle down and sharpen your actual combat experience.”
Austin anxiously waited for the system notification while he said worriedly, “As your older brother… I’m worried about you.”
Catherine allowed Austin to hold her hand, her pretty face blushing slightly in the dark.
“Brother, I’m no longer a child. I know what I’m doing exactly.
“Besides, I just can’t miss the opportunity of joining the Thunder Guild!”
Catherine’s lively eyes brightened up in determination.
“I want Mom, Dad, and you to lead a good life.
“I heard that as long as you become an official member of the Thunder Guild, you can let your immediate family move to a more prosperous city and obtain a house.
“That place is said to be the richest city in the country and even in the world.”
Catherine’s heartfelt voice moved Austin.
A warm current flowed through Austin’s heart.
At this moment, the system notification sounded. “Ding! The host has come into contact with a magister. Your cells have evolved and your physical fitness has increased by five times!”
Austin felt his body heat up immediately.
Every cell in his body was rapidly metabolizing, evolving, and becoming stronger!
Skin cells, muscle cells, blood cells, organ cells…
All kinds of cells were getting enhanced!
The transformation that Austin experienced was earth-shattering.
Strength!
Speed!
Reaction!
Vision, hearing, endurance, etc…
All of them increased by five times!!
It was an unimaginable leap.
To Austin, it was as if he had transformed from an ordinary person to a powerful person with extraordinary powers.
Austin’s heart raced as he patted his sister’s palm.
“Don’t worry, Catherine. I’ll be with you at the official Magister exam.”
After some casual conversation, Austin returned to his room.
Catherine returned to sit cross-legged.
She lowered her head and placed the small fortune bag in her heart, her lips curling up out of the blue.
“Brother, you’ve always been by my side.”
Meanwhile, Austin paced back and forth excitedly when he returned to his room.
“I can feel that my body is filled with power now.”
“So this is the power of a magister?”
Magisters were divided into two types. One was a physical body cultivation technique mainly supported by weaponry, while the other was a magical cultivation technique mainly supported by magic spells. It was clear that Catherine was a physical magister who mainly used magitek as her attacking means.
Austin clenched his fist, tightening his arm muscles.
The power was infused into his arm, gathering without being released.
He felt that he could kill a cow with one punch.
It was a pity that he did not have a target to attack. Otherwise, Austin would have tried to see if he had reached the standard of an apprentice magister.
Austin’s heart palpitated, and he asked in his mind, “System, what if I come into contact with a tier-two or maybe tier-four magister? Will I become a tier-two or tier-four magister directly?”
The system voice replied, “Ding. Host, according to the cultivation system of this planet, the strength of a high-tier magister does not lay in the physical attributes, but it is in the power of the magic reserves.”
A magister would not just train on their physical aspect.
The later the cultivation stage, the greater the importance of the magic training became.
“In addition, in order for the host’s current cells to evolve to the level of a high-tier magister, the time needed to contact them will be extremely long.”
Austin was not too disappointed after hearing the system’s explanation.
It was right within his expectations.
Anyway, he did not know any high-tier magister.
Austin only wanted to ask to confirm his guess.
“Indeed, one can’t become fat with one bite.”
When night fell while his parents went to bed, Austin rushed to the kitchen to turn on the stove.
Facing the burning flames in the furnace, Austin hesitated for a moment before putting his hand closer to it.
According to his previous life’s memories, the temperature of the external flames would be around 1,300 to 1,400 °C.
It was not a big deal as his cells had evolved to resist fire, allowing him to withstand the burning from the flames.
“Ding… Host cell has come into contact with fire and evolved into fire resistance level two. Fire control level two.”
After raising his fire resistance and fire control abilities to level two, Austin returned to his room to sleep.
The next morning.
The clear sunlight broke the night sky and scattered across the city.
His father called Austin up. He still had to work at the Magister Association’s magical beast farm.
Austin did not feel like going, but he was afraid his father would be worried.
Thus, he accompanied his father to the magical beast breeding area.
Fortunately, Austin’s position was different from Dearka’s.
Dearka was a master trainer of magical beasts, while Austin was responsible for the transportation of feed and other items.
He planned to apply for leave from the head of the task force after Dearka went to work. Then, he would begin his cell evolution journey.
In a few days, it would be her sister Catherine’s official examination.
Austin planned to become an apprentice magister within these few days and take the official magister exam with his sister.
Magical Beast Breeding Area.
He looked up at the walls of the breeding area. They seemed much grander than the ancient city walls.
It was simply spectacular!
There were many active magical beasts in the magical beast breeding area.
These magical beasts were raised in the city for their magic cores, a supplementary cultivation material.
Austin took out his work pass and walked through the front door with his father before they walked to their respective work areas.
Looking into the distance, there was already a hunting party formed by Magisters leaving the city at the checkpoint outside the city.
It was a well-equipped hunting party consisting of powerful magisters.
There was even a reinforced supply wagon with a size comparable to a tank.
And more advanced magitek.
Before a magister advanced to a higher level, the power of a magitek was still sizable.
Therefore, when these Magisters set out to hunt the magic beasts, they would also try their best to arm themselves to the teeth.
Whoever dared to be lightly equipped were either seeking death, or they were absolute experts.
