I am the descendant of a dark wizard, and I will inherit the family fortune.

"The great Lord of the Sanctuary..."

This is where his second life begins.

Leon felt confused and terrified from the bottom of his heart at this power that clearly surpassed that of ordinary people...

Temodo smiled ingratiatingly, his old face looking like a blooming autumn flower.

"Leon, are you okay?"

Leon shook his head. He had come this far and it seemed like he had nothing to be afraid of.

I just keep going my way, move forward, and don't look back!

When I think of it, the world becomes wider.

Leon felt as if he had returned to the day when he became an official wizard.

Although Leon didn't move, Temodo suddenly felt the pressure on him increase...

So, for the first time, Temodo bowed in front of Leon.

An old man with gray hair is bowing to a young man...

If this scene were put in the previous life, it would have been criticized...

"Lord Leon..."

"Hoo~ Professor Temodo, could you please explain to me the Abyssal Text just now?"

Temodo was stunned. He felt that Leon obviously wanted to take another look at the contract, so he asked tentatively: "Should I take out the contract again?"

Leon nodded, Temodo paused, and then took out the contract paper again.

The strange smell spread again.

Leon held his breath for a moment and asked, "What's that smell on this contract?"

The corners of Temodo's mouth rose slightly. As long as he could prove his value, Temodo would be happy.

"Master Leon, please allow me to introduce this contract paper to you.

First of all, its material. This is not parchment... but wizard's leather.

Secondly, the ink above is a mixture of blood and some minerals.

The smell that Lord Leon smelled was actually mainly the smell of ore."

Leon couldn't help but ask a few more questions when he encountered this knowledge for the first time.

"A wizard's hide... what else do you want? Also, what kind of ore is this?"

Temodo regained his professorial nature and was full of confidence.

"Haha, Leon, you asked a very good question!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Temodo noticed Leon's calm expression, and his confidence flared up...

Most of it went out instantly...

“Ahem, Lord Leon… Just like our potions, the better the ingredients, the better the effect will generally be.

For example, the contract in my hand only uses the skin and blood of a low-level second-level wizard, so it can only be effective for wizards below this level.

And the most important thing is that the skin and blood... must be from the same wizard, for this to be effective."

Leon nodded, not surprised by this.

Seeing that Leon didn't ask any other questions, Temodo continued, "As for this ore... I don't know its specific name. I only know that it is collectively called abyss ore, also known as abyss stone."

"In other words, these ores come from the abyss?"

Temodo immediately agreed, "Yes, these ores all come from the abyss, and they must come from the abyss.

First of all, a contract like this requires communication with beings in the Abyss, so the Abyss Stone is necessary."

Upon hearing this, Leon asked calmly, "Is this the only way to communicate with the beings in the abyss?"

Temodo opened his mouth, "This...this..."

Leon waved his hand and said, “Since it’s inconvenient for you to say it, then don’t say it.”

"No, no, no, it's convenient! It's convenient!" Temodo glanced at the contract in his hand. "Master Leon, some rituals... don't require the Abyss Stone."

"ceremony?"

Temodo said solemnly, “Yes, it’s certain rituals… such as… sacrifice.

But this is not allowed. Whether it is a white wizard or a black wizard, it is strictly prohibited. Once discovered, the White Tower and the Black Bone Forest will even jointly hunt down and kill them..."

what?

Leon was a little confused. Would a dark wizard care about things like sacrifice?

"Why is this? Aren't we at odds with the White Wizard? Why are we issuing a joint wanted warrant?"

Temodo sighed, "Alas, because sometimes, those summoned through rituals can be a little... uncontrollable...

And in their eyes, whether they are white wizards or black wizards, they are all wizards anyway..."

Leon understood that the main reasons were "out of control" and "indiscriminate killing of innocent people"...

Especially the latter, everyone is worried that they will be affected...

"I forgot what year it was, but I was still young then... There was a young wizard who, I don't know where he found the sacrificial ritual, secretly performed the sacrifice. By the time he was discovered, it was too late...

Because of that fool, at least hundreds of black and white wizards died, including a third-level wizard!

I was almost sent there!"

Temodo's face was still filled with fear, "It was thanks to the sacrifice of that third-level wizard that this farce was finally put to an end.

Well, the point is... that fool is said to be not dead yet!

"Hey? Lord Leon, are you...are you okay?"

Seeing that Leon looked a little unhappy, Temodo asked considerately.

Knowing that Temodo was not being sarcastic on purpose, Leon could only sulk alone.

At the same time, Leon was also somewhat relieved that he was not discovered...

I'm also glad that I didn't hold that ceremony again...

Why? !

Leon suddenly had an idea. Is it possible that I could secretly hand over the ritual to someone else, or simply frame him?

No matter how powerful the descendants of those big families are, can they really withstand the Black and White Houses?

That's right! I'm talking about you! James Seeger!

But this kind of thing is very difficult to do, and if you are not careful, you will expose yourself and get yourself into trouble, so Leon quickly put this bad idea behind him.

……

"Lord Leon?"

Leon waved his hand and said, "I'm fine, but this is my first time to learn this knowledge, and I feel it's a bit strange."

Temodo nodded, "Master Leon is right, but this kind of knowledge... is better to avoid it.

Because the beings in the abyss are best at deceiving people. They can always find various reasons to attract you...

In short, Sir Leon must be careful. If you discover a dangerous summoning ritual, or hear about such a thing from somewhere... you can report it to the academy. If it is true, there will be a huge reward! "

Leon: ...

Seeing Leon's speechless face, Temodo chuckled, "Master Leon, don't underestimate the reward. Once confirmed, you can get two! One for the White Tower, one for the Black Bone Forest, or even more!

As far as I know, the biggest reward in these years was a bottle of fourth-level magic potion."

Leon:!!!

Good man, if the prize is so tempting, Leon wants to report himself...

Leon gathered his thoughts and said, "I've heard of the sacrifice ceremony... What's the difference between this and the summoning ceremony?"
