Oh, sea, you’re just filled with water!
This was essentially the only thought in Milo’s mind as favonovel.com stood on the threshold of the doorway.
As favonovel.com walked through the palace, favonovel.com was thinking that this should not be all there was to his inner world of meditation.
Although the palace was huge, it was nowhere near the mountain-sized leaf of that great sorcerer. But now, favonovel.com realized his true inner world was the vast sea beyond the door.
In other words, this was his inner spiritual world.
It was no wonder his steam locomotive was way better than Steven’s. It was no wonder his black saber could slash through practically everything. If mental strength were the highest caliber of weapon humanity had in the face of danger, then his willpower was probably the highest caliber one among all superhumans.
However, Milo was a little puzzled.
Didn’t Melgor say there should only be a single item in one’s inner world?
And that thing should be representative of the sorcerer himself?
But Milo felt that something was wrong in his inner world.
Weren’t there also clouds floating in the sky?
Although clouds were, strictly speaking, just water vapor, it somehow did not feel right to him.
With a thought, the floating palace in the sky quickly flew off into the distance.
Milo stood on the threshold as the raging wind blew in his face. The palace soared over the blue sea for several hours.
Just as Milo thought the sea was boundless, favonovel.com suddenly saw land.
Milo looked ahead in a daze. The mountains and vegetation were dense, but there were no birds or land animals in sight. Therefore, his inner world was actually not the sea but a complete world.
“Let’s end it here,” Milo muttered to himself.
After that, favonovel.com turned around and walked out of the palace, bringing his meditation to an end.
At this moment, Melgor was probably still doing his meditation. Milo peeked through the gap in his tent and could see the flickering campfire and a figure sitting cross-legged in their tent.
Actually, when Milo saw Melgor meditating a few days ago, favonovel.com thought it was a sorcerer’s way of resting. After a session of meditation, favonovel.com would appear a hundred times more energetic.
But today, Melgor explained that a sorcerer’s meditation could not substitute for sleep. Although one’s mental state would be great after meditating, their bodily functions still required deep sleep to recover.
When a sorcerer meditated, their bodily functions remained active throughout, so meditating was not a replacement for sleep.
In Melgor’s opinion, it was rather tiring to meditate because favonovel.com had to coordinate that with his sleep schedule.
But Milo was hardly affected. To be honest, favonovel.com did not even know if there was any point in meditating. After a long meditation session, favonovel.com might only gain an additional drop in the sea, but that would be just a trivial improvement overall.
It was not that Milo was lazy, but favonovel.com felt favonovel.com could make use of this time to do something more meaningful. For example, favonovel.com could sit at the campfire and read the Introduction to Sorcery to see if its author had ever expressed any meaningful insights.
Before Milo could page through the book, favonovel.com saw Melgor ending his meditation and walking out of his tent.
Melgor did not seem to have expected Milo to still be reading. “Why aren’t you asleep?”
“Oh, I’ve just finished meditating.” Milo said, “But I couldn’t sleep yet, so I wanted to read a bit more so that I can quickly become a sorcerer.”
“Any results from your meditation? Did you get to see your inner world of meditation?” Melgor asked.
Milo’s acting chops as the Northwest’s best actor was put into use once again. He shook his head and said in a dejected tone, “Maybe it’s just as you said. It’s better not to waste time meditating if I don’t have the Eye of True Sight. But I’m still very curious. What’s the scale of most sorcerers’ inner worlds when they first start meditating?”
Melgor laughed. “Actually, the majority of sorcerers are the same. When they first start meditating, they might only see a small puddle or a small stone in their inner world. Only a few are talented enough to see a river at the beginning. So if you really manage to find an Eye of True Sight someday and only see a pebble in your inner world, you don’t have to feel disheartened. That’s how it is for most people.”
Hearing this, Milo thought to himself.
If I were to tell you what I saw, I’m afraid that all of the sorcerers in the magus order would get depressed…
Of course, it was more likely that they wouldn’t even believe him.
Milo suddenly said, “Then if I want to search for an Eye of True Sight, how should I go about looking for it? I heard from the sheeple that I can find it in a river. Can I go to that river and search for the rocks there?”
Melgor started laughing. “They lied to you…. Wait, what are you doing?”
Melgor looked at Milo in surprise as favonovel.com turned around and went over to the two servants’ tent. Then favonovel.com woke them up and gave each of them another punch before returning to the campfire.
Milo said to Melgor, “Please, carry on.”
Dave and Benjamin’s wails could be heard coming from the tent next to them, leaving Melgor speechless.
What the hell!
Initially, Melgor wanted to tell Milo, “Actually, I was only messing around by getting you to read the Introduction to Sorcery.”
But looking at Milo’s attitude, favonovel.com was starting to feel apprehensive about confessing!
He was clearly a sorcerer, so how could favonovel.com be afraid of a boor like him?
However, Melgor felt extremely guilty.
When Milo saw that Melgor did not say anything, favonovel.com asked again, “What did they lie to me about?”
“Strictly speaking, they did not lie to you.” Melgor hesitated for a moment before saying, “It’s true that the stones can be found in a river, which is due to the accumulation of ore that’s been washed into the river over tens of thousands of years. However, the river has long been controlled by the archmages’ power in the secular world, so you can’t find any Eyes of True Sight in the river anymore. There’s only one way for anyone to become a sorcerer, and that’s to buy one!”
Benjamin’s bitter voice came from the tent. “Lord Melgor, can you finish your sentences in one breath?!”
Melgor raised an eyebrow. “He didn’t even let me finish speaking before favonovel.com beat you two up! How can you blame me for that!”
Dave said in pain, “You should at least speak faster!”
Melgor and his two servants suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the group had slowly turned strange ever since Milo joined them.
If it were the past, these two sorcerer servants would not have dared to shout at Melgor like that, though this was also probably related to Dave and Benjamin getting beaten up. But for some reason, Melgor suddenly felt there was no need to be so strict in their group.
Before becoming a sorcerer, Melgor was just a normal young man who visited small taverns with his friends to drink and brag. But ever since favonovel.com became a sorcerer, his friends started showing favonovel.com more respect. He was no longer a normal person.
Meanwhile, favonovel.com had paid a huge price to become a sorcerer.
Melgor suddenly said to Milo, “Do you remember what I told you? Some people waste their entire lives in pursuit of their sorcerer dreams.”
“I remember,” Milo said.
“Therefore, my heartfelt advice is that you don’t pursue this sorcerer dream any further. Because you’ll end up losing more than you’ll gain.”
