Talent level increased by one, a transcendent Star Wizard

Afterwards, the two returned to their home, but some people disapproved of their relationship.

Ultimately, outsiders stirred up trouble between the two, making one party think that the other did not value them, while making the other party feel that the gift the other gave was a veiled criticism of their stinginess.

Originally, the two of them could have resolved the issue by simply explaining things to each other, but a series of coincidences led to the situation escalating further.

Ultimately, the two became enemies, sparking a war that engulfed almost the entire wizarding world.

Upon hearing this, Xia Jian's face showed a look of astonishment, and his gaze toward Herammons carried a strange meaning.

Could giving a gift trigger a world war?

Don't think that just because you're old you can spout nonsense. You need to convince people to believe what you're saying.

"Do you think I'm talking nonsense?"

"Hramons suddenly asked."

Xia Jian remained silent, which indicated his tacit agreement.

"Sometimes the world is just that strange. Although there may be some errors, this is indeed the origin of equivalent exchange."

Seeing this, Herammons smiled, his tone tinged with a hint of emotion.

"The master didn't summon me out just to tell me a story, did he?"

Xia Jian wasn't interested in the story; it was all from ten thousand years ago, very far removed from him. He was more interested in knowing why Heramons had summoned him.

"The definition of equivalent exchange is to allow wizards to maintain their integrity and not be influenced by certain uncertainties, thereby causing all sorts of mistakes."

Heramons did not answer, but instead continued talking about equivalent exchange.

Xia Jian touched his nose. Although he was very reluctant to stay any longer, he reluctantly endured it this time because the other party was a big shot.

Do you feel like you've done something wrong?

Herammons stopped smiling and suddenly looked at Xia Jian and asked.

"What's wrong? I'm fine."

Xia Jian raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at Heramons with a puzzled expression.

Aside from the troubles with Mu Shuang, I'm doing pretty well.

With no worries about food and drink every day, all I need to do is study hard and steadily improve my abilities.

"It's not your appearance that's the problem, but your mindset."

Heramons shook his head slightly, and before Xia Jian could answer, he continued, "The smell of blood on you is much stronger than before we went to the ruins."

"Having great strength in your youth means that your talent is almost at the top of the entire wizarding world, but the great strength you gained in a short period of time has begun to distort your mentality."

"Think carefully, what's the difference between you now and you back then?"

Upon hearing Herammons's words, Natsume lowered his head and fell silent, his mind replaying his previous experiences.

When I first transmigrated, I was extremely cautious, and even surviving was a luxury.

When they first gained the power of the knight, they were afraid of trouble and unwilling to have too much contact with outsiders. In fact, they were just trying to protect themselves from harm from the outside world.

Although things got a little better afterward, they didn't easily make enemies with others.

But when the wizard's power was placed before him, everything seemed to change.

They no longer fear trouble, dislike being timid and hesitant, and begin to yearn for excitement and adventure. They are quick to resort to violence and are prone to murdering entire families.

For example, during the incident at Yinmo Valley, probably no normal person would have taken such a risk as he did.

Although the returns are ridiculously high, you only need to encounter a second-tier wizard to easily bring him back to his original form.

Ultimately, the fact that they were able to plunder the Arctic Sirius Palace's medicinal garden was largely due to luck.

Moreover, along the way to Neilbella, he had killed at least several hundred wizard apprentices, if not thousands, all to plunder their wealth.

But in reality, I don't lack those things at all, and this becomes more and more apparent as time goes on.

Compared to exchanging something for something of equal value with someone else, the sword in one's own hand seems more convincing, and as it turns out, the sword is indeed very useful.

For Xia Jian, he no longer thinks about problems much, because all his thoughts and ideas are for the purpose of killing better.

Nowadays, killing seems to have become a daily occurrence, and people don't even feel much emotion about it.

As Xia Jian was thinking, Heramons' voice came to her ears again.

"On the path of seeking truth, a wizard must first learn to maintain his true self, rather than becoming a beast driven by desire."

"Your bloodlust is too strong. It may not be a problem now, but if you don't overcome it, it may become a hurdle that prevents you from becoming a powerful wizard."

Seeing the change in Xia Jian's eyes, Heramons, like a teacher, wanted to guide Xia Jian back on the right track.

"Been taught a lesson."

Feeling grateful for Herammons's kindness, Natsumi bowed deeply.

Compared to the people he had met, Herammons was undoubtedly a qualified teacher.

After all, the two had only met a few times. Even if someone else could see his problem, they would definitely not meddle.

"As a wizard who has trained and grown up on your own, it's perfectly normal for you to have this mindset."

"You haven't interacted with enough people your age, and you lack the vitality and emotions that people your age should have. This is one of the reasons why you have such a strong desire to kill."

Heramons stroked his beard, very satisfied with Natsumi's performance, and continued speaking with a kind expression.

"Your teacher and I have already discussed it, and you can come to Dammons Academy to register tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Xia Jian was slightly taken aback.

Considering Mu Shuang's character, Xia Jian paused for a moment before asking, "You must have paid a heavy price, right?"

I have already witnessed Mu Shuang's unpredictable temper. Her powerful strength allows her to disregard the opinions of others and do whatever she wants.

Summer's freedom is also under Mu Shuang's control.

Heramons chuckled and said nonchalantly, "I didn't pay any price. Anyway, I don't need the Brilliant Star."

As the Brilliant Star was a joint possession of them, following the principle of equivalent exchange, it naturally included his share as well.

However, for Heramons, the Brilliant Star was of limited use and not as valuable as a genius wizard like Xia Jian.

Thank you.

After a long silence, Xia Jian slowly expressed his gratitude with a complex expression in his eyes.

If Mu Shuang were like Herammons, then for him, Neilbella would be nothing short of paradise, a veritable fairyland.

The two chatted for a while, and Xia Jian asked about the Brilliant Star.

After all, the Brilliant Star is related to the 'Skill Points' section on the control panel.

Even if you can't see its usefulness now, it's definitely not something simple, so it's always good to learn more about it.

Unfortunately, Herammons knew very little about this, only that it was used to maintain the core of the ruins and could draw energy from the void when combined with a large-scale spirit-gathering array.

The large-scale formations within the ruins are now damaged, making it impossible to construct the corresponding formations. Consequently, the value of the Brilliant Star has naturally diminished considerably.
