After saying goodbye to Joran.
Ian headed home.
As he walked, he calculated what he still lacked before advancing to a third-class apprentice.
First, he still needed to prepare a Deep Blue No. 1 Potion, just in case. He also needed all kinds of Mental Power Potions, even high-level Wizard Arrays.
Second, he had to consider his Meditation Method.
The core portion of the Four-Element Resonance Method—the chapter corresponding to third-class witches.
