Master-Level Wind Elemental Magic Rune

The only sound in the alchemy workshop was the occasional faint hum of the alchemy equipment.

Lucien leaned back in his chair, his attention focused on the semi-transparent system panel, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrest as he browsed and pondered.

[Loan Name: Master-Level Elemental Wind Pattern (Quarterly Loan)]

[Repayment period: 90 days]

[Loan Details: Acquire Master-level Elemental Wind Patterns, increase the host's affinity for the wind element, accelerate the learning speed of wind elemental magic, and increase the power of wind elemental magic by 200%]

[Loan Task: Develop a Flight Spell]

Lucien's gaze lingered on the number "200%" for a moment.

He remembered the system's previous introduction to elemental runes, which listed the levels above advanced as master and grandmaster.

Master-level elemental runes are like a quarterly loan, so Grandmaster-level runes should correspond to a six-month loan?

The gap between advanced and master levels is quite large. Advanced magic runes amplify the power of corresponding elemental magic by 50%, which is already quite a lot, but compared to the 200% of master level, it's insignificant.

"Following this progression, the performance of Grandmaster-level magic runes might be even more exaggerated," Lucien muttered to himself, but didn't dwell on it further.

In fact, he valued the wind element rune itself more than its level.

Aside from the lightning element, he has collected three of the four basic elements—water, fire, earth, and wind—and all of them have reached the advanced level. He is only missing the wind element, which he has yet to collect.

Now all the elements are complete, and the wind element has jumped directly to the highest level of magic rune, completely surpassing the previous one.

Besides satisfying his desire to collect everything, he also had some expectations for the magic runes corresponding to the four basic elements.

Because the mastery and harmony of the four elements is the foundation of Alchemy.

The next step is to refine a simplified version of the Sorcerer's Stone, and now is the perfect time to complete the final piece of the four elemental magic runes puzzle and verify our previous conjectures.

"Ah Tong, you're as thoughtful as ever."

Lucien's gaze shifted to the line indicating the loan task.

"Develop a flight spell..."

The description was very short and concise, yet it still gave Lucien a bit of a headache.

The simpler the requirement, the harder it is to achieve.

In the current Wizarding World, wizards fly using devices such as brooms and magic carpets.

Relying solely on magical spells to defy the pull of gravity, break free from the earth, and embrace the sky...

Voldemort seems to have created a similar flight spell that allows flight without any equipment. As one of his trusted subordinates, Snape should have mastered it as well, but it's not appropriate for him to ask casually.

Moreover, the loan mission requires developing flight spells, not learning them; even if you get them from the Old Bat, they'll only serve as a reference.

Hmm, wind element and flight... As is customary, the rewards offered by loans are often linked to loan missions.

Perhaps this in itself is a hint—to use the power of the wind to fly into the sky?

Thinking of this, Lucien immediately thought of a Magical Creatures —one that could ride the wind and travel a thousand miles a day...

I wonder if Mr. Scamander has any big cats?

"I need to borrow money from a master-level elemental wind pattern."

[Ding! Loan application successful!]

[Comment: The freest wind should embrace the sky.]

The icons on the panel lit up, and a pale blue light slowly flowed around the "Master-level Elemental Wind Pattern".

Lucien felt a slight coolness on the tip of his ring finger. Looking down, he saw a thin, pale blue line emerging from his fingertip, like a trace left by the wind on his skin.

He moved his fingers, and the lines didn't disappear; they just flickered slightly with his movement.

Just as Lucien was about to get up and leave the studio to test the power of a master-level magic rune, his gaze fell on the next line.

The Emerald Tablet Fragment; the loan progress is 100%, but the project is still not closed.

Lucien paused, almost forgetting that while he was busy celebrating the system upgrade, he also needed to ask the Emerald Tablet about the loan bug.
