I Made Up Forbidden Spells, and They Actually Worked?

A series of rewards being distributed left Dean Bruce both surprised and delighted.

Hadn't he just urged Nicholas William a single day to learn the magic? And now, he had already grasped it?

And not only that, it also brought extra rewards to Dean Bruce?

If he urged him a few more times, wouldn't Nicholas master a new spell every couple of days? Then why would Dean Bruce need to work hard? Just relying on these rewards, he could improve rapidly!

If Shelly William knew what Dean Bruce was thinking, she would surely be frustrated enough to cough up blood.

Just thinking about the incantations for those two spells for Nicholas William had nearly made her head explode!

It's fortunate that she was in a spiritual form, or else her hair might have all fallen out from the sheer mental strain! It was so hard to think through!

Of course, Dean Bruce had no idea that Nicholas William's rapid mastery of magic was all due to the help of his ancient ancestor. He only thought that he should pass on even more magic to Nicholas William in the future, so he could feel his teacher's boundless affection.

Composing himself, Dean Bruce didn't check the rewards immediately. After all, he was still in the training room and had to continue his conversation with Herbert Jones.

Luckily, Herbert Jones had a pure heart. Even when he saw Dean Bruce pause suddenly, he didn't question it or become impatient. He just sat there quietly, his gaze never leaving Dean Bruce.

That, in turn, gave Dean Bruce quite a start when he snapped back to reality. Taking a deep breath, he said, "Did I lie to you earlier?"

"No!" Herbert Jones shook his head, grinning foolishly. "You're a good person, I trust you! If you're teaching me a spell to strengthen my body, I'll learn it!"

Dean Bruce began, "The new spell I want to teach you is called The Light of Dawn."

After a pause, his voice deepened: "You will be strong and unafraid; you will forget your troubles, recalling them only as waters that have passed by. Your days will shine brighter than the sun; though there may be darkness, it will be like the dawn."

Herbert Jones repeated the incantation, scratching his head, and said, "This time the spell is kinda long. How do I understand it?"

"Hm, seems... kinda hard!"

Seeing that Herbert Jones didn't instantly grasp it like before, Dean Bruce couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

But then, he thought again—being able to understand it at all was a good thing, and it didn't matter if it took a bit longer.

Besides, he had made up the spell's incantation completely out of thin air. Whether it could be mastered depended on luck, let alone the speed!

Thinking of this, Dean Bruce smiled and reassured him, "Difficult means stronger. Once you master it, the effect will be even greater than Thousand Mountains Fortress!"

"Mm!"

Herbert Jones nodded, then said, "I was going to ask you to practice with me, but now I need to focus on mastering that spell. Why don't you practice here in the training room for a while?"

"No problem, you focus on the magic. I'll keep myself busy."

Dean Bruce was happy with that. Having some time alone meant he could check the rewards he'd received earlier and experience the specific effects of the Thousand Mountains Fortress spell.

"Hehe, that's good then," Herbert Jones chuckled, turning and heading to the other side of the room. He sat on a mat, his expression one of deep thought.

Seeing this, Dean Bruce also found a spot to sit, closed his eyes, and pretended to meditate. In reality, he was summoning the system within his mind.

This time, the series of triggered rewards had allowed him to learn two new spells and gain tenfold strength and understanding.

He had also received 380 points of Supreme Mage power, one ten-draw lottery card, three regular lottery cards, and a Mind Refining Millstone.

[I'll hold onto the Supreme Mage points for now and see if saving up to 1000 points or more unlocks any new system features. As for the lottery cards, I'll use them now and check the rewards once they're all claimed.]

With this plan in mind, Dean Bruce used all of the lottery cards at once.

Ding!

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Disguiser Human Skin X1!"

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Enlightenment Tea Leaves X1!"

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Plum Blossom Throwing Darts X9!"

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Invisibility Spell Scroll X1!"

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Blank Magic Book X1!"

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Double Ice Arrow Spell Scroll X1!"

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Soul Capturing Bell X1!"

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Angel's Light X1!"

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Raging Fire Rain Spell Scroll X1!"

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Thunder Flash Spell Scroll X1!"

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Ginseng Fruit X1!"

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Multiple Wind Blade Spell Scroll X1!"

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have received Earth Wall Spell Scroll X1!"

As the string of notifications finished, Dean Bruce's eyes swept across the list, and excitement filled his face.

This lottery draw wasn't too bad at all! A total of five spell scrolls, and two of them had names that seemed like advanced magic spells.

The other rewards also looked decent just by their names.

But the one that stood out the most was the Ginseng Fruit!

Dean Bruce recalled reading Eastern myths in his past life, where there was a legendary item called Ginseng Fruit that could extend a person's lifespan. He wondered what kind of effects this Ginseng Fruit would have in his world.

With a deep breath, Dean Bruce eagerly checked the specific attributes of the rewards.

[Double Ice Arrow Spell Scroll]

[Upon activation, you can cast the basic spell Double Ice Arrow. If the host uses it five times, they will permanently learn this spell.]

[Thunder Flash Spell Scroll]

[Upon activation, you can cast the advanced spell Thunder Flash. If the host uses it five times, they will permanently learn this spell.]

[Invisibility Spell Scroll]

[Upon activation, you can cast the advanced spell Invisibility. If the host uses it five times, they will permanently learn this spell.]

[...]

The spell scrolls were as expected, nothing too surprising. However, when he came across the first special item, the Disguiser Human Skin, Dean Bruce's breath quickened with excitement.

[Disguiser Human Skin: By dripping a target's blood into the skin, the host can activate the item to take on the target's appearance and aura. The host will not gain their memories. Can only be used once.]

Although this item was a one-time-use tool, the ability to fully mimic someone's appearance and aura could prove invaluable in certain situations!

[Enlightenment Tea Leaves: When brewed and consumed, the user will experience heightened understanding for one day, enhancing their ability to comprehend magic, techniques, or swordsmanship.]

[Plum Blossom Throwing Darts: When thrown at a target, these darts inflict significant damage. Anyone below a mage's level will be instantly killed.]

[Soul Capturing Bell: When rung, it causes all individuals within 50 yards to enter a soulless state, unable to perceive anything or control their bodies. Consumes 10 mana points per second while active.]

[Angel's Light: Upon use, the user will be blessed with the protection of the Angel's Light, entering an invincible state for 300 seconds. During this time, no attack will hit the user, nor will they be affected by any magic.]

[Ginseng Fruit: After consumption, it permanently increases the user's lifespan by 20 years, along with a random bonus effect.]

After reading through these attributes, Dean Bruce's excitement was uncontrollable, and a wide grin spread across his face.

Aside from a few spell scrolls and the Blank Spellbook, which were of little use to him, everything else was excellent!

The Enlightenment Tea Leaves weren't particularly useful to Dean Bruce, since he didn't need to train; he just needed to guide others to comprehend magic for his own strength to increase. However, it could still be beneficial for his disciples, bringing them considerable advantages.

Dean Bruce opened his eyes and glanced at Herbert Jones, who was still deep in thought. Without any hesitation, he took out the Ginseng Fruit and, without a second look, swallowed it whole. Immediately, he felt a cool liquid flowing down his throat.

A peculiar power surged through him, like countless ants gnawing at his veins. The sensation was painful yet oddly tingling, leaving Dean Bruce almost unable to bear it.

Ding!

Fortunately, the feeling faded quickly, replaced by an overwhelming sense of strength!

"System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have successfully consumed Ginseng Fruit. Your lifespan has been extended by 20 years. Health points have increased by 300, and mana points have increased by 300!"

Clenching his fist, Dean Bruce opened his attribute panel, realizing just how much he had improved. With the boost from the Dragonheart Pendant and the absorption of various beast flesh, his stats had skyrocketed compared to before.

[Host: Dean Bruce]

[Level: Sixth-Tier Mage]

[Health: 375]

[Mana: 613]

[Mastered Spells: Thousand Mountains Fortress, The Compassion of Heaven and Earth, The Interrogation of the Soul, Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain, Blood for Blood…]

[Treasures: Dragonheart Pendant, Blue Shadow Ring]

[Supreme Mage Points: 1,270]

The system rewards were not included in his treasures list but were stored in a special system inventory. Even so, the current state of Dean Bruce's attribute panel showed a massive transformation.

His health and mana had increased by hundreds of times, and the list of spells he had mastered spanned two or three lines!

With Dean Bruce's attributes now, facing opponents of the same level would be a breeze. He could practically stand still and let them attack, and they likely wouldn't even be able to break through his physical defenses or cause any real harm!
