Two Worlds: I studied at Hogwarts
#198 - Just a finger
After Muen said the little girl had magical talent, Lu left with her young daughter.
Even though she was still skeptical of Muen's judgment, she didn't dare delay her daughter's future.
Especially after Ben explained that the same thing had happened in the Bailey family, this shaman immediately used [Wind Prayer] to sail a small boat away from Starlight Island with all her might.
The construction of Old Soldiers' Lane is still ongoing.
After repairing all the residences, the men divided into two groups, one to till new fields, and the other to prepare to build paper-making and printing workshops downstream of the river.
Naturally, Muen didn't have to worry about these things; Zalan and Hall had already taken on the corresponding responsibilities.
The women were tidying up their belongings in the new houses.
The children were playing in a large house at the entrance of the lane.
This was also where Muen planned to build the Old Soldiers' Lane school, with Mimir temporarily serving as the children's teacher.
Everything was proceeding according to Muen's plan.
At this time, Muen was in the house in the middle of the lane, beginning to study and organize his recent gains.
Because the three great shamans had great faith in his identity as the high priest's successor, all the witchcraft within the tribe had been opened to Muen.
Among them were the Tide Calling, Sand Control, and Whirlpool techniques of the Hailan tribe.
The Plant Healing, Wood Shaping, and Beast Repelling incantations of the Spirit Tree tribe.
And the Dream Weaving, Metal Melting, and Astrology techniques of the Starburst tribe.
Although the names of these witchcrafts were very simple, the content was very complex.
The prerequisite for Muen to learn them was to master the language of the tribesmen, as well as their written symbols.
In addition, he had to understand the beliefs, customs, history, and natural environment in which the tribesmen lived.
The creation of these witchcrafts was mostly closely related to the lives of the tribesmen, so these lessons could not be avoided.
For example, the Spirit Tree tribe's [Plant Healing] and [Wood Shaping] techniques were created by ancient priests based on the habits of various plants in the tribe.
Moreover, depending on the habits of each plant, the implementation of this witchcraft would vary.
Similarly, the Starburst tribe's [Metal Melting] technique was also the same.
As a branch of the tribe that specialized in making witch tools, they would use different witchcrafts when melting various metals.
For Muen, the only witchcraft that was relatively easy to learn was that of the Hailan tribe.
These witchcrafts, created specifically for combat, did not have any special requirements.
As long as one could learn them, then it was just a matter of constant practice and actual combat, until finally one could simplify the steps of casting the witchcraft.
From complex to simple, from slow to fast.
This was the inevitable path for tribal wizards to learn witchcraft.
However, what Muen wanted was not just this.
After obtaining these witchcrafts, Muen first learned the simpler ones, and then began to study the principles of their construction.
Of course, before that, he still had to learn the tribal language and writing.
Originally, the shaman Lu of the Spirit Tree tribe was responsible for teaching Muen the relevant knowledge.
However, this shaman had already left Starlight Island, so Lang of the Hailan tribe temporarily took up this task.
"High Priest, do you want to take a break? There aren't many tribal characters. At your rate, you might be able to learn them in less than a month."
Lang had never seen someone with such a good memory.
The recognition and application of more than a hundred complex characters was already ten days' worth of learning for ordinary people, but Muen only took one day.
More importantly, Muen had no errors in mastering these characters.
No matter which one was picked out, he could easily answer, without any mistakes.
After some testing, Lang felt that Muen's memory was more magical than magic.
"Okay, let's stop here for today."
Muen also felt a little tired.
In order to better understand these witchcrafts, he had been keeping his brain in that magical state while learning the tribal characters.
After this period of practice, Muen could easily enter this state, but maintaining it was still very mentally exhausting.
Every time he finished, Muen had to rest for a long time.
Just as Muen was about to take a break, the three great shamans of Star Island arrived at Starlight Island again.
Behind them were the shaman Lu who had left yesterday, and the little girl who Muen had judged to have magical talent.
Lu's eyes were swollen, as if she had just cried. After seeing Muen, she immediately bowed respectfully.
"Thank you, High Priest. Ya really has wizard talent. If you hadn't discovered it, she might have been buried."
Ya was Lu's young daughter.
After Muen discovered her magical talent yesterday, she immediately led Ya to find the Great Shaman of the Spirit Tree.
After some testing, Ya became the second young wizard in the tribe this year.
When the little girl Ya saw Muen, she sweetly called out, "High Priest Brother."
Yesterday, Ya wasn't clear why she was arranged for a second talent test, but when the Great Shaman solemnly announced that she possessed magical talent, the little girl opened her mouth wide in surprise.
On the way here, she was repeatedly told that the High Priest had discovered her talent and that she should be grateful.
When Muen saw the little girl saluting him, he just nodded slightly.
His eyes couldn't help but glance at the top of her head a few more times.
Compared to yesterday, there was a faint green mark on the little girl's forehead, and the wizard streaks had also grown slightly.
Although the increase was not large, it still surprised Muen that it only took one day.
He knew that there must be secrets in the tribe that he didn't know about.
Just as Muen was watching the little girl, the Spirit Tree Great Shaman Granny quickly stepped forward and tightly grabbed Muen's arm.
"Good child, good child, how did you discover that Ya has wizard talent?"
The Spirit Tree Great Shaman Granny was very excited.
Yesterday, when Lu led Ya back to Star Island to report this matter to her, the Spirit Tree Great Shaman initially didn't believe it much.
But thinking of Muen's identity as the successor to the High Priest, she decided to try it anyway.
After the sacrifice last night, she immediately tested Ya and then discovered that this little girl really had wizard talent.
This made the Spirit Tree Great Shaman excited, and she hurriedly asked someone to notify the great shamans of the other two tribes.
"That's right, High Priest, we didn't believe it yesterday, but Lu said that you just glanced at her and discovered Ya's talent. How is that possible, right?"
The Hailan Great Shaman also hurriedly came to Starlight Island.
He still couldn't figure out how Muen did it.
"You don't need to worry."
Muen slightly comforted the three great shamans, and then slowly opened his mouth.
"Actually, testing whether others can learn magic is just my talent, don't be so surprised."
"Talent?"
The Starburst Great Shaman asked curiously.
Among the three great shamans of the tribe, the Starburst Great Shaman was the one who had the most thorough research on tribal witchcraft.
But he had never heard of anyone having this kind of talent.
"That's right."
Muen nodded in response.
In the past, Muen had never thought that his ability could help others discover magical talent.
All along, he had used wizard streaks to determine the strength of a mage.
Now it seemed that the ability of wizard streaks was far more than that.
"Can you detect other people's wizard talent?"
The Hailan Great Shaman didn't care what Muen's talent was all about, he just wanted to know if this ability worked for others as well.
"It should be fine."
Muen recalled that he had not yet discovered anyone with wizard streaks among ordinary people.
"That's good, come with me, there's a boatload of children waiting for you to examine!"
The Hailan Great Shaman said, grabbing Muen's arm and walking towards the small pier.
Today, it wasn't just them who came to Starlight Island, but also all the children of eligible age on the entire Star Island.
This was the eight hundred and thirty-one children of eligible age who were gathered overnight after the great shamans learned that Ya had talent last night.
Noticing that the three great shamans led the High Priest back to the boat, the children who had been in a chaotic mess on the deck immediately became quiet.
They all looked forward with burning eyes, as if waiting for the verdict of fate.
The great shamans had no intention of caring about the thoughts of these children, they were just quietly watching Muen.
"What do you need to do? Do you need to cast some magic and have them line up one by one?"
After Muen stood still, the Hailan Great Shaman asked eagerly.
"No, I'll just take a look."
"Take a look?"
The three great shamans exchanged glances.
Although they had already heard about Muen's method of identification from Lu yesterday, they still couldn't believe it without seeing it with their own eyes.
Just as they were still hesitating, Muen had already raised his hand and pointed to the young wizards in the crowd.
"Him!"
"Him!"
"Her!"
