Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots Chapter 1300 - 519: The Problem Class
Previously on Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots...
Ron sat alone on the balcony of his temporary residence, beginning his routine meditation cultivation.
As the "Star Eater’s Ravings" started operating, he immediately sensed a noticeable abnormality.
The process of his consciousness reaching out to the stars became exceptionally difficult, like observing the starry sky through a thick veil.
The star links that were usually clear were now becoming blurred and indistinct.
"Just as Vinard said, the magic environment of the Otherworld indeed affects cultivation efficiency."
Ron carefully felt the flow speed of the magic power in his body and discovered that the compression progress was about thirty percent slower than in the Main World.
The growth of spiritual power was also correspondingly affected.
But strangely, the impact was not as severe as expected.
According to common rules, in such a low magic environment, cultivation efficiency should decrease by more than half.
However, his "Star Eater’s Ravings" seemed to have an unusual adaptability to environmental changes.
"Perhaps it’s because the essence of this meditation technique is to establish a direct link with the distant stars."
He analyzed in his mind:
"The dependence on the surrounding environment’s magic concentration is indeed much lower than other meditation techniques, which is an unexpected advantage."
Just as Ron was immersed in the insights of cultivation, a familiar silver shadow appeared beside him.
Aselia’s dragon shadow looked much more illusory than usual, with its contours somewhat unstable.
"Oh, I thought you had disappeared."
Ron opened his eyes, with a teasing tone:
"Haven’t seen you for so many days, did you sneak off to other places for a vacation?"
"Vacation?" Aselia rolled her eyes in annoyance:
"Do you think I’m a little girl going to the beach to sunbathe?"
Her dragon tail displeasedly patted the air:
"It’s all because of this damn low magic environment.
It’s hard for me to maintain my form now, let alone manifest as freely as before."
"Moreover," Aselia lowered her voice:
"Vinard’s perception is much sharper than I imagined.
Every time I slightly solidify, I can feel his faint probing."
"That feeling is like being repeatedly scanned by a precision scanner. It’s really uncomfortable."
Ron couldn’t help but laugh:
"The mighty Ancient Dragon Race, actually scared into hiding by a Great Wizard?"
"Hmph, what do you know."
Aselia proudly raised her dragon head:
"This is called strategic concealment, not hiding."
"Alright, alright, strategic concealment."
Ron continued to tease her:
"So, what did you gain from the ’strategic reconnaissance’ these days?"
Aselia’s expression became serious:
"To be honest, Vinard’s design of this colony is indeed exquisite. On the surface, it appears as harmonious coexistence of multiple races, but in reality, every detail is calculated meticulously."
She pointed in the direction of the Tree of Life in the distance:
"The Three-eyed Race is responsible for perception, the Danasu Race for purification, and the Stove Star People for production.
Each race is positioned in the most suitable place, allowing them to fully use their talents without threatening the overall structure."
"But it also means that once a single link goes wrong, the whole system could collapse."
Ron nodded: "Are you worried about the vulnerability of this model?"
"Not only that."
Aselia’s voice became deeper:
"I’ve also observed that these mixed-blood descendants, although they have acquired the talents of different races, are also suffering from an identity crisis."
"They are neither fully accepted by pure-blood races nor able to integrate into human society. This marginalized state makes them heavily dependent on Vinard."
"Is that a good thing or a bad thing?" Ron inquired.
"For Vinard, it’s certainly a good thing, as he gains absolutely loyal followers."
Aselia shook her head: "But for these children... "
"They’ve lost the possibility of independently choosing their life paths."
Ron nodded thoughtfully. It was indeed a matter worth pondering.
"However, this is also your opportunity."
Aselia shifted her tone:
"If you can guide these children in the right way, helping them establish a healthy self-awareness, you can counterbalance Vinard’s influence to some extent."
"Speaking of guidance."
A cunning glint appeared in her eyes: "I suggest you use the ’resonance’ technique more in teaching."
"How exactly should I do that?"
"Simply put, first understand, then guide."
Aselia explained:
"What these mixed-blood children lack most is the feeling of being understood. If you can truly understand their troubles and desires, and then provide help in a way they can accept, the effect will be far better than forced indoctrination."
"For example, don’t directly tell them what to do, but help them discover what they want, then guide them to find a way to achieve it."
"This way, you can help them grow without making Vinard feel you’re disrupting his plans."
Ron carefully noted these suggestions:
"You’re right. Looks like I’ll need to design tomorrow’s first class carefully."
"One more thing." Aselia reminded:
"Don’t underestimate these children’s insight. Though their mixed-blood identity brings trouble, it also makes them especially sensitive to changes in human emotions."
"If you want to gain their trust, you must show genuine sincerity, not just surface-level care."
The two of them continued discussing the details of teaching strategies until Aselia’s form became even more illusory due to the lack of energy.
"Alright, I need to rest."
She yawned:
