Kidney deficiency, sometimes it's due to overwork... ah no, got it wrong, let's restart!
Social death, sometimes it's after being overly arrogant.
This sentence best illustrates Sharlot's current situation.
If possible.
He wanted to go back half a minute ago.
And slap himself hard for wanting to use the cloak of undead.
He would yell at him.
"No, buddy?
You're currently in the New York Sanctum!
Still within the jurisdiction of Kamar-Taj!
Why are you showing off for no reason!
If you want to play with the cloak of undead, at least go back to the Dark Dimension to play!
Now look, you've been caught red-handed, haven't you?
It's over, I'm done for!"
His thoughts returned to the present.
Sharlot looked at the Sorcerer Ancient One, whose expression was becoming more 'kindly,' and Mordo and Old Wang, who were looking menacing behind her.
He quickly transformed the cloak of undead into a short-sleeved shirt with a skull pattern.
He replied weakly.
"Uh, what, I said I was just going through a chuunibyou phase just now.
Talking nonsense.
Do you believe it?"
The Sorcerer Ancient One walked up to Sharlot with a fake smile.
She lifted Sharlot up as easily as picking up a chick.
She laughed like a cat playing with a mouse.
"What do you think...?"
...Soon.
About ten minutes passed.
Under the Sorcerer Ancient One's questioning.
Sharlot, like pouring beans, spilled out the whole story.
Of course, while concealing the system.
After the initial brief period of guilt and fear.
Sharlot didn't actually feel much psychological burden when recounting what had just happened.
After all.
This matter of his was neither big nor small.
It fell within the ambiguous category.
Because if you think about it carefully.
You can find out.
Sharlot didn't actually do anything heinous, did he?
Did he, like some evil Dark Magician, cause widespread destruction within Kamar-Taj?
No!
He was reluctant to cast Hell's Gate in Kamar-Taj's training ground, and even stopped halfway through.
It was Mordo who insisted that Sharlot continue to cast it.
If you want to talk about responsibility, Mordo definitely takes the blame!
Moreover.
Even if Hell's Gate was opened.
He didn't let any Dark Creatures invade Kamar-Taj, did he?
Those Dark Creatures were all separated by Hell's Gate, never stepping a foot into Kamar-Taj.
So, in the end, this was just a large display screen showing the scenery of the Dark Dimension.
It wasn't anything dangerous.
As for himself wearing the cloak of undead just now, saying he was a Dark Magician and wanted to rule Kamar-Taj.
That's even easier to explain.
Can't Sharlot just say he got carried away and was just spouting nonsense?
Does spouting nonsense mean it's your true inner thought?
Then you watch live streams of young women dancing suggestively every day, and spout nonsense in the comments, constantly spamming 'wife, wife'.
Do you really think she's your wife?
Those who spam comments like "show me your legs" or "show me your outfit"?
Do you really want to see the young woman's legs, see her sexy outfit?
Oh, well.
That's actually true!
Ahem... leaving that aside.
Let's talk about Kamar-Taj as a whole.
Who has the most formidable Dark Magic?
That would definitely be the Sorcerer Ancient One!
Sharlot has only used Dark Magic for less than half an hour at most.
But you, the Sorcerer Ancient One, have been using it for thousands of years, haven't you!
When it comes to who is a Dark Magician, the Sorcerer Ancient One is the most qualified to be chosen, aren't you!
What's the deal?
I've only cast Dark Magic three times at most, and I'm going to be lectured by you, an old woman who has cast Dark Magic for thousands of years?
Only the powerful are allowed to set fires, while the common people are forbidden to light lamps?
That's not how it works!
..."So, you're saying you didn't even know you were using Dark Magic.
You always thought you were casting a White magic Portal?
And temporarily escaping was because you saw Mordo's unusual behavior, and having just joined Kamar-Taj, you were afraid of being punished?
As for what you said just now, it was purely just spouting nonsense?"
The Sorcerer Ancient One looked at Sharlot.
She scrutinized him with a judging gaze.
Seeing this.
Sharlot quickly nodded like a chick pecking rice.
"Mhm, that's right.
That's how it is!"
Mordo saw Sharlot putting on that honest, harmless act again.
He immediately became anxious.
Pointing at Sharlot, he quickly said.
"Nuh-uh-uh-uh!
Sorcerer Ancient One, look at him!
He's playing innocent again, isn't he!"
Just now, he was fooled by Sharlot with this trick.
This time, he would never be deceived again.
Looking at Mordo's aggressive demeanor.
The Sorcerer Ancient One didn't really follow his words and make things difficult for Sharlot.
After all.
She had just seen Sharlot's past through the eye of agamotto.
This child was indeed learning magic for the first time.
He wasn't, as Mordo had guessed, some evil Dark Magician who infiltrated Kamar-Taj to cause trouble.
However... Sharlot was indeed a variable in the future.
Because even when peering into the eye of agamotto, all she saw was his past.
She couldn't see his future!
For such an inscrutable person.
The Sorcerer Ancient One felt that preparations still needed to be made.
So.
She extended her right hand forward.
She activated her magic of retrieval.
She pulled out a golden book from the void.
It was precisely the Vishanti Meditation Technique!
The Sorcerer Ancient One handed it to Sharlot, saying in a gentle voice.
"Sharlot, I believe you are a good child.
The reason you cultivated the White magic Portal to have a Dark Magic aura.
Perhaps it was due to some error during your magic cultivation."
"Therefore, this Vishanti Meditation Technique is specially prepared for you!"
"Its greatest benefit is that it can calm your mind and body, thereby establishing a connection with the Vishanti, the three-in-one God."
"This will allow you to acquire more White magic energy."
"Sharlot, this time, please learn this Meditation Technique in front of me."
"Don't worry, if there are any errors, I will personally help you adjust them."
The Sorcerer Ancient One smiled.
She gestured for Sharlot to relax.
Indicating that she still had trust in him.
After all.
Putting everything else aside.
Sharlot's talent in magic was truly astonishing!
In just ten minutes, he was able to open a Portal.
This was even more outrageous than she was back then!
So.
Even if the eye of agamotto couldn't see Sharlot's future.
Ancient One felt that as long as he was properly guided.
He might very well become a formidable general for Kamar-Taj against the Dark Dimension!
Looking at the Sorcerer Ancient One's kind smile and benevolent expression.
Sharlot secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew.
With Ancient One.
He had passed the test.
So.
After a simple thank you.
He took the Vishanti Meditation Technique and prepared to begin cultivating.
And just then.
The system's voice resounded in his mind again.
[Ding!]
[Detected that the host is cultivating the Vishanti Meditation Technique!]
[Automatically adjusted to Dimensional Demon God Meditation Technique!]
[Ding!]
[Your existence has been noticed by the Dark Lord Dormammu!]
[Ding!]
[You will receive Dormammu's blessing!]
[Please prepare!]
Sharlot: ????
