Chapter 108 The Ability to Excavate the Seven-Colored Dragon Scales
However, Elise's attempt failed.
Elise's figure passed through the afterimage, then she quickly turned back to look at it again, saying, "You despicable wizard, what have you done! Why can't I touch my grandfather!"
"Your grandfather is already dead, so naturally you can't touch him."
Upon hearing this, Elise opened her mouth, pointed at the illusory figure, and said, "Then who is this?"
"This was created using necromancy; it's the materialization of your grandfather's soul. This spell allows communication with the dead," Leo said, then added, "Do you know anyone here?"
The phantom pointed to Elise and said, "Yes, this is my granddaughter."
"Grandpa!" Elise exclaimed in surprise, "It's me, it's Elise!"
The phantom ignored Elise.
A flash of anger crossed Elise's eyes as she said, "You despicable wizard, what do you intend to do by summoning my grandfather's soul!"
Leo said, "Hmm... what was I doing... back then, the shoemaker Kemp called what I was doing as toying with the dead."
Hearing Leo's nonchalant statement, Elise said, "Uncle Kemp is right. You're just toying with the soul of the dead. Release my grandfather now and let his soul find peace."
Leo said, "Don't worry, I don't intend to do anything to your grandfather's soul. I just want to release it so you know that I possess this kind of magic."

"You..." Elise looked at Leo with eyes that seemed to be burning with anger.
Elise gritted her teeth and said, "Are you trying to use my grandfather to blackmail me into becoming a wizard?"
Elise could only think of this possibility.
However, Leo smiled and said, "I'm not interested in whether you can become a wizard."
Leo said, "Of course, whether you can become a wizard or not is irrelevant to me. But I do need you to do something for me, and that requires you to have 10 points of mental energy and outstanding academic performance."
Tesla, who had been watching quietly, had a glint of anticipation in his eyes when he heard Leo say that.
Although Tesla had given up on Elise, he was naturally happy that things had taken a turn for the better.
Right now, he has a feeling that Leo might actually be able to persuade Elise to embark on the path of a wizard.
Leo stood in front of Iris, and even though Iris stood up, in Leo's eyes it was no different from an adult looking at a child.
Leo said, "The spell I'm about to cast requires a part of the deceased's body."
Elise narrowed her eyes slightly, realizing the crux of the problem, and said, "So, without the body of the deceased, you can't cast this spell?"
Leo gave an affirmative answer: "That's right."
Elise is actually quite clever.
Although she was a bit stubborn, she had already picked up on the implication in Leo's words.
Elise said, "You despicable wizard, you need me to reach 10 points of mental energy, and you also need me to have achievements in my field of study. If I can do those things, will you return my grandfather's remains to me?"
"That's not enough. You need to win the Rising Star title this year. If you can win the Rising Star title this year, I will return the part of your grandfather's remains that I took away to you."
Elise said, "It's a deal!"
Elise then looked at Tesla and said, "You... wizard, remove these vines. I swear I won't attack or do anything that you can't accept."
Tesla quickly retracted the vines.
Even if Elise makes any moves afterward, Tesla can easily suppress her.
Elise rubbed her aching wrist and asked, "What's your name?"
She stared intently at Leo, and said these words to him.
"Leo Danville."
"Fine, Leo. I've remembered you. If you don't return my grandfather's body to me and instead wantonly defile it, I will absolutely not let you off the hook!"
Leo was completely unfazed by Elise's harsh words.
Leo looked at Tesla and said, "Tesla Wizard, I'll leave it to you to instruct Ms. Elise from now on."
"Of course, it's simply my duty." Tesla looked at Leo and said, "I should thank you for this. I never expected you to actually come up with a way to get her to continue on the path of a wizard."
"I was just giving it a try," Leo said modestly.
In fact, he wasn't just giving it a try.
From the moment he conceived the plan to have Elise win the title of Rising Star, Leo had been pondering how to persuade her to embark on the path of a wizard.
In the end, this was the only way to threaten Elise by exploiting her weakness.
In terms of the result, Leo was satisfied.
What if Elise doesn't continue down the path of wizardry after becoming a rising star?
That's not within Leo's consideration.
Once Elise becomes a rising star, Leo's goal will be achieved; the rest is up to Tesla and the others to worry about.
After reaching an agreement with Elise, Leo returned to his room.
The training of magic has basically come to an end.
Leo also had extra time to consider other subjects.
Leo's fingertips slid down, revealing seven-colored dragon scales.
Consumes 500 Refinement Points.
Seven-Colored Dragon Scales
Quality: Common. Function: Scales from the ancient dragon species Rainbow Dragon, possessing the ability to detect malice. Cost: 1000 Refinement Points. Materials included in the encyclopedia, which Leo can study to explore their abilities more deeply.
However, the illustrations of the Seven-Colored Dragon Scales are very obscure and difficult to understand.
When he first became a wizard, Leo was unable to study in depth.
Now that Leo's mental energy has increased to over 40 points, he feels he can try to explore other abilities.
As Leo began his studies.
The seven-colored dragon scales began to be displayed from a first-person perspective.
Learning from this perspective, Leo began to gain a deeper understanding of the seven-colored dragon scales.
Compared to the previous demonstrations, some of the previously obscure content has gradually become easier to understand.
This shows that the enhancement of Leo's spiritual energy is also helpful for this kind of learning.
At school, Leo gradually came to understand some of the other functions of the Seven-Colored Dragon Scales.
Sensing hostility is only one of its functions; the seven-colored dragon scales also possess other functions.
It can resist the effects of prophetic spells to a certain extent.
Leo had personally experienced the function of the Rainbow Dragon Scales when he met Barbara, the shopkeeper, at the Woodpecker's Hut.
In addition to these two abilities, Leo also mastered another function of the seven-colored dragon scale during this training: to materialize prophetic spells.
Prophecy spells are invisible, silent, and colorless when cast. Even a wizard who is proficient in divination cannot guarantee that he will not be affected or interfered with when he encounters a prophecy spell.
Being able to materialize prophetic spells is similar to sensing the casting of prophetic spells, which is definitely a very good ability.
