————〈Magic Circuit〉.

That is the innate source of magic power that all magicians are born with, the simulated nerves within a magician's body that determine their potential.

It can convert life force into the fuel required to perform magic, generating magical power, which is the most important thing for a magician.

Without it, not only would it be impossible to use magic normally, but even becoming a magician would be out of the question.

Even with it, the quality of the Magic Circuit determines a magician's talent.

After all, it is the nerve used to generate magical power.

The better the quality, the more powerful the generated magical power.

The greater the quantity, the more substantial the generated magical power.

Therefore, the better the quality of the Magic Circuit, the more skilled a magician will be.

Unfortunately, the Magic Circuit is something determined at birth, not a physical entity but a matter decided by the soul, and it cannot be increased by external factors.

In other words, a magician's potential is determined at birth and cannot be changed.

To produce excellent Magic Circuits, countless magicians have racked their brains, ultimately only being able to accumulate bloodlines and mate with partners who have excellent Magic Circuits, so that their descendants can inherit better talents and increase the number of Magic Circuits in their children.

This is also the reason for the emergence of so-called "noble families" and "aristocrats" in the world of magic.

The more ancient the noble family, the more excellent the accumulated magician bloodline, and the higher the potential of their descendants.

The Olga Marie family is a noble family with at least several hundred to a thousand years of accumulated magician bloodline, and their potential as magicians is extremely high.

Compared to Olga Marie, Luo Zhen is not from a noble family. In the world of magicians, he is a wild boy.

However, Luo Zhen was born with an extremely excellent Magic Circuit, and his talent is not inferior to Olga Marie's, even subtly surpassing her.

Now, Luo Zhen activated the Magic Circuit within his body, making the magical power accumulated within him start to flow.

"Buzz..."

It was a sensation like an electric shock.

Under this sensation, the Magic Circuit imprinted on Luo Zhen's soul, like an electrical circuit in operation, generated a current called magical power and gathered it at the tip of his fingers according to his will.

Then, Luo Zhen used his fingertips, which emitted magical power, to draw patterns on the ground.

In the next second, the magic was activated.

"Clang!"

The pattern carved on the ground became a part of the magic array, allowing light to leak out between Luo Zhen's fingers.

If there were a third party present, they would notice that the light and the scale of the pattern were very similar to the scene when the Heroic Spirit Summoning System was activated and the Servant was summoned.

Then, a "miracle" that ordinary people cannot perform appeared in this world.

"Chirp!"

It was the sound of birds.

The magic pattern carved on the ground seemed to become a gateway to another world, allowing small birds to fly out from the light and gather above Luo Zhen.

Luo Zhen opened his eyes, looking at the flock of birds flapping their wings in the air, and smiled with satisfaction.

"A magician who can summon so many familiars at once, there are probably very few in Chaldea, right?"

This was both confidence and fact.

It must be mentioned here.

As a magician, Luo Zhen is undoubtedly first-rate.

However, the types of magic are diverse and even divided into many systems.

Many magical families exhaust the magic of one system and pass it down generation after generation, hoping that their descendants will inherit their research and eventually reach the root of magic, understand the truth, and achieve omnipotence.

As for Luo Zhen, if his talent as a magician is first-rate, then his talent in one system of magic is truly astonishing.

That is the "summoning" system.

In the aspect of summoning, for some reason, Luo Zhen possesses a talent beyond the imagination of outsiders, and his control and command of summoned beings are also superhuman, as if he was born to learn the art of summoning, which is quite terrifying.

This is why Olga Marie is so angry at Luo Zhen's laxness. One of the reasons is that Luo Zhen has such astonishing talent but does not diligently train his magic, instead spending all day playing games and browsing websites.

This kind of waste of talent is almost a sin, and the more ancient the magical family, the less they can forgive such behavior.

What makes Olga Marie even more unable to accept is that the summoning system is extremely important for the existence of Chaldea.

The summoning of Heroic Spirits.

The command of Servants.

The control of familiars.

These are all the most important qualifications for a Master.

In this aspect, Luo Zhen, with his unparalleled talent, naturally became the most outstanding candidate in Chaldea.

Not only does he have an astonishing aptitude for spirit transfer, but he is also proficient in summoning magic, and his qualifications as a Master are exceptionally high. For Chaldea, an existence like Luo Zhen is a treasure among treasures.

This makes Olga Marie even less able to forgive Luo Zhen's wasteful behavior.

Thus, the conflict between Luo Zhen and Olga Marie is so intense, almost leading to arguments every time they meet, with no room for compromise.

Of course, for Luo Zhen, Olga Marie's anger seems unreasonable.

"Even if I waste it, it's my business, what does it have to do with that person?"

Saying this, Luo Zhen also harbored a suppressed emotion.

Unconsciously, his mind began to recall.

Recalling the pure white room.

Recalling the pungent smell of medicine.

Recalling the cold instruments.

Recalling the uncomfortable bed.

Then...

"——Why am I thinking about these things?"

Luo Zhen quickly shook his head, dispelling all the unpleasant memories, took a deep breath, and refocused his mind.

"Scatter!"

With a wave of his hand, the flock of birds hovering in the air immediately dispersed, flying in all directions of the forest with pleasant chirping.

Luo Zhen closed his eyes, felt for a moment, and finally turned to look at the Servant who had been obediently waiting in place since being summoned.

"Follow me."

After issuing a brief command, Luo Zhen walked in one direction of the forest.

Behind him, the Servant, like a shadow, followed silently, stepping on the fallen leaves and branches, moving forward together.

If it were a normal Servant, they would not be so obedient.

They have their own will and values, and it is not strange for them to conflict with their Master and disobey their instructions.

But if it is a Servant without consciousness, it is just an obedient combat tool.

"I really want to command a real Servant and see what it feels like."

With this sigh, Luo Zhen, along with the shadow Servant behind him, disappeared into a corner of the forest.
