“Did I transmigrate? What’s going on?”

Linley Bart clearly remembered that he had skipped class today and the last he recalled, he was sleeping in his room.

Who knew that he would end up in such an unfamiliar place when he woke up?

This place was definitely foreign to him. The interior of the house was decorated in a traditional style.

He thought that he was being pranked and was moved to a set in Hollywood.

There might be a camera coming out later to take a photo of his face, right?

Linley told himself that he wasn’t going to fall for it. He began to shout loudly, “Everyone, come out! Stop with the prank!”

However, no one responded to him. After that, he realized something terrifying.

His tattoo was missing.

Without the tattoo, he was sure that this body wasn’t his. Also, he never ever had such tender skin.

Linley Bart suddenly thought of a possibility.

Could he have transmigrated?

He liked to read novels and often had dreams about such a thing happening to him. However, he found it hard to accept when he had really encountered such an incident.

The environment here was much like that of the medieval era. There were no traces of the modern buildings in sight.

Suddenly, he felt a splitting headache.

It seems that I’m still hurt. There are still some bruises on my arm.

Not quite believing it, he went to touch his wound.

The moment he touched the wound, the intense pain proved to him that this was reality. He no longer doubted that he had transmigrated!

At this moment, a piece of memory was suddenly inserted into his mind.

Linley Bart. This person had the same name as him. However, in this world, he was the son of a Duke in the Raymond Empire, a hereditary noble!

He was currently still a student and was a freshman at the only sorcery academy in the empire.

His father was Duke Bart. Given Linley’s poor talent in magic, there was no way he would have had the chance to join the sorcery academy in the Raymond Empire.

But because of his father’s contributions to the Empire, Linley had been allowed to join the sorcery academy to study.

In this world, it was a great honor to become a sorcerer, no matter whether one was a noble or a commoner.

Once a commoner became an official sorcerer, they would be promoted to a noble very quickly, but such an opportunity was a rarity for commoners.

It was only at the Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy that commoners saw hope in becoming a mage. As long as they passed the examination, whether they were a commoner or a noble, they could study magic at the Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy.

This gave hope to countless commoners.

If one wanted to become a mage in the past, one had to be a noble.

The magic knowledge passed down from ancient times was monopolized by the nobles and the Church.

Some noble families had become sorcerer families because their family had studied sorcery for generations. The magic books and experiences passed down by such sorcery families could lower the threshold for their descendants to become sorcerers.

Only those who were considered pure-blooded nobles were qualified to learn the secrets of sorcery.

Until now, sorcery was synonymous with nobles.

Although sorcery was powerful, it was also accompanied by danger. If one was not careful, they would lose control of the power. In the past, it was only passed down through word of mouth, causing it to be very easy for it to lose its heritage.

Wars happened frequently on the continent, and sorcerers often participated in the war as weapons of the country.

Once a precious sorcerer died in battle, the heritage of that sorcerer would be lost forever.

To prevent the end of the magic era, every country signed the “Sorcery Covenant”.

It forbade high-level mages from participating in the war, and at the same time, a “Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy” was established to pass on magical knowledge to the later generations.

The importance of this sorcery academy was self-evident. The college had taught almost all the sorcerers on the continent and had the most perfect sorcery education system.

According to their strength, sorcerers in the academy were divided into the following ranks:

Apprentice Sorcerer.

Elementary Sorcerer.

Intermediate Sorcerer.

Advanced Sorcerer.

Grand Sorcerer.

Magister.

Great Magister.

Holy Magister.

…

Among these eight ranks, Magisters and above were forbidden from participating in the Empire War in any form to prevent them from unleashing world-destroying magic that would result in irreversible major damage.

This also showed how powerful sorcerers were.

However, ever since there was a sorcery academy, magic had slowly spread to the commoners.

Although most people did not have talent sorcery, the whole world was enthusiastic about practicing it. However, compared to the sorcery academy, the sorcery knowledge that the commoners knew was too insignificant.

In this world of sorcery, as long as one had the strength, they would have everything. The larger kingdoms swallowed the smaller kingdoms, and the wars that relied on sorcery became cruel and bloody. Whoever could control more sorcerers would have a higher chance of winning on the battlefield.

Under the influence of sorcery, the Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy became the key to influencing the power structure across the continent.

After the students had graduated from the academy, they would choose the Empire they would like to go to. Whichever Empire that managed to attract the most sorcerers would definitely become the overlord of the continent.

Linley Bart was a member of this academy. He had a vague understanding of what had happened in his memories. He hadn’t imagined that this was actually a world of sorcery, but based on what he had seen in the previous Linley Bart’s memories, this seems to be the case.

He was merely a noble who only knew how to eat, drink, and play all day long. He had relied on his father’s reputation to come to the academy and had a very low sorcery talent.

It could be said that with his talent in sorcery, he might not be able to become an Advanced Sorcerer even if he spent his entire life practicing hard.

The new students who just entered the magic academy were not even an Apprentice Sorcerer. They could only be considered Trainee Apprentice Sorcerer.

Even if one failed the sorcery test, one would not be expelled. However, one would remain as a Trainee Apprentice Sorcerer until one quit voluntarily.

But who would be willing to be a Trainee Apprentice Sorcerer for the rest of their lives?

The glory of becoming a sorcerer would be passed down from generation to generation. This was because as long as there was a sorcerer among one’s ancestors, one would definitely have a talent for sorcery in one’s bloodline. However, whether or not it could be triggered depended on one’s own efforts.

The Bart clan had indeed produced quite a few sorcerers, but when it came to Linley, he was completely unable to sense the existence of magic power in him. This was an extremely cruel reality, and it showed that Linley was not suited to be a sorcerer.

“What should I do?” Linley Bart had a bad feeling.

As if in response, a voice reached his ears.

“Ding! Treasure Chest System bound!”
