Billy.
Batson is running.Do everything in one's power.The kid was out of breath.But this time, no one was chasing him.Chasing him is something much more difficult to describe...
Time.He jumped on the subway, gulping down his breath as he raised his wrist.On his wrist, there is a watch that is not expensive, it was a birthday present from his other 6 "siblings" last night.Today is his birthday.It's been a month since he moved into his new home.This time he was surprisingly well-behaved, did not run away from the foster family again, and got along well with the new family.Of course, in addition to the fact that the atmosphere of this foster home is really warm and does make 15-year-old Billy feel at ease, there is another important reason.Very, very important reasons."
Four minutes to go," Billy looked up at the beating hands, looking up at the ever-changing runes above the subway car.Beside him, the figures of the passengers sitting in the subway dissipated like smoke, and a layer of frost also covered the glass of the carriage, which was a very strange scene.But Billy didn't care.The child stared at the watch on his wrist.He couldn't be late any longer.His magic mentor was a very knowledgeable, but also very stern man.If he was late again, he would definitely suffer."
Bang" crashes into the rocks as the subway into another world as usual, and the door opens in front of Billy's eyes.The boy grabbed his crossbody bag and rushed out, running down the trail.Finally, in the last 15 seconds, he rushed into the temple of the Eternal Rock.He picked up the bracelet wrapped around his wrist and lifted it into the air, stammering some intricate incantation.It's like a rookie who is new to magic.The magic that pervades the entire Eternal Rock is mobilized.The invisible wind howled around the red cross in Billy's hand, and the dark shadows converged before Billy's eyes as the Horcrux was filled with magic.The shadow opened like a curtain, and the expressionless Merlin hovered in front of Billy's eyes like a ghost.He looked at the child standing up straight in front of him, and he said, "You're late... 5 seconds. ”"I'm sorry, mentor."
With Billy looking down, he said, "I was last night...
Uh, forget it, I won't be next time. ”"You say that every time."
Merlin's tone was emotionless, like a relentless reprimanding machine.He landed on the ground in a very light posture, he put his hands behind his back, and said to Billy in front of him: "You want to be a qualified spellcaster, you want to use the divine power in your body better, you don't want to disappoint old Shazam...""
But unfortunately, in this real world, only ideas are not enough, you have to put them into action.""
You've got talent, you've got potential, and you're lucky, but luck won't save you every time, you have to be more demanding!""
I'm sorry, mentor."
Billy gritted his teeth and said, "I've got a watch, and I won't be late tomorrow." ”"Don't make promises, especially if it's hard to guarantee that promises will be fulfilled."
Merlin glanced at the child, who had his head down, and he shook his head.He said, "Grab your drawing pen and we'll learn the Sleeping Charm today...
Also, happy birthday, Billy. ”"Huh?"
Butson jerked his head up, he looked at Merlin, a fleeting smile flashed across his face, and he said with a cold face, "What are you doing in a daze!"
You only have 3 hours to learn this magic!
Fast!
”Merlin's voice whipped at Billy like a whip.Let the child quickly take out the drawing pen and drawing board from his bag.Before his eyes, Merlin, who had only appeared in the world by relying on the magic of the Eternal Rock, waved his finger, and a relatively uncomplicated mana model was sketched.A new day of classes has begun.3 hours a day, a magic every day, and a fight every day.That's Billy.
Batson's new life.The mysterious knowledge made him linger, and the new world that appeared before his eyes made the child cheer.His life is changing.With a new family, he unexpectedly gained a strong divine power, and he also had a mysterious magic teacher.His life is getting better, and maybe it will get better and better in the future.On the other side, Billy.
The subway Batson had been on had finally arrived.After the doors opened, the passengers who sat at the terminal got off one after another.In the middle of the crowd, a tall lady in a long trench coat and a peaked cap strolled out.She put her hands in her pockets, and in the crowd, she looked back at the empty subway, and a trace of doubt and loss flashed in her blue eyes."
Lost again."
Icarus shook her head, and she strode towards the exit of the subway station.She's been stalking Billy these days.
Batson, trying to follow the kid and find Merlin's hiding location.But every time she fails.It doesn't matter if it's a taxi, a bus or a subway.The child would disappear silently at a time that Icarus wouldn't even notice.Even if Icarus used the high-speed camera in his eyes to shoot the whole time, he still couldn't catch the trace of Batson's disappearance.It was clear that there was some mysterious force influencing him and those around him.Even if it's a smart machine, it will be affected by that power."
Merlin..."
Icarus walked out of the subway station, she glanced at the street in front of her, she reached out to stop a taxi, she said, "You guy, you hide so deeply...""
But, as long as there is peace."
————————————“stupefy！
(Sleepy Curse!)
）”Two hours later, in the Temple of the Eternal Rock, Billy's hand is dancing.He poured the magic power in his body into the mana model he had built with his fingertips, and after a gentle shake, a thin ray of light burst out from his fingertips.The light shot out in the direction of Billy's gaze, hitting the glass fish tank that had been placed at the edge of the temple.A weird, caterpillar-eyed bug trapped there was hit by the light.It shook its head in confusion, then crawled a few steps before lying on the rock.It fell asleep."
Yay!"
Seeing this scene, Batson cheered in surprise and jumped up from the spot like a real child."
Mentor, I made it!
Did you see that?
”Billy turned back to Merlin, who folded his hands on his abdomen like a statue.He nodded expressionlessly.But Merlin was indeed a little surprised inside.Before, he had only heard about some wizarding geniuses in the gossip of wizards, how talented they were, but he had never seen them.Maybe Zatanna is one of those geniuses.But Zatanna practiced occult magic, and that thing was more of a talent, and it didn't work hard.And now, Merlin has seen it.Billy.
Batson, the 15-year-old, is a real genius.His innate magical physique made it easy for him to sense the flow of mana, and the divine power that old Shazam inherited from him helped him better correct the frequency of mana release.Solomon's wisdom made Billy.
Batson is able to memorize complex mana models in a fraction of the time.And Zeus's divine power allows him to release magic many times in a row before he feels tired.Billy learns magic more than ten times faster than Merlin once learned spells.Not to mention, in addition to magic, this kid has another more powerful means of warfare, which is the card at the bottom of his box."
Well, that's good."
Merlin opened his mouth and commented: "But there are still obvious fluctuations in mana power when the magic is ejected, because it is not enough to gather, the effect of the Sleepy Spell needs to be delayed for a few seconds to take effect, the accuracy is good, and finally...""
The casting posture is not graceful enough, like a big old man.""
Please, Mentor."
Billy sat on the ground, rubbing his forehead to give his brain a break, and he complained, "I accept all the things you said earlier, but the last one...
Spellcasting pose, what the hell!
No matter how elegant the posture is, it's useless in battle, right?
”"Pop" Merlin's fingers curled up and slammed into Butson's head, causing the kid to let out a scream.It's not good to be struck by the ghost's icy magic."
People are social creatures, Billy, there are no fewer spellcasters in this world than you think, you always have to come into contact with them."

Merlin put his hands behind his back, and he said seriously: "The wizarding world is also very complicated, and the people who can become wizards are really smart guys, they don't trust others easily, they will disguise, especially those dark wizards. ”"But no matter how much they disguise it, there's one thing they can't change anyway...
Cast stance. ”"Every wizard has their own unique spell-casting stance, which is a habit developed through long-term practice.""
If you're sharp enough, you'll be able to tell the caster's side from their gestures, their posture, and the tone of their chanting spells."
Merlin looked at the thoughtful Billy, and he accentuated his tone: "It's hard for a rude spellcaster to fit into a new group, and I want you to pay attention to the spellcasting gestures, also out of consideration for your future. ”"Orthodox wizards value this kind of portal, they are very rigid, and an elegant spell-casting gesture can make you more acceptable to them...
Well?
What are you doing?
”Batson, who was writing and drawing in his notebook with a pen, looked up and said to his mentor, "Write it down, you will always tell me these things, details, I am afraid that I will forget." ”"You have the wisdom of Solmon!"
Merlin said dissatisfiedly: "That's the wisdom enlightenment of the ancient great wizards, you can write down all the details of your life if you want to!"
Billy, you have to make good use of your abilities. ”"Okay."
Billy shrugged his shoulders and put the notebook back in his bag.He thought for a moment and said to Merlin, "Tutor, otherwise, I won't go to school in the future...
I come here every day, I have more time to practice magic, and I don't like school anyway, that knowledge is useless to me...""
Snap" Merlin's finger tapped on Billy's skull again, and the child let out another cry of pain."
You have to go to school, and that's not just the perfect disguise of who you really are."
Merlin said in a deep voice, "That knowledge is also necessary. ”"Learning Middle Languages will give you a better understanding of the wisdom of ancient wizards, calculus will help you construct force models more accurately, and biology will help you get a better introduction to pharmacy.""
Not to mention the more complex, incomprehensible arcane magic that I'll teach you later...
It requires strong logical thinking to understand, and that is the knowledge of higher mathematics. ”"Billy, you have to understand," Merlin said earnestly, "all knowledge is the same, and as a magic apprentice, you must respect all knowledge, and you must study well. ”"Hmm."
Batson nodded.This period of contact made him trust Merlin very much.This trust stems from the unreserved professorship, and despite Merlin's strictness, Billy can clearly feel his growth."
Come on."
Merlin took a few steps back, he hooked his finger at Billy, and he said, "Magic is done, it's time for the next practice." ”"Oh, I love this!
It's true. ”Billy.
Batson also stood up with his fists clenched, and the kid's face was full of eagerness.He said to Merlin, "You promised me that if I win against you, you will teach me to use magic to find my true mother, and you will not break your word, right?"
”"You've got to win first, and I'll talk about it."
Merlin's fingers clenched, and the black magic power converged into an anomalous long sword in his hand.He lifted the blade of his sword, pressed it to his forehead, and aimed it at Batson.A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and he said, "How long did you hold out yesterday?"
If I'm not mistaken... 47 seconds?
”"Not today."
Billy tucked his left hand behind him and said to Merlin, "I feel like I'm in good shape today, maybe I will... stupefy！
(Sleepy Curse!)
）”Before Billy could finish speaking, he drew his finger, and a pulsing ray of light stabbed Merlin, which he blocked with the sword in his hand."
Good boy!"
Merlin said, "It's good to learn and apply."
But if you're going to sneak attack, you'll have to hide better. ”A black light converged into a sharp blade and stabbed down from behind Billy.
“Shazam！”
In the moments before the blade was added, Billy.
Batson shouted.Between the roars of thunder, the Shazam superman, dressed in a red and yellow suit, rose to his feet in a storm of magical power.He reached out and flicked, shattering Merlin's magic blade.He moved his shoulders and fists, and he looked at Merlin in front of him, who was sketching an eerie cold wind in the shadows.His magic mentor was a ghost, a learned man.Whether on the level of magic, knowledge, or combat skills, he has enough experience to pass on to the nascent Shazam.Billy.
Batson knew he couldn't win.He needs to practice constantly to be able to last longer under the attack of his mentor.But one day, he will win!
Billy clenched his fists, yellow lightning bolts darting across his fingers, and he said, "Mentor, I'm going up." ”Hovering in the shadows, Merlin with his sword hooked his finger at Butson, and said, "It's your birthday, I'll be lighter, Billy." ”"30 seconds!
Solve you...""
Come...
Challenge me!
