Bone refinement method

"Bone refining is very particular and it is divided into different levels..."

Although Mathew was caught a little off guard, he did not act panicked at all.

After all, he had read a lot of online novels in his previous life, and his ability to make things up was not bad.

Having eaten food containing those flowers for so long, he found that his brain was much faster and his spirit became sharper.

While outwardly acting slowly, he put his mind on overdrive and made things up as he went.

"Today, as your teacher, I will explain the detailed knowledge about bone refining to you."

"Bone refining is an extremely important foundation of a mage and cannot be neglected."

"It is related to the strength you will be able to archive in the following realms, and it might even affect the peak real you can achieve in your life."

"If the bones are not well refined, your future career might be short..."

Natasha was fascinated by the theories, as she kept nodding frequently, and sometimes she would seem to have a sudden realization.

'It turns out that there are so many things to pay attention to in bone refining.'

'Fortunately, I have been practicing to be calm and not to be impatient, therwise, if I rush into bone refining and fail to understand the details, wouldn't I be ruining my future as a mage?'

Natasha sighed inwardly.

The more she listened, the more she felt that the bone refining stage was profound.

'I will soon complete the skin refining, after completing the skin refining, I must settle down and study my notes carefully!'

'After I understand the art of bone refining, and have started to practice it, I should make sure that I don't become hastily!'

She made up her mind.

As Matthew made up this nonsense, he kept paying attention to Natasha's expression.

He was quite satisfied with the attentiveness as he spoke, so he said a few words to comfort her.

"Natasha, you must remember, just because you are slow in your practice at the beginning does not mean that you will be slow in the future.

"The path of mage-hood is just like building a house, the foundation is very important."

"If the foundation is not strong and the foundation is not stable, the house you have built will not be able to withstand the wind and rain, and it will easily collapse."

"You must keep in mind that during practice, the pursuit of speed will only lower your own upper limit thus effectively destroying your future as a mage."

"From ancient times to modern times, many people have practiced very quickly in the early stages and looked like geniuses, however, in the later years, because their foundations were not strong, their progress became very slow. They even reached the upper limit before their peers and could no longer make any progress."

Matthew said this with the intention of comforting Natasha, to tell her that although she has not yet sensed mana yet, there is no need to pursue speed.

Natasha was refreshed after hearing this and thought:

'He must be warning me that although my cultivation speed is not as fast as that of the supreme geniuses, as long as my foundation is solid, I can definitely catch up!'

'He must have high hopes for me, and I will never let him down!'

'I must lay a solid foundation and surpass those supreme geniuses!'

Natasha was deeply moved and responded respectfully:

"Don't worry, I will definitely remember your teachings, I will be patient and build a solid foundation, and I won't let you down!'

Mathew nodded slightly and said:

"It is good that you understand my painstaking efforts, this makes me very happy!"

After saying this, he breathed a sigh of relief:

'Finally, I fooled her again. Even if she doesn't feel mana for another month or two, she should be able to stay calm, right?'

'What's more, after eating the chicken soup stewed by those flowers, my body became stronger. Her body should have also become stronger.'

'If I am luck, at the end of the one year period, she will think that although she failed to become a mage, my training was worth something.'

'However, I should still prepare for all possibilities, who knows if Natasha's brain will just twitch one day and decide that I am a cheater, so I still has to think of a way to escape.'

After stabilizing Natasha's mentality, the next step will be much easier. Just let her continue to practice.

One year is very long.

"Teacher, you said that there are different levels of bone refining. Can you tell me what they are?"

A certain victim of fraud asked respectfully.

"Yeah, that's right, there are different levels of bone refining. "

Matthew was startled as he had almost forgotten the lies that he made.

'I should set the difficulty of bone refining higher, since she can't sense mana, and she can't even do skin refining. The more difficult bone refining is, the more extravagant and awe inspiring it will sound.' 

'When she is unable to succeed, she will give up and feel that her talent is not good enough. Who knows, she might even take the initiative to leave and feel ashamed of her lack of ability...'

'If I give her another chance, for example, I tell her that she can bring her children in the future to see if they have the potential...'

'In this way, the possibility of being exposed is even lower, and I can gain a sum of money for her future children...'

This was just a random thought of Matthew, he was still keen on escaping to another kingdom.

With the gold that he had received from Natasha, he was set to live a comfortable life.

All these thoughts happened in a flash, in reality he straightened up his expression and and started making up more nonsense:

"The bone refining process is divided into four levels, bones like iron, bones like bronze, bones like gold, and bones like diamonds..."

Natasha looked excited and asked:

"Iron bones, bronze bones, gold bones, and diamond bones, are the four stages of bone refining?"

Matthew shook his head and said:

"No! These are the four levels of bone refining, which represent both your future as a mage and the relative strength you can archive."

"Iron bones, most mages can only reach this level. Your body's mana is used to temper the bones, and they they will become as hard as iron."

"Not only will ordinary swords be unable to cut through them, but they will gain the ability to store some mana."

"Of course, iron bones are just ordinary, and the amount of mana that can be stored is very small, so the future is limited."

"Bronze bones are stronger than iron bones, and they can store more mana."

"Once you have refined copper bones, your foundation will already be deep and your upper limit as a mage will be higher."

"If you have them, even after you have died and thousands of years have passed, they will not decay."

"For ordinary people, this is considered to be the best."

"Only those who are refined into golden bones can be considered as geniuses!"

When Matthew got here, he became very solemnly.

"Since ancient times, to truly be considered a genius, you have to refine golden bones!"

Natasha became excited when she heard this, and her eyes gleamed as she asked:

"How do I refine golden bones?"

Matthew was speechless when he saw her eyes shining with excitement.

'Does this idiot think that she can get golden bones? You can't even sense mana! I made this all up!!'

He still responded in a deep voice:

"Calm down and don't be impatient!"

"Yes, teacher!"

Natasha hurriedly calmed down her excitement and sat upright.

"Once you refine golden bones, even after death and being buried in the ground for ten thousand years, your bones will still be golden and sturdier than steel."

"However, throughout the ages, not one out of a hundred thousand mages can be able to refine golden bones. At best, only one in a thousand geniuses can be able to achieve it."

'Don't ask me who did the statistics, it just sounds cool.'

"Teacher, do geniuses also have levels?"

Natasha asked curiously.

"Naturally!"

Mathew nodded and said:

"Just like beautiful women, there are differences between beautiful women, and the same is true for geniuses!"

Natasha suddenly said:

"I understand, just like in the spring breeze pavilion in Pike city, the number one girl is a rare beauty, but the hidden high class girls have better appearances!"

Matthew's eyes became slightly strange, and he gritted his teeth in his heart.

'I want to go too.'

From the things that Natasha told him during this time, he had understood the general situation of pike city, and this spring breeze pavilion was some sort of high class club that doubled as some sort of brothel.

"Master, this is just a metaphor. I have never been there!"

Natasha noticed Matthew's strange eyes and said awkwardly, as if she had accidentally exposed herself.
