The Legendary Mage (Alavin) novel Chapter 119

Alavin's consciousness sank into the Energy Core, within the mystical Energy Realm, as he tried to awaken the Shadowbringer.

Despite his various attempts, the Shadowbringer remained silent, floating quietly without any response.

"How much do you know about the Shadowbringer?" Alavin tried to communicate with the Chained Spirit once more.

"Aren't you curious to first find out who that old man is?" The Chained Spirit didn't keep Alavin waiting, responding leisurely.

"When it's time to know, I'll naturally find out." Alavin was certainly curious about the old master’s identity, but he felt no need to learn it from the Chained Spirit.

"The Shadowbringer is a symbol of him, a companion throughout the bloody path of his earlier life."

"I don't care who he is, nor do I care about what he's done. To me, he's just the person who's been with me for eight years. You said you'd help me. Let's set aside the matters of the ancient kingdom for now. I just want to awaken the Shadowbringer."

"Your current strength is insufficient to awaken the Shadowbringer, let alone master it."

"Isn't there any way at all?"

The Chained Spirit was silent for a moment. "Everything has a solution, it's just a matter of whether you can bear the consequences behind it."

"Tell me, then."

"How much pain can you endure?"

"As long as it doesn't kill me."

"What if it's worse than death?"

"I've endured more suffering in the past eight years than you can imagine. I just want results, I don't care about the process."

Alavin truly didn't mind the pain; his kin was suffering, the two hundred thousand citizens of the ancient city were suffering, and if Alavin truly had a chance to save them, he was willing to pay any price!

The Commander's words also echoed in his ears. Alavin needed to show his worthiness, to give the Commander a reason to release him from servitude.

"Good! You have the spirit of a warrior. I can help you activate the Shadowbringer, but as for harnessing its power, how much you can control will depend on your own endurance."
