The Sorcery Academy: I am Invincible After Getting Treasure Chests Everyday - Chapter 14
When Duke Bart received the news, he was in his castle discussing military matters with some high-ranking imperial officials.
Duke Bart dukedom was at the border and was the general who guarded the empire’s borders. With him in place, no enemy could cross the border into the empire.
He was also an illustrious God of War, known to command the number one legion of the Empire.
His wife had died early and he only had one son. Thus, he had poured all his heart and soul into this son of his and doted on him greatly.
As a result, Linley Bart had relied on his father’s pampering to grow up into a spoiled brat.
Duke Bart knew that his son was a prodigal but he couldn’t bring himself to teach him a lesson. This was because the moment he saw his son, he thought of his deceased wife. He had promised his wife that no matter what, he would take good care of his son, and so he just let Linley do as he pleased.

But as Linley Bart grew up, he became more and more mischievous. In fact, it became extremely difficult for him to even ask a noble’s daughter to marry him.
Only now did he realize that he couldn’t let Linley Bart continue like this. He had to properly educate his son, or else his entire life would be ruined.
Although Duke Bart was a legendary warrior, he did not know how to change his son’s character. He also did not wish for his son to fight and kill with him in the future. He knew that it was hard on him to make him fight on the battlefield.
Thus, Linley had been sent to the Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy to further his studies.
Originally, he didn’t expect Linley Bart to become a sorcerer. All he wanted was for Linley to be able to cultivate his body and mind.
However, Duke Bart was shocked when he had received the document of Linley’s achievement in the academy today. It was even more shocking than when he saw the victory report.
……
“Is this… true?” Duke Bart looked at his subordinate who had delivered the list.
“It’s absolutely true! I have already confirmed repeatedly that the young master is one of the top ten students in the Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy and will represent the academy to participate in the Five Great Sorcery Academy Competition. Although I am not sure if he is an official member, this is already sufficient to prove the young master’s strength!”
“Good!” Duke Bart slammed the table. “He did live up to my expectations!”
The other high-ranking officials of the empire were stunned. In their impression, Duke Bart’s son did not have any talent in magic. How could he be in the top ten of the academy?
Could it be that his subordinates had deliberately fabricated this to make Duke Bart happy?
“Duke, should we check this list again?” An official suggested.
Duke Bart flew into a rage. “Are you doubting my son’s strength?”
“I wouldn’t dare…”
“Pass down the order! Reward the three armies!”
“Yes!”
Duke Bart suddenly thought of something. “I need to also write a letter to my precious son and encourage him! Hahaha!”
The empire’s magic messenger was very fast. Because of the use of magic power, it would take only a few minutes for a letter to be sent from one place to another.
Soon, Duke Bart’s letter arrived in front of Linley.
The letter was delivered through a magical pigeon, which flew from the window into Linley’s room.
At first, Linley Bart was rather surprised, because, in his memories, Duke Bart had never written to him.
Because he couldn’t read.

Linley Bart opened the envelope and read the contents:
“Son, I have seen your results.
As a father, I am greatly pleased.
I was worried at first if you were used to life at the Academy.
Would anyone bully you?
However, when I saw your results, I was completely relieved.
You have done a great job and are the glory of our family.
However, you don’t have to push yourself too hard.
If you can obtain victory, then seize it.
A war that is difficult to win should be avoided appropriately.
This was something that your father had learned from years of war.
That is pretty much all I have to say.
You’ve already grown up and should know how to take care of yourself.
I hope that you will do well in the Five Great Sorcery Academy Competition.
From your beloved father.”
After reading the letter, Linley Bart could feel his father’s expectations for him.
Although Linley Bart wasn’t the same old Linley Bart, he could still sense the anticipation his father had for him in this letter.
“I will work hard!” Linley Bart replied simply.
Linley Bart felt that he couldn’t let down his father’s expectations of him, even though he was no longer the old Linley Bart.
In his previous life, he rarely felt any fatherly love.
He was also not really a good person in the past.
Linley Bart had begun to enjoy life here. Here, he had more dignity and more power.
Actually, he felt that he was no different from that “hedonistic son of a wealthy family, Linley Bart”.
Trash. This was what the others thought of him the most.
No matter what he did, he would give up halfway when he was faced with difficulty. In the past life in his original world, he lived a life of mediocrity and had no achievements. Even before he had died, he was still looked down upon by others.
But then again, most people lived a life like his too. Most people didn’t have any clear goals and merely lived their days in a daze.
In other words, even if he returned to his previous world, the Earth which had no magic, he would still be living a meaningless life.
People like Linley Bart were everywhere.
At the end of the day, he was just wasting his time and delaying his studies. His exams were also a mess and he did not even bother to reflect on himself.
How had Linley Bart come to this world of sorcery?
The story was pretty simple. He had ran away from home after his father had scolded him. Following this, he died in an accident while on the road. The next thing he knew, he had already come to this world with magic and treasure chests.
After that, he managed to gain a hold of the old Linley Bart’s memories. After understanding more about the old Linley Bart, he had realized that they were the same kind of people.
The old Linley had also often quarreled with his father. Throughout his life, he was always distracted by external factors and lived his life aimlessly. In the end, he too had achieved nothing in his life.
He never put much effort into learning magic. Yet, he had always boasted and made others hate him.
There were many people who loved learning more than him and had clear goals.
Linley Bart was nothing more than a spoiled brat, one who didn’t even have the right to talk about his dreams.
He did things merely because he had to do it. If he had to work a little harder, he would find an excuse to escape. To him, studying an hour a day meant working very hard.
Even if he went to university, he would just be idling around, joining a relaxed club, and finding a decent-looking girlfriend to continue living his days.
Such a life was terrible.
Linley Bart thought about many things and felt that he shouldn’t remain like this. He should change himself and change his destiny.
Coming to this sorcery world was a chance given by the heavens. He wanted to be the strongest here, stronger than anyone else!
He absolutely didn’t want anyone to look down on him anymore. He wanted those fellows who thought they were geniuses to fall at his feet!
Linley Bart had the treasure chest system. Only he could obtain more treasure chests. His strength and potential far surpassed everyone else.
At this moment, after reading his father’s letter and combing through his memories, Linley Bart had made up his mind. He would defeat all his enemies and become the champion!
