Chapter 162 Snow Owl’s first class, the college is shocked (two-in-one)
Jianhe University, Mage College.
The Gothic spire castle stands majestically, with bells ringing from the small bell tower on the top, echoing in the gorgeous hall decorated with stained glass and rose windows.
In the center of the hall is a high platform, which is also where the dean delivers important speeches. In normal times, students pass through the arcades connecting the halls in all directions, leading to lecture halls where different magic courses are set up.
Compared to the teachers and students of the Poets Academy who dress casually, the students of the Mage Academy dress more formally. More than 90% of them wear dark robes distributed by the Mage Guild, with tattoos corresponding to different ring numbers. sign.
The remaining 10% of students wore robes made of linen, wool and magical materials.
This type of robe can enhance the mage's perception of the magic network, thereby indirectly improving the effect of spell casting.
In front of a statue of Merlin, Mrs. Mercy, about forty years old, wearing a bustier dress, slowly walked towards the [Magic Scroll Learning] classroom with her skirt in hand.
Two young aristocratic ladies came arm in arm. When they saw Mercy, they immediately tensed up and lowered their heads and said, "Teacher Mercy!"
Mercy smiled slightly, The crow's feet wrinkled beside his green eyes, and he suddenly covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed, clearing his throat:
"Class is about to start. You two should go to the classroom quickly."
"Understood~"
"Gu!"
At this time, an owl hooted and ordered The three of them unanimously turned their attention to the statue of Archmage Merlin, and saw a snowy owl with snow-white feathers standing on the statue's head.
"What a cute owl!" One of the noble girls couldn't help but whisper, and then became curious, "Where did it come from? Is it lost? How did it end up in the Mage Academy?"
The other girl looked calmer and said: "It should be the magic pet of some apprentice."
Mrs. Mercy looked at the snowy owl and couldn't help but feel a trace of vigilance in her heart. It actually revealed the aura of the Three Rings.
Being able to contract such a command-level monster as a familiar, its owner will definitely not be an unknown person.
“Little guy, can you tell me who your master is?” Mercy tried to communicate with the snowy owl, smiling, ready to inform the owner of the snowy owl to take it away.
The sun shines through the stained glass windows, casting a magnificent halo over the mural-covered hall. Above the statue of Merlin, the snowy owl tilts its head and blinks: "Gu!"
"The Yeats of the Borlandi family?"
Mrs. Mercy discerned the meaning of the snowy owl and was startled, then said:
"Did he also come to the Master's College to attend classes? "
Principal Fina mentioned that a special new student will come to the Master's College. Mrs. Mercy speculated that it might be Yeats Brondi.
The Brondi family is well-known in the Golden Lion. Together with the Vic and Lannister families, they are descendants of the legendary knights. Recently, Yeats's name has been mentioned frequently, so Mercy naturally has something to say. Hear.
Yeats actually contracted a commander-level snow owl, which was something that Mercy had never thought of. After all, it would be difficult for a commander-level monster to sign a contract with a human being unless it was cultivated from an early age.
Either Yeats got the opportunity to contract with the commander-level snow owl due to his good luck, or he has extremely high attainments in animal taming. Whatever the reason, Mercy looked forward to meeting this baron. Above.
The snowy owl shook his head, indicating that Yeats was not coming to class, but that he was going to class!
Suddenly.
Mrs. Mercy froze on the spot, her eyes flashed, and said: "Are you coming to class?"
"Gu!" Snow Owl nodded vigorously, his yellow eyes flashing, indicating that Principal Fina asked him to come, and asked about the location of the classroom.
"You and these two girls should go to class together..." Mercy motioned to the two students to guide the snowy owl, hesitated for a while, and said, "I will be there soon..."
< br>An owl is coming to my Magic Scrolls course? Mercy thought to herself that Principal Fina actually agreed to let this snowy owl become a new student at the Mage Academy. Did she have any considerations?
Lecture Hall.
Jianhe University Mage College offers many courses such as potions, transfiguration, protection, and scrolls.
Among them, scroll science is regarded as one of the most difficult courses. Even the slightest distraction during the process of drawing the scroll will turn the entire scroll into waste paper.
Mercy stepped into the classroom. The spacious lecture room was filled with the faint aroma of herbs and book ink, and the magic candle chandelier in the center of the classroom provided sufficient lighting.
The students sat in front of a small writing table, with quills, ink bottles and alchemy crucibles placed on the table.
At this moment.
The students' eyes were all focused on a majestic snowy owl, which stood on the desk, its eyes shining with arrogance and confidence.
There were whispers.
“There are actually people who don’t come to class and let their magic pets do the work for them!”
“Is there a possibility that this owl is a new student?”
"Are you kidding? How does an owl draw a scroll?"
Mercy glanced at the snowy owl, feeling a little confused in her heart. Although this was indeed a three-ring magic pet, she wanted to draw a scroll like a human mage. , it’s so whimsical!
She shook her head gently, her expression returned to calm, and while treating the Snow Owl as an ordinary student, she began to teach:
"Today we are going to learn how to draw a scroll of 'healing'."
In the lecture hall, the students followed Mercy's instructions and boiled sage, salt, spring water and other materials in an alchemy crucible, then dipped their quills into the liquid and drew on the parchment scroll according to specific patterns.
"The magic liquid used to draw the scroll is particularly critical..." Mercy walked along the lecture hall and said slowly, "And when drawing, you also need to sense the magic network and transfer the magic power Guide it to the scroll..."
As she spoke, Mercy looked at the snowy owl and saw that its face was full of concentration, and a quill beside it floated automatically and drew on the parchment - as if it were 'Spell·Mage's Hand'!
Mercy was a little surprised.
Mage's Hand, this spell can summon invisible hands for the mage, and naturally it can also help the mage draw scrolls.
However, using the hands of a mage to draw a scroll requires both multitasking and a high degree of concentration. It is more than twice as difficult as drawing a scroll by hand!
Obviously some students noticed the strange behavior of the snowy owl and whispered among themselves.
“Drawing scrolls with the hands of a mage? This is too difficult...”
"It's just an owl, what else do you want with it?"
"Haha, don't tell me, it has the grace of the owl of the goddess Minerva!"
Those words It was full of teasing, causing laughter from his companions.
“You might as well say it was chosen by the magic god!”
Bang!
A student scratched his head in distress. The scroll in his hand had been completely destroyed, and the entire alchemy table was contaminated by splashing liquid.
"It doesn't matter if you fail once." Mercy cast a spell and waved her hand to restore the student's alchemy table to its original state with a smile. "After all, don't be impatient when drawing a scroll. Even a magic genius can hardly do it for the first time. You will succeed if you try."
"Gu~"
Snow Owl looked at the spell scroll floating in front of him, the lines on it were shining, and he nodded with satisfaction.
In this way, it should be considered a success!
"You, you..." Beside Snow Owl, a girl pointed at the scroll, eyes widened, and said in disbelief, "You have already finished drawing?!"
As soon as these words came out.
The eyes focused on the Snow Owl again.
The room fell into a brief silence.
There was astonishment, confusion and confusion in everyone’s eyes. Mercy was slightly startled, then came to Snow Owl's table and looked at the scroll drawn by Snow Owl, with something strange in her eyes.
"A very perfect finished product!" Mercy's eyes flickered, she picked up the scroll drawn by Snow Owl, showed it in front of all the students, and praised without hesitation, "It has great control over the magic power. The precision makes the quality of the scroll far beyond the ordinary one-ring scroll!”
The students of the Mage Academy have some basic knowledge. Looking at the shiny scroll, some have strange expressions or are silent.
No... An owl is better at drawing scrolls than all the students in the class?
It relies on the hand of a mage, doubling the difficulty, but it is the first one to succeed, and the quality is quite outstanding!
The muffled discussion sounded again.
“Whose magic pet is this? Is it specially sent to undermine our confidence?”
“I heard it is Yeats Brondi... Baron Kuchiki, who is good at taming animals. Good job!"
"I don't care, am I just an owl? Although I am really talented, it doesn't matter anyway..."
Mercy finally understood why Principal Fina This snowy owl will be allowed to join the magic academy - this snowy owl has amazing magic talent, even drawing scrolls is no problem for it!
"Wait, Minerva's owl, could you say..."
Mercy stared at the round, snow-white owl, remembering that Principal Fina was good at predicting academics, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she thought to herself:
"Is this the preparation that Principal Fina made in advance to compete with Tame University for the Magic God's Choice?"
Snowy Owl narrowed his yellow eyes, yawned, and then nodded secretly: " Gu! "
The owner seems to be short of money...
I can draw more scrolls and give them to him, so he can make money selling them!
"Gu..." Snow Owl fell into deep thought.
The gold coins obtained from selling scrolls can be used to buy advanced scrolls.
I will learn how to draw high-end scrolls, and then sell high-end scrolls...
"Goo!" The Snow Owl's eyes turned into shiny gold coins, and he couldn't help but fanned. Flap your wings.
In the words of the owner, this is the rhythm of getting rich!

That afternoon.
There are two major rumors circulating at Cam River University, both related to Baron Yeats.
First, Baron Yeats improvised a sonnet in the lecture hall of the College of Poets. After class, Dean Richard saw an excerpt of the poem and was so shocked that he was speechless on the spot.
Secondly, in the scrollology class at the Master's College, Baron Yeats's familiar, an owl, showed his astonishing talent in scrollology, and was highly praised by Mrs. Mercy.
At dusk, in a cafe along the Jian River, two beauties with very different styles were sitting at a small table covered with fine linen tablecloth.
Elsa rolled up her blond hair by her ears, her green eyes were full of longing, she smiled shyly and said:
“You should really listen to Baron Yeats reciting sonnets live. Yes, June, his voice is like a nightingale It sounds pretty."
The heroic beauty with short brown hair crossed her arms, leaned back in the chair, and sighed: "It's probably a talent given by the nightingale potion, and the bard is good at these little tricks."
"But he is also good at taming animals." Elsa said seriously, "His magic pet caused a lot of noise in the Mage Academy."
"Some people even It is said that the snowy owl contracted by Yeats is the reincarnation of Minerva's owl——"
"With such a powerful magic pet, Yeats can become an animal tamer even if he is no longer a bard. A great achievement!" Elsa defended.
"The owl of Minerva?" June Lannister shook his head, "This rumor is too bizarre...but you are right."
June Lannister He picked up the coffee, took a sip, his golden eyes flashed deeply, and murmured in a low voice:
"Baron Yeats is indeed underestimated...even my father is no exception..."
"It is said that morning frost coffee and sandwiches are spread from morning frost ridge. " Elsa said half-jokingly:
"Baron Yeats, isn't he still a gourmet chef?"
June didn't answer and said calmly: "I have to prepare for a war recently. The Knight Academy's tournament and the Mage Academy's expedition to the ruins are also in these two days. Elsa, you have to try to get a spot in the Poet Academy."
"I... can do it. "?" Elsa said uncertainly.
"This trial will involve three students from each university. It will be a team effort. Even if you are unsatisfactory, your teammates will help you make up for it. Besides, as long as you can participate, you will have a chance to receive Minerva's blessing."
June thought wholeheartedly about Elsa, and said with some guidance: "If it doesn't work out, just act coquettishly to Duke Vic...he will go out of his way to help you."
< br>As one of the two major contenders for the royal family, Duke Vic is expected to ascend to the throne and indeed has enough energy.
"I remember it." Elsa said seriously, "Thank you, June."
June took out a manual from her arms and said, "Also, this I asked for it for you, Baron Yeats’s letter address..."
The blonde girl's eyes suddenly shone, she hugged June's arm intimately, and said with joy: "Oh my God, you are so good, June! Thank you very, very much!"
Short-haired beauty's The corners of his mouth slightly raised, but there was an inexplicable loss in his heart... I have been helping you with your advice for so long, but it is not as important as Yeats's letter address?
The key is that I personally handed over the contact information of my love rival to Elsa... June's mood was complicated.
It hurts, it hurts so much!
Night falls.
Yeats returned to the palace hall and found that Gray had fallen asleep on the desk, and her tears were almost dripping onto the page.
“I don’t want to eat it…I really don’t want to eat it…just take a bite…”
Yeats laughed dumbly.
It smells really good in your dream too?
Hearing the commotion, the dragonborn girl rubbed her sleepy eyes and stood up, greeting her: "You're back, Yeats... It's the first day of class today, how do you feel?"
"Not bad." Yeats said casually, "I will soon be the dean of the College of Poets."
Grey:? ? ?
You are really not humble at all!
"I just contacted Crane." Yeats continued, "Tomorrow, come with me to the barber shop by the Jian River, Gray."
Gray thought of getting a haircut The pale and beautiful Vampire woman in the store said alertly: "What are you doing there?"
Yeats muttered:
“There have been many murders in the school recently. When the bodies were found, their blood was dried up and their bodies were shriveled. Lisa, as a vampire, is highly suspected. If she is interrogated, we can get some information. "Clues."
"That's what the bearded detective should do. What does it have to do with you?" Gray asked sideways.
Yeats frowned slightly, worried that the mastermind behind the scenes was related to the Apostle of the Moon. He must try his best to destroy Sariel's plan, and it was necessary to pursue the case.
"Just think of me as a detective out of interest." Yeats said calmly, "From now on, you will be my assistant detective."
"Nickname - Watson!"
"What a weird nickname this is!" Gray complained, "And since they are partners, you should have a corresponding one!"
Yeats said lightly: "I got up early."
