Chapter 4: Basic knowledge

"Long Gong Wei, what time is it now?" Teacher Xiu looked at me with eyes full of anger.

"Ah! Teacher, why are you here? I'm sorry, I, I got up late this morning!"

Because I was really afraid of this scary teacher today, I walked around the school gate for a long time without daring to go in. Unexpectedly, he came out and it was terrible.

Sure enough, "You woke up late? You must be in poor spirits. The most important thing for a magician is spiritual training. You should refresh yourself first and run around the academy 5 times immediately to wake up."

I have no choice but to run. I started to take off slowly.

"In my name, Xi Yu Xiu, obey my call and appear, my servant, Guanghu."

This is a level 5 phantom beast. (Everyone who learns magic has his or her own phantom beast. You can have multiple phantom beasts. Summoning multiple phantom beasts at once will consume a lot of mental energy.)

"Longbow, you have to run quickly. If you are caught up by him, you know what will happen."

I looked at Guanghu, who was 4 or 5 times bigger than me, baring his teeth at me. I immediately used up all the energy I had to feed myself and rushed forward quickly. Light Tiger always followed me leisurely. When I wanted to slow down a little, an arrow of light (the only level 2 offensive magic among beginner and intermediate light magic) flew over, frightening me to speed up my pace immediately.

I'm so miserable.

Finally, after finishing what was like a long march to me, Teacher Xiu was kind enough to let me rest for 15 minutes.

Hey, why is my life so miserable

"Okay, get some rest. Let's take a look at what you have learned before. What kind of magic do you know? Longbow?"

"I, I know lighting"

"what else?"

"Gone."

"You learned the art of lighting in two years."

Then, Teacher Xiu asked me a lot of basic knowledge about magic and some sharp turn questions. Of course, the basic knowledge of magic is a mess. I slept most of the time in class, and I was able to answer sharp turns very well. After all, I am still very smart.

Teacher Xiu looked at me for two minutes and sighed.

"How did I meet such a lazy student like you? No wonder Teacher Lin asked me to discipline you. Although I knew that your grades were always at the bottom, I still didn't expect that you would return to work to this extent. Okay, today get out of class is over, don't be late tomorrow morning." He was helpless when he encountered a poor student like me.

What, just ask me to do it after class, he will be so nice, it's still morning.

"By the way, I'll leave you with some homework." He said and handed over two thick books.

I took it and took a look. One book read "Basic Knowledge of Magic" and the other read "Elementary Magic Spells and Explanations of Light System". Why are you giving me this? I couldn't help but look at him in confusion.

"Tomorrow you have to memorize the basic knowledge of magic and make up for the knowledge you missed as soon as possible. I don't want my students to be worse than others. The other one is a future textbook, you can also read it. Okay, You go home!"

"Teacher, do you have to memorize all the basics of magic?" I still hold on to one ten thousandth of hope.

"Of course, I have to check it tomorrow. If you still want to play with Guang Hu, you don't have to memorize it."

After saying these words, Teacher Xiu turned around and returned to the teacher's office building, leaving only me in a daze.

What kind of teacher is this? He is simply a devil. He asked me to memorize a book of 300 or 400 pages in one day.

The weather today is very good, sunny and windless, which is in sharp contrast to my current mood.

When I got home, my parents were not there. They all went to work. (Dad is a caster and mother is a therapist in the village.)

I took out "Basic Knowledge of Magic" and flipped through it. Although I was very lazy, thinking about the devil in the morning was a punishment... My calves are still cramping now. Go back, what else can I do...

The sun gradually set. With my unremitting efforts, I finally memorized 10 pages. 10 pages. It was only 10 pages. I could finish it in my lifetime.

"Hey, who comes back so early?" My mother, who usually comes home first every day, came back.

"I."

Hearing my feeble voice, my mother came over quickly.

"Dear son, why did you come back so early today? What's wrong with you? You're so listless. Did you make some mistake and let the teacher tell you?"

"No, Mom." Thinking of my almost impossible homework, I threw myself into my mother's arms and couldn't help crying. After all, I was still a 7-year-old child. My mother hugged me and asked:

"What's wrong? Tell your mother. Is someone bullying you?"

"Yes, yes, mom, my new teacher is so annoying. It's impossible for me to finish the homework he gave me, and he also punished me corporally."

"Ah!, what kind of homework? Why did the teacher punish you corporally?"

I hesitantly told me about today's school.

"Long Gong, this is your mistake. Although my mother knew that you were not very good at studying in the past, she never expected that you were so bad at studying. You didn't even learn basic knowledge in 2 years. The teacher was right to do this. You You little lazy boy should have a strong teacher to discipline you, your parents have spoiled you like this."

"Your mother is right, show dad what homework you have left and see if it is impossible to complete."

Dad is back too.

After reading my homework, my father smiled.

"My silly son, aren't you usually very smart? Why are you so stupid this time? Although this book is very thick, you don't have to memorize it by rote. Let your mother cook first, and your father will help you. "Then, my father began to teach me how to complete this impossible homework.

"Longbow, you see, this part mainly talks about the principles of magic application. There are many elements in our world. There are 6 basic elements. You know how to use magic. We will You need to communicate well with him, let the elements you want to use recognize you, gather around you, and then use spells to transform the magic elements you gathered into the purpose you want to achieve. This is magic, you see."

"In the name of me, Li Ao Wei, elements of the wind element, listen to my call, come to my side, and protect your friend - Wind Shield." Dad explained while inspiring me with practical examples. He divided the whole book into several parts, each part has its main content, and then combined the principles of each part with practice to explain it to me. Through Dad’s guidance, I was smart and immediately found the trick, and gradually became attracted to ignited my interest in magic.

… … …

"Okay, it's already very late. Let's get up early tomorrow morning to finish the rest."

"Okay, Dad, I didn't expect magic to be like this." Having received a lot of magic knowledge, I couldn't help but indulge in the ocean of magic. (I learned more in one night than I had learned in the past 2 years)

"Long Gong, it was your parents' fault in the past and they paid too little attention to your studies. Dad will definitely tutor you often in the future. We, Long Gong, will definitely become an excellent magician in the future."

Dad touched my head and looked at me kindly.

"Dad, I will definitely learn magic well."

The Son of Light made bold statements that he didn't even know if he could do, but he did do so in his subsequent elementary magic studies. (It’s just forced. With Xi Yu and Xiu here, I don’t want to study hard, hehe...)
