Rotgar frowned and found the existence named Leon Freeman from the memory of this body.
The person he is currently possessing is named Raymond Byledeford, the eldest son of the Viscount. He is a fairly talented two-star mage. He is eighteen years old this year and is already preparing for the assessment to become a three-star mage.
And Leon, who was also the son of a viscount, had always been Raymond's competitor. The two joined the Mage Association at almost the same time. But two years ago, Leon's father, Viscount Freeman, died in an accident. At that time, Leon, who was only fifteen years old, was already a two-star mage with a bright future. Therefore, no one dared to touch his title, and he naturally became the new Freeman. Viscount Mann.
Raymond is still the son of a viscount, but he is more advanced than Lyon in magic and is about to become a three-star mage. Although Lyon is still far from being a three-star mage, he is already a viscount. The two have disliked each other for a long time and are considered old enemies.
Rotgar was in a very bad mood as the door was slammed in his face by Leon.
He came to see Anna. What does he have to do with Leon? !
He originally wanted to rush in directly, but he thought that this was Anna's first class, and his current body was carefully selected by the entire Mage Association to be the most suitable to get close to Anna, so ruining the first impression was not worth the loss.
Rotgar forced to hold back his offended anger. This time he had already thought of another way to get close to Anna, and could not ruin his plan from the beginning.
It was only four months, he could bear it.
Rotgar quickly put away his angry expression and decided to leave here first.
Let Anna think that the Raymond he possessed was looking for trouble with Leon. Oh, this time there is enough time, he will slowly approach Anna.
In Meditation Room No. 1, by the time Leon returned to the mat and sat down, Anna had returned to her serious expression.
It's just that she is a little worried. If Leon is so tough, will the devil secretly take revenge on him? Or she could simply possess Leon again, leaving her without any serious courses to take...
"Teacher Lyon, does this not matter?" Anna asked.
"He shouldn't disturb me during class time." Leon explained simply, obviously not intending to say more. Looking at his previous records, he asked, "Do you know the intrinsic properties of natural elements?"
"I know." Anna nodded, and then explained the intrinsic attributes of the eight natural elements.
"Basic spell circuit?"
"There are condensation circuits, compression circuits, conversion circuits and diffusion circuits. I also know the patterns." Anna said while using her fingers to draw four basic spell circuits.
Leon and Anna kept asking and answering questions like this. About fifteen minutes later, Leon said: "According to my previous lesson plans, you don't need an introductory introductory course."
Anna's expression changed, was this not letting her have sex for free
Fortunately, Leon continued: "You haven't been exposed to potions, have you? I can give you an introductory class on potions."
Generally speaking, the free introductory courses of the Mage Association teach the most basic knowledge about mage, and also include simple practical exercises like meditation. To really get started, you still have to spend money to hire a specialized teacher.
It was Anna's good luck that she met Leon. He was willing to modify the tutorial for Anna and teach her something she had never learned before and really needed.
Anna's eyes lit up and she quickly said: "Thank you, teacher, I will study hard!"
The introductory class on potions will be held in the potion room. In this class, Leon first sorted out the basic knowledge for Anna so that all her knowledge could be placed in a clear structure. In the remaining time, he taught some how to construct spell circuits. tips and taught her some new simple spells.
Anna was afraid of forgetting, so she took notes seriously.
One hour passed quickly. At the end of the class, Leon said: "The class will still be at this time tomorrow. I will borrow the pharmacy room. For details, you can go to the service desk to confirm tomorrow morning."
"Okay, thank you teacher! I really learned a lot today, thank you very much!" Anna thanked her repeatedly, and then took the opportunity to say, "I wonder if the teacher can recommend some books that are suitable for me to read?"
Leon nodded slightly, seeming to appreciate Anna's studiousness. After thinking for a moment, he wrote a book list for Anna. There were more than ten books, including basic knowledge about magicians, potions, mental control, and meditation. Spell circuit component skills, practical skills, etc.
"After reading these, if you can use the techniques skillfully, you can pass the one-star mage assessment." Leon said.
Anna held up the book list as if she had found a treasure and said thank you: "Good teacher, thank you!"
What a blessing it is to have a good teacher to guide you when you are starting out!
Leon nodded, curled his lips slightly, and left the meditation room with a faint smile.
Anna tidied up the meditation room a little and restored it to its original state before leaving.
Fortunately, the devil wasn't blocking her outside.
Thinking that Leon will teach him how to get started with potions tomorrow, if the devil gets to Leon...
Anna decided to do something!
Because she didn’t know the name of the man possessed by the devil, Anna couldn’t find anyone to ask where he was.
Apart from her love of harvesting souls, Anna's understanding of the demon was extremely limited. For example, she didn't know his preferences. What was he doing when he wasn't having trouble with her
Seeing that it was still early for the appointment with Natalie, Anna first visited the entire association, comparing it with the maps in the manual, and taking a blind chance to see if she could encounter the devil by chance.
The association occupies a large area. After walking around, it was getting late, so she had to give up looking for the devil for the time being and went to the association cafeteria she had passed before.
Natalie arrived earlier than Anna. When Anna arrived, she saw Natalie waving to her, and her whole body seemed to be full of energy.
When Anna came closer, Natalie asked casually and curiously: "Anna, why don't you wear a mage's robe? But you look really good."
This touches on Anna's pain point. She said sadly: "I can't afford it."
"Huh? Yes... I'm sorry!" Natalie blushed and apologized hurriedly. How could she forget? Anna is just a civilian, a civilian who fled her hometown. Why would she ask her such a question!
"I'm just telling a fact, you don't need to apologize." Anna said, "I just saved up about five gold coins, enough to test the affinity of natural elements, so I came to the Mage Association. Anyway, the mage robe is of no use to me for the time being, and I happened to buy it. If I can’t afford it, I won’t buy it yet. But regarding money, I do have something to ask you.”
Upon hearing this, Natalie immediately took out her money bag and said quickly: "How much do you want to borrow? I have a total of fifteen gold coins. If it's not enough, I can give you twenty more tomorrow."
Looking at Natalie's bag full of gold coins, Anna felt her heart hurt even more. Why couldn't she dress like a noble from the beginning? In this way, not only does she have no chance of being targeted by demons, but she can also spend money as she pleases. Kong Jing can buy as much as she wants. She can make two staffs at a time, one for use and one for decoration.
Anna held Natalie's hand and pushed it back, and smiled: "I will definitely not be polite when necessary. But what I want to ask now is something else. I want to know, is there a way to make money suitable for a mage apprentice? Hard work. It doesn’t matter if it’s a little bit, or even a little bit dangerous.”
Seeing that Anna refused simply, Natalie had to take back the money bag with regret. After thinking about it, she said: "I heard that some senior mages don't want to go out themselves, so they will issue tasks and let people pick some things that are only within the line of life and death." The specific potion formula plants and magical beasts that grow. The association also needs someone to regularly pick plants and hunt magical beasts as free potions for the apothecary room."
She stuck out her tongue and said sheepishly: "But because I'm so weak, I never thought about it."
Anna thought to herself, it was not just because of poor strength, but also because the family did not lack that little money.
"Where can I see these tasks?" Anna asked.
"In the affairs hall, there is a wall over there. The tasks of the association and the tasks of the senior mage are all posted on it. That is the task bar, and there is a notification board next to it, which is related to the entire association. , but usually if there is something important, the receptionist will specifically say it when he sees us, so you won’t miss anything if you don’t look.”
Anna remembered that she did see a papered wall in the service hall, but because no one looked there every time she passed by the service hall, she thought it was something special like the association's "spiritual civilization construction". content.
After learning about this method, Anna planned to go see it later. There was still some danger on the other side of the line between life and death. She felt that she should not be able to do it at her current level.
But she didn't want to miss this method. The "subsidy" given by the association was so generous, and she also wanted to make money from the association!
"Come on, let's talk while we eat." Anna pulled Natalie into the cafeteria.
It turned out that Anna looked out of place when walking around various areas of the association, wearing a badge but not a mage robe. However, in the cafeteria, Natalie, who was wearing a mage robe, looked a bit eye-catching.
But Natalie herself didn't seem to care at all. She said with some expectation and excitement: "Anna, if you plan to take on those tasks in the future, can you also take me with you? I'll help you, but I don't want all the gains. I just I’ve never participated in anything like that, and I really want to try it!”
"Then it depends on the results of your special training." Anna said, "Especially the actual combat results. If it is too bad, how dare I take you to deliver desserts to Warcraft?"
Natalie, who was underestimated, muttered angrily: "Obviously you are still just a mage apprentice!"
Anna was very generous and pretended not to hear anything. She ordered a recommended set menu and turned to Natalie and said, "Order what you want."
Natalie looked over, then looked at the set meal 1 that Anna was already holding in her hand, pointed at it and said, "I want this too!"
The two found a corner and sat down. Anna thought about Leon and asked, "By the way, Natalie, do you know Leon Freeman?"
Natalie nodded: "You know, he took your introductory class? You are so lucky!"
Anna smiled and said: "He teaches very well. I am so lucky to have such a teacher."
"He does well in class, is handsome, and is also a viscount. He is very popular among low-level mages." Natalie said, tugging at Anna's sleeve and saying, "He already has a fiancée, how about you?" Don’t fall in love with him.”
Anna really wanted to roll her eyes, did she look like someone who fell in love with anyone casually
"I like his class, but I won't like his people, so don't worry." Anna picked up the white bread and took a bite. She actually missed rice in her heart. Unfortunately, she followed the Romans, and she had no place to find rice. , I can only miss him with tears.
Natalie nodded and said seriously: "That's good, otherwise you will definitely be sad. I think you definitely don't want to be someone else's lover."
"Yes, I really don't want to." Anna knocked on the table, "Where are your seven assessment results?"
Natalie's face changed drastically: "What's going on? We're not talking about lovers!"
"I knew you had been stalling for time." Anna shrugged, "Is it fun to stall for time? You have to show it to me in the end anyway."
Natalie's face turned gloomy, and she took out a piece of paper with delicate handwriting on it.
Anna took it and looked at it and smiled: "Did you write this yourself? You have a pretty good memory."
After seven assessments, Natalie memorized them all without missing a beat.
Natalie said with a drooping face: "Every failure is painful, can I not remember it?"
The promotion assessment is divided into two parts: theoretical and practical. Theoretical scores are scored, but they will be announced in four grades: excellent, medium, qualified, and unqualified. The full score is 100. Below 60 is unqualified, and above 80 is average. , 95 and above are considered excellent. There are three practical items, including mental power, potions and actual combat. There are no scores, only four levels of results. Only when all grades are passed or above, can you pass the promotion assessment.
Anna looked at Natalie's seven results and found that they were not getting better and better, but rather jumping. The first time she passed the theory and mental strength, but failed the medicine and actual combat, and the second time she only had the mental strength. The strength is qualified.
In the seventh assessment, Natalie passed the test again on theory and mental strength, but failed on medicine and actual combat.
"Your theory and mental strength are still good. Your failure should be related to your on-the-spot performance. In the next two months, just focus on training your on-the-spot performance." Anna analyzed carefully, "I have never been qualified in actual combat. Normally Why don't you practice with others? The potion passed twice and failed five times. It seems that passing the potion is a matter of luck."
After listening to Anna's analysis, Natalie covered her mouth with surprise: "Anna, I almost suspected that you peeked at my exam! The time I failed the theory test was because I was too nervous the day before and didn't sleep well. Those answers were clearly in my mind, but I couldn't remember them. So I also failed the mental test that time. The two times I passed the potion test, the two potions I drew happened to be the ones I had just practiced the day before. I passed. In actual combat... When I stood on the martial arts field, my legs became weak and my mind went blank!"
Seeing Natalie's expression of meeting an old friend in a foreign land, Anna reached out and touched her head, and said compassionately: "I will help you well in the next two months."
Natalie didn't know that Anna was pitying her for the "cruel exam preparation life" in the next two months. She thought Anna was pitying her for failing the exam seven times. Her eye circles instantly turned red, she whined twice, and she rubbed her head against Anna's palm. Latteng: "Anna, you are so kind, I am about to fall in love with you!"
Anna quickly took back her hand and said: "I have never passed the promotion assessment. As an experienced person, please tell me the specific content of the assessment first."
Natalie remembered that Anna had just confidently said that she would help her in the next two months, but in fact Anna didn't even know the content of the assessment, and she suddenly felt that her next assessment did not seem very optimistic.
But she always forgets that Anna is a mage apprentice like her, and she has only been a mage apprentice for a day. She feels that Anna has a very special kind of confidence, which makes her involuntarily trust Anna.
Natalie knocked her head and stuck out her tongue in embarrassment under Anna's surprised gaze. She stopped thinking about what was and wasn't and said seriously: "The promotion assessments at different levels all have the scope of theoretical examination. Elementary level You can find corresponding books in the library, and there are not many books you need to read to become a one-star mage. Mental power is to test your mental strength. Generally, the assessment teacher will ask you to use your mental power to construct some simple spell circuits. Depending on your You will be graded on the speed and quality of completion. Potion is to test the mastery of potions. It must be prepared on the spot. Whether the preparation is successful or not, the effect of the prepared potion is the evaluation criterion. Actual combat is an examination of comprehensive ability. Each The mage apprentices who are participating in the promotion assessment for the first time will fight one on one, regardless of winning or losing, the assessment teacher will assign levels based on their performance in actual combat."
After all, she was an experienced candidate who had taken the promotion examination seven times, so Natalie spoke clearly.
"Understood, I will make a special training plan first, and we will start after I finish all the introductory classes." Anna nodded, "By the way, how often is the promotion assessment?"
"Promoting to one star and two stars happens once every six months, and rising to three stars happens once a year. These assessment times will be staggered. However, promotion to four and five stars requires you to go to the capital, and most five-star mages will stay in the capital, but our association still has There has never been a five-star mage.”
Natalie was very calm when she said this. For her, there was no illusion of being promoted to a two-star mage. All she wanted was to be promoted to a one-star mage and become a baron, so that she would not have to be forced to marry by her father.
Next, the two of them chatted about some association gossip while eating.
Anna deliberately brought the topic to Leon. She wanted to know who the devil was possessing now. At that time, Lyon's reaction to closing the door was a bit big, and she guessed that the two people had known each other before.
Sure enough, Natalie soon told Anna an important piece of information. The person who has always been at odds with Lyon is named Raymond Byledeford, the son of a viscount. He became a one-star mage at the age of ten, a two-star mage at the age of fourteen, and is now eighteen years old, preparing to become a three-star mage in half a year. Promotion assessment.
An excellent young mage, just in line with the devil's preferences.
Anna and Natalie finished their lunch while chatting, and they walked out of the cafeteria together. Anna turned to Natalie and said, "I have nothing to do in the afternoon, let's go to the elementary library together."
Now that she has gotten Leon's recommended book list, of course she has to start reading it immediately!
Natalie did not respond to Ana, but frowned and looked forward. The smile she had just in the cafeteria had long since disappeared.
Anna turned her head and looked forward, and saw the two girls who bullied Natalie yesterday walking towards them. However, to Anna and Natalie's expectation, they stopped in front of Anna.
Anna thought about it carefully. She didn't seem to have done anything to make these two find her, right? She had only been here all day.
"Your name is Anna, right?" The tall girl looked at Anna arrogantly, as if even talking to Anna was a gift to her.
Anna blinked, as if she didn't hear what the other party said, she pulled Natalie and left, saying as she walked: "Let's go to the library and grab a seat while there are less people."
Natalie was stunned. Seeing that Anna completely ignored the two people, her mood became very good, and she whispered: "Why do you need to occupy a seat? There are a lot of seats in the library, and they are not always full."
Anna thought for a while, there were more than a hundred places in the study room and open-shelf library, so the membership of the association might only be of this order of magnitude.
Black Cloud City is very large. Anna estimates that the city has a population of 100,000. In this world, a city with such a population is already large enough. However, with such a large population, there are only a few hundred mages, which shows how valuable mages are.
After all, it is made of gold coins.
"Then let's choose a good location!" Anna said, "I'm telling you, if you choose a good location, your reading efficiency will be improved a lot."
"Hey, is it true? Is it because the concentration of natural elements in different places is different?"
"No. Think about it, if you are sitting in the aisle with people coming and going, how can you concentrate?"
"Oh... that's true! No wonder I couldn't remember when I read a book. It turned out to be because I was always sitting by the aisle!"
"That's not necessarily true. Your inability to remember may be because you have no talent."
"Ugh... Anna, how can you say that to me! Although I have no talent, but, I work hard!"
"Yes, all you need is hard work. Whether you have talent or not is not something you can control, but whether you work hard or not is completely in your hands. Don't complain about the things you can't control, but grab what you can control."
"What Anna says makes sense! From today on, I will live in the library! I must pass the promotion test next time!"
Anna and Natalie talked more and more energetically as if they were having a cross talk. Seeing the two of them walking away laughing, the two girls who were looking for trouble became livid with anger and chased after them unwillingly: "You guys stand aside... ah!"
The girls stopped in their tracks with a cry of surprise, and no more than a foot away in front of them, a golden "sharp arrow" pierced the ground and slowly dissipated.
The two of them looked pale, and the sudden golden spell attack frightened them. They looked sideways and saw the gloomy-faced Raymond Bailedford looking at them coldly.
"Don't let me see you causing trouble for them again." After Rotgar said that, he turned and left.
He discovered that Anna was not interested in the outstanding young people who came to her door. She only had magic in her eyes. However, now that she has become a mage, half of her long-awaited wish has been fulfilled. If an outstanding man appears next to her and silently helps her, she should take a few glances, right
This time, he planned to adopt a hard-to-get approach. He would help Anna, but he would also act like he didn't care about her, so he didn't believe she wouldn't take the bait.
After seeing Anna turn around due to the movement behind her and noticing him, Rotgar planned to leave. But out of the corner of his eye, he saw Anna running towards him.
He couldn't help but sneer in his heart, look, isn't this a success
Anna didn't expect the devil to suddenly appear. After being stunned for a moment, she saw that he was about to leave and quickly chased after him.
She wanted to express her affection to him immediately and make him convinced that his current body was very good and not to covet Leon's body!
