"Then, Ini, if you have something to say, just say it." Annelotte said to Inelise after completing the examination. She could see that this little girl had been reluctant to talk to her since she left Regnar. It seemed that she still had something to say.

"Sister Anne..." Inelise said with some frustration, "I'm getting anxious again."

"Afraid?" Annelotte was a little surprised: "Why are you so anxious?"

"It's just..." Inelise thought for a moment, then blushed: "Just seeing Sister Irene can so easily cheer up Brother Regnar, I feel a little unwilling... Why can Sister Irene do this? I can't do it? So I'm a little anxious...I'm afraid that Brother Regnar will think I'm useless."

"..." Annelotte looked at the little girl burying her head lower and lower, but suddenly smiled softly. She reached up and gently scratched Enelise's nose, then said, "Young fool."

"Huh?" Inelise raised her head and looked at Annelotte with big puzzled eyes.

"Yini has never been a useless person." Annelotte's voice was very soft, but also very serious: "You have a very good theoretical magic talent, and now you also have the ability to cast spells. No one will think that a Mages are for useless people, even if you are still a low-level mage."

“…”

"Moreover." Annelotte continued: "So what if you are useless? That guy can't possibly abandon you or hate you because of such a thing, right?"

"But..." Inelise murmured, "But I really want to be like you and Sister Irene, able to help Brother Regnar."

"As long as you want, just take your time." Annelotte replied: "And, Yi Ni, there is no need for you to imitate us deliberately. Each of us is different."

"Is it different?" Enelise blinked.

"Yes. Due to experience or personality, Irene is naturally good at understanding other people's psychology. Therefore, she can easily cheer up the lost Regnar. For that guy, Irene is naturally good at understanding the psychology of others. Get comfort and a gentle haven. No one else can do this." Annelotte organized her thoughts and then said: "But you are different, Yi Ni. You are born to make that guy happy and make him laugh. People, although you have different definitions in his mind, in essence, there is no difference between good and bad, high or low."

"Make brother happy?" Inelise repeated. She thought about it carefully, and then her eyes gradually glowed: "Yes! Sister Anne! I understand!"

"Then, let's go out!"

"OK."

"Hey, by the way, Sister Anne."

"how?"

"Sister Anne, what do you think your position is in Brother Regnar's heart?"

"I have nothing to do with that guy, Yini, don't talk nonsense!"

"Humph, but why are you blushing? Wow! Sister Anne, I was wrong!"

When the two people came out of the study, Inelise was covering her head with both hands, looking pitiful and about to cry. On the other side, Annelotte's pretty face was slightly red, and her plump breasts were rising and falling slightly. She didn't know if she was angry.

"Wow, Yi Ni, how did you mess with Annie?" Regna quickly went up and rubbed the top of Inelise's head.

"..." Inelise looked resentful, but now that Annelotte was beside her, she didn't dare to say anything.

"It has nothing to do with you!" Annelotte said coldly.

"Okay, okay... So, what are the results of the test?" Regnar smiled bitterly and pushed Inelis to Irene, while the half-elf threw a pain-relieving spell. After such a long period of practice and practice, Irene has become very familiar with the use of healing magic. This kind of low-level magic can be said to be easily mastered.

After taking pains, Inelise also raised her head and looked at Annelotte. Annelotte did not tell her the results of the examination just now. So she was still very nervous at this time. After all, this result was related to whether she could obtain the enviable status of a mage in the future.

Everyone focused their nervous eyes on Annelotte. Annelotte smiled and then said: "No problem. Through the test I just conducted, I found that Yi Ni's brain has formed a spiritual domain. Although it is different from other There are some differences in the spiritual realm of a mage, but I don’t think it has any impact, and she can become a qualified mage.”

"Great!" Inelis was the first to jump up.

Regnar and Irene were obviously more attentive than the little girl. They noticed a detail: "Some differences? What are the differences?"

Annelotte looked at Irene and explained: "I think you all should understand that the most important criterion for judging whether a person can become a mage is whether he has a spiritual realm."

"That's right." Regnar nodded.

"In fact, everyone has a spiritual realm."

"Huh? Everyone has a spiritual realm? Doesn't that mean I can also become a mage?"

"If you can become a mage, I can become a sword master like my father!" Annelotte complained mercilessly.

"..." Regnar muttered, "Isn't this what you just said?"

"I haven't finished speaking yet. Yes, in fact, everyone has a spiritual realm, but not everyone can become a mage. And the most important difference here is the form of the spiritual realm." Annelotte glanced at Reg He took a look, and then continued to explain: "If you want to use a metaphor, the human spirit is like a ball of gas. If there is no restraint, they will scatter around like gas and eventually disappear completely. And the reason why this did not happen , because living things are born with a shell that binds their own spirits."

"And mages don't have this shell, right?" Irene guessed, and then she shook her head: "No, it should be that the form of restraint is different."

"Yes, Irene, you are right." Annelotte continued: "For normal people, the shell that binds his spirit is like an airtight iron ball. It is difficult for outside spiritual forces to enter, and one's own spirit It’s also difficult to release power. And if you can’t release your mental power, you naturally won’t be able to control the magic around you.”

"What about the mage's?" Regnar couldn't help but ask.

"The shell that binds the mage's spirit is more like a balloon. It can expand or contract freely, and when needed, it can also release its own spirit or sense the spiritual power of the outside world." Annelotte replied: "This is the relationship between you and me. the difference between."

"Okay, okay, I know I can't become a mage, so Annie, you don't have to chase her..." Regnar looked dejected.

Annelotte felt a little happy for no reason when she saw Regnar's appearance, and she continued: "The form that bound Yini's spirit before was very vague. It could barely scale, and it could also release a small amount of energy. Psychic power. But as I said, this level does not make her a qualified mage."

"Then why did Yi Ni suddenly become like this?" Irene asked with some confusion.

Annelotte hesitated for a moment and then said: "Maybe it has something to do with the last time we were unconscious."

“…”

"Although I can't remember clearly now, I remember you said that I released a very strong spiritual storm at that time. It even destroyed many houses." Annelotte thought for a while, and then followed this The train of thought continued: "I guess I may have blessed Ini with some magic to prevent mental shock. However, that spell probably did not completely block the mental impact, which is also the reason why Ini fell into a coma."

"Then what?" Regnar asked.

"Then..." Annelotte thought again, and after confirming that there were no flaws in her speculation, she answered: "I think it may be that the power of that mental shock was just right. It just weakened the influence of Yi Ni's mental domain on her own spirit. The degree of restraint has not completely destroyed her spiritual realm. Therefore, the form of Yi Ni's spiritual realm now just meets the requirements for becoming a mage."

"Is there such a coincidence?" Regnar opened his eyes wide.

"Except for this, I can't think of any other reason." Annelotte said lightly: "Besides, do you want to hear something more coincidental? Ini's mental domain is very resilient after being impacted, at least in the In my opinion, if she studies hard and meditates every day, she will have no problem becoming a high-level mage in the future!"

"Really?!" The other three people shouted in surprise.

"Why should I lie?" Annelotte said, and she added: "Also, maybe because of the impact of my mental shock, the nature of the spiritual energy in Ini's mental domain has become very different from mine. Similar. A mage can only judge whether there are other mages around by sensing whether there is spiritual energy of a different nature than his own nearby. Now Yi Ni’s spiritual energy is almost the same as mine, so I haven’t noticed it in the past few days. The reason for the spiritual energy she radiates.”

"Is it like a drop of water dropping into a glass of water?" Eileen understood.

"That's right." Annelotte nodded. That's it. If a drop of water is mixed into a glass of water, you won't be able to detect the position of the drop of water because they are completely blended together. And if you drop a stone into a glass of water, you can see it clearly at a glance.

"In short." Regnar stood up: "There is no harm in Yi Ni suddenly becoming a mage this time, only benefits, right?"

"That should be the case." Annelotte nodded: "But I can't guarantee it, because this situation is too rare, and I'm not sure what will happen next. But for now, everything is fine. of."

"That's good. I'll look for some information later. If I can't get there, I'll just ask Master Mel." Regnar finally felt relieved. He held Yi Ni in both hands and spun around: " Hahahaha, Yi Ni is also a mage now!"

"Brother hates me! Put me down!" Although Yi Ni said this, the smile on her face was stronger than anyone else's.

"Eni." Annelotte saw that several people were so happy, and she was also very happy. Her heart moved, and she suddenly asked: "The magic academy is about to be built. Do you want to go there to study?"
