Act XXXIII
Grantia had not experienced so-called teleportation magic before.
She traveled from her hometown of Bunajien to this Christine for nearly half a month, after all, Bunajien is a poor country on the edge of the kingdom, and Christine can be regarded as the hinterland of the kingdom, the land of rich fish and water.
Grantia only felt a wave of vertigo hit her brain, like a magical backlash from casting too many spells, which she had never experienced since she was sent to the school hospital after casting spells many times when she first came to the school because she was too excited.
She felt as if she was floating in the middle of the ocean, and as the waves swayed, a wave of vomiting welled up in her throat, and Grantia's eyes were dizzy, and she couldn't see anything around her, and she could only hold down the table with her palms to try to ease the feeling of nausea.
Then, before Grantia could react, all the discomfort disappeared at once, and she felt her feet on the earth again.
As her eyes gradually focused, the first thing Grandia saw was the faces of several contestants.
It seems that Grantia is not alone in feeling uncomfortable.
She subconsciously glanced at Alyssa next to her, even this genius magical girl frowned slightly at this time, and she looked uncomfortable.
It was only then that Grandia noticed the surrounding scenery.
Gone are the original paintings of the headmasters, replaced by even older frescoes, depicting ancient legends familiar to Grandia and others, the great battle of chaos and order, the heroes of the goddess, and the monsters from the abyss.
[Fireless Afterglow: Interesting, it seems that this teleportation circle has been around for a long time. 】
Rosen's words flashed in his vision, but Grantia didn't have the heart to reply now.
For she found herself in a large hall, surrounded by torches that had left a few shadows, and she walked through the hall and saw something at the other end of the hall.
It was a sculpture.
The figure in the sculpture, dressed in a simple mage robe, with a spiraling staff in his hand, was quite young, looking to be in his early twenties, but the whole person exuded an aura of wisdom, and his dark eyes stared into the void.
The whole statue is vivid, and if it weren't for the fading of the passage of time, it would have been easy to mistake it for a real person in the dim light of the fire.
"Who is this?"
Grantia asked Alyssa.
"Shouldn't you be worried about where this is?"
Alyssa was amused by Grantia's somewhat leapy thinking, and then said.
"That is the most outstanding mage in history, the only spellcaster to step into the realm of the Sage for thousands of years, Veren Eslim, and that staff is the legendary weapon of the Oath Staff of the Guardian of Osiris. ”
Hearing Alyssa's explanation, it dawned on Grandia.
It turned out that this was one of the Sages, Veren Eslif, who had the title of Law Weaver.
So young?
Grantia subconsciously thought that she was beautifying the other party, after all, according to her cognition, long-term hard work is essential if she wants to achieve success in magic, and such a young sage, I'm afraid even a genius will be difficult to explain.
"Dear students, welcome to one of Christine's most hidden shrines, and it is precisely because of this ruin that Christine Royal Academy chose to be established in this place. ”
Principal Trastein said, releasing his hand from Alyssa and Grantia's shoulders.
"This is also an undisclosed reward of the magic competition, and that is that those who make it to the finals will be able to come here and meditate until the finals. ”
"Is there anything special about this, Mr. Headmaster?"
Martha, a girl with a single ponytail, asked, she was the first time to participate in the competition, and it was also the first time to enter the finals, and the relevant information here was not even noted in any of the classics.
"Of course, you've seen the statue too, it's the abode of the Law Weaver, Veren Ashlive, where he rests, and the air here is several times more concentrated than the outside, making it an excellent place for spellcasters to practice. ”
Hearing Principal Trestan's words, everyone also closed their eyes and sensed the flow of elements around them.
"It's true that the elements here are much more abundant than those outside, and they can increase the casting efficiency by at least 30%. ”
Alto, the emaciated teenager spoke.
"But why isn't there any mention of this place in all the books about magic competitions, or even about Christine Royal Academy?"
Martha continued to ask, if it is a simple secrecy measure, it seems that this is too leaky, you know, whether there is a subjective will or not, Christine has been established for hundreds of years, it is impossible to be completely free from the slightest rumor, and even the school strange talk has not mentioned this place.
It's just so weird.
"That's the magic laid down by the Sage, so you might as well ask Hamilton, it's not the first time he's here. ”
Principal Trestan looked at the tall boy.
"Hamilton, what's going on?"
A boy next to him asked.
"There's a mysterious power here, and while I remember everything that happened here, as soon as I wanted to tell someone else, I would go into a trance and eventually move the conversation to another place. ”
Hamilton shrugged helplessly.
"Any attempt to reveal information about this place, whether direct or indirect, to write, will ultimately fail, and only when you are here can you speak of this ruin, as I do now. ”
"Of course, only I, as the headmaster, have the slightest authority to lead others into here, but I can't talk about anything related to this place on a daily basis unless I go through certain formalities. ”
Principal Trastein smiled and continued.
"I'm going to give you permission to come and go here as you please, but first, please stand up and assemble. ”
He led a few teachers to the other side of the hall, under the statue.
Grantia looked at Alyssa, then stood up as well, following the other in front of the teachers.
[Ashes without fire: This place doesn't sound like it's all about it.] 】
Lawson's words came from the field of vision, and Grandia was a little surprised, why could the other party discuss freely even if he was not here?
[Ultramarine Fortress Scholar: Isn't this relic only for those who are in it to discuss, why can you too?]
She couldn't help but ask.
Soon, the other party gave a reply.
[Ashes without fire: Of course I can, as long as I bypass the barrier of this law, of course I can discuss it freely. 】
