Act XXVIII
Time flies, and after the primaries of the magic competition, Grantia learns and lives as usual, brushing up on the forums and chasing serials until the day when the results are announced.
It was a winter day as always, and the snow-covered treetops shook a little snow from time to time, smashing on the heads of passers-by, although the sun was shining, but the air that seemed to be about to freeze was still cold, and it would not be warmed up by the sunshine.
Even with the temperature-regulating apprentice robes, many students wore knitted scarves and buried their faces deep in the fluffy fabric, and many more, of course, chose to huddle in their dormitories and keep warm by the fire when there were no classes.
It's the coldest day of the year.
Legend has it that even dragons fall into a deep sleep to escape the cold at such a time of year, and everything falls silent and the world is covered in snow.
The Orinsis League in the north, the famous city of the Thousand Islands, at this time all the islands are also connected by the frozen sea, which is a unique scene in winter.
However, in Christine, which is relatively south, such a winter is not rare, and this year it is because of the arrival of the magic tide that there will be such a long snow period.
When the results of the magic competition were announced, Grantia had the saddest day of her life.
Because "The Forgotten Name" is finished.
When Grantia saw "The whole book is finished", she even thought it was a problem with the display of the mobile terminal, she couldn't help but read it several times, and went to the comment area to flip through several pages of posts, before finally being able to confirm that this book is indeed over.
In fact, judging from the plot, the end is just a matter of time, all the foreshadowing has been closed, and the characters have ushered in their own endings, but when it comes to the day when the book is finished, Grantia is still a little melancholy.
Like the wailing readers in the comment section, she left her own feelings, wrote a long article unconsciously, and of course, expressed her sincere expectations for the author's new work at the end.
When she woke up in the morning, Grantia was surprised to find that her book review had been added.
The essence function is equivalent to a reminder, a symbol of quality reply, and more importantly, it is operated by the author himself, in other words, the original author has read Grandia's book review.
This made Grantia, who was depressed by the end, feel a little happy, and even forgot that today was the day when the finalists were announced.
"Grantia, today seems like the day the results will be announced?"
With a cup of hot chocolate in hand and a small bag of cream cookies on the table, Lottie is now in the final stages of final revision, with most classes long over, and students nervously revising for their exams after the New Year.
"Well, it seems so. ā
Glancing at the calendar hanging on the wall, Grantia remembered what day it was.
"In the lobby of the main building?"
Recalling the instructions in the entry brochure she had received when she registered, Grantia stood up and was about to leave the door.
"Wait, Grantia. ā
Lottie called out to Grantia, causing the girl to turn around.
"What's the matter, do you want to be together?"
"That's not it, Grantia, you're still in your pajamas. ā
Pointing to Grantia, Lottie said helplessly.
Grandia only looked down at herself at this time, the light pajamas outlined the curves of the body, the slender and white legs were exposed, and the feet in slippers were small and exquisite.
"Well, IāI'm going to change my clothes!"
Her cheeks were a little crimson, and Grantia hurriedly snapped back again.
......
Main Teaching Building.
There were already many students sitting in the hall, all of whom were contestants of the magic competition, and the huge hall, at first glance, was almost full, which made the originally cold air become hot, and you could get a glimpse of how popular the magic competition was.
The students sitting in the seats also gathered in twos and threes to discuss their respective topics.
"Alas, there will definitely be no way to advance this time, I didn't want to come over, but I have to die to understand. ā
"I've heard that our group is the hardest, and it's because of that Siegfriel!"
"I don't know who will be in the finals this year, but alas, it's exciting to think about having dinner with Her Royal Highness the Princess. ā
"Come on, come on, bet, there is a jackpot of thirty gold coins in all!"
"I've heard people say that this year's first year is very strong, and there are at least four seeded players, especially Alyssa Troester, who is like a predetermined winner. ā
"It's just a little girl, I'm still a seventh-year Hamilton, he has participated in three magic competitions, each time he has successfully qualified, and each time he brings a completely different work, this time is the last year, he must be holding back. ā
In the corner of the noisy classroom, a girl with an indifferent expression was sitting quietly.
She's Alyssa Treist.
Completely ignoring the noise around her, and the comments mixed with her, Alyssa just silently looked at the book in her hand, exuding an air of no one to approach.
But there are always people who are not afraid of death, and when I saw a boy, he walked straight to Alyssa's side and knocked lightly on the table.
"Alyssa Terrest, you look laid-back. ā
It's Will Sandersen.
He was not in the nightmarish Siegfrier group, so he successfully demonstrated the magic guide that gathered the crystallization of his family's wisdom, and he was naturally full of confidence that he would advance.
In his eyes, most of the students in this school are garbage, and only a few are worth befriending, and although Alyssa Tray is one of them, the cold and arrogant attitude of the other party really annoys Will, so he subconsciously regards the other party as an imaginary enemy.
But Alyssa completely ignored Will, and still looked at the book to herself, which made the young master's face a little ugly.
Since only contestants can enter here, Will doesn't have those little followers around him, and now he looks a little thin, but he still has an aggressive momentum and sits directly next to Alyssa.
"I heard that your group seems to be in charge of that Siegfriel, hehe, it's miserable, that group's success rate is probably not even one percent, it seems that you have to stop here. ā
He spoke in a very provocative tone, trying to provoke the other person.
But Alyssa ignored it, only put down the book slightly, then tilted her head slightly, and said to Will.
"I'm afraid you're sitting in someone else's place. ā
"What?"
This sudden word made Will choke a little, and he thought about it, this genius girl didn't seem to have any friends around her, so he asked rhetorically.
"And whose position do you say this is?"
Alyssa glanced at the main entrance of the hall, then said coldly to Will.
"Look, she's coming. ā
Her words made everyone around her, including Will, look at the door of the hall when they heard the conversation between the two.
I saw Grantia, standing there a little out of breath, looking blankly at the bustling hall.
Alyssa closed the book, stood up slightly, and beckoned to Grantia. 8)
