"Yawn ......"

Walking on the way to the Mage Guild, Monia shrugged her head, forced her sleepy eyes open, and staggered forward - her mental state was very bad, Lahuana's bed was not big, and it was a little reluctant to sleep four people, so the mage insisted on making a bunk. Pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Originally, sleeping on the floor was not an unbearable thing for her, but she didn't expect that during the time she spent with Weina, she had become accustomed to finding a pillow to hug when she slept, and after leaving Weina, there was Fana or Liel to act as a role, but she was alone last night.

For the first time, the Master experienced what it feels like for a child to grow up and then leave his parents. (That's completely different, okay)

Naturally, she had insomnia.

The bad thing is that after insomnia, you still have to wake up on time the next morning and go to the Mage Guild.

The Mage Guild and the Elven Civic Center are two completely different areas, located in the southwest of the City of Hope, in a deserted area where Monia is unfamiliar with the city, and it would be unrealistic to expect her to take Fana and Liel on a difficult pathfinding journey. At the strong request of the two sisters, Lajuana had to ask a friend to take them on her behalf, and half-excursion, took them through most of the city to the sphere of influence of the Mage Guild.

The architectural style of the Mage Guild is completely different from that of the City of Hope, and the main body of the building is closer to that of a human, with the exception of the jungle buildings with few stars, which are basically the same as the mercenary halls in Mecarona City. Although this is very unremarkable, Monia still prefers this kind of reality to the elven style.

Just...... It's not because you can't climb trees!

"This hall is the office of the Mage Association, and the white tower is the Mage Tower of Lord Moya, and if you ask to see Lord Moya, you must first register in the association." Lawana smiled and said, "But after all, this is a place where mages come and go, so I'll wait for you here, go and go back quickly." ”

"Larcana, goodbye." (See you soon!) ）

"Hmm."

After waving goodbye, the mage led Fana and Liel into the building, easily found the office staff, and after filling out a form, a well-dressed woman led them through a few verifications before entering the White Tower. The White Tower has seven floors, and in terms of the layout of the Mage Tower, the top floor is the hub where the entire Mage Tower is controlled. Usually, the owner of the Mage Tower receives guests in a special reception room on the fifth or sixth floor, and the archmage named Moya is not exempt from the common man, and receives them in an office on the fifth floor.

"Hello, salute to the pioneers on the path of the ether."

The dignified and elegant elven woman pushed open the cedar door and stepped aside, and Monia led Fana and Liel into the room, saluting the female mage sitting in an office chair. Although the other party's appearance was blocked by a mountain of classics, and it was impossible to see it really, in the mage's perception, there was a dazzling existence like the dawn sun in front of him.

There can be no mistake, it's the archmage, and it's the archmage who has come a long way on the path of the ether.

"Kyle Jones? Right. The other party's voice was a little hoarse and low, but it was very magnetic and had a magical charm. It's just that Monia is more embarrassed that she seems to be saying a name that has nothing to do with her.

"No, my name is Monia Kesridge."

The mage stated.

"yes, sorry, I got it wrong." The archmage behind the mountain of books coughed twice at his mistake, then rummaged through the table, kicking up a cloud of dust, "Found it, it's Monia Kesrich." It is rare to have hope as a surname...... Junior mage, age ...... Seventy-eight? ”

"Yes."

The archmage behind the desk got up, and her beautiful face was unexpectedly young, only about twenty human women, but the vicissitudes she inadvertently revealed revealed her true age. She walked around the desk and walked in front of the mage, who seemed to lose her mind a little when she noticed him, but quickly retracted her expression and exclaimed with admiration, "What a young child, may the light of the ether bless you." ”

"These two are Eugarana Star and Eugariel Star." The archmage's gaze was biased towards the elven sisters behind Monia, looking at them with a smile on his face, "Sure enough, they are outstanding talents, but they don't seem to have really started to practice yet, do they have no mentor?" ”

"I only taught them the most basic meditation methods, as well as some of the common sense that a mage should know." Monia replied, then looked at the elven archmage with a rare double black face, "If I can, I'd like to ask Lord Moya to take them as your apprentice." ”

After saying that, the mage waited for Moya's reply with some trepidation. The mage talent that Fana and Liel had paid for at the cost of a part of their bodies was indeed almost incomparable, only a step worse than a "demigod" like her with primordial elven blood, but not a fraction worse than the so-called Chosen One. For them, the best mentor is the elven archmage in front of them, and in the Elven Forest, only she can fully realize their potential.

"It's been a long time since I had an apprentice...... the other party said, and there seemed to be a possibility of refusal in that quiet tone, but to Monia's relief, she didn't refuse, "If they want, let them follow me first." ”

"Thank you, Lord Moya," the mage said, bowing deeply.

"Mentor, okay." (Hello tutor sister!) ）

"Rare ability to read," the elven archmage looked at the elven sisters, as if he had heard Lil's heart, smiled slightly, and said to them, "It's a pity that I don't have any materials on hand now, if I want a gift, it will take a while." But rest assured, I'm sure you'll be satisfied with my gift to you. ”

"Thank you...... Mentor. (Thank you, Sister Mentor!) ）

The Elven Archmage just smiled, announcing the end of a topic.

"Lord Moya, there's one more question I'd like to ask for your help." Monia hesitated, "It's about custody, as a mage, I think I have the ability to take care of myself, so I want to fight for the right to live independently." ”

"The right to live independently?" The elven archmage didn't seem to react at once, and looked at it with confused eyes, but soon she showed a look of sudden realization, and looked at the mage with a smile without a hint of malice, "This can't be done, Monia, you are still young, and you have spent so much effort on learning spells, you will definitely encounter a lot of problems in your own life, so a guardian is necessary, and it is even more necessary." ”

"However, I am sure that I can take care of myself." Monia retorted eagerly.

"Don't be superstitious about your feelings," the elven archmage stretched out his index finger and shook it gently, "Feelings will deceive you, but I won't, I haven't really seen anyone of your age take care of themselves." ”

"But ......"

"There's nothing to do." The archmage said strongly, "This matter is over. ”

Monia still wanted to say something, but the archmage's strong spiritual coercion made her stand like this, unable to distinguish the spiritual opening at all, and could only listen to the other party change the topic: "Eugarana Xinghe Eugariel Star's apprentice identity confirmed, Monia Kesridge's mage identity confirmed." ”

She held her chin in thought, and the quill and scroll floated in the air and recorded automatically.

Then, her gaze returned to Monia.

"Mage, there are two paths before you right now, one is to become a forest ranger, and check the integrity of the locks at each node while guarding against poachers; The other is to work as a lecturer at the Elven Forest Mage Academy, teaching the apprentices the most basic spells and mage knowledge. ”

As her question was raised, the oppressive pressure on the mage dissipated, but the mage did not choose to continue arguing about the previous issue. Maybe the elven archmage gives people a sense of intimacy, but because of the other party's cordiality, we must not forget that the other party has come to the end of the mortal path, which can deter the terrifying existence of a country - after the other party expresses its position, blindly messing around, the end is completely predictable.

Therefore, she can only bury her unwillingness deep in her heart and seriously consider these two paths: it is foreseeable that the first path will come into contact with many details and even secrets of the Elven Forest Mystery on the one hand, and on the other hand, it may encounter a certain amount of battles. The other path is to become a teacher in the mage academy. Monia is more familiar with this position, after all, the mage college she graduated from is the mage training base of the Mughal school.

The lecturer mentioned here is very different from the usual Yishan instructor, the instructor usually only needs to impart some basic knowledge, and the more in-depth ones, and only the instructor who has reached the advanced level will teach after choosing his own apprentice. This is not to hide secretly, but the mage's resources are limited, the teacher's energy is limited, and only the most qualified apprentices are qualified to truly enter the temple of the ether.

"I chose to work as a lecturer at the Elves' Mage Academy."

Soon, the mage made a decision - she didn't want to continue fighting for the foreseeable amount of time after going through the path of her true name, and she didn't want to get too deep in the Elven Forest, so choosing the first path and becoming a ranger was something she didn't even think about. And the second way, although as a lecturer, facing a group of children is not the job she wants, but since reality does not give her so many choices, all she can do is choose a less bad one.

"Don't you think about exercising your fighting ability?" The elven archmage was a little surprised by Monia's choice, and when she noticed that the mage had no intention of changing her decision, she shook her head, "Since this is your choice, then I can only respect it." Starting tomorrow, you will report to the Elven Mage Academy, where there is indeed a shortage of manpower. ”

"As a perk of this job, you have two sunrise meditation hours per day in the Mage Tower, which can add up to thirty-six sunrise hours unless there are special circumstances," the Elven Archmage continued, "You should know the benefits of meditation in the Mage Tower, and I don't need to say more. ”

Yes, Monia knows, of course she does. Every mage has the dream of having his own mage tower, being able to defend himself against enemies, being free to experiment without worrying about safety, and most importantly, to meditate more efficiently than any other meditation place.

Before the mage came to the Elven Forest, she dreamed of building her own mage tower in the Elven Forest, she knew that with the wealth accumulated by the elves, it was not difficult to build the mage tower, but when she came to the Elven Forest, she knew that she was taking it for granted, the elves may not lack wealth, but the rare labor force makes it difficult to break ground for large-scale civil engineering projects, and only Lord Moya has the mage tower in the entire Elven Forest.

It's enviable.

Now that she was able to meditate in the Mage's Tower, even if it was only two sunsets a day, it was very precious to her. You must know that the efficiency of meditation in the mage tower is at least fifteen times more than that of ordinary meditation, and even the meditation place used by mages to replace the mage tower is only seven times more efficient, and it still has to be rotated on a weekly basis - this is why there are so many traveling mages among the mages of the school, and they leave the school not only to seek the opportunity to exercise and witness the wider world, but also to find the resources needed to build their own meditation ground.

Beneath the glossy exterior, the mages are also under heavy pressure.

Monia left the school and went to the Elven Forest in large part because of this pressure. Even if she is treated much better than ordinary mages as a disciple of the archmage, there is no need for her to seize the living space of others, especially when there are better choices.

As it turned out, she was right.

She came here and has no regrets.

ps: The first time I wrote an outline in this book, it took me a day yesterday, and I was surprised to find that I struggled to write less than a thousand words for the outline of the daily part, and then I wrote the combat part, and I was like taking hormones, am I a battle maniac...... No, I just like to write about the more confrontational parts, at least, that's what I think.

PS2: It's over too soon, and this volume should be about thirty chapters over.
