The edges of the Majaro crater are shrouded in mist-like clouds, making them look like ethereal shadows.

A glass window in the corridor was blown open by the wind, the north wind blew the residual snow on the windowsill to the floor, the ceiling lamp in the corridor was blown violently by the wind, I went up to close the window, who knew that the wind direction changed, the white silk curtain was sucked out of the window by the strong wind, I had to put down the white paper, hold on to the window and reach out with difficulty to pull the curtain back.

A hand reached out from behind me and helped me hold the window and pull the curtain back smoothly.

I turned back to thank the man, only to find Master Freeman, the head of education, standing behind me, his face like a 'J' on a playing card, his two black, thin upturned beards were particularly expressive, he lowered his eyelids to look at the white paper bound in the parchment in my hand, and said to me in a light tone: "Jijia, the bell for class has already ringed, why are you still standing in the hallway in a daze instead of going to class?"

"The other side is the third-grade teaching area, and if I'm not mistaken, your classroom should be downstairs!" he asked, glancing at the classroom sign on the other side of the hallway.

Director Freeman ...... "I was just about to explain that I was just brewing my emotions at the door of the classroom, after all, it takes a little courage to step onto the podium for the first time.

"No need to explain, hurry up and go to class, not every teacher can tolerate their students being late!" Director Freeman interrupted me, waved his hand softly, and said to me.

A few seniors slipped through the hallway, trying to sneak into the classroom while Director Freeman was teaching me.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am also warning you with this sentence. Director Freeman added a timely sentence to their backs, but unfortunately those seniors didn't dare to look back at all, nor did they dare to stop, and quickly disappeared at the door of the classroom.

"That...... Director, I'm in this classroom. I straightened up and said to Director Freeman.

"How do you take third-year magic class?" asked Director Freeman, a little surprised.

I turned my head to look at the bronze classroom door and said to Dean Freeman, "The Academy's academic affairs have arranged for me to take an elective course on Magical Runes in the Department of Water here, Director Freeman!"

“......”

Director Freeman froze in place, waved at me three seconds later, and then turned to leave.

......

Walking into the noisy classroom, the door wrapped in the copper skin made a long 'creak' sound, and the classroom quickly fell silent.

I stepped up to the podium, and the eyes of the seniors and seniors in the classroom in various magical robes fell on me, and they looked at me in surprise, but luckily no one was whistling or booing at the same time.

I stood on the podium, put the white paper bound in magic parchment on the podium, and pretended to be calm and said to this group of third-year seniors and seniors: "The Academic Affairs Office of the college arranged for me to give a class to all the seniors, then in the next class, I will introduce to you this special water-based magic rune, good afternoon, seniors, I am a second-year fire class magic student of the college, my name is Ji Jia!"

After listening to my self-introduction, the classroom exploded with a bang.

The seniors in the classroom are talking to each other, and the seniors are also whispering, and everyone doesn't want to believe this fact.

"Damn, isn't this the kid who defeated Senior William on the roof of the teaching building?"

"It's really him!" immediately chimed in.

"I've heard he's from the North. "Then someone in the class introduced my origin to the students around me.

There are also some people in the know who told me something about my love life: "What is this, he also married Teacher Qige and His Royal Highness Ying Li, the princess of Haiyinsi, as a first-year magic student, how can he come to teach us a lesson?"

Then people started asking me questions, "What can he teach us?"

Just when the classroom was in chaos, the back door of the classroom was quietly pushed open, and several rune teachers quietly walked in from outside the door, Sean Scholar and Vice Dean Hastings were also in this group of people, and the magic student sitting in the back row couldn't help but exclaim: "Vice Dean, Sean Scholar ......"

Everyone in the classroom looked back at the door of the back door, and the classroom suddenly became silent, and one of the seniors in gorgeous magic robes got up from his seat, and with a hint of apprehension, asked the magicians who walked in through the back door, "Teacher Constantine, Teacher Albert, Teacher Aitley, ...... you?"

Led by Vice Dean Hasting, these magic teachers sat in the empty seats at the back of the classroom in a very orderly manner, and one of the rune teachers raised a finger and whispered to the magic students in the classroom, "Shhh ”

"Jiga, can you start now?" asked Vice Dean Hasting, raising his hand in his seat and in a calm voice.

"Yes, Vice Dean!" I quickly straightened up on the stage and replied loudly.

I picked up a piece of blue chalk from the lectern, quickly drew a wonderful water-based rune on the blackboard, and then tried to relax my mind a little, and said: "As we all know, there are currently three hundred and seventy-seven water-based magic runes known to the Grimm Empire, but the primary water-based magic runes we can access are even less than two hundred, and this rune is a special rune that is completely outside of these runes, it comes from a Cana magic book......"

"It's not the same way it draws runes ...... past"

“...... Therefore, this kind of magic pattern stacked in the shape of fish scales is the basic brushwork of this rune, you can try it and experience it. ”

This new water rune is also a big challenge for me, it is not difficult to explain the theory on the blackboard, but the difficulty is to use the water magic element to activate this rune in front of me, and I can only draw it successfully two or three times out of ten, so the most embarrassing thing for me is to condense the water element five times in a row to draw this rune similar to "д".

It wasn't until the last time that a relatively stable magical rune pattern formed in front of me, and the light of the water elemental flashed intermittently with light blue lines, and the whole classroom burst into applause.

I took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the sweat from my forehead, this method of drawing stacked lines was also told to me by Princess Ireliel the day before yesterday through the mouth of Ying Li, I can only do this for the time being.

The bell rang for the end of class, and I picked up the magic white paper on the podium and slowly walked out of the stepped classroom, and the seniors in the classroom stood up one after another, even the vice dean, Lord Hasting, and the Shaun scholars, as well as the rune teachers, who were sitting in the back row, also stood up and watched me leave.

In this way, I became the youngest rune teacher in the history of the Royal Academy of Magic, although I can only get my hands on five very strange water runes.

......

Walking through the square in front of the teaching building of the college, there are always some seniors and seniors who greet me very friendly.

There is a small artificial lake around the water system ecological park in the back garden of the college, the artificial lake is surrounded by a lush forest, in summer, this path is completely obscured by lush foliage, few people will take this path, but in winter the leaves wither, this path is revealed again, I and Noah, Shirley Newman, and Senior Vernon walked through this path to the back door of the college, and out of the back door is the back street of the magic academy, there are many magic shops on this street.

Erica-senpai and Halib-senpai's potions shop is just around the corner, but it is said that the potions shop closed down last week, and recently, the entire potions market in the imperial capital has been sluggish, and only with a stable supply of magical herbs can the potions shop survive.

A few of us came to the back street of the Academy of Magic, in fact, to find a shop on the street for Senior Vernon, after Senior Vernon successfully refined the red copper solution in the laboratory building of the Academy, he couldn't always occupy the laboratory, first, the laboratory resources of the Royal Academy of Magic were relatively limited, and secondly, the laboratory on the side of the Academy still lacked privacy after all, so Senior Vernon and Noah discussed wanting to rent a shop outside the Academy and set up an alchemy studio.

“...... So, when we get to the third year, you're going to give us a few special rune lessons?" Noah asked, looking at me with a depressed expression.

The snow in the part of the college's backstreet near the high courtyard wall on the south side showed no signs of melting, but it was trampled by pedestrians, and the road was a little slippery.

Where there is snow, it always reminds people of the north, and the surface of the Benma River has almost been frozen during this time, and those barbarians on the ice and snow tundra should also cross the Benma River into the north.

I lowered my head to dodge an elm branch sticking out diagonally from the courtyard wall, and said, "Probably not, I think the rune teachers in the academy should master the drawing methods of these five water runes by then!"

"What do you think of that shop?" said Senior Vernon, pausing and looking across the street at a small two-story western-style building facing the street.

The upper and lower floors of this small western-style building, there is an attic on the roof, there is a professional manager standing at the door of the building, he saw Vernon senior and Noah hurriedly beckoned, we crossed the street, the manager took out a bunch of keys from his backpack and opened the door, and invited us to go in to see the pattern inside, this is a common single-building structure in the imperial capital, the first floor is a very spacious living room, the back is connected to the small dining room and kitchen, next to two guest rooms and a staircase leading to the upstairs, upstairs is the master's living room, there are three bedrooms, one of the small bedrooms with a terrace, and a simple attic at the ridgeThere is also a small basement dug under the stairs leading to the second floor, and there are more than 20 square meters of small cross-courtyard behind the small western-style building, and the whole building is compact and elegant.

This type of building is very common in the third block, and the biggest advantage of this small western-style building is that it is only a wall away from the Royal Academy of Magic.

The professional manager of the housing and property union took us into the living room and introduced us to the origin of the small western-style building: "The owner of this room is a noble lord of a southern province, and he will only sell the property in the imperial capital because of the bankruptcy caused by the defeat of a plane war......

Noah and Senior Vernon walked upstairs and downstairs, and it was obvious that Senior Vernon liked the little western-style building, and he even went around the backyard covered with snow.

Noah waved his hand impatiently at the professional manager and said, "Okay, can you come up with a little fresh reason, this kind of old-fashioned story has been told by you to be rotten, talk about the price!"

The professional manager wiped the sweat from his forehead, his face was full of smiles, and said to Noah: "Needless to say, all magicians can also see that this attic is in a very advantageous location, and the current rental price of this kind of attic in the third block has been very transparent, three gold coins per month, at least for a year." ”

Only then did I know that the monthly rent of such a small western-style building actually cost three gold coins, no wonder those villas in the imperial capital civilian area were shared by several civilian families, but the price of this kind of attic in the sixth block could be at least halved.

"Is this attic for sale?" Noah asked the manager, patting the dusty couch.

It could be seen that this small western-style building seemed to have been shelved for a long time, and the room was covered with thick dust.

The manager was slightly stunned, in his eyes, we, the magic students of the Royal Academy of Magic, will want to stay in the imperial capital when the graduation season is approaching, and will probably find a house in the imperial capital, with the living allowance of the magician to rent a house in the third block, gritting his teeth can still hold on, but few magic students who are close to graduation will directly pay for a small western-style building, and the magic students who mainly have a noble family background will not choose to live here, and most of the graduates from civilian families cannot afford it.

He said to Noah courteously, "Of course it is sold, if you settle the whole payment at once, one hundred and fifty magic crystals." If it is a secured installment, a down payment of thirty magic crystals, and then you can repay three gold coins per month, and after thirty years this attic will be yours, of course, if you can repay one magic crystal a month, you only need to repay it for fifteen years. ”

Noah glanced at Senior Vernon and made a decision directly for him: "This kind of attic, of course, has to be settled at one time, but one hundred and fifty magic crystals ......"

The manager hurriedly patted his chest to ensure that this small western-style building was of good quality and low price: "I assure you, this price is the lowest price in this attic!"

Noah shook his head and said, "That's not what I meant, one hundred and fifty magic crystals can be paid to you in full, but ......"

He made some requests, but he didn't know what to say, so he set his eyes on Senior Vernon, who was also at a loss, and his eyes fell on me, I hesitated for a moment, and said to the manager: " We hope that by the time this little bungalow is handed over to us, the roof will be refurbished, the outside walls will need to be repainted, the floors in the house will be so old, look at the places where the curtains are always exposed to the sun have faded, the bathroom is so small, the bathtub inside is cracked, I wonder if these fabric furniture can still be used?......"

"I can promise you...... The roof has been refurbished, the exterior walls have been repainted, the floors, the room wallpaper, the curtains have all been replaced, and I can give you a brand new set of walnut furniture. The manager immediately committed.

It doesn't cost much to repair the house and replace the furniture, but once you do it, you know that it takes more time than you can imagine, and you will have no clue to do it.

As if he was buying himself a house, Noah waved his hand again and said to the manager, "Then it's settled, do you bring a magic contract?"

The manager hurriedly took out a magic scroll from his backpack and said with a smile: "Bring it, Your Excellency the Magician." ”

"When will the renovation be completed and you can move in?" Noah asked, holding down the magic contract scroll and staring at the manager.

The manager immediately replied: "The interior decoration is easy, it can be done in about a week, and as for the roof renovation and wall painting, it will take until spring." ”

In this way, with Noah's intervention, Senior Vernon bought a small western-style building of his own in the third block of the imperial capital......
