Act 197. twilight
The Asterl High School of Magic is located in the east of Trestan, closer to the center of Trestan than this dissertation review institution.
The school was founded fifty years ago, at the time of Isaris. When Lord Alberton came to prominence, the Kingdom of Aster, as the first country to become independent from the ancient magic empire, had always maintained good relations with mages, so it took this opportunity to establish the Asterl High School of Magic.
The school was formerly a royal academy that only recruited the children of nobles, but after it was changed to a magic academy, it began to recruit low-level mages from all walks of life regardless of their origin.
Here, there is no faction between students, and everyone can freely choose the courses they want to take, and as long as they pay the tuition fee and complete the exam, they can get a certain number of credits.
In order to obtain a diploma, there are two requirements, the first is to complete enough credits within three years, and the second is to have your thesis published in an academic journal with a rating of grade 3 or above.
The first condition is not difficult, as long as you don't take some particularly difficult courses, most people can complete them, but if you can't, you can spend more money to take other courses.
The second condition is really difficult, according to Reiner's previous investigation after coming into contact with Sur, although a third-level journal is a small journal of the level of "Monthly Alchemist Griffin", it is not so easy for a low-level mage's papers to be published in a regular academic journal.
Most people need to start preparing their dissertation content when they first enter the academy to successfully complete their research for publication within three years.
Reiner sat in the carriage, and the mages outside the thesis review committee still waited for an opportunity, but most of them were in vain.
The view from the window is constantly flowing, the Trastan River runs along the river, the wide Trastan River runs from west to east, and the horse-drawn carriages also walk on the road along the river, and you can see the sparkling lake and a few jumping fish at sunset.
The evening breeze from the lake brought a little coolness, and the sunset of the city of Trestan was a little cool, and Reiner lowered the curtains and turned his eyes to the car.
It was not a cheap rented carriage that could be found everywhere, but a private carriage for Parcival, much more spacious enough to seat six people comfortably, and the interior of the carriage was so elaborate that at first glance it looked like the car of some nobleman.
Trastan was developed much earlier than in a frontier town like Priest, especially along the perimeter of the Trestan River, where the roads were paved and horse-drawn carriages with the latest shock-absorbing wheels were barely felt on the wide road.
Percival sat across from Reiner, leaning against the window on the left, he opened the curtains and looked at the book in his hand in the afterglow of the setting sun, a book on elemental magic by Surrey of the Storm Council. Lord Newington, Reiner had seen it in the library before.
"That's a book about electromagnetic fields."
Reiner asked, the atmosphere in the car was really awkward, and instead of being silent, it was better to find something to talk about.
"Yes, Maurizio Sarri. Lord Newington and Clark. His Excellency Holland's theory is too profound, especially these four equations, although they seem simple, they are still too reluctant to fully understand them at my current level. ”
Parcival bookmarked the place where he had read, closed the book, and sighed helplessly.
"I think I used to be from the law department, but now I feel that my knowledge of mathematics is not enough."
"A lot of mages think that math doesn't matter, but maybe it's these irrelevant things that limit people's growth."
Reiner muttered, causing Percival to raise an eyebrow.
"We're here."
He looked at a house not far away, in the villa area, and didn't follow Reiner's words.
When the two of them stepped out of the carriage, the street lamps were already lit one after another, and the dim light dragged the shadows of people for a long time, this should be the residence of the teachers of the Asterl High School of Magic, many of the houses were already curling smoke, Reiner entered the courtyard, and saw the well-groomed garden.
On one side of the lawn was a kennel with a sleeping golden retriever lying in it, and on the food bowl in front of it was written the word "Parker", which seemed to be the dog's name.
As Percival pushed open the door and walked into the room, Reiner immediately felt a chill, a comfort brought by the circle that regulated the temperature.
Then, Reiner smelled a wonderful scent.
Sweet and sour, with a hint of creaminess, this is a food aroma that Reiner has never smelled before.
"Ah, you're back, huh, who is this?"
A head poked out of the kitchen, and a brown-haired woman looked at Reiner, her eyes slightly wide.
With her long hair coiled up and a beige apron, she looks quite young, and even if she is placed in the crowd, she is not easy to ignore.
"This is our new colleague, Reiner, let's take him to familiarize himself with the surroundings today, and come back for dinner by the way, okay?"
There was a certain tentative hint in Percival's tone, and it seemed that his status in this family was far inferior to that of his wife.
It's a strict wife again.
Reiner sighed inwardly.
"Of course, go wash it...... Ah, wait a minute. ”
In the middle of speaking, Percival's wife suddenly raised her left hand, and it could be seen that she was holding a chronograph pocket watch in her hand, which was making a ticking sound.
Without further ado, she immediately turned around, picked up a long spoon in front of the stove, put it into the pot, and began to stir.
It's just that she doesn't stir evenly, but against her pocket watch, stirring every once in a while.
"You two hurry up and wash your hands, the rest of the dishes...... Wait a minute. ”
As he spoke, Percival's wife interrupted the conversation again, stirring the spoon in her hand again.
“...... The rest of the dishes are ready, and it will be ...... in another two minutes Wait a minute. ”
The spoon stirred again, and the heat in the pot rose with the agitation, filling the aisle.
“...... You'll be ready for dinner, ah, Parcival, you go to the cupboard...... Hold on. ”
With the spoon moving again, Percival's wife stared at the chronograph pocket watch and continued.
“...... You go to the cupboard and get an extra set of cutlery, it's hard work. ”
After intermittently explaining the matter, Percival's wife returned to stirring the soup in the pot.
"I see, Lyza."
Far from being displeased by his wife's strange behavior, Percival agreed in a very gentle voice, and then showed Reiner the way.
"Reiner, the restaurant is just turning left in front of the hallway, you can go there and wait a while."
"Okay, okay."
Reiner nodded, and glanced at Percival's wife, who was immersed in cooking.
He was starting to worry a little about the dinner.
