The world world doesn't stop because Sivi's invitation is rejected by Sophia—even if Sophia just needs to think about it.

In fact, Sivi feels that the time has been running out lately.

In preparation for the next course, he kept exercising his combat skills for the new dungeon, and experimented with various alchemy recipes again and again alone. These things took up a lot of his time, and rumors about headless trolls in the academy were getting worse.

More than one student has claimed to have seen a headless troll lord.

This also forced the professors to accept the proposal of the head of Bruno to patrol at night in shifts.

There is also a small episode here.

At that meeting, several professors objected to the fact that Sivi, who was a junior mage, also participated in the patrol.

They believe that Sivi doesn't have enough self-protection when facing the trolls.

Among them, Professor Barnick, who has been robbed of the aura of the most popular professor by Sivi, has the greatest opinion - they believe that even if they are highly regarded among the students, the real battle depends on the rank.

However, Sivi proved by his actions that he was not here, at least the professors of mid-level mages - he invited Barnik to a friendly duel.

In the duel, Sivi directly dragged Bannik, who was still singing, with a traction anchor, and then erected a magic barrier in front of him, so that the unlucky guy who had interrupted his casting because he was suddenly dragged directly hit his head on it and fainted...... The whole process took less than three seconds, a little faster than punishing Colf.

Moreover, from the beginning to the end of the duel, Sivi did not make any moves, which made all the professors except for the two high-level magicians feel that unless they were asked to rub their shields before they started, even if they were in Barnik's position, they would probably only be easily knocked down.

This episode also made all the professors recognize Sivi's status as a professor to a certain extent, and see him as a magician equal to them.

And after adding a patrol mission to the already full schedule, Xiwei suddenly woke up - why didn't he find trouble to take such a on himself! At that time, wouldn't it be nice to push the boat down the river and push this task away, but it was just despised by other professors, and there were a lot of pieces of meat!

In short, after being depressed for a long time because of his miscalculation, Sivi regained his strength.

Fortunately, nothing special happened during the night patrol. Don't talk about trolls. It's hard to find even a rat in the castle, and although many students have protested, pets are forbidden at Lylian College. So there are no other strange creatures.

In addition, the academy already has a curfew system, except for the lack of spirit of the professors, the patrol has not caused any other impact.

On this day, Sivi stayed in the library again, yawning profusely because of lack of sleep. While flipping through a book about magical combat techniques, he was a little bored. If anyone can see the mark on his hand, they will see that the mark that was pointed to the '3' yesterday is now pointing to the '4'.

It's not that Sivi died once yesterday in the dungeon, but today is the first day of his third month in this world.

Recently, his dungeon progress has also fallen into a dilemma.

Except for the [Sand Pirate Stronghold], the rest of the dungeons have already been raided, and the new dungeon cannot be opened until the 'Initial Shape' quest is completed. At present, Xiwei will soon be able to save up enough resources to build a dormitory. It's just that the most rear-end protective enchantment requires a lot of gem resources, and this happens to be the only resource that Sivi has not been able to find a source in the dungeon so far. Therefore, it seems that the task of 'taking shape' will take a long time.

Not long ago, Xiwei tried to attack the [Sand Thief Stronghold] twice, but unfortunately they all ended in failure.

…,

The first time I still adhered to the original concept, and I wanted to rush into the boss's location as quickly as possible with the newly learned levitation technique, and kill the boss to complete the dungeon.

However, it is a pity that the speed is still insufficient, so he was still entangled by a large number of lizardmen, and finally had to use the return crystal to escape in embarrassment.

The second time was to clean up the lizardmen from the periphery step by step.

However, because the other party has thick skin and more blood than goblins. It's a lot harder. Only through the switching of various magic and the occasional explosion of powerful magic can we ensure that we will not let ourselves be surrounded by the other party when clearing the opponent. The consequence of this was that he ran out of ammunition by the time he cleared his way.

Relying on the previous methods, it seems that there is no way to pass the [Sand Pirate Stronghold], so Xiwei can only calm down, looking forward to finding new discoveries from the library to quickly improve his combat effectiveness.

It's just that at the moment, it seems that it has had little effect.

He yawned again, then closed the book in his hand.

If Sophia was around, it would obviously be a good idea to ask her if there was a number that met his current needs, but since he had asked her to dig into the wall a few days ago. The girl seemed to be beginning to avoid him, consciously or unconsciously.

Even if they met him on the road, the other party would not greet him. As if afraid to make contact with him, he just hurried past with his head down—which hit Sivi quite hard.

"Sure enough, you're still a little too anxious......" Sivi sighed. He always felt that what he was doing seemed to scare Sophia.

After thinking about it for a while, Sivi felt that it would be better for him to go and drink something first to calm down.

There are small shops selling drinks and snacks in the castle, but this kind of industry, which has been monopolized except on weekends, obviously does not have the idea that the customer is God, and it is also true that the drinks and snacks there are extremely expensive, and the same kind of goods are more than five times more expensive than the sweet treasure candy store outside, and the business is surprisingly good.

From this, it can be seen that many of the students are from very good families.

However, Sivi has no interest in being slaughtered, so he plans to go to the kitchen to see if there is anything to drink, and if it doesn't work, he can ask Alice to make him a cup of coffee or something, and the girl is either cleaning the academy or helping in the kitchen to do all kinds of work, and she is too industrious to be idle.

However, when Sivi arrived at the kitchen, which had no one but Alice not long after noon, he was startled.

The maid girl was washing the dishes - of course this is a normal thing. It's just that in addition to her, there seem to be many invisible people, some helping to wash the mountains of dirty dishes, some sweeping the floor, and some cleaning up the food scraps created during cooking......

This is a familiar sight for Sivi, because he often does it.

That's right, it's the hand of a mage.

And at the same time, the number of mages operating close to double digits.
