Chapter 45: Hogwarts Part II

The name Edward also came up with an idea on the spot.

Since in the famous novel "Harry Potter" on the Celestial Plane, the four founders of Hogwarts have been put together by themselves. Well, the name is worthy of the name.

He repeated it again, "It's called Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." ”

Hogwarts?!

Helga shook his head slightly, and faintly felt in his heart that the name sounded inexplicably familiar.

"What is the Academy of Magic? Is this the name of this half-plane ruin? ”

The little girl on the side, Rowena, was a little puzzled, and her dark hair hung down on her forehead, making her look a different youthful style.

In this magical world with a strong Celestial Empire plane and Western medieval style, there has not yet been an institution like the "School of Magic", which systematically carries out the inheritance of spells in a planned and organized manner.

To tell the truth, the four ancient magical organizations where Helga, Rowena and the others belonged, although there were many people, each organization had about two or three thousand people; There are endless masters, and on the bright side of each organization, there are at least three or four silver-level ring mages.

But if it was only about the system used by these four magical organizations, Edward shook his head silently in his heart.

Let's not mention the other systems they use for the time being, just talk about their way of cultivating new people, the four major mage organizations actually use the classical training method of assigning several apprentices to a mentor, and the mentor will teach by word and deed.

It's a bit like the ancient Chinese model of the Celestial Empire, where old-fashioned craftsmen take apprentices.

In Edward's view, this kind of training system is undoubtedly very rudimentary and inefficient.

Hearing Rowena's question, the brunette girl smiled, and said to Alice, who was flying on the side.

"Leprechaun Alice, tell me about it!"

Alice, who already called herself a little goblin, saw Edward ask her to tell everyone, and her emerald green wings trembled slightly.

She hurriedly flew to Edward's side, sat on Edward's shoulder with her little ass, and began to explain excitedly.

Edward led the crowd around the massive magical castle while listening to Alice's soft voice.

Like the famous Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Harry Potter, because of the bad taste of our classmates, there are also four branches in this school of witchcraft and wizardry, named after Helga and the three children.

Of course, this Edward's Hogwarts also has some differences from Harry Potter.

For example, the outermost of the five towers of this academy was directly divided by Edward to the dark mage Rasmussen. In Edward's current preliminary plan, in the future, Edward will be trained to cultivate some subordinates suitable for dark spell work.

・・・・・・

Time flew by, and in a short time, Edward led the group to the top of the central tower at the top of Hogwarts House.

The breeze that blew from nowhere gently drove everyone's hair.

After listening to Alice's explanation along the way.

The black-haired little girl, Rowena, and Godric and Salazar, the three schoolboys, were all a little flattered.

"Lord Edward, isn't it a little inappropriate for us to be the head of the branch?"

"We're the mage's apprentices!"

Rowena squeezed her delicate and small nose, and after knowing the important role of the Academy of Magic in Edward's future plans, she was a little unconfident and said uneasily.

"Don't worry!" Edward smiled and cheered her on.

"The dean of the Academy of Magic, just look at your knowledge, not let you fight."

"Your main job in the coming year will be to teach and manage."

"More importantly, who of the people I and Helga trust is more experienced than you?"

As he said the word "trust," Edward's voice was accentuated.

Hearing Edward's words, the three schoolmates calmed down.

Almost all of the people present had a completely reassuring magical contract relationship with the Edward siblings. (At the Baronial Ceremony in Helga, Cassiso and Walter also signed a retainer contract in accordance with tradition.)

What's more, before today, there was no such thing as the dean of the Magic Academy in this wizarding world, and in this regard, they had the same starting point as anyone else.

"Lord Edward!" Salazar, a skinny Parseltongue boy, was the first to come to his senses.

"I'll try to do it well!" He said firmly.

Godric, the red-haired boy beside him, also stood up straight, and the little black-haired girl, Rowena, nodded solemnly.

At this time, Helga stroked the somewhat disheveled hair that was carried by the breeze in his ears.

She stood on this vantage point, looking out at the lake below, the castle, and the huge forest that loomed at the end of the line.

"The magic factor here is even stronger than that on the ground."

"Even, it feels like I'm in Mr. Todd's magic crystal storage room."

She turned and looked at Edward.

"But."

"In your so-called year, you want to cultivate the strength and power that can support Artoria to truly ascend to the throne."

"It's not enough!"

The girl said solemnly, her good-looking eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"First of all, if we want to train a mage of official rank or above, we need enough magic apprentices!"

"And most of the magic apprentices in the outside world are monopolized by the mage organization and the nobles of the kingdom."

Edward nodded indifferently. Helga is right, every 2-3 years, the four mage organizations will send people with detection magic crystals like mad dogs, and search for civilian teenagers with mage qualifications throughout the English islands.

And more than ninety percent of the mages born outside the four major mage organizations are like Edward, and their own family has the background of cultivating mages and is a noble child.

"And even if you have enough magic apprentices."

The girl sensed the dense magic factor around her, made a rough estimate in her heart, and continued.

"Even with the concentration of the magic factor here, it will take more than three years to cultivate a group of qualified form-level mages."

"A qualified mage of the official level can not only be qualified for magic power!"

"What's more, the direct threat we face in the future is the seven or eight Silver Knights of Wales and Ireland."

"And for an English monarch who has a grudge against the Four Mage Organizations." She glanced at Artoria and thought of the silver masters of the four major mage organizations after the Demon Calamity, who were plotting against King Uther on the sword in the stone.

Although, now she doesn't think that those silver mages have succeeded in their plots, but she can't stand those silver mages thinking so.

"I believe that including us, Moulton, will not watch her successfully ascend to the throne in vain."

The girl deliberately paused at this time to give Edward and the others a time to think.

Then continue.

"In other words, our future enemies are a large number of silver-rank powerhouses, and no matter how many formal mages there are, what's the point?"

"One year is far from enough!"

Once again, Helga made up his mind.

Except for Edward, everyone else was lost in thought.

Artoria was the first to react, and she hurried to Edward's side, holding his arm nervously.

This kind of intimacy is the first time that Artoria has awakened the memory of being a British princess as a child.

The blonde fur on her head bobbed up and down uneasily, and she urged Edward.

"Edward, let's take our time!"

"Don't take such a risk? All right! ”

At this time, Artoria looked at Edward's eyes with indescribable fear.

But Edward was not panicked at all, he smiled slightly, and in Artoria's somewhat shy expression, he reached out and touched the silly hair of the girl in front of him.

His calm expression quickly caught everyone's attention.

"Edward, do you have any backhand?"

Helga was a little unsure, after returning to the Baron's Castle this time, several shocking secrets seemed to suddenly become worthless, and they were displayed in front of her one after another, making the girl Jane a little dizzy recently.

"Of course!" Edward replied confidently.

All right! It seems that our Helga did not guess wrong this time.

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!

Edward pulled out Artoria's arm and slapped his palm three times.

In the sky above Hogwarts, the pure golden orb, as if stimulated by something, emitted endless pale golden light, like a gathering in front of everyone.

A golden gorgeous light gate with a radius of about five meters slowly appeared in front of everyone's eyes with layers of ripples in the space.

In the Gate of Light, a manor that looked strange to Helga and the others loomed. At the entrance of the gate of the manor, the "hateful" Bronsky, who had not spoken before and silently followed behind everyone, had a strange expression.

The English letters 'James Winery' shine brightly under the purple searchlight.

"Let's go!"

Edward walked slowly to the Light Gate.

"Helga, my answers to your questions are behind this door of light!"

He turned his head, smiled confidently, and said loudly・・・・・・
