Chapter 9: Naxi's Cabin and Mystery Books
As a very simple mage, Naxi didn't understand what the combat skills of a mage should have. Unable to use magic, he stumbled left and right under Malfoy's onslaught, the shining spear of light biting at his vital points like a viper. If it weren't for the simple and crude teaching under his eyes, he would have died many times.
Just as Naxi was complaining in his heart, the cruising light spear slammed into Naxi's ribs again, and the blow almost knocked out all the lunch he had eaten.
Resisting the discomfort of the blow, Naxi still struggled to swing the brass staff in his hand. Having been beaten by Malfoy for more than an hour, there was no reason why he could not say something.
The brass staff, which was slightly longer than the Wandering Light Spear, was thrown out, colliding with the Wandering Light Spear that shone with a strange light. Malfoy, who hadn't used much strength, could barely hold his light spear steadily, and he realized that he had underestimated Naxi's strength.
After the change on the spot exceeded his expectations, Malfoy once again sped up the speed of the light spear, swimming like a fish in the water, avoiding Naxi's random swings again and again, and then hitting Naxi in heavy armor one by one.
No matter how good her physical strength was, she couldn't withstand such torture from her opponent, and Naxi finally fell to the ground from exhaustion. He gasped, his hands running out of strength to wipe the beads of sweat from his head. Even if they did, it would be in vain, because the Nasyri were already soaking wet inside and out.
"Can we rest for a while. Naxi, who was lying on the ground, sat up and said in a short speech.
If the current state continues, Naxi is worried that he will be carried out.
Seeing that Naxi was tired like that, Malfoy also stopped.
"Looks like you're a power-oriented mage. Malfoy said, putting away his spear of light.
"Strength?" Naxi felt a little incredulous, "Why do you say that?"
"In the process of fighting you, I found that your physical strength and strength are much stronger than ordinary people. Seriously, it's the first time I've seen someone who doesn't know any combat skills last that long under my men. Malfoy's tone didn't seem to be bluffing, and he continued, "That's why I say you're a power mage, just like Mr. Angelo. ”
"Just like Angelo-sensei?" Naxi wondered, "What kind of person are you, senior?" Although he vaguely guessed that the other party might be a speed type, he was not too sure.
"I'm going to be the speed type. However, my specialty is not the speed of an Assassin, but the ability to cast spells quickly. There are no two mages in the world who are exactly the same, and the judgment that you are a power type is just my opinion, and you may have a specialty that I have not seen. ”
"Oh!" Naxi replied, as if incomprehensible. Right now, he didn't have the heart to learn anything else about the mage, and his mind was still thinking about what he had to do to learn magic. After all, he has already come to Ye Falan, and in this city of mages, he has to find an opportunity to steal the teacher.
At this time, Angelo, who had been out for a while, walked back, he looked at Naxi who was out of breath and said, "It seems that you are still working hard, how are you feeling now?"
After seeing his teacher come back, Naxi stood up and said with a smile: "Teacher Angelo, you are back, you are fine now, Senior Malfoy takes care of me very much." ”
Angelo was very happy with Naxi's answer: "That's all for today's lesson." ”
Angelo then said to Malfoy, "It's nothing to do now, you can take Naxi to his dormitory." His dormitory is the house next door to you, and Valhalla's class will be out soon, so you can help him get the rest of the rest as soon as possible. ”
The house next door?
If this sentence does not mean anything else, then it is very likely that Naxi will be placed in a dormitory building for reading. This treatment is too cool, Naxi is starting to look forward to it. Because in many magic academies, only professor-level existences can have a house of reading, and those magicians who come to Ye Falan for further study don't want to have such treatment.
It wasn't until Naxi saw his dorm room as it really looked that his infinite anticipation disappeared completely.
The small house in front of me is simply a utility store, and the mess in it has not even been cleaned up. Naxi's whole heart went cold when he saw the cobwebs that covered the windows.
"This is the house that Teacher Angelo said?" Naxi simply couldn't accept such a strong contrast.
"Hmm. Teacher Angelo has never been very keen on applying for various benefits from the Valhalla Academy, and the resources of the house have always been much less than those of other teachers. In addition, we didn't expect to bring you back before we went to the Cheka, so we had to compromise on your way to stay here first. ”
"Haha, it's okay, I'm also a casual person, and I don't care so much. Naxi said expressionlessly, but in his heart he scolded Malfoy and Angelo a thousand times.
Of course, the blow to Naxi was not over, and Malfoy, who had brought him here, had slipped away at this critical time.
"Naxi, you clean up here first and clean up inside. I'll go find a couple of people to get you a bed. Malfoy dropped the sentence and disappeared without a trace.
Seeing the dashing back disappear in front of him, Naxi had no choice but to clean up the messy utility room by himself. Looking at the mountains of various objects, Naxi's head was bigger.
Naxi hated such trivial things as tidying up the house, but it wasn't too difficult for him to clean up the garbage when he had been doing half of the housework. Dragging his tired body, Naxi began to clean the house inside and out.
When his cleaning was almost done, Malfoy brought someone to help him with the bed he wanted.
After some tossing, Naxi finally finished everything and lived in his own house. Malfoy left after they had set up their beds, leaving him with some of the necessities he might need.
When everything around him slowly quieted down, Naxi lay down on the awkward little bed.
It has to be said that this bed did not take into account his height at all, and if Naxi guessed correctly, its previous owner must have been a child.
Naxi, who was so tired that he was about to fall asleep when he closed his eyes, couldn't care so much, as long as there was a clean place in front of him, he didn't hesitate to lie down, and it didn't matter if the bed fitted or not.
As he lay down, Naxi untied everything he felt was burdensome and threw it aside. Things like belt spellbooks, he usually don't go to sleep until the next step.
When he touched the mysterious book that Nubis had given him, Naxi remembered that he had been in possession for a while, but he had never had time to read it.
Struggling to brace his tired body, the curious Naxi opened the old-looking book.
From the yellowed hardcover pages, Naxi saw only a large number of intricate symbols and some completely unintelligible words.
Of course, it wasn't all incomprehensible, and Naxi saw something familiar on some of the pages.
"Why is it this scribbled elven writing again!" Naxi looked at the big head, and the handwriting in front of him was clearly the same as the handwriting on the map.
"Damn, can't that guy practice his handwriting well? What kind of courage does it take to write such bird-like words in beautiful elven words? Naxi grummaged as she flipped through it.
Although I wanted to know what was written on it, the tired Naxi couldn't care so much. He was so tired, tired that he had already suppressed the curiosity that had sprung up in his heart.
He threw the treasure that Ben Nubis had told him so much, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
Just as Naxi was asleep, the mysterious book that Naxi had thrown aside began to flip through automatically.
The books that are constantly being read automatically emit a light that ordinary people can't see at all. Some ethereal points of light converged into a faint stream of light, which slowly swirled in mid-air and then flowed into Naxi's body.
This strange situation lasted for a while before it dissipated, and when everything around him returned to normal, all that was left was the snoring of Naxi as he slept soundly.
