Inside Norman's bedroom

It's now eight minutes later, and most of the inhabitants of Cárdenas have turned off their lights and gone into their dreams, but there is still light in this room.

There were 10 beeswax sticks lit in the small room as if they didn't need money, scattered around the room, and the little bedroom was as bright as the day, which was really luxurious, and these were all good things that Norman did.

This guy asked Franklin for a lot of beeswax under the pretext of "bad eyes", "can't see clearly" and "I want to study hard at night", and Franklin naturally had no reason not to approve it, and he even hoped that Norman would better study all the time without sleeping, and what was the price of paying some beeswax for this?

So Norman's room was as bright and airy as it is now, and Norman, who "wanted to study hard", sat at his small table and munched on a steak.

Yes, nibbling steaks, juicy and shiny steaks.

Norman grabbed this large piece of meat with both hands, and he didn't know what kind of animal meat was gnawing deliciously, and every bite could feel the juice burst and bloom in his mouth, and then he bit down hard, tasted and chewed it carefully, felt the tight piece of meat become loose little by little under the friction of his teeth, felt the sauce and seasoning mixed on the tip of his tongue to create a touching deliciousness, and finally swallowed it, so that the meat and his body became one, and then opened his mouth again, and then gnawed on the next piece of meat......

The steak was begged for by Norman from Grace.

Norman also felt a little hungry after coming back today, so he cheekily asked if there was anything to eat, it was best to have something to eat, it didn't matter if there was nothing, and there would be no shortage of meat if he asked. The result may have been that Franklin had taken care of him, and Grace tossed him around, and forced him to make such a tender and juicy steak in the middle of the night.

So Norman ate meat for the first time in his life, and the feeling he felt when he ate meat was: It's delicious, it's delicious!

After battling with the steak for a long time, Norman contentedly put the bone in his hand on a plate.

I saw that this bone was smooth and smooth, and there was no flesh at all, and it could almost be used as a mirror in the well-lit room.

"Hiccup~"

Eating too quickly, Norman also had a full burp. Touching his stomach again, he pushed the plate aside, took a book on the table and put it in front of him, but he didn't open it immediately, and his mind was still reminiscing about the wonderful taste of the steak just now.

To tell the truth, Norman has taken 12 silver nar from Colin's house these days, not that he can't afford to eat meat, but he has seen old Norman starve to death in front of him, and he is so hungry that he is not willing to use this money until he has to, let alone use it to buy such a luxury as meat, so even if he has a huge fortune of more than 11 silver nar (he spent some money on a dress before), it is still the first time he has eaten meat.

Norman didn't know how long it had been, until the smell of the steak in the bedroom had dissipated and he couldn't smell it at all, and he finally came back to his senses from the wonderful taste.

In order to be able to eat meat every day, you must become a mage and become a nobleman!

Norman's eyes were unwavering, and this was probably the most determined moment in his belief to become a mage so far.

And when you think of it, you do it.

Norman opened the book in front of him and burst out with a strong enthusiasm for learning.

"Gods Overview"

This was the name of the book in front of him, and it was a book that Franklin had chosen specifically for someone like him who could read an ancient language but not a lingua franca, because most of the content of the book was written in simple ancient language.

According to Franklin, he had only one of the three elements of becoming a mage, and he did not have two of them, and these two points happened to be linked, and they were all tied to the key point of "signing a contract with the gods", so learning theology became Norman's most urgent task.

Theology also happened to be the content of the assessment of church schools, and Franklin was naturally happy to see that Norman had such a strong learning spirit in theological learning, so he did not hesitate to help and gave him this book.

"Goddess of the Sea......

Norman subconsciously read it out as he looked at it, but before he could read two words, he came across a word he didn't recognize.

The string of letters here is the lingua franca, not an ancient language, and it is supposed to be the name of this goddess of the sea. And Norman didn't bother and immediately jumped over.

"What, the name of the god, Gongsun Jingyan, the power of the gods, the ...... personality"

He met again something he didn't know, but this time it wasn't a lingua franca, but an ancient language he didn't know, but he jumped over as soon as he got experience.

"What Jing, the second daughter of the Father, what is the weapon, what is the fork?......"

Norman quickly finished the first page and had a basic understanding of the goddess of the sea...... Well, although there is a small part of what, he finally knows that this sea goddess is called Gongsun Jingyan.

Even though Norman can read every ancient language, it still feels very difficult to connect, and he is not as easy to read as Norman and Franklin.

After some sneering to himself, Norman sat at the table according to what Franklin had taught him during the day, his eyes closed, and his mind began to think about Gongsun Jingyan.

For normal students, the course of theology only needs to memorize a general theological system, religious history, and the names and personalities of some mainstream gods, etc., and the entrance examination of the church school will only test these things, which is not very difficult, and the only difficulty is that there are too many gods in this world and the names of these gods are ancient names.

But for a genius like Norman, there should be more to be done, and it's worth a little anticipation — well, that's what Franklin had in mind.

"You can try to communicate with each god, and maybe you can find the god who can make a contract with you in two days. ”

This is what Franklin said to Norman at the time.

Norman still remembers that when Franklin said this, he looked at himself with anticipation in his eyes, as if he believed that he would be able to make a pact with some god at once, which made Norman himself believe it a little.

But now, after thinking about Gongsun Jingyan with his eyes closed and thinking for a long time, he didn't notice anything unusual.

"When you find the god who can make a contract with you, you will naturally feel it, and it is a very mysterious feeling, which is difficult to describe in words......"

These were Franklin's exact words, but Norman closed his eyes and thought about it for a long time, but he didn't feel anything.

If anything, the only thing he had was if there was a radish in the steak just now, otherwise how could he have the urge to fart......

After holding back for a long time, Norman finally opened his eyes and gave up his first attempt to communicate with the gods.

"The more and more detail you know about a god, the more likely you are to enter into a contract with him......"

That's what Franklin said during the day.

Could it be that because I don't know a lot of words, I don't know enough and details about this God's message, so I can't feel it?

As soon as Norman thought of this possibility, he immediately put aside the goddess of the sea and began to read the contents of the second page, reading it as he could.

"The god of the earth, what, the name of the god, Gu Liang Shuqi ......"
