Chapter 65: The Traveler XIII
So, magicians are very expensive, very expensive, and what I said earlier is only a small point. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info High-level magicians like to create their own magic, so the shrinking fortune caused by this kind of experimentation can bankrupt the average nobleman......
Therefore, Conan Campbell, a young apprentice born in a commoner, was destined to lack the support of his family, and his future growth was destined to be very difficult. Of course, I'm not saying that civilians can't become great magicians, but among them, you have to be at least more genius than other geniuses, work harder than others, and add some luck......
When Conan Campbell, a young man who had only turned 12 years old, arrived in his assigned class at the Academy of Magic, he found that the apprentices here were basically of noble birth, with only a few commoners, all of whom were resigned to the fringes, and from time to time the children of the nobles walked by them and mocked and deliberately collided with them.
Conan Campbell was no exception, hunched over his head through the back door of the classroom and headed for a desk in the corner. But before he could take a few steps, he was blocked by a few people. Seeing a very fat boy at the beginning, Conan Campbell secretly screamed when he saw this fat man, this is the son of the Baron who ruled their town, that is, the future Baron, and Conan Campbell is his lord.
When the magician sent by the magic academy came to their town to accept apprentices, the first test was this fat man, and after the test, the magician shook his head, saying that the fat man's elemental affinity and perception of elemental particles were too poor, and if he was sent to school to learn magic, he could only be promoted to magician in the future. Then it was Conan Campbell's turn, this test, the magician was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and praised Conan Campbell loudly, because Conan Campbell's elemental affinity and perception of elemental particles are simply excellent and excellent plus perfect, and Conan Campbell was awarded an apprenticeship certificate to the Academy of Magic on the spot, and he didn't have to pay the registration fee to the Academy of Magic. The little fat man who hadn't gone far heard this praise that was completely opposite to his own, and his lungs exploded on the spot, how could he not be a nobleman who was not as good as a commoner, and his sense of superiority was hit, so he secretly hated Conan Campbell.
In the next few days and on the way to the Academy of Magic (the local nobles sent the apprentices recruited by the academy to it), the little fat man kept looking for Conan Campbell's ballast, which made Conan Campbell miserable. But I never expected that so many people and so many classes would still put themselves and the little fat man in the same class...... (In the magical country, although some magicians shout the theory that everyone is equal, the nobles are not allowed to assassinate commoners or kill and maim them and become slaves at will, because after all, it is a magical country, and the production of both nobles and commoners will eventually converge on the mages, and this kind of random killing is destroying the wealth of the mages.) But the mages are basically locked up in their own towers to study magic, and the basic management is still handed over to the noble knights, plus many mages come out of the noble families, so the small bullying of civilians is still visible...... ļ¼
"Yo, isn't this the genius of our town?" the little fat man arrogantly pushed Conan Campbell, Conan Campbell couldn't stand it and slammed back against the wall, and then the little fat man and his people immediately surrounded Conan Campbell.
"Hey, aren't you magically friendly?! Release a fireball! As long as you release it, I'll let you go! Otherwise...... Hmph!" the little fat man shook his fist.
"I ...... I...... I'm not even a first-level magic apprentice now......" Conan Campbell was also angry in his heart, although the fireball technique is the lowest level of magic for mages, but even magicians need auxiliary items and chant for a long time to release them, and only when the level reaches the official wizard can gather the fire element in the air and release it.
"Hey, genius, you're a genius, you can't cast magic yet, are you looking down on me if you don't let go?"
Touching his flushed cheeks, Conan Campbell lowered his head and stopped arguing, large tears fell out of his eyes, his other hand was clenched into a fist, his nails were sunk into the flesh, his heart was extremely angry and hateful, but the reality was so helpless......
"Hey, what are you doing!" a middle-aged man's voice came.
The little fat man turned around and saw a full-fledged magician with a wizard's pointed hat standing at the front door, and immediately let his followers disperse, then patted Conan Campbell on the shoulder and said to the magician, "Teacher, we are playing." ā
"Really, boy, look up and say. The magician shouted Conan Campbell.
Conan Campbell quickly wiped away his tears from his head and replied with an ugly smile, "Yes, teacher, we're playing......"
"Really, since you've said so. The magician gave Conan Campbell a deep look, then walked to the podium, "It's time for your class to get the apprentice's equipment, come with me." ā
The magician walked out the door, and the students lined up to follow, and the little fat man patted Conan Campbell on the shoulder and said, "Yes, know the times." ā
Conan Campbell was the last to walk out of the classroom, his face gloomy and he didn't know what he was thinking, when a girl in front of him slowly slowed down, walked with him, and whispered to him, "You have to be patient, only if we become magicians, better than these noble bastards, we will be able to be disgraced in the future." ā
Conan Campbell turned his head to look at the girl, seeing that she was also wearing coarse linen clothes and cutting a boy's head, he knew that this was also a commoner's child, he nodded and said: "Yes, I will definitely become a great magician, and I must make these nobles dare not bully us civilians in the future!"
"Yes, exactly. The girl responded, and then reached out to take Conan Campbell's hand, which blushed slightly, and finally grasped the tender little hand.
Arrived at the Academy's warehouse, and the open space in front of the warehouse was now full of chests, and several magicians were standing beside them. The magician with Conan Campbell stepped forward to talk to the magicians for a while, the leading magician nodded, and then motioned for the students to line up to get it, and when one of the students stepped forward, the magician took out the magic stick, waved it at the box, and several items flew up and came to the students' hands.
