He has finally graduated completely, become a person who can allocate all his time freely, and finally no longer a boy, and no longer dare to interject for fear of revealing his stuffing when his friends are drinking and boasting. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Last night's banquet was a "serious banquet", and it won't be too late, and when many students, parents, and teachers have talked to each other and eaten enough, they will almost disperse. When he got dressed and went back, he was almost over, and Roy was looking for him everywhere - although he was a little suspicious, the girl would never have imagined that in less than two hours, her brother had already completed a major event in his life before her.

Now, it's time for graduates to plan their lives. Loy had easily obtained the certification of a high-level magician, but he was afraid that he was expected to break the age record of the Empire's female archmagician, and with the help of Catherine, he made a list of Tirela's Academy of Magic, destruction damage, physical control, auxiliary healing, and even ornamental daily use...... The most authoritative authority on all aspects of magic. From names and ages to addresses and personal preferences, everything was clear - she was ready to take advantage of the free time before the official enrollment to get in touch with these magicians, so as to lay a good foundation for further study and maximize the use of her time.

......

The tall cylindrical tower, made of polished and smooth granite, stands proudly on its own and stands out from the top of the nearby buildings, both flat and sloping among the tops of the buildings, which is out of place in the neatly planned buildings of the new imperial capital, and even the style of painting is somewhat different.

It's a mage tower.

Even Catherine, who was awarded the title of low-level archmage at a young age, and who was the adopted daughter of Duke Foster, could only obediently live in a dormitory - if you want to have a completely personal residence in the imperial capital of Winway, and even the architectural style can be decided by yourself, only two kinds of people have this qualification: the great nobles of the former Midland Kingdom who supported the emperor's reforms, and the talented people valued by the Emperor Kell. Catherine's use of popular misconceptions to create an identity has brought a lot of convenience to her life, but it is far from enough to be taken seriously by the Emperor - to have a mage tower in this city, you must either have prestige or saint-level strength, or you have outstanding achievements and profound knowledge in a certain field that is recognized as unsurpassable.

Roy's visit today is one of the latter types, Archmage Oshiel is a professor at the Tirela School of Magic, the highest magical school in the Empire, his profound magical skills are admired by all students, and his unique and innovative insights in the field of magic and his achievements in magical creations have made him famous all over the world, and the Empire has offered favorable conditions and guaranteed a good environment for the study of magic texts, which has successfully made him agree to stay in the city to participate in the teaching of outstanding young mages.

"Tuk tuk. ”

The door is beautifully decorated, there is a golden magic pattern on the frame of the door panel that cannot be seen, and there is a dragon-headed decoration in the center of the one-person high position, which is lifelike, although it is delicate and small, but it does not lose its majesty. At the moment when Roy knocked on the door, the dragon head opened its eyes as if it had come to life, and its pupils were aimed at the visitor as if it were a real thing.

"Roy Foster, daughter of the Duke of Upper Winway, has come to meet Mr. O'Sill. She usually disdained such a visit because of her haughty disposition, and in fact she never invited herself as an uninvited guest—but her future mentor had an eccentric personality that was difficult for ordinary people to approach, and only her fatherhood could ensure that she would not be shut up.

The door opened, and a tall servant stood in the doorway, quickly recovering from his astonishment at the visitor's beauty: "The master has no arrangements for a guest today. ”

"Take the liberty of disturbing ......" Luo Yi bowed slightly: "I have encountered some problems in the process of studying the Advanced Magic Script, and I hope to ask the authority in this area for advice." ”

"As far as I know, Miss Foster will officially become a student of Master O'Hill in two months. The tall servant said, "You can ask him for advice after the lesson, and the master will be happy to answer your questions." ”

"Yes, but I accidentally obtained the notes of the legendary mage Finn during the preview process, and after reading it, I found that his understanding of the origin of magic and magic text is different from the current textbook, but both seem to make sense, and if you can't figure out the next step of self-study, it will be difficult, so I came to the door in advance. ”

O'Hill's servant didn't care what the other party's reason was, his master ordered to stop all the guests who came to visit while he was conducting his magic research, and no matter what the other party was, he didn't want to break the rules: "I'm sorry Miss, but ......"

But a sculpture on the wall of the hallway behind the door made another voice: "Let her in." ”

"Master?" the servant was stunned, and quickly turned sideways to get out of the way: "Please come in." ”

***

Archmage O'Hill was a cold and unsociable person, but that's not entirely true. There are people in the world who are obsessed with a certain activity, immersed in their own world, and are reluctant to spend a little more energy to deal with the disturbances of the outside world, and in the eyes of outsiders, such unsocial people who do not have fun are sad and funny. But only the parties themselves know that they also have unparalleled satisfaction and happiness in their own world. And there is no distinction between high and low contentment and happiness.

The owner of this mage tower is exactly that, Archmage Oshiel has never married, has no hobbies or any social interaction other than his peers, and does not set foot in his laboratory except to fulfill his contract to teach students to maintain the Empire's support for his research. Whether Roy is the "Flower of the Imperial Capital", the best young female mage in a hundred years, and the favored daughter of Duke Foster...... The beauty, birth, and excellence that make the girl be valued and preferential in life are meaningless in front of those who do not eat this set, and opening the door and politely refusing her visit is already the servant's greatest concession to his own assertions.

But Catherine's idea for her worked, no matter how eccentric the person was, as long as he could do what he liked, he could break the defenses.

The servant sideways out of the way, and Roy thanked him softly before passing him into the Mage's Tower. The entrance behind the door was dimly lit and difficult to see, and it took her half a second to adjust to the darkness before she was reminded by the servant to walk straight through the two wooden doors and to the second door.

Everything was in her plan, but even with her knowledge, she was still slightly stunned the moment she pushed the door open, and a few seconds ago she walked into the gate of the mage's tower, and after only a few steps through a tunnel, she came outside, and a magnificent view appeared in front of her: a vast lake, the water of which was so deep that it was a trembling blue, smooth as a mirror, without a ripple, neither the frolicking of fish nor the chirping of birds could break its solemn silence, and in the distance were several majestic snow-capped mountains, the part above the snow line shimmered silver against the background of the washed sky, and it was as steep and dazzling as the sword of the godsFlowers of different colors bloom among the green grass beneath your feet, and the fragrance of earth and flowers seems to linger in the air......
