"Really?" reached out to pick up the pipe on the table, and the old dean looked at Professor Hodd with a smile.

I saw Huo De's embarrassed look, looked at the old dean and said, "Dean, you see...... What else do I have to do here?"

"What's the matter?"

"I've already taught Flame Flash to that kid, and I'm in the foundation stage now, this ...... I can't leave, if this foundation is not laid, it will ...... in the future."

"Oh, you've already handed it over to that little fellow, so quickly?" said the old dean, as he spoke, and said indifferently as he bit his pipe, "then take that little fellow with you, and you can guide him whenever and wherever you want, right?"

"But...... But there's still a lesson......"

"Class?" The old dean who was biting his pipe glanced at Professor Hod with a smile and said, "Don't worry, the guests from Salonia will arrive in about four days, and four days is enough time for you to go to [Scottel]......"

"Then I have to come back?"

"......" The old dean opened his mouth, took two puffs of his pipe, looked at Professor Hodd's expectant eyes, and said with a smile, "Aren't we going to hold a magic competition with those Salonian students? There is enough time to delay that child...... That's it!"

"I ......" Professor Hodd seemed to want to say something, but after looking at the old dean's smiling face, he finally nodded and sighed slightly.

A few minutes later, looking at the back of Professor Hodd leaving, the old dean stood up with a smile, turned to look at the sky outside the window, and muttered, "I hope everything goes well......

At the same time, Jiang Zhe had just sent the old priest named Andrew away.

To be honest, in the face of Father Andrew's 'all kinds of kindness', Jiang Zhe really couldn't bear it, and he felt a little strange, why this old man, as one of the twelve cardinal archbishops of the Holy See, seemed to be very close to him, and the two didn't know each other...... Say that white magic is more interesting than black magic, and insist on pulling yourself to Salonia...... Among them, there must be some reason...... "Yo, are you still thinking about it?" Looking at Jiang Zhe lying on the sofa, Alan said with a smile, "I said Soth, what are you hesitating about such a good opportunity?"

"What did you promise?" Scott, who was sitting on the couch at the other end, flipping through the magic book, pushed his glasses without even lifting his head.

"Go to Thessalonia!" Alan clapped his hands in surprise and said with some fuss, "Didn't you hear? That old man just now is one of the twelve cardinals of the Holy See, even if he wants to pretend, you say that it is impossible for us to come to pretend to be Reoks, right?"

"So what?" replied Scott lukewarmly.

"Stupid!" Shaking his head at Scott with a disappointed expression, Alan suddenly turned around and said to Jiang Zhe with a smile, "I heard that there are many beautiful young ladies in Salonia...... Man, do you want to take me?" but as soon as he finished speaking, he shuddered slightly, and then stopped moving, and if we looked closely, we could see that he was wrapped in layers of black threads, and these black threads came from Scott's raised right hand.

"Hey, man, it's not a joke, is it?" It's hard to imagine that someone in bondage can turn his head, but Alan did, his brute force that is not human, and sometimes even Scott's curse magic is helpless.

"Stay side!" Frowning and glaring at Allen, Scott unrestrained, and then said to Jiang Zhe hesitantly, "Soth, I don't think it's that simple...... It's possible that as he said, you've met someone from the Holy See, otherwise you wouldn't be able to explain the magic array on the back of your hand......"

Regarding the matter of the magic array, Jiang Zhe told his two roommates everything he could say, after all, he didn't feel that there was anything he couldn't say.

"That's right!" Leaning against the sofa, Alan nodded again and again, "Look at what the old man said, this magic array doesn't seem to be ordinary...... By the way, do you feel anything uncomfortable, this magic array?"

"That's not ......" Shaking his head hesitantly, Jiang Zhe stroked the magic array on the back of his left hand and said, "This magic array is indeed like what Father Andrew said, it has the effect of restraining negative emotions...... In the past, when I felt irritable and angry, this magic array seemed to flow a very peaceful energy......"

"Restrain negative emotions?" Scott was stunned, pushed his glasses and pondered, "I've only heard that those precious magic ornaments have this effect, and this magic array is actually ......" As he spoke, he raised his head, looked at Jiang Zhe and asked suspiciously, "You really can't remember the person who carved this magic array for you?"

"Really!" Jiang Zhe nodded helplessly, he had already said it several times at this noon.

"That's weird......" As he spoke, Scott seemed to think of something and said to Jiang Zhe, "You...... Are you going to Salonia?"

"Why am I going?"

......For some reason, Scott hesitated for a long time before he said what he thought from the bottom of his heart, "Be an apprentice to a great magician...... I've heard of Father Andrew, he's a great magician!"

"So what? I think Professor Huo De can also reach the ...... of the Great Magician," Jiang Zhe said unconcernedly, but as soon as he finished speaking, a self-deprecating joke came from the door.

"It's a pity that I can't reach the level of a great magician!"

"Huh?" Jiang Zhe turned his head in surprise, only to find that Professor Huo De was standing at the door, looking at him with a smile.

"Hello, Professor Hodd!" Scott shouted as he stood up.

"Hmm, hello, Scott!"

"Hey, I said Professor, you're looking good today!" Alan beckoned with a grin as he leaned on the couch.

"You little ghost," Professor Hodd walked in and patted Allen's head, even if he didn't mention the nearly three months in the Rio village, the professor had already become familiar with Scott and Allen, so he didn't care, just nodded lightly to Jiang Zhe and said, "Simply clean up and follow me to a place!"

"Go...... Where are you going?" Jiang Zhe was obviously a little confused.

I saw Professor Huo De let out a long sigh, shook his head and said, "Don't ask, hurry up and pack up!"

"Professor, where are you going?" it seems that Alan is indispensable for everything.

It seemed that Professor Hodd was not very happy to explain this, but when he looked at Allen, he seemed to think of something, and said with a smile, "If you want to go too, I can take you with me!"

"......" Looking at Professor Hodd's strange smile, Scott and Alan looked at each other and said hesitantly, "Professor, how do I feel about this...... Well, forget it, the academy still has courses!"

"What's the course, the dean said, there won't be any classes in a week!" Professor Hodd glanced at Scott and Allen, and said with a smile, "Let's go to [Scottel]!"

"Scott's expression changed slightly, and he said in surprise, "It can't be the magical city Sgedel with the title of [Astrologer's Wheel], right?"

Professor Hodd's smile said it all, though he didn't want to set foot in that place himself...... "How many more Sgdals?" a crisp voice came from the door, with a very familiar hint of mockery.

"It's Lavia," Professor Hodd said, turning his head with a hint of 'uneasiness' and a smile, "are you ready?"

I saw Lavia secretly glance inside the dormitory, nodded like a good girl and said, "Ready, professor......" As soon as the words fell, Jiang Zhe walked out of the inner room with a travel bag in one hand, looked at Lavia and said strangely, "You go too?"

Lavia's cute face suddenly sank, and she said in a very dissatisfied tone, "Why can't I go?"

"Can go, can go......"

"What's your tone?"

"Isn't it just casual talk," Xiao muttered, Jiang Zhe glanced at Scott and Allen, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Scott, Allen, you ......" Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Allen.

"Of course I'm going, Scottel, I've wanted to go to that place since I was very young!"

"What do you want to do?"

"Of course it's ......" approached Jiang Zhe, Alan smiled and said a few words close to his ear, and suddenly saw Jiang Zhe's expression became very strange.

Want to use prophecy and astrology to know in advance who your future wife is?

Jiang Zhe shook his head helplessly, turned his head and asked Scott, "What about you?"

I saw Scott push his glasses like a sign, smiled and said, "How can I pull it down for such a fun thing?"

"Alright," seeing that everyone agreed, Professor Hodd clapped his hands and said, "In that case, you guys hurry up and pack up, this time we are pressed for time, I'll go find a carriage, and you will gather at the school gate in an hour!"

"Okay, Professor!"

After saying this, Professor Huo De turned around and left, at this time, Jiang Zhe had already walked around the bedroom twice, he felt that there was nothing to bring except for the academy magic robe, after all, according to what the professor said, this time there were only four or five days to go back and forth, so what was there to prepare?

Tucking his travel bag under the bed again, looking at Lavia who was looking at him with inexplicable eyes, Jiang Zhe hesitated for a moment, and said first, "I said Lavia, aren't they going this time......?"

"Hmm?" As if she didn't understand what Jiang Zhe meant, Lavia put down the travel bag she was carrying to change her clothes, walked straight to the sofa and sat down, and said lightly, "They still have something to do, last time it was because of ......" Saying that, she seemed to think of something, her expression suddenly sank, and she looked at Jiang Zhe and said in a strange voice, "Then I didn't see you bring that senior sister here......"

Frowning, Jiang Zhe said a little unpleasantly, "What are you talking about?" I'm just casually asking......

"Then I'm just talking casually, what are you excited about?" As she spoke, Lavia changed her sitting position, resting her right leg on her left leg, putting her hands crossed on her knees, and looking at Jiang Zhe with a playful expression.

Although Lavia is crowned with a boy's name, and her surname is also biased towards boys, especially her face, I don't think anyone will describe her with cuteness, only her heroism can be described, not to mention her eyes, just those two sword-like eyebrows are enough to scare away ordinary boys, but in terms of the curves of her body, Lavia can obviously laugh at girls of the same age, although she is only a little girl of twelve or thirteen, although the wide magic robe covers most of her curves...... Not to mention, there is really a taste or two of mature women...... "I'm excited?" I saw Jiang Zhe show a disagreeing look, shook his head self-deprecatingly, walked to the sofa, and stretched out his hand to pat Lavia's right leg off her left leg.

"What do you do?"

"You're in my way, thank you!"

"You!" Not surprisingly, Lavia's face was flushed with anger by Jiang Zhe again, she glared at the boy in front of her fiercely, changed her sitting posture and said in a strange voice, "Anyway, there is still an hour to go, why don't you call your senior sister together?" Oh, it seems that you called her name directly, right?

"Hehe," he glanced at Lavia, then at Jiang Zhe, Alan smiled, squeezed his eyes at Jiang Zhe and said, "Man, let's go clean up the ......" said as he angrily snorted at Scott.

"Huh!" Scott shook his head helplessly, got up and went to the back room with Allen.

Seeing that his two best friends were very 'interesting' to retreat, but Jiang Zhe's bad mood did not get any better because of this, I saw that he stared at Lavia silently for a while, and stared at the other party to the ground and actively avoided the proud gaze, so he said angrily, "What do you want to do......!

Lavia's expression suddenly sank, and she slapped the sofa and said angrily, "Who is making trouble unreasonably?"

"Okay, okay," Jiang Zhe shook his head helplessly and said, "Isn't it just a piece of fiery red stone, I'll exchange you for ten pieces in the future, okay!"

"Ten pieces, to put it lightly, where do you go to find ten pieces of fiery stone?" Looking at the boy in front of her and muttering, Lavia suddenly came to her senses, frowned, and said angrily, "What's the matter with that stone?" as she spoke, biting her lip and muttering in a voice that she could only hear, "Besides, that's not the same at all......

"Aren't you just for that stone?"

"Not really!"

"Oh?" Glancing at Lavia in surprise, Jiang Zhe asked suspiciously, "Why is that?"

"For ......" I saw Lavia biting her lip, secretly glanced at the boy, and after hesitating for a long time, she shook her head and said, "It's okay!"

“...... Inexplicable!" Staring at Lavia suspiciously, Jiang Zhe hesitated and said, "Lavia, just say something ......"

"It's okay," glanced at Jiang Zhe with a little impatience, and Lavia's voice suddenly lowered, "That's ...... Soth, didn't I tell you not to call your name in the future?"

"Don't call you by your name?" Glancing at Lavia, Jiang Zhe asked suspiciously, "Why?"

"Because ......" I saw Lavia lower her head, biting her lip and thinking for a while, suddenly as if she thought of something, and whispered, "Because this name is not good......"

"Doesn't it sound good?" Jiang Zhe was stunned, read a few words of Lavia's name softly, and muttered, "It's pretty good......" As soon as the words fell, as soon as he looked up, he saw Lavia's dissatisfied and resentful eyes, and quickly changed his words and said, "Hmm, yes, yes, it's really not good, I remember it's a boy's name......" As he spoke, he paused and asked suspiciously, "Then what do I call you, I can't call you 'hey', right?"

"Stupid!" I saw Lavia muttering softly, raising her head and pretending to be nonchalant and said, "In the future, you can call me Ivey, although it still looks like a boy's name, but it's much better than that one......"

"Ivy, Ivey?" Jiang Zhe lowered his head and muttered a few words, and when he looked up, he was about to speak, but he saw Lavia's face flushed, and asked in surprise, "You...... Is it hot?"

It was a very ordinary sentence, but Lavia's whole body was shocked, and she quickly raised her right hand and fanned it, stammering, "Indeed...... Indeed, your room is a bit hot......"

"Is it hot?" Jiang Zhe turned his head to look at the fireplace, and the wood in the fireplace was barely visible...... As if seeing the boy's strange eyes, Lavia smiled reluctantly, and quickly changed the topic and said, "Soth, do you know Scottel? a magical city with the title of [House of Astrologers]......"

"I know!" Jiang Zhe shrugged.

Apparently, Lavia was surprised by the boy's answer, and asked in surprise, "You...... Do you know? Where did you know that?"

I saw Jiang Zhe jokingly shaking his head and saying, "From Scott and what you know......"

“......”

Obviously, Lavia is a very strict girl and doesn't like to joke, she glanced at Jiang Zhe and said angrily, "I'm serious with you, don't joke!"

Seeing that Lavia seemed to have forgotten about the fiery red stone, Jiang Zhe was also happy to follow her, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Yes, yes, I don't know, you say ......"

"That's pretty much it, so I'll give you a brief introduction, anyway, the professor will introduce it when the time comes......" As she spoke, Lavia blinked and said softly, "Sgdal, it's also a magical city......

"I already know that......"

"Shut up!" glared at the boy fiercely, and the girl slowly introduced the city of Scottel, as if the two met for the first time, as if the girl usually explained the principles of magic to the boy, and every time at this time, the girl's eyes would show a little smugness, and the corners of her mouth were often upturned......" Soth, do you know that the history of Scottel is as long as our Reox, in the entire wizarding world, although there are only two kinds of black mages and white mages, but in addition to these two, there are still some special mages who have not mastered powerful lethal magic, but they can do some things that black mages and white mages can't...... I've told you before, I think you should remember, magic comes from alchemy, black magic comes from the dark power of the abyss demons, and white magic comes from the natural power of the elves, but in addition to the two, there are also some special magic applications, such as enchantment, making scrolls, making potions, etc., which belong to alchemy at the beginning of the formation of magic, the original alchemy does not only refer to the production of magic props, the real alchemy actually includes [refining] and [enchantment] , refining is the usual production of magic props, but not only magic props, small as accessories and weapons that can increase the power of magic, as large as magic arrays that can move long distances, as the basic defense facilities of fortresses, powerful magic crystal cannons, and even well-structured alchemy dolls, well, that is, what is commonly referred to as magic puppets...... In addition to the two major classifications of black magicians and white magicians, if we make a more formal and accurate distinction, in the vast wizarding world, modern times can be roughly divided into [magician], [dark mage], [alchemist], [astrologer] four kinds, all magic faction categories are basically included, [magician] includes black magician, white magician, illusionist, summoner, spellcaster, etc.; Since his power comes from trading with demons, to be precise, he cannot be classified among the black mages, and all magicians who obtain power through trading or sacrifice belong to dark mages, while [alchemists] include enchanters, apothecaries, scroll masters, puppeteers, etc., which do not have very strong power themselves, but they can make a lot of useful things, and the last category is [astrologers] In fact, I don't know much about astrologers, I only know that astrologers themselves don't have much power, and some are not even as good as you...... But at the same time, they know something that ordinary people can't know, they study the stars, they think they have great powers, and they have the power to predict or probe some secret that some astrologers can even calculate the time of death...... And Scottel is a magical city that belongs to astrologers, of course, this was the case in the past, and now there are some magicians and alchemists who live in that place, and unlike my Reoks, Sgdal is not an academy, but a place where some knowledgeable magicians exchange academics, and the most famous building in Sgdal is the [Mage Tower-Vander] that has stood since the early days of the empire, the ancient language represents lightning and thunder, and it is the most majestic affix.

Legend has it that whoever dares to desecrate this sacred mage tower must bear the wrath of Thor...... I heard that the royal chief magician, the respected Grand Magician, Hastings, once studied magic in this mage tower with a [sage], that is, a holy magician......"

As she was talking, Lavia looked up and saw Jiang Zhe with a questioning face, only to see him frowning, thinking about something.

"The Royal Chief Magician...... Hastings...... Holy Magician?"

"What's wrong, Soth, what's wrong?"

"No, no," shaking his head, Jiang Zhe said uncertainly, "I seem to have heard that name somewhere......"

Lavia looked disapproving, and said angrily, "I thought it was, but he was a great magician, what's so strange about hearing his name?"

"No, you don't understand, I'm talking about ......" I saw Jiang Zhe frowning, shaking his head again and again and said, "It seems to be ...... It seems like where...... And the word Holy Magician, I seem to ......"

"Looks like something!" Glancing at Jiang Zhe angrily, Lavia crossed her hands on her lap and said easily, "It's about the same time, don't let the professor wait, let's go, South!" As she spoke, she stood up and shouted to the inside, "Scott, Allen, I'm not waiting for you......"

As soon as the words fell, Allen's fussy voice came from inside, "Don't, don't, that's going to delay my big thing!"

"What's the big deal?" Scott, who came out with him, asked suspiciously, only to see Alan smile, squeeze his eyes and say, "Hehe, I won't tell you!"

"You...... Love to say it or not!"

While the two of them were arguing on the side, Jiang Zhe was still thinking hard about the words that he was very familiar with, especially the affix of the holy magician...... 'Great magician, so what......?

“...... Become a Holy Mage!"
