Volume 1 Juvenile Chapter 81 Contradictions
"Randy, move all these magic scrolls to the training grounds."
"Oh, okay."
It's been a while since I stayed in school to train
Colaire didn't know where to get a bunch of scrolls, packed them in boxes, and let me move them from the office to the training ground.
With my hands clutching the wooden box, I finally walked up the stairs and reached the first floor, already out of breath.
First of all, I want to make a point that I've been exercising lately.
In addition, I have good living habits and no habit of pulling radishes, so I am not kidney deficiency, and I am tired and have back pain after walking two steps.
Putting the wooden box down, I looked at the magic scroll inside and tried to pick one up.
Good guys, as heavy as dumbbells.
Honestly putting it back, I thought about whether I should find someone to come over and help move the box together.
"Need help?"
A familiar voice came from behind me.
When I turned my head, I saw that it was Lilith who had come to me, looking at me expectantly.
She still wears a ponytail, a magenta tight-fitting outfit on the top half, and a short pale red floral skirt on the bottom.
Before I could reply, she grabbed the edge of the crate with her left hand and motioned for me to lift it up.
I leaned over, stretched out my right hand, and joined her hand to carry the wooden box, and the weight suddenly became much lighter.
I just wanted to get the task done as quickly as possible, so I didn't make small talk to Lilith.
"How have you been training lately?"
Lilith took the initiative to speak.
I looked at her and muttered for a moment, "Okay, let's start working on how to use the magic scroll now."
In addition, it seems that you have to prepare the materials yourself and learn to make it in the future. ”
"Well, you'll be doing well, the magic scroll is easy for you."
"Uh...... Why do you feel that? ”
"Because you behaved so well last time, ......"
"Shh
I made a silencing gesture and whispered, "Don't tell me what happened last time!" ”
Lilith immediately closed her mouth, and quickly spoke again: "I understand, you are afraid that you will be punished for running out of school without permission, and Teacher Sasha and I will keep this secret for you." ”
"It's good to know." I replied coldly, relieved.
Lilith said, "So the magic scroll must be very simple for you, and Teacher Sasha is very supportive of you joining the magic competition team, and she must think so." ”
I laughed at myself, "I've only recently come into contact with this thing, and due to my talent, I've become a crane tail in this area, and I still don't know how to open the magic scroll." ”
"Well, then you can ask someone else and let them teach you." Lilith said.
I shook my head and said, "I don't have a good relationship with them, and I'm just a logistician, so I can't afford to let them spend time teaching me." ”
Lilith said, "Then you go to the teacher for help, I know a few of them, and I have been in contact with magic scrolls with the help of the teacher for a long time."
They're nothing remarkable, they're just learning a little bit in advance. ”
"Uh-oh."
I replied weakly, feeling not in a good mood.
In the school, only two teachers, Sasha and Colare, remained.
Wayne, Vic, and Marie, all of them went out to spend half a year with the students who interned with the Adventurers' Guild.
I wanted Wayne to help, but it wasn't possible.
Sasha wasn't very good at magic.
And Claire's attitude towards me is not good, probably because I am a poor student in his eyes.
He gave me a maximum of two verbal instructions during training and spent most of his time and energy on other people.
Some teachers are like this, poor students can be guided at most twice, and what really makes him interested is always the excellent students in his eyes.
I took the initiative to ask for advice, but in exchange for it, I got a perfunctory "wait a little" and "try someone else".
"Randy!"
Lilith suddenly called out to me.
"Uh, what's wrong?"
I looked at her suspiciously.
"Did you receive anything I gave you?" Lilith had a slight crimson on her face, and she looked a little shy.
I buttoned my nose and said coldly, "What gift?" ”
"Ah, you didn't ...... Don't you see the snacks I put on your table every morning?
There were canned food, beef jerky, biscuits, sweets and the like......"
Lilith suddenly had a sad expression.
I thought back for a moment and said, "Not really, but in recent days, I've been bumping into the Sethneys rummaging through my place, sometimes with a lot of fruit and canned food in their hands.
By the way, they often give me cookies. ”
"A cookie in the shape of a heart?" Lilith asked.
"Hmm!" I nodded.
I noticed that Lilith was silent, her head down and thinking about something.
Looking at the way she looks, did she really give me a gift?
I remembered that Heck had reminded me that Cessney and Dai Nina had stolen something from my desk.
It was Lilith who stuffed the snacks into my drawer every morning, and then the two sisters waited for the rabbit to take the contents by hand.
But why did Lilith do this, to thank me for saving my life last time?
Yes, it must be.
You can't do it because you like me, right?
It's impossible, she went to the love hotel to book a table for the men's ticket, which means that there is someone she likes, and it is definitely not me.
"Randy, I want to tell you, I like ......"
"Hey, come over here and help, we've got our stuff here!
Uh, excuse me, what did you just say? ”
Lilith and I finally arrived at the training ground, and when I saw the few people training in front of me, I immediately yelled in their direction.
I looked at her in surprise as if I had heard Lilith say something to me.
"Nothing."
Lilith shook her head in denial, but I didn't pay much attention to it, so I didn't follow in.
"You two hurry up, I'm running out of magic scrolls here."
"It's slow."
"Randy, are you a turtle!"
……
What made me unhappy was that instead of helping, the few people who were training in front of me were shouting at Lilith and me.
After putting down the wooden box, the scroll inside was quickly snatched up by the four of Trevor.
When I turned around, I found that Lilith had already run to the playground opposite, probably on her way to training.
Watching Trevor and the others become proficient in using scrolls one by one, I want to learn along.
Because the magic scroll is a one-time consumable, it cannot be brought into the spirit space of the ring.
Otherwise, with Elena's help, I would have been able to figure it out little by little.
I've been busy with chores for the last few days, and I don't have much time to practice during the day, so naturally Elena can't help.
"Well, Mike, can you teach me how to use the scroll, excuse me."
I poked Mike in the back, and he looked back at me, took the scroll I had managed to get my hands on, and easily spread it out before handing it to me.
"Practice slowly on your own."
The scroll has a fairly intricate pattern drawn on it.
Claire calls this a spell diagram, and it's pretty much the same as the magic circle.
It is the use of refined magic ink to draw patterns similar to magic circles on a limited number of scroll drawings.
Magic ink has its own magic power, so you don't need to pour too much magic into the texture, you can use it directly by spreading out the shaped scroll to release the corresponding magic.
I saw Mike spread out a blue scroll, which glowed and floated in front of him.
He didn't even recite the incantation when a water bullet flew out of the scroll and hit the target in front of him.
After doing this, the light on the reels dimmed and fell to the ground.
Quietly using the Elven Eye to observe, I noticed that the scroll had lost any of its magic.
I used it like Mike, and it seemed like I was just drawing a scoop from a gourd, and I couldn't do anything.
The scroll can't float in the air, not even glow.
"Mike, what's going on with this scroll of mine, why can't I use it, come and help me."
"Harm, you must not have infused enough spiritual power into it, and some scrolls are not so easy to open."
Franklin had some trouble using the magic scroll.
Mike's past help and careful guidance are in stark contrast to his previous attitude towards me.
I don't think I'm very popular.
I felt a little lost in my heart, but I quickly picked myself up.
In my opinion, except for the genius and the mentally retarded.
There is not much difference between ordinary people in terms of intelligence and ability.
But why are there so many differences between people?
In addition to talent, it is just because everyone's resources are different and their fates are different.
Successful people often find what they are good at and develop gradually.
Ordinary people appear mediocre because they haven't found what they're good at and don't have enough opportunities for trial and error.
When people continue to hone and learn in the same position, they will gradually become familiar with the unique rules in this area, and practice makes perfect.
It's the same with high society.
That's why it seems so capable in the eyes of others.
I don't think they're better than me.
They just learned a certain skill and became familiar with a certain rule before I did.
I just need a certain amount of time to have the ability to stand side by side with them, or even surpass them.
Just as I was about to try to instill mental power in the magic scroll, a noise caught my attention.
"Look, there's a fight on the playground."
"These two school bullies are causing trouble again?"
"They are actually fighting with real knives and guns, aren't they afraid of missing and getting hurt!"
……
Trevor, Franklin, and Mike and Arthur stopped practicing.
Seeing this, I curiously followed their gaze and found the other end of the playground.
Lilith is fighting Cessney and Daynina with her cross-swordsman.
At the moment, the scene is two against one.
Lilith did not fall behind at all, the shuriken flowers flew, and a set of sword moves fell, and the two sisters were defeated and retreated.
Didn't I remember that Lilith was on the physical arts competition team, how could she still use a sword?
Oh, I remember.
She should be the student who has both swordsmanship and physical skills, and the key training object of Sasha.
Lilith let out a cry of pain.
Under the watchful eyes of the students, I saw that she was attacked by Dai Nina in the back, and her clothes cut a hole.
Cessney took the opportunity to press over and attack, but Lilith directly repelled it, almost knocking the bone sword out of the opponent's hand.
"Stop, what are you doing?"
Sasha appeared at this time and gave a scolding, which made the three people who were fighting stop.
