Ilya Academy of Magic.

on a wide lawn.

Huge open cloth canopy, huge long tables, lights and candles as if it were day. A series of waiters dressed in white clothes constantly bring food from the makeshift kitchen, gradually spreading the long table, meat, vegetables, fruits, drinks, and even some alcohol and magic potions that are prohibited among the people, and the atmosphere is lively.

A 35-member orchestra was arranged in the corner, playing the third movement of the famous composer Chelfer's Solo Violin Concerto in D major, a cheerful, hilarious and joyful piece that was very much in keeping with the noisy atmosphere of the opening dinner.

According to the custom of the Western Continent, after the second round of toasting, the music gradually changes to a soft and melodious tune, and the people attending the banquet gradually lower their voices and enter their own social time.

When Colin was in Thunder City, he almost never attended similar dinners, and as a disciple of Roman Sagan, no one dared to force him to attend, but when he got here, many things became involuntary.

Welcome Felix's dinner, as one of the professors of the college, it is really unreasonable not to attend.

The Western Continent is keen on all kinds of dinner parties, and most of the atmosphere of Thunder City is also learned from here.

But it's good to experience it once in a while, the fine food, the expensive drinks, the ladies in elegant gowns, and the music is a bit loud, but the rest is perfect.

Dorothy came over with a tall glass and said with a smile:

"Professor Snape just came here, I don't think I have a female companion yet, there will be a dance music in a while, do you need help?"

"No, ma'am, I'm afraid that if I show my dancing stance, I will return to Osteria in anger on the spot."

Colin glanced at Dorothy casually, and instantly choked for breath.

This lady is wearing a backless one-piece dress today, showing off her body advantages, slender thighs, white skin, and more attentive makeup, sexy and charming, and she is also the most dazzling one among the ladies.

"You're really good at laughing, as a native of Brighton Wolves, can you still dance?"

"This ...... I'm a special case. ”

For the first time, Colin found that his authentic accent would cause unnecessary trouble, but fortunately, today is not a dance party, and even if there is a dance music stage, it is not rude not to participate.

Dorothy saw that Colin's hands were empty, and took a glass of Fran from the silver platter of the waiter passing by, turned around, and handed it over.

"You can't dance, you can't stop drinking."

"Thank you."

Colin took it, and just as he was about to say something, he saw Ackerman coming over.

Dorothy saw that the two seemed to have something to say, and after bending her knees slightly, she turned to leave.

"Miss Dorothy seems to have taken extra care of Mr. Snape." The head of the spell department, who was in his sixties, glanced at the wine glass in Colin's hand with ambiguous eyes.

Colin looked down and found that there was a red lip print on his wine glass, and it seemed that when the other party turned around just now, he took the wine glass he had drunk to himself, and this teasing meaning could not be more obvious.

"H.E. Ackerman......"

"You don't have to explain." Ackerman smiled, "Miss Dorothy is currently single, and there is no rule in the academy that there should be no super-friendship between faculty members, not to mention that as far as I know, Mr. Snape is not married yet...... It doesn't hurt to have a wife, I remember the lady in Brighton always ...... very sensible"

Colin remembered the persona he had set up in front of Principal Hans, smiled and raised his glass, "Your Excellency Ackermann, I was actually about to complain that you interrupted my good deed......"

"Hahaha......"

Ackerman burst out laughing, "That's really my fault. Then he leaned over and lowered his voice and said, "Don't worry, after the dinner, I will provide you with a chance." ”

Without waiting for Colin to answer, Ackerman straightened up again, "But Professor Snape, you've done me a miserable mess this time. ”

"Uh...... Your Excellency Ackerman, where do you start with that? Colin wondered.

"Your report on the impact of the water element's high-energy collapse on the water system magic pattern was seen by His Excellency Felix at a glance as an improvement of the spell model of the water arrow, and I was humble in advance that it was only a small discovery."

"Compared to the great Lord Ellers Whale, it is indeed a small discovery." Colin smiled modestly, not surprised, he had never expected this to be able to hide from Felix.

"I don't understand a thing, why don't you just say it's about a refinement of the spell model?" Ackerman is clearly still a little grappling.

"This ...... I can't be blamed for this, Your Excellency Ackerman. ”

"Why?"

"The name of the subject is set by the academy, so I can't change it at will." Colin said a little innocently.

Ackerman paused for a moment, and then remembered that this was indeed the case, in order to catch up with the trend, the academy just gave a random topic name and put it there, and originally didn't expect anyone to really choose it, but where did he think that there would be a freak.

The two looked at each other for a moment, then laughed at the same time.

"Let's go, I'll take you to meet Your Excellency Felix, he must be very interested in you." Ackerman's warm invitation.

Colin said as he walked in the direction of the guest of honor, "But I'm more interested in the female magician of the six people who accompanied His Excellency Felix. ”

Ackerman laughed again: "It's good to be young." ”

Come to the guest of honor area.

Ackerman patted Colin on the back familiarly.

"Your Excellency Felix, let me introduce you, this is Professor Cohen Snape, who was fortunate enough to be hired by the Illia School of Magic, Cambriggie High Achievers."

"Professor Snape, I don't believe I need to introduce you, this is Lord Felix."

Felix's eyes fell on Colin's face.

Tall and thin, with a slightly sallow face, not handsome, but in general an ordinary young magician.

Colin was the first to say, "Hello, Your Excellency Felix, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”

Not every great mage would like their title, and Felix was one of them, and as an expert in elemental theory, he had never been very happy with his title of "going with the flow".

Originally, this was to describe his water magic as superb and profound, often able to kill opponents without realizing it, but when it comes to the study of magic, there is always a sense of lack of opinion.

Therefore, no one who is familiar with him will take the initiative to mention it.

"Hello, Mr. Snape." Felix took the initiative to stretch out his hand: "I'm very interested in your project report, I can see that you are also very accomplished in elemental theory, I don't know if you are interested in going to Osteria, the magic pattern department of the Wilner Higher School of Magic, which is also very famous." ”

Colin's first reaction when he saw Felix was to think of Veronica, who was still in Werner, who was originally scheduled to visit the Western Continent for a total of one year, but now he was stranded for two years in Osteria alone, and the key was her teacher Blanche, although the old guy was dying, but under the care of a group of magicians, he couldn't die.

Maybe that's a really good idea.

Ilya finished his business, went to Osteria, and everything fell into place.

However, this sentence sounded a bit harsh to Hans, Ackermann and others.

Headmaster Hans coughed twice and said with a smile: "Your Excellency Felix, it doesn't seem good that you are digging the foot of the wall in front of us like this......

Felix was used to going straight and was a little embarrassed at this time. After being embarrassed, I saw a young female magician behind him stand up and say with a smile: "What Your Excellency Felix means is that when the Duchy of Banner joins the Blue Alliance in the future, and everyone becomes a member of the Federation, there will be no need to divide each other. ”

Even if they joined the alliance, the major colleges still had a competitive relationship, but these words not only gave Felix a step, but also talked about everyone's common goal, and the atmosphere instantly became happy.

Colin glanced at the person who spoke, who was one of the six magicians who had followed Felix, and the only female magician among them.

Thinking that he had just teased the other party with Ackerman, he subconsciously turned his head, and sure enough, he saw that the head of the spell department who was disrespectful to the old man was winking at him slightly.

I wanted to write a chapter in the morning, but when I thought that today was the release of Mystery II, I was so excited that I couldn't write it anymore. Everyone went to see it at half past twelve.
