Chapter 48: Steady

Lizzie is a little bored right now.

After watching Curt knock that monster down last night, Lizzie's magic wasn't enough to sustain her soul bond for longer. So she left a sentence of "contact me again if you have something" and cut off contact with Curt. As a result, at the end of the night, the small stones used for communication did not make any noise.

Curt loves new things, and under his influence, Lizzie is also curious about her own uncharted territory. Living at Catrice College was exposed to a lot of things that she hadn't considered before, and they were really interesting to her when she first came into contact with them.

But after all, there are few new things, and more time she still has to sit in a fixed position and listen to the teachers teach courses that she is not very interested in.

In fact, Lizzie is used to staying in a fixed position for long periods of time, but this can only be achieved if there are books that allow her to read. The textbooks assigned by the academy have been made by her in the past few days, and almost all the knowledge in them can be said to be what she already knows.

The current spell weaving class was about "how to use magic effectively", and it was a pointless lesson for Lizzie. She looked up at the dancing teacher on the podium, a tall man named Disca, who liked to "perform" lessons in his own way, just as Jon had introduced before.

Disca dressed quite a gentleman and was meticulously dressed despite the hot weather. It should be born with a light golden head, and with high-end clothes, he looks heroic. From this outfit and his words and deeds, Clarisch could vaguely see an incompatible range.

Yes, as if in a stage play, this man's behavior was exaggerated—as if he was deliberately emphasizing the feeling of being different.

She somewhat understood Jon's unpleasant expression to him during the previous introduction to the course.

"My classmates, you must know that spellcasting is not just a technique, but an art. Now standing on the podium, Discar thought he was elegantly waving the baton-like prop in his hand, "We want to convey the power of the soul to the world and play ordinary music." ”

It's really a superficial description, and the wording is quite lame. This guy couldn't have come to the academy to poison the students after trying to get a poet's license but didn't pass it, right? Lizzie put one hand on her cheek and posed as if she was listening to the lecture carefully, in fact, she had already damaged Disca's heart.

"Miss Leinster, please stand up—have you listened to me?"

Although Disca looked unreliable, as a teacher, he was still very light, and Lizzie did not concentrate on her schoolwork. He took an exaggerated step forward as if to express his displeasure, and called Lizzie out in a tone that was clearly frustrated.

Lizzie staggered to her feet and whispered, "I'm listening, Mr. Disca." ”

She always appears to be lazy when she moves around school, and she deliberately lowers her voice in order to conform to her own image. These disguises are matched with her thin appearance, and many people affirm the impression that she is a weak and sickly powerless girl.

"Very well, since you have listened to the lecture, let's examine how much you have mastered a little. He pursed his lips and smiled kindly, "We've already talked about a few simple spell weaving methods in the previous lesson, so let's briefly talk about their characteristics. ”

A few simple ways to weave spells?Lizzie began to recall the contents of the book.

Spell weaving is a technique between ancient spells and modern spells, in the past, it was used directly to drive spells, there were various means of construction, but now it has a fixed form in magic machines, and each magic machine has a specific weaving structure.

"I remember there should be three, which are linear structures, triangular structures, and annular structures. Lizzie replied as best she could, "Early spells used a linear structure, and this form of spell weaving tended to be short, flat and fast, which is the structure of the basic spells we commonly use. ”

After a slight pause, she continued, "Triangles and rings are enhanced variants of linear structures, and both can be used to drive spells. The triangular structure is very stable, but the disadvantage is that there is less magic that can be filled. The ring-like structure, on the other hand, is filled with more magic and loses its stability. ”

"That's a good answer, it seems that you are really listening to the lecture and reviewing and previewing. Discarpi said with a non-smirk, "Then I'll test you again—can you make a ball of light that illuminates any of these three spell weaves?"

This topic is somewhat of a test of spell manipulation, but it's not that difficult. At the average level of the apprentices in this class, it is possible to create illuminated light balls in either linear structure or the other two, with the only difference being in the strength and duration of the spells.

As for Lizzie, her magic is more than enough to allow her to create a ball of light that blinds everyone present. The problem she faced was how to make herself use the Guò Academy's magic machine to cast a light ball that was normal enough to illuminate, while also making her appear to be unskilled in using spells.

It is not easy to deliberately make yourself look like yourself.

She pondered, closing her eyes and allowing herself to concentrate on the process of powering the spell. The magic tools equipped by the academy are naturally not as easy as the ones that are used to them, and the poor quality workmanship also makes the casting of spells more difficult, so Lizzie has to be more careful with this spell casting.

The spell weave used is a triangular structure, a simple structure with a small mana volume and can only embed three-digit concepts at the vertices. The lack of output is the biggest disadvantage of the triangular structure, but for this spell that requires control of the force, this is just right.

A small amount of the magic flowing through the body is extracted and refined, and injected into the glove-shaped magic machine at the slowest degree. Since failing the last summoning test, Lizzie has been careful every time she uses this "glove" to cast spells, for fear that she will cause some trouble with the overflowing mana.

The glow of magic shines through the fingertips to create a small triangular Rubik's Cube, a pale hue that suggests it prompts notions that no properties are yet embedded. Lizzie pondered the ancient words she had to fill in as she slowly swiped her fingertips and began to write the foundations of the driving spells.

The first word is the foundation of the foundation, which represents the word "light". The words are like a dazzling sun, outlining the most primitive incandescent impression. Under the influence of the concept, the triangular Rubik's cube shimmered with a faint layer of light, and gradually became brighter.

The infusion of mana is sufficient, and if it continues to be output, the Rubik's Cube will collapse due to the balance being broken. Lizzie stopped her accusation at the first word and began to write down the second concept, "Limit". Uncontrolled forces can harm others, and blinding light can deprive vision and must be limited if it is to be used.

The triangular Rubik's Cube was easily able to adjust its intensity, and the gradually dazzling light dimmed and softened a lot as soon as the concept was filled. Seeing that the momentum of the rapid intensification had been curtailed, Lizzie raised her hand to write the last words in the remaining space.

"Stable dìng", this status is not important in the overall spell, but Li Qi doesn't want the illuminated light ball spell she has compiled to be successfully released and extinguished because of the bad stability of the dìng. This concept reinforces the stability of the spell structure itself, while also consuming more mana.

The spell structure is weaved, and Lizzie raises her hand to fill the magic used to drive it into the Rubik's Cube.

Buzz –

In an instant, a sphere of faint white light was born within the triangular Rubik's Cube. The orb didn't possess the light and heat of high-level illumination, just a restrained, gentle shimmer. It is like the light in the house that people see when they return at night, revealing a little warmth and light.

"I have to say you're really outstanding, Miss Leinster. Discar clapped his hands, the smile on his face looking fake, "It's a pity that your method of casting spells is too conservative and cautious, lacking the passion of a young man, and even less the artistic sense of mine." ”

I'm sorry, but I don't want to have any of your "artistic sense" - Lizzie muttered in her stomach, still with her usual gloomy expression on her face. Disca's words and actions made her feel quite irritable, especially his overly pretentious demeanor.

I don't know if he saw Liqi's disgust, and the smile on his face didn't change a little: "Okay, now you can sit down, please continue to listen carefully." ”

A few minutes later, the bell rang for the end of class, and Lizzie walked out of the classroom in an unhappy mood. In the lesson just now, Disca still insisted on his usual style, and Lizzie's impression of him became quite bad. She was on the same page as Jon, and while she didn't like his style of teaching, she couldn't question his talent.

This spell weaving lesson is the last lesson of the day, and after the class, the apprentices can move around the academy or join the club themselves. Through the hallway window, Lizzie caught a glimpse of Danvers in a hurry, blending in with the bustling crowd in the direction of the Silver Tower.

"Miss Leinster, please wait a moment. ”

Just as she was about to catch up with Danfoss in the crowd, Jon's voice suddenly came from behind her. Turning her head, the honorable boy stood at the top of the stairs staring at her, the difference in the stairs giving Lizzie the illusion that he was looking down on her.

"What's the matter?"

She was in a bit of a hurry, Danfoss was walking in the crowd, and if he didn't catch up quickly, he would probably miss the opportunity to keep up with him.

"No...... Actually, it's not a very important thing. Jon scratched his cheek and said, "Miss Mabel told you that every apprentice must attend a book club according to the Academy's requirements. Because you are a transfer student, you have to choose the book club you want to join in these few days. ”

"Book club?"

Lizzie asked rhetorically, she had heard Hepburn mention the term before, but she hadn't looked into it at the time.

"Well, it's an organization where apprentices learn from each other. The academy stipulates that apprentices can exchange their learning results and spell casting methods in small groups in their spare time......"

"yes, I see. ”

Lizzie interrupted Jon's introduction.

"All in all, it's something like a study group, right? I didn't know what was going on when I first came to the academy, so it was a bit difficult for me to choose one of them to join. Well, since the academy rules that everyone must participate in one group, then I can participate in the same group as you. ”

"Now, if you don't have anything else to say, allow me to leave. She said, her voice becoming a little hurried, "I still have some things to deal with." ”

Before Jon, who was confused by Lizzie's snatching, saw her turn around and run down the stairs.
