"Clean up this place too, yes, this is it."

In the open hallway next to the school's internal auditorium, Alicia is directing a group of knee-high goblins to clean the hallway, making final preparations for welcoming students.

The leprechauns, dressed in green and wearing little hats, were using magic to control their brooms and sweep the corners.

After a round of cleaning, they would put a dust-proof spell all over these castles, and by that time it would be easy to clean up, only once every few years.

In addition to cleaning, these goblins are also responsible for washing clothes, cooking, and tending to the garden.

Char originally wanted to hire some elves to do these jobs inside the castle, but those elves were obviously more interested in freedom than working for anyone.

So Char also moved his attention to these little goblins, they don't have the arrogance of elves, nor the rudeness of dwarves, but sometimes they are more cunning and like to play pranks.

But these things Char can actually tolerate.

Char had originally planned to pay these goblins a salary of one gold coin a month.

The favorite thing these goblins love most is gold, and they should be able to hire them.

However, Alicia stopped her, and she went with Char to talk to the goblins, and finally set the price of one pint of milk a day and a dozen eggs at the end of the month.

The elves don't live in the White City in the land of the elves, they don't have the magic that the elves can do, they have a lot of ancient knowledge, they don't have the powerful forging skills of the dwarves, and they don't have the engineering skills of the goblins.

The only thing they can really say is to make shoes, and the straw house that Char saw when he went to White City was their house.

It's not that they like to live in a straw house, it's that they can only live in that kind of house.

They especially like to drink milk and eat eggs, but they don't breed, so the only way to get these two things is to milk bison and go to the mountains to find pheasant eggs.

The cows and chickens of the Fairy Land are no ordinary animals.

Alicia must have read the information book about them, so she hit them to the point.

Char doesn't care about money, but it's not a bad thing to spend less.

Sacili milk is cheap, and the cost of a whole year may not be as good as the students' books.

On one side of the corridor is the Arvac Tree, which supports the entire land of the empty island, with a thick trunk like a pillar reaching the sky, and every time you stand here and look up at this giant tree, you will feel small.

However, although the trees are thick, they do not completely block all the scenery, and through the gaps on the left and right sides, you can still see the sea of clouds parallel to the empty island.

The silver moonlight seemed to crush all the silence and swayed down, and also swayed on Alicia's silver hair, like a princess of the moon.

Alicia turned her head and saw Char coming back, she smiled and said, "How is it, is the thing done?" ”

"It's all done."

Char stepped forward, and the two naturally kissed each other on the cheek.

"Tony made a compass to find a mana adaptor." "When the business in the castle is done," said Alicia, "I'll let these goblins take a compass and invite the right students through the door." ”

"Student invitations are really an issue." Char muttered softly.

"When I have time, I'll make a wide-area magic radar."

At this moment, Tony's voice came from behind him.

Char turned around, Tony at this moment was really too different from the previous day, wearing a dress worn by the people of the Fairy Country, using leather as the main material.

He wears a pair of zoom glasses with a lot of lenses, but the most striking thing is the armor-like thing he wears on his right hand.

The other hand appears to have been made of dwarven prosthetic techniques, with tools attached to it.

A mad scientist in a steampunk style.

"I need a carrier to practice the formation, and for the convenience of use, I am drawing the formation formation on the hand armor."

Seeing Char looking at his hand armor, Tony spoke.

"I used some Mithril to circulate mana."

Tony fumbled around his body, pulled out a few bills and handed them to Char.

"You remember to be reimbursed."

Char smiled helplessly, the study of alchemy costs a lot of money, and Tony has now become a reimbursement king, and he asks Char to reimburse him for various bills every once in a while.

But it can't be helped, and he gave him an unlimited research fund.

"We can set up an automated admissions system." "Start with a wide-area magic detection radar to detect magically gifted school-age children.

Finally, the magic pen is triggered to automatically write the admissions letter, and then let something be sent. ”

He thought for a moment, "Or when I get the AI, we can send it with a drone." ”

"You can raise some falcons to deliver letters." Char said.

Tony's eyes lit up, "That's okay, it's the most convenient way, I've heard that fairy magic can communicate with animals, right?" ”

He looked at Alicia, who thought for a moment and nodded, "Almost, I can give it a try." ”

"Have you ever raised anything before?" Tony asked.

"I had a pet." Alicia said.

Tony nodded, the falcon is not an easy thing to raise, and having experience with cats and dogs also helps her to a certain extent.

"When do you want to start school?" Tony asked.

"March 1st." Char said.

"So it's only a month," Tony muttered under his breath, "that looks like he's busy." ”

As mentioned before, not all magic apprentices can cast spells without a wand, with the exceptions of Char, Alicia, and Isabel.

So, in order to welcome these magic apprentices, they also need to prepare some staffs.

Every student is a different individual, and the characteristics of magic are all different, and this is not an assembly line thing.

It is necessary to make more staffs according to different characteristics to provide more options, and this job, Char handed over to Tony, who has alchemy.

Of course, he would definitely pull the friend who taught him alchemy to make a staff together.

All in all, Char outsourced everything.

Next, he just needs to wait for the start of school with peace of mind.

Tony, who watched as he watched his thoughts, gradually drifted out of their sight, and Char looked at Alicia.

"Go back?"

"Let's go." Alicia said.

Char took Alicia's hand, this place is inside the fairy country, so it is not far from the peninsula, he directly used the shapeshifter to leave here and return to the castle.

"You're finally back."

Seeing Char and Alicia return, Cassifer in the hearth complained with the light of the fire.

"There is no one at home these days, and I am almost lonely."

They have been busy with the castle for the past few days, and occasionally they stay in the castle room to experience the accommodation, so they don't come back to sleep much.

"You can come to us at Hogwarts." Alicia said, "Aren't you free now?" ”

"You don't want to know where we are now." Cassifer said helplessly.

"In the wilderness, what if I leave, what if a wolf comes in, and there is no supply of magic power, the temperature is so low, the small trees and flowers in the yard will freeze to death in a few clicks."

Alicia suddenly realized that they were still in Northern Europe, and it was indeed cold, and she smiled, "Fortunately, Casifer." ”

Cassifer snorted twice.

Alicia stepped forward to add him some sticks of firewood, then turned to look at Char, who was sitting at his workbench looking at a newspaper by the light of a gas lamp, with a lot of newspapers piled up on one side of the table.

There are from Britannia, but also from West France and Germany.

The tavern is connected to many places, so you can buy newspapers from these places.

Char doesn't need to order these things if she has clairvoyance, but Alicia needs to see the news everywhere, so she subscribes to a batch of newspapers everywhere she goes.

"Those were sent in the past few days." Cassifer said.

Alicia stepped forward and opened a German newspaper, which mainly talked about the situation on the Eastern Front.

On the Eastern Front, the allied forces of Germany, mainly Germany, and several other countries in Eastern Europe fought against Beichen.

The emperor of Beichen seems to have died, and I don't know if he is caught in a power struggle or other problems, he is contained, and the battlefield is a little anxious.

Alicia didn't look at this newspaper for long, but looked at the newspapers from West France these days.

While the description of the Britannian army may not be objective, at least some information can be obtained.

In chronological order.

The first newspaper headlined: "The monsters of Britannia landed in the port of Ruan." ”

The headline of the second newspaper was: "The man-eating devil marches towards Glas"

The third: "Revolutionaries enter Grenoble"

Fourth: "Britannia occupies Lyon"

Fifth: "King Arthur approaches Fontainebleau"

The sixth is: "Arthur the Great will arrive today in his faithful Paris"

Alicia picked up the sixth newspaper and read it carefully.

"The war against West Francis was won, right?" Char asked.

"The date is yesterday." "It says that Britannia's army stormed Paris and captured the French Emperor Ernst, who was preparing to abscond by water.

Ernst signed the abdication decree that night and announced the transition of West Francis from the monarchy to the republic.

Now the army is stationed there, awaiting the election of a new leadership in West Francand.

At the same time, the West Francois Republic will form an unbreakable alliance with Britannia. ”

"This is the completion of the revolution from the bottom up." Char muttered softly.

"Would Arthur choose to do that in Britannia?" Alicia asked.

Char's eyes shimmered.

"It's not a question of choosing or not choosing."
