After coming out of Regina, Solomon returned to the Academy of Magic, but not to attend lectures, or to borrow books or play chess.
Instead, he went to a place he hadn't been before, a low building in the academy, not a towering magic tower.
Because it's not a place that has anything to do with magic, it's a place that has something to do with life.
That's what Max said was the usual activity of the drama club, one of the two major entertainments in the academy.
Last time, Solomon promised Agatha to go to the drama club, but he didn't have time to go after that, so he didn't make the trip.
When Agatha brought it up again the other day when she returned to her lodgings, Solomon counted the time and set it after attending Regina's salon.
When he approached the low house, Agatha was already waiting outside.
"You're here, and if you miss the appointment again this time, I'll lose face in front of Luna-senpai. Agatha grumbled, then put her hand around his arm and pulled him as she walked inside.
Solomon was pulled by her like this, and there was a slight strange feeling in his heart, but he couldn't tell what it was.
Before he had time to think about it, he was pulled into the house.
When I entered the house, I realized that there was a simple theater inside, and the houses were connected together, and then a small stage was arranged in the middle, and seats were arranged around it for viewing.
Of course, this simple stage is not comparable to the professional level, so small that it can barely accommodate the actors to perform on it, and it is impossible to place more sets, let alone as extravagant as a mirror-framed stage.
This is actually not surprising, after all, although the drama club is one of the two major entertainments of the magic academy, it is far from being compared to the elf magic chess.
The Elven Chess is entertaining and educational in terms of efficacy, or it is known as paying equal attention to exercise and entertainment, and it has the official hosting of the Academy of Magic.
The drama club is just a gathering purely because of the interest of the students, and it is not without the high-level mages who are teachers who like drama, but their time is not as thick as that of the students to gather into a club.
The wealth and ability of the students are limited, and it is not without them that they are really born into high-ranking families, such as the Bourbon family's Clausa, although Henley has no inheritance, it does not mean that he does not have a certain foundation, just look at him to appear in the salon invited by Reginer, you know that he still has a little reputation among the young nobles.
But these people either have no interest in drama or, like teachers, are unlikely to spend a lot of time on it.
Students who are interested in drama will not have such strong connections and influence, although they will not be too short of money to enter the academy, but this is the academy of magic, and every piece of land in it is not available casually.
It is already their ultimate for the drama club to have such an old building and transform it into a simple theater.
When Solomon entered the house, there was an argument inside.
"Time will tell me right, the kind of thing like Shadow Animation is full of frivolity, how can it be a substitute for drama. A male magician shouted waving his hands.
"Really? Let's make a bet. "Opposite this male magician is a red woman, although she is wearing a wide mage robe, she still can't hide her slender figure, plus a curly crimson head hanging on her shoulders, she looks hot**.
"Bet on what?" the male magician sneered.
"I'm betting on the last week, I heard that the Hayden Theater will show a new Shadow animation, and this week the other two theaters will also stage a new play, when the drama club is responsible for counting the average number of people per show, whoever has the most wins. If I lose, I'll help you make an alchemy prop for free, and if you lose, George, you'll have to be my alchemy assistant for two months. ”
"That's my sister Luna, she's a fan of your Shadow Animation, and that George is a disciple of another high-level mage, and he and my sister run the Drama Club, but now they're on the opposite side because of your Shadow Animation. Agatha whispered, but there was a pride in her voice.
"Hey, Agatha, you're here. Ah, this one, this must be ......." Luna also noticed the two of them entering, and when she saw Solomon, she suddenly looked surprised as if she had suddenly remembered something.
"I am Solomon, and I am very glad to meet you, Agatha's senior sister and my senior sister, and I am also a student of the Academy of Magic. Solomon led Agatha to meet him, and it was only then that Agatha quietly let go of the hand that was hanging from his arm.
"I am very glad to see you, Agatha did not break my promise, she promised me that she would let me see you. Luna looked at Solomon, her eyes filled with curiosity and a slight hint of excitement.
"You're just in time, George, the stubborn donkey, and I'm talking about your shadow animation, see, and we've made a bet on it. Luna smiled and shrugged.
"I won't agree with your Shadow Animation shooting plan, you are wasting the resources of the drama club, you must know that the resources of the club are voluntarily contributed by each member. The male magician named George shouted.
"But, George, I want to make a Shadow animation, and I have been approved by many members, and it seems that your opposition alone is not enough, do you want us to have a vote?" Luna said coldly.
"No, I don't agree, I strongly disagree. Art should be able to move people's hearts, people think deeply, and even teach the society, see what things like Shadow Animation deduce, marginal fantasies, shameful **, and then packaged it with some gorgeous techniques. ”
There were also other members of the drama club around, although there were not too many people, but there were about twenty people, and almost all of them gathered at this time because of the quarrel between George and Luna.
Luna sneered and was about to refute, but suddenly looked at Solomon, raised her eyebrows and smiled: "I forgot, the main master is here, Solomon, you created the Shadow Animation, and now you happen to be here, I don't know what George's thoughts?"
"Solomon, may I ask, the namesake who has been famous in the academy elves recently......" One of the onlookers couldn't help but ask when they heard Solomon's name for the second time.
"Oh, that's me. After Solomon readily admitted it, the eyes of the onlookers immediately changed, and the gazes looking at him became complicated.
In the past, the main activity of the drama club was the rehearsal of business outside of magic, but after the Shadow Animation was transmitted to the city of San Quentin and the Academy of Magic, it aroused the interest of more and more members.
The ability to combine magic with performing arts has made many members admire.
But they didn't know much about Solomon's company, and they thought it was a collaboration between a merchant and a magician.
It wasn't until Agatha entered the school, and in the mouths of Agatha and Luna, that the members of the club knew a little more about it, and heard that Solomon, a trading company, was named after one of the masters, and Solomon was also a magician and had come to the magic academy.
Just now someone linked him with Solomon, who has been in the limelight recently in the elven magic chess, and after being recognized, everyone was even more amazed, you must know that the influence of the elf magic chess in the academy is much greater than that of the drama club, the latter is only an entertainment and leisure business project, while the former has official support in the academy, and most magicians will participate, including the vast majority of the members of this drama club.
Even Luna was surprised, although as an intermediate mage, she had long since stopped mixing in the Little Arcana District, but she had recently heard that there was a very talented chess player in the Little Arcana District.
It's just that her elven magic chess is only based on the nature of training, and she doesn't care too much about the victory or defeat like most magicians, and the battle in the Grand Arcana area is relatively fixed, because the difference in strength between the chess players is not as small as that in the small Arcana area, and the gap in strength often produces an insurmountable position in the Great Anaka area.
So she only heard about Solomon, and in addition to magic, she also paid attention to the drama club, so she didn't care too much, and then she knew that the Solomon in front of her was the one who also shined in the elf magic chess.
Of course, there were George's supporters among the onlookers, and while Luna was ready to let Solomon speak for himself, others were already ready to refute Solomon before he could speak, in order to discourage Solomon and slash the arrogance of the Shadow Animation supporters.
But when the questioner just confirmed that Solomon was the Solomon who was now in the Little Arcana district of the Elven Chess, in shock, George's supporters couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and the shock made them forget their original intentions.
And Solomon went on without being disturbed.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I know that you still have some doubts about Shadow Animation. But I don't think magic should just be used for war. Solomon said aloud, "It should also be used in every field outside of war, we study magic in the academy, so what is the essence of magic? It is a kind of power, but is it only used to defeat the enemy, or can it only be used to destroy?"
"Of course not, there is also auxiliary magic in magic, and the products of alchemy also use magic. Someone replied.
"So, the Shadow animation is nothing but one of the extensions of magic, and it's just a new alchemical product, and I think that the essence of magic, whatever it is, ultimately serves us, it is a force that can defend our interests, but it can also be used to serve our lives. ”
Someone applauded for the first time, and then the applause rang out one after another.
Most of the members around couldn't help but applaud Solomon's words just now, and the few who didn't applaud were George's supporters, but it was impossible for them to openly jump out against these words.
