Chapter 19: The Wealth of the Academy
The town of Bjorn was small, and Mira Lane wasn't hard to find, and soon Leo arrived at a three-story stone building that had clearly been erected. On it, there is also a long signboard that reads: The First Temporary Office of the Revington School of Magic and Wizardry.
"First...... Is there a second or third?" Leo shook his head, ready to knock on the door.
At this time, the heavy wooden door suddenly opened, but fortunately he reacted quickly and took a step backwards, otherwise he would probably face the danger of having his nose crooked.
Immediately afterward, a figure hurried out of the door and passed with Leoca.
Three seconds later, the man stopped, turned his head to look back, and let out a surprise cry, "Leo!"
"Teacher Lorinda, what a coincidence. Leo smiled, completely unexpectedly meeting each other here.
"Qiao?" The joy on Lorinda's face quickly faded away, replaced by a sneer, "You still know to come back, we all thought you died somewhere." ”
"Sorry......" Leo could only smile wryly, but he couldn't explain much about his own affairs.
Soon, he noticed the different meanings in the other party's words, and said in surprise: "Teacher, you won't be waiting for me here all the time, will you?"
"Do you think you're the headmaster?" Lorinda glared at Leo angrily, "It's because we received a notification from the guards that we knew you had returned, and we used the academy portal to get here." ”
Hearing Lolinda say this, Leo said strangely: "Isn't the academy portal not easy to use?"
He clearly remembered that when the dark elves invaded, the academy did not open the portal.
But you can't blame the academy for this, because the maintenance of the teleporters is already very expensive, except for the Magi's Council, which can specialize in maintenance. And with the financial support of the entire empire, it is impossible for any academy's own portal to operate stably for a long time.
What's more, if it is used multiple times, the portal is likely to be paralyzed or distorted in space, and it will be very tragic if there are important people and things that need to be used at that time.
"Less nonsense. Come with me. Lorinda had no intention of explaining, so she took Leo's arm and walked inside.
"It can't be anything bad, could it be Geralson?" Leo involuntarily began to think about it.
In the room, several of Riveton's foreign personnel were a little surprised to see Lorinda go and return so quickly, and when they noticed Leo behind them, they all showed understanding, and greeted Leo with a smile.
After the previous tournament, Leo knew. Having broken several records, he is definitely famous. But that's just among the students, among the faculty, and it shouldn't be to that extent.
"What the hell is going on?" more and more doubts made Leo's heart go up and down.
Soon, the two arrived in a room on the third floor.
"Sit down, the portal will open in an hour, and then we'll be able to go back. After Larinda finished speaking, she glanced at the Valkyrie. He asked, "Where did you get the magic puppet, it looks pretty good?" Not. It's all precious materials, it's really luxurious. ”
"It was given to me by my initiation teacher. Leo said nonsense, and then he took advantage of the other party's failure to speak, and hurriedly asked, "Teacher Laurinda, why did you come here to pick me up?
Instead of answering Leo's question, Larinda arranged for the servant to prepare the black tea. After a while, he said, "Tell me first, where did you go and why did you come back now?"
"I ......," Leo was speechless. It was only then that he realized that he had only been thinking about how to return to the academy, but he had forgotten to study it. How to explain it when you go back.
Larinda and the other servants poured black tea for the two of them and exited the room, then said, "I heard from Lorsas that after you left the Holy Urion Kingdom, you went to the Orgoma tribe of the orcs?"
"Yes. Leo didn't know what to do but answer truthfully.
"And then?" said Laurinda, looking at Leo with interest, "and left the place where birds don't, where did you go? along the Dragon's Shores, the Supreme Forest, or did you sail to Eternal Island?"
In the face of Lolinda's inquiry, Leo sighed heavily and said, "Teacher, I'm sorry, this is my personal matter, and I don't think it's necessary to tell you." ”
"That's right. Lorinda didn't care about Leo's attitude, but her expression was a little excited: "But I want you to understand that you don't just belong to yourself, you are also a valuable asset of the Academy!"
"The wealth of the Academy?" was a description that made Leo feel a little baffled.
"Yes!" Lorinda narrowed her eyes slightly, "You don't know, we've already signed you up for the Lordaeron Youth Magic Competition!
"Lordaeron?" Leo didn't react for a moment, "Sign me up?"
"Yes, you're not going to tell me you don't want to go to Lordaeron, are you?" said Lorinda, holding her arms and condescendingly.
Leo suddenly remembered that there was such a thing, and hurriedly said: "Yes!
For a mage, especially a mage under the Lordaeron system, Lordaeron is definitely a holy place. It represents the highest achievement of magic, the latest trend, and the most authoritative place.
Sensing Leo's anticipation, Lorinda snorted and said, "Then you kid came back so late." ”
Leo smiled awkwardly, embarrassed to say that he had forgotten about it, but said, "When does the tournament start?"
"Less than three months. Without delving into where Leo had gone, Lorinda continued: "In other words, you only have a little over two months to get up to speed on all aspects of the tournament. I hope you're well prepared, these two months have definitely been tougher than you think. ”
Leo couldn't understand what the other party meant, and asked, "Are you going to give me special training?"
Lorinda nodded and replied, "Yes, special training! Very harsh special training, your teacher, Professor Geralson, has already made a detailed special training plan for you. Our previous plan was to spend half a year to complete the special training, but due to your personal reasons, the time had to be cut by two-thirds!"
"Good...... Okay......" Leo replied with some apprehension. (To be continued......)
