C217 It Was so Fragrant
C217 It Was so Fragrant
The mage seemed to be sincere in teaching her magic?
One or two years ago, the Westfield Kingdom Parliament, which was preparing for war, made a decision.
All ordinary children under the age of 14 would be tested for the Elemental Affinity. Once they found that they had the qualifications to become a Mage, they would be able to obtain a special enrollment quota for the National Magic Academy.
This sounded like a project that could provide ordinary people with more opportunities to become a mage. However, at that time, the Magic Academy in Westfalen had already begun military training. More magic apprentice were sent in, of course, more military mages came out.
But even so, to Estelle at that time, it was already a chance to change her fate.
At that time, she had just escaped from East Virginia, which was filled with poverty and chaos. She climbed over the high wall of Virginia, crossing more than half of the land of Westfalen, and finally stood under the city of Brandenburg.
The girl was full of anticipation as she waited for those decent people wearing black formal clothes to let her put her hands on those strange magic equipment. Then, she would judge the colors that appeared. The children who had passed the test would be divided into two groups. One group was very long. It was very obvious that they did not pass the test. The other group was very short. They had magical aptitude.
Estelle noticed when she was waiting, if the crystal ball was red, those people would immediately show expressions of disgust and impatience. Then they would immediately wave their hands and send the children who had just finished the test to the team that did not pass.
The slightly better result was yellow. If the yellow one appeared, although it would still be thrown to the side that did not pass, the person who made the judgment would at least hesitate for a moment.
A little better would be green. This time, the distributor would still hesitate. However, according to the depth of the color, most of the children who got the green result could jump into the team that symbolized passing.
The better was the blue color, the deeper the better. Estelle saw from afar that they had tested a young man with an extremely deep blue color. The usually expressionless and old-fashioned examiner actually rubbed his hands with a smile on his face that time. He patted his shoulder and led him into the team that had a chance to become a mage.
Only she had noticed such details. Other children in the queue could not help but play around. It was very difficult for them to quietly stand where they were and not move.
It was finally her turn. The girl took a deep breath and followed the instructions and placed her hand on the transparent crystal ball. Before she could react, her vision was filled with red light. The man hosting the test impatiently drove her away and called the next one over.
Elemental Affinity was not something mysterious. There was always something that existed, and there was nothing that could not be measured. There was also no equipment malfunction.
Even if there was, it had nothing to do with Estelle.
From then on, the world of mages no longer had anything to do with her.
Congress spent money to carry out this country's affinity test and finally invested a large amount of money. In the end, they discovered that there were ordinary people who were qualified enough to learn magic. However, it was far from the number that they had imagined. Some mages used the results of the failure of this mission to support their theory that the affinity of elements was hereditary and set off a protracted war in the world.
The pink-haired girl shook her head, shaking her thoughts away from the distant past.
The basket floating on the water contained oil that seemed to have been extracted from some plant, emitting an intoxicating fragrance. The large pool made of white stones seemed to be able to allow people to swim in it. The faintly visible pale golden formation array on the wall of the pool had the function of regulating the temperature of the water. The complicated crystal chandelier on the ceiling cut the light into pieces, and there were a few white flowers in the bottle.
It was simply to the extent that it could make people feel that life was too wonderful...
Estelle almost wanted to lie in this vat and not come out.
But in the end, she still used hot water to pat her face. She got up from the water and used a towel to dry herself. Then, she put on the clothes that were hung at the side.
The girl did not know how much the room in the hotel in the center of Brandenburg, which was emitting a golden aura of a tycoon, cost, but it was most likely a number that she had never seen in her life. This was the wealthy district. Estelle usually did not even have the chance to lie on the steps outside the door.
Her long hair became wet after being soaked in the water. She probably couldn't do anything for a while. She could only wipe it a little and wait for herself to dry.
She took a few deep breaths and finally mustered her courage to open the door.
The silver-haired girl sat by the side.
On the table, five or six bottles of colorful medicine were arranged in a row.
"What, what is this?"
The circle of pharmacist was even more xenophobic than magician, and Estelle's understanding of pharmacist was almost negligible - after all, the vast majority of civilians could not afford any medicine. So her first reaction was actually not "you evil pharmacist want to use me as an experiment" but "what is this thing..."
"... Mm, it's just in time. Then, drink this medicine. "
Riko blinked her eyes and softly answered her question.
"You can turn from an ordinary person without talent... into an unprecedented magic genius."
At the same time, in Brucedahl.
The losses caused by the invasion of Westfalen to the Royal School of Magic Theory had yet to be fully repaired. The school was still using the airship to transport the tons of books that they had brought back to the library.
Therefore, Riko Hasegawa's direct disciples could only borrow Elsa's Mage Tower for the time being.
"Hey, hey, hey, did I come at the right time? Then, can you give me a bottle of the medicine?"
Lorin had a fearless expression. She did not even greet him and just minded her own business as she pushed open the door of the medicine lab. Furthermore, at the same moment, an explosion occurred on the experiment table in front of Dorothy. Fragments of the glass instrument flew in all directions.
"Don't come in while I'm doing the experiment! Don't come in when I'm doing the experiment!"
Ever since Lorin was promoted to the second grade and started her experimental class, she had been discovered to have a special talent. Wherever she appeared now, the instrument would malfunction...
The pharmaceuticals professor in School of Magic Theory had even issued a ban on her. From then on, every time she attended the pharmaceuticals class, the blue-haired girl could only stand outside the classroom in a daze...
Today, she did not pay any attention to Dorothy. With an excited face, she stretched out her hand and waved a document.
"Ms Rikku agreed to go and do the level certification!"
"... " Oh? So?"
..." So, pack up. We're going to Rome to throw coins at the pond with the Elven Emperor statue!"
Request for leave!
The recent chapters had been a little difficult to write. He had clearly thought of what to say about this scroll, but he did not know how to lure it over.
The last volume was planned too long, so when he wrote it, he only thought about how to end it. After he finished writing, he didn't know how to answer it.
Today, he would stop for one more day... He would sort out the outline of this volume...
