Throne of Magical Arcana

Please recommend tickets and monthly tickets, there were relatively few yesterday, and my heart was a little hit.

………………………………………………………………………

The layout of the third floor is quite different from that of the second floor. The first thing that catches Lucien's eyes is a blue and white living room. There are rows of wide windows on both sides. The sun shines in, making the place extremely bright.

Although this living room is much smaller than the hall on the first floor, sofas stacked randomly, round tables the size of tea tables, small black writing boards hung on the wall or behind high chairs, pots of green The plants give people a strange sense of prosperity in the messy and scattered.

There are more than a dozen young boys and girls in the living room, the oldest may be fourteen or five years old, and the youngest is only about twelve years old. They are either sitting on the sofa, concentrating on counting at the round table in front of them, or three or four years old. Everyone gathered in front of the small blackboard and discussed seriously, making Lucien almost think that he had broken into some kind of study salon, study club or other places.

Perhaps it was because the people who designed the third floor considered that the people coming up the stairs would not directly disturb the atmosphere, so this living room was facing the other side, so that Lucien and Tom could only see the backs or sides of those teenagers, plus The thick carpet muffled the sound of footsteps and did not disturb them.

"Annick, this "Mathematical Principles of Magic Philosophy" is very interesting. The three basic laws of force field magic in it seem simple, but when you think about it carefully, it summarizes the laws when we use force field magic, and it seems that we can It has spread to some phenomena in daily life." The girl's voice was as clear as birdsong, and she whispered to her companion on the sofa next to her.

They were sitting with their backs facing each other on the semi-circle sofa not far in front of Lucien and Tom. The fluffy-haired boy raised his head and said, "Leilia, I heard Mr. Astal say that , The content contained in this "Mathematical Principles of Magic Philosophy" is one of the two pillars of the modern magic system, if you can understand it thoroughly, you may be able to become a formal magician!"

Another girl with long flaxen hair next to him said, "Leilia, Annick, are you still only watching the first part? I looked through it a few days ago and found that the third part is beyond imagination. It tries to use the concept of 'force' to explain the movement and phenomena of the whole world, including stars, tides, etc., and names the force between the stars and the earth as gravity, thus deriving the trajectory of the stars, etc. We will learn astrology magic in the future It seems to be able to refer to when?"

Leilia's black hair was tied into a jumping ponytail, and she moved as she nodded: "Enen, it seems so, but why can't I understand the derivation process, and those mathematical methods called calculus, I can't understand it at all." I don’t understand how to calculate, Heidi, Annick, what about you?”

"Me too, I read it like a fairy tale, and I can't understand it at all." Heidi, who had long flaxen hair and her voice seemed to be turning upwards, replied indifferently, "But Mr. Astal Didn’t we say it in "Mathematical Principles of Magic Philosophy"? Before becoming an official magician, you only need to memorize a few theorems and formulas, and there is no need to fully understand and figure it out. What we need to study now is "Magic Geometry" Basics of Science", "Magic Principles Mapping to Model Construction Process", "Significance of Constructing Graphics", "Elemental Equations Behind Magical Formulas", "Elementary Elements", "Common Algebra Problems", "Classification of Low-order Meditation Methods", "Cold and Hot" Essence Analysis", "The Function of Motion and Force in Magic", etc."

She seemed to be showing off her memory a bit, and she had completely memorized a bunch of books that needed to be learned.

"Heidi, I also remembered it. Mr. Astaire did say that if you can fully understand "Mathematical Principles of Magic Philosophy", you should study calculus systematically for another year, and wait until you have enough mental strength. You are qualified to try to become an intermediate magician." Leiya echoed Heidi, "But you have memorized so many basic magic books, we don't know when we will be able to finish them. Without the teacher's guidance, I'm afraid It will take more than fifteen years, but now I feel very dizzy after reading a few pages a day. Hey, I don’t know when I will be able to become a formal magician.”

Apprentices who don't want to become official magicians are not good apprentices, and those who can pass the assessment certainly have their own ambitions.

Annick scratched his light yellow hair: "I don't know how long it will take if I rely on self-study, but didn't Mr. Astal say that when we arrive in Allinge, the council will arrange for an official magician to teach us?" ? Then maybe you can finish it in four or five years, and you have enough ability to hit the rank of a magician, and then..."

"At that time, we will be members of the municipal council, and we will be men or women with servants." Heidi's tone was full of hope.

Leilia is also very yearning: "And the council also promised that when we become official magicians, we will send our parents and relatives to countries such as Holm or Camelot."

The three of them were silent for a while, then sighed in unison: "Official magicians..."

Tom, who stood quietly at the stairs behind their sofa and listened, showed a rare smile on his thin and gloomy face: "The three of them, together with Splinter, Olmos, and Katrina, are all here this time. During the assessment, the youngsters who had already become trainee magic apprentices, among them, Splinter and Katrina had both spiritual talent and arcane talent."

As he spoke, he pointed to the dark red-haired boy Splinter who was instructing others in front of the blackboard, the brown-haired boy Olmos who quietly wrote and calculated, and the tall blond girl Katrina who was discussing issues with the three girls.

"They're all good kids." Lucien replied in the tone of a formal magician.

The conversation between the two alarmed the apprentices who were studying and discussing in the living room. They either turned their heads or stood up and looked over, and then politely saluted: "Hello, Mr. Tom."

This Mr. Tom is a strong knight, so he naturally deserves their respect.

When Tom faced these energetic and slightly innocent children, he was not as gloomy as usual. He smiled and said: "I want to praise you for your hard work from the bottom of my heart. But "Mathematical Principles of Magic Philosophy" is our speaker, the greatest His Excellency Douglas, the Arcanist, is the first work to systematically expound his own arcane theory. It contains calculus, the most mainstream mathematical tool he invented, so it is not something you can understand and master now. Don't study this magic book blindly and arrogantly. The bright pearl in history has delayed the normal arcane and magic learning."

Although he is a second-level knight, he grew up in Allinge and has no lack of common sense about magic.

"Thank you, Mr. Tom, for your teaching." Splinter, who was about fifteen years old and with a layer of fluff on his lips, stood up and replied. The handsome and slightly unruly man seemed to be the leader of these dozen or so magic apprentices, proud of himself. Authentic, "I have never lost any time, I have already become an official magic apprentice yesterday."

A gasp came from the mouths of other magic apprentices, Splinter was able to become an official magic apprentice so quickly!

Tom was quite surprised and said: "What a genius. And Sprint, you are very enthusiastic. I saw that you have been guiding several of them in arcane arts."

"Of course, we are all companions." After being praised, Splinter replied happily like a child, and then he saw Lucien next to Tom, and asked kindly, "Mr. Tom, is this the newcomer?" Is he a companion? He looks a little old, I don’t know if he is a formal magic apprentice or a high-level magic apprentice? Hehe, do you know anything about arcane art? If you don’t understand, you can ask me.” Later he said to Lucien said.

Katrina also stood up, wearing a long white dress, she was bright and beautiful, her green eyes were radiant, and she was mature and tall at the age of fourteen, comparing Lailia and Heidi, two beautiful girls of the same age who looked like washboards, Like a child: "I can also guide you on arcane issues, and I can become an official magic apprentice in a few days!"

In her heart, it seemed that the young Lucien in his twenties was at best a high-level magic apprentice, and he probably had no experience with arcane arts.

The other magic apprentices did not make a sound, quietly watching the two most outstanding companions continue their competition for a while.

Tom pointed at Lucien amusedly and said, "This is Mr. Evans, an official magician."

"Official magician?!"

"So young?!"

Different exclamations came from the mouths of these young boys and girls, although the description they read in the ancient magic records was "a young man with exceptional spiritual talent, who can become a full-fledged magician when his mind matures and his soul stabilizes at the age of eighteen." . But the status of an official magician is so high, it must be quite difficult to advance. It is really hard to imagine that there will be such a young magician. Maybe he used some kind of magic to maintain his appearance?

Tom shook his head and smiled: "When you get to the parliament, you will find that there are still formal magicians who are 14 or 15 years old, so it is very normal for Mr. Evans to be able to advance before the age of 20, and in my opinion, he is better than most magicians." Official magicians are smart."

"Hello, Mr. Evans." All the magic apprentices withdrew their surprise thoughtfully, put their right hands on their foreheads, and bowed deeply, more solemnly than Tom, because the one in front of them was a formal magician, whether it was ancient or present, For their apprentices, this is an existence that requires awe and obedience.

Lucien smiled and nodded: "We will be companions from now on."

Tom whispered in Lucien's ear, "Do you need to learn arcane arts with them?"

"I want to read the books they mentioned, and discuss it with them." Lucien replied softly without the slightest bit of shame. Nothing can compare to the acquisition of knowledge, and his foundation in arcane arts is probably higher than many. Magicians below rank are good.

Tom said with a smile: "Then you should complete half of the council's small requirements ahead of schedule. And these books are only for apprentices. Official magicians need to go to the association to get them. Now they can only learn by communicating with them."

"What request?" Lucien asked suspiciously.

Tom explained: "It is the requirement of guiding magic apprentices. If you want to get the book gift from the association and assist in transformation, you must complete the task of guiding magic apprentices. You will be considered successful when someone becomes a high-level magic apprentice. Some people will become high-level apprentices, but there are still a few who are still hopeful to advance from apprenticeships, so it is half done. When they arrive in Allinger, they will enter the hidden magic schools in each county to study, and will not pester you."

"Okay." Lucien appreciates the council's emphasis on the training of magic apprentices, which is a must-have factor for an organization that can develop normally.

The magic apprentices watched the two gentlemen whispering, waiting in confusion but not daring to discuss, and then saw Tom clapping his hands: "Boys and girls, you have a chance. Since Mr. Evans needs to learn the arcane , so I want to find a few apprentices to study with him. It is a lucky thing to be guided by an official magician!"

Some of the apprentices discussed in low voices with excited expressions. If they can take this opportunity to become a real apprentice of a magician, their status after reaching the council will definitely be greatly improved. Some of them looked at Lucien with a slight frown. Mr. Magician doesn’t seem to understand arcane art. There is nothing to guide him in this area. Some people are worried that calling him a teacher will affect the possibility of becoming an official disciple of other powerful magicians in the future. After all, every magician in the ancient magic empire accepts real apprentices They are all extremely strict, and have been directly excluded by teachers before.

"Who would?" Tom interrupted their discussion.

Splinter was the first to stand up, and said with a little pride: "If it is about arcane arts, I don't think I need Mr. Evans' guidance." Perhaps after Mr. Evans has made up the foundation of arcane arts, he will become an official magician. teacher. Since some people can succeed at the age of fourteen or fifteen, why can't I?

"Sorry, Mr. Evans, me too, I don't want to disrupt my arcane study arrangement." Katrina answered with her head lowered, her long blond hair fluttering slightly.

The answers of the two seemed to represent an attitude, and the six or seven apprentices who had a good relationship with them hesitated and did not nod.
