"You are Loren Turin, the new apprentice said by Dalton?"
The young man standing in front of Loren asked with a very decisive tone, and extended his right hand with his own right expression: "Isaac Grantham, according to the instructions of Dalton, let me take you Where you should go. "
"Thank you so much, Isaac Grantham." Loren reached out with a smile, but the other person withdrew his hand.
"Don't be so fast, according to conventional social etiquette, we should shake hands after we have finished speaking." The young man said with his head turned sideways: "And this is the first time we met, you should call me Grantham, or Mr. Grantham. "
"Uh ... well, Grantham ..."
"But considering that we will be an apprentice to a tutor in the future, and will be together for several years, so you can call me Isaac now-but I come before you, so you can also add the title of" student " ,if you are willing to."
"Well, Isaac learns ..." Before Loren finished, the young man grabbed his right hand and gave it a firm grip.
"Very good, socializing." The young man walked up the stairs without looking back: "Wasting time is a waste of life, life is short, so let's hurry up and do it, hurry up and don't fall behind Now, Loren student! "
Even self-confessed Loren couldn't help but rolled his eyes, shrugged his shoulders, and quickly followed behind the young wizard, followed the stairs of the tower, and stepped forward.
"You may already know something about this college, but let me introduce it to you-Wimpar College consists of four towers, a main fort, and two courtyards. The north tower we belong to belongs to Doyle Tutor Kant, the second and third floors are his bedroom and study, our dormitory is on the fourth floor, and the fifth floor is the laboratory and library. "
"The front courtyard of the college is an activity and rest area, and the back court garden is a plantation, used to cultivate a small amount of rare plants; the college's library, kitchen, and auditorium are in the main fort, but most of the time it is not used there.
"In addition, if you are a devout believer, the prayer room is also there. And I can guarantee that it is quiet because most wizards are not very religious."
"Most of the time we only need to stay in this tower to complete most of the practice-herbalism, alchemy, ancient runes, occultism, curse science, astrology, history ..."
A few short stairs, this young wizard named Isaac is like a living dictionary, and it is endless from beginning to end, so that Loren walking behind keeps up the stairs from beginning to end. Smile awkwardly.
"Very good, this is your dormitory." Isaac pushed open the door of the room while talking, "There is an apprentice's robe on the bed that can be changed and washed, and the sheets are a bit old but can be used. What's the problem? ?"
"... Uh, there is only one." Seeing the other party finally stopped, Loren twitched his lips: "How many apprentices does Instructor Dalton have?"
"Three, this still counts for you-the mentor Dalton's criteria for selecting apprentices are extremely strict. Those ordinary folks, at most, working as a pharmacist or a fortune-telling scammer, there is no play." Isaac proudly picked the apprentice Chin: "So since we talked about this, can we ask you which subject you are going to take?"
"As a person coming over, I recommend you to practice occultism. This is an advanced discipline that involves the formation of the relationship between the void and the physical world. It requires a very good talent and understanding ability to abandon common sense. Some people with insufficient talents To learn alchemy and accept the tragic fate of being an alchemist. "
"Isaac Grantham, what do you say ?!"
Lorren's lips turned, and his eyes turned to the place where the angry roar came--although he hadn't seen anyone yet, he already guessed who was coming.
"Don't care about this guy, Loren." The exhaled Ain's cheeks flushed, gasping for breath, holding his shoulders with both hands: "He's a lunatic!"
"Ein Rand, the mentor Dalton specially reminded that no loud noise is allowed in the tower." Looking at the little wizard who came from the stairs, Isaac said, "And ... why do you scold me?"
"Oh, is it?" Ain smiled angrily: "Who just said what a tragic fate is it to become an alchemist ?!"
"But that's only because your qualifications and intelligence are not enough, so that you have to choose to become an alchemist." The young wizard said innocently: "I didn't say you are stupid!"
The little wizard simply pointed his right finger at the stairs: "Go!"
"If you say 'goodbye', it will look polite to you!" Before I finished, Isaac had already rushed to the next level, avoiding the "suspicious objects" flying over his head.
"Smashing pretty!" Looking at the parabola flying in front of him, Loren laughed a little ridiculously: "I don't know yet, you have such a hand."
Ain's face was stained with a red shame, and it seemed like he regretted the look just now: "I, I usually don't like this, it's all because of this Isaac ... it's too much Annoying! "
"Is he always like this?"
"Yes, this guy is a madman, arrogant, likes to show off, and narcissistic to the point where there is no way to add!" The little wizard agreed with a nodded hard: "But he is indeed a genius, although it is particularly ridiculous!"
It doesn't seem to be easy to get along with, Loren could not help but say in the bottom of his heart. In his previous life, he had also been in contact with creatures like Xueba. Most of them were immersed in their own world and could not extricate themselves. They took their talents and understanding for granted, but it was really the first to be so wonderful.
Just as Loren was preparing to make a joke, he found that the embarrassed expression on Ain ’s face had n’t faded, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated:
What ’s wrong, is there anything inconvenient to say? ? "
"Mr Dalton, he ..." The little wizard just started, but stopped immediately, hesitating for a moment: "I didn't expect him to do such a thing!"
Invited Loren to come to Wimpar College for the purpose of letting this wandering knight not to live an unpredictable life, and no longer to worry about his life being threatened. But now Dalton mentors actually use this condition in exchange, so what is the difference between Loren and the past? !
No ... Maybe it will be more dangerous. UU reading www.uukanshu.com wandering knight to deal with, most of them are robbers and bandits between mountains and forests. Now, Loren may have to face monsters he has never heard of, curses, and even places as dangerous as the pagan temple!
"This has nothing to do with Dalton Kander." Loren shook his head: "This is my choice, and I feel very fair, no problem."
"But ... this is too dangerous!" The small wizard was still uneasy: "You have only experienced it once, and it is not clear how terrible things you have to face!"
With a long sigh, Loren walked into his room and looked out into the wilderness through the window: "Do you know what is the most terrifying? The answer is very simple, and nothing is the most terrifying! "
I am too new to this world, even if I have survived for nearly three years, when I first faced with Asriel in that cellar, that kind of horror is really like an ice cave!
This world, which looks just like the ancient Middle Ages of the previous life, contains too many, too many terrible things that can kill yourself easily.
Never easily expose his thoughts, rational thinking and analysis, choose the worst option ... This is Loren's consistent style of doing things, but it was the first time that day he realized that he was in front of those forces. There is no choice, not even to overcome the fear in the heart.
"So, this is my own decision. I must never live in the world without knowing anything. Even if it costs money and will die, I have to figure out why."
Lorren walked to his bed, picked up a copy of "Walk Into Meditation" on his wizard's robe, and handed it to the little wizard.
"Can you teach me?"
