Vol 4 Chapter 7: Royal Wizard College (Part 1)

"Here's ... The Royal Wizarding Academy of Golovin? It doesn't feel as big as expected. It's far worse than the Nine Stars Wizarding Tower, at most it is of the same level as the big workshop in the furnace town."
In front of the magnificent vaulted door and two marble columns, Isaac Grantham scorned his eyes and looked at the Wizarding College in front of him with a disappointed expression:
"We saw the Royal Palace, the Royal Pavilion, the Royal Arena, and the Royal Theater on the way together. Compared with the huge, ugly and useless buildings, the word" Royal "in this college is actually reflected in where--!"
The heartbreaking screaming Isaac hadn't finished speaking, but was pushed away by the little wizard who had stomped his foot, his stiff face barely squeezed out a smile and looked at the man named Gray · Thrall ’s middle-aged wizard bit his lips embarrassedly:
"I'm really sorry, I have taught him many times when I came, but I didn't expect it to be ..."
"It doesn't matter, in fact ... this is the common view of many wizards who came to the Imperial Capital." Gray Saar, who smiled bitterly, waved his hands and sighed helplessly:
"As the holy place of the Holy Cross and the archbishop's home, the wizarding class of Golovin has always been suppressed by it ... Even with the financial and material assistance of the royal family, the status and many due powers are still not guaranteed, and often Because the charges of some wizards are deeply implicated. "
"I heard when I was in Ebden ... You are all wizards of Lotel, and I think it should be the same."
Seeing the helpless expression on the other side, the little wizard who remembered the face of Lothal's church nodded solemnly.
"Oh, look at what I'm doing; it's embarrassing to sweep your interest, and hope to forgive."
The middle-aged wizard who turned around and smiled again quickly waved enthusiastically to Loren and his party: "Please follow me to visit the academy, no matter where it is."
"Moreover, there are already two hundred apprentices waiting for you in the college hall!"
"You are so kind."
Thanks to each other, Ain, who grabbed Isaac's ear, walked to the front with a smile; Loren and the gray pupil who looked at each other also shrugged and followed.
Two days after Brandon de Salion entered the palace, Loren, who never got the news, agreed to Grey Saar's invitation and came to the Royal Wizards College.
The reason itself is very simple-among the various forces of Golovin who are full of eyeliners and spies, the other party is the first to take the initiative to contact with themselves and express their friendly intentions.
What's more, as the wizard of the Nine-Mounted Star Wizard Tower, I, Isaac and Ain all have good reasons for accepting the invitation-according to the regulations of the Saqran Empire, a wizard who will stay in a city for a long time , It should have been to the local wizard college.
Unite the weak forces, give them sufficient confidence, and make them believe that Brandon de Salion has the qualification to become the emperor of the Empire ... This is the original plan of Loren and Brandon.
The Royal Sorcerer Academy, which has long been oppressed by the Holy Cross Church and has been implicated in many guilds in Golovin ... is very in line with this standard, and this is one of the first forces that Loren thought of.
So no matter what the other party ’s purpose is, Loren ’s purpose of this trip is to be better with this college. Before Brandon officially pulls them in, let the two sides maintain a better relationship and lay the foundation for the future alliance ...
With a formal smile on the corner of his mouth, the dark-haired wizard with his hands on his back followed the introduction of the Gray Saar wizard and began to browse the famous academy known as "not inferior to the wizard tower".
But ... as Isaac commented, the entire Royal Academy of Wizarding Golovin is not very wide-through the vaulted gate, a red-brown castle constitutes almost all of the academy, and the center is one. The fountain courtyard constructed of white marble is surrounded by towers belonging to various academic branches.
Compared with the nine-star star wizard tower, which is a central giant tower, and the college composed of the surrounding palaces and castle high walls, this wizard college named "Royal" is indeed small and pitiful, but it is also about twice that of Wimpar College. Area.
Of course, considering that the wizards of the imperial capital are more than twenty times larger than Lotel, it seems that the entire academy is really small and pitiful ...
The melodious bell sounded, and many dressed in uniform black robes, holding thick bound books, three or two wizard apprentices shuttled between the narrow road and the tower castle;
By the fountain courtyard, you can even see a lot of apprentices in formal suits gathered around the lawn to discuss aloud; or curled up in the corner of the marble fountain alone, reading the sheepskin scroll in his hand ...
Uniform uniforms, heavy courses, fast-paced apprentices, orderly planning ... I do n’t know why, Loren suddenly felt that everything in front of him was particularly familiar, as if some memory in the heart was triggered.
"Unlike the Wizarding College elsewhere, this college attaches great importance to unified management and efficient operation." Gray Sal, who was at the forefront, talked eloquently:
"All apprentices must live collectively, and under the guidance of their tutors, they should collectively engage in the progress of research and various experiments. In order to cultivate this key collective spirit, there are strict requirements from dressing to daily words and deeds. There are very strict penalties. "
"Unity, practice, down-to-earth-the essence of the Sacran civilization nurtures us, and also makes us the premier wizarding college in the empire."
Speaking of which, the face of the middle-aged wizard can't help but show a bit of pride: "Maybe we don't have the thick historical accumulation of the nine-pointed star wizard tower, but the Royal Wizarding Academy of Golovin is known for being pragmatic-from 'shock' The introduction, redevelopment, and promotion of professional guilds of the land digger's forging hammer, until now the new forging machine of the Royal Mint, are all the fruits of the Academy! "
"It can be said ... The Royal Wizarding Academy of Golovin is within the imperial capital and has become synonymous with quality and research!"
"Today, from daily necessities and crafts to luxury goods, as well as the pharmaceutical industry, metallurgy industry, transportation industry ... Even the daily maintenance works of the Imperial City, the expansion of the Sky Dome and the construction of the Imperial City ’s water supply and sewage pipelines, various large-scale projects are everywhere. There is no shortage of our colleagues! "
"We have heard about this before we came here." The little wizard who was an alchemist also nodded with Yourong:
"The Royal Wizarding Academy of Golovin is the pride of alchemy!"
"Oh, wait, wait ..." Isaac, who was impatient, interrupted Ayn's words, and his expression was a little awkward: "How can I just talk about alchemy, I believe there must be some of this student The "more important" discipline exists ... right? "
Isaac, ignoring Ayin's white eyes, gestured desperately to the middle-aged wizard beside him.
"That's of course, in addition to alchemy, there are five other important subjects in this school!" Gray Sal nodded as he should:
"Pharmaceutics, herbalism, astrology, history, ancient runes ... These six disciplines form the foundation of this college, and are the top priorities that we can stand on in the capital of Golovin!"
The words fell, and the proud middle-aged wizard didn't notice that Isaac's expression was frozen:
"So ... what about occultism?"
"Mysticism? Haha ... This college has already given up this useless subject." With a chuckle, Gray Thrall waved his hand: "It is said that the Wizard Tower still values ​​occultism now ~ www.mtlnovel. com ~ But we are different in pragmatism ... it only requires the apprentices to have a basic understanding. "
"Seriously, what is the point of studying this course? It can neither produce any practical benefits nor help the construction of the empire. The college does not support idlers."
As the words fell, the middle-aged wizard who had not noticed still walked ahead and led the way; he noticed that the dark-haired wizard who was not very good turned around and glanced back.
Take a deep breath, and then made a long, deep breath. Isaac Grantham widened his eyes and looked at the little wizard who was equally embarrassed, and said:
"Ain, we seem to have made any agreement before, right?"
"Isaac, we were invited today, you can't ..."
"I'm sorry, I regret it!" Isaac gritted out his teeth:
"I'm going to tear up this bunch of potatoes with brains alive!"
