Arcane Age

At the end of March 1787 in the Holy Calendar, the Port of Toulon was very prosperous. The Sea Wolf Gang and the Red-haired Queen pirates that had been wreaking havoc on the sea in recent times have all disappeared, and the trade routes on the Western Golden Sea have become increasingly prosperous.

As the second largest port in the southern part of the Kingdom of France, the Port of Toulon has naturally benefited from this wave of dividends. There are ships of all sizes docked at every pier in the port, and many merchant ships come in and out every day.

There is a small area of ​​​​sea at the far right end of the Port of Toulon. The draft here is quite deep and it is a natural harbor. However, it is a dedicated dock for many large chambers of commerce, so it is quite quiet.

At this moment, there was a large ship docked quietly at the dedicated dock of the Bonaparte Chamber of Commerce.

Compared with other merchant ships, this ship has a completely different style. The entire hull is coated with a lavender coating and is relatively flatter, allowing more passengers to ride comfortably.

There was a beautiful violet flag on the mast, and the entire ship was spotless, without any odor or foreign matter.

This is obviously a new ship that belongs to the Violet Academy. Xi Wei also modified the ship specifically to pick up the apprentices who came to study on Violet Island from the Orient continent. The ship was named the Violet.

"The Violet! This is the ship we are going to take!" Theresa and the girl Tracy, who had been traveling south from the royal capital of Paali after a long journey, their eyes lit up. According to the description in the guide, as long as they board this ship By boat, you can complete the last leg of your journey and reach the dreamy Violet Academy!

On the dock of the Violet, there is a large parasol and two tables. All apprentices who want to board the ship must complete a basic inspection.

"As long as you can successfully cast any of the five standard zero-level spells in the book "Teaching You to Become a Magic Apprentice in One Month", you can board the ship for free!" The Violet Academy staff member responsible for registration is young Guis. He is now a high-level magic apprentice and has twenty standard magic powers.

In order to obtain more arcane points to exchange for magic refining potions and complete the magician promotion ceremony, he appeared here with the Violet to help complete the enrollment work.

"Just one is enough?" Therese scratched his head, but he always thought that he must master all five standard zero-level spells to be considered excellent!

Therese cast a freezing ray in front of Geth, and Trish also successfully cast the light spell she had newly learned under Therese's guidance during this journey.

"Very good! Register your relevant personal information here, and you can board the ship! I am your senior, Gass. Congratulations on becoming a member of Violet Academy!" Gass handed over the paper and pen.

After the registration of the two was completed, Gass gave Treize two more tickets: "The Violet now has nearly fifty new students. According to the current speed, it should be full and set sail in three days! You guys! You can live on the ship now, or you can find a place to stay first and come back when the ship sails!"

"Thank you for your advice, Senior Guis!" Therese took Trish aboard the Violet. The cabin did not smell fishy like most sea ships, but had a faint plant fragrance.

It was a quiet morning. There were many apprentices on the deck standing in groups of twos and threes, admiring the beautiful scenery in the bay and chatting happily.

Although everyone has different backgrounds, standing on this boat at this moment is a lucky person with sufficient qualifications, so everyone is in a good mood, knows each other, and communicates with each other.

The most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly a beautiful girl. She is wearing a long blue dress, and there are two pretty and lovely maids accompanying her. She also looks very cute, and many boys are there. They secretly watched her, but few people dared to come up and talk to her.

"Isn't the Violet only allowing magic apprentices to board the ship? Why can she bring two maids?" Tracey noticed that Therese's eyes were completely attracted to this noble lady, and whispered with some dissatisfaction.

"Because they are also magic apprentices who can cast magic!" The noble lady was dozens of feet away, but she easily heard Trish's words. She walked over with a smile, faced Therese and asked curiously: "I seem to have met you before?"

"Hello! Dear Miss Alfonso! I am Therese Vincent, the vassal of your father, Count Alfonso, and the eldest son of Viscount Vincent. At the ball held by the Count three years ago, I was with You've met me!" I didn't expect to meet Count Alfonso's daughter on the Violet!

Unlike Viscount Vincent, who only has a small rural town as a fiefdom, the southern part of the Auvergne region of the Kingdom of France is almost all the fiefdom of Count Alfonso. The ancestors of the Vincent family were only knights who fought with the Alfonso family at first. Later, because of It was only because of his military merit that he was granted the title of Count Alfonso.

"Therese Vincent? I remembered, didn't your father send you to the Royal Paali Knight Academy?" Countess Alfonso smiled.

"I'm sorry, I don't have any talent in the way of knights!" Therese shrugged, and took out the popular magic reading book he carried with him: "It was the three books of Lord Seavey Frost that made me embark on this journey. Take the path of a magician!"

"Just call me Marnie!" Countess Alfonso also took out the book: "I didn't expect to meet an old friend here! I bought five sets for all the maids of the right age in the castle to start reading. Studying, it’s a pity that only two people have enough talent, and in the end they were the only ones who accompanied me to study at Violet Academy!”

"Your Excellency, Count, are you studying so far away from home?" Therese smiled slightly: "I haven't had time to tell my father. I'm worried that he will be furious if he knows that I dropped out of Legrand Knight Academy!"

"Principal Sylvie Frost is a very knowledgeable and powerful magician. This is what my father said. He suggested that I should not continue to study at home. Coming to Violet Academy is a good choice. In fact, I have He is an official magician." Marnie smiled reservedly, with a proud look on her face.

"You are so awesome!" Therese quickly complimented.

Behind him, the girl Trish has wanted to reach out and pinch the soft flesh on his waist several times, but she has never been cruel enough.

In fact, Therese, who was chatting cordially with Marnie, had become the focus of everyone's attention on the deck.

Tracy put the package on her back on the ground with a thud, as if she couldn't carry it.

"You haven't settled down yet, have you? I won't interrupt you for now. Let's talk later!" Marnie glanced at the girl behind Therese from the corner of her eye, raised the corner of her mouth, waved her hand, and left gracefully. .
