My Magic Age

Some people who are used to living in Ayr City may not know what is special about Ayr City.

They wake up every day to the sound of the bells ringing in the clock tower, and only remember that it is time for dinner when the sun sets. The whole city is filled with thick snow like cotton wool. On the stone slabs under their feet, in the garden, on the roof, every corner can see the thick snow. The old snow has not completely melted, and new snow will fall again.

Day after day, year after year, the Ayr City in my eyes changes with the change of the seasons, and always shows its unique beauty. But when I want to tell my friends around me what is good about Ayr City, I can't tell it.

In the morning, Noah and Shirley wanted to stroll around Ayr City and asked me where is the fun in Ayr City. Unfortunately, I couldn't give any good advice. For this reason, I specially asked Tracy, but Tracy couldn't tell me where is the fun in Ayr City.

Nancy gave us some advice. If you want to see the prosperity of El City, you might as well go to the central street of El City. It is the central axis of El City and the most prosperous and lively place in El City, with all kinds of shops lined up.

If you want to find a quiet and beautiful place, you can go to Stans College. The architecture of the fighting field in the college is very distinctive, and now the school is on vacation, so the college is particularly quiet.

The War College in Central Mountain is also worth a visit. The environment there is very good. It is an area where nobles live in large numbers. Standing on the municipal square, you can also see the whole picture of El City.

…

In the morning, Noah and I did not go together.

I went to visit teachers and some friends in the magic academy. Noah did not run around with me. He invited Cindy to be their guide and take Shirley Newman to play in El City.

Miss Cindy is no longer the firewood girl she used to be. She has gradually acquired the outline of Nancy. Her thin cheeks have slowly become plump. Her long golden hair is braided into a long braid. She likes to squint her eyes when she smiles, like a sunflower in autumn. Cindy is not a girl with a pretty face. There are even a few light pink freckles on her cheekbones, but she doesn't look ugly at all.

Tracy complained to me that since Ryan had this new daughter, he once again divided half of his love for her, which made Tracy a little crazy. However, because Cindy always secretly washed Tracy's underwear and brushed her leather boots, Tracy couldn't say a harsh word to Cindy.

Noah and I made an appointment to have a meal with the most characteristic food of El City in the evening.

I remember that when I was in the imperial capital, Noah treated me to a tribal orc-style barbecue once, but I think that high-end restaurant has nothing to praise except the elegant environment and realistic murals. Although the barbecue is delicious, it is not the taste of Pai Plateau. Bobby is naturally very familiar with the delicacies in El City, because Bobby is a natural foodie. Teacher Flanders once said: If he can use one-third of his obsession with food to learn magic, then he will definitely be an excellent magician.

If Marvin had not lost an arm in Xinliu Valley, perhaps he would also be an excellent magician.

However, his life is not bad now. He is the youngest and most promising magic businessman in El City. His magic grocery store has opened branches in other cities in the Northern Province. He has just graduated from the War Magic Academy and has his own industry. Moreover, because Marvin has lost an arm, he does not need to serve in the military. For a magician noble like Marvin, there are still many noble lords in El City who are willing to marry their daughters to him.

Si Pei is a female swordsman studying at Stans College. Her family background is very ordinary, but because she met Marvin in Xinliu Valley, she has been with Marvin since then. Occasionally seeing the two of them whispering together, you will feel that their life is actually quite sweet.

…

Yingli and I sat side by side. Yingli quietly held my hand. Our hands were covered by the wide white lace cuffs. Yingli's eyes wandered outside the glass window, as if he was admiring the snow outside the window. Katrina sat on the other side of me, but she wanted to chat with Becky, so she changed seats with Helena.

As soon as Helena sat over, she took the initiative to hold her arm. Perhaps she was used to being the focus of everyone's attention, so she was not afraid of other people's eyes.

The magic caravan stopped next to the ski resort on the north slope of Central Mountain. From a distance, you can see young men and women rushing down the slope on skis.

Every year, the first snow after winter covers the north slope of Central Mountain. The temporary ski resort on the north slope becomes a practice field for beginners.

Before spring comes, the snow on the north slope generally does not melt, and the slope of the north slope is gentle, which happens to be the best place for beginners to practice skiing. There is an unwritten rule in the north slope ski resort, that is, once you are slightly proficient in skiing, you have to give the venue here to other beginners.

Since I brought the skis to Ayr City, skiing has become an escape skill that every resident of Ayr City must learn.

In the wild snow, if you encounter barbarians, skiing escape has the highest success rate, of course, the premise is that you need to be on the mountain. As long as you step on the skis and dive down the slope, without a companion to intercept in front, it is generally difficult for the barbarians to catch up.

Noah and Shirley made an agreement with me to first buy two pairs of skis at the Oriana Magic Store on Central Avenue, and then go to the ski resort on the north slope of Central Mountain to practice skiing. Although the idea of ​​the skis was brought to Egypt by me, It's from Seoul, but the business that really makes snowboards beautiful, light and easy to use is none other than Oriana Magic Store.

Nowadays, Oriana magic has its own industrial system. There are advanced magic academies that cultivate magic talents, magic research institutes that study magic puppets, and magic workshops that make magic items. Finally, they are spread across every corner of the Green Empire. magic shop.

Oriana Magic not only monopolizes magic tools such as humanoid magic puppets and prosthetics, but also extends its tentacles to other fields.

In El City, the skis at Oriana Magic Store are the most famous and the best, but if you want to buy a pair of skis from Oriana Magic Store, ordinary people cannot afford such an expensive expense.

However, Noah was no ordinary person.

Don't look at Bobby and Marvin. The former is a fat man with a round belly, and the latter is a disabled person who has lost an arm. Their skiing skills are quite good. The few of us got off the magic caravan. , Bobby smiled and said: "I haven't been here for a long time, and I have almost forgotten all my previous skiing skills."

Marvin sneered and said to Bobby: "How come I heard that there was a young man from a big slave owner's family in Ayr City who fell in love with a pure-looking priest apprentice in the temple and often went to Mount Aetia. I asked someone to go skiing in the temple? Did I hear it wrong?”

After being exposed by Marvin in one sentence, Bobby was not annoyed. He was just shy and said to Marvin: "The wedding of Senior Benjamin and Mia Priest. I found that marrying a priestess as my wife is definitely a very cool thing." matter."

I asked with some surprise: "Is Senior Benjamin married?"

Bobby said: "Ah! He is now the son of the consul of El City, and his status in El City is not ordinary now. The wedding is held in winter."

Tracy's letter mentioned this matter. It turns out that senior Benjamin is already married.

…

A group of us walked into the ski resort on the north slope of Central Mountain and saw a group of young men and women sitting at the edge of the ski resort changing shoes. We saw that their tight warm leather jackets were stained with ice and snow. Apparently they had just finished skiing. Everyone was excited. The mood has not calmed down yet, and while changing shoes, they talked passionately about skiing.

These young people are much younger than us. When someone saw Marvin and Bobby, they immediately stood up respectfully to say hello, saying: "Hello, senior."

Bobby told me that these young people are all freshmen at the Junior War College this year and use the winter vacation to practice skiing.

I left El City at the beginning of the year, so naturally I didn’t know these new students at the Zhan Zhan Academy.

At this time, I happened to see Ann Zimmerman in the crowd. He was wearing a black magic apprentice robe. He had grown taller and thinner. His eyebrows had become more mature, and his smart eyes had more eyes. He was calm and looked at me in surprise.

Standing next to An were two beautiful aristocratic girls, talking to An with admiring expressions on their faces, seemingly unwilling to pay attention to others.

I smiled gently at An, stood in the crowd here, and waved to him.

An's eyes lit up when he saw me waving to him, his brows widened, he glanced at the noble girl next to him, hesitated for a moment, then reached out and pulled the two of them out of the crowd, ran to me, and said to me happily: "Ji Brother Jia, when did you come back?”

"A magic airship arrived in El City yesterday evening." I said with a smile as I looked at An, who had a delicate face. "According to the custom of War Magic Academy, you have to call me senior."

"Senior Jijia." The gloomy atmosphere in An's eyes has disappeared a lot. It seems that life in El City is slowly healing him, dispelling the shadow left in his heart in the cellar of Zimmerman Manor.

The two aristocratic girls next to him also greeted me obediently. They seemed to be two aristocratic girls with good tutoring. When Ann said my name, their eyes flashed with surprise. Looks like he's heard my name somewhere.

Thinking about my relationship with Aaliya, I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when facing An. However, I calmed down my emotions and then said to An: "I wanted to go to your place tomorrow, but Mrs. Aaliya asked me to take care of her." Many gifts for you, I didn’t expect you to be at the ski resort.”

I introduced these friends around me to An.

In the distance, An's friends were calling him.

So, I waved my hand to him and said, "Wait for me at home tomorrow morning. I'll go find you and see how you're doing with your magic studies this semester."

An said happily: "Okay."

Then he said goodbye to me and took the two noble girls back to the young men and women. The group of people left the North Slope Ski Resort talking and laughing.

…

When I saw Noah, Shirley Newman and Cindy, I thought I was seeing a snow monster on the top of the snowy mountain. I had never seen someone learn to ski and make themselves so embarrassed, especially Cindy actually looked out of breath and exhausted. It was hard to imagine what they had done on the ski resort.

I remember that Tracy taught Cindy how to ski. Tracy used her own savings to buy a very good pair of skis for Cindy. Cindy was so moved that she shed tears. It only took a week for Tracy to buy Cindy a very good pair of skis. Skiing skills are well practiced.

At this time, I saw three people standing on the snow on the north slope, their clothes covered with ice and snow.

I asked Cindy strangely: "Why are you so embarrassed? The North Slope Ski Resort is the most suitable training ground for beginners..."

Cindy blushed slightly and lowered her head in silence.

At this time, Shirley Newman said angrily: "It's not because Noah, who had just learned a little bit, felt that he had mastered all the essentials of skiing. He had to rush down from the top of the slope, but he couldn't stop it halfway. Keep your speed, if Cindy hadn't caught up with him from behind, he might have been thrust into the snowdrift ahead like a fork!"

"Hey, please keep my image a little bit in front of Jijia's friends." Noah protested to Shirley: "Didn't you also agree with the proposal of rushing down from the top of the slope?"

"Who thought your skills were so bad that I would have to wrestle with you? It's really embarrassing!" Shirley complained to Noah in dissatisfaction.

Shirley Newman's personal maid ran from a distance, holding a brush in her hand, walked up to Noah and the others, and quickly cleaned the ice slag on the three people's bodies. These ice scum must be cleaned up in time. If If you hang it on your body for too long, the leather jacket will become stiff.

I didn't expect Noah and Shirley Newman's athletic talents to be so bad. At the beginning, the tauren Luka and Kalantso learned how to use them in the wild. In just half a day, they were able to move freely in the snow on skis. Yes, I rubbed my hands and said to Noah: " That’s it for today’s practice. However, it seems that your skiing skills still need to be gradually improved. I’m afraid you won’t be able to join my hunting barbarian team tomorrow. When you become proficient in skiing, I will help you find a skiing team. The best Falcons team in the city.”

Noah showed a bitter look on his face and said to me: "Jijia, what do you mean by that, do you mean that you are not going to take us with you on the hunting trip tomorrow?"

I patted the ice shards off his shoulders, put my arms around his shoulders and said, "If you really want to go to the wild with us, then ride a magic harpoon, otherwise you won't be able to keep up with us."

Noah hesitated for a moment, glanced at Shirley, then at Ying Li, and asked me: "Then will Ying Li stay in El City too?"

I said to Noah: "Of course they have to stay. They also have to practice some skiing skills. Don't worry. Tomorrow I will just take people to the countryside to investigate the situation of those barbarians. Although we can find out from the taverns in the city There is information from outside, but we still need to go out and take a look in person.”

"Okay." Noah said reluctantly, and then he said to me excitedly: "Jijia, let me tell you, skiing is really fun."

I said to Noah: "By the way, Noah, let me introduce you to some friends from El City, Bobby, Marvin, and Si Pei. These two are Noah and Shirley Newman..."
