My Magic Age

When we walked out of the ecological park, the sky outside had cleared up. Looking around, it was still gray. The breeze blew the cool southeast monsoon, blowing up Ying Li and Su's charming hair. Ying Li stood quietly outside the field from beginning to end, with a faint smile on her face, and her eyes never left me. She stood quietly aside, waiting for me to come forward and straighten her hair that was blown by the wind, with a sweet smile on her face.

I held Ying Li with one hand, and Su followed Ying Li. Noah was on my other side, describing with great excitement how brave he was in the arena, how he calculated that the 'black oil technique' could detonate the 'fireball technique' that the four magicians on the opposite side focused on in the first place, and how he opened four magic scrolls engraved with 'magic shield' in one go to protect everyone in our team.

Noah began to tell how he forced the magician Jimmy to admit defeat at the critical moment.

Even when walking, Su was used to hiding behind Ying Li. She was like Ying Li's little follower. She kept silent while we talked about the battle in the arena. I didn't expect Su's sacred magic to be so powerful. Instead, Ying Li hugged Su intimately and whispered in her ear.

It was already noon. We came out of the arena in the ecological park. The students in the stands of the arena had almost dispersed. I saw that Qi Ge was no longer on the stands. Probably because he saw that the victory was decided, he left here first.

Some people saw us coming out of the arena and whispered to us, pointing and talking. It seemed that they still couldn't believe that our magic freshmen actually defeated their opponents in the arena. You know, this is a battle example that subverts traditional magic doctrines and theories. Although the duel between the two sides was not a life-and-death game, they did not keep backhands and even used many magic scrolls to assist in the battle.

Some even thought it was unfair. It was just a few people who could cast magic, throwing magic scrolls at each other, and the party with more magic scrolls won.

Some people immediately refuted that this was originally an unfair competition. It was understandable that magic scrolls were used to shorten the gap between the strength of senior and junior students.

At this time, no one in the arena paid attention to the losers in the arena, and the magicians in the stands dispersed one after another.

At the exit of the ecological park, I was still a little hesitant. As a water magician, it was also a violation of the identity of a water magician to abandon the injured like this. However, if I beat them up and then stuck to them and treated them carefully, it would be impossible. I think the Royal School of Magic would never lack water magicians!

Before stepping out of the gate of the ecological park, I couldn't help but look back, and found that only the magic instructor standing in the referee's seat was helping them treat their injuries in the arena. Obviously, the magic instructor was not a water magician and was not good at "water therapy". He seemed to be waiting anxiously. At this time, two teachers wearing the uniform magic uniforms of the academy hurried over, walked into the ecological park, and walked directly to the arena.

I opened my mouth wide and looked at the faint transparent shadow of a huge jellyfish behind one of the magic instructors in surprise. The jellyfish was filled with rich water elements, and even condensed into a mist like a veil around the magician's body. He had a very strong "momentum", and I couldn't feel how strong he was. When he passed by me, my whole body trembled.

I passed by the water magician, and after taking a few steps, he suddenly turned back and stared at me.

At this time, I happened to pass through the light curtain gate of the ecological park. The breath on my body was completely isolated by the magic circle of the ecological park. I paused for a moment with some doubts, and also felt the sharp eyes of the magician looking at my back. I hesitated whether to turn around and walk back.

At this time, Noah, who was walking in front, couldn't wait to shout to me: "Ji Jia, what are you still dawdling about? Don't you have to go to the Magic Research Institute in the afternoon?"

"I think I should at least change my clothes!" I said with a wry smile, looking at the tattered magic top on my body. The tattered places could see the dark arms, but some of the burned areas had quickly scabbed. With the help of Su's "Healing Prayer" and my "Water Therapy", those burns formed a thick layer of scabs. If you peel off this layer of dead skin on your body, you will reveal a whiter and smoother skin.

At this time, I looked like a coal miner who had just come out of the mine. When I smiled, only my teeth and eyeballs were white.

"Let's go. Didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to go to the magic store to buy a suitable magic robe..." Noah came over with a smile, secretly stuffed a few magic crystals into my palm, and then continued: "Now is the perfect time!"

"You can't expect those people to compensate you with a dedication suit, right?" Noah said beside me. Noah is a very thoughtful noble. He should have noticed that I have been wearing this dedication suit for the past two days. He probably thinks that my family is average. As a magician from a civilian family, it is normal for me to not be able to afford to buy the most suitable magic robe for my current level at this time.

He didn't want me to lose face in front of my friends, so he took the opportunity of shaking hands with me during the conversation and stuffed a few magic crystals into my palm.

"I know there is a store that sells very good Misori coats. We should have some time before lunch." Noah continued.

Only then did I realize that I was wearing such a tattered outfit, which was very indecent. So, I took off my tattered dedication suit. Some places of the cotton white shirt inside the magic suit were burned with big holes, and some places were burned yellow. But now I was standing outside the campus, it was not convenient to change, so I had to put on a very ordinary magic apprentice robe. This robe was the robe that the War Magic Academy awarded to each of our magic apprentices when I awakened the magic pool. Now it is obviously very worn out, and some places are even faded. Because Fanny helped me wash it, I have never been willing to throw it away.

Noah looked at me speechlessly when I put on this magic apprentice robe, and the look in his eyes became more clear.

Dennis on the side was heartlessly exclaiming: "Hey, Jijia, you still keep this antique apprentice robe!"

"I have worn it for more than three years, so I have feelings for it!" I smiled and said indifferently.

...

Walking on the rock path in the college square, Noah and Dennis both had a better impression of the approachable Ying Li, but Su was still unwilling to talk to strangers. She would only answer when Ying Li and I asked her questions. Her shy and timid personality was very different from her standing in the arena, which was also what amazed Noah.

I thought to myself: Noah, if you saw Su's appearance when she transformed into the 'shadow body', maybe you wouldn't have such a strong curiosity about Su.

It seemed that someone vaguely heard someone say: "...Look at that girl, she is actually an apprentice priest."

The companion beside him gestured exaggeratedly with his hands in front of his body and said: "For the first time, I feel that it is a very good thing to have a priest fighting by my side!"

"That is someone who can become a priest in the future. The temple will not easily let the priests step out of the temple gate... The system in the temple is very strict." The person who spoke first continued.

"...I can't quite figure it out. It was obviously a disorganized play, but they somehow won. Maybe we can discuss the issue of 'arena tactics' with the instructor in class tomorrow." Another thin magician with a pair of glasses on his nose pulled his soft hair with his hands and said with a hint of doubt.

The famous magician who kept gesturing with his hands put his arm around his shoulders and said in agreement: "Hey, your suggestion is a good one..."

Several magicians who were walking together were talking about our battle happily. They walked in front and didn't seem to notice that we were following them. It was not until we walked out of the ecological park that the magicians turned left at a junction in front and parted ways with us. None of them noticed that we were following them. Maybe they didn't care about our appearance...

At this fork in the road, we turned right through the East Laboratory Building on the right side of the Magic Academy, turned around the oldest clock tower in the academy, and went out from the side door over there and entered the East Street of the Royal Magic Academy. The whole street here is very lively, with many restaurants and magic shops on the street.

Outside the east gate of the Royal School of Magic, when Noah and Dennis saw Helena standing at the gate waiting for us, their eyes looked a little dull, and they were a little overwhelmed by her beautiful appearance. Helena was wearing an exquisite crystal mantis skin light armor, standing at the gate of the school and frequently attracted the attention of passers-by, but she seemed to have gotten used to these looks and didn't care at all. She stood quietly at the gate of the school like a crabapple flower, with a cold face that said "no strangers allowed".

It wasn't until she saw me, Ying Li, and Su appear at the gate of the school that Helena's face bloomed with a beautiful smile. At this moment, her face became lively, but she saw that I looked so dirty, especially my messy hair, which was not much left after being burned by the "fireball spell". My whole body was blackened by smoke and fire, and I was wearing a shabby apprentice-style magic robe. I looked as embarrassed as I could be, which made Helena cover her mouth and couldn't help laughing.

I remembered that when I first arrived in the capital the day before yesterday and visited Ying Li at the Junior Magic Academy, I was despised by the magic apprentices there because of the clothes I was wearing. But I didn't expect that when they met again today, the only dedication suit that looked a little decent was also ruined, which made Helena, who was waiting outside, laugh so hard that she shook with laughter.

Seeing that I was still holding the magic suit that was thrown into the garbage dump and no one would care about it, Helena was a little surprised at first, then looked at me deeply with understanding, reached out to take the burnt black robe in her hand, turned her head to look at Ying Li, and said: "We have a tailor shop that specializes in cutting magic robes. This suit may be repaired. Otherwise, I will take this suit to repair it?"

Ying Li smiled and shook his head, just saying: "It's better to keep it as a souvenir. After several years, when I see this suit, I can remember how Su fought for the first time."

Then, Helena put away the tattered magic robe, and asked us curiously about the battle. Finally, she sighed and complained that she didn't enter the magic academy to see the battle with her own eyes.

Dennis's performance has completely lost the previous free and easy, without the confidence as an alchemist, always unconsciously peeking at Helena, like a shy and introverted otaku. When Helena's eyes met his, he quickly avoided her eyes, as if he had a strong liking for Helena, but he dared not show it.

Observing Noah, this guy has obviously recovered from the initial sluggish state. At this time, he kept looking at Ying Li thoughtfully, as if he had some ideas about Ying Li's identity. Obviously, Noah has seen some clues. A girl like Ying Li, who can be accompanied by a female companion with a priest profession and a female companion of a stunning beauty, needless to say, can also show that she has a good status.

However, Noah did not dwell on this. At Noah's strong request, he walked into a magic shop called "Three Bears" recommended by him and bought an orange Misoli coat.

At lunch time, I originally planned to have a date with Ying Li alone, but it turned out to be a party. However, Ying Li still seemed very happy.

The seafood risotto and desserts in the restaurant were very good. According to Noah, the most famous restaurants near the Royal School of Magic are crowded on this street, and the signature of this restaurant is seafood risotto.

Several of us sat at the dining table, each of us had a large plate of risotto in front of us. Su sat quietly at the side and buried his head in eating, while we chatted one by one.

There were not many people in the restaurant at this time.

"I bet, friends, before tomorrow, we will become very famous in the Royal School of Magic, and there must be many clubs vying to invite us to join!"
