The system gave the wrong traveler

Chapter 161 - Admission Notice

On this day of August NO.15, many people in Erepos saw a very strange scene, that is, there were many, many bats and owls clutching letters and flying to various places in Mira Caesar.

They flew not only to prosperous cities like the imperial capital, Agamemnon, and Ramses, but also to small villages like Hellas and Patilla.It is not only a place full of people, but also a wilderness with few people.

But no one dared to intercept these bats and owls, because these owls and bats are the messengers of the newly established Prometheus Academy of Magic, representing the Green Dragon Academy and the Bat Academy respectively, and the forces behind them are too big to dare imagine!
So no one would have the guts to intercept these owls and bats.

Helya is the child of a villager in Patilla Village in Alasong Land in Tartaros Principality.Just like the children of the villagers, the nine-year-old Helya frolicked with her friends by the small river outside the village, and helped her family catch two fish to improve their food.

However, just when she was about to catch a fish big enough for her family to eat for one night, a child wearing nice clothes different from other children suddenly shouted to her: "Helya!"

Immediately, the fish was scared away.

The dinner she got was gone, Herya was naturally very angry, she couldn't help turning her head and roaring, and said: "West, you are so weak! Your family has no shortage of food, but mine!! It's all right now, my fish ran away Now. You must accompany me!!"

Seeing that Herya was angry, West couldn't help laughing, and said to Herya, "It's just a fish, and now your family is not short of money! Why do you want me to accompany you!?"

Hearing this, Helya was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly climbed ashore from the small river, and together with a few curious friends asked West: "What do you mean by that, my parents put me Did you sell it with your sister?"

It’s no wonder that Helya thinks this way. Helya’s family doesn’t have any land, and her parents are weak and sick. It’s impossible for them to farm and hunt like other villagers. It’s impossible to make money, so her family wants to be rich. There is no other way except selling her daughter.Moreover, a few nights ago, Helya also heard her parents secretly discussing selling her and her sister to support her younger brother.

Seeing Helya who was about to cry, West was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, pointing at Helya and said with a smile: "What nonsense are you talking about? You were killed by Prometheus just like me. The School of Magic invites you to enroll!"

The children of a few villagers on the side asked with some doubts: "School? Doesn't it cost money to go to school? How could her family have money?"

West glanced at the villagers' children indifferently, and said with disdain: "Didn't you read the announcement a few days ago? But any student who is admitted to Prometheus Academy, as long as the monthly family income is less than Those who have two silver coins will receive three gold coins distributed by the lord as a subsidy!"

Helya asked in disbelief, "Really?"

"Of course it is true! You know, I have also received the letter! In addition, the tax collector has also come to the village with the subsidy, and is waiting for you to go there now!" Seeing Hellya, West Believe in yourself, and said very angrily.

At this time, a villager's child on the side couldn't help asking: "How much is four gold coins? If you want to buy barley, how much can you buy?"

Barley is what the villagers usually eat. Because there are only dwarves and ale, barley is very cheap and can't be sold for much.Therefore, it is usually cooked with wild vegetables to make oatmeal porridge. Although the taste is not very good, at least most villagers can rely on this to not go hungry.Of course, the Helya family is not among them.After all, her family has no land.

West smiled and said, "Barley? Even if you buy flour made from wheat, you can buy two big warehouses!!"

After saying that, West ignored the ignorant villagers' children, grabbed Helya's hand, and ran towards the village.

As soon as the other children saw him running away with Helya, they immediately chased after him and ran towards the village together.

A few minutes later, West took Helya and the other children back to the village and came to the village chief's house.

At this time, West's father, Erdis, a fur merchant in the village, and Helya's father, Rot, were talking to the tax collector.

Although he couldn't hear what they were saying, Herya thought her father was asking if he could replace her with her brother.However, as soon as they approached, the tax collector snorted and said: "Rotter, there are some things we can't change! The college is very strict in recruiting students. You won't be allowed to mess around here!"

Upon hearing this, Herya knew that it was impossible for her to be replaced.Although she was very happy, she was a little afraid that her parents would be angry and beat her.

But soon, she heard the tax collector say: "In addition, even if it can be replaced, your son is only three years old, not old enough to go to school. If his talent is good, he should be able to do it in a few years." It will be charged. You don't have to worry about it now!"

The tax collector said so, and Lot was no fool, so he naturally nodded his head and said, "I understand."

At this moment, the tax collector suddenly looked at Helya, West and the others, beckoned to these children and let them pass, and took out a box of candy for the children to share among themselves.

However, West and Helya were left alone in front of him.

Although she didn't understand what the tax collector meant, Herya, who was a little greedy for the candies that were about to be eaten up by those children, still obediently imitated West's appearance and stood in front of the tax collector without moving. .

After a while, when all the candy was eaten and there was only a little bit left, the tax collector laughed, and took out several textbooks and two sets of textbooks from a large bag that he brought with him, and put them in transparent bags. He gave two new clothes to Helya, and said with a smile: "These are the basic textbooks and school uniforms that you will use in class in the future. As for the remaining textbooks, you will have to go to the city to buy them yourself."

As he spoke, he took out six gold coins from his pocket, handed them to Helya, and said, "Although the four gold coins subsidy mentioned in the announcement, there is actually a little secret in it, that is, I gave those children candy. If you can't resist the candy's doubt, then you can only get four gold coins, but you resist the doubt, so you will get six more gold coins!"

Hearing what the tax collector said, Herya couldn't help but blush. She almost couldn't hold back just now, and ran to grab candy with her friends.

The tax collector also knew this, but he didn't mention it kindly, which made Rott have a little good impression of his daughter.

As if thinking of something, the tax collector turned to Rott and said, "By the way, these school uniforms and textbooks must not be damaged, otherwise it will cost money, and it will be a big burden on your family. In addition, the six Among the four gold coins, there are two gold coins for buying other textbooks and school supplies for children, remember to keep them. Do you know?"

"Yes, yes, don't worry. I still understand what a magician means!" Luota was naturally very happy to have four more gold coins for no reason, which can supplement the family.Moreover, he still knows what a magician is.So he nodded vigorously and said.

"Then, this is the admission letter from Prometheus Academy, two children, take a look for yourself." He nodded with a smile, and then the tax collector handed the two letters on the table to Weiss Te and Helya, then bid farewell to the village chief, and left on their own.

Looking at the unusually exquisite letter in her hand, although Helya couldn't understand what was written on it, the excitement in her heart was indescribable!

West, who was at the side, knew that she couldn't understand, so he smiled and took a look at it, and read the contents of the letter to Herya.

"Ms. Rahim, congratulations on being admitted to our Prometheus Academy, where you will learn the use of magic, the production of alchemy items, and unimaginable knowledge. Our academy will take you into a world where you In an unimaginable world, you will become a magician, a scholar, a celebrity and a great man through the ages. The premise is that you don't be lazy.

Well, the joke ends here.

If you agree to study in our college, please sign your name.Of course, if you can't write, you can ask your family or the head of the village to help you sign.

Vice-Chancellor: Miral Saatchi. "

After returning home, Helya and Lot discussed with Helya's mother, and early the next morning, they took Helya's sister and brother to the city with West and his father. Get ready to buy textbooks and school supplies.

Because the first batch of students of Prometheus Academy charged a lot, even in the Duchy of Tartarus, there were 100 students, so in Medea, the only city in the Viscounty of Alasong, they met Several students from the magic academy like West and Helya.

Since everyone is a student, everyone came together and prepared to buy school supplies.

It's just that neither Rotor nor Edis thought that one of these students was the daughter of the lord of Arathon!

Seeing the lord's daughter chatting with his own children, they didn't care about their identities at all. The two of them didn't know how they felt in their hearts, but they were all weird.

Suddenly, a gorgeously dressed nobleman put his arms on their shoulders from behind and said with a smile: "You don't have to be surprised, they will be classmates in the future, so it's normal to look like this now."

Rot and Edis froze slightly, and looked at the person whose arms were placed on them in disbelief.
Seeing that the bodies of Rot and Edis froze slightly, the man couldn't help laughing, and said, "We are all parents who wait for their children to come shopping, there is no difference in identity."

Rott, Edis, and other parents couldn't say anything after hearing the news. After all, they are nobles, and they have already said so. What can you, a commoner, say?So I had to be bold and chatted.

No matter what the adults were talking about, Helya, West, and the other children soon became good friends with the lord's daughter Valerandi, and they all went to pick out school supplies.

Like notebooks, magic pens, crucibles for making alchemy potions, and all kinds of things, some expensive, some very cheap, two gold coins are almost just right.

Just like each family is different, each student buys differently.For example, Herya, who has little money at home, buys things that are basically related to white magic and alchemy. It is obvious that she wants to make some money by relying on these after she returns from her studies.As the lord's daughter, Vallelandi bought things that were biased towards the Wolf Academy.For example, unsharpened long swords, textbooks on the art of war, and textbooks on how to manage the territory and control the guards.Obviously preparing for the future.

Others, like Helya, were partial to white magic and alchemy, and some were preparing to learn elemental magic.West was the only one who bought textbooks for almost all kinds of magic classes.However, for popular subjects such as fencing and alchemy, they did not purchase textbooks and the required long swords and crucibles.

"I remember that the basic textbooks are the history of magic, basic theory of magic, language, and mathematics. These are the few subjects. Looking at Erdis's son, he seems to want to learn all magic!" He glanced at West's arms and held him in his arms. The lord, Viscount Vincent Kerhal, couldn't help but joked.

Seeing his son buying so many textbooks and hearing the lord's jokes, Erdis couldn't help but worry that his son wanted to learn too much.

But since the children have already bought it, we can’t say anything, right?Besides, if the child has this idea, there should be no problem since there are so many professors in the college.

Perhaps because he could see what Edis was thinking, Viscount Keha stopped making fun of West.

At noon, Viscount Keha brought everyone to a restaurant and had the best and most expensive lunch that most parents had in half their lives. Although it was said to be a treat for the Viscount, everyone was still hungry. Regardless of what it is.The kids don't know what to do.

Seeing his father, Viscount Keha, slowly joining the ranks of grabbing food, Valerandy couldn't help but sighed, and took his future classmates to the next room, where they ate slowly, and let people I made some snacks and prepared to let the students take them home for the family to eat.

During the meal, some children who know how to read have already begun to read the contents of the textbook.

Both West and Valerandi have begun to discuss some things that they cannot understand.However, since neither of them had learned the basics of magic, it was basically useless.

While Helya and her six-year-old sister took care of his brother's food, he couldn't help but start to dream about the future life.

After all, both West and Valerandy said that most magicians are not short of money, and some magicians even have more wealth than ordinary lords.It's like the salary of the professors at the Prometheus Academy of Magic, which is 35 gold coins a month!
You know this is not a small amount!Among all the magic schools in Miracaissa, this salary is one of the best!

Subsidies for poor students like them are only four to six gold coins a year!
What would it be like if she could become a professor at the Academy of Magic?
