I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha

After Helena fell asleep, Roland read for a while longer.

The knowledge in the book allowed him to temporarily forget the worries of the ballet ghost.

Rubbing his eyes, Roland also planned to sleep. When he turned his head, he found that half of Helena's body was already lying on his blanket.

Roland couldn't help but recall the things in Helena's bag. He cursed inwardly, 'This damn girl, she keeps saying she's picking up trash, but she's richer than anyone else!'

Previously, when rummaging through Helena's package, looking for the forest entry permit, the things inside almost made Roland's eyes pop out.

He just casually glanced at it and saw 3 strange objects, a small pile of magic stones, various magic element gems, and five or six pieces that looked a bit like magic stones, but were larger and had more pure magic power.

Among all the things above, the small pile of magic stones was the least valuable—belonging to coins, small change.

Besides these things from before, there was also a pile of junk. Just the junk she picked up.

'When Alice was little, she also liked to pick up trash. Even though Baron Holler's wine cellar had more than twenty large oak barrels of gold coins. But Alice kept clamoring for me to take her to the adventurer's tavern's backyard to find treasure.'

If it weren't for the Yellow-Brown Fern Forest incident, would I be able to stay away from trouble and become Baron Holler's adopted son, his son-in-law?

No, that wouldn't work. Roland felt like he couldn't stay there.

Besides, he really didn't have any feelings for Alice.

She was indeed a very beautiful girl. But the two of them had played together since they were little, like close siblings. They even bathed in the same big wooden tub when they were young.

Roland really couldn't muster any interest in her.

In Roland's heart, she was just a clingy, annoying little sister.

Roland treated Alice like a younger sister. He also treated Helena like a little sister.

'Lady's illness should be cured by now, right?'

Roland looked at the ceiling and slowly fell asleep.

In his sleep, Roland felt someone grinding their teeth and talking in their sleep while pushing towards him.

When Roland woke up in the morning, everyone was still asleep. Roland felt half of his shoulder was numb. He opened his eyes and found that Helena was lying in his arms.

Helena's eyelashes fluttered, and her face slowly turned crimson. She seemed to be awake.

Roland didn't notice these small details. He quietly moved Helena's head away, got up and kicked Adam and the others' butts, waking them all up.

Everyone washed up and ate some dry food. Waiting for the person who was coming to pick them up.

Roland suddenly remembered the mountain monster incident, took out the ten magic stones, and told them about Professor Bernard's forced purchase.

Roland was indeed desperately poor now, with only twenty magic stones left in his pocket. He didn't even know if it would be enough to pay the tuition later.

Moreover, Roland was planning to choose an independent dormitory. Although Wallace could give him the back door to choose any dormitory he wanted, the academy would collect the accommodation fee, and Roland would definitely have to pay it himself.

But he couldn't pocket these 10 magic stones. Roland's conscience wouldn't allow it.

Seeing Roland take out 10 magic stones to distribute, Lawrence, Helena, and another new student hesitated for a while, then reached out their hands, but Adam slapped their hands away.

Helena said pitifully, "Adam, we can't survive anymore... Let's take these two magic stones."

Roland glanced at Helena and cursed inwardly, 'You damn little rich girl, you're the richest of all. In the end, I still have to save you guys. I have to extort this stinky girl later. Otherwise, I'll be unhappy!'

Roland was very resentful of the rich now.

Adam said decisively, "Big Brother Roland, we have already discussed it. We'll split the money from this mission according to our share, but when we have money later, the three of us will give you five more magic stones each. This is some of our gratitude, you must accept it. If you don't accept it, we won't be able to meditate peacefully in the future."

There were a total of four people in Adam's group, but he said, 'The three of us will give you some gratitude'.

When he said this, the usually silent new student in the team lowered his head, avoiding everyone's gaze.

Roland looked at the expressions of these four people and suddenly understood.

He thought to himself, 'No matter how good friends are, after experiencing hardships, there will always be people who go their separate ways.'

Roland thought for a while and didn't act pretentious anymore. He said, "Then I will accept the 15 magic stones."

Helena said cautiously, "Then these two magic stones..."

Roland secretly rolled his eyes, took out eight of the 10 magic stones, and distributed them to the four people.

The new student whose name Roland didn't remember hesitantly took the two magic stones and then didn't say anything.

Lawrence happily took the magic stones and said with joy, "Senior, clear accounts between brothers. We will divide the spoils of war and the bounty normally. When we have money later, we will return your favor of 5 magic stones. 5 magic stones are few, but that's all I can scrape together, don't think it's too little. If you need anything in the future, just say it. I, Lawrence, have a worthless life, I'm not afraid of death, I will definitely not refuse."

After Adam took the magic stones, he nodded and said, "There is still a bounty, plus those scraps, we can scrape together five or six magic stones. Big Brother Roland, this little money is not enough to repay you for risking your life to save us, but it is also some of our gratitude."

Roland looked at these two new students and thought to himself, 'These two friends are worth making. Adam and Lawrence are both hardworking, talented, and have good character. Although their strength is low now, they will definitely go far in the future.'

At this time, the last two magic stones in Roland's hand were snatched away by Helena, "Senior Roland, I owed someone some money before... I'll give you those five magic stones back when I have money, okay?"

Roland was secretly furious. He thought to himself, 'Little rich woman, you wait!'

Suddenly, a gray-robed wizard knocked on the door.

Everyone hurriedly tidied up their clothes and opened the door to invite the person outside in.

This wizard was at the level of a middle-level apprentice, but he looked to be in his forties or fifties.

Generally, if someone doesn't advance to a high-level apprentice by the age of thirty, they are not allowed to stay in the academy. So he wasn't a senior, but an administrative staff member of the academy. His rank was deputy section chief, but he was serving as the temporary director of the admissions office, with an independent office.

He was originally from the White Chess Academy and was transferred over three years ago.

This person seemed a bit arrogant, his name was Benjamin. After entering, he first introduced himself, and then led everyone out the door.
