My Magic Age

When the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone into the attic, Fanny opened the door and walked in, looking at me with a slightly helpless expression. Perhaps because she couldn't bear to wake me up, she opened the white curtains, and the bright sky made me unable to open my eyes. I woke up from my sleep in a daze, and looked blankly at Fanny, whose face was obviously unhappy. It was only then that I realized that I had overslept. Originally, today was the registration day for the Magic Awakening Ceremony. If I went too late, I might have to wait until tomorrow to participate in the Awakening Ceremony. At this time of year, almost all twelve-year-old children in El City Everyone will gather at the Zhanzhan Academy and wait in line to participate in the awakening ceremony.

Last year, I couldn't help but be curious about this grand ceremony, and begged Fanny to take me to see it. Only then did I feel that the grand occasion was really shocking, with chaotic crowds everywhere, like a grand festival. Because of this, I lost my initial curiosity about the ceremony. Because of this, before going to bed yesterday, I forgot to remind myself that there was something important today, and I was unable to get out of bed early.

Fanny barged in because I hadn't gone downstairs for breakfast. I jumped out of bed quickly, put on a pair of wooden slippers, and with a bird's nest of messy hair, went downstairs to the restaurant to eat. During breakfast, the wooden stairs made a clanging sound, and I rushed down in a gust of wind, ran into the kitchen and slipped into my place.

Lent was sitting at the dining table with a provincial newspaper in his hand, and a cup of tea in front of him. The aroma gave the whole room a faint fragrance. Tracy was wearing a cool vest and shorts, with a curvy figure. , she is in the prime of life and is in the beautiful moment of blooming. Her body is like a flower bud full of vitality and covered with morning dew, so beautiful and flawless.

She was drinking polenta sleepily at this time. There were two fried eggs on the plate in the center of the dining table. A dinner plate had been placed in front of my seat, and there were particularly ugly fried eggs in it, with one side still a little burnt. I knew at a glance that it was definitely not Fanny's hand, but I still had to pretend to be surprised, and then wolfed down this bitter omelette with an expression like eating delicious food.

There was a teasing smile on Liant's lips. He read the newspaper intently, crossed his legs on the chair, and hummed a song with an incomprehensible rhythm. When I was about to finish the bowl of polenta, I put down the newspaper in my hand, raised my eyes to look at the mahogany clock beside me, and calculated that there was still some time. After thinking about it for a while, I asked me: "Are you going to attend the Magic Awakening today?" Ceremony, what are your thoughts after the ceremony? I heard someone said you weren't considering coming to Staas College? ? I really want to know why. Can you give me a reason? I think the junior warrior academy in El City War Academy can be called the best, but it is definitely not the most suitable academy, even if it is very talented. My child, it’s very difficult to successfully graduate from the Junior Warrior Academy of the Zhan Zhan Academy.”

"But I want to try it!" I could only stubbornly find a lame excuse. I chewed a crisp pickled cucumber stick in my mouth, took a big mouthful of polenta, and buried my head in the bowl. In fact, I really want to tell Liant that I just want to go to the Magic Academy of the War College, but how can I tell him this reason?

Stans College does not have a Ministry of Magic, which is the biggest flaw of Stans College. Fanny and Liante never expected me to become a magician. They hoped that I could learn the Western rapier from Liante like Tracy. Liante was very satisfied with my physical fitness. As a swordsman, What is most needed is not how strong the strength or how fast the speed is, but the ability of body coordination and balance, followed by speed and accuracy, and finally, of course, strength is indispensable.

Among the many twelve-year-old children in El City, my strength is not dominant, but my speed and endurance can even reach the physical fitness of a fourteen-year-old or a fifteen-year-old child. Although Liant did not say it, I know that he very much hopes Became my martial arts enlightenment, but I know that Qiangbach had already become the leader of my martial arts enlightenment in Xinghu Grassland. Later, I met Kurt, who taught me How to dodge the warchief with Kurz's "charge" skill, I inherited the martial arts of the orcs in my bones, those martial arts full of explosive and destructive power, so I had no interest in swordsmanship at all. Every time Liant politely offered to let me practice Whenever I was fighting with a sword, I would find some reasons to escape. Gradually, he began to understand that I had no idea about his martial arts, and his heart gradually became lighter.

But now, at the age of going to school, he began to have new ideas, especially when he knew about my behavior in the oak forest outside the town of Fecamp, and he began to slowly reflect on his neglect of me in recent years, and after all, I was the same A child who dares to travel alone in the mountains and forests of Sloit Province. My mature mind and experience are hard to find among these city children.

"Have you thought about what you want to learn in the future? You never said which aspect of martial arts you like!" Liant was also very curious and wanted to know my thoughts. I complained in my heart. In fact, I really didn't have any ideas. If I had to As for what kind of martial arts I like, I actually like more extreme and violent dagger weapons, but I also disdain attacks and other methods. I prefer the techniques and tactics of Ivli.

At this time, Fanny had come down from upstairs with a paper box. Seeing that I had finished my meal, she did not forget to praise Tracy. She said to Tracy: "First of all, I want to thank our little princess for her dedication early in the morning. She made these breakfasts with me early in the morning. It is a special day. Our Jia will go to the War College to participate in the annual grand celebration and magic ceremony. Here, Ryant, Tracy and I offer our most beloved little son, Jia, the most sincere wishes. Oh, by the way, Jia! Come on, I have prepared a gift for you, come and open it!"

"What is this?" I looked over curiously. It was a colorful paper The box had colored strips tied with knots on it. Tracy also came over and sniffed it with her sensitive nose. She frowned and snorted, saying, "It's a soft leather inner armor, made of yellow sheepskin!"

"Oh, Tracy, can't you let Jia open his gift in person with some suspense?" Fanny complained very unsatisfiedly, and then took off the lid of the box with one hand, revealing a finely crafted soft leather inner armor. I think it must be customized according to my figure. It fits very well when worn, and there is no hindrance to my body to do various movements.

"Thank you, Fanny. I like it very much!" I smiled at Fanny.

Pushing open the door, I found that there were already many people on the street. Originally, I had just convinced Ryant and Fanny that there would definitely be a lot of people at the ceremony, and that walking into the War College would only be squeezed to death. They gave up the idea of ​​sending me to the War College in person, but they refused to let me go to the War College alone. In the end, Tracy volunteered to accompany me to the magic awakening ceremony, which was unanimously agreed by everyone.

When I passed by the front door of Guoguo's house, I saw Su in the glass window waving at me vigorously. She probably forgot the embarrassment we had yesterday. I even saw a fiery red figure beside her, flashing in the window. I thought she was probably Su's second sister, the girl named Annie. It turned out that she was back.

The red curly hair reminded me of Katrina. She moved very fast and I couldn't catch her figure.

Su was sitting in a wheelchair. When she saw me standing at the door of her house, she stood there and stared at her. She was so embarrassed that she hurriedly hid in the corner.

"Her eyes are as clear as water..." Tracy sighed softly. How could people on this street not know this angel-like beautiful girl Su? Like her sisters, she always had some special features, such as the genius water magician Guoguo, the sword dancer Annie who studied with the teacher half-elf Gwalop, and Su who often sat under the lemon tree reading. Tracy asked again in a particularly annoying way: "You don't like her, do you?"

"I don't!"

"The more you quibble, the more it proves the problem..."

...beautiful dividing line...

"Jia, isn't there anything that can surprise you?" Tracy put her hands in her trouser pockets. She was wearing a white shirt with lace and a brown deerskin vest. Her eyes were a little slender. She squinted in the sun and looked very heroic. Her long hair was tucked behind her ears.

We walked north along the stone-paved street. There were all kinds of shops on both sides of the street. On this special day, they all opened early. There were many pedestrians on the street, and occasionally there were cars and horses. The various aromas of breakfast cakes spread on the street. Those people from the small town who came from outside the city gathered in front of various breakfast stalls, and they also bought a bite to eat in a hurry.

The children who came from outside looked at everything in Ayr City with curiosity, including the black street lights, the unique signs in front of the shops, the exquisite clothes and decorations in the bright and clean wall cabinets, from beds to shoes and socks, which were so dazzling that they almost dazzled people's eyes.

The weather was good, and the clouds in the sky were like light smoke, and perhaps they would completely disperse in a while.

Tracy walked in front, and I had to work hard to keep up with her. I saw that she actually took the initiative to tell Fanny that she would take me to the Ministry of Magic at the War College to line up and participate in the magic awakening ceremony. This made me a little confused. Didn't this girl always refuse to pay attention to my affairs? I followed behind with some suspicion, appearing cautious, like a little civet cat, with a vigilant heart.

"I am very happy! Isn't it also very surprising?" I said pretending to be puzzled.

Tracy raised his chin high, snorted softly, and said directly: "Don't come on, are you insulting my IQ, or do you insist on treating everyone as a fool? Wake up, young man!"

All the high-end buildings in El City are built on a not-so-high mountain, including the mansions of the nobles in El City, the City Hall, the Magic Guild of El City, and an area of ​​​​up to 100 acres, directly occupying the entire hill above the City Hall. The entire War College is like a park in a bustling city, and a War College is hidden in the thick green vegetation. Tracy and I stood far away at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the War College hidden in the green forest, and there was a strong smell of earth elements spreading again, filling the entire hill.

On the street, countless people kept pouring into the path to the Junior Magic College. They were accompanied by a child about my age. When they passed by me, they also looked at me curiously. Those innocent and ignorant big eyes flashed with curiosity.

Tracy and I followed the crowd up the street. I heard her sarcasm and I responded, "Please use honorifics to me. If I can get into the War College and graduate successfully, then it is very likely that I will be a lieutenant when I serve in the North Wind Corps. The chances of me dying on the battlefield are very slim. Do you think you will marry me at that time? And for your future..."

"If you continue talking, I'm not sure if I can control myself and not tear your mouth apart!" I heard Tracy gritted her teeth and said to me. She held my ear with one hand, just like two intimate siblings whispering.

"Don't be stubborn, accept your fate! Tracy." I kept saying to her

She scolded me impatiently: "Shut up!"

In fact, I had already shut up. I was like a lonely boat in the stormy waves in the crowd, pushed and squeezed by the surging crowd, and couldn't help but move forward. Tracy saw that I was about to be drowned in the crowd, so she chased me in the crowd in a panic. This time, she struggled to catch up with me in the crowd, and I don't know how much effort she spent. Then she grabbed my hand and refused to let go. She used her slender body to block me in front, pushed the pedestrians in front of her, and squeezed me forward.

We finally saw the mountain gate of the War College from a distance. Just as we were thinking about how to rush up to register, we suddenly heard someone calling my name in the corner of the wall. I looked over to find the sound and saw Alante and Ivli with their group of friends from Stans College huddled there, shouting my name and calling me over.

At this time, Tracy didn't even think about it. She pulled me directly, squeezed the few people in front of her, and walked towards Alante with difficulty.

Tracy held my hand very tightly, always worried that I would be squeezed away by the crowd.

I struggled to reach Alante and asked him, "Why are you here too?"

"Bring them to participate in the awakening ceremony. There are so many people!" Alante moved his body away a little. Behind him was a quiet girl who looked about the same age as me. At this moment, it seemed to remind me of the scene of the high school entrance examination. The surging crowd outside the gate of the War College made me feel very familiar, and my thoughts sank into the memories of the moment in front of me.

Tracy and Arendt switched positions, letting him block the flow of people outside. Tracy leaned against the corner of the wall and looked down at Arendt's sister, teasing him, "I didn't know you knew how to take care of people, Arendt!"

"There are so many things you don't know..."
