My Magic Age

Walking through the lush woods, I could hear the faint sound of melodious music played by harps and bagpipes.

On a sunny morning, on the first day of returning to the magic academy, being able to listen to such a beautiful piece of music before class was refreshing. At the gate of the magic academy, magic apprentices gathered in groups of three or two. A girl in a magic robe was holding a crystal ball, surrounded by many people, and exclamations were heard from time to time.

Even the two magic assistants who were on duty at the door today stretched their necks to look over there. This magic crystal ball, which is almost between magic and divination, is very attractive to many magic apprentices. Many magicians firmly believe that as long as their spiritual power can be connected with the crystal ball, they can cross the shackles of time and space and peek into the true image of history and the future world.

Ying Li and I walked side by side on the playground in front of the teaching building of the magic academy, and greeted the classmates who passed by us naturally and familiarly. In the past, I wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. For many people I didn't know well, I was more like an invisible air that could float freely past them. But now I have to face the smiles on their faces and say to them, "Hey! Long time no see."

Ying Li's mouth slightly curved, she covered her mouth with her hands and whispered to me, "Ji Jia, you seem to have become a celebrity in the magic academy all of a sudden!"

Faced with her teasing, I shrugged my shoulders helplessly. Ying Li's big watery eyes smiled like a crescent moon. She was wearing a black magic robe and holding two thick magic books in her arms. It was probably the book return day. When she was going to the library, she was going to return the books.

There was a sound of running footsteps behind us. We heard someone calling my name, so we stopped and looked back.

At this time, I saw Theresa, wearing a well-cut magic robe, catching up from behind and walking side by side with me and Ying Li. She greeted me with a smile, her bright eyes full of surprise, and she put her hand on Ying Li's shoulder intimately, hugging Ying Li's arm like a sister.

I smiled but didn't say anything, thinking in my heart: If Theresa knew that Ying Li was the princess of the Green Empire, I wonder what her expression would be at this moment!

Seeing that I looked at the two of them with a smile in my eyes, Ying Li rolled her eyes at me and said, "What are you thinking about again!"

I just pretended not to hear her words and greeted Theresa: "Hi, Theresa, your new magic robe is very beautiful!"

"Ha, really? I'm glad to hear you say that. I thought that in the magic academy, you only care about what Ying Li wears every day!" Theresa seemed to be in a good mood. Since she had the magic pet of Rock Golem, she has gradually emerged in the magic academy. Her pet has great potential, and many teams in the academy have offered her olive branches. It seems that overnight, she has become a representative figure among the freshmen of the magic academy.

On the corridor in front, Swift was holding a book of detailed explanations of magic runes, memorizing the complicated magic runes in it while walking. He was still the same, unwilling to waste a second, even if he was walking on the road, he would hold a book and read it, firmly occupying the throne of the top student in the magic academy. Seeing how obsessed he was, the three of us walked to his side, but he seemed to be unaware. After walking forward for more than ten steps, when he was about to open the next page of the magic book, he found that there was an extra me beside him. He pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and was surprised to say hello to me, only to find that there were Ying Li and Theresa on my other side. He laughed dumbly, put his hand on my shoulder and said, "When did you come here? Why didn't you remind me earlier? Is your injury healed?"

"Well, it's almost healed. Don't forget that I am a water magic apprentice!" I patted my chest and said.

"Oh my god, you still know that you are from the water class?" Ying Li looked at me with an exaggerated expression, and she looked like a naughty little witch.

The four of us walked side by side on the playground of the academy. Even the seniors of the magic academy looked at us with a sense of vigilance. I never thought that I would become so famous in the magic academy overnight.

"Ji Jia, you must not know that your name is now very famous in the magic academy. Everyone calls you "aggressive Ji Jia". Last week, someone from the warrior academy came over and said that he wanted to duel with you!" Swift held his heavy magic rune book. He was thin and tall, but he was a little hunched when he walked.

"This name seems to be good. It is much better than those nicknames like Berserker or Butcher!" I said with a smile.

My self-deprecation attracted a burst of laughter from my friends around me.

The closer we walked to the teaching building, the clearer the music sounded. I praised the melodious piano music to several people.

Swift and Theresa seemed a little strange, humming and hawing vaguely in agreement, but did not continue the conversation. It seemed that they did not want to comment on the owner of the piano music.

Ying Li seemed a little embarrassed and did not express any opinion.

I did not understand why. I thought it was because of my taste. My friends did not agree with the music I thought was good. I thought to myself: I really need to pay attention to what kind of music people here like in my spare time. But looking at the pool at the entrance of the teaching building, it was also full of people. Those magic apprentices seemed to be listening to those beautiful melodies quietly like me.

I had a big question mark in my mind. I walked to the fountain in front of the teaching building and found that the guy playing the harp was Nichols. When he saw me, he nodded to me very gentlemanly, which was a very polite greeting. He held a harp in his white hands like a girl, and the melodies came from his harp.

No wonder they kept silent about the beautiful melody. It turned out that I was the only one who was kept in the dark. No wonder Ying Li had no interest in discussing it. I remember that she liked the elves' opera-like music very much. This guy is really annoying. He actually used such a small trick, which seemed to be very effective. A group of girls who were fascinated by it had gathered by the fountain.

I don't want to let go of my dislike for him, pretend to be indifferent, wear a hypocritical mask on my face, and greet him warmly like a spring breeze, just like a gentleman among the nobles.

For those aristocratic hypocrisy, I prefer the directness of the beasts. I snorted with disdain, and then walked away without even looking at him.

I turned a blind eye to Nichols' smile, and ignored his gentle greeting with a smile. I directly stepped onto the stone steps in front of the teaching building and walked into the teaching building. Swift and Theresa looked at each other, quickly made a choice between me and Nichols, and followed me into the teaching building. But Ying Li stopped, smiled and greeted Nichols, and then ran all the way to catch up with me.

"Jia, you should say hello to him, he greeted you first, this is etiquette!" Ying Li told me her opinion, she has always been a very opinionated girl.

I said dully: "I don't like such etiquette!"

Ying Li probably thinks that I don't have aristocratic style, but I am not a noble. There was no quarrel between us...

She didn't say anything else, and we walked into the classroom in silence.

For the first time, our opinions diverged a little, which made me feel a little uncomfortable. The problem still happened to the half-elf. I felt that the last punch was a little light. I should have been more ruthless and let him get out of El City!

... Beautiful dividing line...

The library seemed very quiet in the morning. Most students would take the time to meditate in the early morning after taking some major subjects, so there were few people who came to read books. In the room where the miscellaneous talks and black magic books were placed in the huge library, only Ying Li and I stood on the wooden ladder, looking for books that were useful to us one by one. Several magic book administrators in the library were directing several magic brooms to sweep back and forth on the bookshelves in the library.

We have searched all kinds of bookshelves in the entire library. Originally, there were not many explanations and records of those black magic in the library. We happened to be looking for the corresponding answer to the single topic of "magicization", but unfortunately this area was a bit too small, and there was a feeling of not knowing where to start.

In the library, Ying Li and I were looking through books on black magic. We spent a long time but found nothing. We couldn't find any information about "demonization".

"Jia, we can only look for nothing if we continue!" Ying Li said to me. She slowly climbed down a ladder, and a trace of dust rubbed on her fair face.

We held several heavy magic books and piled them on a desk. The accumulated dust looked like these unpopular books had not been touched for a long time. These were epic battles between the coalition forces and the demons. Most of the records were poems. These ancient imperial languages ​​looked very profound and difficult to understand.

I took out an ancient book with a secret key hole on the cover. It was the first time I saw a book with a keyhole on the cover. However, I searched over and over again for several times, but in the end I couldn't find the key to open this magic book.

I frowned and said to Ying Li, "I want to look for it, maybe there will be some gains, even if it's just a little bit, it's good for me!"

Ying Li didn't say anything, just stared at me seriously, I knew what she wanted to ask!

I looked at her sincerely, and she was defeated in the end. Between the two of us, she has always been the weak passive one.

Then we went to the special area of ​​magic material books to find the discussion about "demon blood". In fact, there are not many books about magic in the War College Library. The so-called one-by-one partitions are also closely adjacent, and the magic books that we have flipped through are rearranged.

If we don't do this, when we walk out of the library, we will lose the right to enter the library again to read books for free.

But this time we are lucky, for magic materials such as "demon blood", there are still simple introductions in some magic books.

The reason is that it is the main material for making 'Jade Fire Ink'. Although Jade Fire Ink is not common, it still exists. However, most materials only briefly describe the uniqueness of Jade Fire Ink, and even the magic experience of drawing the 'Magic Catalysis' scroll is not recorded.

When I thought of Su's pitiful appearance, my heart became extremely anxious.

Su's condition is getting worse day by day, and she relies more and more on those 'Shadow Body' medicines. At the beginning, she could control it and take the medicines according to the dosage I told her, but when she fell into a state of confusion, , I don’t even know what can be done to save her. Yes, I used 'Devil's Blood' to prepare some 'Shadow Body' potions, which can maintain Su's physical condition and ease her pain when her drug addiction attacks, but this is not a good idea after all. .

Su told me that her inner demon has begun to cause trouble in her body. It should be the resurrected demon in her body, another version of herself full of negative emotions and depraved emotions. If that part dominates her body, Su might really lose himself.

Sue had begged me to end her life before she completely lost herself.

But how could I do it! Only by eliminating the shadow state in her body and making her a normal person, maybe she can return to El City and start her life again.

I began to pray in my heart: Sister Guoguo, please bless Su in heaven and let her get through this crisis safely!

The tall bookshelf was already covered with dust. Just when I was exhausted, I saw Instructor Heidi walking downstairs. She still had a cold expression, so I stepped forward to say hello. This time, Teacher Heidi obviously wanted to communicate more with me. She glanced at the reading area and walked straight over. I knew in my heart that Teacher Heidi had something to say to me.

In her usual greetings to me, Teacher Heidi often just ended with a "hmm", or simply turned a blind eye and walked past me.

I asked Teacher Heidi about the knowledge of ‘demonization’.

When her frosty eyes looked at me, it was like countless black ice blades piercing into my heart. The sharp feeling made me uncomfortable.

She talked about some knowledge about demonization. She said: "No one has used the word 'demonization' for a long time. It has been thousands of years since the demons were expelled from Roland Continent by the alliance forces of various races. Regarding The ancient books that were 'demonized' were either banned and had already been burned by the Magic Guild and the Temple, or they were very simple and had no real content at all. Perhaps there was only the Ivory Tower of the Magician's Guild in Sloit Province. Only in our own library can we have such books."

I thought to myself, it turns out that I have to go to the library of the Ivory Tower of the Sloit Province Magic Guild to find those books!
