Chapter 62 Bard Guild
"Little Guitou, are you sure this is the Minstrel Guild? Its roof is leaking!"
Walking into the dilapidated minstrel guild, a beam of sunlight penetrated through the gap in the roof and happened to shine on Bell's face.
He glanced to the side and saw a large wooden basin in the corner of the room. It was definitely used to catch rainwater.
"Mr. Bell, believe me, only the Bard Guild will not admit my mistake."
Edu didn't think it mattered to Bell's doubts. He had long been accustomed to the bard guild's behavior.
"The Warrior Guild knows how to invite a few beautiful girls to front the stage, but the Bard Guild has an old man stationed here, right?"
Looking at the dilapidated minstrel guild, Bell was speechless.
When he saw the feeble old man behind the counter, Bell went numb.
"Um... Actually, this man is not the front desk of the Bard Guild. He is the owner of this house. Because he is a bard, he rents the house to the Bard Guild at a low price as the guild's residence."
"Meow meow, this broken professional guild can't even afford the most basic guild station, right?"
After learning about this professional guild, Bell completely turned into a sweaty bean mouse.
I thought that the Minstrel Guild just couldn't afford beautiful girls to be on stage, but I didn't expect that it was such a heavyweight that even its residence was rented.
"Is it really necessary for this bard professional guild to exist..."
Bell, who was speechless, watched Edu walk to the front desk of the Minstrel Guild, casually took the empty seat and started waiting.
After a while, around nine o'clock in the morning, a young man who looked extremely irritable slowly walked into the Bard Guild.
"Eh?! Someone actually came today, it's rare~"
His tone was lazy, and after entering the door, he first put out a sign that read 'Bard Guild consultation hours from 8 am to 6 pm'.
Although he was already two hours late, this guy didn't feel any guilt at all. Instead, he proudly said to Edu:
"It seems that I made the right decision to stay in bed for only half an hour today, just enough to receive guests."
Bell used [Information Insight] to lightly scan and discovered that this was a low-level bard.
He seemed to be no stranger to Edu, and that was probably true. Edu had always wanted to be a bard. He came here every two days. He basically looked familiar to everyone who often stayed in the bard guild.
.
"Hey, boy Edu, what are you doing here this time~"
He leisurely made himself a cup of tea. This drink brought by the pandas many years ago has become an indispensable daily drink in Cangxing City.
He took a sip of hot tea, with a satisfied expression on his face.
"Come and join the Bard."
"Ha?!"
When Edu said one sentence, the hand holding the tea cup of the front desk boy suddenly shook, and the hot tea spilled into his hand, which stung him.
But at this time, the front desk guy ignored the pain in his hands and rummaged through the cabinets, and finally took out a piece of parchment from under the table.
"Chenghui, the joining fee is five silver coins!"
As soon as he spread the paper and handed the quill to Edu's hand, he knocked his whole body on the table, as if he wouldn't get up if he didn't sign today.
Edu knew that he wanted to get a share of his joining fee.
But Edu, who had already realized something, quickly signed his name.
The moment he finished writing, the boy at the front desk jumped up like an electric shock, and with a hand speed faster than a thief, he took down the five silver coins lined up on the table, for fear that Edu would regret it.<

"Welcome to the Bard Guild. Next, you will receive fifteen days of introductory guidance. We guarantee that three days of the introductory guidance within the fifteen days will be led by intermediate bards.
At the same time, for the next three months, you can come here for free to participate in career assessment at the end of each month. I hope you can join the job as soon as possible."
The guy at the front desk who collected the money became very enthusiastic, and he quickly introduced the relevant benefits of the guild to Edu.
Although this dilapidated bard's guild doesn't offer many benefits, the only ones that are attractive to Bell are the few bookshelves on the second floor of the guild, which members of the guild can read for free.
But Edu himself is very happy. He is already discussing with the front desk guy about the introductory guidance in the afternoon.
While waiting, Bell asked Edu to take him upstairs to read a book. While learning about the world, he continued to learn human writing.
There are not many books on the second floor. Most of them are essays by bards and travel notes of some old bards.
There are also more than ten songs from a bard city. These lyrics are simple and simple. They are either songs praising the gathering or folk tunes. Using magic to stimulate these songs can only achieve a single effect.
In these essays and books recording songs, what is valuable is not the words or melodies of the songs, but the various bards' perceptions of the use of magic when singing.
For ordinary bards, these insights on the use of magic are like lightning protection notes left by predecessors, which have an advanced guiding role.
"But...I can't say."
Unlike Edu, who watched with great interest, Bell found that these bards' use of magic seemed a bit fishy.
The experiences they recorded are full of magic that is difficult to mobilize. They have always emphasized that one must use emotions and one's own magic to coordinate the magic in nature and blend and resonate with those magic powers.
But in Bell's several singing experiences, he was able to clearly feel the flow of magic during the singing process. At the same time, he could also use his emotions to quickly resonate with the magic and exert the magical effect that the song should have.
The whole process is obviously not as difficult as these bards described.
"Am I gifted? No, I always feel that there is something wrong with the methods recorded by these bards."
When Bell sang with Edu before, it was not as difficult to resonate with the magic as described in the bard's notes.
Bell, who was a little confused, decided to write down all the songs here first, and then watch Edu's induction training in the afternoon.
Edu has always been his window to understand the bard profession. Now that Bell has become an apprentice bard, he wants to see how Edu performs alone as an entry-level bard.
At the same time, Bell was also curious about the level of other bards.
"Little Guitou, it depends on your performance."
"I'll do my best, Mr. Bell."
With a book as a companion, this afternoon is not difficult, and it passes in a blink of an eye.
In the afternoon, the prepared front desk boy led Edu to the backyard of the Bard Guild, which was a simple training ground.
