Although the sound of eating the apple was very small, it still attracted the cat who was taking a nap. When Luvia ended the deep kiss with Shade, Shade actually saw little Mia appearing at the door of the bedroom and looked inside.
He glanced at it, then rushed into the room and slept on his stomach on the windowsill of the bedroom.
It probably thought that Shade was hiding something good from it.
"Is there any news about the new chosen ones? As I recall, we still have two special coins left."
Shade asked again, and Luvia shook her head:
"Didn't I say that after the incident in the Randall Valley is over, let's take a break for a few months. At least wait until spring passes before we start the adventure of the next story. Look at what you look like. Get well first."
"I think I should emphasize again that my illness should be considered cured. How about we go to the city for a walk in a few days? There is no spring scenery in Tobesk in my memory."
"It's also foggy in the city in the spring, but it's quite nice outside the city. I suggest you get ready for the riding competition that Dorothy mentioned just now. I really hope to see you win the championship."
Today, Tobesk has a rare good weather. The sun shines warmly on the body. The golden sunshine shines on Luvia's face from the window, and her purple eyes seem to be filled with inexplicable light.
Father Augustus and Dr. Schneider arrived quickly, but Dorothy, who had gone home to get her papers, was the last one to arrive.
The doctor and the priest were also happy to see that Shade's physical condition had improved significantly. However, during the meeting, the other four people still asked Shade to stay in bed covered with a quilt. This was like the doctor who was seriously injured after the Lakeview Manor incident last summer.
treatment.
"There are really a lot of good things happening in the group recently."
Dr. Schneider, who returned to Tobesk after a long journey, was in good spirits. He waved the team's current status report that was about to be submitted to the college and announced to everyone:
"I have been promoted to the 7th level, Shade and Anat have been promoted to the 6th level, and Priest August has also reached the 3rd level. I think the academy will be very surprised."
The doctor and Luvia were promoted because of their experiences in the Randall Valley, while Priest Augustus was promoted because of the angel finger bones that Shade brought back.
The old priest seemed to be in a good mood. He and the doctor were sitting together on the sofa brought in from the living room, wiping his pipe as usual: Lan
"Look, you are all in the middle ring, but I am still the only one in the low ring."
"Priest, it should be said that you have all been promoted, and I am the only one who is still in the fifth ring."
Dorothy corrected from the side, but she really looked a little unhappy because of this incident.
The doctor continued:
"In addition, every spring semester, correspondence student groups can apply to the college for an additional 'Spring Adventurer Project Scholarship', which is a bonus used to encourage correspondence students to leave their residence for short adventures. The groups that apply each year are about
One-third can get this money, and this year, I have received notification that my application has been fortunately approved. The bonus has not yet reached me, but it should be in the past few weeks. According to our advance
It was agreed that I, as the applicant, would get an extra copy, and Louisa would help us write the final report and get an extra copy as well."
Although the college generally does not allow correspondence students to leave the residence for a long time for the sake of safety and confidentiality, there will be exceptions every spring, allowing correspondence students to go out for a "walk". After all, the ring magician is not a pure scholar profession. Therefore.
, "Spring Adventure Activities for Correspondence Students", just like the "Off-Campus Practical Activities for Current Students" in the summer, are regular seasonal college activities.
Xia De also heard that last year he was unable to apply for this scholarship because there were not enough people in the group, which made the doctor very disappointed.
"It is also important to note that the college's investigation of the identity and background of correspondence students has already reached our area."
When talking about this topic, the doctor became obviously more serious.
Priest August also temporarily put down his pipe. Dorothy frowned slightly, Luvia narrowed her eyes, and Shade touched Mia:
"What time is it specifically? I can postpone my outing plan appropriately."
This refers to visiting Miss Gold.
"It should be next week. The college said that I will be notified one day in advance, but it will probably be on the weekend. The person leading the team this time is a professor from the School of Chemistry, but I did not ask for a specific name."
The doctor looked at each person in turn: Lan
"Although this investigation is mainly due to the academic spy Sir Priscilla's incident that caused a lot of fuss last year, we cannot relax our vigilance... You know what I am referring to."
Everyone nodded, and Dorothy asked:
"During investigations in other areas some time ago, has the college caught any other academic spies?"
"This investigation was carried out simultaneously by the three major colleges. In January, Zalas Liberal Arts College discovered a group that was completely corrupted by a cult. The problem was quite serious. Although the matter has been resolved now, next year Zalas Liberal Arts College will
The admissions will definitely be more stringent than in previous years.”
Dr. Schneider said, but it has nothing to do with them:
"This is the most serious thing this investigation has discovered so far, or in other words, this is the most serious problem among correspondence students in the past two decades, more serious than academic espionage."
"Zalas Academy of Literature certainly didn't expect such an unexpected gain." Lan
Priest August commented, and the doctor nodded:
"Over at Serkses Higher Medical School, we discovered two cases of correspondence students colluding with current students to resell the college's assets. As you know, the college sold us potions and alchemy materials, especially those in the courses.
The price of the materials used will be lower than those on the market, so some people will take advantage of it to make profits. If you ask me, this kind of person deserves to be caught. Either don't do this kind of thing, or if you do it, you must not be discovered, and you will be caught.
If you find out, you are incompetent and you should be punished."
There seemed to be some problems with what the doctor said, but no one pointed it out.
"Will I be fired?"
Shade asked with great interest.
"No, this is not a matter of principle. But repeating the grade is certain, and the group you belong to will be banned from recruiting students. For ring warlocks who aspire to a higher level, this is a disaster."
After all, not everyone can have multiple channels to acquire knowledge like Xia De. The systematic training system of the three major colleges has been accumulated for thousands of years. It is separated from the courses provided by the colleges. Even if one's own level is improved, the comprehensive knowledge of
The rationality of sex and future planning will also be greatly affected.
"Then there shouldn't be anything wrong with our school, right?"
This is Luvia asking a question. The doctor shook his head:
"How can it be completely fine? However, it is not a big deal. I heard from my acquaintances in the college that the Randall Valley group knew that there were students sneaking out without reporting it. The 1854 records of all the members of the group
All grades for the school year will be dropped by one grade."
The corner of Shade's mouth trembled. Although Miss Daniste promised not to punish Amelia, she did not say that she would not punish other people involved.
"Also, the investigation team found a very special ring warlock who concealed his true origin. The other party was a team on the Western Islands off the west coast of the Old World. Sorry, I didn't remember the name of the awkward island. Hidden.
He is already a fifth-level Ring Warlock. He has no problem with it. He just doesn't want the academy to know that his long-dead biological father is related to the illegal Ring Warlock group, and his father's name is still on the wanted list of the Zhengshen Church.
superior."
Having said this, the doctor shook his head slightly:
"So, everyone has secrets that they don't want others to know. These secrets may not necessarily harm other people, so they must be kept tightly... Do you understand?" Lan
"Yes."
"clear."
"certainly."
"I see."
"In short, everyone just pay attention. The college will conduct most of the background checks on us before the professors meet with us. The face-to-face interviews with us can be completed in about half an hour each. This is not a big deal.
So don’t worry too much.”
Although he said this, everyone in the group was worried about what would happen by then.
Last week's group meeting was not completed because the doctor was away and Shade was seriously ill, so there were quite a lot of things that needed to be dealt with this week. Even though Dr. Schneider didn't want to disturb Shade's rest, this meeting still went on until after four o'clock in the afternoon.

Except for Dorothy, the four people who have completed the promotion have to consider their own thaumaturgy and course adjustments. Now it is the second half of the Wind Rises Moon, which means that the semester has entered the middle, and the professors' elective courses have begun to start one after another. Apply for courses
The process is not simple either.
For Shade, he chose the advanced course "Introduction to Mysteries" taught by Garcia. As for Miss Denister, she would take the initiative to discuss elective courses with Shade when she had time. After all, the librarian
But very busy.
After the meeting, the sunset even appeared in the sky outside the window. Priest August, Luvia and Dorothy all saw that the doctor wanted to talk to Shade in private, so they left respectively.
When the door closed downstairs, Dr. Schneider took out the large black book with a flat skull inlaid on the surface from the box he carried with him. This was the "Book of the Demon of Malbas", which Shade had read from the Stone Mirror Demon-
One of the trophies obtained from Goethe.
"I have finished reading this book. The content in it is indeed very useful to you, especially the parts about soul contracts and demon curses. The academy will not teach us these easily. But my suggestion to you is,
You can read the knowledge in it, but don’t read too much at once, and don’t show this book to anyone other than you and me. When you are not reading this book, put it in a silver container.
I suggest you go to Old John’s to customize one.”
The doctor said cautiously, and when returning the book to Shade, he also gave him a notebook.
