"It seems that I have found the wrong person. Professor Manning is very reliable."
Seeing Professor Heinke's appearance, Shade knew that his wait had finally come to fruition.
"No, sorry, I don't recognize this symbol."
Professor Heinke said, except for the abnormal expression on his face when he saw the symbol unpreparedly, there was no clue that he was lying.
"It's such a pity."
Shade nodded and took back the notebook, then put his hand into his pocket and took out an envelope:
"One hundred pounds."
Almost a quarter of his savings.
"What's the meaning?"
The professor asked in surprise, and Xia De stopped beating around the bush and said straightforwardly:
"Professor, I'm looking for a hermitage."
"Oh, no, no, I don't know what the Priory is. Young man, you really have the wrong person."
As he was about to stand up and leave, Shade did not stop him, but whispered:
"The ancient wind can blow from ancient times to the present. The organization hidden in the lost history will indeed not reveal its identity at will. But Professor, I heard that as long as it does not conflict with the purpose of the Priory, they are very willing to do so.
Do you think the rules of the monastery have changed after so many years of trading with strangers, spreading your knowledge and getting paid?"
Professor Heinke ignored him and walked straight to the study door.
Shade sat at the desk with his back to him:
"Professor, not only am I looking for the Priory, the Priory also needs the information I have. I don't know if you can get in touch with those ring warlocks."
Contacting this organization will definitely reveal his identity, and Shade is already prepared. But he is not worried, on the one hand, because the other party is definitely more afraid of being exposed. If Shade wants to run, he can just jump on the train with the cat in his arms, but hiding
The Light Guide Club, which has been supported by the Order for many years, cannot escape; on the other hand, according to Miss Feliana and Shade's preliminary understanding, this ancient organization should be trustworthy.
Although there are still risks, there are risks in everything you do, and Shade can bear it.
Professor Heink stood in front of the door holding the doorknob, without opening the door or turning around to talk to Shade.
Shade was not in a hurry to urge him, so silence fell in the study. After three minutes, the old professor, who was probably tired of standing, said and sighed:
"Okay, Mr. Hamilton, I can help you contact the members of the monastery, but the location must be decided by us."
"They have people in Tobesk? That's great. You can decide the location, but you can't go to too remote a place, and the time can't be too late. I also have to consider my own safety."
"I think that's no problem. I'll give you a message tonight and I'll send a letter to your address."
The professor said, of course Shade agreed. After all, he didn't have time this afternoon.
Today is Saturday, the weekly group meeting time. On Saturday last week, the five people in the group took the summer exam. After the exam, the five people wanted to relax after the exam, so they didn’t talk about anything, but
In fact, everyone has nothing to share.
After all, the security situation in recent weeks has been really good.
This Saturday, the most important thing was of course Shade's promotion to second grade. According to the plan, he came to Dr. Schneider's clinic earlier than before and submitted the mercury vial to the college through the poem manuscript page.
While Luvia, Priest August and Dorothy arrived one after another, the college sent a reply to Shade, recognizing the value of the relic and granting him five credits, allowing him to successfully obtain 15 credits within a week.
Although he had known that this would be the result, Xia De couldn't help but feel happy after hearing the news.
Then, just like when he enrolled, the college gave him a notice for book fees and tuition fees. The total fee for the second year was 325 pounds, which is of course a discounted price. Otherwise, just the book fee would be more than this price.
Already.
The money was paid for by the special contribution award jointly received by the group. Shade received 25% of the 1,000 pounds from the award. And because the doctor had already made the first payment, he was included in the award.
There is still about 200 pounds left. Now that he has paid the money with the special contribution award, it means that he still owes the rest of the group a total of about 125 pounds.
When he first enrolled in school, the tuition fee that Shade had to pay was 50 pounds, and the money was lent to him by the team. Later, after he found the [Fake Philosopher's Stone], the doctor waived the debt for him. A period of time passed.
Half a month later, the price of tuition fees was higher, but Xia De was no longer in the same predicament as when he first came here. He could afford the money.
But as a result, his savings dropped sharply again, and he still had more than 200 pounds available. Considering the transaction with the Guiding Light Monastery, Shade once again felt that he was still short of money.
Similar to the first-year courses, the second-year courses are also basic courses for ring wizards and are combined with the core courses of the History School. There are still a lot of courses, but judging from the names, most of them are extensions of the courses that need to be studied in the first grade.

There are a total of 21 courses, including the "Introduction to Ancient Occult Schools" course, which introduces the manifestations of occultism from the era before the Witch Era to the Sixth Age where ring magicians live. And the ancient language proficiency course,
Dorothy didn't start learning until she was in the fourth grade. Since Shard was in the history school, the training plan required that the second graders should be proficient.
The focus of different colleges will be very different after the first grade. For example, the two important subjects of alchemy and potions have little relevance to the training direction of the history college, so although alchemy and potions must continue to be studied
, but the two courses have been merged, and the difficulty is much lower than that of the School of Mechanical Engineering and the School of Chemistry.
These courses are only compulsory courses. After reaching the second year, more elective courses that require money will also be open to Shade. The parchment recording the elective courses is kept by Shade himself, and he can apply to the college through a doctor at any time.
.
Professor Garcia's "Folding Space", which he will take next week, does not exist in the list. This course was originally not open to low-level warlocks, and Shade received special permission from Professor Garcia to take the class.
The college probably guessed that Shade would obtain credits by purchasing relics and handing them in, and he would be able to achieve his goal by the weekend, so the books were already prepared.
The textbooks for the first grade are also the textbooks for the second grade, so although Shade has more courses for the second grade, the textbooks sent this time are fewer than last time, only more than forty books.
The five people worked together to arrange the books neatly so that Shade could take them with him when he left in the evening.
In addition to Shade, Priest August and Dorothy also applied for new elective courses from the college as supplementary learning content in the second half of the year. The priest chose "Extraction and Processing of Hallucinogen Toxins", and Dorothy
Then I chose "Mystery of the Soul: Elemental Impact".
The purple-eyed fortune teller has no matters that need to be handled by the college this week. Doctor Schneider was informed that the "summer off-campus practice" for formal students of the college mentioned to the doctor by the Student Administration Office last week has been postponed to the second half of August.
.
Although it has been two weeks since the incident in Tobesk, after discussion, the college still does not trust this city. Considering the overall security issue, not only St. Byrons, Zalas Literary College and Serkeses
The Medical College of Higher Education has also postponed the off-campus practical content that was originally supposed to be conducted in early August to the second half of this month.
This annual practice will only continue if nothing else happens in Tobesk and the surrounding area.
