After having such a fuss together and having delicious food to liven up the atmosphere, the magicians chatted much more lively.
Five men and one woman, six young magicians, plus Gretel and Bernard, sat around the table and chatted while eating. Of course, only the magicians were chatting. Bernard sat on one side, holding two
The golden roasted geese - the two big geese that Gretel picked out, the remains after taking out the foie gras - click, click, click, chewing.
The envious gaze shifted from the barbarians to Gretel. Most of these people were from well-known families. Although everyone did not see clearly what Gretel had just shown, at least they all understood: This is a person that no one has ever seen before.
of magic.
As a level 1 mage who can create his own magic, Gretel's future is limitless.
Grete allowed them to focus their fire with their gazes, smiled slightly, and never spoke. If he was facing Elder Erwin, Elder Wood, Pastor Matthew, etc., he would share this B-super magic. But these
Magician, can sharing it with them be of any use?
He pretended not to see everyone's eyes. Everyone was envious for a moment and then restrained themselves: no knowledge does not require a price, not to mention, it is a magician's unique magic. The Magic Council's protection of these new magics is extremely strict, and any
Anyone who wants to take advantage of others will be hunted down by the Parliament at all costs——
There was a moment of silence. Master Anthony, the highest ranking person present, cleared his throat, picked up his wine glass, and was the first to speak:
"First of all, we congratulate Kerien on his successful breakthrough and becoming a level 2 mage——"
Grete raised a glass of water. The other five people each raised a glass of bright red wine. Bernard raised the huge beer glass in front of him, signaled to each other, and each took a sip. Corian smiled and nodded to everyone.
Two toasts:
"Then, congratulations to Gretel for his paper being successfully published in "Arcana"."
There was another round of toasting. Grete accepted everyone's congratulations with a smile. He turned a blind eye to the fact that he drank water and others drank. He took over the responsibility of toasting and raised his third glass:
"I wish everyone can publish papers smoothly, achieve good results, and successfully complete the training course——"
"This is too difficult..."
"How can it be so easy to publish a paper..."
Wails spread everywhere. The knife and fork in Anthony's hand trembled, making an unpleasant noise on the plate; the wine glass in Corian's hand just reached his lips, and his hand shook, causing a splash of wine; Meyer
Si flopped down on the table:
"ah……"
"I don't know what to write yet..."
"If this continues, I will be sent back..."
"I want to stay in Nevis..."
Gretel was at a loss. He looked left and right. Except for the two teenagers who lived in the local area, everyone else had bitter looks on their faces. Gretel tried hard to recall for a moment and confirmed that the teacher had not said anything in class. After-school books
The library had not heard any relevant information, so they could only ask in a low voice:
"Will it be sent back?"
In this training class, if you fail the assessment, you will be returned to your place of origin? I have never heard of it!
Could it be that he taught it at the beginning of class before he came?
"Of course you're not afraid, Gretel..." Sitting on the seat diagonally opposite, Miles gave him a plaintive look:
"Level 1, only level 1! You can publish papers in "Arcane" at level 1. With your qualifications, any company will ask for it... We can't do that. It is said that among the trainees this time, the Magic Council only
Recruit one-fifth of the people. After the training class is over, what if we can’t find a job at the headquarters and don’t go back to the local area?”
find a job?
Do magicians still need to find a job?
Gretel traveled less than a year and could not be a mage but could still be a doctor. Nodmark never thought that he might face unemployment after becoming an official magician. It would be fine if the apprentice could not break through. He would not be a formal magician.
Are they all raised by the parliament?
Be it Master Gehrman, Master Elliot, or Master Karan who presides over the Mage Tower, they all rely on the Mage Tower, live in the Mage Tower, and rely on the Mage Tower for research resources.
Although the necromancer Lin En does not live in the mage tower, looking at him leisurely and leisurely, it seems that he never has to worry about money...
Gretel continued to ask. On the left and right, on the opposite side, the young magicians sighed. Anthony kindly explained to him:
"There are generally three ways out for low-level magicians like us. One is to study in the local magic tower. Within a certain period of time, for example, the time limit for upgrading from level 1 to level 2 is 3 years, and the time limit for upgrading from level 2 to level 3 is 5 years. When the time comes, you will not be able to upgrade.
Once you go up, you can no longer stay. After reaching level 3, you need to serve the mage tower for a certain number of years;"
So it’s good to be able to enter the headquarters mage tower. If you start in an out-of-town mage tower, it will be difficult to change jobs and go to other places when your level is low. It’s even harder to change jobs to come to the parliament headquarters.
.Gret nodded to show understanding.
"The second is to find another job at the Magic Council headquarters. The Magic Council provides many positions, such as copying scrolls, making magic items, and making potions;
Such as registering the magician level, redeeming magic and other transactional tasks;
For example, various mage towers, various colleges, and various magic organizations all have some research work that requires manpower..."
This sounds good. Just as Grete's eyes lit up, Master Kerien beside him was already sighing:
"The problem is that making things is quite hard, and even if you work for ten or eight years, you may not be able to make any progress; research work - basically no low-level mages are recruited, and high-level mages lead their disciples to do the work, administrative work? Like
Since I have no background, I basically don’t have to think about it..."
Is it the difference between entering a factory and working on an assembly line, and taking the civil service exam, and entering a university or graduate school? Oh, I forgot, there is no public exam in this world. Gretel silently crossed out the option of office work: "What about the third one?"
"The third thing is to find your own solution! Be an adventurer, accept missions from the Magic Council, be a family mage supported by a big noble... all of these are fine. But to be honest, having a stable job
, it’s better not to take this road.”
And become a court magician, join the army, or be employed by a big businessman. For example, the man who used magic tricks to draw promotional posters in front of the theater a few days ago. But it is not clear whether he is employed on a long-term basis or does odd jobs occasionally.
…
Gretel nodded very understandingly. He also understood Anthony's evaluation: As an intellectual, you should try your best to work within the system, right?
It was the same in my previous life. Whether I was a doctor or studied medicine, I either went to a public hospital or went to a university.
Go directly to a private school after leaving school?
Congratulations, you have missed academic development for the rest of your life.
Moreover, the world in front of us pays more attention to academic development. The higher the level of a magician, the higher the status; if the level cannot be raised, the power and status will remain the same for a lifetime. Want to upgrade?
The broadest and smoothest road is to enter a certain magic organization, such as a mage tower in the headquarters, or a certain magic academy, and continue to study magic...
“So how do you find a research job?”
Grete poured wine for the magicians at the table and sincerely asked for advice. There was a moment of silence at the table, and then five or six people rushed to speak:
"Gretel, your words must be fine..."
"But it would be best to have more essays... Well, you already have one "Arcana", so you shouldn't have to worry. But a few more essays would definitely be better."
"By the way, you'd better submit a paper to the Magic Council and get academic points and academic ratings. With this thing, it will be easier to find a job at the council headquarters, especially teaching and research jobs."
"You have to be quick. The training courses and the magic academy graduate at the end of June. Usually, various organizations come to select candidates in March and April. It's already February now..."
Understood, the recruitment activities for fresh graduates will start soon. There are many positions during this period and the conditions are good. It will be difficult to find a job after the recruitment season.
However, does the recruitment season for the Magic Council start in March or April?
In previous lives, the autumn recruitment for fresh graduates usually started in July of the previous year... So, is it really because this world has a small population that the number of magicians is also small?
