Chapter 96 Late Disembarkation
I have to say that as long as you don’t have to do with magic, the prices in this world are quite cheap.
In the end, Siwei did not accept the free treat from the tavern owner, but even so, he only spent four silver coins for the dessert after the meal.
After dinner, the group strolled the street for a while.
Xiwei bought daily necessities and trinkets for Alice and Teo. Although he wanted to give Alice some, the girl refused this time.
The helpless Sivi finally had to buy some candies in the candy house called "Sweet Treasure" and gave Alice a portion. Only then did he take the girls back to the college with satisfaction.
Xiwei, who had been shopping for most of the day, was planning to go to the alchemy room of the college to see if he could buy some alchemy materials at a low price, but when he passed by the corridor of the middle hall on the third floor, he found a group of students gathering there, arguing loudly about something.
He came over curiously and found that two students, one big and one small, were surrounded in the middle.
"I didn't lie! I definitely saw the headless tycoon lord last night!"
The little boy was stammering his neck, his round face like a goose egg was flushed, but his face was full of grievance and dissatisfaction.
"Stop kidding. There are so many people in the academy, but you only saw it alone? Or are you still wandering outside during the curfew?" The big boy laughed with disdain: "If you want to attract attention, you don't need to say such a lie that can be broken with just one poke. Isn't it easier to take off your clothes and run around the castle? Or is this your nature?" He grimaced at the little boy: "Hey, Peter, who loves to lie."
I don’t know if it was because of the man’s words or his grimace, and everyone onlookers laughed.
Sivi frowned. This behavior that was already almost bullying was not a good phenomenon in the academy. As a teacher - even if it was just temporary - it cannot be spread.
Just when Siwei was about to stand up, another person took the lead in doing what he was going to do.
"It's not good to laugh at others at will!" Sophia separated the crowd and walked into the middle, with a serious expression on her face.
"What... wait, isn't this Lange?" When the big boy saw Sophia, the disdain on his face became even more obvious: "I plan to apply for the Magic Premier League exam this year. Lange, you shouldn't be in the first grade, right?"
"That has nothing to do with what you are now." Sophia's face turned a little ugly. But even so, she said without any weakness: "Is sarcastic about first-year students what you should do as a third-year student?"
The round-faced boy looked at Sophia who was talking to him gratefully, and his lips squirmed a few times, as if he wanted to say something. But in the end he still didn't say anything.
"Oh, I'm really embarrassed." The big three-year-old spread his hands without any regrets. Instead, he showed a more evil smile on his face: "Then let me talk about Sophia Lange, who was the same class as me (acent) as me." He looked at Sophia, as if he was staring at a viper of a frog, and said slowly: "It was born with the name of Lange. But his magical talent is only a little better than that of ordinary people, and he can only stay on the passing line and barely be fired. Maybe even that score is given by the professors for your surname... Are you really the descendant of the famous magic family? Or... are you a mud breed?"
"Stop!" Sophia finally couldn't help but shout, and the magic power in her body began to flow with her will.
The big man was not panicked at all in his three years. He had long become a beginner mage and was not afraid of Sophia, who was just a mage apprentice. Instead, he also acted in a fighting posture.
"What are you doing!"
Seeing that the other party was talking more and more, and finally both sides even developed to fight in the corridor, Xiwei finally decided to intervene. He first let the students around him disperse and told them not to continue surrounding here, and then he walked between the two sides that were confronting each other.
"Professor Adrick, please get out of the way." Sophia said calmly. If it weren't for the lip that had just been bitten, no one would have been able to connect her now with the past. However, there was an unconcealed anger in her words: "Have peace of mind. I won't do anything here."
Xiwei sighed secretly. Of course he could understand the girl's meaning. Her surname and bloodline were insulted, so the girl could not sit still. She probably wanted to challenge the other party.
However, reality is not a novel. No matter how high the will is, the gap between the two is too huge. Will is just a joke.
Xiwei could clearly feel that the gap between the girl and the other party had reached this point. So he naturally would not let the girl hit the stone with her eggs.
"Are you the new professor who has been circulating among students?" But the big boy's interest seemed to shift from Sophia to Siwei. He looked at Siwei up and down. Then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It seems nothing special."
After obtaining the Starry Ray Robe, Xiwei's original hidden robe was honorably retired. Since she was a top student who was qualified to apply for the Magic Jin exam, it was not strange that the other party could vaguely detect Xiwei's rank.
However, Xiwei could see that this big guy is a hedgehog and he will prick anyone he encounters.
But not everyone can pride in this world. Xiwei intends to let him know this deeply.
Not only that, because Xi Weiguang is indeed just a beginner-level mage when he looks at the level, so a small number of people in his three years do not like him very much, and even some rumors that are not good for him are circulating.
There were low-grade students on the street who told Xiwei about this and he was worried about how to establish a power. As a result, this guy bumped into him. It has to be said that it was too timely.
"Since Colf thinks so, I will make an exception to hold a duel with you." He ignored the whispering students around him and said calmly: "Time, place... well, the location seems to be only the duel arena specified by the school, so the time is up to you. But in advance, if I win, you have to apologize to Sophia Lange, how about it?"
"Time is now." The big student said without hesitation: "As for the conditions that come later, you should change it. I will never apologize to the Mud Babian who insults the name of the magician."
His arrogant look made Sivi, who wanted to pretend to be a good man, also have the urge to slap him hard.
"If that's the case, then let's change it." His tone became a little cold: "In the duel, no matter what kind of magic you can use, as long as you don't kill the other party, what about that?"
"Is there any magic that cannot be used in the previous duel?" Kolf's face was full of sneer. The three years of nearly invincible experience in the same level made him feel that he had no chance of losing.
"That's all right."
Then the two of them moved to the duel arena together, and the students around them who were dispersed by Xiwei also followed.
In a place where there are very few entertainment programs, they can only see a duel that lasts a long time, so they will not miss this opportunity. What's more, the two of them in the duel are the top three-year-old Colf and the new professor.
But to their shock, the game ended in less than five seconds.
The moment the notary announced the start of the duel, Sivi did not sing spells, did not cast spells, and even showed no sign of using a magic weapon. However, Colf, who was still confident a second before the duel, screamed and fell to the ground and twitched all over.
Faced with this strange scene, all the students in the audience, including the professors who were notaries, were stunned.
In fact, Sivi did not intend to defeat the other party in this way at the beginning. However, since Colf felt it was interesting to trample on others' self-esteem and honor, and refused to apologize to the person he was hurt, then Sivi had no need to care about this shameless guy. It became his goal to solve the other party in the fastest and most deterrent way.
"Only by being able to realize the pain of suffering can you be qualified to impose pain on others... I'll just turn it over, and I've fainted from the pain?! I wasted my expression."
After an instant pain and fraud, Xiwei was planning to make a poss before the others came back to their senses and said some decisive lines, but found that the other party had foamed at the mouth and lost consciousness, as if he had punched the cotton, and he couldn't help but feel an indescribable depression...
This is the consequence of always being pampered and not being able to adapt to combat and pain. It is also a common problem for mainstream magicians who are hiding behind the wizard entourage.
After all, the pain fraud launched by Xiwei is not the highest level. He has been injured in the dungeon and is confident. If he is suffering from this level of pain, he can definitely hold on for a long time, and he can even have the energy to cast the spell.
Anyway, after reminding the notary that the duel was over, he left the duel without waiting for others to congratulate him on victory. Sophia did not come to watch the duel. Sivi felt that she should be in the library, so she planned to check out the girl's situation.
After this duel, Xiwei's popularity has dropped slightly due to the passage of time. However, what they mentioned most this time was not Xiwei's rich and interesting courses, but his unpredictable practical ability.
Well, judging from the results, Xiwei wanted to establish his power, or it was not only possible, but the results were good. At least no one dared to continue to gossip at Xiwei's level in the third year. To be continued...
