Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 194 ·Prologue (first update on the shelves)
  At 9 o'clock in the morning...

dong dong dong~
  Alina arrived as scheduled on the top floor of the Administrative Department of Undine City, where silence was the main theme, and knocked on the door of the innermost room politely and normatively.

"Please come in."

Almost at the same time, four uniform voices belonging to different people gave calm but emotionless responses through the door.

Finally, after playing with the imitation pocket watch in her hand that had been replaced, Alina calmed down the slightly nervous emotions in her heart and calmly reached out to touch the magic circle in the center of the door, lifting the special magic restriction attached to the door.

creak~

As the blue magic circle on the door absorbed the last trace of magic output from the visitor, the originally closed door opened on its own, revealing a slightly dim scene in the room, as well as the picture placed in the middle of the room by the window. , an exquisite black long table with a retro style and engraved with complex patterns, and four figures sitting at the top of the long table, each with a different image and temperament.

"Good day, Alina."

An old man with gray hair and a kind face, wearing a gold-rimmed cloak embroidered with waves and snowflakes, was the first to break the brief silence again and gave a greeting.

"Good day, Lord Hobert."

Repliing a reserved smile just right, Alina immediately retracted her gaze that briefly rested on the other person's face, lifted up her skirt, slightly bent her knees, and solemnly saluted the kind old man who spoke first.

The old man known as Hobert nodded slightly, then withdrew his scrutinizing gaze, gracefully picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip of the tea in the cup.

Seeing that the Water Sage had no intention of adding any additional explanation, Alina turned around with relief, looked at the other three people, and saluted and greeted them one by one.

"sit down."

After the greetings were completed, the Water Sage gently put down the teacup and made an invitation gesture to Alina, who was standing meticulously by the door, to officially start this semi-private and semi-formal conversation.

As the magic restriction on the door was reactivated, the five people simultaneously put down the cups they held and opened the sealed document bags placed on their right sides.

"Have you finished reading it all?"

After a few minutes, the Water Sage gently put down the paper in his hand, looked around at the other figures in the conference room, and asked with a kind expression but a serious tone.

The remaining four people nodded lightly without any unnecessary words or so-called eye contact.

"Then, the current leader of the 32nd Sage Assistant in Olivia Continent, the first Sage Assistant in the East District of Wind, Miss Feng Suzulan, Alina Christo, as a participant in the whole matter Reader, do you need to add anything to the content mentioned in the report?”

Slightly putting away the kind smile on his face, the Water Sage looked indifferently at the blond woman sitting at the end of the long table and asked solemnly.

"No."

After picking up the file at hand and browsing it roughly, Alina responded with the same indifferent expression.

The Water Sage nodded slightly, then withdrew his gaze and continued to ask in a deep voice: "According to the report submitted by the Arbiter Department, in the process of calming down the turbulent incident in Carsont Prison, did you use magic beyond ordinary taboos? The special forbidden magic caused obvious damage to area 30 and surrounding areas?"

"Yes."

Without hesitation or unnecessary excuses, Alina admitted with a calm but firm expression.

"What is that power, and where did you get it?"

A mature lady with bright red hair who is responsible for controlling military issues on the mainland. She sits on the left hand side of the Water Sage. The Fire Sage Grace Osmond gathered her red curly hair that hung casually and asked solemnly.

"I am the last descendant of [Card]."

As before, Alina answered very concisely.

"As far as I know, there are no other relevant people on the Olivia continent who can use the [card] ability."

Fire Sage Glaris nodded lightly in understanding, and skillfully switched the order of the documents in her hand for further confirmation.

"I taught myself, Lord Osmund." Carefully looking at the normal expressions of the sages sitting at the top, Alina secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then added with a correct attitude. , "You know, I have been to the Forbidden Library in Nome City, where I found some books that can be used as a reference to make cards."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Water Sage looked at the two old men opposite him who were about the same age as him: "Is that so? Vader?"

"Yes, there are indeed some books in our forbidden library that record the ability of past users of [cards] to use [cards]. All academic committee members and library administrators can testify to this."

Earth Sage Vader gently pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and answered calmly.

"Okay," with a slight nod, the Water Sage turned his attention to the lady next to him again, "Next question, Glaris."

"Miss Christo, someone claimed that you used a simplified version of the spell and successfully used the [Time Stasis] magic when trying to eliminate Xiela. Is this information true?"

Glaris flipped through the papers in her hand in cooperation and continued to ask questions.

"Yes."

Alina still answered simply, without any more additions or even explanations.

"Then can you tell us where your spells and the carriers that activate time magic come from?"

Fire Sage Glaris suppressed the slight shock in her heart and asked further questions without changing her attitude. "It comes from another teacher of mine, and the artifact that carries the magic of time was also given to me by him." Without looking at the different expressions of the sages, Alina gently picked up the tea cup in front of her. , took a sip of the warm black tea in the cup, and then slowly said as if under a strong psychological struggle, "Because this involves some irresistible rules, I'm sorry, please forgive me for not being able to reveal to you who Teacher related.”

The several sages sitting at the top exchanged glances with each other, and finally discussed a suitable solution with the gentle downward gesture of the water sage. The fire sage came forward again and picked up the quilt. He handed over the rather old khaki pocket watch in advance and asked with a slightly gentle attitude:

"Your identity certificate also comes from that teacher?"

"Correct."

She also responded with a slightly relaxed smile, and Alina nodded slightly.

"Then are you still mentally affected by Xila? Symptoms include dizziness, auditory hallucinations, frequent distractions, and trance."

The Water Sage browsed through the documents in his hand again, put on his usual kind smile again, and asked with concern.

"Not yet, but until I officially leave the review period, I will not relax my vigilance about my physical and mental conditions."

Alina smiled gratefully at the Water Sage, and at the same time did not dare to relax at all in answering.

"Very good, very cautious." The Water Sage praised him, then looked around at the remaining three colleagues who nodded in unison, put down the documents in their hands, put away his kind smile, and looked solemnly at the person sitting upright. The blond woman at the end asked again in a deep voice, "Last question, if you are still qualified to be the first leader of the Sage Assistant in the future, after this lesson, do you think you are qualified for this position?"

"of course."

Alina answered matter-of-factly.

"So, can you give us a more detailed reason?"

Facing the younger man below who looked like he had a chance to win, which was different from the previous blind obedience, several sages exchanged glances again, and finally asked in unison.

"First, judging from my past qualifications, I have held the position of the first leader of the Sage Assistants, and I have also been engaged in a profession similar to that of Zachary's military advisor who maintains law and order. Therefore, I believe that those with these past experiences I was able to understand and become familiar with the responsibilities of the leader’s position in a relatively short period of time.”

Not paying attention to the looks of the sages, Alina once again picked up the tea cup and drank the tea in the cup, and continued to add,
  "Second, I believe that I have enough ability to assist all the sages and all the sage assistants to most effectively mobilize human resources to coordinate the conflicts and disputes that may exist in all aspects of Olivia's five major regions. In this regard, I believe From assisting the two sage assistants in the Southern District of the Earth to track down the monsters, to joining forces with Haitang to use their home field advantage to completely annihilate the absconding monsters, to assisting Yugiri in going to Carson Prison, and in the Southern District of the Earth's two sage assistants It can be seen that the problems left by the Lifford family three hundred years ago can be completely solved with timely assistance.”

This simple paragraph perfectly covers all the major regions of the Olivia continent, and also perfectly covers each major region in the narrative process, as well as the roles each of the sages and assistants played in this incident.

Several sages looked at each other with surprised but appreciative expressions.

The scene was silent for a while. After the sages slowly calmed down and took notes, the sage of water raised his head again and continued to ask with some curiosity: "What about the third point?"

"The third point," Alina met the looks of several sages without being humble. Then, with the nod of the water sage, she used the [breath of wind] magic to take the ancient piece from the top of the table. wearing a khaki pocket watch, and continued to calmly add, "I am the last descendant of [Card] and the representative of [the past]. Since both fate and [the past] have chosen me, I want to be in this world full of changes and possibilities." Times, I should stand in the right position and perform the right responsibilities."

There was another moment of silence, and the sages present were either surprised, enlightened, or smiling proudly.

This scene lasted quietly for a while, until the Wind Sage, who was the direct leader of Alina so far and had the least say in this conversation, finally couldn't hold back the serious expression on his face and looked at him proudly and curiously. The junior at the end of the long table tried his best to hold back his smile and broke the silence: "What about the fourth point?"

"The fourth point," she glanced at her elders who were having a hard time holding back laughter. Alina calmed down, looked away, and mentally went over what she wanted to say next. After confirming that it was correct, she calmed down. He replied, "Based on the above three points, I think you adults should not hesitate to give me a legal status to restrict me from being an unstable factor that may cause trouble to the mainland, right?"

"Hahaha, little Ellie, I didn't expect you to be quite self-aware!"

At this moment, the seriousness that Todd, the Sage of Wind, tried to maintain on his face completely collapsed, and he laughed out loud regardless of the occasion or even the eyes of others.

"Thank you for your appreciation, Master Clete." Ignoring the curious glances cast by the Wind Sage from time to time, Alina solemnly saluted, and then looked at the Water Sage on the other side, "The above is mine. Speak, thank you for your willingness to provide me with such a precious opportunity again, distinguished Lord Hobert."

"Okay, next time the sage assistants hold an internal leadership election, I will add a candidate seat on the original basis." The water sage nodded lightly, and then, without waiting for the wind sage to relax, he spoke again He smiled again and looked at the last leader of the former Sage Assistants, "What do you think about the prohibited punishments mentioned in the document?"

Showing a little struggle and a little reluctance, Alina closed her eyes deeply, and then her eyes became decisive and firm again: "Everything will be subject to your arrangements."

The Water Sage nodded again, and then looked at the remaining three sages. After a discussion that was not too long, he put away the documents on the table, looked solemnly at the young junior below, and made a judgment: "For This time, in order to quell the turmoil in Carson Prison, you secretly used forbidden magic to cause serious damage to the surrounding area. We have unanimously decided to remove you from your position as the leader of the Sage Auxiliary, but not to the public. Temporarily suspend and withdraw As the Sage Assistant of the East District of Wind, your political decision-making rights and special magic use rights in the East District of Wind and other areas of Olivia Continent will be officially returned until the next election of the leader of the Sage Assistant. Do you agree and implement it seriously? The above decision?”

"I agree."

Without any hesitation, Alina nodded firmly and bowed.

"Now please formally sign the following disciplinary documents and hand over the space bracelet and the leader's crest of the Sage Auxiliary."

"Yes!"

Without hesitation, she took out a black medal inlaid with eight gems of different colors from her space bracelet, and took off the bracelet. Alina bowed solemnly again, stepped back a distance, and waited quietly for several people. The sage put away these two items.

"That's it for today, thank you for your hard work."

Putting the two items one by one into the exquisite jewelry box at hand, the Water Sage nodded slightly to everyone present, stood up and announced.

"That's our job."

The remaining four people, including Alina, stood up at the same time in tacit understanding after hearing the words, and each bowed solemnly to the Sage of Water. Then, in order of seniority and junior, the waiter who arrived outside the door at the right time opened the door. One by one, they left this special conference room located on the top floor of the Administrative Department of Undine City...
