Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 432: The Emergency Situation of the Magic Level Assessment and the Weight of Water Begonia

On the other side, Salister, who was looking forward to participating in the Ice and Snow Festival celebration but was unable to attend due to the magic level assessment next month, was currently reviewing the report submitted by her subordinates with her assistant with a solemn expression.

"Alfred, why do you think this kind of report was submitted at this time?"

After reviewing the contents of the report again, Salister silently withdrew her gaze and looked at the assistant beside her.

"We cannot rule out the possibility that someone is deliberately targeting us."

Next to Sallysette, a man in his twenties with black hair neatly combed back and wearing a pair of square rectangular glasses thought for a moment and finally gave his guess very conservatively.

"But even if we did adjust the policy to their wishes, they wouldn't be able to really harm Natalie."

Salister shook her head slightly and quickly gave a negative answer based on her knowledge of the surrounding area of ​​Sylph City.

"Is that something else? As you know, in this magic level assessment, we need to pay attention to more than just Miss Arinor."

Alfred continued to speculate on the possible reasons behind this anomaly.

"Lily? But Lily is just an ordinary magic academy student. Except for Inzat, an uncle who is directly related to the 'sky', there is nothing special about her..."

Sallysette shook her head again to deny the speculation raised by her assistant.

"Sorry, I can't think of other reasons at the moment."

Seeing that his guess was denied again, Alfred couldn't help but fell into a rather distressed state for a while, and expressed his apology restrainedly.

"It doesn't matter, I haven't figured out the reason either. Maybe it's really a coincidence. In short, you pass this news to Rosa first, and I'll see if I can do some more investigation on this matter."

Sallysette smiled with relief, not caring that her assistant could not think of other reasons. Instead, she picked up the water-dipped quill at hand, took out the letter paper, and quickly wrote a letter to the 'Sky Witness' …

……

While Salister was busy submitting information to the Sky Witness, Natalie and Alina, who were in Undine City, were still staying at the celebrations in Undine City and enjoying the celebrations. The project brings them a new experience.

"Teacher Alina, what is that?"

As soon as she came out of the North District of Undine City, Natalie noticed the translucent bells floating around the shops on both sides of the street, which seemed to be able to drop tiny snowflakes and ice crystals on their own, and cast a curious gaze.

"This is a decoration made of ice magic. If Natalie is curious, you can go over and touch it and have a look."

After flipping through the list in her hand, Alina immediately gave a simple answer based on the principles of magic structure she had observed.

"is it okay?"

Looking at the neatly decorated snowflakes, Natalie took back her steps hesitantly and turned her head to ask for her teacher's opinion.

"Of course, I just tested it. As long as you don't try to destroy the entire decoration, it's totally fine for Natalie to touch it a little."

Seeing that the student was still a little hesitant, Alina couldn't help but smile a little helplessly in her heart. On the surface, she pointed in the direction of the store opposite the two of them with a gentle attitude, "Look, there are people playing this over there, too. So Natalie doesn’t need to worry.”

Following the teacher's gaze, Natalie quickly noticed that two or three children were curiously chasing the snowflakes that were floating out of the ice ring near the shop several meters away from them.

Under their guidance, Natalie lost some of her psychological burden and began to carefully reach out and touch the ice blue bell she saw. Accompanied by waves of crisp tinkling bells, the ice-blue bell in front of her seemed to have come to life, creating soft ice-blue ripples.

After the ripples passed, a few crystal clear snowflakes quietly fell into her hands as the ripples disappeared.

Hey, did it melt so quickly...?
  Feeling the coldness coming from her palms, Natalie was about to sigh that the cold feeling made her feel very comfortable. However, before she could even utter her sigh, she discovered the piece of ice. The cool snowflakes have turned into a puddle of snow...

"Natalie, do you want to build a snowman? If I remember correctly, there is a ski resort open to everyone in the northwest suburbs of Undine City. There is a lot of snow there, so Natalie doesn't have to worry at all. Problems with snow melting.”

Sensing the disappointment on the student's face, Alina flipped through the activity list in her hand again, confirmed the location and activities, and stepped forward to whisper beside the student.

"Huh? Really?"

Natalie couldn't help but exclaim.

But soon, she covered her mouth in shame for her behavior just now, looked at her teacher very carefully, and subconsciously distanced herself from the store not far away from her.

"Really, but if we are going to play there, we'd better make some preparations."

Seeing that the students were still a little confused, Alina quickly made a wait gesture, then walked to the store where Natalie just stopped, bought two ice and snow festival commemorative hairpins, and took the hairpins back to her students. .

"This is a souvenir from this year's Ice and Snow Festival. It's not expensive. Natalie, feel free to accept it."

While talking, Alina showed the bill just now in a very cooperative manner and motioned the students to check the numbers on it.

After discovering that the price was indeed not expensive, Natalie took back her wallet with confidence, nodded slightly to the teacher, and accepted this souvenir that looked very exquisite, but turned out to be only worth 3 copper coins.

"No need to be surprised, because these souvenirs are originally sold to ordinary people, so the price will definitely be relatively cheaper."

"It turned out to be like this...!"

Natalie had a sudden realization, then carefully put on her hairpin, followed the teacher and changed direction, intending to go to the northwest suburb of Undine City mentioned earlier.

However, before they had gone far, Natalie noticed that some of the people around them who had been shopping slowly like them had quickened their pace, and some even turned on their magic and started flying at low altitude.

what happened?
  Natalie was confused for a while, and subconsciously turned her head to look at her teacher, only to find that her teacher seemed to be as confused as she was.

"It's okay. I'm also curious about the reason. Let's go and see together?"

After looking at the direction of the source of the anomaly, Alina gently nodded and suggested to the student with a smile.

"OK…!"

After looking at the direction of the crowd that still hadn't changed much, and with the teacher having the same idea, Natalie finally didn't hesitate and followed the teacher in a different direction, chasing after those people who were strangely speeding up their pace.

A few minutes later,

Natalie looked at the entrance to the north area of ​​Undine City where they had stayed not long ago with a strange expression. She couldn't believe that the source of the anomaly was actually the place where they had stayed before.

Alina was also confused for a while, but soon, she took advantage of her ability to fly and float, floated slightly, and saw the Water Begonia surrounded by many local residents...
