Make the dragon great again

Chapter 303 Elena's Troubles (Two in One)

The noon sun was a bit harsh, but the temperature in the central city was still maintained at a comfortable level, and the extreme heat outside the city seemed to have nothing to do with the city.

On the main road of the city, a civil-use magic energy stabilization device stands every tens of meters, covering the whole city in a huge stable magic field, with the four seasons like spring, constant temperature and humidity.

And every night, these magic energy stabilizers will release the overloaded energy accumulated during the day in the form of light, turning it into street lamps, lighting up the central city.

Whenever night falls, standing on a high-rise building and looking around, the capital of the Saint Rand Magic Empire - Central City, is like the reflection of the starry sky on the earth, so beautiful...

Wearing a shawl and cloak, the girl covered every inch of her skin under the heavy blackout fabric, holding a few heavy books in her arms, and walked with her head down under the shade of the roadside, with unreasonable associations in her mind.

Due to the influence of the strange disease that became more serious as she grew older, she was born unable to adapt to life in the sun. Therefore, she prefers, or is more familiar with, this city at night than the central city, which also has a magnificent charm during the day. side.

Although under the "heavy armor", the sun can no longer reach her skin, but the girl who realized the strange eyes cast by others couldn't help stretching out her gloved hand, and put the outer brim of the hood back Pulled down a few points.

"Be brave, Elena." The girl cheered herself up in her heart.

"It was so hard to break the rules and get admitted to the Imperial Academy of Magic. How can you be timid because of such a small difficulty?"

Elena quickened her pace, but her weak constitution would make her more exhausted during daytime activities, plus holding these few books that could be used as heavy-duty blunt weapons, it didn't take long for her to become out of breath.

This afternoon is Ms. Lena's class. This instructor is notoriously strict and rigid. If I am late like yesterday, I am afraid that I will be expelled from this class even if I am a special student named by the dean. , and was written a few unattractive comments on the student status...

Today is the third day that Elena entered the Imperial Academy of Magic.

As a Muggle who "has absolutely no" magical talent, relying on her own hard work and hard work, at the age of 17, Elena taught herself several subjects such as magic materials, rune structure, and the history of magic development. Ordinary official magicians are even more sophisticated.

By chance, Elena, who lived in a remote holy church in the central city, showed her talent in front of others. The dean's fifth-level magician——Professor Julian, watched the incident;
The dean of the Imperial Academy of Magic, out of concern for a frail and sick child who loves magic, concealed his identity and started a relationship with Elena, who lives in the church, as a passing travel scholar. Several exchanges;
In the end, Professor Julian greatly appreciated Elena's talent for having a unique understanding of many extraordinary principles without relying on her natural magical talent, and even called it a great talent "enough to change the future of the magic world". After revealing his identity, Professor Julian invited Elena to study at the Imperial Academy of Magic.

And Elena, after careful consideration, agreed to this invitation, and two days ago, became a transfer student of [Saint Rand Magic Empire National Academy of Magic], which is yearned for by all young spellcasters in the western part of the mainland...

In order to cure her illness, not to be a burden to her brother, and to catch up with her brother, to see the outside world and the mountains and rivers under the sun, Elena made up her mind that even if she did not become a superhero at all, Even if you don't have the talent of a scholar, you must also become an outstanding scholar, and heal your own strange diseases by yourself!

However, just like the stories in those heroic epics that Elena loves to watch most, after the protagonist takes a step forward and leaves the ordinary world, there will be a virtuous guide to guide him along the way, and there will also be annoying supporting characters Show your teeth and claws.

Dean Julian is like the mentor of the sages and heroes in the story, and Ms. Lena, who is stern all day long, is one of those supporting roles...

'No, that's not right. Although Ms. Lena is strict, she is the tutor who teaches me knowledge after all. I was reprimanded by her for being late, but I can't resent her for teaching me knowledge. '

Elena thought to herself.

The supporting villain that really makes people hate him is much more annoying than Ms. Lena...

'If I let my brother know that I was punished for making a mistake and instead resented the person who punished me, he would definitely catch me and nag me for a long time, right? '

Thinking of her brother Yorkson, whom she hadn't seen for several years, Elena felt even more lonely.

She knew that her brother was originally a genius of the Knights Templar of the Kingdom of the Holy Order, and also a student of a retired grand master. If it weren't for his humble background and the premature death of the former grand master, he might have already become a knight. The rookie, even has the qualifications to become a candidate for the Bishops Conference?

But now...

For this strange disease that no one thought could be cured, my brother did not hesitate to use illegal means to raise money to buy medicines. He was reported by competitors in the Knights, and was deprived of his status as a Templar in the Inquisition. The son became the disgrace and laughing stock of the Knights.

Originally, with the favor of the former Grand Leader, Yorkson only needs to fast for several years and clear his charges with penance, and still have the possibility of returning to the Knights. However, Elena's strange disease is getting worse, and the money spent It is also getting bigger and bigger, if Yorkson goes this way, it will mean Elena's death...

Yorkson needed money, so he took Elena, left the Kingdom of the Holy Order, came to the Magic Empire, and became an adventurer who risked his life in exchange for reward.

There are also many holy churches in the magic empire, and the priest of a small church in the central city of the capital received the favor of the former grand master and took in the hard-fated brother and sister.

This church became the future home of the brothers and sisters.

"Brother will be shocked when he comes back. He never thought that I became a student of the Imperial Academy of Magic!"

Elena thought with some complacency.

The gate of the academy was in front of her eyes, and Elena quickened her pace.

There is still plenty of time, today will definitely not be late——

Elena, who was walking with her head down, only felt her arm being pulled by something, and then she lost her center of gravity, turned half a circle and fell to the ground with her head up.

The books in his arms were scattered all over the floor, and the hood was blown away by the wind during the fall, exposing a pale face to the sun.

I was tripped by someone, Elena thought to herself, but the next moment, she didn't have the time to think about it——

Pain, it hurts.

The pain of falling to the ground was nothing, the real pain came from Elena's skin that was exposed to the sun at this moment.

The girl let out a cry of pain, and quickly covered her face, which was no longer covered by the hood, with her hands.

At this time, a rebellious female voice, like the standard dandy villain in the story, came from the side:
"Hey, it's a pity that you don't show your fair and tender face. I said that you, a Muggle without any talents, can be specially recruited into the academy? It shouldn't be...you are late every day because Are you rushing over from the principal's house? Haha!"

Amid the wanton laughter of the other party, Elena put the hood back on, endured the tingling pain on her skin, tremblingly picked up the heavy book that had fallen.

"What? Don't you refute?"

The one standing in front of Elena, who was sneering and sarcastic, was her classmate, the daughter of a count of the empire, named Katerina, who was a "celebrity" in the first year of the academy.

It is said that the talent is very good, but the grades can only be regarded as mediocre. She has disgusting aristocratic habits. She is a well-known courtesan among the aristocratic descendants of the same level, and even flirts with senior seniors.

On the first day Elena was specially recruited, Katerina took the lead in making trouble for her.

Elena, who has no noble blood, no extraordinary talent, and even no nationality, was actually specially recruited by the headmaster?And praised her talent in public?

Doesn't this mean that their other noble daughters are not as good as such a pariah living in the church?
Elena felt bitter in her heart.

——Compared to Ms. Lena, who has a strict teaching style, these small groups of noble ladies headed by Katerina are the real annoying villains in the story!
"Please step aside, Miss Katerina."

"Huh? Are you ordering me?" Katerina obviously looked for faults on purpose.

Elena knew what she was up to.

According to Ms. Lena's disposition, she was late for two consecutive days, so she definitely didn't need to take this class. Afterwards, Katerina would trip her up in other places. As long as she had three courses and was given a red line by the instructor, then She is just waiting to be expelled from school.

Incidents of nobles oppressing civilians in the academy have continued, but the targeting of Elena is actually more out of mutual jealousy among women.

There may be some political considerations against Dean Julian behind it, but these are beyond what Elena can figure out...

Elena suppressed the resentment in her heart and said in a low voice:

"If I remember correctly, Ms. Katerina is also a student of Ms. Lena's magic medicine course. If I am late, it means you will also be late."

"I've already completed the credits for this school year in the first half of the year. It doesn't matter if I don't take the course of magic medicine. But you, if you are late today, it will be interesting."

Seeing that the other party didn't intend to let her off at all, and the bell was already ringing in the academy, Elena smiled wryly in her heart.

It seems that I am destined to be expelled from Ms. Lena's class, obviously I like magic pharmacy very much...

Do you really want to ask the dean for help?
Elena struggled in her heart.

The dean gave me the opportunity to study in the Academy of Magic, which was already a great favor to me who had no talent for magic. It would be too shameless to use his good opinion of me to seek convenience for myself.

What's more, even Elena knows that Dean Julian seems to be involved in power disputes within the Senate. Her current encounters are actually supported by big figures against Dean Julian. Going to make a small report will only make you fall into a bigger vortex.

There are gains and losses. Because of the appreciation of Dean Julian, I got the opportunity to enter the academy, and because of the relationship between Dean Julian, I have no one to blame for the predicament I am facing now. I can only find a way by myself spent

"What are you doing? I remember I said that you can't be late again today."

A middle-aged female voice with a serious tone came from the side.

"Ms. Lena!" Among the few people behind Katerina, someone exclaimed.

The person who came was a serious middle-aged woman in a black dress and a monocle. She was Ms. Lena, the instructor of the Potions course at the Academy of Magic.

"How is this going?"

Ms. Lena ignored them, but looked at Elena who was obviously surrounded by several people.

"Ms. Lena, we were about to go to the classroom, but accidentally bumped into each other here, so we lost time..." Elena whispered.

Katerina and the others were a little surprised, thinking that Elena would take the opportunity to sue them, but they didn't expect that she would even defend them.

Is this flattering us?Sure enough, you are an inferior pariah, and you are a bit self-aware, but you are too naive to want to get our forgiveness!
Just when Katerina thought so.

"Hmph, don't think I'm a fool!"

Ms. Lena snorted, and a powerful heart tremor swept across. Katerina and the others suddenly turned pale and their footsteps were a little unsteady, but Elena was the only one who was fine.

"I don't know what kind of madness Julian went to recruit you, an ordinary person with no magical talent, into the academy. In my courses, I only see your grades, not how you got in, nor how you got in." Don’t look at your family background! I really think it’s difficult to cultivate a person, I will not only expel him from my course, but also submit a proposal to the college to completely expel this student!”

The first words were addressed to Elena, but the latter few words were obviously addressed to Keterina and the others.

"Today, I delayed my trip due to business. The start of the class was delayed by half an hour. The notice was issued at noon today, so you are not considered late this time, but I don't want to see another time."

"Yes, Ms. Lena." The responses of several people were uneven.

Ms. Lena walked forward, Katerina and the others could only get out of the way, and Elena seized the opportunity to follow behind.

Finally got through this crisis.

Elena breathed a sigh of relief.

And without being expelled from Ms. Lena's course, she could continue to study Potions, and Elena's mood turned around.

'But from what Ms. Lena said just now, she seems to have a very good relationship with the dean? '

Elena started to have messy associations again.

"This is what happens to the weak." Ms. Lena, who was walking in front, said suddenly.

"Uh, ma'am?" Elena froze for a moment.

"You are indeed very talented. I mean, in the academic field that does not rely too much on supernatural power, you are simply a Muggle in terms of supernatural talent! I have never seen you like you, who can't sense any magical elements at all. people!"

Elena didn't dare to gnaw, and only heard Ms. Lena continue to say:
"If you have extraordinary talents, even if you are not outstanding, with your academic talents, your future achievements will not be low, and you will have enough strength to protect yourself, instead of being like a bird when trouble comes to you. Shivering like a poor kitten!"

Ms. Lena is caring about herself.

The ill-fated Elena is very sensitive to the malice and kindness of others, and knows that this mentor is caring about herself.

"I know, Ms. Lena, that's why I'm going to study at the Academy of Magic."

Even if you encounter such and such embarrassing situations and even difficulties.

"...Very well, I thought you were just a lucky guy who was favored by Julian, but it seems that you are more mature than I thought... But in the end, you have no strength to protect yourself, you are here You can't go on, especially if you are labeled as Julian, and that guy Julian has recently been involved in the struggle of those old fellows of the Council of Elders!"

It seemed that she had heard something extraordinary, and Elena didn't dare to answer it at all.

Along the way, Elena once again diverged her thoughts.

"The strength to protect myself... I want to have that kind of thing, at least, so that my brother doesn't have to run around for me anymore..."

I don't know where my brother is now, how he is doing, whether his two companions are still bickering with each other every day...

Thinking of the fun things that happened during the adventure that her brother and sister mentioned in the letters sent back, the corners of Elena's mouth could not help but curl up, and the depression in her heart was swept away.

'When my brother comes back, I should already be a trainee scholar. I will have my own salary and my own dormitory. He will be surprised when the time comes. Maybe my strange disease has been cured by myself!When the time comes, I will advise him not to go out to take risks, or I can go on an adventure with him...'

When Elena was imagining a better life in the future, she didn't notice the sadness on Ms. Lena's brows, nor did she notice the sneer expressions of Katerina and the others not far behind her.

At the same time, in the far northeast of the central city, a three-person "messenger" team is riding on the back of the flying dragon, flying towards the capital of the empire...
