Lord Wizard: Starting your studies with infinite magic crystals!

"so what?"

"Therefore, someone like you from the Rose Ridge has more room for trial and error when you go to the frontier after graduation."

In other words, it has a strong backing, a complete backing that has been in place for a century.

Listen to what Tland said.

Wayne shook his head, but didn't say anything stupid or empty talk about not needing support.

"There's still plenty of time. I haven't considered any steps yet, and just a heads-up, senior, you've gone off-topic."

Tland chuckled awkwardly, coughed twice, and then continued, "Based on this, the Ice Element Awakening Rose I hastily crafted..."

The perfect match for the Marquis de Rose.

Bringing it out is a way to see if you'll repay kindness; it's a small test, and also to see if you're suitable to befriend someone.

After all, as I said before, we are both wealthy people, and I haven't chosen anyone to follow yet.

So, you know.

Seeing this, Wayne finally understood.

"So you want to become my follower?"

"Who knows? I'm only in sixth grade now, I have plenty of time and I'm not in a hurry."

of course.

I'm sure I'll have many more opportunities to visit you in the future.

Upon hearing this,

Did Wayne have ulterior motives for leaving with so many people? After all, when you're choosing others...

Others are also choosing you.

He wasn't so ignorant as to think that if he unleashed his domineering aura, countless people would flock to him.

"Shall we wait and see?"

As he spoke, he picked up the cup in his hand and looked at Tland.

Upon seeing this, Trande smiled.

The conversation between the two ended with the crisp clinking of their glasses.

After walking away.

Tland glanced back at Wayne before uttering a soft sentence.

"This is surprisingly good, but there's still a long way to go."

Let's leave it for now.

.........

"You seem to get along well with everyone."

Upon hearing this,

Wayne turned to look at Sophia, but instead of replying, he said something else.

"And what about you?"

Have the followers been found?

Sofia shook her head slightly, her tone tinged with a hint of helplessness.

"It's difficult. The lord wizards I can think of have either already graduated, or there aren't any."

"Already graduated?"

"You wish to follow the Marquis of Roses?"

Sophia was puzzled by Wayne's words.

Why did you think of the Marquis of the Roses?

"I've heard from Aurora that the Marquis of Roses is an idol among you women."

Sofia shook her head.

"The Marquis de Rose is indeed a role model for women, but she is not someone I want to follow."

Moreover, the Marquis of the Roses is still in its pioneering phase, a period of about a century. If I wanted to follow him...

"You can definitely follow them after graduation."

Wayne was puzzled by Sophia's words.

"I do know about the century-long period of development, but what's with the recruitment?"

"you do not know?"

"Know what?"

"You really are just like what they say on the forum, all you care about is asceticism."

The so-called century-long period of expansion refers to the period set by the empire for expansion in one direction every twenty-five years.

During the expansion period, lords can also recruit the personnel they need from the three major academies.

However, this period is limited to a hundred years. Once the hundred-year period ends, they will no longer be allowed to recruit graduates from the central academy and will have to train their own students.

Upon hearing this,

Wayne nodded knowingly.

"Is that what they say? This is the first time I've ever heard of it."

But speaking of which one, who has already graduated, would you like to follow?

"The Flower of the High Mountain - Princess Golden Dragon".

"Princess Golden Dragon, I remember Aurora once. Was she also a graduate of the Lord Wizard Academy?"

Sophia nodded slightly, then her eyes lit up: "Yes, the Golden Dragon Princess also graduated from the Lord Wizard Academy, and to be precise..."

She should be called the Duke of Golden Dragon or the Grand Duchess of Golden Dragon, but being a woman, and having risen to prominence in recent decades alongside the newly emerging Marquis de Rose as one of the two jewels of the South,

That's why she was called the Golden Dragon Princess.

"Then why is it Princess Golden Dragon and not Marquis Rose?"

In response to Wayne's question, Sophia joked:

"What?

Want to stand up for the Marquis of Rose?

Wayne rolled his eyes at Sophia.

"I don't live by the sea."

"What do you mean?"

"It's none of our business."

"Haha, you're really interesting, but why did you ask that?"

"I'm curious, after all, Princess Golden Dragon is a senior, I want to learn about her legendary stories."

Isn't that how it should be?"

Upon hearing this, Sophia glanced at Wayne with her beautiful eyes.

"Do you even believe what you're saying?"

He continued, "My grandfather originally lived on the Elf Continent. Later, while traveling around, he met the Golden Dragon Princess and they formed a bond."

After his travels concluded, he chose to settle in the territory of the Golden Dragon Princess, who had recently graduated.

I grew up listening to stories about the Golden Dragon Princess, so I want to follow in her footsteps.

Wayne chuckled upon hearing this.

"If you were born in Rose Territory, would you follow the Marquis of Rose? In other words,..."

Whether you are the Golden Dragon Princess or not is unimportant; wherever you are born, that's where you'll follow.

Sophia wasn't angry at Wayne's sharp and sarcastic words. Instead, she watched Wayne with great interest for a while until he felt a chill run down his spine.

Only then, to Wayne's astonishment, did he pick up his wine glass.

"Tsk."

"A vengeful kid, want a drink?"

Wayne hesitated for a moment upon receiving the invitation, but quickly understood, so he picked up his juice.

He bumped into Sofia.

All the unpleasantness between the two was resolved after that drink.

The smoke disappeared.

"How is it?"

Are we friends now?

Faced with the question posed by Sophia, Wayne raised an eyebrow slightly, and for a moment thought of Tland.

So whether it's the teasing on the cable car or the current reconciliation with a smile,

Was this all part of your scheme?

"No, I teased you on the cable car because you rejected me, and also..."

Sofia paused for a moment, as if thinking about how to describe it.

"You may not have realized it, but you have a quality that others don't have, something that is indescribable but truly exists."

"You think you're a prophet, talking nonsense."

What's wrong?

"You're not planning to be a knight anymore, are you thinking of changing careers?"

See here.

Sophia didn't dwell on it, but instead stared intently at Wayne.

"So, are we friends now?"

"certainly,

After all, I always keep my word; friendship is just the first step.

Sofia understood instantly and then revealed a stunning smile.

"Hehe~"

"Then the teacher is waiting for you to achieve that."

After saying that, Sophia looked around and said, "Well, that's enough for today. Tonight, many people are coming to see you, the main character."

If we keep dominating you, it'll incur public wrath. Kid, enjoy your moment in the spotlight!

After saying that, he left immediately.

Wayne was confused for a moment, but he quickly realized what was happening when he saw a large group of people.

They surged forward quickly after Sofia left.
