It's weird to apply for Witch Academy as a boy

"That's the name etched in Witch Language. It's the name of that witch. She's good at alchemy, but she's used to etching her name on her work as a mark. You don't have to worry about that."

"Witch language?" I tilted my head. It was the first time I heard this term.

"Don't worry too much about the common language of the witch race. This is something you will have to worry about after you leave this world. Moreover, the witch language is already a mature language system and has undergone special integration. You can master it with just one contract."

"Wait...a contract can acquire knowledge?" I immediately grasped the key words.

"Indeed, it is possible, but it is much more troublesome than your memory bookshelf. A contract is equivalent to printing. It is difficult at the beginning, but with a template, it can be reproduced in batches. This is the advantage of a contract, but you don't need to put the cart before the horse. Just enrich your memory bookshelf yourself."

"Okay." I nodded silently. I learned a lot of new things, so I decided to write them down silently.

I adjusted my glasses, as if activating an old habit. In my previous life, I was also an ordinary person, and myopia was inevitable, so I had the habit of wearing glasses.

I have noticed this in this life, and it may be influenced by my clairvoyance. I am not nearsighted, and I thought I no longer had this habit, but I didn't expect this habit to appear so naturally.

This pair of alchemical glasses quickly adapted themselves and turned into plain glasses.

"Also, take these printed materials with you. Read them from time to time. These are the few times you can practice runes. Just reading books is not good. Remember to practice from time to time."

"I understand." I nodded and took away all the printed papers that had piled up into a small mountain. These were the guidance materials compiled by Teacher Ji Niang, and it was worth reading them many times.

This is also what needs to be involved in modifying a non-restricted consumable spell book. Feeling its weight in front of me, I constantly sigh that I have a long way to go.

Chapter 260: Accumulation and Learning in the Library

As I walked, I flipped through the materials and information I took away from Teacher Ji Niang. A large part of them was read by Ji Niang herself and then she gave me guidance, and I only read a small part of them.

If I want to make further modifications to the spell book on the memory bookshelf, or even derive it, etc., these contents are also what I must understand. After all, if possible, I don’t want to rely on Teacher Ji Niang all the time.

I adjusted my glasses a little, turned on the reverse camera on my phone and looked at myself on the screen. I did have a scholarly and pretentious aura...

Well, even I can’t stand it after seeing it so much. I took a photo and sent it to Sister Bai, so that I won’t be embarrassed if I don’t recognize her when I meet her in the library.

Besides, Sister Bai has been very busy recently, so next time when you have nothing to do, you should try not to bother her as much as possible.

But soon Sister Bai replied to me with a "?" and also showed some concern for me.

I briefly explained my situation and chatted for a few more sentences before it ended. What... She didn't even comment on whether I looked good or not. Was it because I didn't show her the leg ring?

But I think Sister Bai is a little too worried. After all, the academy is still a college. No one dares to act recklessly, not to mention that I have changed my appearance.

But after I left the teaching building, I changed my mind. I don’t know if it was my illusion, but after I walked out, I felt some people glancing at me.

The other party's clothing was a bit strange, and it quickly reminded me of those guys in the witch society...

No way... This is the first time I've seen it... Oh, this should be the second time I've seen school bullying. The other party has a kind of unfriendly aura and seems to be doing nothing.

Whenever they looked at me, I felt like I was being stared at by a cold-blooded animal, especially when they turned their gazes towards me as I walked, there was a sense of scrutiny in their eyes.

This is so troublesome... I really want to kill these guys to save me from the trouble... wait!

Why do I have such strange thoughts? Killing people at will is weird, isn't it? This is not a dream.

It must be the influence of witchification on me!

After ignoring these troubles, I went straight to the library. What I saw just now really made me understand the threat from other people in the Witch Academy. This is no joke.

But I still don’t understand why they are still giving me trouble like a stick. Is it because I haven’t shown the strength to crush them in my dream?

Or is it just pure luck? Do they think I'm easy to bully and don't let me have an easy life?

After all, the Witch Academy still has a discipline team patrolling. If there is any loud magic destruction anywhere, they can discover it immediately, but some ordinary spells may not be discovered. Such blind spots are where they operate.

Moreover, the Witch Academy is very large, and it is impossible for the discipline team to take care of it all, but the central teaching area must be a place that is strictly inspected.

Even so, I can see that the other party is lurking there. It is very likely that they are just a role like delivering information, or cannon fodder who comes to test me.

But unfortunately, from this moment on, Yang Yuehan has disappeared, and there will be a white-haired girl named "Yue" in the Witch Academy.

I arrived at the library and chose a seat on the first floor of the library as I did last time. In order to avoid being approached by senior students with ulterior motives like last time, I tried my best to find a more secluded place.

Putting down the materials in my hand, I went to the same place as last time to look for books related to runes.

Because I believe in my reading speed and recording methods, I will pick up any rune-related books I am interested in. If I cannot finish reading them today, I will take them home. If I cannot finish reading them, I will read them tomorrow.

"Runeology? These books of yours... Excuse me, reading them randomly is useless, messy..."

"Huh?" I turned around and saw the senior student next to me. After confirming that the other party was talking about me, I didn't know how to explain for a moment.

I was called out for being stupid again...

"You're like this... Oh! You're trying to hook up with a senior, right? I hate you guys the most. If you don't want to learn anything, don't keep so many books for others to read." The other person looked at me, as if he had reacted, and his tone seemed to be a direct judgment on me.

"I am studying seriously. If my behavior has disturbed you, I apologize, but don't categorize me as that kind of person." I responded bluntly. Not to mention that everyone has their own way of learning, I myself hate it when people label people without understanding.

Even though the runes I studied were very broad and diverse, it's not like I don't know how to organize them. Moreover, I have my own memory bookshelf, so it's easier for me to organize knowledge than anyone else.

So I took the books that interested me and left, not wanting to continue talking to her.

This was just an episode, something that always happened to me when I behaved strangely in the library, just like being approached in the library was commonplace.

After I start reading, I will also give myself a spell to apply what I have learned. Knowledge is not a single independent existence, but is interconnected with each other.

After using this spell, the content recorded in the memory bookshelf can be recorded more flexibly.

It's not just the content of the book, but also the associated content, that is, the associations and insights that arise after reading this passage, and they are recorded in the form of "notes".

This not only greatly improved my learning efficiency, but also brought me a whole new way of understanding. After all, the human brain is always limited, but the effects of spells are infinite. Some things can only be obtained through constant association.

Time passed quickly.

These days, many senior students in the library have noticed that there is a new regular visitor here. The man with conspicuous white hair is indeed very conspicuous among the ordinary crowd.

But even though the seniors at the Witch Academy like to perm and dye their hair, or master various powers that cause their hair and eye colors to change, there are still very few white hairs.

After all, for people who have not yet adapted to a long lifespan, gray hair represents aging, which is bad and is easily associated with all kinds of negative words.

But if you ask me, this world lacks the tradition of worshipping white-haired and young faces from ancient times to the present. However, I believe that one day everyone will become obsessed with white hair, but this road is still a bit far away now.

Senior students who like to study in the library will naturally welcome another companion who studies quietly like them.

And those opportunistic people, those senior students who I chatted up in the library, also knew me.

As soon as they see the iconic white hair, they know that it is a person who cannot be teased, and he will not even pay attention to you when you approach him.

Even if you chat with the other person about the runes he or she reads, he or she will never talk to you about anything else. Because of this, no one came to disturb me for a few days.

Many senior students think that this might be a steely straight woman. In the Witch Academy, relationships between girls are very common. They do this to relieve stress in the academy and need spiritual sustenance and companionship.

And the more senior the students are, the more they feel that the girls around them actually look... quite pleasing to the eye...

If you are a senior who still insists on your sexual orientation, you can just leave school to pursue true love, or do other things to divert your attention. Although there are many restrictions on leaving school, there is always a way to go out.

Just like Bai Yu at that time, he lived outside the college for a long time.

After all, the Witch Academy is very open to teaching. If you want to learn, you can learn. If you don’t want to learn, it’s up to you. Isn’t that the case with witch clubs?

These days, a lot of exciting things have happened in Witch Academy. Although I spend the whole day in the library, I still check my phone.

First of all, as my silence disappeared, the enthusiasm for cheering for me gradually subsided, and Tan Han became the main force of the freshman class. During this period, Tan Han actually contacted me, for example, asking me about my current situation and why I was nowhere to be seen. She also asked me about the exploration of secret realms, and I mostly replied with direct rejection. In addition, as Tan Han awakened and understood her own path, she took the initiative to withdraw from Ji Niang's group. Although it had only been a few days since she came in and withdrew, this was also her own path.

If it is right, keep going; if it is wrong, stop loss in time. I believe Ji Niang also agrees with the other party's application to withdraw.

I am not surprised by this. I also think that even if Tan Han is just a member of Ji Niang's group, it will be a burden to her because she does not belong here.

As I disappeared, the students in Class 14 were the most anxious. If I hadn’t occasionally shown up in the group, they would have thought I was missing.

Although they seemed to have gotten used to the fact that the class monitor was not there, most of them still remembered the good things about me.

Moreover, with the series of incentives and reward sources announced by Teacher Ji Niang, other classes were also very envious.

Many of them were also shocked that the class monitor would share his rewards with other students in the class. Of course, there were also quite a few people who thought it was justified. After all, the number of resource axes given to the first place was thousands, and it was obviously prepared for other students in the class. It can be said that the excuses were very convincing.

In this regard, Teacher Ji Niang just watched coldly. She would not correct it. Even though she was the counselor of Class 14, she had no clear obligation to correct this. It was like if they came to her to complain about unfairness, she would still watch coldly. The Witch Academy would not go around them.

Teacher Ji Niang just agreed to my request and gave Tu Xingyue an extra reward in private. It was the geomantic memory that I specially prepared for her. I hope she will like it.

This seemingly charitable act by Class 14 actually brought considerable pressure to the monitors of other classes.

Many class monitors can say that the rewards they receive are not enough even for themselves, so how can they give other students in the class a chance?

Of course, there are also cases of moral blackmail and people who would rather die than obey, but the twists and turns here have nothing to do with me. They are just the greed of the weak.

Don't say that what is worrying is not the lack of wealth but the inequality of wealth. Don't be fooled by the relaxed atmosphere of Witch Academy. The extraordinary world is a world where the strong prey on the weak. This is the fundamental reason why I value knowledge and skills while also grasping strength.

Also happening during this period was the announcement of the Witch's Secret Realm. This news was shared by students from grades one to three, because the first three years of school were all spent learning theory through fixed courses. Generally speaking, without their own methods, the difference in combat power among students was not that big.

This secret realm is nominally hosted by the Witch Academy Club, and registration is voluntary. The Witch Secret Realm Club will screen the applicants.

The sharp-eyed people naturally noticed the appearance of Tan Han. It can be said that if Tan Han's strength was taken to the third grade, she would attract many people's attention with just one stomp of her foot. However, Yang Yuehan, who was recognized as the first among the freshmen this time, did not appear on such a list. This directly made many of Xiaohan's fans almost rush to the Witch Secret Realm Club. In the end, it was the president who came out to say that Yang Yuehan did not sign up and therefore did not appear on the list, and emphasized that this secret realm was mainly based on voluntary registration, etc...

Finally, the matter was settled. Renata, who knew the inside story, was also questioned by the current president, and finally had to accept the other party's willful behavior.

But they also know some inside information.

As long as the reserved places appear, even if the mission of this academy is completed, the remaining academies will help to cover the gap.

The hint that Yang Yuehan was not taken seriously by the academy was soon discovered by the people involved, so they quickly turned their focus back to Tan Han.

Since Tan Han's arrival, it can be said that she has received all kinds of care from the college since she enrolled. This practical care is obvious to all. After all, a dark horse is a dark horse, and in the end she is still no match for the college and the seed players that have invested huge resources.

So this is the conclusion they came to. They just had to follow the academy and suppress Tan Han. Moreover, in this trip to the secret realm, Tan Han overwhelmed all the senior students and performed equally brilliantly, as if she was determined to prove her title as the number one freshman.

If they can be won over, that would be the best. Many clubs were very dissatisfied with Tan Han joining a bakery club, and many senior students patiently extended olive branches again and again.

But Tan Han didn't answer.

In fact, Manager Xia Li also advised Tan Han whether to leave. She asked this sincerely because Xia Li also knew Tan Han’s value and she would not be able to display her talents if she always stayed in this shallow pool.

In fact, Xia Li also wanted to say the same thing to Xiao Han, but unfortunately she had never met him. When she sent him messages, he also replied, but when she asked him what he was doing, he was always busy.

Xia Li also lamented that she seemed to be unable to keep up with the thinking of the top students.

And I continued to stay in the library and read books, still books related to runes.

There is actually no end to the rune literature, but the runes recorded in the library are limited. However, if I use advanced permissions to obtain more books, I might be able to learn new runes, but I didn't do that.

As I said just now, there are endless runes, and I don’t have an over-understanding of the runes. I just understand, study, record and comprehend them.

Because if I pick out any single rune and want to study it, I can pull out documents and information that are more advanced than mine, so making choices is really important.

In the less than seven days, all I did was to simply understand the runes and their characteristics. This helped me accumulate knowledge and broaden my horizons, so that when I saw the runes while studying the spell book, I wouldn't be stunned and have no idea what they were.

Only when you are really stuck in a difficulty, that is the time to start to study one of the runes in depth.

This is like Professor Ji Niang, who also needs a lot of literature references when doing research.

Profound knowledge may seem impressive sometimes, but it is mostly for convenience. The rigor of research ultimately requires finding professional literature for actual investigation and comparison.

At this moment, I closed the book, gently picked up the coffee beside me and took a sip.

I have finished reading another book. These days, I have also learned the reading method of those senior students. In the first few days, I was a little reserved and serious. The seriousness like preparing for an exam can indeed make me study more efficiently, but this cannot last long for me.

After a while, I found that I needed to use the magic of unity of knowledge and action to hint myself so that I could concentrate on reading. It was not until a senior schoolmate kindly persuaded me and bought me a cup of coffee that I slowly began to learn to relax.

If you can't relax while reading, you won't be able to read anything.

Even though this reduces the efficiency of reading, if you continue with your previous style, the efficiency may drop even more.

Therefore, this leisurely way of reading is the best solution for me at this stage.

If you do something in a way that is not enjoyable, then your efficiency will decrease. The premise of this theory is that you need to have strong self-control and understand what you need, rather than using it as an excuse to enjoy yourself, otherwise there is no point in doing so.

After having a preliminary understanding and knowledge of runes, I looked back at the previous spell book modifications and suddenly felt as if I had gained more insights.

The ones that benefited the most were the three derivative skills I had currently developed for the energy-shaping spell.

The derivative that impressed me the most was "collection points". After learning about runes, I dug deeper into it, because when I was learning about runes, I saw a type of runes that I cared about very much. Their effects were comprehensively expressed as "spell penetration", which was a further in-depth concept of my understanding of the collection point technique to break armor.

This cannot be said to be an improvement, but rather an armor-breaking behavior that integrates spell penetration.

If I was simply using special techniques to violently break armor before, then the armor-breaking that now grants spell penetration effect has reached a higher level.

This week's study also taught me humility. Only when a person realizes how insignificant he is in front of knowledge, he is qualified to start stepping into the mountain of knowledge.

Originally, I had great ambitions to try everything, but just the skills of collecting points and using them, plus a "spell penetration" were enough to overwhelm me.

I would have gone off on a tangent again if I hadn't realized that this wasn't the week to research spell penetration.

I put away all the rune-related books on my desk and put them back in their original places, while some of the books were reserved by other senior students.

During these days, I also learned that the library also has its own study circles. For example, the circle I come into contact with the most is the rune circle, and I was also pulled into this group chat.

I also met some senior schoolmates who were also interested in rune rituals. Although I was not familiar with their names, I could chat with them in the group.
