After I died of old age, I was reincarnated into another world and became a cat

"Yes."

The students nodded and replied.

It is obvious that the dean came here today dressed up specially, so at least he had to be given enough face. As for why their itinerary suddenly changed, many students speculated that this should be the so-called three major changes that a new official makes upon taking office?

However, some freshmen have already learned from seniors that Dean La Luna possesses very advanced magical attainments, so they naturally do not underestimate him.

His words and actions in front of La Luna were very reserved.

"Okay, now that all the students are here, let's get started."

After La Luna asked the lecturers to confirm that all the freshmen were present, she clapped her hands. The door of the auditorium opened in response, and the heavy door slowly opened, revealing the bright auditorium hall inside.

"Please take your seats in order from the first row to the last row according to your admission numbers."

La Luna walked and waved her staff, drawing a magical number on each table. The students looked at La Luna's magic operation in amazement, and then took their seats in the hall according to their student numbers.

The moment La Luna stood on the podium, the last student also found his seat.

"First of all, I would like to welcome you to the birthplace of magic, the Alreis School of Magic. Congratulations on successfully passing the initial screening and becoming a member of our school, but the road to magic does not stop here."

After finishing, La Luna waved her magic wand to construct a water curtain behind herself, and then used magic to create a black curtain behind the water curtain to absorb light.

For a moment, the entire water surface looked dark.

Then La Luna directed her staff and drew on the water curtain. A series of magic runes and formulas appeared on the blackboard. The number of runes increased and they became more and more complicated. The structure of the runes also became larger and larger.

Finally, fill the entire blackboard completely.

The students in the audience looked bewildered, and even the lecturer in charge of these students was confused. Most of the runes on the blackboard were ones he had never seen before, and some of the formats completely violated the principles he had learned.

However, some students who had learned the new series of magic recognized it at first sight. The magic runes written by La Luna here were all related to this series. They started from the elementary level of their own learning and gradually became more and more complicated, but clearer and clearer.

Finally, they finally discovered that what La Luna wrote was not just a bunch of disorganized magic runes, but a magic system! A brand new and complete magic system!

After La Luna finished writing, she gently waved at the blackboard, and countless magic runes and formulas merged together, finally forming a few large glittering words.

“Magic is full of infinite possibilities.”

As the saying goes, those who know the tricks are the ones who watch the show, in the eyes of many students, La Luna's performance is just an ordinary and even a bit flashy opening performance. But in front of the students who really understand the meaning of these runes, it is a whole new magic faction presented to them, even if it is only a flash!

Chapter 9 IX

All of this is demonstrated without saying a word. In short, everyone understands this kind of thing, and if you don’t understand it, you will understand it slowly in the future.

La Luna did not explain her behavior. Instead, she continued her speech to the freshman as if nothing had happened.

Because there was no prepared manuscript, La Luna was completely improvising on the spot, so the starting point did not directly point out the theme of the speech. Instead, she developed the topic from the students' recent daily lives.

The students were quite happy to hear La Luna talk about this. After all, they could relate to it. If La Luna had been like other old men and started talking about some random principles and encouraging them to learn magic, the students would have surely been drowsy in the audience.

What's more, La Luna herself is a great beauty, and the cat ears on her head and the cat tail behind her are particularly eye-catching.

The way she spoke was just like her kind sister asking her how she was doing in college recently.

Gradually, as the topic developed, La Luna slowly turned the direction of the conversation to magic learning.

"I wonder what you think about magic? Are there any classmates who would like to share with me?"

As soon as La Luna said this, a large group of students below the stage immediately raised their hands and looked at La Luna eagerly.

"Haha, it seems like everyone is very active. Um, that boy over there, yes, the one wearing the yellow striped robe."

Because the new students had not yet received the magic robes issued by the academy, and today was not a formal meeting, the students were dressed casually.

But it's okay to be casual, as it makes you look more individual and makes it easier for La Luna to pick out a few more conspicuous classmates from the crowd.

"Is it me?"

"Yes, that's right, don't hesitate."

In response to the boy's self-doubt, La Luna nodded to him affirmatively.

Then the boy showed a surprised smile and quickly stood up to answer La Luna's question.

"My thoughts on magic... well, it's just that it's powerful! Very powerful! I want to be a great magician too!"

After thinking about it, the boy scratched his head and said this shyly.

The other students didn't react much either. After all, this was the standard answer that almost all magicians agreed upon.

But LaLuna was not satisfied.

"That's too standard. We are not doing any academic discussion here. Let's talk about your true feelings about magic."

After La Luna said this, the boy stood there awkwardly and smiled, then racked his brains but couldn't think of what to say.

Then La Luna waved her hand with some disappointment, indicating that he could sit down.

"teacher!"

Another girl near the podium raised her hand and looked at La Luna very seriously.

"Oh, okay, classmate, what do you think about magic?"

"I think that in addition to the goal of becoming a great magician, magic has also brought infinite convenience to our lives. Although everyone has abilities given by the gods, these abilities are all lacking. Magic is the reward that the gods give us after the test. The practicality and power of magic far exceeds the gifts from the gods!"

Every word the girl spoke was powerful and moving, winning applause and cheers from the surrounding students.

La Luna nodded and signaled the girl that she could sit down.

"She is right. Magic, as a reward from the gods for human wisdom, is indeed much higher than the gifts from the gods. But have you ever thought that perhaps the reward from the gods for the wisdom of our ancestors is only a small part of the entire magic system?"

La Luna drew a circle on the blackboard and reintegrated the light characters she had created before into the circle. Then, as the circle shrank, a large circle reappeared outside the small circle, replacing the previous position.

Seeing this continuously circulating light circle, all the students looked at it with confusion, totally unable to understand what it meant.

La Luna continued.

"I don't know. Have you ever heard a story? It's about a frog who once lived at the bottom of a well. He looked up at the sky and thought that the sky was only as big as the well mouth. But through the space at the well mouth, he could constantly know the sunlight and the starry sky."

La Luna paused here.

"Many years passed, and the frog looked up at the sky at the mouth of the well. After so many years, it finally became the most knowledgeable one at the bottom of the well. It was deeply respected by the other frogs at the bottom of the well. However, one day, when some of them left the well, they found themselves in a wider well, and the sky at the mouth of this well was much larger than the one they had seen from the small hole before."

"All their previous cognitions have been overturned. It turns out that the truth of this world is not just as big as the small well mouth. The truth of the world is much bigger than they once knew. Even now they can only see the sky of the second well, but they can imagine a wider world."

“And in that small well, the frogs who were unwilling to come out still only saw that small and pitiful world.”

When La Luna finished telling this story, the entire auditorium was silent, and only the students' breathing and heartbeats could be heard.

At this point all the students and even the lecturers began to think about the meaning of La Luna's story.

"Teacher, are you satirizing those conservatives?"

The girl who spoke boldly before stood up again, breaking the silence in the auditorium.

"Ahem, classmate, please don't over-interpret this. I'm not targeting anyone with this story. Everyone has their own opinions. Imposing your own opinions on others is a bad behavior and is not a quality that a magician should possess."

"Teacher, I think the story you told is very correct. Daring to leave the world you once lived in and head for unknown areas is a very outstanding pioneering spirit. Compared to those old antiques who are obsessed with their own world and unwilling to listen to advice, they are the most disgusting."

"Ahem! Student! Please control your emotions. If you have anything to talk about, you can come to me after the lecture. The lecture is still going on. Thank you."

La Luna nodded politely and smiled at the girl.

The female student was also very tactful. She shut her mouth, sat down, and listened quietly to La Luna's lecture.

Chapter 10 Ten

After seeing the student stop, La Luna finally breathed a sigh of relief. Active students are not always liked by teachers.

If you are too active and embarrass the teacher, it may even have the opposite effect.

After a brief pause, La Luna continued her narration. However, she was interrupted by the girl and she didn't know what to say for a moment. As a result, she could only end it hastily and let the students go back to rest.

But even so, the students still felt that they benefited a lot after listening to this lecture. Of course, there were still some students who didn’t understand what La Luna meant. However, since everyone had such an understanding expression, it was not easy for them to show that they didn’t understand, so they could only follow the crowd and pretend that they understood.

After the lecture, La Luna sat in her original seat for a while, drank a sip of water, waited slowly for the students to leave, and then looked at the only student who remained in the classroom.

"It seems like you really have a lot to talk about?"

"Yes, teacher."

The girl nodded and did not deny what La Luna said. At this moment, the rare sunlight happened to shine in from the side window, illuminating the entire auditorium. After the two looked at each other for a while, La Luna shook her head and said.

"Let's go. If you want to chat, this is definitely not the right place. I'm going to go somewhere where you can talk freely."

"it is good."

The female student did not refuse. Instead, she stood up and followed La Luna out of the auditorium.

"Hilde, please arrange a carriage for me."

"Yes, Lady La Luna."

After leaving the auditorium, La Luna slowly walked with the student on the road outside. Nothing was said between the two, but La Luna could feel that the student's inner emotions were probably turbulent.

It was like the quiet before the storm.

It's just temporary forbearance.

Not long after, Hilde drove a carriage slowly to La Luna's side.

"Master Laluna, please get in the car."

Hilde jumped off the carriage, then lowered the tripod on the side door of the carriage and climbed into the carriage. Then, Hilde closed the door of the carriage, put away the tripod, returned to the driver's seat, and drove the carriage towards the outside of the city of Alris.

"Okay, it will take us a while to get there, so you can tell me what's on your mind now."

"Teacher La Luna, the new type of magician that is being taught in the academy now, is it you who developed it?"

The female student looked at La Luna very seriously, and then slowly asked the question.

La Luna nodded confidently.

"That's right. This magic, whether it's the most basic runes or the increasingly sophisticated formulas, was all designed and developed by me. Of course, it's been a while since I made this thing, and it's possible that some smart guys have already learned the basics and modified it. But you also understand that the foundation of magic runes and formulas is here. No matter how they are modified, you can easily recognize their original appearance."

After saying this, La Luna started talking again. After all, based on her understanding of the magic theories of the entire world, she could easily construct a new magic series through her own ideas, and this series was destined to be much more powerful than what humans had researched through self-exploration and exploration.

There is no way, the theoretical forms between the two are too different, and La Luna doesn't think that any human's understanding of magic can surpass hers.

"So, in your eyes, should the magic of the older generation be completely eliminated?"

The student thought about it for a while and then asked La Luna a new question.

"This is what I think. Magic used to be a basic structure derived from human self-research. Unfortunately, from the very beginning, this structure has completely confined magic to the limited understanding of magic by humans. It is too rigid and lacks novelty. If we continue to train according to the previous magic method, then the ultimate development of human magic will be nothing more than simply increasing the strength of the membrane force from a small fireball to a large fireball without considering the structure of magic."

"Yes, I also think that magic used to be boring. When I first came into contact with magic, magicians were so varied and interesting. But when I officially embarked on the journey of learning magic, I found that the facts were completely different from what I imagined."

The female student pouted a little depressed.

La Luna just smiled gently. Indeed, if it is the kind of magic demonstration that has not even been introduced yet, to some extent, it has indeed broken away from the constraints of the old generation's magic concepts. However, that kind of magic has never been recognized by the real Mage Association, because this kind of thing is not systematic and is only used for performances. It is considered to be a thing to fool children.

The new magic theory and system developed by La Luna can be said to be an epic enhanced version of that little trick, with clear entry indicators, future development directions and unlimited possibilities.

"Teacher, you may not know that the old guys in the Mage Association were almost mad to death when they saw the magic book you published."

The girl said to La Luna with a grin.

"Eh? My magic book?"

After hearing this, La Luna was immediately confused. It was true that she had started researching new types of magic a long time ago, but when had she ever published a book specifically for this purpose?

Not to mention publishing the book, she hasn't even received any royalties. And as for the Mage Association, La Luna had heard of it a long time ago, but had never taken this organization seriously.

After all, the real main force of all magicians are gathered at the Alris Magic Academy, and the Magicians Association outside has always been regarded by La Luna as a third-rate or even inferior organization.

But according to what the student said, the organization was quite unhappy after seeing the new magic system that he had developed?

"Eh? Teacher, don't you know? It's this book."

Seeing La Luna's puzzled look on her face about the magic book he mentioned, the student quickly took out a magic book with a very simple-looking white cover from his backpack.

Then I quickly turned to the side where the author's introduction appeared. Although there were no photos or character introductions on it, there was a shiny cat's paw print there.

“Ah…?”

After La Luna took the book, she flipped through the contents and was shocked to find out.

"Isn't this the notebook I use for my research notes and lectures at the academy?"

La Luna immediately knew who had done this. Who else could have easily obtained her notes and materials except Lilith who had ascended to the temple? !

This cat paw print was probably just found randomly on the floor in his own room!
