The King of Elden does not die alone!

"Nothing." Mia smiled.

Se Lian didn't notice anything unusual and nodded: "Then I will teach you how to understand pyroxene now."

She drew a diagram on the blackboard that looked like a molecular formula.

"Each piece of pyroxene has a different magic circuit. They have countless starting points, but ultimately only one end..."

Se Lian's staff turned into a teaching stick, which kept moving over the "chemical formula". She pointed to a hexagonal shape and said, "This is a magic node." Then she pointed to the thin line connecting the hexagons and said, "This is a magic vein."

"All magic veins are straight lines. They only change direction when passing through magic nodules. Both magic veins and magic nodules have different characteristics..."

She drew a complicated table on the other side of the blackboard: "This is the summary of the 118 magical characteristics displayed by the magic circuits in the pyroxene magic, which was made by Master Azle and Master Lusert, the creators of the pyroxene magic..."

"You need to imitate these magic circuits in your body according to your own physique, and then you can guide the magic according to the formula and cast pyroxene magic. If you can reconstruct all the characteristic pyroxene magic circuits in your body, you can cast all the currently known pyroxene magic."

"The more magic circuits you have in your body, the closer your body is to the pyroxene itself, and the stronger the pyroxene magic you can cast. The pyroxene headgear and magic wand can also serve as magic circuits outside your body to strengthen your pyroxene magic."

"Let's take it slow, because no one has yet managed to reconstruct all of the pyroxene magic circuits in their bodies. At Rhea Lukalia Academy, students are divided into several large classrooms to learn different types of magic."

Se Lian was teaching seriously, and didn't notice that Mia was staring at her back.

The back of a person wearing a blue robe, immersed in knowledge, but looking a little thin.

In order to see the root of pyroxene magic, Teacher Se Lian pursues pyroxene magic with a pure spirit of exploration.

The place that lost even its name and became the 'Rhea Lukalia Academy' - the Royal Academy of Kalia, was controlled by the moon that towered above.

Not only were magicians who sought origins considered heretics, but even magicians who viewed the stars and the moon as equals were labeled heretics.

Se Lian wishes to revive the origin of magic, get rid of the majestic moon above, and change the academy that has lost its enterprising spirit and uses magic purely for showing off and pleasing others.

For this, she sacrificed everything.

Mia clenched her hands.

Teacher Se Lian, I will never let you down...

But in the future, I will definitely give you a better ending. I want you to see the source of pyroxene magic with your own clear eyes.

You deserve a happier future than becoming a magician ball.

Chapter 40. Days of Studying

Second update! 2.3k, so a total of 7K!

I'm really amazing.

-

"Well, that's it for today's class."

Se Lian removed the magic curtain that had been covering the two people's heads.

Mia can already create her own magic circuits, although she has not yet learned her first pyroxene magic.

But this is from zero to one, and she has successfully crossed the most difficult threshold.

Seren, who was very proud of Mia, also boasted:

"I didn't expect my student to learn to walk so quickly. It seems that the teacher has taught well."

Even a mature magician would occasionally show his amusing side.

The first class finally ended. Mia said goodbye to Seren briefly and walked out of the basement.

Night had already fallen.

Wilden kept his hands folded, leaning against the wall of stone steps leading to the surface.

"Is there any problem?"

He asked immediately when he saw Mia coming out.

"No!" Mia raised the pyroxene staff in her hand to show off: "Very good!"

The first day of class started a little hastily.

But under the patient teaching of Teacher Serlian, Mia has already absorbed most of the knowledge.

Wilden nodded.

Then he walked up the stairs in front of Mia.

Mia held Teacher Seren's old textbook in her other hand.

Se Lian gave this textbook filled with notes to Mia.

Although it is just the most basic teaching material.

After all, everything starts with the first step. You have to learn to walk before you can learn to run.

The notes in this textbook are enough for Mia to understand the knowledge smoothly without explanation.

Ah, Teacher Se Lian, you are so gentle!

Mia held a astronomical rod that was as tall as her in one hand and an old textbook in the other.

When I got outside, I found that the entrance to the basement, which was originally empty, had changed a lot.

As mentioned before, the entrance to the basement is in a 'room' that is surrounded by walls on all sides and has an opening on one wall, which is now an open space.

After the pumpkin soldiers demolished half of the wall, the 'room' became even more dilapidated, but Curry blocked the gap with boxes, carts and barrels collected from around the ruins of Post Street.

Now, this place is surrounded on all sides, with only a narrow gap, which can provide people with a safe place.

The changes did not stop there. Kale also used wooden sticks and a large piece of cloth he found from somewhere to erect a square ceiling on the ground, which was just enough to cover most of the open space and allow everyone to stay under the cover.

In places not illuminated by the ceiling, the dry firewood in the campfire was crackling, and the flames illuminated the surroundings.

The area above the basement has now become a safe and warm camp.

Curry was roasting some green lumps.

The three spirit wolves were also resting around in different postures.

Patch was lying on his side, facing the wall, with a pile of straw beneath him.

"You're out?" Kale waved at Mia.

Mia looked around: "What is this?"

I didn't expect this place would be so well decorated.

"After all, I'm considering living here permanently."

Kale explained optimistically.

A campsite for a long stay cannot be arranged in the same way as a one-night campsite.

"Stay for a long time?" Mia blinked: "Aren't you going to continue south?"

"I didn't say we're heading south now. We nomadic people also have to stop occasionally."

As Kale said this, he turned over the thing he was grilling.

Mia nodded.

I guess, actually, you want to travel with me, and you're worried, right?

Mia couldn't help but feel moved.

(Cary: Actually, I’m afraid that I won’t have free bodyguards anymore)

However, the girl stared at what Kale was flipping in his hands.

"What is this?"

Mia recalled the memory of Curry roasting the rat.

Roasting rats is because a lot of rats are killed... so this thing can't be...

"Miranda's Flower, there were some that slipped through the net, so I killed them all."

Kale answered nonchalantly.

"really..."

Mia sat next to Patch.

I looked back at Patch and saw that the heartless guy was sleeping soundly.

I guess he didn't help much when Kale was setting up the camp. He was simply enjoying the fruits of other people's labor.

"It should be about time." Kale pulled the green tuber of Miranda's flower out of the fire.

At first glance, you can tell that this thing is the receptacle of the Miranda flower, which is as thick as a cactus.

"Try it?" Kale handed over the tuber in his hand.

Mia did not hesitate. She was much more accepting of strange vegetables than strange meats.

Looking closely at the tuber on the skewer, the roasted surface was dry and only sprinkled with salt.

Take a bite.

It feels like a potato, but a little watery...

It's sweet, and together with the salt sprinkled on the curry, the taste is not that good.

"It would be better to eat it raw," Mia commented.

Just like white yam.

"is it?"

Kale took the skewer from Mia and took a bite, frowning.

It seems that he is not very satisfied with the taste either.

Never mind. As long as it’s edible, that’s fine.

I'll ask the wolf to catch some meat tomorrow, and then I'll find a chance to go out and get some wild vegetables. After all, the pot can't be just a decoration.

Got to find a way to use it, make some stew or something.

"There are more over there," Kale pointed to a place where there were a lot of Miranda tubers that had only been simply processed.

Kale cut off the roots and flowers of the plants. Apparently, he alone killed off the flowers that were still wriggling in the ruins.

After all, no one gave Patch weapons.

However, Mia now has the Stargazing Staff...so she doesn't need the spear anymore. Give it to him later when Patch is willing to fight together.

"Oh, right," Kale said again, "go out that exit, turn left, and there is a well that can still be used."

Mia simply filled her stomach and washed up.

Looking at the camp on the ground, she ran back to the basement, to Se Lian's room.

Se Lian seems to be writing something.

"Is there a magical problem?" she asked.

"That's not the case... I mean, can my companions come down and stay?"

Mia said shyly at Seren's door.

It's a bit embarrassing to make such a request.

But living in a basement is definitely better than sleeping in the semi-open air under awnings and broken walls.

"That's no problem."

The basement is very large, and Se Lian's room is just an extension of one side of the spacious basement.

"Thank you, Teacher Se Lian!"

Mia ran out happily and announced the good news to her companions.

So, Kale spread out the sleeping bags and mats for several people in the basement.

But the fire remained outside.

After all, the deep basement is poorly ventilated.

At the strong request of Kale and Mia, Wilden and Kale took turns to keep watch with the help of the spirit wolf.
