I have a Synthesizer

After the incident with the Sacred Mountain Beast, the train arrived at Grayshill, the largest city in the West, on the afternoon of the following day.

Klein had been here once before, so returning this time gave him a sense of revisiting a familiar place.

The academy professor leading the team, McKinley, also looked around with a spirited expression. He had been to this place before, but that was more than a decade ago when he was a student.

"Grayshill, a metropolis full of magic! I never thought that after more than ten years, I would come to Hogsmeade again as an academic exchange professor."

McKinley was somewhat sentimental and also invigorated. At his age, he was in the prime of his career, and being able to come to Hogsmeade as an academic professor was enough to demonstrate McKinley's talent.

You should know that the previous professor who came to Hogsmeade for academic exchange was Klein's father, Esmond.

Klein took the initiative to stand in front of McKinley, ready to lead the way for him.

"Professor McKinley, let's go."

"Don't be so polite with me, Klein. The dam sketch you gave me really gave me a lot of inspiration. You are a truly remarkable genius.

If you were my student, no, you could already be my colleague, you would definitely have an amazing development, surpassing me is only a matter of time."

"Professor McKinley, you flatter me. I don't have many strengths, I just like to study when I have nothing to do."

Klein said this without blushing or skipping a beat, just like it was true.

The two walked side by side at the front of the team, while the other students followed behind, curiously observing the streets of this magical metropolis, experiencing the differences between here and the imperial capital, Palomia.

When they were almost at Hogsmeade, McKinley suddenly asked:

"Klein, are you from the Royal Academy or Hogsmeade? I haven't asked before, but you seem to be very familiar with the Royal Academy, I always thought you were from the Royal Academy.

But now that I see you seem to be very familiar with this place, and even know the way to Hogsmeade, I'm a little unsure."

"Professor, of course I am from the Royal Academy. I am a third-year student in the Arcane Department, but I had the honor of visiting Hogsmeade once before."

"To be a contemporary with these students, not only joined Jessup, became a member of the Executive Department, but also proficient in so much theoretical knowledge, it's really amazing."

McKinley didn't hide his fondness for Klein at this time, but he knew that people from Jessup were unlikely to engage in academics with him.

Not far away, Marloza looked at Klein with some unspeakable feelings. Third-year, Arcane Department, it was really too coincidental. He was also a third-year student in the Arcane Department, but he had no impression of Klein at all. Was Klein lying? It seemed completely unnecessary.

Soon, the group arrived at Hogsmeade. The gate of Hogsmeade was still the two big trees cultivated with magical energy, and the students here were still wearing robes and holding wands.

McKinley came to the gatehouse, submitted his and his team's documents and academic exchange letters, and the guard immediately let the exchange students pass.

"Hello, Professor McKinley, right? I'm Woody from the Elemental Department of Hogsmeade, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

Woody shook hands with McKinley, exchanged greetings, and then led the exchange students from the Royal Academy into the Hogsmeade campus.

… …

Woody took Klein and the others to the dormitory area and assigned everyone's dormitories. The environment of Hogsmeade's dormitories was not as good as that of the Royal Academy, and the facilities in the rooms were not very complete.

At Klein's request, he and Lilith slept in the same room, Becky had a separate room, Eric and Joe shared a room, and the other students basically shared a room.

After the dormitories were assigned, Woody took McKinley to the place where the two sides would conduct academic exchanges, but these things had nothing to do with Klein and the others.

The other exchange students also stayed behind. They were exchange students, not academic exchange professors. Their role was to come to Hogsmeade to study non-combat magic theoretical knowledge and then bring it back to the Royal Academy.

The exchange students from Hogsmeade were the opposite. Their purpose in going to the Royal Academy was to learn the Royal Academy's fighting methods of mages and then bring them back to Hogsmeade.

Klein's team of five gathered at the gate, and Eric said with a smile:

"That is to say, after we get here, there's nothing for us to do? Isn't that great? We don't have to protect those students?"

Becky took out their mission reports and began to explain:

"No, Hogsmeade's security is still relatively good. Those exchange students need to study and exchange here for a year, and we can't possibly wait for them here for a year.

When we go back, we just need to bring back Professor McKinley and the students from Hogsmeade, the mission process is probably like this."

Joe also nodded.

"That is to say, we have a month of leisure time. It's rare to come to Hogsmeade, this legendary academy, we must take a good look at their collection of books, but I don't know if they have hidden the ancient books."

Klein was naturally very familiar with the library here, and his legend was still circulating in the library here.

"Probably not, their ordinary ancient books and ordinary books are mixed together, but it is difficult to find forbidden books in them, they should be specially stored separately."

"Brother, how do you know? Are you very familiar with this place?"

The others also looked at Klein. When they came, Klein showed a look of being very familiar with Grayshill. They didn't even ask for directions and just walked over.

“Yes, I've been here once before, so I'm somewhat familiar with it.”

“You came here? When?” Lilith was a little surprised. Klein's movements were usually traceable.

“Uh, around \u0026%￥#@, that time. Okay, anyway, we'll be staying here for a month. Today, let's all disband and rest.

Starting tomorrow, let's all familiarize ourselves with the environment of Hotzwoeg. Regardless of whether there are dangerous situations or not, it's always good to be familiar with the environment, just in case.”

“Yes!”

“Hey, did you hear clearly when Klein said he came to Hotzwoeg?” Lilith asked.

“No, I didn't hear clearly.” Joe shook his head.

“What about you?”

“I didn't hear clearly either.” Eric also shook his head.

“Becky?”

“No.”

Lilith frowned. She didn't hear clearly either. Was Klein doing it on purpose?

“Forget it, I'll ask Klein when I have time.”

After the team disbanded, Joe and Eric definitely headed straight for the Hotzwoeg Academy Library.

Needless to say, Joe worked very hard, and his speed of improvement was also extremely fast. Although Eric usually liked to play, he certainly wouldn't miss the opportunity to borrow some of Hotzwoeg's magical books.

Becky's choice was relatively simple. Hotzwoeg had almost no books or places related to warrior-type professions, so she and Lilith could only choose to cultivate their battle aura in most cases.

Lilith's situation was similar, but at least she had Klein. In their spare time, the two could also be intimate.

The others had left, leaving only Klein and Lilith behind. Klein took Lilith's hand.

“Let's go, the scenery of Hogwarts and Grisel is not bad. Do you want to take a walk?”

Under normal circumstances, Lilith would never refuse Klein's invitation. She smiled and nodded, then left the dormitory area with Klein.

As they left hand in hand, Marloza had just finished tidying up his belongings and walked out of the room.

Looking at Klein and Lilith leaving side by side, Marloza sighed faintly.

Lilith's heroic figure of killing the Holy Mountain Beast with a scythe lingered in his mind. That scene, powerful and beautiful, was simply the epitome of perfection.

“Still watching? They don't even look at you, and they'll be leaving in a month.” Another student in the same room as Marloza came out and said.

“What? Can't I even take a look?”

Although Marloza said that, he still smiled bitterly in his heart. He felt that people should always have some fantasies.

He looked at Klein, knowing that Klein should be the leader of Lilith and the other four. He just didn't know how strong he was. If Klein wasn't very strong, then he might still have a chance to catch up with Klein.

He was not far from the second rank. If Klein was also at the second rank, then wouldn't everyone be on the same level?

Marloza fell into a self-intoxicated fantasy and returned to his room to meditate seriously.

…

This time, Klein and Lilith could be considered to have let themselves go. Hotzwoeg was far from the Royal Academy, far from the Imperial Capital, and far from Jay's Society. No one would bother them. The two walked and talked, arriving at Hotzwoeg Academy Square.

Next to the square were some vendors selling special snacks. These snacks were really full of Hotzwoeg's characteristics!

Green pepper boiled Logan toad, magic earthworm mixed noodles, firefly ice cream. Anyway, Klein glanced over and there was nothing that a normal person would eat.

At Lilith's strong request, Klein closed his eyes and ate a bowl of green pepper boiled Logan toad.

You know what, this thing looks disgusting, and it tastes even more disgusting. Klein didn't care what it tasted like at all. Anyway, it was just unpalatable.

“Ugh! ~”

“Do you feel uncomfortable?” Lilith said with a smile.

Klein nodded.

“I feel it!”

“That's how I felt when I ate the bread you made.”

“Ah? It's been more than 2 years, you're not holding a grudge like this, are you?”

“You made me angry all the time back then, I wrote it all down.”

Thinking of the scene when they met on the bus two years ago, Lilith smiled happily.

Looking at Lilith's smile, Klein also smiled sincerely. The seemingly boring things they were doing now were in line with the definition of a couple!

The two walked out of the academy and wandered around Grisel, tasting various Westland snacks and watching Westland's unique magic tricks. They played until late at night before returning to their dormitory.

Of course, after entering the room, it was a different scene. The lights were not turned off, and the two started passionately.

Eric and Joe next door stopped meditating at the same time. Eric, with a bitter face, nudged Joe:

“Joe?”

“I'm here, Brother Eric.”

“It's the middle of the night and they're not sleeping. I think your brother and Lilith are a bit too much, what do you think?”

“I think so too, but my brother has a bad temper, I don't dare to say it in front of him. Do you dare, Brother Eric?”

“Okay, I don't dare either! But that doesn't stop me from despising them.”

“Yes, I support you, Brother Eric.”

After the two were silent for a while, Eric said again:

“Want to go out and play? My treat. It's not easy to come to Grisel once, how can we not see the exotic customs?”

“Hostess and models? Aren't you afraid the Imperial Princess will find out?”

“If you don't say it, and I don't say it, no one in this world will know about this.”

“Then? Let's go?”

“Let's go!”

In the dead of night, Eric and Joe quietly left Hotzwoeg and headed towards a clubhouse in Grisel.
