In fact, the game started before sunrise the next day, around five o'clock.

Because the early morning is the lowest temperature of the day, it can better measure the heating effect of fire magic. At the same time, the sun has not risen, making it easier to watch the appearance of the magic.

However, usually after finishing the process and awarding awards, it’s already nine o’clock.

"That...that, classmate Will. Although, although this needs to get up very, very early...in the early hours of the morning, but...can...can you come to our competition venue to have a look?"

Leah hit what she thought was her strongest straight serve!

but……

"...Teacher Leia. Although I really want to go, but..."

"...My practical exam is scheduled for tomorrow morning?"

"ah?"

"ah??"

"ah???"

Chapter 45 Before the Competition \u0026 Examination

Early that morning.

Will got up an hour earlier than usual - because he needed to get to school early to prepare for the exam.

but……

Even if he gets up an hour early, Yier can prepare breakfast for him on time.

Hot bread, fried eggs, and bacon have been neatly placed on the table. Today's breakfast feels richer than usual, and there is even an extra glass of milk.

"Good morning, Master~"

Ella turned around, her tail wagging, and faced Will with a bright smile.

"Thank you for your hard work. Today is the weekend, and I asked you to get up early and make breakfast."

Will sat down nervously, carefully cut the bread, dipped the butter from the side, spread it on it, and put it in his mouth.

It was soft. As expected, Yiel's bread baking skills were very good.

Although the bacon was purchased, it was cut very well.

The omelette was also fried to perfection.

The temperature of the milk is perfectly prepared. It is just mild enough to drink when you take a sip, not too hot or too cold.

"Well..."

Will noticed that Elle was staring at him.

"You...what's wrong with you?"

"Master, do you just have breakfast like this?"

"No, how else will we eat?"

Will's hand holding the fork trembled slightly. The System's family didn't teach much about table etiquette, which made him think about whether he had done something wrong.

"Isn't today the time for the young master's practical exam?"

"yes."

"The young master has been very busy recently. He has to go to Teacher Leah's laboratory every night to help. He doesn't even have time to drink my black tea, let alone training time, right?"

When Yi Aier said this, there seemed to be a bit of jealousy.

"Well...even though that's the case, the practical exam should have been completed a few weeks ago. I've practiced it a long time ago."

"Can……"

Yiel carefully pointed to the breakfast plate that had been eaten clean by Will.

"At times like this, wouldn't the average young master suddenly take out some blood-red jam, black-red drink, strange-smelling biscuits, etc., then eat them in one gulp without changing his expression, and finally tell Yi Aier this? Can this thing be used in such-and-such exam?”

Will was silent for a moment.

"Uh... Because you don't need these, you can pass the practical exam. The previous swordsmanship and physical tests themselves are to test the mastery of skills. The magic battle that requires the most talent is just a mere Felix. I will take the exam in my normal state. That’s it.”

He thought about it and realized that he was indeed acting too normal.

After thinking about it again, there really was nothing to prepare.

If I had to take drugs to beat Felix, wouldn't I be very embarrassed?

"Master, you are too normal, I'm afraid."

"...What do I usually look like in your eyes..."

Will paused and thought of an idea.

"Well, let's do this. Give me the bandage to use."

"Ah? Could it be...has the master's hand injury recurred?" Yi'er's first reaction was to move to Will's right hand and examine it carefully, "No, it has not healed well."

Yes.

The ointment sent by S was very useful, and Will took off the bandage on Wednesday of this week.

"It's a little surprise for my opponent."

Will casually tied the bandage on his right hand, but it was only a thin layer. It was more like a decoration than protecting the wound.

"Hmm...yes, there seems to be Leah's scientific research competition today."

"It's a bit embarrassing because of the time difference... After I'm done here, I'd better celebrate her winning the award early - with her ability, as long as she wasn't so nervous that she couldn't sleep last night, it will definitely be fine."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The time goes back slightly to two hours ago, when the 8th Flame and Flame-like Magic Research Academic Competition had just begun.

Leah, who was awake last night, was loading her scientific research equipment into the cart.

"Will won't come... Will won't come... Will won't come... Will won't come..."

"Ahhh, you shouldn't be thinking about this! You shouldn't be thinking about it when you were lying in bed last night!"

"But...he won't come today..."

——Although it is not because of nervousness.

"I can't think about it anymore. I just didn't fall asleep all night. I was fine even if I didn't fall asleep a few nights ago. I still have Blood Mint to support me today, so I'll be fine."

Leah cheered herself up, then handed the trolley to the competition staff for registration and transportation, and walked to the stadium.

Because flames and flame-like magic provide an environment for forging props and have strong attack capabilities, many outsiders participate in scientific research competitions on this type of magic, wanting to see if there are any new magics that can be used for scientific research. The dark arena was particularly lively in the early morning.

Leah sat nervously backstage waiting.

Occasionally cheers and screams could be heard from the front desk - oh, even an explosion of failure.

After eight years of running, there are still some accidents in this competition every year.

Oh, of course the biggest accident was actually Leah last year. Her attempt to moisturize things was completely unsuccessful, sending a patch of white mucus to the entire competition field - something that caused her to be laughed at by the vice-dean all the time, and occasionally she could hear her colleagues snickering when she passed by.

"No. 5, okay! Next! No. 6, spin and shake the Hot Wheels."

The host called out the number, and Leah took a look and saw that she was number ten. It still takes a lot of time for everyone to demonstrate and explain, and she still has time to do mental construction.

If Will had been there, he would probably have said a few words about the magic on stage. In the past few days, Leah has also discovered that his understanding of magic is quite good, and he is especially sensitive to the quantity of reagents. This is also a rare talent in the scientific research field.

In fact, there are many parallel imports of academic scientific research, and too few can actually be applied. Most scientific research is about useless innovations just to publish papers.

Because the bloody mint was among the tools at hand, her heartbeat began to beat uncontrollably.

Bang bang bang.

She raised her head and looked at the book placed in the most conspicuous place backstage, as the "reward" for the grand prize, inside the anti-theft cover - "Su Bing Formation".

Although she originally came here for the book,...

After these few days, it seemed that getting this book was no longer necessary, and she was not so obsessed with the book that her mother gave to the school.

She just wants to win the competition, prove that she is stronger than a year ago, prove that she can do the magic that her mother did before, and then let his eyes...

etc……

Let... let whom?

What are you thinking about?

Just when her thoughts were particularly chaotic, the sound of a cane hitting the ground knocked the chaos out of her mind, followed by an old voice coming from behind—

"Sister Leia, here you are. As expected, you still caught up. Do you still want to use the magic that the teacher likes so much to participate in the competition this year?"

Vice-President Mary, holding a cane, stood behind her and looked at her kindly.

"Yes. As expected, it's still my mother. It's simple enough to warm the house, and it's magic that can increase the upper limit of forging - the most suitable for this scientific research competition."

"However, it seems a bit unfortunate. The boy who has been following you these past few days seems to be missing."

How is she so accurate in stepping on thunder!

Obviously she is not a person who majors in lightning attribute magic.

Chapter 46 Hint, hint, hint

"However, it seems a bit unfortunate. The boy who has been following you these past few days seems to be missing."

Faced with this problem, Leah folded her arms and looked very resentful.

"Forget it. Who...who asked him to make up for his practical exam, which is scheduled for this morning. Well, anyway, those people in the Academic Affairs Office like to take exams early in the morning. I'm surprised, don't these people sleep in? "

"What? Are you worried that he will fail the exam?"

Mary smiled, like a kind old lady, slowly walked over and sat down at the other end of the bench.

"Hmph, who is worried that he will fail the exam? Although Will's talent is indeed average, his knowledge reserve is really strong. Although people of this age are not required to have practical experience, he behaves as if he has watched dozens of Ten thousand words of actual combat description are just as sophisticated.”

"And more... He is really suitable for scientific research. The dosage of magic and calculation of magic data are basically the shortcomings of students. Advanced magic mathematics is difficult to understand. But he is as familiar as if the magic data was written by himself. ”

"Let's talk about the opponent he actually fought against. A kid from a rich family who looked stupid and stupid. Not only was he tricked in as a companion for the exam, but he probably thought he was injured and was surrounded by him. When the exam comes, he will definitely be led by the same person. Let’s go.”

"And... when we were in the laboratory... ah... I... I said so much?"

Leah just stretched out her fingers, wanting to take stock of some of Will's wonderful actions during the experiment, and then stopped.

"It's okay, keep talking. You seem to like talking about him, and you're smiling so happily."

"Ta-not... okay. There aren't many outstanding students, as you can tell. The academy won't meet one in ten or ten years..."

"So? Don't you plan to accept him as your student? You have never brought out a graduating student, and the contract you signed with our school only lasts for four years. Do you really plan to not take him in?"

"Mary, you know... I don't want to. It's like my mother became your teacher."

Leah looked at the wrinkled Mary and sighed.

"For a witch... it's too heavy."

"Well...Sister Leah, do you know? When I saw the teacher for the last time, I thought she would be sad to see me looking so old after all these years..."

Mary spoke slowly, as if telling a story.

Leah knew that her mother had been to Entak First Academy, and the "Su Bing Formation" was probably left at that time.

"She...didn't?"

"On the contrary, she smiled happily. She said that even though I was so old, I was still as close to the pages of the book as before when I lowered my head to read. You know? I was so scared that I looked up at her, afraid that she would grab me from the book by my hair like before."

"Haha, that's right. When my mother corrected you before, she was quite violent."

"She said that she now understood the witch Ya'er. She had such a long life, but she didn't stop contacting the world and other people until the last moment of her life, leaving countless legends about her in the world."

"...Is that so."

"She said that when she looked into my eyes, she was still the same as before in my eyes. Although I have aged a lot, when she looked into my eyes, she still felt that I was the same as before."

Liya nodded.

"She has changed a lot. She didn't say that when she was with me."

Liya seemed to be a little hesitant. She looked down at her shaking feet and the pair of brown boots that she had worn for many years.
