But his perfunctory tone was not convincing at all, and the other party couldn't help but wonder: "Really?"

"Isn't it because you didn't like the hood being too heavy that you didn't wear it?"

"Although the pyroxene stone set is indeed very heavy, the pyroxene inlaid on it can focus our attention, greatly increasing our success rate in activating pyroxene magic, and it can also increase our reaction speed."

"Even though Reinhardt is indeed very talented and is a rare genius in the magic of pyroxene, wearing a pyroxene sheath at all times can increase your chances of surviving on the battlefield."

"Only by surviving will we be able to better serve the Kaliya royal family, the noble and great Queen Lenara, and the young Princess of the Moon Lani..."

"Yes, yes, Lord Gunther, I know I was wrong." Reinhard quickly clasped his hands together and interrupted the other party's long speech.

I don’t know how many times I have heard this kind of chattering. It happens almost every day when he is not wearing a hood.

The man he called Gunther was the most outstanding pyroxene magician in Razli's classroom, and he was also the teacher responsible for teaching them the magic of Kallia.

He is obviously a good person, but unfortunately he has a big mouth and is still a talkative person.

Moreover, this broken stone goggle is indeed uncomfortable to wear, it puts heavy pressure on the shoulder blades, and it is a bit obstructed in sight, and it is difficult to turn one's head. I really don't know what is so good about this thing.

"Very good, it seems you have realized your mistake."

Seeing Reinhard's silent expression, Gunther thought that the other party had realized his mistake, but in fact, Reinhard was counting the shortcomings of the pyroxene sleeve in his mind.

In his opinion, this stone set has no merit at all.

......

Time passed quickly, and the day's lessons in Razli's classroom had passed in the blink of an eye.

This pace of life feels very much like a university. For example, apprentices without hoods are young college students who have just entered the school, the awarding ceremony is the postgraduate entrance examination, and the magicians in each classroom are graduate students and tutors.

Although this postgraduate entrance examination process is too cruel, if you fail three times, you will be labeled as a waste.

However, just as get out of class was over and Reinhard was about to leave the classroom, Gunther suddenly announced new news——

It is said that the list of magicians who will go to Kaliya Walled City for further training this year has been released, and his name, Reinhardt, is on it.

This incident was quite surprising to him.

He knew that every year, a group of magicians from Razli's classroom would go to the Kaliya Walled City to garrison, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly. The list was finalized in just half a month.

And the most important thing is that it actually has his name on it.

Although he has a strong learning ability, he has mastered several pyroxene magics taught in Razli's classroom in just one week.

But...how to say?I always feel like something is weird, something is wrong that I can't explain.

Obviously, there are not only the newcomers like them in the classroom, but also a bunch of seniors.

They all chose this classroom because they hoped to go to the Kaliya Walled City to meet and serve the Queen.

As a result, none of them were selected, but Reinhardt, a newcomer, was selected.

I have to say that this incident still makes these people a little jealous.

But what they didn't know was that they were extremely lucky not to be selected this time.

Reinhardt, who also knew nothing about this and didn't know what would happen in the future, had returned to Se Lian's dormitory.

"Teacher Se Lian, I'm back..."

Dragging his tired body, he pushed open the familiar door with a look of helplessness and walked in.

But Se Lian was not found.

"...Isn't get out of class over yet?"

Reinhard frowned slightly. Normally, the teacher should be back at this time, but today...

"There must be something wrong?"

He didn't think much and tidied up the room.

To be honest, this room is not really big, but it seems like it will never be finished.

It was obviously fine when he left in the morning, but when he came back at night it became a mess. His speed of cleaning up could not match Se Lian's speed of destruction.

For example, the books on the table were all put on the bookshelf with great difficulty.

But now they are everywhere.

However, just as he was about to stuff the books back into the bookshelf, he suddenly found a note.

There is a sentence clearly written on it——

"Reinhardt, come to the magic training ground tonight."

23. The incoming assassin

"It's a bit weird. Why are you asking me to go to the magic training ground so late at night? I've obviously already finished learning the pyroxene magic..."

Reinhardt was walking on the road, muttering in confusion.

During this half month, although most of the time was spent on solving questions and remediating theoretical knowledge, I did not fall behind at all in the study of pyroxene magic.

From meteors to comets, he basically learned all the mainstream magic in the Magic Academy, and he even learned one or two of the exclusive magics of Haimo Classroom.

However, now Se Lian notified him to go to the magic training ground at this time, still using a note.

I have to say, it’s a bit intriguing.

What exactly are you planning to do?

Although he was confused, he followed the instructions on the note and came to the marked location of the magic training ground.

The Magic Training Ground, also known as the Pyroscope Magic Training Ground, is a place where magicians from the Magic Academy learn and practice Pyroscope Magic.

Of course, this is definitely not the only place in this huge academy.

And this is the one where he and Se Lian come most often.

However, when he opened the door and walked inside, he found that it was empty.

The not-so-bright pyroxene lamp emitted a faint light and illuminated the dim venue, but the training ground was empty at this time, and there was no trace of Se Lian at all.

"Teacher Serian, are you there?"

He tried to call loudly, but there was only his echo. There was a deathly silence around him, and the pyroxene lamps that provided light flickered on and off, as if they were about to be swallowed by darkness.

So, he took out his staff and shook it slightly in the air.

"Starlight."

This is one of the most basic pyroxene magics in the magic academy.

Small stars like stars were floating in the sky, and the light they emitted lit up the entire training ground.

However, everything that came into view was still empty.

He was the only one in the entire venue, and the faint sound of footsteps echoing on the floor tiles with slightly hard soles.

"Something's wrong."

Reinhard looked around for a moment, feeling more and more weird, and the intuition in his heart was urging him to leave here quickly.

It's not because Se Lian didn't arrive, but because at this time, it's not late at night yet, but the training ground is empty, even if there is no one passing by until now.

This is not normal.

And most importantly, he smelled an imperceptible smell of blood in the air.

I felt increasingly uneasy.

Reinhardt slowly raised his staff to guard the surroundings, and slowly retreated towards the rear door step by step.

At this moment, a faint sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded behind him.

call out--

Reinhard instinctively turned sideways, and a graceful and slender crossbow arrow almost missed the tip of his nose.

"Who?!"

Subconsciously, he swung out a few pyroxene stones with his backhand, but they didn't hit anything. They dragged their slender tails and dissipated in the air like meteors.

"Stealth?"

As the King of Elden for two weeks, he guessed the truth about the enemy in just a short moment.

It must have been some kind of invisibility secret potion, magic, or prayer.

Moreover, the shorter crossbow arrow just shot was not a meteor crossbow produced by Kalia, because the arrowhead was not inlaid with pyroxene, and its flight path was not like a meteor.

Since it's not within the academy, then who is it?

He never remembered provoking any enemies. If there was any real hostility, it was only Radagon, the loyal dog of the Golden Law, but even Radagon could not openly assassinate him in the academy.

What's more, if it were an assassin sent by Radagan, he might have lost his waist several times by now.

After all, Radagon and Malika were originally one, and the only assassins Malika could command were the Black Knife, which was formed by a group of rare people. It was also the strongest assassin group in the entire border area.

Could it be Selia's assassin?

In his memory, there were very few magic spells and prayers that could make him invisible.

Among them, the invisibility used by the group of magician assassins entrenched in the magic town of Celia in Galede is one of them.

Just as he was thinking about where the assassin came from, the enemy launched another attack.

shhhhh--

The sound of breaking through the air sounded one after another, and this time arrows came from all directions, as if they were vowing to shoot him into a hedgehog.

"Tsk, a bunch of bastards who only know how to hide here and there."

Reinhard smacked his tongue lightly, but he was unhurried in the face of the incoming arrows. Instead, he turned his gaze to an open space.

At the same time as these six or seven arrows struck, they suddenly hit the ground.

The whole person suddenly rushed out, rushing towards the open space at a speed that even the stars could not follow.

Although several sharp arrows pierced his clothes, he still had no intention of stopping. He rushed forward without hesitation, and pointed one end of the staff inlaid with pyroxene slightly downward, with both hands in a gesture of drawing a sword. Hold it behind your waist.

If it had been him half a month ago, he might not have been able to deal with such an attack, but after joining Razli's classroom, he learned not only Kaliya magic, but also conducted combat training every day.

He is now different from what he used to be.
