Candy Wizard and Travel

"Can you tell me the stories about your travels later?"

"Well...it's okay."

……

Fran didn't know where the market was.

Things of this level are no longer surprising, and there is nothing to say. After all, some people have lived in the city for half their lives and can clearly tell the location of the street with no more than two hands.

As a typical lazy dog, Fran certainly does not have the enthusiasm of ordinary women to spend half a day shopping. She only retains the curiosity of a traveler and has seen those strange things at a glance.

Looking around, she saw her disciple standing in front of a busy shop, with an animal smell that could not be concealed by incense coming to her nostrils.

Taking a closer look, it was a place for selling pets, selling domesticated animals, such as expensive cats and dogs, pet rabbits, foxes, and even a limp tiger locked in a cage.

She noticed that the disciple was staring at the rabbit in the cage, and his red eyes, which were darker than the white rabbit, were very focused.

Fran couldn't help but smile knowingly, thinking that she was still a child after all and had no resistance to those furry and well-behaved animals.

She saw her disciple take out his notes and start writing and drawing:

Roasted rabbit, chili powder, Sichuan peppercorns...

Wait, is something wrong?

……

"The products in our store are shipped from the distant East and are hand-woven from natural wool to..."

This is a shop selling knitted goods, and the clerk skillfully introduces their products.

Fran was completely distracted, thinking about the spicy rabbit.

Xidi listened carefully.

"Do you support customization?"

"Yes, yes, but it will probably take more than three months," the clerk replied dutifully: "Our products are really shipped from the East, so I'm sorry."

"That's it."

Pulling at the corner of the teacher's clothes, Xidi pointed to a gray carpet hanging in the middle and asked the teacher's opinion. The white silk thread on that piece was woven with complex geometric figures. He liked this kind of line very much.

"Teacher, how about that?"

"Huh? Do you want to lay a carpet?"

Fran was slightly surprised. She was not a particular person. Even though she had accumulated a lot of savings in the past few years, she still did not indulge in any extravagant habits.

"Teacher," Xi Di came closer and whispered, "As long as you clean this with magic regularly, you can roll it all the way from the bed to the living room, and it won't be cold in winter... You just need to put on slippers."

"Okay, that's it."

Fran agreed immediately.

"You can look at other styles. One style is a bit monotonous."

……

Describe the size and pay the deposit.

Next came lamps, small ornaments and other icing on the cake items. There were seven or eight scattered items. Finally, they were all sent to the Chamber of Commerce, and they planned to go elsewhere.

Within an hour, the market became lively. Neither the master nor the disciple liked lively places, so they just walked around the country leisurely as they said in the morning.

It's hard to tell who is taking whom around.

"This is the first time I know this place is so lively..."

"Look, little Xidi! That's an animal called a seal!"

"I met yesterday, teacher."

"Is this how it used to be?"

"..."

Xidi grabbed the teacher's clothes and asked her to turn back from the dead end.

As a traveler, Fran definitely wouldn't make such a fuss. His slightly exaggerated behavior probably meant that he didn't want to make him feel strange, and wanted to show that "Look, the teacher is just as unfamiliar with this place as you are."

Are you worried that he is homesick?

"teacher."

"Ok?"

Xidi looked up at Fran, who was much smarter than him, and took the initiative to extend her hand.

"To prevent you from getting lost, please hold my hand."

The witch's expression was stunned for a moment, then she narrowed her eyes happily.

"Okay."

Holding the little hand that looked too white compared to others of his age, the first impression was that it was a little cold. The weather was cold, and the child was a little anemic... Unfortunately, her hand was not wide enough, so she could only hold his finger normally. .

The fingers moved and moved, and it was slippery and felt a little unsteady, so Fran opened her fingers and clasped them, keeping the fingers intertwined.

It feels a little strange, maybe because I have never held hands with anyone before.

……

For a long time, the two of them listened quietly to the noise of the people around them. The frequency of conversations became very low. They even communicated with simple modalities without feeling embarrassed. Only when they occasionally encountered something of interest would they Go and ask passersby for advice.

They went around like this for a long time, until Fran felt that Xi Di was getting tired, so they summoned a broom and sat on it each.

Who is tired?

When the two hands separated, the feeling of warmth and withdrawal made Xidi feel a little regretful.

But it doesn’t matter, there is still a long time to come.

The temperature is rising, and I don't feel cold even when flying in the air without opening my shield. The sun is very warm, and it warms my back.

Xidi quietly turned her face away, and sure enough she saw the teacher's expression of laziness and enjoyment, like the black cat basking in the sun on the roof nearby.

After walking around a square, Fran woke up.

"Xiao Xidi, do you know where it is nearby?"

Xidi really wanted to say that he had been here a few days ago and ate a piece of bread that was very unpleasant to eat.

But he still followed Fran's words.

"Looking at your expression, I guess it's... Wangli Academy of Magic."

"..."

Fran was used to the feeling of not getting any feedback on this kind of puzzle, so she continued on her own.

"Yes, it's the Magic Academy. Speaking of which, I have to go to work tomorrow... It's so uncomfortable. The holidays go by so fast."

What are the people who do [-] days off and [-] days off talking about?

There is a splendid building in the distance. If it weren't for the surrounding walls and the conspicuous green gate, it would be easy for travelers to mistake it for a palace.

"That's where the teachers work," Fran clicked her hat. "At the same time, it's also the place with the most magicians in the entire country. Xidi, you'll be here tomorrow, so just keep some sense of expectation now."

……

Chapter 53: The Academy in Fran’s Eyes

After lunch, the things they ordered were delivered to the forest.

The people at the Chamber of Commerce were very qualified. They unloaded their things carefully and left without asking any questions.

It took a lot of time to organize and arrange. In order to avoid color conflict, some decorations needed to be changed in color. Fran prepared the corresponding potions and the progress was very fast.

"Wow, it looks like a big change."

Fran and Xidi stood in the entrance hall. After covering it with carpet, the overall feeling became more harmonious. They felt warm when they looked at it. It was soft under their feet and made them feel better.

After tidying up like this, the atmosphere of life becomes much richer.

After cleaning the carpet and putting on slippers, the witch sat on the bed with seriousness, and then——

"Hey!"

With a slight sound, she fell down, raised her hands above her head, and rolled all the way to the living room.

This scene really made Xidi want to cover his eyes. He thought the teacher was just talking.

"Oh, it hurts!"

Fran climbed up halfway, rubbed her hair in frustration, and expressed her feelings: "It hurt a little when I fell off the bed, and my hair was easily pulled when I rolled. The height of the bed can be adjusted. As for my hair...if I were like That would be great, Xiao Xidi."

"Please don't, hair is a woman's second life, and you should pay attention to your image."

Because of this, she was cut short, and if her beautiful black hair was conscious, Fran would have to be hung out of the window in the middle of the night.

"So I'm just saying, even a teacher wouldn't do that kind of thing," she arranged her clothes and said very confidently: "If I stay in bed, I won't roll down at all, and the rolling motion will be very tiring. .”

Xi Di was silent.

……

The dinner time Fran was looking forward to has passed——

In fact, she has been looking forward to every meal since Xidi came. It will take a long time for this novelty to pass.

While reading, she first checked her disciple's physical condition.

Everything is normal, but the flow of magic power is much sluggish. Even so, it is faster than most magicians she has seen, only slightly worse than herself. This terrifying reserve of magic power that can maintain magic throughout the day and still have a surplus of magic power. Frankly speaking, she sometimes It will give rise to the idea that "it is normal for such qualifications to be cursed."

Then it naturally turned to the discussion of magic.

"About the witch."

Fran took the tea prepared by Xi Di, huddled on the sofa, and explained in a logical manner.

"Even masters and disciples do not walk on the same path most of the time. Everyone pursues different things, so most witches only teach basic knowledge and experience and examine the students' attitudes and personalities. It can be said that no There are apprentice witches who are not qualified.

Well, Xiao Xidi is still too young. I want to wait until you are a little older before considering the issue of becoming a teacher. "

Each badge is handed over to the student by the witch who is the teacher. They receive it from the association and carry it with them for a period of time to let the magic breath in. After the student graduates, the master's hand is engraved with the name of the witch that will accompany her in her future life. Master and apprentice The magic mixed in one.

It's such a heavy thing that symbolizes inheritance.

She hopes that Xidi will grow up normally, have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, think independently, and be able to accept good intentions without being harmed by bad intentions.

These are also very complicated things for adults, and they need to go through many roads and see many people before they can gain anything. Fortunately, she has a long time to hand them over to her disciples.

Thinking about it this way, it is really stressful to be a qualified teacher and a leader on the road of life.

The witch picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

Well, it's the taste I'm used to.

"Then it will be hard work for you, teacher."

Sitting next to Fran, Hidi answered like this.

Of course he wouldn't mind, it would be better to say that he wished it would take longer.

"Hey, hey, I'll do my best, and let's talk about the academy next."

Fran came here two years ago and has been teaching students for more than a year. Among the many countries she has visited as a traveler, the atmosphere here is the best. The name of the college was changed some time ago, which also conveyed that "this country is very special." A signal that magicians are valued and welcomed.

If there is anything to say, there is actually nothing to say. After all, she works two days a week and five days off, and even the graduates she picks up on the road know more than she does.

"The teachers have very good attitudes and will say hello when they see them."

Skip to the next topic.

and then?

"The students are also good kids who study hard. Even after class, many students come to ask questions. They are very sensible and don't disturb me after school."

"The environment of the school is very good. The dormitories for students and teachers are spacious and beautiful."

When Xidi came here, she couldn't help but ask: "Then why don't you live in the school?"

"Because it's very noisy. The bell rings every morning, and the bell rings loudly at twelve noon. Isn't it bad to have your sleep disturbed?"

"Explain to me why you slept until that point."
