MTL - He Holds a Rose from the Abyss-Chapter 2 so humble
From Chi Lang's point of view, Sheffield did not express any doubts about his series of actions.
Sheffield just paused after saying his name, and said with a slight smile: "I don't usually stay in the dormitory, but I only go back to the dormitory occasionally recently, but I didn't expect that Mika didn't know my name, it was my negligence. already."
Sheffield's words were very decent, and completely found a perfect excuse for Chi Lang's performance.
Chi Lang also thought that his performance just now was too abrupt, and it was a question whether he could pass the test. He didn't expect Sheffield to be so considerate.
Chi Lang murmured a few words at random and waved his hand: "No no no, it's my fault." He silently wrote down the name of the body - "Micah".
"As compensation, may I have the honor of inviting you to lunch?" Sheffield looked at him.
His eyes looked sincere and there was a smile on his face. Chi Lang was a little hesitant. He originally wanted to stay alone for a while and think about his current situation, but after thinking about it, he could follow Sheffield to see what was going on at the Magic Academy.
"okay, thank you."
The smile on Sheffield's face widened, and then he picked up a book on the table: "But I need to drop by the library to return this book."
When Chi Lang followed Sheffield out of the dormitory, he deeply felt that his proposal of agreeing to eat with Sheffield was too correct.
If it weren't for Sheffield, he might not even be able to get out of the door - the door of this dormitory actually uses a magic circle, and it needs magic power to open the door.
Chi Lang was deeply worried. According to the popularity of magic in this place, magic was used even on the door of the house. There must be many places where magic is used in life, so what should he do? Chi Lang thought about it, he could only hope that he could have this body's instinctive memory of magic, otherwise it would be really difficult.
After leaving the dormitory building, a row of plane trees was planted on both sides of the road. The leaves were intertwined on the top of the head, and only some fine halos fell on the ground.
Most of the students who came and went were wearing black robes, Chi Lang guessed that this should be the uniform of the college.
Chi Lang felt that Sheffield should be a well-known person, because these people who came and went, without exception, all stopped their eyes on Sheffield, but no one came up to say hello, which made Chi Lang feel It's a little weird.
But he didn't think too much, just thinking about the relationship between the original owner and Sheffield. According to Sheffield's words, the two of them should be roommates, but Sheffield doesn't go back to the dormitory often, so they are not very familiar with each other.
Chi Lang breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately the first person he met was not an acquaintance of the original owner, and Sheffield looked quite nice, with a gentle tone and a lot of smiles. Chi Lang decided to try and see if he could get it out of Sheffield's mouth. Pack some information out.
Sheffield suddenly stopped.
They were standing at an intersection at this time, and a statue was placed in the middle of the intersection, and there was a circle of sunflowers around the statue.
The statue is an old man, also wearing a robe, holding a book in one hand and a wand in the other, with a solemn and majestic expression on his face.
Sheffield's smile became a little strange, and he made a strange gesture towards the statue, and then Chi Lang discovered that all people in robes must make this gesture when passing by the statue.
Although Chi Lang didn't know the situation, he followed suit.
When he checked the information later, he realized that the statue was a magician known as the "God of Magic". In the field of magic, there is no **** of faith. The reason why this magician is named "God" is because his research on magic has reached the pinnacle.
—He is also the head of the magician who sealed the abyss demon a hundred years ago.
And the gesture they made was exactly the starting gesture of the sealing magic.
Although the cafeteria was called a cafeteria, Chi Lang felt that this place was not at all like a cafeteria. The hall is full of long tables, the long table is covered with a layer of white tablecloth, and several lamps are placed on the table.
There are quite a lot of people dining, but even with so many people, there is no noise. Almost everyone speaks in a low voice, even when eating.
The place where the food is placed in the cafeteria is a combination of several tables, but the variety of food is not very rich. In front of each dish stood a small sign with the name of the dish written on it. It was difficult for Chi Lang to identify what the food was from the appearance of the dishes, so he could only pick up "lamb chops" and "grilled eel" based on their names, both of which looked dark.
The rule here is to pay first after taking the food. Chi Lang's food was paid by Sheffield, a total of 25 copper coins. Chi Lang glanced at the copper coin, which also engraved the person carved by the statue just now.
And this also reminded him of another thing, he had to quickly count the property of the original owner, and then find out the price, first to see if his food and clothing was a problem.
Chi Lang sat at a table with no one else, and Sheffield sat across from him.
Chi Lang took the first bite of the food and felt that the taste was strange. Anyway, he couldn't tell what it was, and the taste was very bland, making people less appetite.
Sheffield asked him: "Why did you take these two dishes?"
"I saw that it said 'lamb chops' and 'grilled eel'. The name should be delicious, but I didn't expect it to taste so strange."
Sheffield smiled: "The two dishes you mentioned are royal meals, which are not available in school. They have the same names. I don't know what meat they are made of."
Chi Lang nodded with difficulty, and suddenly didn't want to eat any more.
Sheffield didn't put his mind on eating either. In terms of Chi Lang's performance, he didn't look like someone from this academy, or even from this country. Does that have anything to do with Micah?
He continued to test: "You don't eat in the cafeteria often, so it's normal not to know this."
Chi Lang felt a little strange: "Why...you know I don't eat in the cafeteria often?" Of course, the "I" refers to the original owner.
Sheffield put down the tableware, wiped his mouth, and said with a strong smile: "Everyone in the same grade should know that you don't eat in the cafeteria."
?
Chi Lang had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Last year's New Year's Eve, everyone attended the dinner, and you were the only one who had to go back to the dormitory... Say you go back to eat brown bread." Sheffield said hesitantly, "Then everyone knew that Mika had not eaten in the cafeteria for many years. , I kept box after box of brown bread in the dormitory."
excuse me.
Chi Lang had an indescribable feeling that brown bread was darker than the food in the cafeteria. Why did the original owner hoard brown bread.
"It seems rude to ask this question, but I'm still curious, why do you have a soft spot for brown bread, Micah?"
I'm also curious, Chi Lang thought. He hesitated: "Because...because of it...it, in fact, I think it tastes pretty good after eating too much."
Sheffield nodded, accepting his answer, but added one more thing in his heart, this person should have nothing to do with Micah. Is that because of magic?
Sheffield: "The afternoon class is 'Formula Study of the Principles of Magic'. Remember to go to the classroom early. Mr. Phil doesn't like students to be late."
What kind of class is this? Chi Lang is even more at a loss. He couldn't understand the name of this class, let alone understand this class.
It turned out that he really did not understand the class.
The only thing that Chi Lang is happy about is that he can understand the words of this world and understand the words, but he really can't understand other things.
For example, the course "Formula Study of the Principles of Magic".
After listening to this course for an afternoon, Chi Lang concluded that this course should be a combination of mathematics and magic. It may be derived from mathematical knowledge to derive magic formulas, although he does not understand these two. can have anything to do with it.
Chi Lang also has a wealth of mathematical knowledge, but the key point is that this magic academy is aimed at students between the ages of fifteen and twenty-two. There are eight grades in total, and Chi Lang is now a fifth grader. Before the Magic Academy, there are six years of general education to teach some basic magic knowledge.
The difficulty of Chi Lang learning this course is roughly equivalent to that in modern times he skipped elementary school, middle school, and high school, and then began to study advanced mathematics.
In this afternoon, although Sheffield was a helpful companion, he could answer Chi Lang's questions patiently and never showed impatience, but after Chi Lang asked many, many questions, he was really embarrassed to bother Sheffield again. .
Too hard.
He wanted to give up the class.
However this is not the end. After the afternoon class, they have an evening class - "Stargazing and Divination".
Chi Lang felt that although he did not understand the course "Formula Study of Magic Principles", he probably knew what the course was about. But "stargazing and divination" he really didn't understand.
A group of people were sitting on the lawn, and then a gray-haired teacher asked them, "Look at the night sky tonight, what do you see from these stars?"
What can I see besides the stars? ? ? ? ?
Chi Lang stared at the starry sky. The stars were still beautiful, but nothing else. Then he fell asleep in class.
Then the teacher severely criticized him and asked him to write a paper on "stargazing and divination".
Too hard.
He wants to drop out.
When Chi Lang finally finished the day's course and was tired physically and mentally and just wanted to go back to the dormitory to sleep, Sheffield said goodbye to him: "I should go to the library to check some materials, maybe I won't go back to the dormitory, you go back first Bar."
Chi Lang just wanted to say "yes", then made a jolt. Without Sheffield, how would he open the dormitory door with the engraved magic circle.
So he caught up with Sheffield almost immediately and said, "I'll go to the library with you, and then go back to the dormitory together, so... OK?"
Sheffield was stunned for a moment, but still nodded: "Yes, yes, but why?"
"Because I...I...I...ah, I want to go back to the dorm with you."
So humble.
I can't even get in the bedroom door.
Without any knowledge of magic at all, it is not because of magic that it will appear here. The thought flashed through Sheffield's mind, but he still had a mild smile on his face.
