Chapter 12 "Excellent People"
As the soothing music gradually stopped, the eyes of teachers and students in the grand banquet hall began to gather in the direction of the podium.
In that position, an elderly man wearing a crimson mage robe, with snow-white beard and hair, and a golden unilateral spectacles on his right eye, who was dressed meticulously, gradually emerged from the empty air.
That was Andrew Victor, the dean of the Kaya Empire Mage Academy, the Grand Magister, the top alchemical pharmacist, and the honorary earl of the empire.
He just stood there like an ordinary person, but the magical elements of the entire grand banquet hall became active spontaneously.
Just like the soldiers being inspected by the general, they are showing their bravery.
As a senior student, Brand naturally didn't know why.
However, Andy's surprised voice beside him answered his question:
"Is this the elemental realm of the Grand Mage? It's too scary! Under such a magic field, I can't even condense a small fireball!"
Covering up the fact that he was a scumbag, Brand also echoed with a solemn expression:
"Yes! It's terrible! I obviously feel that casting magic here will be greatly hindered!"
But he was thinking in his heart: Andy is pretty awesome! You can now cast small fireballs!
Because the dean's "Elemental Field" shocked the students who came into contact with it for the first time in the grand banquet hall, and the entire grand banquet hall seemed a little noisy.
For Andrew, an old mage who has been the president of the Imperial Mage Academy for decades, he has a lot of experience in handling such a scene.
"Masters and future masters, please be quiet for a moment."
Mingming just spoke slightly like an old man, and then asked softly.
But for everyone in the noisy grand banquet hall, the sound was like ringing in their ears.
Under the voice of the dean, the entire banquet hall fell silent.
Although there was still a little whisper, Andrew smiled and nodded with satisfaction.
In fact, although Andrew is the dean of the college, he is more like a symbol of the college.
Although he has the greatest power of the Imperial Mage Academy.
But because he has a lot of personal research, he rarely appears in front of students.
In the past, various ceremonies, banquets, etc. were mostly hosted and delivered by the vice president of the college.
As a member of the royal family, the deputy dean is always able to handle all kinds of things in an orderly manner.
Although there was a suspicion of evading Andrew, he actually didn't care.
There is nothing more attractive than studying magic in the struggle for power!
Besides, without the support of the imperial family, whether he can continue to open the academy will be another question!
It's just some rights, not important.
As long as magic keeps moving forward and various new theories of magic continue to sprout, Andrew will be very satisfied.
——He is a relatively simple truth seeker.
Then, Andrew gave a longer speech.
From the development of the academy to the various changes in human magic, it then talks about the emerging cutting-edge magic theories.
The dean used concise words to describe to the students and teachers of the Imperial Mage Academy a positive development and continuous improvement of the magic world of Farnes Continent.
Ordinary students with great ambitions are already excited by the dean's words and are ready to contribute to the development of the entire human magic world in the future.
What makes Andrew regretful is that there are not many such students.
A considerable number of the students who come to study at the Imperial Mage Academy are descendants of nobles.
As descendants of nobles, many of them were attracted by the blueprint drawn by the dean.
But he will not lose his judgment because of his words.
——Nobles are more pragmatic.
However, putting aside the "empty talk" without any real objects to back it up, some of the information in the dean's words is still very useful.
For example, the Warcraft locust plague in the southern countries, the elemental storm in the desert in the east, the coming tidal year of the Endless Sea, etc.
No one would question the vision of a great magister. Through magical magic, they can observe what is happening in distant places.
Although this news is not first-hand news for those big noble families with backgrounds and channels.
But for the vast majority of people in this banquet hall, they had only heard of it.
Inform the family behind the news and make some arrangements. Even if you don't make much profit, you can avoid a lot of risks.
This is also one of the benefits that a student of the Imperial Mage Academy can have.
Unfortunately, many people have to say goodbye to such benefits.
Then the dean took out a small magic pocket.
Dense streams of light flew out from it and stopped in front of a group of candidates who had taken the final exam.
As the magical aura gradually dissipated, the stream of light turned into transcripts made of parchment rolls and fell into the hands of the candidates.
After seeing the content, the students' faces showed mixed expressions of sadness and joy.
Brand also couldn't wait to open the parchment in his hand and looked at the contents:
[Brand Holland]
[Evaluation content: Basic knowledge of magic, runic formation]
[Evaluation result: Excellent]
As On the background of the parchment is an enlarged version of the magic seal of the Imperial Mage Academy, which represents the authority of the contents of the parchment.
There were no unexpected surprises. Brand’s efforts this semester were summed up by the word “excellent”.
——Brand is an excellent person.
After carefully looking at every corner of the parchment, Brand's lips curled up slightly.
What a scumbag?
From today on, Brand will be an excellent person certified by the academy!
Thinking this, Brand turned his gaze to his surroundings.
The first thing that caught his eye was Andy who had come to him at some point, ready to peek at the "transcript" in his hand.
He must have just come up to him, but as soon as Brand turned his head, he saw him retreating with a guilty conscience.
There was still a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
After Brand discovered Andy's intention, he didn't mean to hide it and threw the parchment in his hand directly.
In the past two days, Andy has frequently questioned Brand's level of rune formation.
In his opinion, it took a few months to go from an ordinary person with no foundation to successfully carving runes.
This is an almost impossible thing to happen.
Even if it does happen, it will not happen to Brand, a person who already has such a face.
After all, people are always more willing to believe that the total amount of talent and destiny of people born in similar circumstances is equivalent.
As both descendants of nobles, it makes no sense that Brand is already so handsome, and he also has a rare magical talent!
Because Andy's jealousy of Brand has always been exposed in the sun.
Brand, who is well-informed, certainly understands Andy's little thoughts.
In fact, most of Brand's male friends in aristocratic circles once had similar ideas to Andy.
——Want to overwhelm Brand in their respective fields.
But unfortunately, everyone's luck is different.
Andy is the unluckier one among them, and who makes Brand a "magic genius"!
At least in the field of rune magic circle science, Brand's "talent" is beyond his reach!
