Cursed Doll

The sun rises as usual.

Early in the morning, Elena got up listlessly, with her eyes half closed, allowing the maids to wash, change clothes and dress her.

When all the procedures were completed, Elena finally woke up completely, and then she was surrounded by maids and walked to the restaurant to have breakfast.

In the dining room, breakfast was already laid out on the long table, including white bread that had been improved by Elena, warm sweet milk, bacon, fried eggs, and fruit.

Elena looked at the dining table and moved the seasoning bottle towards Leopold's position.

Elena had just sat down when Leopold arrived.

Elena smiled at Leopold: "Good morning, teacher."

Leopold nodded and sat down: "Good morning, Elena."

A new day starts with a good breakfast.

Leopold happily immersed himself in the pleasure of his taste buds.

"Teacher, can you pass me the salt shaker?" Elena said.

Leopold handed the salt shaker, which was closer to him, to Elena.

"Thank you, teacher." Elena took it with a smile, and gently touched Leopold's hand with her fingertips when taking it.

Oh yeah, the cursed doll transitioned smoothly.

After breakfast, Elena and Leopold walked to the classroom and a new day of study began.

The sound of flapping wings came from far away.

The pigeons raised in the castle began their daily flight training.

A large flock of pigeons flew over, turned neatly, and then flew neatly in another direction.

But a clumsy little pigeon fell behind, and when it turned the corner it flew too low, into the corridor, and flew over the heads of Elena and Leopold.

A piece of unidentified object fell down.

With a bang, it fell accurately on Leopold's shoulder.

Leopold: ...

Elena: ...(holding back) chuckle...(holding back) chuckle.

Leopold glanced at her calmly and said, "You might as well smile more generously, it's so unpleasant."

"Hahahahahahahaha." Elena laughed very loudly as he wished.

Leopold turned and walked away.

Elena quickly shut up and followed: "Teacher, teacher, let me help you clean up."

"No." Leopold refused coldly.

"Yes, yes." Elena immediately cast a few cleaning spells, and Leopold's shoulders were clean.

Leopold continued to walk back.

Elena followed for a few steps, and suddenly she understood: "Teacher, let's go to the capital. I'll buy you some new wizard robes."

Leopold paused. “If you buy something, you’ll have to wait for days. It’s better to make it yourself.”

He is a great wizard, so he naturally wears a high-level wizard robe. High-level wizard robes need to be enchanted, so one needs to wait for it, as there are no ready-made ones.

As for why he was hit by pigeon droppings even though he was wearing a high-level wizard robe?

That's of course because he wasn't wearing a high-level wizard robe today, but an ordinary wizard robe.

Leopold only had two sets of high-level wizard robes. Although the high-level wizard robes were enchanted, the magic power would be consumed every time they were worn. In this peaceful and ordinary town of Fison where nothing major could happen, there was naturally no need to wear high-level wizard robes.

So, Leopold is clearly wearing an ordinary wizard robe, and it is an ordinary wizard robe that is soiled, but he says "it will take several days to buy it", what does it mean?

Of course, it’s because what he wants to buy is a high-level wizard robe.

It was rare that a student who was a lord would take the initiative to buy him a wizard robe, and this lord's student was also very rich, so of course he would buy him a good one.

Leopold felt that his request was not excessive at all.

Elena nodded readily, mainly because she didn't know the price of the high-level wizard robe, so she agreed quickly.

However, Mr. Leopold seemed to have just said, "Do it yourself"?

"How do we do it? Do we buy ordinary wizard robes and then enchant them ourselves? Or do we have to make the wizard robes ourselves?" Elena asked.

Leopold looked at her intently.

Elena:???

"I heard you designed your own dress?" Leopold asked.

Elena nodded: "Yes." There is nothing to hide. Instead, she should show off. This is also her talent.

As soon as she nodded, Elena understood.

"Okay, teacher, I will design a wizard robe for you right away." Elena said with a smile.

Isn't it just designing a wizard robe? There are so many styles in the game, so just copy it, no, just borrow one. As for enchanting, it's simple. She will pay for some magic gems and let the teacher enchant it herself.

So when you calculate the cost of the whole set, isn’t it just the money to buy a few magic gems?

It’s a good deal.

The two of them were almost at the classroom. If they wanted to design a wizard robe, they would go straight to the classroom.

Turning back to the classroom, Elena took out paper and a quill and just drew a few lines.

Hey, wait, doesn’t she want to see the teacher in trouble today?

How come I end up having to pay money for the teacher to make a high-level wizard robe?

Who is the one who suffers the loss and is unlucky?

Elena was a little depressed.

Could it be that because the level gap was too big, the cursed doll she made not only had no effect, but was backfired on her?

As soon as this thought came to her mind, the feather pen in her hand drew a very faint light, but no one noticed.

At the other end of the classroom, Leopold was reading a book while waiting for the pattern of his new wizard robe.

After watching for a while, he felt a little thirsty, so he picked up the teapot beside him and poured himself a cup of tea.

Snap, the handle of the teapot suddenly broke.

Seeing that a pot of tea was about to pour out, Leopold quickly cast a spell to block the tea back.

The tea flowed back into the teapot obediently, and the teapot stood steadily on the table. However, the teapot was incomplete and the handle was broken.

Leopold looked at the handle in his hand, then at the teapot in front of him.

Or, stick it back?

A small flame appeared at the tip of his finger. Leopold wanted to heat the handle and then pressed it back onto the teapot.

Then for some reason, his hands were particularly disobedient today, as if they had their own ideas.

When Elena finished drawing the pattern and turned around, she saw a strangely twisted object in the teacher's hand. A teapot?

Leopold put the teapot down awkwardly and covered his face with his hands, which only made it more obvious.

Well, based on the patterns on this strange object, Elena was sure that it was indeed a pot, a teapot.

The teacher still has a childlike heart. When she is bored, she even plays with the teapot, just like when she was a child and cut the eraser when she was bored in class.

Leopold explained dryly, "Well, the handle of this teapot suddenly broke, and I wanted to heat it up and press it back together, and then, it turned out like this."

Oh, it turns out that I am a clumsy person. I can do it when I see it, but I fail when I try it.

Elena nodded in understanding. Even though the teacher is a great wizard who can make potions, create magic scrolls, and build teleportation arrays, it turns out that this is what manual work is like.

It seems that the teacher's path to promotion is not smooth, but full of ups and downs. He has learned so many things, and I don't know how much effort and tears he has put in.

Elena felt sympathy.

Leopold, unaware that his students were pitying him, was still asserting his authority as a teacher: "I accidentally broke the teapot. I'll compensate you with a better set later."

If the teapot is broken, the whole set of tea sets cannot be used. If you want compensation, you have to pay for a whole set.

Elena smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, it's just a tea set. Teacher, take a look at the wizard robe I designed first, is it nice?"

As she spoke, she handed over the drawing in her hand.

Leopold took it and took a look at it. Although he didn't say anything, his micro-expression showed that he liked it.

"Teacher, have you decided what kind of magic gems you want to buy?" Elena blinked. "Why don't we let the tailor make the mage robes first, and then we can go back to the capital to buy the magic gems."

Leopold nodded and said, "I've thought about it." Then he said a string of gem names.

Elena didn't say anything, but just looked at him expectantly with her big green eyes.

Leopold: ...

After a moment's thought, Leopold knew what Elena was thinking.

She wanted to go to the royal capital and go shopping.

He had just broken her tea set, and now he liked the wizard robe she designed. Then he asked her to pay for magic gems. No matter how thick-skinned Leopold was, he was embarrassed to refuse her expectations.

"Let's go to the capital."

Yes! Elena jumped up happily.

Finally no classes today!

Through the teleportation array, Elena and Leopold arrived at the Royal Magic Academy in an instant.

Elena stepped out of the teleportation array and turned to ask Leopold, "Teacher, should we walk to the academy gate now, or is there another teleportation array that can take us directly to the royal capital?"

Ever since she returned to Fessen Town, she has been busy studying and has never used the teleportation array again, so she really doesn't know.

Leopold said, "The royal capital has strict controls on magic. Our academy has not established a teleportation array in the royal capital."

"Besides," Leopold shook his wizard robe, "the capital is so close, and as teachers and students of the Royal Magic Academy, we don't need it."

Elena understood that she could use various spells to fly into the royal capital in a matter of minutes.

"Okay, let's go." Leopold casually swiped his fingers, and a strong force emerged from the ground, wrapping him and Elena and flying towards the entrance of the academy.

However, after flying for just a few seconds, Leopold was stopped.

"When will you submit your lab report?" A thunder roared directly at Leopold, and the great wizard floating in the air opposite glared at Leopold.

Leopold's face changed noticeably.

I feel a little annoyed and even a little guilty.

Elena poked her head out from behind Leopold and saw that it was the great wizard, Ansiel, one of the four witnesses at her apprenticeship ceremony. He was the dean's apprentice and her senior brother. He looked gentle and polite, but spoke bluntly and without giving anyone face.

Ansiel saw her too.

Elena raised a cute smile and waved at him: "Hi, brother, long time no see, how are you recently?"

Ansel nodded at her, his expression and tone much calmer. "Hello, Elena. I'm not doing well. There's a shameless guy who keeps delaying lab reports, and it's really upsetting me."

Leopold coughed twice and winked, reminding Ansel to save him some face.

Ansiel rolled his eyes at him but said nothing more.

Leopold was caught red-handed by Ansel, and there was no way to dodge. He could only turn around and say to Elena, "Go buy me some magic gems. I want a level 5 agility gem, a level 5 defense gem, a level 5 wind gem, a level 5 fire gem..."

Leopold mumbled a string of gems, a total of six magic gems.

Elena nodded as she listened, memorizing the types of gems in her mind.

Ansel, who was listening in on the side, couldn't help but ask, "Alright, are you done?"

Leopold was so stressed out that he lost his temper. "Alright, alright, I've got it all figured out. I'm going with you now. Even if I have to stay up all night to finish the lab report, I'll give it to you. Don't worry."

Ansiel snorted, "You said the same thing half a month ago."

Leopold was dragged away by Ansiel.

Elena waved goodbye to the two figures going away, and only laughed out loud when they were out of sight.

I never thought that there would be a day when teachers would be asked to do homework.

Elena looked up at the sky. The sky was so blue today and the weather was so nice.

Hey, no class today.

If Leopold is unlucky enough, he might not have to go to class tomorrow morning.

Hehe, today is a really good day.

Elena happily went to visit the capital, but Leopold had a day of collapse.

After being locked up in the laboratory by Ansel, Leopold indeed planned to spend a day diligently and conscientiously organizing information, making lists and drawing diagrams, and writing reports.

But it was really weird. He clearly remembered that the information was placed in this drawer. He even locked it with magic. However, he turned the whole table upside down and still couldn't find it.

Then he used detection skills and actually found it in the gap behind the table. Isn't this weird?

Then he started drawing again. His hands were really disobedient today. They seemed to have their own ideas. The drawings he made were like those of a beginner. The lines were so twisted that it was unbearable to look at. He tore up one piece of paper after another and drew one after another. His hands were almost broken.

He finally finished drawing the picture, but then Ansel came to deliver the meal. When he took it, he accidentally spilled the vegetable soup, and the soup soaked his drawing.

Leopold was nearly in a magical riot at that time.

Ansel forcefully pushed him down and gave him some rare comfort, telling him to take his time and not to rush. If he couldn't finish it today, there was still tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

Leopold: ...are you sure this is comforting???

On the other hand.

Elena hailed a carriage outside the gate of the Royal Magic Academy, took it to the royal capital, and then focused on visiting the magic market.

Today, in addition to buying magic gems, she also wants to inquire about the market prices of various materials for the teleportation array, because she wants to upgrade the two-way teleportation array between Fessen Town and the Royal Magic Academy into a teleportation array that can transport bulk goods. This will make it much more convenient in the future whether she is doing business shipping or buying things.

If the business is good and enough money is earned, it is not impossible to build a few more teleportation arrays between the town of Fessen and big cities.

As Elena was walking around, she saw a magic pet shop in the magic market.

Magic pet shop?

Elena's eyes lit up. Magic pet = magical beast. She stepped into the magic pet shop.

"Sir, what kind of magical pet do you want?" The clerk came up to him with a smile on his face.

Elena glanced around. Although there was a special smell in the store that belonged to animals, there were no cages displayed on the surface. Perhaps the magical pets were kept somewhere else.

"What magical pets do you have here?" Elena asked casually.

The clerk immediately handed over a large booklet: "Please take a look at this, sir."

Elena took it, flipped through it, and asked as she turned it over, "I want to ask, do you sell ordinary monsters in your store? For example, spiked bulls, steel-shackled boars, etc."

Spiked Bull and Shackled Boar are both common monsters. They are not of high level and do not look cute, but their meat is delicious and they are very popular ingredients.

Elena wants to update the menu for Wonderful Garden.

The clerk replied: "I'm sorry, sir, our store does not sell ordinary magical beasts, spiked bulls and steel-shackled boars. You need to go to the market to have a look." This kind of magical beast, which is not cute, smart, or particularly useful, is not within the scope of magical pets.

"Oh." Elena returned the booklet to the clerk with some disappointment. "Your store has a pretty complete selection of magical pets, but I want to buy the Spiked Bull and the Shackled Boar. Sorry."

The clerk still smiled and said, "It's okay. If you want to buy a magical pet next time, you can come to our store again."

The clerk handed over a small wooden sign and said, "This is the name of our store. Welcome to visit us next time."

Elena took the small wooden sign with the store name and address printed on it.

"Okay." Elena said with a smile.

Just as she turned around and was about to leave the magic pet shop, a man suddenly ran in hurriedly and almost bumped into Elena. Elena moved to the side in time and passed by the man.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The man apologized hurriedly, but did not stop and ran to the back of the store.

"Boss, boss, have you seen my wallet?" The man leaned on the counter anxiously and asked the shop owner sitting inside.

Lost your wallet?
