Chapter 205 Dormitory Allocation
For Shu Li, as long as he was admitted successfully, it was enough. He did not care which class he was assigned to. What concerned him most at the moment was the dormitory, and he did not know how to arrange it.
"You'll be living here from now on." Zephir led the freshmen to the Magic Academy's dormitories. "The boys will live in the building on the left, and the girls will live in the building on the right. Two people will share a room, and it's fully equipped with a study and a magic lab."
The magic apprentices followed Zephir into a vacant dormitory and looked around with great interest.
Shu Li turned around and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
He thought the dormitories at the magic academy were the same as the dormitories in his original world, just a single room with four people sleeping in bunk beds. However, he didn't know that the Saint Villiers Magic Academy was wealthy and the dormitories they provided for students were actually luxury suites.
One suite has two bedrooms with bathrooms, two magic research rooms, a study, a small living room, and is fully furnished with all the necessary facilities.
It is worthy of being the most powerful magic academy in the entire continent. No wonder magicians from all over the world are trying their best to get in. Unfortunately, the Saint Villiers Magic Academy implements a system of famous teacher recommendation.
There are nine freshmen in total. Nasha is a girl, so she naturally lives in the girls' dormitory.
Zephir took her downstairs and asked the female magician who was in charge of the dormitory to arrange her dormitory. The eight boys were left to choose their own rooms in pairs.
"Well...how do we divide it?" Desio looked at the two humans, Ace and Hector, and thought it would be best for them to live in the same room.
Unexpectedly, Ace spoke first: "Sperian and I will share a room."
"Huh?" Shu Li turned around in surprise and looked at his perfect profile.
Ace smiled and said, "We all stayed in one room on the way. We're used to it."
Zephir asked Shu Li, "Really?"
Shu Li felt a little embarrassed by Zephir's pale golden eyes. He scratched the back of his head and replied awkwardly, "Yes... yes."
Although Zephir didn't know the Elf King's intention, he had chosen this little elf, so he did as he wished.
"Okay, Ace and Sperian will share a room." He looked at the others, "What about you guys?"
The goblins and the dragon looked at each other in bewilderment.
Hector touched his cheek, feeling that he was being disliked.
"I can live with anyone."
As long as it wasn't that serious-looking black-haired boy, everything would be fine. Among the several mountain folk, only the one named Kumandi seemed difficult to get along with.
"I'll live with you," Kumandi said. The other goblins and dragons were simple-minded and easily revealed their flaws in front of humans.
"Uh..." Hector was frustrated. What he feared came true. The other party actually took the initiative to live in the same room with him.
"That's settled then." Zephir had been in contact with them for less than two hours and had a rough idea of their personalities. Among the goblins, Kumandi was the most stable, and it was most appropriate for him to live in the same room with the human students.
The remaining four were easy to divide: one for Desio and Budno, and one for Angel and Amanda.
"The rules of Saint Villiers Magic Academy are that all fees are waived for the first year. At the beginning of the second year, a magic test competition will be held. The top 30 students will be admitted to the official elite class, and fees will still be waived. Students beyond the top 30 will be divided into classes based on their grades, and fees will no longer be waived."
After assigning the dormitories, Zephir explained the rules of the academy to them.
"Excuse me, can we leave the academy and go to the city to complete missions?" Shu Li raised his hand. After a trip to the teleportation array, he had very few gold coins left. To maintain his image as a poor mountain dweller, he could not use the gold and silver mines in his storage ring for the time being, and could only rely on his own hard-earned money.
Zephir asked curiously, "You just arrived at the academy, why do you want to do the mission?"
Amanda said, "We are poor!"
I felt sad when I thought that all the money I earned on the road was given to the teleportation array.
Zephyr: ...
In his lifetime, he actually heard the dragon clan say that they were poor?
As the king of the dragon clan, Harmon has piles of gold and jade in his cave. When his own brother goes out to gain experience, is he reluctant to even give him money?
What a bastard brother!
Zephir looked at the young dragon with pity, thinking about giving him a pocket money of 100,000 gold coins every month.
No matter how poor you are, you cannot let your children be poor.
The goblins had no idea what Uncle Long was thinking, and they nodded vigorously in agreement.
"Yes, we were so poor. We finally earned a few thousand gold coins as bodyguards fighting pirates, but they were all taken away by the teleportation array."
"Although tuition and other things are free, you still have to pay for your living expenses!"
"Sadler said we could do missions around town to make money, and I thought it was a really great idea."
"Once you make enough money, you can buy better magic robes and wands."
"So..." Shu Li looked at Uncle Long with anticipation, "Does the academy have any restrictions on new students?"
Zephir instinctively looked at the Elf King disguised as a human, with a strange glint in his eyes.
No way! Even the Elf King is so stingy that he won't even give the goblins any money?
Or is this part of the training?
"Ahem—" Zephir said, "Normally, new students aren't allowed to go out on missions during their first three months of school, but considering your special circumstances, I can make an exception."
"Really?" Shu Li was overjoyed. "Thank you, uncle!"
Amanda and the other goblins said in clear voices: "Thank you, uncle——"
Zephyr glanced at Ace, who was standing next to him and smiling, and finally decided to cancel the pocket money for Amanda.
He shouldn't destroy the training that even the Elf King recognized.
Hector looked at them enviously, feeling emotional. This is what it means to have a backer to get things done!
Next, Zephir took them to a nearby restaurant, got a free meal card, had a hearty dinner, and then left.
The magic apprentices happily returned to the dormitory building and entered their respective rooms.
In the small living room, Shu Li asked, "Which bedroom do you want to live in?"
Ace said, "Any one will do."
Shu Li walked to the bedroom door on the left. "Then... I'll take this one and you can take that one, is that okay?"
Ace nodded: "Okay."
Shu Li pushed open the door and was attracted by the large bed inside. "We've been busy all day and are so tired. Let's rest early!"
Get enough rest and get up early tomorrow to go to the city to take on the task.
"Yeah." Ace said softly, "Good night, Sperian."
Shu Li waved at him. "Good night, Ace."
After closing the door and locking it, Shu Li immediately jumped onto the bed, hugged the soft pillow and rubbed it hard.
That’s great!
Finally, he has his own independent space and can sleep peacefully.
For the fairy, turning back into a tiny form was the most comfortable state. He often shared a room with Ace on the road, and it had been a long time since he had turned back into a small body.
Shu Li put away his original power and instantly returned to his small size. He crawled out from the pile of clothes, naked, flapped the gauze-like wings behind him, stretched his limbs, and flew around the room happily.
Just when he was flying with abandon, there was a sudden "knock knock knock" sound outside the window.
He was startled and stopped in mid-air, frowning.
Is there someone outside the window?
I quickly released my perception and spread it to the window. I didn't see anyone, but I did find a tree root.
root?
Seeing that the little elf in the room did not move, the tree root raised its root tip again and gently knocked on the window glass.
Shu Li showed a look of surprise, took out a set of magic robes suitable for a little elf from the storage ring hanging around her neck, quickly put them on, flew to the window, pulled open a corner of the curtain, and stood face to face with the tip of the tree root against the transparent glass.
[Oenomisis, is that you?]
"It's me, Sperian." The mother tree's gentle and kind voice echoed in his mind, "You are finally here."
I haven't heard the voice of the mother tree for almost a month, and I miss it so much.
[Sorry, Eunomia, for keeping you waiting.]
'No, you're a week ahead of me.'
"Well, if we hadn't used the teleportation array, we would have arrived at the academy a week late and missed the enrollment period." Shu Li said, "Thankfully, Danlov developed the teleportation array."
"Danlov is an excellent human being," the Mother Tree praised.
Shu Li looked at the scenery outside through the window under the bright street lights. It must be said that the Saint Villiers School of Magic covers a large area and has a beautiful environment. There is also a small green space for leisure near the dormitory building, which is full of plants.
The roots of the mother tree took advantage of the cover of these plants, wrapped around a nearby large tree, and extended along the branches to his window.
"Onomishis, how did you know I live in this room?" Shu Li asked in confusion.
A few minutes after he entered the bedroom, the mother tree began to knock on the window with its roots, as if it had been squatting outside early, waiting for something to happen.
"My roots are all over the ground nearby. I sensed them the moment you stepped into the dormitory."
"Oh, I see." Shu Li could only sigh inwardly at the strength of the mother tree's roots. "Then... can I use your roots to return to the Elven Kingdom today?"
He had long regarded the Fairy Forest and the Elf Kingdom as his home, and he missed home very much after being away for so many days.
I miss the Elf King, the Elf cubs, and the fruits on the branches of the mother tree...
By the way, he also has to purify the branches and fruits of the mother tree!
Thinking of this, he couldn't wait.
"Yes," the mother tree replied.
Shu Li opened the window a little without saying a word, squeezed out with his small body, touched the branches of the mother tree, and immediately crawled in.
[Go to Wanaku first.]
In the spatial channel of the mother tree's roots, he expressed his thoughts to the mother tree.
The mother tree understood and instantly teleported him to the branching trunk of Wanaku through its complex root system.
The time in Igya City is two hours later than that in Wanaku. Seven o'clock in the evening here is nine o'clock there.
When Shu Li's little head popped out from the branch trunk, it was pitch black all around, with only the starry sky and the silver moonlight.
It had been a long time since he had felt the thick dark energy. He frowned, carefully hid under a leaf, and took out his advanced magic wand.
[Onomichis, I will cast a purification spell on your fruit immediately.]
"First, cast the Purification spell on my trunk. It doesn't need to be too many, just three times will be enough. Save the fruit for purification tomorrow."
“Why?” Shu Li was puzzled.
"Night is when the dark elves are most active. Any noise will attract their attention. Just in case, we will change the purification time to 5:00 AM in Igya City."
Shu Li thought about it and agreed.
Light magic is too obvious at night and is not as safe as during the day.
Five o'clock in the morning in Igya City is seven o'clock in the morning in Wanaku, and the sun has already risen high in the sky.
At most, you just have to work harder and get up early every day!
After setting the time, he quickly cast three advanced purification spells to replenish the power of light to the branches of the mother tree.
Let's go!
After completing his mission, he did not hesitate to crawl into the branches of the mother tree and head to the Elf Kingdom.
In the freshman dormitory of the Magic Academy, the Elf King, now restored to his original form, stood in his bedroom, clutching several high-level magic stones. He closed his eyes slightly, recalling the teleportation array he had seen that day. After a moment, he precisely dropped the magic stones into the corresponding locations, condensed the element of light at his fingertips, whispered a brief incantation, and a beam of light shot out from his fingertips, landing on the ground.
The magic stones were excited and responded to each other, and a complex golden magic circle appeared on the ground, exactly the same as the teleportation circle.
The Elf King looked down at the miniature teleportation array, pondered for a few seconds, and then moved his fingers slightly. The magic array fluctuated and the runes changed, making it more advanced.
The improved version of the teleportation array is completed.
The Elf King stood in it, the formation was activated, and light came on, covering him. In the blink of an eye, the Elf King's figure disappeared.
The light of the teleportation array gradually dimmed, and disappeared along with the magic stone.
In a distant Elf Kingdom, in a courtyard, a golden magic circle lit up. In an instant, a figure appeared, with blond hair, green eyes, and a purple robe. It was the Elf King.
At the same time, Shu Li poked his head out from the trunk of the mother tree.
