The doors to the Arcane Hall of the Royal Magic Academy were pushed open.
A figure with long golden hair strode swiftly into the room.
Despite it being only the beginning of the school year, the Arcane Hall has already gathered many students eager to improve their magic.
When they saw Erica walk in, they all stopped chanting, turned to look at her, and their eyes gleamed with surprise.
Erica... the most talented student, is back!
At this moment, Erica seemed somewhat absent-minded.
She was indeed provoked by Henne.
The last time I saw Heni, she was just a second-tier mage.
Keep in mind, how long has Heni been a mage?
Including the time from the college's holiday to the start of the new semester, it's only about three months!
In three months, he went from a magic apprentice to a third-tier mage...
Is this something humans can do?
And her feelings for Professor Victor...
How...how could she be so bold!
This is an academy!
Erica grew increasingly anxious as she thought about it, until finally she shook her head violently and stopped thinking about it.
I came to the Arcane Hall to relax.
Erica noticed the students' gazes directed at her, but she didn't pay them any mind.
After all, she was already used to being the center of attention.
Erica strolled through the spacious arcane hall, trying to stay as far away from the students practicing magic as possible.
She looked around, somewhat surprised.
Surprisingly, there were many mirrors placed here.
The mirrors are attached to the walls around the Arcane Hall, with only a few meters between each pair of mirrors, and they stand there quietly.
Erica already knew what these mirrors were.
They are called...copies.
She walked up to a mirror where no one was in line, read the instructions on the top of the mirror, and was about to reach out and touch it.
However, the mirror unexpectedly began to tremble, like ripples on a lake.
Erica paused slightly, her hand hovering in mid-air before slowly retracting it.
Something's not right; I haven't even touched the mirror yet.
Immediately afterwards, the entire mirror, including its frame, began to shake.
Erica instinctively took a few steps back, and saw a strong and burly figure emerge from the mirror.
The person who was ejected from the mirror was dressed entirely in a white short-sleeved shirt, and even the hair and beard on his face were white, with weathered wrinkles appearing on his cheeks.
The old man's imposing physique was immediately apparent; he was incredibly strong.
Erica recognized the person who came out and felt that he was somewhat familiar.
Upon closer inspection, she was startled.
This is... Uncle Vladimir?
Vladimir dusted off the faint traces of dust on his clothes and laughed heartily.
Erica quickly stepped forward and greeted them:
"uncle!"
The students around blinked when they heard Erica address the old man in that way.
uncle?
Who would have thought that the old man who played with them every day was actually Erica's relative?
Vladimir turned around at the sound of the voice calling him and saw Erica, equally surprised.
"Huh? Erica's here too."
“Uncle, I am a student at the Royal Magic Academy. I just visited the academy with you a while ago.”
"Oh, I was wondering why you came along last time. Well, with your talent, you should definitely be studying at the best academy."
"Uncle, you flatter me."
Erica was slightly puzzled and curious about Vladimir's visit to the Arcane Hall, especially after he had just been vomited out by the mirror.
Vladimir laughed heartily, scratched the back of his head, and replied cheerfully:
"I want to try out this new and interesting 'dungeon' thing."
"I didn't expect Viktor's creation to be so interesting. Even I, an old man, am getting a little addicted to it."
He kept talking about how there was a Storm Dragon King in the mirror, and he boasted that he had been challenging it for a long time.
His fighting spirit was thus ignited, and he came here to challenge himself every day.
Over time, Vladimir became increasingly adept at tackling the challenges of dungeons.
I even have a feeling that I don't want to go back to the North.
Erica was somewhat puzzled.
She had tried the 'copy' developed by Professor Victor before; she remembered that it was the first version.
It was used as the first practical assessment for the final exam.
After learning more, Erica understood.
The mirrors in these arcane halls are only for practice.
The 'copy' feature has not yet been officially launched.
These are the reasons why these mirrors are placed in the Arcane Hall.
It is said that in the future, the academy will rebuild a new area, specifically setting up a 'Challenge Room' for in-depth practice.
Just then, countless students inside the Arcane Hall were drawn to the entrance.
Just then, a silver-haired girl walked in.
That's Aurelion.
She walked confidently into the Arcane Hall, her eyes radiating an air of nobility.
Many students immediately showed respect when they saw Aurelion arrive.
After all, most of them were descendants of noble families.
Upon seeing the princess, one would naturally instinctively show respect.
Some even followed Aurelion around like lapdogs, with a hint of fawning.
"The princess is so diligent; she's still practicing."
"Is the princess going to challenge the dungeon today as well?"
Aurelion completely ignored the students who were following her.
