"Stop, stop, stop, don't do that, where are you touching that person over there?" Merlin was surrounded by a group of people, feeling so uncomfortable that he could hardly breathe.
When Merlin shouted, several girls in the crowd blushed immediately and stepped back. One of them just covered her hands and had a silly grin on her face.
"I actually touched my abdominal muscles!"
"Merlin, Merlin, we can't live without you, just like Azer Continent can't live without the Arcane Academy!"
“Wuwuwuwu—wuwuwuwu—”
No one knew who started crying first, and then the crying became louder and louder. Merlin's mouth twitched when he heard the sound, and he raised his fist and shouted, "Why are you crying? I'm not dead yet! I'm not dead yet!"
"Merlin, it doesn't matter if you die, but you must pass down the secret recipe of Lotus Leaf Beggar's Chicken!"
Merlin heard this familiar voice and jumped up and punched Fate in the face. "I think you are tired of living!"
Chris grabbed Merlin and yelled, "Stop hitting me, stop hitting me!"
Fate looked at Chris with tears in his eyes and said, "Chris, I didn't expect you to be so nice to me!"
"Hitting Fate will dirty your hands. If you bump into something, it will affect your ability to make the beggar's chicken in lotus leaf. If you really want to hit Fate, let me do it!"
"Yeah, yeah, we'll help you fight!"
"Fate, give me your life!"
Gah——
Fate rolled his eyes and said, You are really my good friends.
Merlin looked at the crowd that had gathered. Many curious students gathered around, wanting to see what was going on.
"Okay, don't gather here. It will take time for me to make the lotus leaf beggar's chicken. But don't worry, I will make it tomorrow and sell it. I will also have other kinds of delicacies."
When the people around heard Merlin say this, they looked at each other. Fate and Chris felt a little uncomfortable when they heard that they had to wait for a day.
"Can't you hurry up?"
"Yeah, after we had a bite of chicken, we never wanted to eat the pig food in the cafeteria again!"
"You're right, the food in the cafeteria is terrible!"
"Not to mention the cafeteria, I've never eaten anything this delicious at home."
Fate snorted in disdain, "What's that? Even in the royal family, I have never eaten food as delicious as the beggar's chicken in lotus leaves!"
"Ah! This must be delicious, can't we eat it sooner? We can pay more!"
"Yes, how much is it? Just tell me the number!"
"We don't have much else, but we have a lot of money!"
When Merlin heard what these people said, his heart ached. These were all glittering high-quality leeks. He also wanted to harvest them now, but he didn't have the strength to do so.
"Ahem, I know you are all anxious, but don't worry. The beggar chicken in lotus leaf that I made for you yesterday was just a temporary creation. The taste is not as good as the one marinated with spices. Good food needs time to settle. Don't worry, I will definitely provide you with this beggar chicken in lotus leaf tomorrow."
Merlin said as he took a purchase certificate from the feet of an owl that was eating ice blueberries nearby. "Please look, everyone. This is the purchase qualification for the Beastmaster Academy that I bought from the academy at a great cost. Just give me one day, tomorrow, tomorrow I promise to let everyone happily eat the Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken!"
The students gathered around him instantly, and looked at the purchasing qualification in Merlin's hand with great surprise.
Not everyone has the qualification to purchase from the Beast Taming Academy. After all, with this qualification, one can purchase powerful contracted beasts from the Beast Taming Academy. Every tamed contracted beast is a very precious existence, whether it is used to guard the house or to protect the children of the clan, it is a good choice.
But Merlin actually wanted to use such a precious purchasing qualification to buy the most ordinary chicken from the Beast Taming Academy?
Some students were curious about how Merlin got this qualification. Wasn’t it said that the Leo family had gone bankrupt? What kind of relationship did it lead to? What unspeakable secrets are there?
"Merlin, can you use this purchasing qualification to buy me a contracted monster? It doesn't have to be too strong, an ordinary one will do. I'll give you the money." At this time, a classmate from the Alchemy Department walked up to him and asked.
oh? Anyone want to buy a contracted monster? Merlin was slightly stunned. "Why do you want to buy a contracted monster?"
When the man heard Merlin's question, he said with an embarrassed look on his face, "It's the final exam time, and I haven't attended any combat classes. I want to buy a magical beast to protect me."
Final exam, combat class? How come Merlin has never heard of such a course? Isn't it just an alchemy class?
Merlin was suddenly lost in thought when a sudden wave of memories came flooding back, quickly changing his expression.
It turns out that in this Arcane Academy, in addition to choosing the courses of the academy, all students also have a course specially designed to improve their combat skills. Moreover, this is the true main course of the Arcane Academy, the kind that no one can escape.
Then why didn't Merlin know about it and never went to school? This is naturally because although this course has always been available, students are not required to take it.
Therefore, most of the nobles would not choose to take this course. Only those direct descendants of the family who wanted to inherit the title and make achievements would choose to attend the class.
After all, most of the nobles would never go into battle themselves, as they would have their own subordinates to share their worries. Therefore, those dandy young men who did not intend to fight for the family property, those who were not direct descendants, and only children like Merlin basically would not take combat classes.
Combat classes are hard, tiring, and prone to injury, so these pampered nobles will not attend classes.
You can skip classes, but you must take exams. And it is not acceptable if your grades are too poor. If you do not meet the passing standards, you will even be expelled from the Arcane Academy.
After all, the purpose of the Arcane Academy is to cultivate well-rounded students. Moreover, although the major countries have stopped the war on the surface, these nobles are well aware of what is going on behind the scenes and are fully preparing for war. In addition, the beastmen on the grassland are eyeing the human world covetously, ready to invade at any time.
The biggest enemy of the Aize continent is the demons from another world, but the cracks leading to the demon world have been suppressed by the armies of the major churches and the empire, and nothing major has happened over the years. But as the cracks in the other world get bigger and bigger, sooner or later the Aize continent will go to war with the demon world.
Therefore, combat lessons are very necessary and must be taken. Merlin felt overwhelmed when he thought about his magic level and combat level. He had never taken this combat course. His combat level can only be described as very bad, catastrophic.
