Chapter 61 Although this is a warrior's text, everyone wants to be a mage
The year 832 was a tumultuous year for the inhabitants of Moldavia, with the beginning of the year being extra long due to the aftermath of the Kuroshio, and if it weren't for the fact that the Lord's Mansion exempted the hunters and the villagers who lived in the mountains, and even gave assistance, many of them might have faced the empty forest and survived a dark and hungry winter.

However, the new lord came to power and carried out a series of reforms, which made everyone feel that he was different, and the young lord named Joshua Van Radcliffe not only carried out large-scale paving and infrastructure construction throughout the territory, but also attracted a batch of investment from nowhere, and launched two major projects near the snow-capped mountains of Nissière.
Sometimes, spending money on infrastructure is not pure consumption, and the more employment and consumption brought by large-scale construction have a great effect on the economy of the territory, plus the lord seems to pay attention to education, opening a lot of basic schools, and inviting many learned scholars to be teachers, so that most of the children stay in school for a day, and part of the labor force that is bound to the home because of the children is also liberated.
The main city of Moldavia, the Tavern of the Broken Sword.
This fairly famous tavern is owned by an elderly half-elf ranger who lost a hand in an adventure forty years ago, so he quit the dangerous business and opened it with a decent honorarium. This ranger used to have the strength of the silver high-level, although the severed hand made him lose part of his combat effectiveness, but the superb throwing knife throwing skills still made many young people dare not make a mistake, perhaps because of the common topic, many adventurers or mercenaries are frequent customers of this tavern, and the half-elf bartending technology can also make them feel satisfied.
Today is the year of the fall of the star, February 14, another snowstorm, heavy snow blocked the road to the outside world, many bounty hunters and adventurers who are ready to go to the Black Forest to find the mission target can only regretfully adjust the itinerary, go to familiar places to drink and chat, to pass the time.
So at this time, there were many people in the Broken Sword Tavern, and under the dim pyroxene light, the voices were boiling.
But the strange thing is that these people are all talking about the same thing.
"My friend, are you sure you're mistaken?"
A middle-aged man with a big beard sitting by the window held a wine glass half an arm's high, and said to his companion in front of him with a serious face: "That adult is going to open a magic academy?" Are you sure that's what the municipal news says? ”
"Of course, don't look at me with that suspicion."
Wearing a leather armor, the young half-elf sitting opposite answered the other party's question without hesitation, and snatched the wine glass in the middle-aged man's hand and took a sip of it himself, he shook his head and said: "This news, it really can't be more true, there is still the lord's coat of arms on the announcement, your memory is still not clear?" Absolutely, yes! ”
As if shocked by this news, the middle-aged man touched his beard, and he didn't have time to get angry with his companion who snatched his wine, he frowned and thought: "Something is wrong, here in our northland, there are a lot of powerful knights, warriors, and archers, and you can find seven or eight by looking around, and most of the people's bloodline inheritance and talent are in this area, and it is convenient to find teachers, why did you come to a magic academy?" ”
"Hell knows."
After drinking the wine in the wine glass in one gulp, the half-elf looked indifferent: "Anyway, I plan to let my children try their entrance test, if they are talented, then it doesn't matter if they don't follow me as an archer, anyway, that stinky boy doesn't want to practice...... After all, my ancestors have elven blood, maybe they can really produce a mage master. ”
"Your boy?" Hearing this, the middle-aged man said strangely: "Isn't magic played by those rich people?" How did you come up with this idea? I advise you not to throw all your savings ......"
"Hahaha, it won't." Interrupting the other party's words, the half-elf laughed and said: "I asked the guards who sent the message, and they said that as long as you are a resident of Moldavia, you can go to take a free test with your documents, and I heard that the tuition fee is not expensive, at least it is worth fighting!" ”
"yes, that's ......"
The middle-aged man, caught up in thought, the test doesn't cost money, and the tuition fee is not expensive, if the conditions are so superior...... Then he also wants to give his own children a try.
After all, that's a mage, mysterious magic, who wouldn't want to try it? They have already tasted the hardships of ordinary professionals, even if they are mages, they have endured hardships, at least they have not tasted hardships.
Not only them, but everyone else around them was also discussing the truth of the news, and as time went on, the whole city knew about it.
And in the north of the city, the scholar's home, the study.
The young boy Ivan and his sister Amira are learning a series of things about the profession under the guidance of their grandfather.
As young children, what they need now is not high-intensity exercise, but they need to know what they are good at, what they want to do in the future, and before they really start working hard, they must understand the advantages and disadvantages of each profession and make their own choices.
Although Edward is just an ordinary scholar, he also knows a hand or two of magic, and has participated in several adventures, and he clearly knows that if he wants to go further on the road of the strong, the foundation must be solid and solid, and this solidity is not only the physical condition, but also the spiritual thoroughness.
Knowing what you want, what your future goals are, and also knowing what you are good at, with such self-knowledge, even if you have bad talent, at least you will not waste time and go down the wrong path.
"Sir!"
With the sound of heavy footsteps, the tall and sturdy maid came to the outside of the study, and began to knock eagerly on the door, her hand was so strong that it felt like she was about to break the door, and the children and Edward who were studying hard could not help but be startled.
"It's coming, it's coming...... Naka, tap the door next time. ”
Although he was a little annoyed that the other party interrupted Ivan and Amira's study, the old man also knew that his maid had never lost his temper after so many years, and since the reaction was so big, there must be important news.
And as soon as he opened the door, the maid named Naka pulled the old man out of the door with a happy face: "Master, look at it, good news! ”
"Oh, my old bones, what's that makes you so excited...... Wait a minute?! ”
Touching his waist, Edward took the notice in Naka's hand, and looked at it with a frown, he was a little complaining at first, but he didn't have time to think about anything else later, but concentrated on reading the notice above: "Academy of Magic? The possibility of expanding into a multi-vocational vocational academy is not ruled out? Locals in Moldavia are exempt from testing fees and tuition fees are also discounted? This ......"
"Generous and merciful lords......"
Taking a deep breath to calm his mind, Edward closed his eyes and calmed down for a moment, muttering bits and pieces to curb his excitement.
Enchanter.
Although, in a real battle, a mage of the same level may not be able to have an advantage over other classes of the same level, this is after all a profession that does not lie in combat, but in research and preparation.
As a truly cherished resource, the status of a mage is significantly higher than that of other professions except for the Paladin Priest, and in the case of preparation, no profession can easily defeat them, and the most important thing is that except for war mages, other mages are basically rarely directly involved in the battle, and their value as logistics or support is greater than that of a turret, and their safety is very guaranteed.
Even according to the dream of the two little ones, dragon slaying, a mage who wants to slay dragons must have a higher success rate than other professions as long as they are prepared, and if their parents knew about this, they would definitely agree with this.
So, a moment later, Edward returned to his study, glanced at Ivan and Amira, who looked puzzled, and then said to the two children with a smile:
"Little ones - are you going to be magicians?"
Ivan and Amira looked at each other, shook their heads a little bewildered, and then nodded fiercely as if they had just reacted. (To be continued.) )
