"Ugh? Are you going to school with us too, brother?" Surprise was written all over Lucy's childish face.
"What's the matter? Dear sister, isn't it fun?"
"Yes it is." Lucy sighed, she had thought that when she went to school she would be able to do whatever she wanted and live a life without shame with Xina.
Xena did look a little happier, obviously she wanted to go to school, but she didn't really want to leave Leon either.
Leon glanced at Enishi, who confidently patted her chest and assured, "Don't worry, Mr. Leon, with my position in the Elmira Magic Academy, not to mention you, even a pig will be able to have the principal open the back door for it to successfully graduate."
Leon: ...
"By the way Enishi, since you're so miserable out there, why don't you go back to the academy?" Leon asked seemingly in response.
It was only then that Ainish remembered something and instantly blushed, "Eh... there's a rather annoying guy in the academy, it's so troublesome... Right! Mr. Leon, after arriving at the academy, please make sure you do me a small favor!"
"If I can do it." Leon didn't refuse.
Elmira Magic Academy was the most famous magic academy in the Ailan Empire, it could be called a household name, and the principal, Horn Jones, was the current president of the Mage Association, possessing a terrifying strength of the eighth rank.
Elmira Magic Academy does not participate in any national politics, its only purpose of existence is to study magic, regardless of race, regardless of poverty.
Every year, there were countless students who wanted to enroll in the Elmira Magic Academy, and as a result, the entrance threshold of the academy became higher and higher. Nowadays, there were basically only two types of students in the academy, one type was nobles with a prominent status, and the other type was geniuses with outstanding qualifications.
There was also no shortage of people who occupied both identities at the same time.
As the son of the city lord, it was quite difficult for Leon to enroll in the school if he didn't have an acquaintance to introduce him.
After that, Leon made another trip to Black Night Mumble.
Hurlan hadn't returned yet, and Bone Rats said that he was going to participate in a big once-in-a-decade event of a mage association.
"Oh? You're enrolling in Elmira Magic Academy?" Bone Rat Carter was slightly surprised, and then relieved, "That's right, after all, that little Enishi girl has been brought home by you."
"She and I are just normal friends." Leon explained.
"Yes, I know, that girl Ainish is a good liar, isn't she?" Instead of using that Hurran golem, the bone rat lounged lazily on the counter in its original form, an unknown spellbook chiseled into an elaborate couch. "Maybe you're just having an innocent sexual relationship."
It was hard for Leon to imagine that this frivolous and criminal little mouse in front of him was actually an eighth-ranked powerhouse once upon a time.
Suddenly, the bone rat took out a pen and paper from the counter and placed it in front of Leon, "Kid, I'm not in a position to do so right now, so help me write a letter, and give it to Horn for me if you see him."
Leon nodded.
Leon then somewhat regretted taking the job.
"Let me think about it ... At the beginning you write, Horn Jones you heavenly beast, the bastard who gave birth to a son without an asshole ..."
The entire letter was filled with unrelenting abuse of Horn, greeting the women of his entire family tree in passing, and it was quite painful for Leon to write the letter.
Still, on the last page of the letter, the bone rat mentioned, "Leon the boy is a disciple of Hurlan, take care of him."
Leon was in a bit of a quandary, he was afraid that when Principal Horn-Jones saw the letter, would he just burn it.
After Leon stopped writing, Carter the Bone Rat's paw dipped into the ink and pressed hard at the end of the letterhead, the paper scratching a bit.
"Well ... even at the Elmira Magic Academy, there aren't many necromancers, but the library has quite a few quite useful books that you can take the time to read."
"Thank you, Mr. Carter."
Bone Rat Carter froze slightly, then laughed softly, "I wonder how long it's been since anyone has properly addressed me by name ..."
...
"Wow! That's huge!" Lucy looked up into the air in shock, and Leon had shock in his eyes as well.
There was this huge island floating in the air, blocking out the sun and casting a huge shadow.
Elmira Magic Academy was a floating island, and from below, the oppressive feeling of covering the sun all day could make everyone hold their breath.
"Let's go." Enishi seemed to have seen it all, but some pride still showed in her eyes.
There were countless defense formations around the floating island, wanting to fly in directly was impossible, the only way to enter was through a specialized spatial teleportation array.
And the teleportation arrays in each place were managed by the students or teachers of the Elmira Magic Academy. It was an easy job that could also accumulate a lot of credit GPAs, and the students all scrambled to do it.
"That one is ... Ainish-senpai!" A large dwarf man with a beard saw Ainish's figure and waved his hand enthusiastically in greeting.
"Pfft--" Lucy and Xina couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Sister Ainihi, that uncle called you school sister ugh."
Enihi was a bit helpless, "The academy's rules are like this."
Ai Ni Xi's position in Leon's home was more like a tutor, and now that they had arrived at the academy, Lucy and the girls would naturally not continue to call Ai Ni Xi their teacher.
"Uncle Sunny, please open the teleportation array for me."
"Okay Ai Ni Xi school sister." Dwarf uncle Sanny jumped down from the rattan chair.
This was the first time Leon had seen a dwarf, Uncle Sonny was a head shorter than even Lucy, and was estimated to be only a meter tall. Uncle Sonny wore a bullhorn steel helmet on his head, and his body was covered with gnarled muscles, just ... very much in line with Leon s stereotypical impression of dwarves.
Uncle Sonny was simply the standard Dwarf template.
"Are these people friends of Ainish-senpai?" Uncle Sanny asked curiously as he looked at Leon and the others.
Ainihi returned, "Yes, I will introduce them to the principal to enroll them in the Elmira Magic Academy."
Lucy spoke up curiously and asked, "Can dwarves learn magic too?"
Leon pinched Lucy's cheeks hard and apologized repeatedly to Uncle Sunny.
"Oh it's okay." Uncle Sanny waved his hand, his face was a bit disheveled, "I am an alternative among dwarves, I don't have the talent for forging, but my magic talent is slightly better ... However, dwarven magic talent is inherently poor, and I'm just at the level of an ordinary person."
"It's okay, Uncle Sunny!" Lucy encouraged, "You're special and already better than many dwarves!"
Sonny smiled amiably, and with a flash of silver light, the group in the teleportation array disappeared.
