From this brief exchange, Frya could also see that this Liza tutor, her own character belonged to the kind of gentle type, and seemed to be the kind that was very good at talking.
However, even if this is the case, she also does not have any mind to want to attach to it, although Frya and Liza signed a mentor contract, but in essence it is just a simple teacher-student relationship, in addition to her where she can get cheaper knowledge and materials, and other people do not have too much to do with each other.
There were no shortcuts that could be utilised on the path of a sorcerer, one could only progress by their own incessant hard work and accumulation, this was what Hegel had told her in the carriage when she left.
While walking along the roadside route marked with the dormitory area, she took out the handbook she received from Lisa and looked at it carefully.
On it were densely written various subjects and the time of the classes, besides the basic subjects there were also a large number of high level subjects, although both of them required a fee, but compared to the gold coins required for the basic subjects, the high level subjects that required a fee required another kind of thing called 'magic stone' to pay for them.
''Magic stones?'' Freya frowned slightly, as if this thing called magic stone was something similar to money used by wizards, but she knew nothing about it.
Moving on, at the end of the manual, there was an exchange rate between magic crystals and gold coins, but the rate was a staggering one to ten thousand!
That is to say, 10,000 gold coins can only replace one magic stone, which made Freya's forehead slightly sweaty.
Because she saw that the lowest charge discipline required a magic stone.
"All the gold coins on my body only add up to just over three thousand, fortunately I have the advantage of being able to study for free for three years, otherwise... I just don't know if there are any ways to earn magic stones here, but I've only just entered the academy now, so there's plenty of time to think about it, and what I need right now is to learn from the most basic subjects first. "
After thinking a little, she immediately determined her current purpose.
After walking for about ten minutes. Following the road sign and school sign finally found the room that belonged to her.
Compared to those frighteningly expensive tuition fees, the apprentice rooms arranged by the academy were only of average specifications.
After briefly scanning the room, she put her travelling items on the table. Firstly, she opened the parcel she received and inspected the issued items.
Neatly folded grey robes, an ordinary looking black iron ring, a small red plaque, and a finger-sized bottle of clear glass test tube containing a light blue liquid.
Freya took that test tube out of the package. Gently shook it. The light blue liquid inside that instantly turned pink, and then turned blue again after another shake.
"Rui Brain Potion." Freya gently read out the description of the potion at the bottom of the test tube "Main effect is to stabilise mental power, side effect: mental exuberance will last for a period of time after use."
With just a glance. Freya knew that this tube of potion was probably for use after promotion, the current her was still only a first class apprentice, but the promotion in the early stage was very rapid, and she had already been able to slowly figure out the fifteenth rune through the time on the ship, it was just that it wasn't very stable yet.
Even so, however, the ability particles in the air were already slowly improving her physique under her control.
It was thought that it would take a while longer to break through to a second-class apprentice. This tube of potion would be of use.
Carefully putting the potion back, she took out the black iron ring used for summoning from it.
The all-black ring did not have a little pattern style, but Frya felt a little energy particles from this ring, gently touched the surface, there is some roughness, to Frya's eyes to see this ring has a very heavy assembly line workmanship traces.
After playing with it for a while. Wear directly on their index finger.
Finally. Only then did she take out Hegel's box and open it.
Inside was a plain white mask the size of a human face.
Freya carefully took it out of the box. The weight of the mask was very light not knowing what material it was made of, gently caressing that mask, the soft touch actually had a bit of warmth in it, as if it was real skin.
This made Freya a little curious, as she had no other reaction other than the strangeness shown in these touches, not even the faint energy particles could be felt.
This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.
"However, since Hegel said that this thing can deal with a full-fledged wizard, I guess it's not as ordinary as it seems." Freya guessed and put the mask back into the box again.
Other than the things that Hegel had given her that she wasn't sure what they did, Freya had looked at all of them and understood what they were used for.
Once she had put everything back in its place, Freya took off her civilian clothes and changed into her grey apprentice robes.
She decided to walk around a bit first to get a feel for the area she would be visiting often in the future.
After all, it was the place where she was going to be living and studying for a long time.
Locking the door, Freya followed the street signs and wandered aimlessly in this still somewhat unfamiliar place.
The architectural style of the Elgrim Academy was based on black with a feeling of gothic architecture from the previous world.
The huge buildings were all towering and slim, most of them had spires, giving people a faint sense of oppression.
The sky was foggy, and even at noon, the sun hanging in the sky only showed a small white circle of light.
Walking on the road paved with black stone slabs, she could see some young people wearing the same clothes as her everywhere, only compared to Freya's demeanour, most of them were in a hurry, although they were walking, their speed was similar to trotting, and each of them would be holding one or two books more or less.
In response, Freya just raised an eyebrow, having a slight understanding of the intense learning atmosphere of the academy.
Soon, she found the teaching area, the canteen area, the lab area, the garden, the library, the practice room, the trading area, and other areas under the direction of the road signs.
An hour later, Freya, who had understood the general area, returned to her room again.
The entire Elgrim Academy was large and large, and even after turning around for an hour, she had only seen less than half of the academy.
However, in addition to knowing the usual areas, she had actually found places in the academy where she could send letters, but of course, it was impossible to send them to the gargoyle harbour.
What Freya had in mind was Francis, who she had met on the ship.
With more than ten days of contact, her impression of Francis was quite good, the type that could be worth deep friendship, and the other party was also considered a member of a wizard family, knowing and understanding far more than she had access to, and vaguely had the intention of wooing her while on the ship.
The distance between the two was not very far, and it was entirely possible to achieve communication through letters.
"It never hurts to have more contact." Freya murmured as she took out a paper and pen.
In the next few days, Freya then did the same as the other newcomers, going to the teaching area every day to learn the free basics, and then going to the library to find the information books she needed.
Because of the Positive Energy Principle discipline she had previously chosen from Mentor Liza, most of the books she was looking for were similar or the same.
For example, the use and storage of plant-based energy particles, the analysis of spell principle model construction, linguistics, the principle of spiritual power development, and so on.
However, Freya found out through these few days of study that the knowledge learnt with gold coins and the content learnt with magic stones were not in the same class at all, in her words, although the basic subjects were also useful to her, the knowledge involving the real principles still required those subjects that were charged.
Like a pyramid, the accumulation of basic knowledge was just a better way to pave the way for higher level stuff.
The release of spells was complex, under the premise of mainly using mental power to outline the spell model, it also required a deep analysis of the principles of the spell, including the amount of energy particles channelled by the spell model, the loss of mental power, as well as the estimation of the target's power after the release of the power affected by what and so on, if all of these are mastered, then only can be said to be a proper mastery of the spell.
The large amount of knowledge that Freya had learnt was the principle of spell formation.
This involves a very, very wide range of things, and even some special spells include some metaphysical, other sub-dimensional things.
And most of this knowledge in addition to a small portion is subject to a fee.
So, with the passage of time, the basic knowledge has gradually and slowly to Freya can not satisfy.
