55. Spell Class
The first class of the new term was a class meeting. After it ended, there was a long break. Bai Wei used this opportunity to have some students bring over the textbooks to prepare for the upcoming classes.
Bai Wei called Meng Lian to the office and gave her five student IDs to distribute to the newly successful students.
However, at that moment, Bai Wei took out another form and handed it to Meng Lian.
It was Meng Lian's personal information form.
Meng Lian picked it up and glanced at it, feeling puzzled.
What did this mean?
The information on here was all prepared by the Alliance. Generally speaking, there shouldn't be any problems.
"You made a mistake here last time. For the Andra Galaxy, you wrote 'Andra' instead of 'Andra.' Fix it."
Bai Wei pointed to the address column. Meng Lian looked at it. It seemed like one character was written incorrectly.
Meng Lian remembered it was indeed Andra. But with Bai Wei saying this, Meng Lian also thought she might have accidentally written the wrong character.
"I understand. Sorry for the trouble, Teacher."
"It's fine."
Meng Lian corrected the information and handed it to Bai Wei. Bai Wei accepted it and simply nodded.
"What's wrong? Is she on the list?"
Just then, a teacher nearby saw this scene and leaned over curiously.
"No, she's not on either list. She just accidentally wrote the address wrong. She probably just mastered the witch language and isn't familiar with it yet."
Bai Wei pointed to the character that Meng Lian had crossed out. The other teacher looked at it and nodded with understanding.
"That really is careless. But sometimes I get those two characters mixed up too. Sigh, I'm so envious that your class doesn't have any. My class has three whole ones, and I have to pretend I don't know anything. It's really exhausting."
"Alright, the Dean already said not to alert them. Be careful, otherwise if you spook them, with the Dean's temper, you know what will happen."
At the mention of Anmir, the teacher shuddered, then returned to her own seat.
Bai Wei didn't speak further either. She sat at her desk, staring at that character, lost in thought.
Are you, or are you not?
Why isn't your name on the list?
……
So the wolf-eared girl was called Luoluo.
Meng Lian distributed the student IDs. The last one happened to be for the wolf-eared girl.
"Here, this is yours."
Luoluo took it and said thanks. But then she grabbed Meng Lian, who was about to leave, her eyes darting around nervously.
"Um, Class Monitor, I want to apologize to you. I said some bad things a few days ago. Please don't take it to heart."
Hearing this, Meng Lian immediately thought of the battle between Luoluo and Shen Ning a few days ago that had accidentally affected her. She smiled.
"It's fine. I know you didn't mean it."
People said you don't hit someone who is smiling. Besides, the other party's attitude in apologizing was so sincere. Meng Lian didn't hold a grudge.
Returning to her seat, Shen Ning leaned over from the side.
"What did that dog say to you?"
"She just wanted to apologize for what happened before."
"Hah? Apologize?"
Shen Ning was stunned. That blockhead knew how to apologize?
Then why didn't she apologize to her?
Thinking of this, Shen Ning gritted her teeth. She felt the other party was targeting her.
"Tch, a weasel paying respects to a chicken, definitely up to no good. Class Monitor, you should be on guard against her. She definitely doesn't have good intentions."
"Haha, isn't that a bit too much?"
Meng Lian laughed awkwardly. She could feel Luoluo's sincerity. Was Shen Ning being a bit too reactive?
"Too much? Class Monitor, you're just too simple, too nice. Think about it. She didn't succeed for days, and then on the very last day she succeeded. She definitely made some dirty deals with certain people to get the credits to buy potions. Hmph, she called me shameless, but I think she's the hypocritical one. Saying one thing to your face and another behind your back."
Shen Ning had a mysterious look on her face as she spoke, making Meng Lian start thinking too.
There really was something fishy going on.
After all, those loan sharks were all incredibly shrewd. For Luoluo to get credits, she must have paid a huge price.
"So she definitely has issues. Class Monitor, after school this afternoon, do you want to secretly follow her and see where she goes?"
Shen Ning moved closer to Meng Lian. Meng Lian could smell the lime scent on her. Hearing this, Meng Lian hesitated. "That doesn't seem right... After all, it's her own choice. Wouldn't we be disrespecting her a bit?"
"Just to take a look..."
Before Shen Ning could finish, the class bell rang, and both of them sensibly shut their mouths.
"I'll pass. I have something to do tonight. But if you run into any trouble, you can call me. I'll come whenever you need."
In the end, Meng Lian had to find an excuse to brush it off.
"Alright..."
Shen Ning couldn't help but feel disappointed. Just then, a mature woman with a braided ponytail and black-rimmed glasses, looking very serious, walked into the classroom.
"I am Oula Rio, your Spell Class teacher."
Oula seemed to be a serious and rigorous teacher. Seeing that the classroom was quiet, a trace of satisfaction flashed through her eyes behind her lenses.
"Good discipline. Who is the Class Monitor?"
Hearing this, Meng Lian quickly stood up.
"It's me, Teacher."
"Mm, the Class Monitor is good too. Has the subject representative been chosen?"
"Yes, Teacher. I am the Spell Class representative."
At this moment, a girl with flaxen hair in the corner also raised her hand and stood up.
"Both good. Then let's begin the class. Subject representative, pay attention. Near the end of class, I will assign homework for a one-week period. Next Monday, you need to collect the homework and hand it to me. Understood?"
"Understood!"
The girl hurriedly agreed. Seeing this, Oula let both of them sit down.
Spell Class was the most basic course for witches. When first learning magic, witches needed to use obscure spells composed of the witch language, or incantations, to drive the magic power within their bodies to construct magical frameworks.
Of course, spells were only used by ordinary witches. Once one entered the Extraordinary realm, magic power could be applied freely. Casting spells would be as natural as moving one's own arm, without any need for incantations.
Oula introduced the divisions of witch realms: Ordinary Witch, Extraordinary Witch, Great Witch, Sequence Witch.
Meng Lian had already learned all this from Xian Yun, so she just treated it as a review.
After this introduction, Oula had everyone take out their Spell Class textbooks.
"Our first lesson will cover Fireball and Waterball."
Wow, learning two spells right off the bat.
Seeing Fireball, Meng Lian thought of the person on the forum whose Fireball could grow to the size of a star. She couldn't help but speculate.
It seemed that even these most basic spells, when taken to their limits, would have world-destroying power.
Fireball and Waterball were just two spells, very simple. But for some reason, even when reciting the spell completely, there was no effect. Forget a fireball, there wasn't even a spark.
"Who told you that just reciting the spell would produce a fireball? Magic power, magic power! How many times have I told you? When reciting the spell, you must mobilize the magic power within your body. Otherwise, why do we make you become witches? Magic power is crucial. The spell is just an auxiliary means!"
Seeing this, Oula spoke with a look of disappointment, as if expecting better from them.
Magic power?
Hearing this, Meng Lian's heart stirred slightly. She closed her eyes and silently recited the spell. Yesterday, when Yaoyao had absorbed the magic power from her body, she had felt the flow of magic power. Now, recalling that scene, she soon felt the magic power within her gathering toward her palm. The spell on her lips was like a brush, using magic power as ink, painting a flame pattern on her palm. At this moment, Meng Lian also sensed the fire elemental energy between heaven and earth.
"Ignite!"
The last word of the spell fell. Meng Lian suddenly opened her eyes. She felt the temperature in her palm and felt a surge of joy.
Success!
But when she saw the white fireball in her palm, she was dumbfounded.
Eh? Why is it white?
This, this isn't right?
