Hearing the footsteps entering the door, the two witches looked up.
They were both beauties, and they were both great wizards. Although Zheng Qing was familiar with both of them, the eyes that met them still gave him tremendous mental pressure, making him subconsciously forget to breathe.
Fortunately, the wizard also had a little fox in his arms.
As soon as he entered the door, Poseidon changed from his previous lazy look, jumped out of the wizard's arms eagerly, ran to Su Shijun's side, held her legs and stood up, chirping incessantly, with a big tail.
He was dangling happily behind him, looking like he was taking credit for his hard work.
"Great, great."
Beauty Su put down the teacup in her hand, rubbed the little fox's head, and while praising her, she took out a maroon pill and stuffed it into the little fox's mouth.
After the little fox swallowed the pill, the tips of his comfortable ears stood up, and he reluctantly licked the witch's finger.
"No, you can only take one pill a week at most." Su Shijun stretched out his white index finger, tapped Poseidon's forehead, and pushed the cute little fox away: "...It's medicine and poison, so you have to know how to control it."
Zheng Qing had no choice but to continue pretending.
It's not that he envied the little fox for being able to have close contact with the beautiful Su, but since he entered the door and Senior Sister Kolma saw the little fox in his arms, the subtle look on her face has never faded - not only has she not faded away,
, instead looked the wizard up and down, looking astonished.
"What a coincidence!"
The wizard laughed twice, and finally remembered that he still needed to breathe. He raised his hand and waved to the Great Sage of the North District: "I originally wanted to go to the Sakura Tavern as a guest after school started, but I have been busy..."
"Too busy taking care of the children?" Korma abruptly interrupted the wizard's greetings.
What she answered was a violent cough after choking on a drink of water. The wizard coughed so violently that the small and large foxes who were happily cultivating feelings stopped what they were doing and looked at Zheng Qing.
"What did you just feed Poseidon?" Zheng Qing wiped the water stains on his mouth and changed the topic with a guilty conscience - even without eye contact, he could feel that Kolma was holding the tea cup and staring closely at it.
Hold yourself.
"Baixiang Pills are pills made from the essence of hundreds of flowers. They are used by girls to take care of their health." Su Shijun made sure that the wizard would not be choked to death, then lowered his head to comb the little fox's fur again, and answered smoothly at the same time.
Poseidon lay slumped on her lap, purring comfortably like a cat. His tail swayed from side to side happily, making people want to grab him just by looking at him.
"Does Poseidon need to recuperate at such a young age?" Zheng Qing stared at the little fox's tail and asked a stupid question.
The owner of Qingqiu Mansion rolled his eyes at him and said angrily: "If you don't understand, just leave it alone... Regulating the body is not just about regulating blood energy! Baixiang Pills can improve physical conditions and enhance affinity for magic power. The best effect is when used in childhood!"
Zheng Qing frowned, paused, and couldn't help but whisper: "...isn't it very expensive?"
This time, even Korma, who was drinking tea, couldn't help laughing.
Su Shijun glanced at the wizard and shook his head: "It's not very expensive, but precious. Hundred flowers is an imaginary number, because this pill uses the essence of more than a hundred kinds of flowers, and the time, place, and method of collecting each flower essence are strict.
Restrictions...why are you asking about these? This is something that only girls need to care about!"
Zheng Qing didn't know why the witch's expression suddenly became stern.
He hesitated for a long time before replying in a low voice: "Isn't this... I wonder why you came to see me?"
"Oh, I'm not looking for you, it's Kolma." After hearing the wizard's answer, Su Shijun's expression softened again, and she raised the comb in her hand and pointed at another guest next to her: "...She came to the mansion as a guest today.
When I was discussing the matter of Edge College, I happened to mention the extra article published by the Beta Town Post recently... Tsk, Old Yao’s secrets are really deep! It’s a shame that I thought he was the most reliable before!"
Su Shijun jumped on several topics with one answer, making Zheng Qing feel dizzy.
He first looked at Kolma in the direction pointed by the little comb. The great wizard of the North District raised his tea cup with a smile on his face.
The wizard recalled his first encounter in the Sakura Tavern, shuddered, and pretended not to see the greeting from his senior sister.
"What is Fringe Academy?" He skipped two unanswerable topics and finally chose a term that didn't sound like it had anything to do with him.
This time, Su Shijun finally stopped speaking and used his eyes to signal the person involved to answer.
"It is a newly established college, full-time undergraduate, four-year program, similar to the colleges of the First University." Kolma replied briskly: "I plan to teach the wizards of the North District to learn magic in this college.
, the application has been submitted, and the name is 'Edge'... How about it, it's great!"
"Edge." Zheng Qing chewed on this slightly special word.
"Well, you can understand it this way." The Great Sage of the North District stood up slightly, stretched out his hand and drew a stroke in the air, including the North District of Beta Town and the Silent Forest: "This college was established in the First University
On the edge of the Silent Forest, the wizards of the North District have always been marginalized in the wizarding world - of course, I don't think this is a shame for the North District, on the contrary, I think it is a precious memory that the North District strives for and deserves to be passed down."
This sounds pretty nice, not bad.
"But what does this matter have to do with me?" The wizard scratched his head - now that the topic has been discussed, the initial embarrassment is naturally gone - so he continued naturally: "I don't want to transfer to the academy either.
Na..."
"It really has nothing to do with you." Kolma scratched his chin thoughtfully: "But your suggestion is worth considering. Well, when building the college, we should indeed recruit some talented students to slightly strengthen the college's foundation...
"
As she spoke, she took out a small notebook and a silver-white quill from somewhere, and scribbled down the thoughts that had just come to her.
Zheng Qing wanted to stop it, but he was worried that interrupting a great wizard's inspiration would cause bad backlash.
In the end, she could only cough twice, trying to remind the witch to get back to her business: "So... you haven't said why you came to me."
"Oh." Korma continued to record his inspiration and explained simply without raising his head: "Originally, I asked Senior Sister Su for help. I walked around the Yuexia Council or the school to see if I could speed up the advancement of the Edge Academy.
The thing... I heard that you have a good relationship with the school's senior management, so I asked you to ask if there is any 'shortcut'."
As she said that, she had finished recording her inspiration. She raised her head and looked at Zheng Qing calmly. The quill in her hand rested on a blank page, as if she was recording the boy's words at any time.
Zheng Qing looked confused and pointed at his nose: "Me?"
The voice is full of self-knowledge.
