Chapter 45 The Professors of St. Byrons

 To use [Silver Moon Slash], you don’t need any casting materials. You only need to use your limbs to pull out light traces in the air. The silver light traces can be slashed forward to create an attack form.

Before midnight, Shade tried many times in the room with the curtains drawn, making streaks of light appear, and then letting the streaks of light slash forward. He was very excited, even though he had tried to move objects through the air before,

Blood Echo and Light Technique, but [Silver Moon Slash] fit his imagination of "power" and "mystery".

It's a pity that Shade is just a beginner and doesn't have a deep understanding of the [Silver Moon] elemental runes, and his own spirit is very small, so those light marks can't even leave obvious traces on the wall.

But if you just want to hurt the fragile human body, it is enough to do it at close range.

Although the power of this magical technique was mediocre for the time being, the trace of light left in the sky was extremely beautiful, even more elegant and noble than the form recorded in the book, which attracted the curious orange cat Mia.

Of course, the above four kinds of thaumaturgy from the courses are only provided by the academy for free. If Shade wants to get more thaumaturgy from the academy, he can check it in the library and pay to get the knowledge of those thaumaturgy.

Each professor also has a different collection of thaumaturgy and incantation. Getting high marks in their courses is also a way to obtain free thaumaturgy and incantation.

Regarding the college's thaumaturgy and conjuration, Dr. Schneider believed that the library's price was unreasonable and that it was the college's "exploitation" of correspondence students.

Instead of buying it at the academy, Shade might as well buy it from the same group or local ring magicians. The academy only serves as a channel for obtaining rare magic and spells.

But no matter what, outsiders have completely stepped into the mysterious and extraordinary door of the weird steam age.

The foreigner summed up his current situation and found that what he lacked most was neither time nor experience, but gold pounds. So he became more determined to run this detective agency. This is the best thing he can currently get.

ways to make money.

"Rely on commissions to earn gold pounds, and then obtain knowledge from St. Byrons. Obtain the four-element runes and continue to advance. Even if you can't go back, you still have to witness this mysterious and magnificent world."

Because he has his own house, Shade is no longer as depressed as he was in the past few days.

As for copying books from the past world, or using the knowledge of the past world to make profits in the steam age, detailed plans can only be made after he has established a foothold here and gained more strength.

The whole day was spent playing with cats and reading books. Shade, who had mastered his first thaumaturgy, was still very happy even though he had no income today.

In this way, the night came. Looking at the clock showing that it was already eleven o'clock, Shade first locked the nocturnal orange cat Mia in the bedroom, and then moved the coffee table and sofa to make room.

Place the four chairs next to the dining table into the living room, use a compass to strictly correct the direction, and finally fill a basin of water and place it in the center of the four chairs.

He put on the only formal suit in the closet, closed the curtains, and turned the gas lamp in the living room to a slightly illuminated warm yellow state.

Then he sat on the chair due north, with a match in one hand and a scroll with a list of elective courses in the other. He stared at the clock as it finally turned to a position close to twelve o'clock, and quickly struck the match on the armrest of the chair.

Because of too much force, the match broke in the middle. Shade was slightly startled, and immediately took out a matchbox from his knee.

The matches of this era were not safety matches, and there was no rough area on the side of the matchbox for sliding. It was a common practice to pull out the match and scratch it on the ground, shoe soles, or walls.

The second match was finally lit successfully. Shade looked up at the clock and immediately ignited the scroll after hearing the first bell. The parchment scroll was almost alight, and when he saw that the flame had appeared, he immediately threw the scroll in front of him.

of water.

Although he had been prepared for a long time, Shade was still a little surprised when he saw the scroll that had entered the water turned into dots of blue light scattered in the basin:

"What's this?"

As he was thinking, the woman's voice in his head unexpectedly spoke:

[It’s not thaumaturgy or incantation, it’s an older occult power, it’s some kind of ritual.]

"ceremony?"

Without waiting for further explanation, I saw that the entire basin of water began to radiate light. The wind was blowing in the room with the windows closed at this moment. In the wind, three beams of light were projected from the basin to the east, west and south respectively.

As a result, three blue transparent human bodies gradually became clear from blur, and appeared on the chair prepared by Shade. Shade even saw characters swimming in their transparent bodies, but even if he only deciphered one of them

It made him feel pain in his head, so he learned the lesson of [Box of Darkness] and did not maintain that strong curiosity.

The appearance of the three people suddenly made the room feel cold.

Sitting across from Shade in the south is an old man wearing round glasses. He is wearing a formal black suit and is even taller than Shade. A pocket watch chain protrudes from his chest pocket and is tied to his chest.

On the buttons:

"Professor Hames Sanchez, Vice President of St. Byrons Comprehensive College, Director of Student Affairs, and School of Library Management."

Professor Sangqi introduced himself in very standard Delarian language and nodded slightly to Shade.

This name is the name given in the message, and it is this person who made the appointment with Shade through this method.

Sitting on the chair in the east is a middle-aged man who looks to be in his forties, thin but with a resolute expression. He wears the same black formal suit with a white shirt, and the button of the cuff is the school badge of Byrons Comprehensive College.

, books locked by chains.

His ears seem to be a little pointed, different from normal people:

"Associate Dean of History, Professor Hessenger Garcia."

His Delarian is obviously not as good as Professor Sanchez's standard. In today's world, southern Carsonic and northern Delarian are widely spoken. Perhaps Professor Garcia was originally from the south.

The last person sitting on the Western chair is a beautiful lady with curly hair in her thirties. She wears a monocle in her right eye, wears a common blue female clerk's uniform, and holds a writing pad and pen in her hand.

He nodded to Shade in a friendly manner, but spoke less solemnly than the two professors:

"I am Lux Jones from the college secretariat. According to regulations, when college professors communicate with correspondence magicians in non-teaching situations, a secretary from the secretariat must record the conversation and archive it. This is not only to protect you, but also to protect Saint Byron.

Si’s secret.”

"I understand, Professor Sanchez, Professor Garcia, Miss Jones, good evening... Do you need hot tea? The black tea I have here is very good."

After being slightly surprised, Shade said politely to the three transparent figures. He was wondering if this ritual was similar to the principle of a projector. But the cold atmosphere at this moment showed that maybe the original function of the ritual was not remote.

Hold a meeting.
