The dense population inevitably creates a large supply and demand relationship. In addition, most of the students are children of noble families who are not short of pocket money. This has attracted many chambers of commerce to take root here, forming a well-known commercial street.

The flow of commerce created more jobs, and the snowball effect continued as Silver City expanded time and again, eventually reaching its current size.

In the heart of Silver City stands the Royal Magic University, a magnificent temple of wisdom and magic.

The university's east gate, which connects to the main entrance of the commercial street, is a magnificent arched building.

On the pillars on both sides, the greatest magicians and legendary heroes of the continent over the past thousand years are carved. Every line and mark contains magic, and the figures are lifelike and vivid, as if they will walk down from the stone wall at any moment.

Above the lintel is the official name of the Royal Magic University, which also possesses magical power, flowing with a fiery luster in the sunlight and radiating a soft silver glow in the moonlight.

Directly above, three huge flags fluttered in the wind.

At the very center, and at the highest point, stands the flag of the Kingdom of Gold—the Golden Flame Banner.

The background is deep red, with a golden flame pattern in the center, symbolizing the kingdom's vigorous vitality like a blazing fire and its supreme authority that burns everything in its path.

On the left is the royal flag—the Golden Lion Flag.

Against a deep sapphire blue background, a majestic golden lion occupies the center, poised to pounce, its claws outstretched and mouth slightly open, symbolizing the royal family's bravery, strength, and protection.

The flag of the Royal Magic University is on the right – the Star and Crescent Flag.

The background color is a pale blue, symbolizing wisdom, with a bright, silvery-white full moon at the center. Within the moon, a six-pointed star shines brilliantly. The overlapping of the star and the full moon symbolizes wisdom and knowledge, as well as the eternal pursuit of great truth.

It's not just the school flag, but also the school badge. Every student's uniform has this badge, which is very useful when they're out and about.

"This must be your first time at the school. Since we're going the same way, let's go to the central area together..."

Smith led Gawain through the east gate. Before entering, security personnel checked their work permits and student IDs. The main focus was on Gawain; the investigation team was from the school's security department, so it was just a formality.

Throughout the bumpy journey, Gao Wen acted like a hardworking college student, contributing a lot of effort in carrying things. Smith had a good impression of him, handing him a map as he entered and giving him a brief introduction to the school.

"The school is divided into five main areas: east, south, west, north, and central. The central area is the faculty and staff area, which includes a large auditorium, a large gymnasium, a security office, a school history archives museum, and a school history hall of fame memorial hall..."

"Don't go to the administrative office building unless you have to. That's the magic tower in the central district. If you wander around there without a legitimate reason, you'll be investigated and might even get a major demerit."

"The four zones—east, south, west, and north—are student areas, each with public teaching buildings, a school hospital, a canteen, student dormitories, a library, a gymnasium, a sports field, a small auditorium, and a garden..."

"Don't go to the administrative office building of the district unless there's nothing wrong. It's the district's magic tower; if you get caught, you'll still get a major demerit."

"Besides that, students from different campuses are not allowed to visit each other's rooms at will. If you have something to discuss, you should meet in the central area. If you want to go on a date, go to the commercial street. There are plenty of suites for you young people to use..."

"The school has 25 faculties, with significant differences in the number of departments and the number of students in each faculty. Some management disciplines only admit aristocrats..."

"You are a freshman in the History Department, belonging to the School of Philosophy, in the South Campus. After you finish your enrollment procedures, take your freshman certificate to the administrative office building in the South Campus, where you will be assigned a dormitory."

Upon arriving at the Central District Security Office, the investigation team bid farewell to Gao Wen, all of whom admired the hardworking and down-to-earth college student.

They are exceptionally diligent, unlike others who can always find excuses not to work.

Smith pointed Gawain in the right direction: "Take the certificate I gave you, go straight, turn left, and keep going. See that black tower over there? That's the Central District Administrative Building. It's been a month since school started, so I don't know if anyone is still in charge of new student enrollment. Go and ask them. I still need to submit a report, so I can't keep you company."

Gawain saw the dark, pointed tower through the gaps in the trees; it had a distinctly demonic style, making it hard to miss.

After walking and stopping frequently, Gawain arrived at the Demon King's hometown. It was dark and tall, and the building materials were indiscernible, but it felt particularly hard.

The Central Magic Tower is crucial to the entire school's defense mechanism, and soon security personnel approached Gawain to inquire why he was wandering around the area.

If you're acting suspiciously and peeking around without giving a legitimate reason, we'll arrest you and lock you in a dark room today.

Gao Wen took out his student ID, explained that he was there to complete the enrollment procedures, and provided proof.

Commissioner Smith held a prominent position in the security department, and the certificates he issued were highly effective. The stern-faced staff member immediately transformed into a warm-hearted passerby, pointing Gao Wen in the right direction: "We no longer process new student admissions, but your situation is special. Go to the very end of the building, to the innermost office. If no one is there, just wait. It's lunchtime now, so someone should open the door in half an hour at the latest."

"oh oh."

At this moment, Gao Wen rediscovered the feeling of freshman registration. Back then, he followed the crowd and went wherever there were many people, unlike now when he was asking around and seemed rather clueless.

As he expected, the door to the freshmen office on the first floor was locked, and it would not be opened until the students were in office.

Half an hour was nothing; Gao Wen could wait. He looked up at the portraits hanging on both sides of the corridor.

The first thing I noticed was the photo of Principal Juntu hanging on the wall.

A vice principal is also a principal!

Just then, soft footsteps approached. Gao Wen thought it was an office worker, but when he turned around, he saw a girl in a school uniform.

She wasn't tall, barely reaching Gao Wen's shoulder. Her slender calves were visible beneath the hem of her school uniform skirt, which went past her knees. The school uniform top was well-tailored, showcasing her immense wealth; she already owned a private airport at such a young age.

She was unremarkable, not at all Gao Wen's type, but it must be said that this senior had a quiet and gentle demeanor, and a fair and delicate face. Her eyebrows were long and thin like willow leaves, her nose was small and straight, and her lips were a light cherry pink, like a carefully sculpted porcelain doll.

As Gao Wen looked at the other person, the other person was also looking at Gao Wen.

After a brief eye contact, Gao Wen broke the awkward silence with a憨厚 smile, revealing his pearly white teeth: "Senior, you're here in the freshman office too?"

"I'm not a senior, I'm a freshman." The girl's voice was very pleasant, soft and sweet, but she was also very wary, always keeping a certain distance.

Although Gawain is handsome, his fake smile is awkward, much like a gentleman.

A gentleman is a patient wolf!

"What a coincidence, me too."

Having successfully initiated the conversation, Gao Wen, having nothing better to do, casually asked, "My name is Gao Wen, a freshman in the History Department of the Philosophy School. And you are, classmate?"

Anya, Institute of Science and Technology.

"..."

What college? Medical school, right?

Look at my ears, I actually heard it as the Institute of Science and Technology.

It's alright, I'm only a little deaf, not completely deaf, otherwise I'd be in the civil engineering department.

"Mechanical Engineering Department."

"???"

What the heck? Is he really deaf, or has the world changed?

Oh, the world has really changed.

"Hey classmate, is something wrong?" Anya frowned.

"It's nothing, just a bit unexpected. I suddenly don't understand this world anymore."

Gao Wen sighed, not mentioning the tragedy of the mechanical dog in the other world, and casually explained: "Maybe it's because it's away from home and everything is unfamiliar, so it's a little homesick."

What does this guy mean?

Gao Wen's rambling words made Anya frown. She glanced at the locked freshman office, politely said goodbye, and left.

"That's strange. I didn't intend to flirt with her, and with my face, there's no reason for her to be so wary..."

Gawain was a bit confused. Although he didn't mean to flirt with her and was just killing time, Anya's defensive behavior still frustrated him. He felt that his A+ level charm was completely insufficient at the magic university.

╭ (╯ ^ ╰) ╮

"Hmph, it's her loss to miss out. I was actually planning to treat her to dinner."

Chapter 24 My Son Has the Bearing of an Emperor

Royal Magic University.

South Campus, Student Dormitory Area, Male Dormitory Area.

The gap between the rich and the poor exists everywhere, and magic universities are no exception. In fact, it is precisely because they are magic universities that the gap between the rich and the poor is even more pronounced.

In addition to gender separation, the dormitory area is also divided into economy class and business class. Considering that the students are all geniuses, the school does not take advantage of the poor and does not directly assign dormitories based on their background. There are two different accommodation fees, and whether to live in a villa or an apartment depends entirely on one's own financial situation.

Normally, commoners have their own dormitories, while nobles have their own exclusive villas, and they keep to themselves.

There are also exceptions. Magicians have a great need for their private space. Many geniuses from common backgrounds who have excellent grades will move out of the dormitory as soon as they receive a scholarship and reward themselves with a small villa.

Nobility is not always wealthy. In the Kingdom of Jinyao, the inheritance of titles is divided into two types: hereditary succession without change and hereditary succession with a downward trend.

As long as the former doesn't act recklessly, they can easily move in and out of high society and enjoy a luxurious life by doing business under the tax-free policy; the latter's wealth rarely lasts more than three generations, and if they get stuck with a spendthrift son, their quality of life will plummet, and they can only live in the dream of their ancestors' past wealth.

Hereditary titles are rare, and over 80% of the noble children in the Golden Kingdom are very strapped for cash. Based on their own circumstances, they rationally apply to the school for loans and move into small villas.

They couldn't let their ancestors' glory go to waste, and reason told them they should take out a loan.

To put it another way, the school, under the guise of equality for all... pshaw, the banner of equality for all, fairness, fairness, and still the damn fairness, made all the money!

It's a villa in the southeast corner of the boys' dormitory area, near the garden, just a few steps from the school's south gate, but extremely far from the teaching buildings.

In the spacious living room, two young men in their early twenties sat on the sofa chatting.

The young man on the left is handsome, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and his blond hair is neatly combed, every strand of which speaks of his meticulousness and self-discipline.

He sat upright, his clothes impeccably tailored, and a polite smile played on his lips. Because it was an official smile, primarily a polite formality, the smile never reached his eyes; his gaze behind his glasses was calm and distant, exuding a noble and elegant ascetic air.

Hugh Ignis.

Ignis is the royal surname of the Kingdom of Venus, meaning fire. Hugh is the current third prince and third in line to the throne.

The young man on the right had a striking head of blue hair and a flamboyant spiky hairstyle. He paid attention to his clothes but not his manners, and to his appearance but not his manners. He was not bad-looking, but his temperament was frivolous, and he kept glancing at the door like someone with ADHD.

Hill Griffiths.

It's the Griffiths family that made Gawain a whopping $110 million.

Hill is the eldest son of the main branch of the Griffith family and will inherit the title and a vast fortune in the future. With his background, sharing a villa with the third prince, Hugh, would not be a problem. However, in terms of temperament, the two are completely different, and logically speaking, they should never get along.

It's all because of the promotion system!

Hill's aunt climbed the social ladder, paving the way for her family's rise to the royal court. She gave birth to the third prince, Hugh, and became a highly favored princess.

The Griffiths family were related to Hill through marriage. When Hill entered the Royal Magic University, he went straight to his cousin's villa and even stole his cousin's toilet, so they ended up urinating in the same pot.

Hill's intelligence is unknown. He tries to persuade people to reform themselves. He has a cousin who is also his roommate. Hugh initially refused because he likes quiet. He still refuses now, but he has gotten used to it.

"Cousin, what did you say over there?"

Three days ago, the school suddenly arranged for a new student to move in. He was a freshman in the history department named Gao Wen.

The whole thing seemed so absurd, leaving Hill quite puzzled. He was a sophomore, while his cousin Hugh was a junior. There was no reason for a freshman to move in, especially since the villa area was already full of empty rooms.

The key issue isn't age or vacant rooms, but rather the student's status. The fact that the school made this arrangement without consulting them suggests that the newcomer has some merit.

Out of curiosity, Hill asked around for information, just in case, and encouraged Hugh to ask around through his connections as well.

“I asked around, and it’s said to be related to your family.”
