I materialized a sci-fi fortress in a magical world.

"My name is Odo, one of the vice deans of the academy. The students also like to call me 'Butler.' You can talk to me about any questions you have about the academy."

The monk introduced himself and was quite enthusiastic towards Luo Yue.

Luo Yue glanced at the insignia on his chest. Its luxurious gold material and beautiful gemstone edging proved that he was a fifth-tier mage, a figure of considerable importance in the old world, and probably a confidant of the Great Witch.

So he didn't stand on ceremony and started asking him all sorts of questions about the college.

After listening for a while, he realized that the academy seemed to be a pretty good place.

Regardless of how much one can learn, it is certainly a great place to enhance one's resume. The key is that it allows one to easily bypass knowledge barriers and fully unleash one's talents and gifts.

Anyway, that's what the academy's butler, Odo, said...

Luo Yue wanted to ask more questions, but suddenly someone knocked on the door and came in, whispered something in Odo's ear, then stepped aside and stared at Luo Yue with a straight look, his eyes full of doubt and envy.

"Many nobles outside want to get to know you. Would you like to meet them?"

Odo asked with a smile.

Luo Yue instinctively wanted to refuse. He didn't like interacting with nobles, and he also wanted some peace and quiet to organize his thoughts and explore the new functions of the mind space.

But after thinking about it, he still asked Odo for advice:

"Who are the people I should be meeting?"

"If you're interested in currying favor, then you'd better meet them all. But if you want to focus on academics, then apart from the Grand Duke, no one else matters. After all, our school's sphere of influence is mainly within the duchy."

Oddo explained, then, as if reminding him, added an extra sentence:

"Don't forget, you are favored by the Great Witch."

Luo Yue understood instantly and quickly replied:

"I understand, Dean Odo. Let's go see the Grand Duke."

Odo nodded slightly, seemingly approving of Royo's choice, and then said:

"No need to rush. Your close friend, Lemir, is a trusted confidante of the Grand Duke. We can wait until she has rested before going together."

"Okay, I understand. I'll go rest for a bit then. I also want to take a shower... To be honest, I've felt really tired ever since I left [The Banquet]. It's like all the pent-up fatigue just suddenly exploded?"

"No problem, take him to the best room."

Odo spoke to the young mage who had come to deliver the message.

........................

"Hmph~ Does gaining the Great Witch's favor mean I can ignore those nobles like marquises?"

As Luo Yue lay in the bathtub, recalling the experiences of the past two days, she suddenly felt a sense of unreality and disorientation.

Having transmigrated for over a decade, the highest-ranking noble I've ever met is a town lord, a baron. Right now, I've only gained a little favor from the Great Witch, yet I can already disregard even marquises and the like.

Indeed, in the face of absolute power, titles, bloodlines, wealth, and authority are as thin as paper.

Luo Yue recalled the Council of Sages, which the beautiful female teacher had criticized many times. They were the actual rulers of the new world, and those secular regimes were nothing more than stewards and white gloves used to deal with mortals.

But he was also very clear-headed; the great witch didn't favor him, but rather that mysterious being.

"If you rely on yourself, then you can only say that in this world, your reputation is entirely self-made."

Luo Yue mentally complained, then got out of the bathtub, lay down on the bed, and pretended to sleep, but actually opened up his mental space and began to try out the new function he had just acquired.

There are two: one is newly acquired, and the other is a new change derived from [spiritual gift].

Let's talk about the new one first. It's a bit like "enhancement" in a game; it can only be used on perfect-quality magical artifacts and equipment, and it consumes "spiritual energy."

Luo Yue first tested it with the ritual knife. After activating the [Enhancement] function, he could see the knife's original attributes.

[Increased Casting Speed ​​(Intermediate)]

[Mysticism Skill Damage Increased (Intermediate)]

After consuming a portion of [Spiritual Energy], [Enhancement] was activated. A few seconds later, three options appeared before Luo Yue's eyes, allowing him to choose a specific direction for enhancement.

[Increased Casting Speed ​​(Advanced)]

[Mysticism Skill Damage Increased (Advanced)]

[Physical Sharpness Increased (Advanced)]

Then, the fun begins. Luo Yue focuses his attention on the first option, and a short video immediately appears next to it, demonstrating the enhancement effect in detail.

The main character that can be demonstrated is actually the beautiful girl teacher, Celestina?

In the scene, she is facing a group of fierce-looking bandits, her empty hands slowly performing mystical skills.

Because her spellcasting speed was not fast enough, she was quickly approached by the thugs, who beat her so badly that she had to run away with her head in her hands and cried.

Then, the scene flashes, and Seresina suddenly has a ceremonial knife in her hand. The camera even gives a close-up, showing a mysterious glint of light flashing across the knife.

When she faced the group of ruthless bandits again, her spellcasting speed increased dramatically, and she subdued them in the blink of an eye.

She stood beside the unconscious thug, hands on her hips, a cartoon-style speech bubble appearing above her head, and said:

ヽ(○^㉨^)ﾉ♪

He looks quite smug...

After watching the demonstration, Luo Yue was both amused and puzzled as to why Celisina was chosen as the protagonist.

He then turned his attention to the second and third options, which also included "short videos".

The main character is still a beautiful female teacher. The demonstration style of the second option is similar to that of the first. She is first beaten by thugs and makes a whimpering sound, but then she takes the enhanced knife and instantly kills them.

The third option is shown as Celishina sitting at the dining table, holding a knife and elegantly cutting bread, with the bright morning sunlight shining through the window beside her.

But as she chopped and chopped, the light outside the window quickly changed from dawn to dusk and then to night, and before she could even cut the bread, she was so hungry that she felt dizzy.

Then the scene shifts, the knife is enhanced, a cold light flashes at the edge, and the bread is easily sliced ​​off. Celishina immediately smiles sweetly, holding the sliced ​​bread in both hands, and eating it slowly in small bites.

Although I don't know why she was chosen as the main character, to be fair, Celestina in the demo was quite cute, almost to the point of being overly adorable...

As for the scene of being beaten up and running away in a pitiful state, that would never happen in reality. What kind of robber would dare to fight against the "Rebellious Enchantress"?

"This new feature is so much fun!"

Luo Yue laughed, then thought for a moment and chose the first enhancement direction.

He hasn't mastered those mental attack-type mystical skills yet. This dagger is mainly used for casting magic, so naturally, casting speed is the most practical choice.
