Witch Training Manual: My Water Magic Is Wrong

When Wayne returned to the Marquis's mansion.

It was afternoon.

He went home with the map the falcon had given him.

He encountered Alice as soon as he entered the door.

Alice's gaze fell on the map in his hand. She paused, then asked curiously, "Brother, what's that?"

Wayne raised his hand.

"Is that what you're asking?"

Alice nodded: "Yes, that's it."

Wayne explained, "A map of the City of Eternal Sleep."

"Brother, are you planning to leave?"

"Yes, I plan to leave the day after tomorrow."

"I see..." Alice nodded, then seemed to suddenly remember something. "Oh right, brother, today is Emma and Ella's day off. Aren't you going to pick them up?"

Wayne slapped his forehead: "Oh right, I almost forgot about this if you hadn't mentioned it. I promised them before."

Before Wayne could react, Alice grabbed his arm first: "Brother, I want to go too."

Wayne glanced at her and said without much hesitation, "Okay, let's go together then. The weather's nice today, we can walk."

Before long, the two walked out of the Marquis's mansion side by side and headed down the street toward the Royal Magic Academy.

Alice walked beside Wayne.

"Brother, who are you planning to take with you to the City of Eternal Sleep this time?"

Wayne thought for a moment: "I think I'll probably bring Emily! Her shadow abilities are quite useful in that kind of environment."

"Just the two of you?"

"Yeah. Too many people will actually make it easier to spot us."

Alice's face showed worry, but there was nothing she could do to change anything. All she could do was say, "...Then brother, you have to be careful."

"Yes."

Just then, the panel appeared.

[Hena - Real-time Event Updates]

[Event Details: Just now, Her Majesty the Queen, guided by your "cousin" Hena, completed a high-quality Goddess Thanksgiving experience in a dream.]

[Hena's feedback: Overall, the dream-like experience of receiving the Water Magic Blessing is not as good as the real-life experience, and the self-redemption in reality is not as good as the magical blessing you personally guided me to receive.]

[Note: Queen Evelyn knew Hena long before she knew you. Hena secretly obtained the Queen's tacit approval regarding the circulation of certain low-grade forbidden items in the capital. This is why those items were able to bypass the Papacy's oversight system and reach Frosttown.]

Wayne had a sudden thought.

Hena, it's been a long time since we've heard from her. I never expected that she would know Evelyn.

And it sounds like they're still friends.

Interesting, interesting.

The two continued walking along the street towards the Royal Magic Academy. A few minutes later, the academy's main gate came into view. A crowd had gathered at the gate, mostly parents picking up their children, with a few scattered young people who looked like students carrying books in and out.

Wayne's gaze swept across the crowd, around the entrance, and then settled on the two familiar figures under the courtyard gate.

Emma and Ella were already waiting there. Emma was standing on tiptoe, looking towards the street. As soon as she saw Wayne appear at the street corner, she was like a firecracker, grabbing Ella's hand and running towards him.

"Master—!" Emma rushed to Wayne, almost stopping herself in time. "You really came to pick us up! I thought you'd forgotten about it because you were so busy!"

Wayne reached out and pressed down on her head.

"I won't forget what I promised you."

Ella, on the other hand, is much quieter.

She gave a slight bow upon seeing Wayne.

"Master, it's been a long time."

Emma quickly noticed Alice behind Wayne and greeted her warmly, "Sister Alice is here too!" Alice smiled slightly, "The weather is nice today, so I came out for a walk with my brother and picked you up."

The four of them walked back along the street side by side.

On the way back, Wayne said casually.

"How are you doing at the academy?"

Emma almost blurted out, "It's not fun at all! The teachers there are so fierce, and..."

She stopped mid-sentence.

She didn't continue speaking.

The panel popped up at this point.

[Emma's College Life Supplement]

Because of her background, she had been openly and subtly ostracized by several students from aristocratic families in her class several times. However, her talent for fourth-tier fire magic was undeniable, and so far no one dared to truly harm her.

[Note: To her shock, there were many young couples in the college, some even living together in dorm rooms. The college's management in this regard was much more relaxed than she had imagined.]

[Note 2: As a fire witch, her magical energy circulation is constantly at a high level, which often makes her irritable. However, her nightly prayers to the goddess of gratitude are her best way to find peace.]

[P.S. It's a pity she didn't have Wendy's precognitive visions, otherwise she would have had a completely different experience.]

After glancing at the panel, Wayne pretended not to have seen anything and naturally continued her unfinished sentence: "And what?"

Emma shook her head quickly.

"It's nothing, it's nothing! I'm just not used to the rules at the academy, and I feel uncomfortable everywhere."

Ella, standing beside her, spoke up at the opportune moment to correct her, "The academy is a place to study, not to play. You'll feel less uncomfortable once you get used to it."

Emma, ​​unusually, didn't argue with her sister. She simply nodded obediently and said, "Sister is right. I will definitely work hard and strive to be as excellent as you."

Emma said that because she knew very well that the tuition at the Royal Magic Academy was very expensive. So expensive that when she happened to pass by the bulletin board and glanced at the number, she calculated in her mind for a long time and finally confirmed that the money was enough for an ordinary family in Frost Town to live a wealthy life for several years.

She didn't want to be a burden to her master.

Wayne turned his gaze to Ella.

"How are you feeling?"

Ella nodded, her tone much more composed than her sister's: "The curriculum at the academy is very systematic. Many things that I had to figure out on my own in Frosttown have a clearer theoretical basis in the classroom. The teachers are also very professional, especially the professor who teaches the basic theory of potions. He explains things very thoroughly, and I learn a lot of new things in every class."

"My sister is amazing!" Emma immediately chimed in. "During the opening exam, my sister got the highest score in the entire grade for her theory class! The teacher even praised her in class, saying that she was the student with the most solid foundation she had ever taught!"

Ella blushed slightly at her sister's praise and said modestly, "It's just that I happened to have seen some of the material on the test back in Frost Town, it's nothing."

Wayne glanced at Ella: "Getting first place means your efforts weren't in vain."

Ella's eyes brightened slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her lips: "Thank you, Master."

Emma stood beside her, watching her sister being praised, even happier than if she herself were being praised. She added, "And my sister remembers things incredibly fast! She can memorize long passages after reading them only once. Even her teacher says she has a photographic memory!"

Wayne's gaze lingered on Ella's face for a moment.

A photographic memory is an extremely rare talent in the fields of potion-making and rune research. Perhaps it will become a great asset to her in the future.
