I really just want to hang out in the magic world.

"Ahem, classmate, please come to my studio during the break." Professor Mortum said to Genando with a cough.

"what?"

Gennando looked as if he had been slapped in the face.

why?

Am I doing something wrong?

Could it be that he has a grudge against the imperial family?

"And you, classmate." Professor Mortum pointed at Ruan Xiaozhe.

Seeing this, Ruan Xiaozhe was not as frightened as Gannando.

After all, in order to get credits more easily, he had seriously considered whether to take black magic as an elective.

However, for the students of Qinglong Tower, this has another meaning.

"Guinando, you bastard! Because of you, even Vodanaz will be taken away!"

"Are you so stupid that you can't even kill yourself?!"

"Go and tell the professor that you are going alone!"

Apparently, they mistakenly thought that Ruan Xiaozhe was forcibly taken away because of his good relationship with Ganando.

The students were angry.

Ruan Xiaozhe still has a lot of things to be responsible for now, why should he be dragged into this by you?

"You bastard... I knew you wouldn't go alone! You must bring someone with you!"

……

Gennando was enraged by his classmates' accusations and began to become stubborn.

"Go and tell the professor to cancel Ruan Xiaozhe's appointment!"

"No!" Ganando said firmly, tilting his head.

"Cancel!"

"Never!"

"Everyone, Professor Mortum has left." Professor Garcia looked at the students of the Qinglong Tower with helpless eyes.

……

To put it simply, a general magician's studio is a research room.

The magician and his apprentices work 24 hours a day, conducting various experiments and explorations, and spontaneously studying topics of their interest.

Of course, this sounds more like a hell that makes people collapse, and in fact, it is indeed so...

Although the studios of different magicians vary greatly, the lives of apprentices are generally difficult.

Ruan Xiaozhe has also heard many stories about magic apprentices studying in the studio in his family:

——"A long time ago, there was an apprentice studying under a magician."

——"Every morning after getting up, he would sharpen his wand, make the potions needed for the experiment according to the alchemical formula, regulate the magic power in the magic circle, and then go out to collect materials..."

——"This apprentice is very smart, so he can simply eat his lunch outside, and use the saved time to do the next thing..."

——"Is the ending of this story that the apprentice killed the magician and took over the studio?" The still very young Ruan Xiaozhe asked curiously, blinking his big watery eyes.

——"Master, are you kidding? The ending is of course that this apprentice studied hard and eventually became an excellent magician."

——"..."

From this it can be seen that no matter in which world, there is no paradise for learners...

But luckily, it’s not too early to worry about these things!

Ruan Xiaozhe is just a first-year student!

He hasn't decided yet which professor he will intern with, so there's nothing to be afraid of.

If you encounter a mad professor, just stay away from him quietly...

……

"Woooooooo..."

"... Are you really crying?" Ruan Xiaozhe was a little surprised.

At this moment, Genando's eyes were really red.

"What on earth did I do wrong... to be called to such a gloomy and secluded place..."

"It's not necessarily because you did something wrong, right?"

"What else could it be?! That professor of dark arts must be in a bad mood and called me here to torture me!"

At this time, Ruan Xiaozhe and the other person were walking towards Professor Mortum's studio.

Ruan Xiaozhe also felt that the location of Professor Mortum's studio was indeed a bit problematic.

“Isn’t this place too spooky?”

As we walked along, the road became more and more desolate, the wind became stronger and stronger, and it seemed as if we could hear the voices of ghosts in the forest beside us...

During this time, he and Gennando even saw some cemeteries...

Of course, this is not completely incomprehensible - black magic basically requires Yin attribute magic, and studying the undead also requires corpses...

To meet all these conditions at the same time, this place is naturally gloomy...

"But if we still expect new students to come to a place like this, then..." Ruan Xiaozhe looked around and smacked his lips in his heart.

In the distance, Professor Moltum's studio, a building called the "Dark Hall", began to come into view.

On the surface, it is just a four-story tower, but a magician's buildings are not just superficial.

Ruan Xiaozhe looked carefully, and some clues revealed near the tower gave him a general idea.

Broken and scattered skulls and bones...

A tombstone stuck randomly in the ground...

Poison bottles and boxes marked "Danger! Touch will kill!"

Ruan Xiaozhe could probably guess what kind of experiments and research were usually carried out in this studio.

In this gloomy atmosphere, Genando's face had become so pale that it was almost indistinguishable from that of an undead.

"Is anyone there?" Ruan Xiaozhe knocked on the door.

crunch--

After the knock, the door opened automatically and Ruan Xiaozhe and Ganando walked in together.

Genando was so frightened that he was shaking, and subconsciously tried to grab Ruan Xiaozhe's collar, but Ruan Xiaozhe impatiently slapped his hand away.

Genando's face was filled with betrayal.

"Ahem...you are here."
