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

"Why tell us now?"

Ruan Xiaozhe, who had always been polite in the face of the elves' various disputes and violent behaviors, roared angrily this time, and Perkutra was shocked by his reaction.

"No... didn't you ask..."

"You deal with students who go to school, but you don't even know the most important thing about them!"

"It's just a class, it's not a big deal..." Perkutra defended aggrievedly.

After all, he has been here for so long and has a general idea of ​​how magicians learn.

Don't we usually just sit together and listen to the professor's lectures? There won't be much difference between attending one or two classes and attending more classes.

The most important thing in learning magic is unremitting efforts and amazing talent. As for missing one or two classes, it is not a big deal at all...

"I have to hand in my homework. Not handing in my homework is absolutely not acceptable!"

Ruan Xiaozhe's words ignited determination in Yunel's eyes, and his red hair swayed back and forth as he nodded.

You know, most of the courses in the magic academy are extremely rigorous, and "Basic Imperial Geometry and Arithmetic" is particularly demanding.

"This is the design plan for the magic circle I submitted to the Empire when I was young. You need to calculate the total cost based on this plan and hand it in next week."

This is a crazy assignment. That crazy professor actually asked the students to calculate the total cost based on a thick book of magic circle designs!

Ruan Xiaozhe and Yunail gritted their teeth, cursed the professor and stayed up all night to complete the task.

Now that the homework has been completed, they will never allow themselves to fail to hand it in on time!

Otherwise, this injustice will keep them awake for weeks!

"Is it just because of an assignment?" Perkutra asked aggrievedly.

Hearing this, Ruan Xiaozhe and Yunel turned around and glared at him.

Normally gentle people can be much more terrifying when they get angry, and the normally docile young magicians were now glaring at Perkutra with murderous intent, causing him to shudder.

"Okay, okay, the homework is indeed important. I'm sorry."

"Please tell us what time it is."

After hearing what Perkutra said, Ruan Xiaozhe looked at the ceiling anxiously.

There is less than an hour and a half left until the Basic Imperial Geometry and Arithmetic course begins!

"Come on, Perkutra, please take us out."

"No... no."

Seeing the two young magicians staring at him with murderous eyes, Perkutra hurriedly explained:

"I have an agreement with the lich who summoned me to prevent students from escaping from this punishment room, so I cannot tell you the location of the exit. I originally planned to temporarily seal me here when you left."

After hearing this, Ruan Xiaozhe felt extremely frustrated.

He didn't know how complicated and strange the structure of the academy's underground punishment room was. Without Perkutra's help, they had no way of guaranteeing that they would leave on time.

Ruan Xiaozhe was unable to control his emotions due to anxiety: "Ah, why are you so useless! Then why should we contract you!"

……

Perkutra's self-esteem was hit.

Even battles against dragons or demons, or even a bloody battle with the Skeleton Headmaster, had never hurt his pride so much.

But the words of the young contractor hurt him deeply.

Perkutra couldn't help mumbling to himself, trying to defend himself:

"I am only like this in this special punishment room. When you get out, you can summon me. My ability..."

"Okay, so how do we seal you?"

"...You just need to order me to stay here for the time being."

Then, Ruan Xiaozhe sealed it according to Perkutra's instructions.

This order temporarily prevented Perkutra from leaving the forgotten punishment room.

"Let's go, Yunel."

"Don't forget to summon me when you get out! My abilities are more than that!"

"I know, I know."

"Don't forget! Don't forget! Do you hear me? Don't..."

……

rustling --

Despite the emergency, Ruan Xiaozhe and Yunair tried to remain calm.

They walked up and down the stairs and through the corridors, constantly drawing maps.

“It’s blocked here too.”

"Go back, this corridor is completely blocked."

"I'm afraid we'll have to go down two more floors and try again."

Click!

Suddenly, the sound of bone summons came from a distance.

Ruan Xiaozhe asked: "Have you found the way?"

Click, click, click!

The bone summons actively conveyed the idea that there was no road.

Ruan Xiaozhe couldn't help but smack his lips.

Although Ruan Xiaozhe, Yunair, and even the bone summons were looking for a exit, progress was still slow.

This punishment room was as complicated as an ant's nest, and no one knew which stairs led up, which stairs led to a closed punishment room at a dead end, and which stairs would just send people spinning in circles.

As Ruan Xiaozhe walked, he couldn't help but think of the face of the Skeleton Principal.

Maybe it was just an illusion, but he always felt that this punishment room was designed by Principal Skeleton himself.

"Go to that hallway again... No, wait, what did you bring?"

Ruan Xiaozhe was surprised to find that he had not noticed in his hurry to get on with his journey that the bone summoned creature, which originally only had forelimbs, had actually grown bigger!

What did it bring...?

Click!

I saw the bone summons assemble themselves, making clanging sounds, and finally formed a complete body!

Broad ribs, long tailbone, and hind leg bones. Although the skull and one leg were missing, Ruan Xiaozhe recognized it at a glance - it was a leopard skeleton.

“Could it be a leopard bone?”

Ruan Xiaozhe always thought that it was originally a human bone, but after thinking about it again, he realized that even if the professor of black magic was unpopular, he would not give human hand bones to freshmen.

"You should be ashamed of yourself for thinking that was a human hand bone."

The bone summon, or rather the leopard bone summon, stomped its feet confidently on the ground.

Now that it has grown in size, it seems to have become more confident.
