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

"Of course Lei Bu's favorite disciple must be equipped with a good horse."

"...It's an honor." Ruan Xiaozhe tried hard to keep a calm expression.

The professor's "good intentions" are sometimes disturbing, but angering the professor is more terrifying than any demon.

Professor Lightning strode toward the stables and stopped in front of a beautiful white horse.

It was a beautiful white horse, neither too big nor too small, with solid muscles and a graceful figure.

Bai Ma glanced at Ruan Xiaozhe without any hostility in his eyes.

If Ruan Xiaozhe was still young, he might naively think that the professor really picked a good horse for him.

But he had experienced too many ups and downs in his two lifetimes and knew that things would never be that simple.

"Could this horse be a demon that turned into a white horse?" Ruan Xiaozhe thought to himself, being very alert.

"This horse is very good, but it is the most difficult to tame in the stable. If you can tame it, taming other monsters in the future will be no problem." Professor Lightning Step said with a smile.

“Of course, it might be too difficult for first graders.”

"If you think..." Ruan Xiaozhe interrupted hurriedly.

"However, since you can deal with the Thunderbird so easily, I believe you can do it! I believe in you!" Professor Lightning Step interrupted Ruan Xiaozhe.

"Damn it." Ruan Xiaozhe cursed in his heart. It was too unfair that the better the performance, the more difficult it would be.

While Ruan Xiaozhe was talking to Professor Lightning Step, the other students were still trying to approach their respective horses.

"Be good, be good... Ouch! It bit me!"

"Stop spitting! Stop it now!"

"It hit me!"

The horses' reaction caught the students off guard and caused chaos.

Nelia said cautiously to the people around her: "We should get familiar with the horses first."

"But we're trying," Gennando panted.

"No, don't just touch them. You can get up early to comb their hair, clean the stables, feed them... these are all necessary."

In fact, Neilia’s suggestion is not outrageous.

These were the steps she had taken to tame unfamiliar animals when she was with Shadow Patrol.

Unfortunately, many students present did not appreciate it.

"So troublesome?"

"Come to the stables every morning?"

"?! Are you crazy?"

Most of the students here come from wealthy families. They have been accustomed to having servants take care of horses since childhood and have never thought about doing it themselves.

"These people are so stupid!" Nilia was indignant, but she tried hard not to lose her temper.

She decided to act quietly on her own, hoping that the results would prove her method was correct in the future.

Seeing Nilia walking over dejectedly, Ruan Xiaozhe and Yunel hurried forward to greet her: "Nilia, have you chosen a horse? We plan to take care of the horses every morning, come together?"

"...Okay!" Nilia threw herself into Ruan Xiaozhe and Yunel's arms with tears in her eyes.

True friends belong to no tower!

Ruan Xiaozhe and Yunair looked at each other, confused.

"What's wrong with her?" Ruan Xiaozhe asked.

"Who knows?" Yunel spread his hands.

……

After the basic riding training class, Ruan Xiaozhe and Professor Lightning Step went to Professor Lei Step’s cabin together.

To be precise, Ruan Xiaozhe was dragged over...

Ruan Xiaozhe didn't dare to refuse Professor Lightning Step's request.

"You're here...Oh, no." Ruan Xiaozhe noticed that when Professor Lei Bu saw his relatives, his eyes were obviously shaken and his face turned pale for a moment.

"Why are you here?" Professor Lei Bu forced a smile.

"Do you need a reason to come and see me? Get out of the way! Look at this place. You're living in such a remote wooden house, and it's such a mess! Look at all this dust!"

"I've tried my best to organize it." Lei Bu tried to defend himself.

In fact, since Ruan Xiaozhe came, the wooden house is indeed much tidier than before.

"Sort it out? Is that what you call sorting out? Alchemy is good, but you should also find a partner and start a family. Do you plan to be single for the rest of your life? The elders at home are very worried about you..."

"..."

Professor Lei Bu looked at Ruan Xiaozhe helplessly, his eyes full of requests for help.

Ruan Xiaozhe couldn't ignore this look, so he tried to find a topic to talk about: "Professor, how about I go and prepare lunch?"

"Yes, yes. Since you have brought students here, you have to entertain them. Don't do it, Lei Bu. The western food you cook is terrible. Let me make eastern food."

"I don't really like Eastern flavors..." Lei Bu stammered.

"What did you say?" Lightning Step glared at him.

"Nothing." Professor Lei Bu muttered and closed his mouth, then looked at Ruan Xiaozhe earnestly.

"How have you been lately?" Lei Bu asked Ruan Xiaozhe bitterly, and his tone clearly asked him to help change the subject.
