Another World: The Failed Magician

“Sister Charlotte, it’s already afternoon! I remember the Dean said that the afternoon is our own time, we don’t have to cultivate, let’s go to town and have some fun, how about it?” Mo Yun said to Charlotte.

Seeing Charlotte still lost in thought and not answering her, Mo Yun buried her little head in Charlotte's arms and said coquettishly, "Go! Go!"

Charlotte's mood actually improved a lot after Mo Yun did that. She gently ruffled Mo Yun's hair and said, "Okay! I give up. Let's go, but I have a condition. You have to promise me first before I'll go with you."

Mo Yun stepped out of Charlotte's embrace and said happily, "I knew Charlotte was the best! What do you want? Don't worry, Charlotte, I'll definitely agree to anything I can do."

"It's nothing serious. Your brother Rod's training should be almost finished by now. Go and play with him for a while. I have some questions about magic that I want to ask my teacher. I'll come find you two when I'm done, okay?" Charlotte's tone was still as gentle as ever.

"Okay! I'll go first then. Sister Charlotte, you have to come quickly!" With that, Mo Yun skipped and hopped towards the academy's playground.

After seeing Mo Yun leave, Charlotte slowly closed the book in her hand, stood up, and walked towards the magic classroom.

When Charlotte entered the magic classroom, she saw Lu Xuan lying on the podium, looking drowsy.

Charlotte said with a hint of apology, "Teacher, I'm sorry I'm late."

Lu Xuan waved his hand to indicate that he didn't care, and pointed to the desk opposite him, gesturing for Charlotte to sit down.

After Charlotte sat down, she handed the nameless book back to Lu Xuan and said, "Teacher, I have finished reading this book and I feel that the magic recorded in it is not suitable for me."

Although Lu Xuan's expression remained calm, a hint of surprise flickered in his eyes.

Lu Xuan calmly said, holding the note in his hand, "Howard Charlotte is the granddaughter of Howard Bantu, the Pope of the Holy Kingdom of Light, and also one of the candidates for the next Holy Maiden of the Holy Kingdom of Light. She showed extraordinary talent when she was just ten years old and could start cultivating. In just two years, she cultivated Holy Light Magic, one of the most difficult magics in the world, to the level of a beginner mage. She should have been living a life of glory, but because of her close relationship with Cape Rod, the heir of the Cape family, she joined the team that escorted the Cape family to the border. Unfortunately, the Cape family suddenly rebelled, and this young and talented princess died tragically in the rebellion. Cape Rod escaped from the Holy Kingdom of Light in the chaos."

Charlotte was fine at first, after all, it was understandable for others to investigate her as a student here. But the more she listened, the less she understood, and even her smile became somewhat unnatural.

After pausing for a moment, Charlotte tried to speak calmly, saying, "Teacher, I'm standing right in front of you, how can you say I'm dead? And when did the Capet family rebel again? We must have been ambushed on the road, and it was only with the Capet family's protection that we escaped here. So what do you mean by all that, Teacher?"

Lu Xuan waved his hand and said, "These are all notices issued by the Holy Light Church." He then handed a notice to Charlotte.

At first, Charlotte didn't believe it, but after seeing the notice bearing the distinctive symbol of the Holy Light Church and finding that it matched what Lu Xuan had said, her expression shifted from confusion to anger, and finally to a hint of helplessness.

After observing that Charlotte had gradually calmed down, Lu Xuan said, "I think you should understand your current situation now. The booklet I gave you records all the magic systems that Frunze can cultivate. You can choose one or two to cultivate. You also know that among the human empires, only the Holy Light Church of your Light God Kingdom has preserved the methods for cultivating Holy Light magic. But as things stand now, it seems that you have virtually no chance of obtaining the methods for cultivating Holy Light magic beyond the initial stage of magic from the Holy Light Church. Therefore, I suggest you choose one from the booklet you are looking at. Don't worry, Frunze Academy possesses equally top-notch magic cultivation methods. They won't be inferior to the Holy Light magic you cultivated before. How so? I need to think about it some more."

Charlotte looked conflicted upon hearing what Lu Xuan said.

Seeing Charlotte, who hadn't spoken for a while, Lu Xuan spoke first, saying, "Changing the magic you're practicing is a big deal. You should go back and think it over more. Whether you choose to continue with Holy Light Magic or switch to another type of magic, go and rest for now, since it's already time for get out of class to end." After saying that, Lu Xuan left the classroom.
