Farming in the Magical World

The night was peaceful, and the moonlight was like water.

The family academy across the river from the castle was brightly lit, with streaks of light shining through the windows.

The black figure writing tirelessly in front of the blackboard peeked out from the window, adding a touch of brightness to the otherwise still night.

Below the podium,

The people looked up, their eyes fixed on the black figure as it moved, their faces filled with fascination.

The stories that were circulated earlier were often embellished, and since most people are illiterate, the stories became increasingly distorted as they were passed down.

It has become more bizarre, but also more absurd and strange.

Whether listening to the standard version in the book or hearing such a beautiful woman narrate it, with a voice as clear as a nightingale and a voluptuous figure that evokes fantasies, it's hard for anyone to resist the temptation and not become engrossed.

Even when Lanny appeared at the window, it did not attract the attention of the people inside.

Lanny glanced at the students and frowned.

"Tsk tsk, why are they all men?"

Malcolm, who was standing beside him, seemed quite surprised.

"Do women also need to learn to read?"

"Of course, we will have more and more factories, and there will always be suitable positions for them."

“We didn’t stop them from signing up, but almost all of them were men, and I couldn’t do anything about it.”

"almost?"

“That’s right, a woman did sign up. Look over there, that’s Cody’s sister, Cora!”

Tsk... ...

Why is there only one woman here? This is unacceptable.

Lanny rubbed his teeth and, without turning his head, ordered, "Bring the women too. How can we manage with just men? Our territory already doesn't have enough people."

"Think of a way to attract them all... ...Oh, and don't force them!"

Luckily, I took the time to come and check it out; otherwise, I don't know how long it would have taken to discover the problem.

Judging from Malcolm's nonchalant attitude, he probably doesn't even see this as a problem, let alone recognize it.

That's not their fault.

While the world doesn't have such a severe problem of gender discrimination, men do indeed participate more in all aspects of society.

A woman.

While they don't stay indoors all the time, they almost always work at home and in the neighborhood, rarely participating in anything further afield.

"Yes, sir, I've got it!"

Turning his gaze away, Lanny took a few steps forward, but then frowned again.

The construction of the academy proceeded quickly, but the related facilities did not keep up. Even the lighting used magic lamps that were charged with magic power, which were charged by Melina and others in the castle and then delivered one by one at night.

The classroom is alright; the two magic lamps are enough to meet the lighting needs.

But the corridor was a different story; it was pitch black, and you could easily bump into something if you weren't careful.

Now it's not just one or two people; hundreds of people are going in and out every night. This problem must be solved.

"By the way, how's Victor's new generation of magic wire going?"

"It has been tested and production has begun. However, the proportion of grain was recently increased, which reduced the amount of Ruby used to produce Ruby wine, thus affecting the production of magic wire."

As they walked down the corridor, Lanny nodded.

Of course he knew about this; it was he who arranged it.

But it should be enough to solve the lighting problem for the college, right?

The current literacy classes are essentially like night schools. On the one hand, they are used to rehearse various matters of the family academy, and on the other hand, the trainees are all workers who only have time at night.

The real family academy will officially open in September.

The students who enrolled were all children from the area near the castle.

Of course, one class was the most special, and that was Jaina's group of children with magical talent.

They not only need to complete their cultural studies at the family academy, but they will also learn some magical knowledge next year.

And these children are naturally more prone to problems.

After a moment's thought, he continued, "Have someone lay the magic lines as soon as possible, and try to solve the lighting problem before the academy officially starts in September."

"Okay sir!"

As the classrooms were left behind, the passageway grew even darker without the light emanating from them.

Until the next special classroom appears.

This classroom is special because it is the largest in the entire college, capable of accommodating several times the number of people in a regular classroom.

This is also where the planned meeting room is located.

But at this moment, the place was completely full.

Apart from the brothers Delos and Delok, all the elite paladins among the prisoners were gathered here.

Some were disdainful, some were angry, some were indifferent, and some were bewildered.

The atmosphere was not very friendly.

All around, heavily armed soldiers kept a close eye on these guys, but did not interfere with their behavior... unless someone interfered with the classroom order.

Beside the podium, Lucifer's eyes were slightly narrowed, his expression calm, as if he were waiting for something.

And in the center of the podium

Tiffany wore a snow-white long dress, her figure was slender and her expression was gentle.

At this moment, she saw Lanny outside the window, nodded slightly, then glanced around before slowly beginning today's arrangements.

"Good evening, everybody!"

"I think everyone knows the person next to me."

"Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't know him. You should all have heard of his name. He is the famous angel with light wings... Lucifer."

As Tiffany spoke, Lucifer also unleashed his renowned Light Wings technique with a whoosh.

With wings shimmering with starlight, it's dreamy and beautiful.

Combined with Lucifer's handsome face with blond hair and blue eyes, it successfully caused a stir among the crowd below.

"Ah, it really is a winged angel..."

"Wasn't he in the Holy City? How come he's here?"

"Could he have been captured too...?"

The Pope did not make Lucifer's defection public, and it remains under tight control even now.

Some lower-ranking knights were unaware that Lucifer was no longer in the Holy City.

Delos, who knew the truth, saw that he could no longer hide it, and stood up angrily, pointing his finger at Lucifer and questioning him.

"Lucifer, you betrayed the Holy Church, yet you still have the nerve to show your face? Aren't you afraid of being punished by the Holy Lord?"

"What are you trying to do by showing up here again? Are you trying to mislead us?"

"Child, it's not too late to repent now."

As soon as these words were spoken, the previously quiet classroom immediately erupted into a buzz of discussion.

"What? He... he apostasy?"

"So, when did this happen?"

"Impossible! He was personally appointed by His Majesty as an angel, how could he betray his faith?"

"But how do you explain that he's standing on the stage right now?"

"this... ..."

"Damn it, how dare you betray the faith..."

Various speculations, disbelief, and insults...

Faced with Delos's questioning, and the doubts and insults of the crowd, Lucifer, who had retracted his secret technique and landed on the ground, smiled slightly, raised his neck, and spoke loudly.

"I... I did not apostatize!"
