All the heavens began with Huo Yi

Suer strolled along the road; he had been walking along the large lake in front of him for a long time.

During this time, Suer also took care of a crab the size of a house. It was because he didn't make a seamless extension bag; otherwise, Suer would definitely have taken this unfamiliar creature.

"It's true what they say, 'Looking at a mountain makes you run yourself ragged.' How come Lake Lienia is so big?" Sur shook his head and sighed as he looked at the towering buildings in front of him.

Suer had already decided where he was going—the renowned Reyarukaria Magic Academy. After all, he had sensed from the game that it had a vast collection of books, practically an ocean of knowledge!

"Help~"

……

Is anyone there...?

After walking two or three miles, Suer faintly heard cries for help, seemingly not far ahead.

Sull quickened his pace and ran towards the direction of the sound. When he got close to the source of the sound, he cast the Illusion Spell and then slowly approached again.

A black-haired girl, dressed in a blue robe, stood on a boulder calling for help, while a giant lobster trapped her.

Even from a distance, the lobster was over three meters tall, and its raised pincers could be about six meters off the ground. Even when the girl stood on the boulder, her feet were only a little bit away from the lobster's pincers.

The lobster would occasionally spit out a jet of water at the disheveled girl on the boulder, wetting her clothes and making her stumble.

"Ava da kendawa!"

A flash of green light, and the lobster that had been so arrogant just moments before lay sprawled on the ground, its massive claws drooping limply.

Sul's Killing Curse is no joke; calling him a master of the Killing Curse wouldn't be an exaggeration. It's only reasonable that the giant lobster could be revived in an instant, especially since Sul had just recited the incantation. Even if he cast the spell without a staff, its power wouldn't be lacking.

After dispelling the illusion spell, Sull revealed himself. "Alright, come down. This lobster is dead. Fly over!"

"Oh ah!"

The girl screamed and flew off the boulder, only to be pulled in front of her by Suer out of thin air.

"Hello, thank you. I am Serian, a student at Reyalukaria Academy. Thank you for saving me just now."

Serlian?

Upon hearing this, Su Er couldn't help but think to herself, "She's still a student? It seems the timeline is a bit too early."

"Selian, why aren't you studying properly with your teachers at the academy? What are you doing outside?" Suer asked.

"Well, the academy isn't just full of bookworms; there are quite a few practical types too. After all, traveling ten thousand miles is worse than reading ten thousand books."

"I happen to be a pragmatist. After getting permission from my teacher, I traveled to various stargazing towers in Lienia. However, I was summoned back by my teacher because of some business, and then a little accident happened, just like what you just saw." Serian explained the reason for his trip while wiping the water off his mage robes.

"The spring water is clear and refreshing, leaving everything clean and new."

Seeing that Serian's clothes were sticky and wet, Sull put himself in Serian's shoes and realized that it must be uncomfortable. So he casually pointed and used magic to clean Serian's body.

"Oh, thank you!"

"It's alright, you have a great figure," Su Er chuckled.

Serian blushed slightly upon hearing this, but she quickly recovered and said, "Your magic just now wasn't from the border region, was it? I've never seen it before."

"You're just a student, do you think you know a lot about magic? What makes you think I'm not from the border region?"

"Huh? I'm the teacher's favorite student. I know almost all the spells in the borderlands. Besides, when you used magic just now, I didn't see you draw any magic runes!"

Even the clergy have magical runes when they pray, your magic must come from outside the borderlands! Serian looked at Sull, his eyes shining like a goblin seeing gold, and even his address became a respectful one.

“Really? Well, I admit I do come from outside the border, but as your teacher’s favorite student, why would a lobster trap you?” Sue said with a smile.

Upon hearing Sull's words, Serian immediately began to defend himself, "That's because most of the spells I've learned are basic gem magic, which aren't very offensive. The lobster's shell is also thick, and even when I ran out of mana, I couldn't repel it. But your magic just now seemed very unusual, like golden lightning, which could directly penetrate the shell to damage and kill that wretched lobster."

Upon hearing Serian's words, Suer nodded. "So, what is the purpose of your return this time?"

"My teacher said that Princess Lani's coming-of-age ceremony is coming up, so she plans to take me to broaden my horizons. Mage Sull, you can come with me too! I think the royal family of Kalia will be very curious about your magic."

"Of course, I am also very curious about the magic of the borderlands. If possible, I would like to learn the magic of the borderlands."

With such an excellent student as Serian as a mentor, Sull was naturally happy. After all, he was new to the area and had no reputation. Even if he entered Reyalukaria, he probably wouldn't learn anything good at first.

It has to be said that having Serian lead the way is much better than struggling on your own.

Serian led Suer forward for a short while, then used a teleportation array to take Suer directly to the south gate of the academy.

"Hello, Serian, you're back?" x2

"Hello!" Serian greeted the two mages on guard at the south gate, then led Suer into the academy, completely ignoring the Reyarukarian knights.

The two mages didn't question Sull's background, which suggests that Serian must indeed be a famous figure, a renowned genius throughout the school.

"Teacher, I'm back!"

Serian led Sue through the vast complex for over fifteen minutes before finally finding her teacher.

When Sur saw Serian's teacher, he was shocked. Sur could sense that the mage's head was a stone, not flesh and blood! Because his Legilimency had failed!

“This is my teacher, Luther Hilarium. Teacher, this is the mage I met from outside the border. He saved me. He wants to exchange magic with the academy. And could you take him with you to the princess’s coming-of-age ceremony?” Serian introduced Sull and Luther to each other.

"Hello, Mage Luther."

“Hello, Mage Suer.” Luther nodded to Suer. “Thank you for saving my good apprentice. You can rest at the academy for a while. If you need to exchange magic, you are welcome to do so at any time. We will be going to Kalia in about three days. If you need anything during that time, you can tell Serian. If Serian cannot do it, you can come to me.”

“I will, Mage Luther, thank you for your hospitality,” Sull replied.

……

"Selian, what's with the stone on your teacher's head?"

"You mean the stone crown on Professor Hylalim's head? It's a symbol of a master in the academy, and one day I will get it too."

Serian's answer made Sue realize that she might not know that her teacher's head had turned into a stone, and Sue did not intend to reveal this to Serian.

"Why do you call your teacher Hylalim? Is there a reason?" Sull asked. He had used Legilimency when he first met Serian, but who knew that this unknown Hylalim was actually Russert?

“I’m used to it, and it feels more intimate this way. I only address my teacher as Master Luther in formal settings, such as during class,” Serian replied.

“By the way, I’ll bring you some basic spellbooks later. You can take a look first, and if there’s anything you don’t understand, you can tell me. I can teach basic magic, and I don’t think you’ll learn any slower than Junior Topps,” Serian said.
