feed on dragons

The team was not moving fast.The professor and the prince watched the students' homework and discussed in low voices from time to time.The students who had finished their homework were instructed to wait on the sidelines. Some discussed in whispers, while some stared in the direction of the prince and the professor, unconsciously playing with the rings on their hands, with nervous expressions.

Tension, excitement, anticipation... Julian could feel those emotions coming from the direction of the waiting area when he settled down.This is a small ability that he didn't know when he was fed and his obscene instinct and magic power increased day by day. He finds it interesting, but he doesn't use it often. At most, he secretly checks the teacher's mood when handing out the test papers. bad.

But the emotions of the waiting students were so high that he could easily find out...Julian couldn't help but glance to the side.

Among the mixed emotions, the most intense is the high expectation that beats the heart.

what to expect

Julian looked at the only group of people left in front of him, and at the same time felt Daining who was standing next to him take a deep breath.

Are you so nervous?He couldn't help looking up at his friend. The red-haired young man pursed his lips and held his breath. Julian couldn't help but patted his tightly clenched fist to comfort him.

The group of students in front left, and Professor Marius and the prince watched them.Julian could feel that even Professor Marius was nervous.

What is the professor nervous about?Because the prince sat next to him?

Even if he could sense his emotions a little bit, Julian was still very strange about the current atmosphere.He handed out the formation paper with both hands, and Dai Ning also handed in his own. Professor Marius looked at the two formations, and suddenly frowned.

"Julian." He raised his head and looked at the young man with a displeased expression, "The assignment requires a single person to attack the formation, which means that the requirement must be driven by a single person's magic power. Why do you hand in a magic formation that requires at least two people to drive it?" Come up? And this double formation has only one entrance for magic power flow, do you think this can be considered a single formation?"

"No, Professor." Julian didn't even move his eyebrows, "It's a one-man formation."

"Single formation! You drew a composite formation of water and fire, and there are three augmentation formations next to it. Have you ever calculated how much magic power is needed? Show me how to drive it alone!"

The professor slapped the table angrily, and the loud bang made the low voices of conversation that filled the space suddenly quiet.

"Please let me explain, this..." Julian wanted to justify his design, but Marius held out a hand to signal him to stop talking.

"No need to explain, this homework is unqualified, you go to the side. Dai Ning..."

"professor…!"

The young man was a little panicked. Why is Professor Marius so weird today that he refused to listen to his homework design?He wanted to say something more, but the principal standing beside him shouted in unison: "Enough, go to the side! Julian!"

Julian looked at Dai Ning as if begging for help. Dai Ning also seemed frightened by this sudden development, but just when he was about to speak up to defend Julian, Marius just raised his head and asked him about his homework. It was a thousand miles away from the tone of directly judging Julian out.Dai Ning could only explain his design obediently, while Julian, who was astonished, was pulled aside by the principal, cutting off all his struggles like this.

The young man stood in the corner inexplicably.He looked at the headmaster and then at the professor, but the headmaster didn't even look at him, and while Marius was listening to Denning's report, he would sneak a glance at him from time to time, which made Julian feel a little sorry the meaning of.

Feel sorry?

He couldn't understand the whole thing more and more.

"...It's almost like this." After Daining explained his design direction, Marius nodded and said, "Very good, this is a very solid formation, a single formation with a mixture of wind and fire, although the magic power required is a bit large , but it can still be pressed to the limit, and the explosive effect is also very good, in my opinion, it is the best one in the whole batch. What do you think, Your Highness?"

Dai Ning opened his mouth and shut it immediately.He originally wanted to take a chance to try to save Julian, but the professor didn't even give him a chance, and directly threw the conversation to the prince. He couldn't intervene in the prince's words, could he?Forget about the professor and the headmaster, but the prince, he really can't afford to mess with him.

"Um…."

Yaqibel didn't answer right away, but continued to look at Daining's drawing.The prince was silent for an anxiously long time, but when he spoke, everyone was stunned.

"...I want to take another look at the water-fire composite formation just now."

Both Julian and Dai Ning gasped in astonishment, and Professor Marius stared at Aceh Bell in surprise.

"But, Your Highness, that picture doesn't match..."

"Please let me take another look."

The prince said with a smile.Although the words were gentle and polite, the tone sounded non-negotiable at all. Marius sighed secretly, took out the one he had put aside, and handed Julian's magic circle to Acehbel.The eldest prince looked at the picture and didn't speak for a while, and the whole classroom fell silent, not even whispering.Everyone's eyes were fixed on the prince, and Julian was certainly not surprised. He tightened his fingers, his heart dangling as if being hung in the air.

"...Professor Marius." Finally, the prince said, "Did you read it wrong?"

"Yes?" The professor swallowed nervously, "What's wrong?"

"This is indeed a single-person formation." The prince pointed to the three additional small formations outside the big circle of the main formation. "Although there are three augmentation formations, it is indeed a single-person formation."

"This... this..." Marius didn't say anything for a long time, but Dai Ning keenly noticed that the professor secretly exchanged glances with the principal.

Oh?

Dai Ning began to feel that there was something wrong with it.

"This operation is not only qualified, but also quite excellent. Regardless of the fact that the formation of water and fire in this formation is originally a very difficult formation, the three augmentation formations on the outside cleverly divert the inflowing energy through two amplifications and then into each of them. Water array and fire array, this method greatly strengthens the power, it is a very interesting design, even if it is applied in practice, it does not need too many changes.”

"Is that so..." The professor wanted to say something else, but Dai Ning quickly took a step forward and said, "That's right, Your Highness is really careful, and he can realize that not all of the three boosting arrays are used on this array. Yes! I’m in a team with Julian. He explained the design of this formation to me. In fact, my homework with him was discussed together, so at least half of my wind-fire composite formation was designed by him. !Julian he—”

"Daining, it's alright!"

Marius stopped him angrily.Dai Ning became a little angry now. He was about to question why Professor Marius kept making trouble for Julian today, but the prince stood up at this moment.

"Professor Marius, Principal Chapman."

He glanced at the two people respectively, and said with a smile, "Thank you very much for your help. The students in your school are indeed as good as ever, and it is really difficult to make a decision—but I think I have already made a decision."

The momentary commotion of the students in the waiting area made Julian unable to take a step back.He felt that many resentful eyes were poking at him like arrows, and the young man hurriedly tried to control his emotional perception, trying his best not to feel those disappointments, injustices and anger.He turned to look at the prince, and the latter happened to be looking at him.The handsome man smiled gently at him.

"Julian and Denin. You two come with me."

The prince nodded to the professor and the principal, then strode out of the classroom, and the black-haired man who had been standing quietly behind him also walked out.Julian stared blankly at the prince's back, his little head hadn't turned his head, and couldn't understand what happened; but Dai Ning clenched his fists excitedly and shouted, then rushed to Julian, grabbing his hand Then he dragged him out of the classroom and followed the prince's footsteps.

Professor Marius shook his head slightly at the principal, who showed a look of hopelessness, and walked out with a pale face.

[Dealed character design] Master Hal's character setting map

I'm sorry it took so long, so I'll update it.

I am also very troubled that I can't draw the face of Master Hal in my mind XD

Unimportant settings:

◆When Hal is angry, the uneven hairs on the back of his head (equivalent to the upright scales on the back of the neck of a dragon) will stand up (?

◆Long hair is almost equal to a dragon's tail, so when you relax, you will shake it according to your mood.

◆Like loose clothes

◆It is not afraid of the cold, so it is also worn in winter. (Hal in winter is very warm
