Chapter 175: Getting a Chance
It was such a simple word, but Claude already understood what it meant.
He smiled. “You don’t have to apologize to me. I was just making a suggestion. It’s up to you whether you choose to accept it or not.”
Audrey nodded. She felt that the old man in front of her was much closer than she had imagined. After all, when she first heard the conversation between him and Harilanca, she had thought that the other party was a difficult person to get along with.
Perhaps it was rare for the two of them to find a good friend in magic, so they chatted for a long time. In the end, Claude’s mood clearly improved a lot.
“If I had known that you were such an interesting person, I would have gotten to know you earlier. I wouldn’t have come to this place.” Claude laughed loudly.
Audrey smiled politely. “I would also like to get to know you. You are a very knowledgeable senior.”
Claude was delighted by her words. “I see that you have been flipping through some of the more difficult books recently. If you want, you can use them. However, these might be too difficult for you. If you don’t mind, you can wait for me for two days. I’ll think about whether there are any simple and suitable secret manuals for you.”
“No, that’s fine,” Audrey said.
Claude suddenly understood. From their conversation just now, he could tell that Audrey was not like what he had imagined. She was not a novice who did not know anything at all, her attainments in magic might be even more unfathomable than what he had judged.
A moment later, Claude lowered his head and laughed out loud.
“Hahahaha… It seems that our magic faculty finally has a successor.”
…
It had to be said that ever since she got to know Claude, the books in Audrey’s hands were indeed more useful than before.
Especially the information on spiritual power. Although they had this kind of knowledge in their previous lives and had received systematic education, that kind of knowledge was very mechanically organized.
The content of the book was written by Claude himself. As the last magister of the Templar Knights, he naturally understood magic very well. However, because there was no successor… he could only place all his knowledge on a thick piece of leather paper.
Claude had originally thought that this knowledge would accompany him into a long and eternal slumber. However, he didn’t expect that Hope would still appear. It was precisely because of this that Claude chose to spare no effort to give everything he had to Audrey.
It was as though he was treating Audrey as his successor.
Thus, every time school ended, Ross would see Audrey holding a bunch of ancient-looking books in her hands.
“Audrey, what are these in your hands? And where did you go after school? The few of us wanted to go out to play, but we couldn’t find you anywhere.”Ross looked at Audrey with her head propped up.
Audrey sat quietly in her seat and flipped through the ancient book. “I went to find a senior to study.”
Only then did Ross come to a realization and let out a long sigh.
Barbara, who was beside her, smiled and said, “Look at her. It’s one thing for Audrey to work hard in cla.s.s, but she even worked so hard after cla.s.s. This is a true example of an excellent .”
Ross was a little unconvinced as she snorted. “I worked very hard in cla.s.s too, alright? It’s just that you didn’t see it. I even managed to deal with the Dragon’s Breath Gra.s.s successfully today.”
“Which one are you talking about? If I remember correctly, you dealt with five Dragon’s Breath Gra.s.s,” Barbara teased.
Ross quickly defended herself. “No, I just took more. If I work hard, I can actually succeed…”
As the two of them chatted, a sentence suddenly came up.
“By the way, Audrey, the cla.s.s placement test is about to begin. You can use this opportunity to enter the advanced cla.s.s. When you receive your education, it’ll probably be much better than here.”
Audrey looked up. “What’s the cla.s.s placement test?”
Ross looked at Audrey in puzzlement. “Someone told me about it in cla.s.s today. Didn’t you hear?”
Audrey pondered for a moment and realized that she really could not find this matter in her memory.
It was mainly because she had too many things to do recently that her brain had not been enough. As a result, she had been in a fugue state during cla.s.s, thinking about how to study magic and improve her spiritual power.
So the cla.s.s-dividing test was about to arrive?
Audrey raised her hand and closed the book. It seemed like it was time for her to take it seriously.
Therefore, after preparing for the battle for a week, everyone was gathered early in the morning. The cla.s.s-dividing test of the Templar Knights, which was held once every ten years, began just like that.
Ever since Ross was dragged out of bed, her face had turned extremely ugly. She looked as if she had not woken up, and she had already been dragged to the square.
“Haha… why do you have to wake up so early, and it’s so lively? Oh my G.o.d, why are the seniors here?” Ross rubbed her eyes, trying to see her surroundings clearly.
