Old Man Norton sighed and blew out a ring of smoke. "After you've officially learned magic, you may be able to collect money by exploring ruins and joining mercenary groups to do missions. But before that, you can either learn from you and get no more than three scholarships per year, personally sponsored by Court Archmage Medivh. Or you can show your talent at the exchange before school starts and join a noble family. After graduation, you can become a noble mage of that family and receive full financial support from that family during the semester. "
After a pause, the old man gave an example. "First of all, a copy of the Magic Academy's teaching materials for apprentices costs a gold coin. Of course, this is based on the premise that you're completely literate. Without teaching materials, you can't learn anything. In addition, you have to get spellcasting materials for practice. "
After the old man finished speaking, Darnielle and Itana's faces were completely pale.
Both of them were from commoner families, and before the exam, they had never thought that there would be so much trouble. What was the concept of a gold coin? Who knew how many years it would take for their family to gather this amount of money even if they didn't eat or drink? Now, for a moment of anger, they had accidentally forced themselves into a dead end.
Even if they thought with their toes, they would know that before the situation became clear, no noble family would dare to invest in them.
The tall Darnielle was slightly stubborn. In the face of trouble, he still pursed his lips and his waist was still straight.
But the slightly weak Itana was different. Her body unknowingly began to curl up a little, her hands tightly gripping the hem of her skirt above her knees. Her face was so sad that she looked like she was about to cry, and her eyes were red.
Seeing their reaction, old man Norton also sighed deeply.
Perhaps this was the situation where a copper coin stumped a hero.
At this time, Duque took out a booklet from his pocket. "Excuse me, can I lend this to Darnielle and Itana?"
"This is …" Old man Norton's eyes, which were a little cloudy just now, suddenly became clear. No, his eyes were even as bright as light bulbs. "Damn it! Where did you get the [High Elf Mage Apprentice Handbook]? "
"Uh, is it very noble?" Seeing the old man's reaction, Duque was a little dumbfounded.
"Nonsense! Human magic was taught by the High Elves. When it came to magic, the High Elves were the ancestors of humans. Don't underestimate this manual for beginners. There are so many old men in Dalajan who want to get their hands on an original copy, but they can't. " As he stared, Old Norton gasped. "Oh God of Magic, you're actually not a human, but a descendant of the High Elves, aren't you? No, you're the illegitimate son of the Sun King, right? "
As soon as the old man said this, Duque immediately felt four pairs of eyes staring at his face, making his face feel like it was on fire. Duque's face was also filled with confusion.
"How so?"
The old man flipped over the cover of the letter and pointed at a signature that looked like a scribble to Duque and the other two. "Do you know what's written here?"
The three little ones shook their heads in unison.
The old man waved his hands excitedly and roared in a tone that was close to a roar, "Kael 'thas Sunstrider! This is the apprentice handbook used by the current High Elf Prince, Kael 'thas! Damn it, anything from the Sunstrider Royal Family, even if it's an introductory handbook for a Mage Apprentice, is a high-grade item in the eyes of human official Mages! Tell me, Duque, where did you get this thing? If you don't handle it well, this thing will bring you great trouble. "
After the old man finished speaking, Duque was no longer afraid.
"Uh, this thing … there shouldn't be a problem with its origins. It was given to me by a passing, bored High Elf Ranger General of Cuel Salas. "
"I see." Old Norton and Darnielle were immediately relieved.
But at this moment, Duque suddenly heard a voice floating in the wind outside the window.
"Hmph!"
Damn it … Aurelia, how bored are you! You're actually following me?!
There was a dense forest on both sides of the road. To be honest, the speed of the carriage was not slow. It could be imagined that Aurelia could run faster than a carriage in the forest.
However, Aurelia did not express any obvious objection, which gave Duque a new idea.
"Respected Mage Norton, may I ask, if I give you a copy of this [Introductory Handbook for a High Elf Mage Apprentice], how many things can I exchange for, including two sets of [Stormwind City Magic Academy Apprentice Handbook]? Oh, about a month. After a month, I also hope to get a translation of the common language. "
Old Norton was stunned. From the two innocent and ecstatic faces beside him, the old man knew that Duque had succeeded.
Damn it, it was not a transfer, but just lending it to him once and he wanted to receive benefits. Not only that, he even caught him to be a translator!
This kid is very shrewd!
Alright, whether it was official or private, he could not cheat Duque.
"You win, kid." Old Norton shrugged helplessly. "You will get what you want. Since you are pleasing to the eye, I will give you 20% more than the market price. As for the specifics, I will slowly calculate it for you when we get there. "
The old man's promise made Du Ke see a golden thigh that was slowly rising to the top.
It took three days to get from Northshire Abbey to Stormwind City.
This was something that Duque only found out after he set off. Even though the geography of this world was basically the same as the world in the game, the geographical area was definitely magnified by who knew how many times.
That night, Duque was "attacked".
He woke up to a pain in his ear, and when he opened his eyes, he was almost scared to death. Because what he saw was not the top of the tent, but the inexplicable bright starry sky.
The next moment, he saw the familiar green inner armor of Mount Hyjal, and he was relieved.
The High Elves were a very sensitive race.
"You … how can you recognize people based on their breasts?" Aurelia cursed in a low voice.
"I'm only this tall!"
Right! Duque found out bitterly that although he had transmigrated, his body was still his, but perhaps because he was only 13 years old after transmigrating, his body had shrunk. As he had not yet started puberty, he looked over at Aurelia, and the position of her breasts was just right …
Aurelia gritted her teeth in anger, but she could not discuss such a useless topic with a child.
"Let me ask you, why did you lend the [High Elves Apprentice Handbook] that I gave you to that old man?"
So it was because of this. Duque had thought that Aurelia had come to question him for something so important.
Shrugging, Duque looked helpless. "Can't help it."
Aurelia thought about it, and it seemed to be the case. She put her hands on her hips and stared at Duque for a long time before her attitude finally softened.
"Alright, you pass."
"Then … you dragged me out in the middle of the night for this?"
"I came to say goodbye."
