Lucien did not expect that he would run into such a thing. He had been focusing on his experiments and magic analysis. Except for Rock, Jerome, K, and a few other teachers in the office who he was familiar with, he had been quiet and attentive all the time. However, even though he had been keeping a low profile, someone still complained about him. Lucien was a bit upset and angry.
However, as a person who was used to striving for things, Lucien would never give up easily. After thinking for a while, he said sincerely, "Mr. President, I think that my way of teaching arcana and magic basics is very effective. The students of 'Thorn Tree' class and 'Blood Bird' class have obviously grasped the ancient magic language, the language of hell, and the common knowledge of magic creatures. It's said that they have a good impression of me, too."
"I know." Donald's answer was short and powerful, which was out of Lucien's expectation again. Did he just admit that his teaching method was effective?
Donald then changed the topic, "But Lucien, didn't you read the school rules? Apprentices should have absolute respect for their teachers and the order in the classroom, and their teachers should also show enough dignity. However, your teaching style encourages the apprentices to disrespect their teachers and the order in the classroom, which is a serious violation of the school rules and traditions. "
"Many methods may be effective, but the premise is to break the rules. This is something that we will not allow. For example, a magic item. Whether one obtains it by completing a quest or snatching it from the hands of a weakling, the difficulty level of the two is different. Which one should we encourage and teach the apprentices to choose?"
"Lucien, I hope you can reflect on yourself and figure out the truth."
Lucien was speechless. Even if he suggested that the apprentices should be punished based on the results of the three courses, Mr. Donald would definitely not accept it. What Mr. Donald cared about was not whether the apprentices were good or bad, but the strict social order between the apprentices and the sorcerers from the ancient Magic Empire. Although the apprentices were old-fashioned, they were indeed in line with the situation in this world. Therefore, the reason why the apprentices could rise infinitely was undeniable.
Seeing that Lucien did not say anything, Donald thought that Lucien understood the seriousness of the matter. So he smiled and encouraged him, "Lucien, I know that young people are always full of ideas. Some of them are good and some are bad. For example, I appreciate your idea of increasing practice on the test questions. I've decided to promote it in the whole school."
Lucien rubbed his temples and felt that he was going to be cursed by the apprentices. Lucien felt that he was going to be cursed by the apprentices. Lucien did not want to be cursed, even if he could only practice every day and test once a week.
…
After leaving Donald's office, Rock, who seemed to have heard something, patted Lucien's shoulder to comfort him. asked, "How's it going?"
"Lucien," said Lucien, "I'll be suspended for one month, and I'll have the right to use of the magic lab and the library...." Lucien did not really care about the suspension, as he could still focus on consolidating his power after advancing to the second circle. However, losing half of his salary was really painful.
"It's all Beate's fault." Rock cursed in a low voice, "Those narrow-minded bastards from the Electromagnetics Department did this. They also taught the Thorn Tree class and the Blood Bird class, and they were compared to you by the other apprentices. They thought that Beate's Electromagnetics was too old-fashioned and boring. Later, some of the apprentices secretly told them about you. They thought that you were a bad influence, and they seriously violated the school rules. Therefore, they complained to the principal about you. If I ever get the chance, I'll never let them go! "
"So that's how it is." Lucien finally understood the origin of his' unexpected calamity '. Everything new was always rejected by the old order, no matter whether it was good or bad. At the same time, Lucien also felt that it was ridiculous. "Those guys are really annoying. Just because my name is X and my nickname is Professor, I'm going to be hated by the Electromagnetics Department? I didn't expect that Beate would do something like this. "
Beate's black hair and black eyes appeared in Lucien's mind. However, the fact that he was able to enter the Douglas Magic School meant that he was quite good in the field of Electromagnetics. Currently, he was a level one arcanist and a second circle sorcerer.
Rock and Lucien were walking side by side on the stairs of the magic tower. Rock said to Lucien in a half-serious and half-joking way, "Lucien, you're the coolest and most interesting teacher among all the apprentices. Even though they hate the exercises you gave them every day, you're still more popular than me. However, how can you say something like, 'You don't need to listen to me in class, and you don't need to practice, as long as you can pass the final test'? Even if you're really doing it, you shouldn't say it out loud. Their complaints were successful because of what you said, not because of your humorous teaching. "
"Thank you, Rock. I understand." Lucien nodded slightly. His words had caused a lot of trouble.
Rock stopped being serious and said to Lucien with a bit of anger, "In fact, the rules and traditions are all decided by the big figures. If you're a grand arcanist, Lucien, even if you say something like this and teach in this style, do you think they'll still dare to complain? Do you think they'll dare to criticize you for violating the school rules and traditions? I'm afraid that they will praise Mr. Lucien loudly for his open-mindedness and humor. Lucien is a great role model for us to learn from. "
"Haha, Rock, you're funny, but you do have a point." Lucien laughed.
…
When it was time for lunch, Jerome, K, Vilnia, and other magic teachers all came to the garden villa to comfort Lucien and have lunch with him.
As soon as lunch was over, Annick, Layria, and Heidi also hurried to Lucien's place.
To Lucien's surprise, Sprint and Katrina were also with them. Grant, the monitor, and a quiet, pretty girl that Lucien didn't know. She was about eighteen years old, and her hair was green like seaweed.
"Mr. Evans …" Annick, Heidi, and Layria wanted to comfort Lucien, but they didn't know what to say. After a while, they all said together, "We'll always support you!"
Sprint lowered his head, and his dark red hair swayed slightly. It seemed that he was nodding. Katrina and Grant also waved their fists like Annick, "Mr. Evans, we think your teaching is great. We'll always support you!"
After that, Grant murmured in a low voice, "It'll be better if you don't stay for practice every day."
"Thank you. I'll be back soon." Lucien didn't encourage them to fight for him, because in the traditional magic school, if they did, they would definitely be expelled.
The prestige of the magic school and the official sorcerers also prevented them from having such thoughts. After chatting for a while, Heidi suddenly said, "Mr. Evans, we're from the other side of the Storm Strait, and we're still far behind the apprentices here in terms of arcana and magic basics. It's quite difficult for us to learn and analyze magic every day. I feel that we can't catch up with them. As it happens, you have a month of free time. Can you spare some time to teach us? "
"We won't let you teach us for free, Mr. Evans. The small things that we made in the alchemy class were taken back by the school, and we earned some Nar!" Layria added childishly.
"Spare some time for tutoring? Arcana tutoring class? "Lucien felt that it was ridiculous.
Annick, Heidi, Layria, and Katrina nodded seriously, "Yes. Mr. Evans, please help us."
Before Lucien answered, K smiled and said, "Lucien, I admire them for being able to find their own shortcomings and having the courage to look for opportunities. If you have time, why don't you help them? If I have time, I'll teach them too. "
"Alright. I have to do experiments every night, and you have classes and practice spells during the day. Let's make it Saturday afternoon. Also, I'm not shameless enough to ask you kids for money. The best reward is that you can become official sorcerers! " After receiving K's help, Lucien also wanted to do something to give back to the society. After all, he had a lot of free time this month.
Lucien thought to himself, "But is the arcana tutoring class really giving back to the society?" Then he asked, "Who's coming?"
"Me, me." Heidi raised her hand. Layria and Annick also nodded excitedly.
Katrina blushed, but she still looked straight into Lucien's eyes, "Mr. Evans, I'm coming too."
"Me too …" Sprint's voice was very weak. Lucien could see that his face and ears were all red.
Grant shook his head and smiled embarrassedly, "Mr. Evans, I think I can still keep up with the others …" He had always been the leader.
The other girl, who was pretty and quiet, kept glancing at Heidi eagerly.
Heidi nodded and said, "Mr. Evans, this is Chelly from Seagull, my roommate and Layria's roommate. She's just learned how to meditate, so she can't understand most of the lessons. "
"Chelly?" Lucien looked at the girl in surprise. Based on the color of her hair, was she the Miss Chelly he met on the sailboat? If so … Then the relationship between Viscount Wright and the Congress of Magic was intriguing.
Chelly understood why Lucien was so surprised. She nodded slightly, "Yes."
She was quiet and did not say anything.
Lucien rubbed his forehead and thought to himself, "An apprentice and a squire of a Knight for Sylvia. What a perfect couple. Let's hope they can have a happy ending."
When Lucien nodded to Chelly's request, Rock, who went out after lunch, ran back to Lucien excitedly, "Lucien, Lucien, your arcana paper was cited by the grand arcanist! The first paper on Magic! "
All the teachers in the living room stood up. Grant, who knew the importance of Magic and the lofty status of grand arcanists, also stared at Lucien with his eyes wide open. Mr. Evans' paper had been cited by a grand arcanist?! Lucien was not even an official arcanist yet!
Lucien was also surprised. His paper had just been published on Common Arcana. How could it be cited so quickly?
"Lucien, take a look. This is the first paper!" Rock handed the open journal to Lucien.
Lucien took it over and read it. The title was Discussion on the Application of Electromagnetic Waves in Magic. The author was Fernando Balista, grand arcanist, level three legendary class, Lord of Storm.
In the beginning of his paper, which did not conform to the format at all, it was written, "My student, Thompson, is a member of the Affairs Committee. When he was reviewing an application, he found a very interesting paper. A sorcerer who had not reached the level of an official arcanist proved that high-frequency sound waves could be used to locate objects through a simple and rigorous bat experiment. After I read the paper, I was inspired. We can't limit our magic to pure electricity or pure magnetism. Electromagnetic waves should also have magical effects. "
"High frequency sound waves have the ability to locate and probe. What about high frequency electromagnetic waves? What about low-frequency electromagnetic waves? "
"They are both waves. Sound waves can transmit sound information, but what about electromagnetic waves?"
"Let's discuss it with magic experiments."
Lucien's jaw dropped a bit. This grand arcanist was way too imaginative. Lucien had already thought of so many applications that he could use to cheat credits in the future!
Lucien felt that a prosperous future of electromagnetic wave applications was unfolding right in front of his eyes.
However, Lucien suddenly became vigilant. Since his name was mentioned in the paper by a grand arcanist, did it mean that more sorcerers would be curious about him? Would they care about his name and the reason why he had not reached the level of an official arcanist? (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
