Exam
Chapter 274:Exam
After dinner, the candlelight entered the castle hall early.
Whenever night falls, the book teacher will open a lecture in the hall, and unlike the noble colleges in the big city, the students who come here to listen are the witches who help the meeting.
But she wasn’t the first to arrive at the “classroom,” and Evelyn had already sat at the long table and waved to her.
“Has His Royal Highness told you recently?”As soon as the candlelight sat down, Evelyn asked impatiently.
I remember when she came, she also called each other the lord.The candlelight secretly smiled in the bottom of his heart, "Yes, he let me exercise my ability to some strange metal bumps, so that they solidified at room temperature, and I don't know what the use is."
"Yes, so," she said, looking at her, "Your Highness has not yet allowed me to do anything."
“Isn’t the exercise also regulated?”The candle is strange.
"No, I practice it myself," said Evelyn, shaking her head, "and he will only occasionally ask me to taste the newly formulated liquor."
"Perhaps this is what your Highness is in your eyes, you have been in the tavern, and you are very familiar with the taste of all kinds of drinks."There are not many witches like that.”
“You don’t need a witch to taste wine at all,” she protested, “a golden dragon is enough to recruit a special winemaker.”
"Er ..." the candle patted each other on the shoulder, "I think your Highness must have his intention."
"The book is so comforting to me, but even I don't know what this ability can do, and I can't turn water into wine out of thin air... Is it the best wine to sell?"But the common people could only afford inferior wheat, and the tastes of the nobility varied.”Evelyn put her chin on the table and said, “More and more... it is harder and harder to drink, and I have suggested to him that water or juice be reconciled, but he seems to want only to make the strongest wine.”
The candlelight did not know what to say, and at this point she and Evelyn could be called the same disease.After heading to Sleeping Island, they spend most of their time doing chores – as fish oil resources become more abundant, solidified candles become dispensable, and drinking alcohol is a forbidden behavior of adults.
When the early life is tense, the material is often distributed according to the ability, and the candlelight can sometimes only be divided into one roasted fish without salt a day.She did not feel that there was any problem with this practice, and was willing to give more food to the witches who were greatly consumed by magic, but the groups and vague feelings of exclusion of the witches were a little uncomfortable to her.Fortunately, Mr. Tiley took care of them, apologized for this distribution method, and promised to adjust after the abundance of materials, so that the witches did not show the exclusion too obvious.
But in the border town, this is almost never the case - the witches are sitting at the same table, enjoying the meal with His Royal Highness, wearing and using it... The most important thing is that they regard each other as a whole, whether they are powerful or not, which can be seen from the daily life.Although she has only been in the border town for two weeks, she has deeply felt this.
They really see each other as their sisters.
This makes the candle very envious.
When all the witches continue to sit back, the book teacher came in with a stack of white paper, "today do not teach new content, I will conduct a comprehensive test of what you have learned."
“What is that?”The lightning first raised its hand.
“The cooing?”Macy followed closely behind.
“You have been studying for three months now, and your Highness believes that it is necessary to test your learning results.”The book laughs, “All the questions are listed on these papers, divided into three parts: Kingdom, mathematics, and nature, with a total of sixty questions, the answer to the plus points, the wrong subtraction ... Of course, if you do not understand the problem, you cannot raise your hand to ask the question.”I believe that you have mastered the writing of the text at first, or you will not be able to answer it even if you knew the answer."She paused, “By the way, Your Highness said that only more than half of the people who answered correctly could enjoy the weekend afternoon ice cream dessert, and if the score was below this limit, the afternoon tea qualification would be disqualified.”
The candlelight heard it coming from behind, and looking back, I saw a stunned look at the nightingale, and the charcoal pen that fell to the ground was broken into two.
“In addition, His Highness also explained that the five witches from the sleeping island are not among them, so you can stay and answer them together, or you can take a day off,” the book said to Candlestick and Evelyn, and others, “no matter what the score is, you can enjoy delicious afternoon tea.”
"Hour," Evelyn patted herself on the chest and whispered, "I don't recognize the words, and I don't think ice cream is there anymore."
Honey and lotus were very happy to get up and salute the book and leave the hall.
In addition to some physical discomfort, the original did not come to Hilvi, the sleeping island witch only her and Evelyn.
“Do you want to stay?”The candle asked in a low voice.
"I want to try," said the other, nod, "Didn't Her Highness Roland say that knowledge can make the ability to evolve?"If I don't work harder in this area, I'm afraid I'll never compare them to them."She smiled a cunning smile, "These days I have been practicing words in the room after class, and Lily and Mystery Moon will teach me some of the usual words to read and write."
When she mentioned this, the frustration in her tone suddenly dispersed a lot, and her eyes became shiny, which made the candlestick lift the corner of her mouth.
"Yes, I'll try it too."
...
“Your Highness, this test result is out,” the book roll handed Roland a summary table.
"Hard work," the recent discovery of the North Slope mining area makes him puzzled, even the daily work is difficult to concentrate, simply first move the attention to the easier things, "oh, the nightingale's achievements are actually qualified?" 」
"Yes, and the score is still at the forefront, and the royal language part is full," said the scroll with a smile, "after all, most of the questions you give are very superficial, and she already knows how to read and write, and it is naturally much better than the witch who learned from her beginning."
"ShhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhWhen he heard nothing, he felt his shoulder choked hard."In short, the result looks good, and all the members of the Witch's League are over sixty, and it seems that your education has been fruitful."
“It also has nothing to do with their efforts.”
Roland looked down, “Are only two of the witches of Sleeping Island taking the test?”
"Well, of course, Evelyn is five cents, and the candlelight is thirty-six, and the latter should have a certain basis, and the score is mostly from the royal language."She answered.
After two weeks of classes, he can already take points from the assessment part of the text, and the individual qualities of the witch are indeed amazing, and the inner and outer have been continuously improved by magic.Their own witches are equally excellent, such as Lily, Hummingbird, Mystery Moon, and others in just three months to basically master the text and read and write, which alone surpasses most ordinary people.
If the people can completely put aside prejudice and work with the witches to promote the development of society and civilization, what kind of vision will it be in the future?Roland was full of expectation.(Unfinished.)
