“Alright, alright!”
After a while, Margaret interrupted Matthew.
‘ I can tell that you don’t have much talent, but you work hard enough. As long as you remember this feeling and go back to practice it repeatedly, you’ll have a chance to master the basic practice method of Soria’s chanting.
If you want to truly get started, you need to persevere and keep practising. There are no shortcuts in the world of magic. Many places that you think are shortcuts are often traps. And in the process of practice, the most important thing is still the standard way of speaking. If you accidentally forget it, you will need additional lessons to learn it again. Do you understand what I mean?” Matthew nodded.
Margaret wanted him to pay more.
“That’s all for today’s class.”
Margaret magically took out a small jar and placed it on Matthew’s table.
“Say something now.”
Matthew opened his mouth.
“No, my voice…”
He suddenly realized that his voice was extremely hoarse!
” This is a normal phenomenon. Practising Soria’s chanting technique will wear out your vocal cords in the early stages. This is because you haven’t fully mastered the chest breathing technique. Once you master the essence of it, it will be much better.
” Therefore, in the early stages of training, you will need the assistance of some magic potions. For example, the lozenges that I made myself. Just one lozenge will restore your throat to its original state. You can eat up to twelve lozenges a day, but in theory, I only recommend you eat two lozenges a day. There are sixty lozenges in this jar, enough for you to practice for a month. “Teacher and student price, 100 gold coins. Do you want to buy it?”
Matthew immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
Margaret did not ask for too much, which was beyond Matthew’s expectations. However, after thinking about it carefully, she did not seem to have the talent to make money.
“I’ll give you 300 gold coins.”
Matthew decided to show his goodwill.
The other 200 gold coins would be used to deepen his friendship with Margaret.
Who knew that Margaret would actually jump up and strongly reject,
“You want to buy three bottles at once? I rubbed these lozenges with my hands one by one. Do you know how much trouble it is to make one? I’ll only take 100 gold coins, and I’ll only sell you one bottle! Quickly put away the rest of the money!
“When you finish this bottle, come and buy another bottle from me.”
Matthew was speechless.
He swallowed a lozenge, and the cool taste brushed across his throat. It was as if a small hand was gently scratching his throat. It felt itchy, but it was indescribably pleasant.
He took a candy.
Matthew’s voice returned to normal.
“Show me the homework from last time.” Margaret urged.
Matthew obediently took out his homework.
The previous topic was-
If you were this black-robed Mage and knew that the enemy was skilled in True Transformation and could turn into mosquitoes and fleas, how would you deal with them?
Matthew’s answer was only a few words.
Hide in the water.
Margaret was a little displeased. “Can your answer be any more perfunctory?”
Matthew said honestly, “But hiding in the water can indeed solve the problem. Mosquitoes and fleas can only stay on the surface of the water for a while at most. Even if they can enter the water, it will be difficult for them to get into my body in the water.”
Margaret asked, “What if they’re waiting for you on the shore?”
Matthew said,
” I have the Underwater Breathing Potion. As long as the enemy enters the water, I can launch a counterattack at any time.” Margaret asked,
” What if there are no rivers or lakes nearby?”
Matthew had already considered this question.
“Water Manipulation Spell, this is a very simple spell. It can be used to protect my lower body. The only negative effect is that it will make my crotch wet and look a little indecent, but you also said that there is no such thing as dignity in battle. So I think it’s acceptable.
” As for the face, you can refer to the mage who died in your hands. The bubble spell is a very good solution.”
Margaret widened her eyes. So, was my battle style easily broken by you?”
Matthew thought for a moment.
“If I hadn’t known about your move beforehand, I’m afraid I would have ended up the same as the black-robed mage. For most people, they would never think of such a… different method.’
“Alright, alright. I’ll consider it as you barely passed.”
Margaret crossed her arms in front of her chest, looking like an old woman.
“But you have to understand that the Water Manipulation and Bubble Spells have a time limit, and my harassment is endless. The most important thing is that once I master True Transformation, the initiative will always be in my hands.”
Matthew nodded.
“You’re right. I’m also interested in practising True Transformation.”
Margaret seemed to be in a good mood.
“You have a good eye, but the secret of True Transformation can only be taught to you in practical class.
“But then again, you passed this homework. You definitely didn’t pass last time!
Regarding how to make money, you have to hand in another assignment to me, and you have to tailor the content to my situation.”
Margaret’s thoughts were clear.
Matthew smiled bitterly.
“I don’t know your situation. How can I customize it?”
Margaret looked unreasonable.
“I don’t care!
” You’re Isabelle’s student, and she’s the most profitable woman in the Alliance. Her student, Ronan, is also one of the most profitable men in the Alliance. I don’t believe you can’t give a perfect answer..”
