After accepting the gifts from Serveyia’s friends, Lin Sheng began his first noble tea party.
To be honest, at first, he thought this so-called noble afternoon tea would be very formal, but how should he put it?
He didn’t expect the conversation topics to be so down-to-earth—discussing outfits from time to time, occasionally complaining about teachers—just like ordinary students.
“By the way, Princess, is there any class you’d like to audit?”
“Eh? M-me? I want to audit a Magic Class.”
Lin Sheng hadn’t expected the topic to turn to him.
He had just wanted to quietly drink some tea at the party and maybe eat another piece of cake.
He had to admit, the cakes were delicious—so delicious that they surpassed his imagination.
Being able to eat such a delicious cake might have been the luckiest thing for him these past few days.
“As for Magic Class, it should be Miss Lin Ya in charge, right?”
“Is Miss Lin Ya very famous?”
This was already the second time today Lin Sheng had heard this name.
For it to be mentioned so often among the young ladies, this person must have something special.
“How should I put it, Miss Lin Ya is probably the youngest genius in the field of supportive magic. If Princess wants to learn related magic, there’s probably no one more suitable than Miss Lin Ya. If Miss Lin Ya knew she could tutor the Princess one-on-one, she’d probably be thrilled.”
“Well, that seems a bit much, doesn’t it? I just wanted to audit, there’s no need to do so much just for me… A one-on-one lesson feels kind of wasteful…”
“Little Fox, you need to remember that you’re already the Princess of St. Laia. Don’t belittle yourself like this, okay?”
“But if I only audit one class, wouldn’t that disappoint Miss Lin Ya?”
To be honest, Lin Sheng didn’t know if he was just having a ten-minute interest, but still, if his fleeting curiosity troubled someone else, he would feel a bit guilty.
“That’s hard to say. But seeing how cute you are, Little Fox, maybe Miss Lin Ya wouldn’t get angry~ Besides, from past experience, Miss Lin Ya’s Magic introductory classes are pretty interesting, so it probably won’t be boring.”
“Plus, the magic affinity of a Nine-tailed Celestial Fox shouldn’t be low, so as long as you want to, it’s unlikely you wouldn’t be able to learn.”
But still, his interest in magic came more from unfamiliarity.
If he became familiar, would he still be so interested?
“By the way, Serveyia, can you show me some magic?”
Since the conversation had come to this point, Lin Sheng felt it was time to be curious about what magic actually looked like.
Although magic was already a common part of daily life, and also common in various films and television works, Lin Sheng had never seen it with his own eyes.
“I can, but I don’t think my magic would help you much in learning.”
“Ah, it’s not like I don’t know that. I’m just curious—curious about what magic looks like.”
“If it’s just that, then there’s no problem.”
Serveyia didn’t ask further, just looked at Lin Sheng uncertainly.
“Little Fox, whose magic do you want to see?”
“Eh? I can choose?”
“Of course. After all, each of us specializes in different magic fields. I’m better at Fire Magic, Xinas Nightshade specializes in Shadow Arts and Dream Arts, Aili is skilled in Nature Magic, Dora is better with Light Magic, and Fina handles Water Magic. So it depends on which type of magic you want to see.”
“What about Selene?”
Clearly, everyone’s name had been mentioned except for the centaur.
This uniqueness made Lin Sheng curious.
“Actually, it’s because I’m not very skilled in magic.”
This question was answered by Selene herself.
“Merfolk have always been strong in Martial Arts. I’m actually more skilled with archery. If there’s a chance, Princess, we can go to the training ground together. I’ll show you my Archery.”
“So not everyone can use magic?”
Hearing the young ladies discuss magic so casually, Lin Sheng had naturally assumed that every young lady could use magic.
“That’s not exactly it. Magic does have a hereditary aspect, but talent is also very important. As for magical talent, to be honest, everyone has it, but the level varies.”
“For some people, if their magical talent is low, there’s no need to force themselves to major in magic. Just understanding some principles for support is enough.”
Selene patiently explained to Lin Sheng, and as she spoke, she took out her phone and showed Lin Sheng a video of herself shooting arrows.
