Chapter 75: Practice


    After entering summer, the air had be increasingly hot.


    The bright spring sun disappeared and was reced by a slightly scorching sun. The brick floor became a little hot due to the hot sunlight. In the square, the students hurriedly walked in heavy mage robes. Although it blocked the sun and prevented these adolescent girls from being tanned, it was also slightly sultry at the same time.


    The magic energy of the apprentices could not support the operation of the mage robes that had the function of regting temperature, and it was expensive to reduce the scale of the temperature control circle to the apprentice level. At least in Luna Nova Magical Academy, the students still had to endure the summer heat.


    ording to observations from the Rainbow Tower, this summer may be the hottest in the past ten years. In some areas in the southern part of the maind, high-temperature orange warnings had been issued consecutively. Many mages had rushed to various ces to fight for the continuous drought and high temperature.


    In a corner of the square, under the shade of the trees, three people were standing there.


    One of them was naturally Dana. In this sultry summer, a cold sweat broke out on her forehead.


    She was wearing a robe with the Luna Nova Magical Academy logo, but the cuffs and neckline had been re-sewn. Dana didn''t want to spend more money to buy an extra robe, so she learned tailoring herself and helped her ssmates mend their clothes from time to time.


    Standing in front of her were Reiner and ire.


    ire was also wearing a gray robe. In her words, this was to maintain the majesty of being a professor. Although ire was now flushed and some strands of hair were stuck to her face with sweat, she still had not put on the light and breathable clothes.


    Although ire was already the first-ring mage, and her magic could support the kind of robe that was warm in winter and cool in summer, she was very poor. In order to reduce school expenses, ire''s own monthly sry was only five silver coins, so she couldn''t afford that kind of advanced robe.


    Reiner didn''t bother with the so-called image. He only wore a light shirt and trousers. Standing under the shade of the tree, he didn''t feel the heat. However, looking at ire, who was sweating profusely, he could not help suggesting,


    "ire, do you want to go back and change your clothes? The skirt you worest time was pretty good."


    "I! Do not! Want to!"


    ire said stubbornly. It was as if she was a mage and a professor only when she was in a mage robe.


    "Well then, we will end this as soon as possible."


    Reiner shrugged helplessly, and at the same time, he couldn''t help but think that he, as the principal, could probably change the school uniforms. At least so that these young girls in the academy could wear beautiful little skirts instead of such old-fashioned robes.


    At least it would look more pleasing to the eye!


    Recording this thought on a notebook in his head, Reiner then looked at Dana.


    "Miss Dana, I''ll leave it to you next."


    "Mhm."


    Dana nodded, then took two steps back, facing the empty ce, and took a deep breath.


    The spell model in her mind was spinning, and she was suddenly in a daze, as if she heard her parents'' scolding.


    "You blocked my notes." "What are you happy about? This kind of trick is not magic at all!"


    This scolding quickly upied Dana''s mind and spread to the spell model.


    Only a loud noise was heard, and the magic that had nowhere to go formed a huge storm. The air waspressed and then cast out from Dana''s fingertips.


    ire couldn''t help backing up, covering her face with her hand. She vaguely felt that Reiner was standing in front of her, but the huge boom made people unable to think.


    Reiner''s hair and clothes were disheveled by the wind, but instead of avoiding it, he faced the explosion caused by Dana''s failed spell.


    The explosion expanded for nearly ten meters before it subsided, causing a shallow crater to appear on thewn. The soil was blown off and fell one after another, and a smell of mud filled the air.


    Dana''s pointed hat went missing, her long xen hair was messy, and she herself stood in ce, with thousands of thoughts intertwined in her mind.


    ''I had worked so hard, and I have worked so much, why I still fail!  ''


    Dana didn''t dare to look back at Reiner. She felt that she had failed the other party''s expectations, just as she had failed her parents'' expectations.


    She was afraid, afraid to see the disappointed look in his eyes.


    Dana felt Reiner walking towards her. She turned her face slightly and saw the principal raise her hand. She instinctively wanted to close her eyes, thinking that Reiner was going to reprimand her.


    But the next second, a warm hand gently stroked Dana''s head.


    "It''s okay. Failure is the mother of sess. Even high-level mages can also fail to cast spells. Don''t worry, rx and let us try again."


    Dana opened her eyes when she heard Reiner''s gentle words. She saw that Reiner was looking at her with a gentle expression, with no expected disappointment in his eyes.


    "But I......"


    "It''s okay, believe in yourself, and believe in us."


    Reiner''s words made Dana fall into deep thinking, her whole body trembling. She nodded slowly, turned around, and started casting the spell for the second time.


    Closing her eyes, Dana''s mind was thinking about the construction of the spell.


    The first step was to build a model.


    Spots of light appeared in the consciousness one by one, these light spots flickered like stars, from which countless silver threads appeared.


    These silver threads turned into bright and dazzling tracks, gradually forming familiar patterns.


    Due to the past days of mathematics training, Dana was already very familiar with the calction of coordinates. She was careful and did not make the serious mistakes that she made in the past. The whole model was simple and elegant, full of harmonious beauty.


    The second step was to inject magic energy.


    Dana slowly injected her magic energy into the spell model. For her, her excessivelyrge magic energy reserve became a burden. She had to carefully control her magic energy to make it flow out slowly, so it would not destroy the spell model in consciousnesspletely like a flood.


    The spell nodes gradually lit up, and between the nodes, the trickles of magic energy filled the entire model.


    In the past, the spell model would copse at this point, causing an explosion.


    But at this time, Dana''s spell model was very stable. Although there was continuous turbulence caused by the overflow of magic energy, it was still firmly controlled by the spell model.


    The third step was to cast magic.


    Dana opened her eyes, a little light shed on her fingertip.


    It was a very faint light, undetectable under the scorching sun. If Dana were not in the shade of a tree, it would have been hidden by the sun.


    But the light did exist.


    Dana''s eyes widened, as if she didn''t believe that the light swaying from her fingertips came from her, but the magic energy flowing in her body was telling her that this was a fact.


    He did sessfully cast the illumination magic.


    Dana suppressed her excitement and kept maintaining the spell for about one minute until she cut off the supply of magic energy.


    The whole process went smoothly. It even made Dana think she was still in a dream.


    "Congrattions, Miss Dana."


    Reiner apuded. He patted Dana on the shoulder. He could clearly feel that the girl was still shaking with excitement.


    "You took the first step to be a mage."


    Dana felt her heart beating fast, excited, joy, longing, regret, many emotions mixed together.


    She looked into the distance, and suddenly, in a corner of the castle, Dana seemed to see her parents.


    The couple in robes seemed to be smiling at her. It was a soft expression that Dana had never seen before, but for some reason, the expression was clear and real, as if it wasing from memory.


    Dana''s nose twitched, and her eyes teared up
