This wizard only wants to take students

Chapter 2 Enrolment Planning

‘In the wizarding world, strength is honored and knowledge is paramount.’ In the library of Greybone Academy, Lucien closed the book in his hand while in his heart, he silently lamented.

This was the third day that he had traveled to the wizard world.

Combining the original owner’s memories and some of the information he had inquired about in the library over the past few days, he had a rough understanding of the Sorcerer World and the sorcerer organization he was in nowadays.

Sorcerers, to put it simply, were a group of scholars who used knowledge as a crowbar to pry the rules in order to gain power.

Rational and cold-blooded, wise but crazy.

The relationship between sorcerers was even more distant and cruel than the world before Lucian traveled through, and it was almost like the law of the jungle of the weak and the strong was interpreted to the fullest.

If you wanted to protect yourself, then you could only become stronger!

‘From a certain point of view, this system of mine is quite suitable for the wizard world. After all, ‘exchanging’ already mastered knowledge for more advanced knowledge is very cost-effective for sorcerers.’

‘For wizards, knowledge is power, a lever to pry the rules, the most core competitiveness between wizards.’

There was a glint in Lucian’s eyes, but the glint quickly dimmed.

‘It’s just a pity that before binding students, the system’s help to me is negligible. And in order to bind a student, the student must still be willing from the bottom of his heart.’

Lucien couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

These days, it wasn’t that he hadn’t thought about looking for the system’s ‘backdoor’, trying to find a way to bypass the rigid condition of binding the student, but all his attempts ended in failure.

I’m worried.

Lucien took a deep breath and then let it out gently.

If it was an ordinary situation, Lucien’s desire to improve his strength wasn’t particularly strong, after all, as long as he survived the toughest period in front of him, in the future, when his strength was restored, it would still be relatively easy to find a student.

However, the current situation is a bit special.

His mentor, the official sorcerer Pinol, had died. This also meant that his biggest backstage in the academy was gone.

According to the rules, a third-level sorcerer apprentice would be assigned a mandatory mission every three years, and Lucian’s next mission was already less than a year away.

By then, without their shelter backstage, Lucian would easily be sent on the most dangerous missions by the official sorcerers who arranged the mandatory missions.

According to the original owner’s memories, at that level of mandatory mission, the mortality rate of an average third-level sorcerer apprentice was over 50%.

And Lucien? The situation was even worse.

One must know that in order to suppress his injuries, the original owner had sold those witch tools he used in battle as well as some resources that he couldn’t use for the time being early on, replacing them with potions and magic stones.

At this time, although the injury has been suppressed, the potions and magic stones have also been consumed almost, on the body in addition to the sorcerer’s robe, and almost no other combat witch tools. Compared to his heyday, his combat strength can be said to be one out of ten.

If his combat strength could not be raised before this, when he met the mandatory quest, he could expect whether or not there would be a next time to cross over.

Therefore, he had to recover his strength as much as possible before the mandatory quests were amortized.

But in the situation where magic stones were scarce and his accumulation was depleted, the only key Lucian could think of to break the situation was his own system.

Only the system, which could provide him with knowledge or other help in a short period of time, could make it possible for his strength, to be able to gain a step increase in a short period of time.

Therefore, right now, Lucien is in dire need of a student!

Of course, Lucien also considered himself to be a good tutor. And belonged to the category of quality tutors that were hard to find in the Wizard World.

After all, in the sorcerer’s world, there is no such thing as a mentor/apprentice relationship, and mentors and students use each other more than anything else.

In most cases, the mentor was playing the role of an exploiter, using limited knowledge and providing shelter to squeeze benefits from the student.

Even some black-hearted mentors would take advantage of contractual loopholes or information gaps in knowledge to lead students astray by means of misdirection, partial concealment, and innuendo, causing them to fall into the mentor’s experimental body without knowing it.

Lucien, on the other hand, was different, he taught students, that is, he taught students for the sake of teaching them, absolutely serious, responsible, patient, and attentive kind.

But without students, everything was for nothing.

What’s more, the apprentices in Lucian’s Grey Bone Academy had more or less gone through the cruelty of the wizard world, and even if Lucien told them that he was better than the other tutors, they probably wouldn’t believe him, and would even think that Lucian was holding some kind of ulterior evil purpose.

It was unlikely that they would be sincere in worshipping the tutor, and they wouldn’t be able to satisfy the system’s most basic conditions, so it would be a waste to accept them.

‘So, to acquire students, for me, there are only three ways.’ Lucien slightly raised his head and looked towards the somewhat gloomy night sky outside the window.

The first was to first select an ordinary person with no sorcerer talent for the transition. Although they don’t have the possibility to become a sorcerer, learning the most basic knowledge should be no problem, and can help me transition through the toughest period right now.

Only, this way, a hundred percent waste a bound student’s quota, and even …… may lead to the future system not being able to be used.

Lucien frowned slightly, this solution was the easiest solution he had thought of so far, but the drawbacks were great, and it was not too much to say that it was killing the chicken to get the eggs.

The second was to go and buy sorcerer apprentice-level slaves! Those slaves whose souls were implanted with enslavement runes could be said to be loyal to their souls, and worshipping a master or anything else would not be a problem.

However, the downside was the high price! The weakest first-level Sorcerer Apprentice slave requires thirty magic stones …… All the assets I have in my hands right now are converted to a hundred magic stones, thirty magic stones to buy a Sorcerer Apprentice-level slave, the burden is too great.

The second option, Lucien is also a bit dissatisfied, after all, those enslaved apprentices, most of the qualifications are not good, and the sorcerer who purchased them, most of them are for an obedient and submissive precious experiments will bite the bullet to buy.

Buying slaves to use for teaching? This was a bit too outrageous. What’s more, Lucian didn’t have many magic stones left in the first place.

And the last resort was to hit on the Sorcerer’s new blood.

New blood, a blank sheet of paper is better to draw, and easier to fool …… Ah no, it is easier to guide and teach.

Even more coincidentally, the airships that the academy recruited new blood this year, if there is no accident, are already on their way back at this time.

At most a week later, they would arrive at Greybone Academy. Either in the future, they would become an amazing sorcerer, or in the future, they would become part of the natural cycle of the Greybone Forest.

The only problem was how one should recruit a student, a good student, from the new blood.

To be fair, at this stage, one’s competitiveness was not as good as other third-level sorcerer apprentices, let alone competing with full-fledged sorcerers. If those new bloods were allowed to choose freely, he would not necessarily be able to receive a student.

However, since the conventional means didn’t work or the competitiveness was too low, Lucien naturally had some other thoughts.
