After get off work, I started speedrunning through the other world

Magic Kingdom.

This is a landlocked country, famous for its research on "magic", and many well-known magicians have studied here.

And perhaps it is precisely because too many people have come here to learn magic that the operation of the Magic Kingdom is a little different.

Compared with normal countries, this place is more like a super-large organization brought together by different schools and schools.

"The prosperity here is not inferior to the Sky City."

Ximu opened the curtains and looked at the scenery outside the carriage. There were many magic shops on the street, selling all kinds of magic props.

And Yaslaqi in the car smiled when she heard it: "If you want to talk about money, the Sky City is richer."

"Does it mean that the land is valuable?" Ximu laughed, and then showed a surprised look, only to see a familiar figure waiting in front of the road.

She leaned against the street lamp, wearing a maid outfit.

"Here we are, this is the hotel we booked."

The carriage stopped, Yaslaqi walked out of the carriage, and took Ximu to the luxury hotel not far away.

The maid leaning against the street lamp waved happily after seeing Ximu and Yaslaqi:

"Boss, are you surprised that I'm here too?"

"Yes." Ximu nodded, looked at Zed in a maid outfit, and asked curiously, "Why are you wearing a maid outfit?"

"No way, who let them think I'm the boss's follower." Zed smiled helplessly, raised his hands slightly, and turned around in place.

"But do I look good in a maid outfit, boss?"

"... Looks good." Ximu was silent for a while, and responded with a slightly complicated voice, and Zed smiled when he heard it, and didn't care much about Ximu's words against his will.

She fiddled with the hair in front of her forehead.

"In fact, I also know that I'm not suitable for a maid outfit, but I don't seem to be suitable to be the boss's bodyguard. After all, my strength... is not enough."

Ximu thought about it and comforted: "It's a special charm?"

In fact, he didn't hate Zed wearing a maid outfit. A maid with wheat-colored skin, healthy and lively, showed a high charm.

However, it was a bit unexpected that he, Zedd, appeared here. He originally planned to throw Zedd into the Sky City and leave him alone.

Who would have thought that Zedd would appear here now.

"It seems that you are also very satisfied." Aslaqi lifted her red hair beside her ear and said with a smile:

"You are unfamiliar with the Magic Kingdom. Arranging Zedd to come and take care of you should make you feel better."

At this point, she added another sentence.

"And she is more flexible than you and is better at communicating with people."

"Wouldn't I become the boss's mouthpiece in this way?" Zedd frowned in distress and sighed a little unconfidently:

"I don't have the communication skills of Sister Leticia. The only people I can deal with are mercenaries or ordinary people."

It's not a lie. She is very self-aware of herself. She has been struggling at the bottom since she was a child, and her social experience is only applicable to ordinary people.

As for the social rules of the nobles, it can't be said that she understands them, and she knows almost nothing about them.

Yaslaqi held her forehead and smiled, "At least better than Akhtar. Do you know how he faced the invitation of the noble lady?"

"No!" Zed had a stern face, imitating Ximu's expression of rejecting the invitation of the noble lady, and then couldn't help laughing.

"Suddenly I feel a little confident again."

Ximu: "..."

He just didn't want to waste time on useless NPCs. If it was the invitation of the Witch of Death, he would change his attitude immediately.

Cruelly deceive the deeper power of death.

"Anyway, let's go in first." Yaslaqi pointed to the hotel and walked in with everyone. With her arrogant personality, it was unlikely that she would treat people so kindly.

However, Akhtar and Zed were companions who had fought against the dragon together, and Akhtar was dying.

Always soft-hearted when getting along.

If Akhtar had not been infected by the fire of Surtur, the future prospects would be bright, and he might even become her husband.

But now he is like a withered meteor.

"Why is there civil unrest in this country?" Zed suddenly asked on the way, "I didn't see any military conflict either?"

"It's not a military conflict, it's a conflict between the school and the royal family." Yaslaqi explained to Zed and Akhtar.

"There are many people who come to the Magic Kingdom to study. They have no loyalty to the Magic Kingdom, but they have a lot of feelings for the school that educated them. They are willing to help their alma mater and build a network of contacts."

"And it is also because of this reason that the royal family is increasingly helpless against the school that has trained many strong people, and the contradictions are becoming more and more acute."

"The source of the civil unrest is the royal family and the magic school."

Zed didn't know if he understood it, and asked again: "Why can the school confront the country? It feels strange?"

"Magicians are much stronger than the army, not to mention schools that specialize in training elite magicians." Yaslaqi explained with unexpected patience.

"The royal family is inherited by blood, and the magic school gathers talents from all over the world. They are not only outstanding in strength, but also have different countries and churches behind them."

"It is normal for the royal family to have its power compressed under such circumstances."

It's no lie. The schools in the Magic Kingdom are not only about the elite students who have become talented, but also involve all aspects. In addition to cultivating talents, they also have their own operating system.

Even if the royal family wants to strengthen its interference rights, the magic school can... move away, change the country, and rebuild the school.

And if all the schools in the Magic Kingdom are moved, then there needs to be a question mark as to whether the current Magic Kingdom can still be called the Magic Kingdom.

"Since the school is so strong." Geed thought for a moment and asked, "Why should the school take orders from the royal family instead of managing the country itself?"

"That's what they are doing now." Aslaki smiled slightly, "But there are many conflicts between the magic school and the magic school, and it is not easy to work together."

"That has nothing to do with us." Ximu said calmly, "We came to the Magic Kingdom just to learn magic."

Jade nodded, "Yes."

"Hecate is one of the sources of internal strife." Asraqi reminded, then stopped.

"Here we are, this is the room I reserved." She took out her magic key, opened the door, and pushed in.

"There are four separate bedrooms here, you can choose them yourself."

Geed looked at the interior decoration and suddenly said: "It would be great if Sister Leticia was here."

"She will probably have to work for a long time." Aslaqi waved her hand and randomly selected a bedroom.

She and Akhtar traveled all night last night, and now she was a little tired.

"Boss, I'll put the luggage away." Jed carried the suitcase and walked towards the other bedroom, accompanied by the sound of the door closing.

Ximu was the only one left in the living room, no... it was just two people. On the sofa in the living room, there was a mature and elegant woman sitting.

She drank tea and waved to Ximu.

"Apprentice, sit down."

"..."

Ximu walked over calmly and sat down opposite the woman. He didn't seem surprised by the sudden appearance of a mature woman.

In response, the mature woman smiled with satisfaction.

"Yes, it seems that I don't need to cultivate your psychological quality."

"Hecate?" Ximu asked tentatively, and the mature woman frowned when she heard this, with a serious look on her face, and said to him:

"It's Teacher Hecate."

Ximu nodded: "Teacher Hecate."

He was not surprised at all as to why Hecate was waiting for him in the room in advance.

As expected, Hecate will probably say next that she came to the Magic Kingdom because she promoted destiny.

"Apprentice, do you know why you are here?" Hecate put down the tea cup and looked serious.

Ximu also shook his head in cooperation.

"I pushed fate and made you come to me." Hecate explained to her apprentice without any secret.

"I want to become a witch and stand at the pinnacle of magic. You are an indispensable part and the most important person in my destiny."

Hearing this, Ximu said doubtfully: "Teacher Hecate, I can't teach you about magic."

Hecate shook her head slightly, showing a slight smile. There was something cute about her apprentice.

she explained.

"You standing by my side are part of my ritual to become a witch."

"Part of the ceremony?" Ximu seemed to have a slightly disgusted look on his face, "What if I don't want to stand by your side, teacher?"

"Then I'm sorry." Hecate shook her head and explained to Ximu, "Apprentice, I will not force you to stand by my side."

Speaking of this, she showed a gentle and serious expression.

"But if you are willing to stand by my side and accompany me on the path to pursue the witch, I will fulfill my responsibilities as a teacher until you grow up."

"..."

Ximu didn't respond immediately. He still needed to pretend. He couldn't agree too readily and wanted Hecate to see his entanglement and hesitation.

Even if he really refuses now, Hecate really won't force it, she will just express regret and then really ignore the player.

However, if the player chooses to become a teacher, Hecate will indeed fulfill the responsibility of the teacher, teach the player magic seriously, and also apply protective magic to the player.

And if the player wants to be a rebel disciple, there is also a side plot of the strategy. As long as the favorability level is high enough, after Hecate becomes a witch, he can propose to Hecate.

At that time, Hecate will say that the player is doing something treacherous, and then happily accept the player's proposal.

And if she doesn't propose, Hecate will remain a good teacher.

"Okay." Ximu nodded, seemingly agreeing with difficulty, and Hecate didn't care whether she was sincere or not.

Now that Ximu is already her apprentice, she will treat Ximu with the strictness and care of a teacher. Even if Ximu is hypocritical now, sooner or later she will become sincere.

This is the revelation of destiny, her witch's path.

"Apprentice, go and wash up." She poured herself a cup of black tea and spoke to Xi Mu, "We will start teaching later."

Ximu asked, "Is it too fast?"

"Wasting time is wasting your life." Hecate took a sip of black tea and looked at the apprentice in front of her with a smile.

"My teacher needs to solve your stubborn illness as soon as possible."

"Stubborn disease?" Ximu was silent for a moment, looking at Hecate who was smiling, and stood up on his knees, ready to go to the bathroom to take a shower.

"Wait, take off your armor and clothes here." Hecate stopped Ximu who was about to go to the bathroom, her voice extremely calm.

"We can start some preliminary research now."

"Teacher, are you serious?" Ximu asked, and saw Hecate nodded as a matter of course, she said in a tone of educating her apprentice.

"It's not shameful to study magic." Hecate shook her head, her red lips moved slightly, and then she snapped her fingers.

"Clang!" The armor Ximu was wearing fell off, and there was no cover except for a pair of underwear.

Hecate stood up, came to Ximu, carefully observed the physical condition of the apprentice, and then came to the conclusion:

"Apprentice, your life is indeed shortened."

Ximu sighed: "It seems that I am really going to die soon."

His life is indeed shortened, but it is not because of the fire of Surtur burning his life, but because he has been using the power of death without scruples during this period.

According to his current vitality, it is estimated that there will be a lot of vitality left after burning this world, not to mention that he will transform into a dragon.

There is no need to worry about the consumption of vitality.

"The problem is not very serious." Hecate comforted, and poked Ximu's shoulder with her finger.

"After taking a bath, I will take you to the treatment."

"..."

Ximu nodded, ran to the bathroom to take a bath, then put on his armor, and followed Hecate out of the hotel.

And along the way, it seems that no one noticed the existence of Hecate, who is obviously a very famous beauty.

However, everyone turned a blind eye to the existence of Hecate, as if Hecate did not exist.

From the perspective of others, it was just Ximu talking to himself in the air, but fortunately this is the Magic Kingdom, and people are very receptive to the power of the uncommon sense.

It was just that Ximu was talking to his mentor in the distance.

After a while.

Outside the small duel arena.

"I set up a magic circle to plunder life in the duel arena in advance." Hecate stepped into the duel arena and explained to Ximu, "I found that you seemed to be very interested in duels, so I transformed the duel arena according to your interest."

She smiled at Ximu.

"Use your best means to kill the enemy and plunder their vitality."

"Is this what you foresaw, teacher?" Ximu asked, and Hecate kept a mysterious smile and did not answer the question directly, but the answer was obvious.

Ximu did not ask more questions and went deeper into the duel arena.

Passing through the corridor.

The light came into view, and opposite the duel arena was an elf, holding a branch to form a bow and arrow, with an elegant and arrogant posture.

No need to say more.

"Start cutting!" Ximu rushed forward, holding the Hunting King's sword in his hand, and black flames ignited.
