Chapter 5: Hodtrotz Academy of Magic
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL

Lin An didn’t know how to reply to Mogeson’s doubtful gaze.
He didn’t know how to answer.
Did he need a test to enter the academy?
But ever since he transmigrated here, he only knew two spells, and they were both forbidden spells.
If this was released during a magic test, the scene would be unimaginable.
It was unknown whether all the examiners and students were shocked or not, but it was certain that their lives were in danger.
Therefore, for the sake of the examiners and students’ personal safety, Lin An shouldn’t release any magic in front of everyone.
Otherwise, if a magic apprentice released a forbidden spell, he would probably be cut into pieces to be studied.
“Regarding this, I have no problem.”
Facing Mogerson’s question, Lin An, who hadn’t thought of a solution for the time being, could only agree to it. But what he didn’t know was that… This action made Mogerson even more confused.
Because in Mogerson’s opinion, it was just casting a spell. What was so difficult about it?
Lin An’s behavior in front of him seemed to be guilty.
Moreover, the innate spell proof report that Lin An handed over was only Level-3, which was exactly the level that some students who wanted to sneak in were used to forging.
Because this level was relatively low, if there was really a test, it would be more likely that there would be a deviation. At that time, it would be easy to sneak into the Magic Academy if the magic ball didn’t sense properly. But if there was a direct release of the magic test… These people wouldn’t be able to disguise themselves anymore.
Therefore, when Mogerson saw Lin An’s reaction, he immediately sensed that something was wrong.
In his eyes, Lin An was like a student who wanted to sneak in. After hearing the new rules of this year’s test, he was shocked.
Although he didn’t dare to be 100% sure that Lin An was this kind of person, when the time came for the test, if there was a problem with Lin An, he would definitely give himself away. This didn’t make him too worried.
Therefore, after remembering Lin An’s appearance in his mind, Mogeson didn’t pay much attention to him.
Lin An, who had received the entrance scroll, immediately went to the school to register.
After entering the Hodtrotz Academy of Magic, Lin An felt as if he had entered a whole new world just by passing through the gate with the magic barrier.
Inside the gates were traditional academy buildings, but what was special was that each of these buildings had a unique magical aura, as if they were made from a rare magical material.
If one closed their eyes to carefully feel it, they would be able to clearly feel the magical elements on each of the buildings that were jumping around happily.
In the sky, one or two magic apprentices who had just finished their classes would pass by from time to time. They would ride on flying brooms and fly through the air. There were also some apprentices who wore magic robes and magic hats. They were holding magic books and talking and laughing with their companions.
In this environment where magic was constantly being released and dissipated, the air was filled with magic elements.
This place was indeed worthy of being the paradise of the legendary magicians!
Lin An began to enjoy the feeling of rich magic elements circling around him in this environment. This feeling was really comfortable.
Very soon, Lin An took the admission scroll and asked the seniors who had just finished their classes by the roadside about the assessment hall that the new students needed to go to for the assessment.
The seniors in the Magic Academy were also very enthusiastic and answered Lin An’s questions in detail.
In a short while, Lin An passed through the front yard of the Magic Academy and arrived at the inner core area of the academy.
Here, in addition to the assessment hall, there were also a large number of teaching facilities in the academy. The teaching tower, the magic experiment field, the library, the Dean’s office, and other important facilities were all built here.
After entering the assessment hall, it was a design similar to a classroom.
In the center of the hall, there was a large open space for sorcerer-apprentices to perform magic. At the highest point in front of the hall was where the sorcerer examiner sat, and opposite to it, behind the open space, were rows and rows of apprentice seats.
Lin An saw that there were already many young people like him sitting in the apprentice area.
Seeing this, Lin An didn’t dawdle. He directly walked in front of the apprentice area and handed the admission scroll to the manager.
“Your seat is number 62. The examiner for this magic test will arrive in five minutes. Just wait patiently.”
The manager handed a wooden token to Lin An. After giving instructions, he opened the small wooden door next to him.
Entering the apprentice area, Lin An looked at the wooden token and found his seat number 62. Sitting next to him was a very good-looking girl.
“Hello, excuse me.” Lin An opened his mouth and gestured for the girl to make way for him.
“Oh! Am I in your way? Sorry.”
Only then did the girl notice Lin An’s appearance. She hurriedly leaned back and made a path for Lin An.
Lin An passed through the girl’s seat. After sitting down, he didn’t have anything else to do. At that moment, he started to think quietly.
He was thinking about how he could get through this magic test.
Based on the current situation, no matter how much he thought, he couldn’t think of any solution.
Unless… He learned it now?
A thought suddenly appeared in Lin An’s mind. If he could learn a level-one spell in a short period of time, it wasn’t impossible. After all, he had level-three innate magic power, so he could still prove himself.
After thinking of this idea.
Lin An immediately took out a magic book from his backpack.
The magic book was called ‘100 Introductory Magic Spells for Sorcerers’.
This was a book that every sorcerer’s apprentice had to familiarize themselves with when they first came into contact with magic. There were 100 basic introductory magic spells recorded in it. As long as they studied diligently, they could learn them. It could be considered an introductory magic textbook for sorcerer’s apprentices.
However, as he read on, Lin An was gradually about to give up. It was very clear that the ancient language magic book that he could not understand previously would not be able to be learned just because he was in a hurry to learn it.
Right at this moment.
A young and tender voice came from beside him.
“Eh, are you also reading this magic book?”
Lin An looked at the young girl beside him. From her actions just now, he felt that this young girl gave him a pretty good feeling, so he casually replied.
“Yes, yes, I’m learning some of the spells in this magic book,” Lin An replied.
“Oh, I see. You’ve been frowning just now. Did you encounter some difficulties?” the girl asked. “My name is Susanna. If you don’t mind, you can tell me about the difficulties you’ve encountered. Maybe I can help you.”
Susanna smiled as she spoke to Lin An.
Ever since she was young, she had been carefully nurtured by her family. Because she was doted on by her family, she had also developed a kind and cheerful personality that was very likable.
She also knew about the ‘100 Introductory Magic Spells for Sorcerers’ that Lin An read. The spells on it were very simple and she had learned them a long time ago.
But then, just as Susanna wanted to take a closer look at which spell Lin An had encountered a problem with, she was immediately dumbfounded.
That was because the ‘100 Introductory Magic Spells for Sorcerers’ that Lin An kept reading back and forth with a frown was still stuck on the first page!
The first page?!
He didn’t even know the most basic method of absorbing magic energy?
Susanna was completely dumbfounded. Absorbing magic energy could be seen from the name. It was to let an apprentice sorcerer learn how to absorb magic energy. It roughly described how a sorcerer could sense the surrounding magic elements and absorb them to make use of them.
And the young man in front of her didn’t even know the basics of absorbing magical energy?
Then how did he dare to come to the Magic Academy?
Susanna’s eyelids twitched wildly, and her heart couldn’t help but be shocked. In the end, she couldn’t help but ask Lin An, “Excuse me… Excuse me, have you never learned magic at home?”
