Knight's Infinite Journey - Chapter 213
c207 Work
How old is Yadimu now?
Regarding this issue, to be honest, Yadimu himself didn’t know much.
Time in the Dawn World is easy to calculate, but time in other worlds is not so easy.
Some of those worlds are projected into, while others are entered directly.
Logically speaking, Yadimu should be much older than sixteen now.
But in reality, Yadimu could feel that his current physical age should still be at the number sixteen.
This is somewhat inexplicable.
After all, if the projection can be explained by not being one’s own body, then everything in Noah’s world cannot be explained by this reason.
In Noah’s world, Yadi Mu spent a lot of time.
But after returning to Dawn World, these seemed to have been reset.
But there’s not much to say about that.
With the powerful force shown by the hourglass, it does not seem to be a strange thing to do this.
“As for specialties, the foundation of mage’s meditation and archery.”
Yadimu pondered for a moment and finally gave these two answers.
If he is the best at something, it is naturally the method of tempering the body and the swordsmanship.
But these things are limited by his current situation and are somewhat difficult to perform.
Knights are not popular on the continent of Helis. Their number is quite small, and not many people are interested in them.
However, aspects related to mages are quite popular on this continent.
As for archery, it is because of the elves.
In addition to their magic, the most outstanding thing about the elves is their superb archery skills.
In Kaiyue City, which is close to the Silver Moon Forest, outstanding archery is also a good skill.
“Are you a mage apprentice?”
After listening to Yatimu’s words, the person in charge in front of him immediately stood up and looked at Yatimu much more cautiously.
Looking at it like this, it seems that they are paying more attention to it.
No wonder.
Although there are many mages in Kaiyue City, and many mage apprentices can even be seen on the streets, this does not mean that these mages are not valuable.
On the contrary, even in this city, a mage is a very noble person and can be regarded as a noble class.
And a mage apprentice can basically be regarded as a reserve for the nobles, and is naturally worthy of attention.
“So be it.”
Yadimu hesitated for a moment, then nodded: “I have been studying outside before.”
This sentence concealed his own origin.
The person in charge nodded thoughtfully, having a rough idea in his mind.
This situation is not uncommon.
Silver Moon Forest is one of the famous gathering places for mages nearby, so a large number of outside mages often enter here to seek progress and growth in the path of mages.
In this case, a situation like Yadimu’s is not that rare.
Next, he took Yadimu aside and started testing in a special place.
Soon, the test results came out.
Yadimu walked out with the tester.
“Your academic experience is quite strong. Even those students taught by formal mages are not as good as you, Mr. Yadimu, in my opinion.”
The tester is an old man named Riya, who is a senior mage apprentice.
After the test, he admired Yadimu’s mage skills and was full of praises along the way.
“Unfortunately, Mr. Yadimu is a bit weak in the use of spells. If you use them in actual combat, you may easily have some problems.”
He seemed a little regretful about Yadimu’s performance in casting spells.
In his opinion, with the mage skills Yadimu has shown, if he can also perform magic in actual combat, he can almost be regarded as the most top mage apprentice.
However, in the test just now, although Yadimu’s spells were cast without any problems, the speed seemed too slow and seemed rather jerky.
This kind of performance is naturally not a problem when used in daily life, but if it is used in actual combat, the problem will be big.
You can actually cast a spell for seven or eight seconds, and the magic ball from the opposite side will hit you in the face.
This has to be said to be a fatal flaw.
Regarding this shortcoming of his, Yadimu could only smile bitterly in return and made no excuses.
His mage lessons were basically learned from Isius, so naturally it was more about the mastery and understanding of knowledge, and less about practical practice.
In the past, this was actually not necessary.
After all, he usually cuts people with a sword, and there is no use for hitting people with fireballs or anything like that.
There is no problem if the actual spell combat is slower.
But showing it now is naturally somewhat of a flaw.
I don’t know if his death will affect his employment.
“Based on what you have shown, Mr. Yadimu, I am afraid that you are not qualified for jobs such as mercenaries, but you have good advantages in other aspects.”
Riya pondered for a moment, then said with a smile: “I wonder, Mr. Yadimu, if you have any problems with home teaching?”
“We happen to have several commissions here. Several noble gentlemen are seeking an excellent mage teacher for their children.”
A mage teacher?
Isn’t this the job of tutoring?
Yadimu was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and nodded: “I have no problem.”
For Yadimu, this kind of work is actually more in line with his heart.
He appears to be fine at the moment, but is actually still in a weakened condition.
It’s really not a good idea to kill people in this state.
Even if it’s good to teach honestly, at least you can practice quietly.
After confirming Yadimu’s intention, the old man in front of him quickly recorded it.
Then another half a month passed.
Days passed by, and just when Yadimu was wondering if his job was about to fail, definite news finally came.
In a fairly spacious mansion.
“Are you Mr. Yadimu?”
In the spacious living room, a middle-aged man with thick blond hair had a serious face. He was looking at Yadimu up and down: “I heard from Mr. Riya that you have sufficient training as a mage.”
“But it seems to me that your aristocratic training is equally good.”
The majestic middle-aged man with blond hair looks like an aristocrat and has a keen eye.
From some of the details shown by Yadimu, he could keenly see that Yadimu seemed to be a mage with a noble background.
This reassured him a lot.
In thinking, the number of mages is not small, and their sources are diverse.
But relatively speaking, a mage with a noble background can still give people more confidence.
This is understandable.
So at this moment, the middle-aged man immediately felt a little fond of Yadimu.
Of course, in this process, Yadimu’s own cultivation and excellent appearance are also one of the important reasons.
Most people say that you can’t judge a book by its appearance, but it has to be said that most of the time, a good first impression can indeed occupy a considerable weight in people’s hearts.
This is what Yadimu is like at this moment.
Of course, out of caution, the middle-aged man still asked Yadimu some questions and made a general inspection.
After Yadimu answered one by one, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
“If there is no problem, please sign this agreement.”
The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and placed a contract that had been drafted in front of Yadimu: “In the name of the Farley family, I will give you adequate treatment and respect. I also hope that Mr. Yadimu can do your best. Finish the job and don’t let me down.”
Yadimu took a rough look at the contract.
The contract is standard, and most of it has no problems. It only stipulates Yadimu’s monthly treatment and the duration of the contract.
Of course, there are also the most important responsibilities and requirements.
According to this contract, Yadimu works in the Hailei family and can receive ten gold coins every month.
The duration is three months.
Ten gold coins, this amount surprised even Yadimu.
As expected, it is an expensive place, even the price of hiring a tutor is so high.
And this is just the basic treatment, there are many bits and pieces of conditions.
After taking a casual look around and making sure there was no big problem, Yadimu signed his name.
“Then, I hope Mr. Yadimu enjoys his stay here.”
Seeing Yadimu sign his name, Simon smiled and stretched out his hand to hold Yadimu’s hand.
“A pleasure to work with.”
In the following time, Yadimu lived in the Hai Lei family as a tutor.
The Hai Lei family is not very large, but it can be considered a famous and fortunate noble, so it also owns quite a lot of property in Kaiyue City.
Their manor was large enough to have a room available for Yadimu to live in.
This is also to facilitate Yadimu to provide guidance nearby.
As for Yadimu’s students, there are three in total.
Two boys and one girl.
The three children are not too old. The eldest boy is the eldest son of Baron Simon, who is only twelve years old this year.
As for the youngest one, he is only about eight years old this year.
To be honest, it is a bit early to start the mage’s enlightenment at this age.
“Father asked us to undergo mage training. It seems that he wants us to take part in this year’s mage test.”
After one class, the only girl among the three stayed beside Yadimu, muttering alone: ”He said this was a rare opportunity.”
“It’s truly a rare opportunity.”
Yadimu nodded and agreed.
Kaiyue City is located on the border of Silver Moon Forest, and the mage culture is very popular nearby.
Therefore, there are many large and small mage schools taking root nearby, and students are regularly selected.
Every five years, they would conduct wizard tests nearby, free of charge for young people under the age of twenty.
Generally speaking, this kind of test can test a person’s mage qualifications to the greatest extent.
This is an opportunity for many people.
Don’t underestimate the test of lawyer qualifications.
Anywhere related to mages is expensive.
If you want to test the qualifications of a mage, you also need a lot of financial resources.
Of course, with Baron Simon’s identity and strength, he wants to test his children privately, which is naturally no problem.
But the accuracy is hard to say.
The mage qualification test is held every five years. This is the most authoritative and accurate test in the area.
The results of this test are not only quite accurate, but also a public mage qualification test certificate will be issued by the Mage Alliance, which is equivalent to official endorsement and certification. The gold content is completely different from the results of external private agency tests.
As long as you have the qualification endorsement and certification developed by the Mage Alliance, you can join other schools with this certification and pave the way for your future.
Even nobles like Baron Simon must pay attention to the results of this kind of gold content and authoritative certification.
That’s why this temporary training came about.
Although the mage qualification test is only a qualification test, there will also be some certification and assessment of the mage’s quality.
If the results obtained are excellent, there will also be many benefits.
This is why Baron Simon is so active.
Yadimu knew this very well.
Isn’t this quite gold-plated and a way to gain seniority? He is quite familiar with it.
After knowing Baron Simon’s purpose, he also learned in detail about the past examination questions of the Mage Alliance, and used his supervisory initiative to give the three children in front of him a good training.
Unfortunately, although he is quite interested in this job, his three children may not work hard.
Despite Baron Simon’s painstaking efforts, it seems that not all of them can move.
The two boys are obsessed with playing and are usually in a fishing state. As long as they complete the tasks assigned by Yadimu, they will be fine.
The only girl in front of me was quite serious. After the class every day, she came to Yadimu to ask various questions.
Although, the girl’s purpose doesn’t seem to be that simple.
In front of Yatimu, Lesa held a piece of clean white paper in her hand and asked questions while her eyes kept looking at Yatimu’s face. Her gaze was as direct as possible.
I don’t know if she was thinking of something special, but her face would turn red from time to time, looking shy.
That’s what it means, a person can understand it.
“Is there anything else?”
After answering the question on Lesa’s hand, Yadimu looked at the girl in front of him and asked casually: “If nothing is wrong, then go back and rest early.”
“Teacher Yadimu”
The girl’s slight voice sounded in my ears.
Unknowingly, the girl’s body was very close to Yadimu, almost leaning on Yadimu: “I have a rest tomorrow, can you go out to play with me?”
“I heard there’s a newly opened garden outside and it seems to be quite nice.”
Yadimu looked at the girl speechlessly.
To be honest, the girl in front of me actually looks pretty good. She has a delicate appearance and decent clothes. Overall, she looks like a little princess.
But the problem is that this girl is only eleven years old now.
You are only so young, why do you know so much?
