Chapter 955: 297. “Teammate” pranking_2
After breakfast, he audited a class where Denise Green was teaching Nicolette.
In front of Noland Lee, Nicolette acted somewhat shy.
Whenever Noland Lee looked at her, she would turn her face towards her textbook or Denise Green, forcing herself not to make eye contact with Noland…
If Noland Lee looked at her for too long, she would raise the book to block the line of sight between herself and Noland.
When Noland Lee looked away, she would lower the book by an inch or two and stealthily observe Noland from behind it.
As soon as Noland Lee turned his head towards her, she would hurriedly raise the book again, once more cutting off his view.
“Hey, you two stop messing around, I’m teaching here,” Denise Green said, poking Noland Lee in the ribs.
“Heh heh heh,” Noland Lee chuckled a few times before asking Nicolette,
“Are you getting used to living here?”
“Mhm mhm,” Nicolette responded with a nod, using the book to cover the lower half of her face.
“I hear from Denise and Nolin that you have better talent in Alchemy, right?” Noland Lee asked again.
“Mhm mhm mhm,” Nicolette nodded repeatedly.
Noland Lee then asked,
“So, do you prefer Alchemy, or Magic?”
Nicolette glanced at Noland Lee and Denise Green, then lowered the book that was covering the lower half of her face and looked down at the tabletop, murmuring,
“Umm… I like Magic more.”
“Do you prefer Magic because Denise and I are wizards?” Noland Lee asked.
Nicolette’s two hands twisted together nervously beneath the table.
She nodded in response.
After exchanging a look with Denise, Noland Lee said,
“Well then, Nicolette, once you complete the preschool Magic Course, I’ll have Selena give you the Magic Enlightenment. The success rate of Magic Enlightenment at 16 years old is rather low, generally no more than 20%. If you succeed, of course, that’s cause for celebration. But if you fail, I hope you won’t be discouraged, because the profoundness of Alchemy is no less than that of Magic.”
Nicolette nodded in what seemed like a dejected manner.
Thinking she was upset, Denise was about to comfort her when she saw Nicolette lift her head, her face filled with curiosity as she asked Noland,
“Jarvis, what exactly is your relationship with Denise?”
Ah, this… Noland Lee was taken aback, not expecting Nicolette to be so gossipy at such a young age.
Denise, too, was a bit confused.
Nicolette blinked, propped her chin on her hands, and asked again,
“Will you marry Denise in the future? If you two get married, will you have wizard babies?”
Noland Lee raised his hand to his forehead, feeling emotional.
No no, the study pressure on this girl Nicolette isn’t high enough, she needs her coursework doubled.
Let’s have her memorize the Encyclopedia of Magic Patterns and Magic Materials first.
