Chapter 68: Vacation Planning, Results_l
Translator: 549690339
The exam is over.
Once the results are announced tonight, there will be no more classes tomorrow, marking the official end of the autumn term.
A month and a half of vacation is here.
After dinner, following their daily routine, Link and Jasmine went to the
library.
On the way, Jasmine took the initiative to ask, “Link, what are your plans for
the holiday?”
“Never mind about me, I have other arrangements.
Link understood what Jasmine meant and instead of saying what she was expecting, he earnestly suggested, “I thinkyou can take advantage of this month and a half and the convenient conditions in the laboratory to practice witchcraft.”
jasmine has a high affinity for the wood element, and a mid-level affinity for water and earth elements. When choosing witchcraft, she can reference Link’s choices, but she can’t copy them outright.
After receiving 128 magic stones, she spent 82 on magic tools and rune objects, then spent another 30 on six zero ring spells.
The water system’s Water Ball Spell, Water Shield Spell, and Purification Water Spell, Wood System’s Thorn Entanglement, and Earth Systems’s Earth Shield Technique and Earth Wall Technique.
In recent weeks, much of Jasmine’s time and energy outside of class has been focused on research and experiments, so her progress in learning witchcraft hasn’t been very satisfying.
Many aspects related to Rule Rune are not learned from textbooks alone.
These need to be observed, analyzed, and experimented.
Jasmine doesn’t have the opportunities that Link does, she doesn’t have the support of “Philius Flitwick’s Talent for Spellcasting,” so she can’t learn quickly.

If she can’t move fast enough, she just has to work harder.
If jasmine doesn’t want to fall too far behind, she needs to work even harder during the holidays.
She sniffed, lowered her head, and quietly answered, “I’ll try my best.” After a pause, she gathered her emotions and asked, “What about you? What are you going to do during the holiday?”
Link had no intention of hiding this: “I plan to go to Ravensmouth City, tour all the places I can, and get a sense of the place. If…”
At this point, Link hesitated for a while before continuing, “If all conditions are suitable, I plan to find a part-time job in the city. There are many things you can’t understand just from looking from the outside. You have to experience it personally.”
The meaning was clear enough; it wouldn’t be convenient to bring her along.
“Oh.”
Jasmine responded, her emotions becoming more complex. She became reluctant to speak.
They were almost at the library.
Jasmine lowered her head and walked a few steps faster than Link, and entered the reading room first, then hid in a comer near the window.
Most of her was hidden in the shadow, especially her small face.
It was hard to see her eyes and expression.
Link understood that this was typical behavior of a girl in her adolescence. Emotions can be unstable and prone to sentimental moods.
Leave her be and it will pass.
Right?
Link didn’t reflect any more on it and after settling down, he began to review the Potion study-related knowledge he had hard studied for in the past four weeks.
With “Severus Snape’s Magic Apothecary Talent”, the experience was different. It was like his processor had been upgraded from dual-core to quad-core, his speed of learning and understanding knowledge was flying.
Jasmine saw that Link was engrossed in his study, his eyes only had room for texts and documents, and she felt angry, annoyed, and embarrassed.
What kind of person is he?
He clearly saw that she was unhappy and he didn’t come to comfort her.
Rigid person!
While Link wasn’t paying attention, Jasmine scrunched her nose, lightly stuck out her tongue, and made a face at him.
She contemptuously dismissed Link in her heart.
She quickly regained her composed expression before Link looked up, pretending to read and study.
Actually, Link could sense Jasmine’s every move.
It’s just that he didn’t want to embarrass the girl by catching her in the act. Finding a girl who can self-regulate her emotions and not act out is pretty hard to find.
He should be more considerate of her feelings.
Time ticks away.
Nightfall, gradually deepening.
The time to leave the library had arrived.
Before they left, Jasmine took out her personal computer to look at the exam results that had been announced for some time.
Merely a glance, her expression instantly changed and exclaimed in surprise, “Link, it’s not you who came first!”
“Hmm?”
Link immediately became interested, wondering which genius or geniuses had outperformed him.
Without pulling out his own personal computer, he leaned over to Jasmine, looking at the ranks and scores from high to low.
The first place was taken by the only new blood from the first grade with the advanced fifth rank qualifications, Lanny Taylor.
The name written in the second position, was Link Grande.
Both their scores were the same, yet, Lanny Taylor’s was ranked higher. “Perhaps they took the wizard qualifications into consideration?
Link speculated as such.
The name Jasmine Kidman took up the fifth place.
Improved by two spots compared to mid-term exams.
Congratulatory and commendable. Link immediately congratulated Jasmine, “Congratulations, you’ve advanced again.”
“Aren’t you aware of who this miss is!” jasmine tilted up her little head, proudly huffed, “I’m not like someone who even dropped a rank!”
Indeed, the hearts of girls really weren’t big, she had taken her revenge immediately.
Link was speechless.
Because this was the truth.
What surprised Link was that five guys firmly occupied places 6 to to. Pushing Harold Andrews, whose exam score was also pretty good, to the nth place.
After this minor interlude, Link and Jasmine left the library, each returning to their own dormitories.
Study room.
Link first completed his daily deep meditation, then sat at the study desk, quietly contemplating.
During the vacation, to visit Ravensmouth City and see the outside world, was the decision Link made after much contemplation.
It was not an impulsive idea out of nowhere.
The academy was like an Ivory Tower, protecting the local apprentices and fresh blood from the Stormy Sea, allowing them to grow strongly without getting mired.
As long as he didn’t mess up, while in the academy, one basically did not need to worry about personal safety.
The wind and rain outside the academy was unable to affect the academy. However, the world was vast, the academy was just a small part of it.
Link had to eventually step out of the Ivory Tower, enter society, move towards the vast world, towards the starry ocean.
Instead of stepping out with little understanding, like a blank sheet of paper, Link chose to plunge into that vast dye vat ahead of time.
Whether he would be colored by it, or make a clean break, he would know soon enough.
People outside the city want to come in, and those inside want to leave. Link took out all his magical tools and rune objects, put them on the desk, and wrote down the eight Zero Ring witchcraft he mastered on paper, also on display.
He looked at the magical tools, rune objects, and witchcraft list in front of him, estimated his strength, and made plans for various possible situations. Going out unprepared was as bad as being a reckless brute without a brain. If not completely foolproof, at least make the best preparation within one’s power.
A moment later, Link collected all the magical tools and rune objects carefully, then destroyed the witchcraft list.
Relaxed and slept, ready for action, quietly waiting for tomorrow to come. Time waits for no one, he must seize the time!
