[Lias was extrely conflicted.]
[She was both distressed about Alice squandering her talent and hesitant about whether to bring Alice to the Roland Magic Academy.]
[For so reason, the Roland Magic Academy had long declined. It was no longer the super strong magic academy that reigned supre across the Dawn Continent.]
[Since the Revival of Gods, the Roland Magic Academy had beco a thorn in the side of all Churches.]
[Almost every month, investigators from different Churches would forcibly enter the Roland Magic Academy under the pretext of investigating the Twilight Saintess.]
[The professors tried to resist, but the Gods intervened directly.]
[This was the only battle of high-level strength resistance against the Gods that erupted on the Dawn Continent after the Revival of Gods.]
[The professors perished in this battle.]
[Roland Magic Academy, having suddenly lost a large number of powerful mages, rapidly declined and gradually disappeared from the eyes of the world.]
[However, as the soil that once gave rise to the Twilight Saintess, the Church and the Empire never ceased their surveillance and restriction of this academy.]
[Due to the presence of a large number of mage graduates from the Roland Academy, they didn't dare to destroy the academy directly, but the restrictions on the new graduates over the years have gradually led to the Academy's inability to attract new students.]
[At first, it was the nobility who gave up on enrollnt.]
[Then gradually, it was the middle class.]
[Finally, even the talented from the lower classes gave up on this once mighty academy.]
[If the professors had not gone around seeking magical talents for enrollnt, the Roland Academy might have already nominally ceased to exist.]
[Lias stood at the entrance of an Ensate City tavern, gazing at the sky full of stars.]
[Her thoughts returned to twenty years ago when she was still a girl.]
[Her ntor held her hand and told her about the old stories of the Roland Magic Academy.]
[The purest mages never had faith, or rather, their faith was only in truth.]
[And the professors of the Roland Magic Academy were always the purest mages who never deigned to obey those lofty Gods.]
[They were either gentle or radical and irritable, but without exception, they were true mages.]
["Mages should study the truth of the world, not the nonsense of the Gods," her teacher told her.]
[Not long after, her teacher died, at the hands of the Thunder Knights.]
[The cause was the Thunder Knights wanting to topple the last statue of the Twilight Saintess in the Roland Academy of the Roland Empire.]
["That is the statue of an excellent graduate of the Roland Academy! No one can topple her!" Those were her teacher's last words.]
Shen Sui fell into a brief silence upon seeing this.
He didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
The joy was that even after more than a thousand years, there were still people who rembered Vivian.
The sadness, however, was that those people died because of this.
[Alice heard Lias's invitation, falling into brief hesitation.]
[Claude had set a very detailed plan for her.]
[Would Claude be angry if the plan wasn't followed?]
[But Alice did feel she should properly study magic knowledge.]
[She couldn't make progress in her training — was it due to a problem with her training thod?]
No, the problem isn't with the training thod, the problem is with you.
Shen Sui criticized in his heart.
[Alice felt that she couldn't continue like this.]
[If this delayed her rate of becoming stronger, what if she encountered danger again and beca a burden to Claude?]
[The scene of falling before the War God had beco an eternal mory for Alice, she didn't want this to happen again.]
[For this, she did her best to suppress her intense anger towards the Church of the Master of Thunder.]
[On the way, she only burned five of the Master of Thunder's churches.]
This is what you call restraint!
Is it Rue, indeed?
[Lias told Alice that once she beca a student of Roland Magic Academy, it was very likely she would be antagonized by the Church of the Master of Thunder and the Roland Empire.]
[Alice didn't expect there would be such a fortunate thing.]
[She began to lean towards one side and asked why the Roland Magic Academy had fallen to such a state.]
[Lias raised her head proudly and said, "Because the Roland Magic Academy is the alma mater of the Twilight Saintess, Vivian."]
[Alice's eyes lit up, and she imdiately made up her mind.]
[Vivian, the one who defeated Qishala and Freymia, was the most important woman in Claude's heart! Vivian's alma mater, I must go! Even if it's just to punch a card!]
[Alice started asking for your opinion.]
Ah... Checking the ti, it seed I was working at that mont, and then fell asleep due to exhaustion, missing Alice's question indeed.
[You did not answer.]
[Alice assud you agreed.]
Ding! You obtained a spell card: Opinion Inquiry
Hey, hey, hey! Not answering ans agreeing, where did you learn this from!
[Alice followed Lias to Roland City.]
[Though the Roland Magic Academy is still at its original location, due to imperial estrangent and church oppression, the once prosperous neighborhood rapidly declined, now leaving only a vague area of stone and rubble around the vicinity.]
[Yet even so, when entering the Roland Magic Academy, the group was t with obstruction by guards.]
[The guards, looking annoyed, told Alice to leave her na.]
[It was a mandatory order; anyone entering Roland Magic Academy had to leave their na.]
[Alice thought for a mont and wrote down a na on the list:]
[Alois Yimiti]
[Alois Yimiti Hozerville! That's the full na of Witch Hozerville!]
Shen Sui noticed Alice's attention to detail in naming.
Her current main na had already overshadowed her original surna, generally only calling herself Alice, and if necessary, she would report her full na using the surna Modena.
Alois, this na within the Dawn Continent, has many nicknas, one of which is Alice. Of course, according to Alice, her father told her, her na originates from an ancestor of the Hozerville family, a mage nad Alois.
Hozerville was Alice's original surna, which gradually gained prominence with the na of Witch Hozerville.
Yimiti, though, was Vivian's surna.
However, your main na uses my surna, and the small na uses Vivian's surna — if I hadn't explained properly, Freymia and Qishala might think you were my biological daughter.
Shen Sui mocked.
[Alice entered Roland Magic Academy and began her studies.]
[There weren't many students in the academy, most of them were brought back by the professors from outside.]
[Alice quickly got along with them.]
[Alice was cultivating.]
[Alice progressing slowly.]
[Alice continuously cultivating.]
[Alice, oh Alice! You must persist! Only with persistence will you succeed!]
[Alice decided to explore around the academy.]
[Alice encountered a squad of Thunder Knights coming for inspection.]
[Alice was very friendly.]
[Alice quickly got along with them.]
