On the public chat.
Basil: "Sophie, raise your hand. Ask if this magic can be learned in class. And what about the magic from the previous history of magic class?"
Sophie raised her hand in class and asked the question that Basil had asked.
All the princesses perked up their ears. They were all still holding storybooks in their hands. They were all very interested in Sophie's question.
Professor Duowei laughed at this, "Sharp insight, Sophie."
Professor Anemone originally told me not to tell you.
"You probably heard that from those hopeless people. Without finger magic—you just cast spells based on emotions."
"Normal magic is extremely complicated, disgusting, and even evil."
"And the magic you encountered in these two lessons wasn't exactly evil."
"But it's extremely complicated. It's far more complex than what's taught in class. It requires specific timing, temperature, and even the magician's birth date."
"It also requires spellcasting materials for specific seasons, to set up rituals, or to prepare medicines for ingestion."
"These are all skills that need to be cultivated and practiced from a young age. It often takes several years to master them."
"What we teach you in class is a simplified version."
"Only magicians with Finger Magic can learn it through such simple steps."
Upon hearing this, almost all the princesses put aside the storybooks they had been cherishing for the past few days.
Professor Anemone pointed to the lake, "Today I'm going to teach you how to raise wishing fish."
"Our Winky underwater friends understand our deepest desires. Ladies, if your desires are strong enough, they may come true."
One by one, silvery-white fish surged toward the lake.
All the princesses were excited.
Making wishes is something they are very familiar with, something that comes from fairy tales.
Sophie, who was also familiar with fairy tales, was the same.
But Professor Duowei gently reprimanded, "Please be quiet, ladies."
"They are just ordinary fish now. I remember saying that the magical animals from before have all returned to their original forms and gone back to their homeland."
"Even though I have been feeding them with my wishes for some time, they are still a long way from becoming true wishing fish."
"Question: What is needed for the creation of a wishing fish?"
The Japanese girl next to Beatrix raised her hand.
Professor Duowei nodded. "Okay, please answer, Kiko."
Kiko quickly replied, "My wish."
Professor Duowei nodded. "Yes, that's the purpose of your lesson: to dip your fingers into the lake and feed it with your wishes."
"They can also exert influence according to your wishes."
"If the wish isn't too big, logically it's very likely to come true now."
"You go first, Kiko."
Next, one by one, the princesses dipped their fingers into the lake.
The fish at the bottom of the lake also reflected their wishes on the lake surface.
On the public chat, Madison scoffed, "Isn't this just another version of the Mirror of Erised? Cultivating wishing fish. Unless the students stay on to teach after graduation, these wishing fish won't even belong to the school. What a bunch of idiots."
However, Sophie didn't notice anything on the public chat.
Now it's her turn.
The previous one was Beatrix, and the scene on the lake was of her kissing Basil.
Rather, all the images of princesses are related to Basil.
This made Basil want to wash his eyes.
There are very few beautiful princesses in movies.
There's no shortage of ethnic minorities, but they've all cast actors who fit stereotypes.
In short, it has nothing to do with being good-looking.
Right now, gasps of surprise are coming from the live stream chat.
Because the images projected by the wishing fish are very stimulating for princesses who are still virgins.
Basil's body was fully projected onto it, as was Sophie's.
However, she was in a dominant position, and Basil was being manipulated at will.
This scene was so alluring that even Professor Duowei became captivated.
All the princesses bit their lips and drifted into daydreams.
Only Sophie, who had actually eaten meat, hurriedly pulled her finger out of the lake and cut off the live stream.
All that remained were sighs rising and falling.
Judging from the voices, almost every princess has one, including Professor Duowei.
On the public chat.
Basil: "I've been seen naked!?"
Sophie quickly explained, "It's just a wish. It's fake, it's special effects."
Madison feigned ignorance. "What? You and Basil are already—impossible! He's so strong, how could your small frame dominate?"
Sophie: "I've already said, this is just a wish. Can you honestly say you haven't thought about it?"
"I'll stop here for now." Professor Duowei abruptly ended the class, pulled me away from the lakeside, and said he had something to say to me.
"Those pools are still by the lake; they definitely want to see them again!"
Basil, flipping through "The Encyclopedia of Magical Creatures" in the library, was utterly speechless.
Having witnessed the forbidden image, the princesses' desires likely changed, becoming even bolder.
Therefore, the footage of them sticking their fingers into the lake and making wishes for the fish's reflection will probably no longer be able to be broadcast.
So, he's now inexplicably become an AV actor.
Is there no justice left?
This wiped away Basil's joy at having just found Dream Owl bred from an owl.
He was originally dreaming of taking photos and making cards of himself after Fenda became the Dream Owl, so that he could build his own kingdom in his dreams.
Does this mean his innocence is gone?
Even wishful thinking won't work!
Caw! No!
Basil's Excalibur at his waist sensed his emotions.
He began to glow, and a divine light enveloped his body as he headed towards the lake.
Basil has become light!
By the lake, Beatrix's hair was disheveled, and her elegant princess dress was now tattered and full of holes.
The exposed, fair skin glowed with a fluorescent light, reflecting the Heyang.
One princess after another was pushed to the ground by her; the inexhaustible stamina brought by her [Radiant Beauty] talent made her like an iron wall.
Even the heaviest of the black princesses, no one could get past her to reach the lake.
She took control and drove away all the princesses who tried to get closer to the wishing fish.
Even though her followers were among them.
"Don't even think about getting close to the Wishing Fish!" Beatrix hunched over, staring ahead like a sumo wrestler.
A fire seemed to ignite in his emerald green eyes.
The other princesses were stunned by that gaze, but then they remembered the fleeting glimpse they had just caught.
They all struggled to their feet.
Just as the flames of war were about to reignite, a light appeared before Beatrix.
Basil knelt on one knee, descending upon the scene as the Ultimate Nullifier.
The scattered light coalesced into a sword at his waist.
"Girls, the war is over." After he finished speaking, the wishing fish that had been resting by the lake dispersed again and dived back to the bottom of the lake.
He snapped his the Snap.
[Grimoire] Turn the page, [Reparo]
The power of the Repairing Charm radiated outwards.
Within a thirty-foot radius of him, time seemed to flow backward.
The princesses' messy hairstyles were restored to neatness, and their tattered clothes Reparo.
The kingly demeanor, imbued with the dragon's might, brought the princesses back to their senses.
After offering an apologetic gesture, they all left the lawn.
Only Basil and Beatrix remained by the lake.
He turned his head and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "You did a great job."
Beatrix shook her head slightly, both embarrassed and dissatisfied. "No, not enough. I haven't taught that damn hopeless a lesson yet."
"But soon, the day after tomorrow, Sunday, we will be officially given the magic."
"At that time—"
Basil's finger silenced Beatrix's words by pressing it to her lips.
"Remember, the kind never attack first."
Beatrix, somewhat unconvinced, buried her head in Basil's shoulder and said in a muffled voice, "I was just defending myself."
We will leave aside how Basil comforted her later.
On the public chat, Sophie was throwing a tantrum.
"What do you mean I can't be alone with Basil anymore?"
Madison: "What did that black woman say?"
Sophie: "She first said that it was a wishing fish, and that wishes could come true. She told me to control my desires and not to be used by Raphael."
"Then they talked about a seemingly unrelated topic. They said that one person's strength is limited, and that King Arthur is the only hero in the Fairy Tale Kingdom who gathers many people, so he is brave and invincible. He is known as the good king. He can defeat the world-destroying red dragon."
"Then she brought up my wish again. She said it opened Pandora's box, and that having many wishes like mine was probably Raphael's purpose. It was another form of gathering the masses. The goal was to make King Arthur lose his purity."
Madison: "How so? Country girl."
Sophie: "She said the power of the wishing fish was far from enough to affect a great hero like King Arthur."
"But if all the desires are similar and related to taking away his purity, this commonality may create a miracle. A miracle like King Arthur's killing of the world-destroying red dragon. Among the princesses, one is destined to take away his purity."
"It's even possible that this is hopeless for someone."
Madison: "So you were put on a ban?"
"This is what you deserve, you country bumpkin, no, you filthy idiot. That's what I should call you."
Sophie: "You—"
Madison: "Am I wrong? Basil is now the only hope of taking Raphael. And you certainly had a bad influence."
"And you idiot, have you forgotten we have a club?"
"Our communication with Basil is something that distance between worlds cannot hinder."
"Not to mention a Black woman."
——
[Dream Owl. Legend has it that after being raised for three years, the Snowy Owl is immersed in dreams at midnight, soaring through the Dream Sea. During the day, the Snowy Owl is allowed to doze in the treetops. This process is repeated for three years. Over time, the Snowy Owl becomes extraordinary, able to freely traverse between reality and the Dream Sea. It can also take its master in and out.]
The above is the training method for Dream Owl, the original version, for mages who do not possess Finger Magic.
This method is recorded in Old English, and contains some technical terms. It is quite obscure.
In other words, snowy owls older than three years old are soaked in a potion made from extracted dreams at midnight.
That way it can enter the dream.
After expelling it from the dream and returning to reality, place it on the top of the tree in the morning and pretend to sleep.
After repeating this process for three years, the snowy owl will transform into Dream Owl.
The owner who nurtures it and thus has a wondrous connection with it can also follow its physical form into the dreams of others.
After the dreamer wakes up, the Dream Owl can retain a portion of the Dream Fragment when the dream shatters.
It can serve as the cornerstone of Eternity dream.
This is not just a guess.
Indeed, a magician used this to build an Eternity dream, although it was only one square inch in size.
The reason it cannot grow larger is that a magician can only raise one Dream Owl.
Each time a Dream Owl brings out a [Dream Fragment], it is extremely small.
Even if it takes a hundred years, the area of the dream created would probably not exceed 10 square feet.
Therefore, magicians who possess the Dream Owl usually use it to create an Eternity existing prop in their dreams, such as a pen or a spinning top.
This allows the dreamer to realize that they are dreaming and has more time.
But for Basil, after Finda became the Dream Owl, he could completely make cards.
Then continuously summon Dream Owl, let them enter the dream, and then bring out [Dream Fragment].
With countless Dream Fragment, he could create an Eternity Dream Realm.
Then, the dreams that come and go in cycles are linked together to become the dream deities of the Harry world.
To achieve this, the first thing to master is the magic of extracting dreams.
This is another long passage.
Fortunately, this is the original version.
For a magician with Finger Magic, all that's needed is enough emotion and a spell.
Another glass bottle holds the liquid that has solidified after the dream was extracted.
It won't take three years.
As long as you keep feeding the snowy owl the condensed essence of dreams, you can use the magic of the world's emotions to permeate its body.
It only takes 3 months to transform a snowy owl into Dream Owl.
Today is the day when Basil and the other students are given magic and a ceremony is held.
With a snap.
Basil closed the book.
He stood up.
Two days have passed since the animal companion class.
Madison and Sophie have been arguing for the past two days.
The reason is that yesterday morning, in the community space, he and Sophie had sex.
Madison appears, posing as a victim, and has relations with Basil in front of Sophie.
All of this can happen.
Sophie genuinely believed she was the first, and she still felt somewhat guilty towards Madison, the leader of her group.
In addition, she ran away without permission.
Moreover, this is a consciousness entity.
It's like a dream.
But first, he had to have a meal.
It's 6 o'clock, at the restaurant.
Basil, who had just come out of the library, walked in with Beatrix by the waist.
Just like the branch campuses.
The restaurant is shared by both the good and evil houses.
But Basil always felt that this was Raphael's deliberate scheme.
The atmosphere at the evil academy was chaotic. They jumped around and laughed loudly while eating, playing with their food, throwing it at each other as if it were a weapon, using plates as shields and forks as swords.
The atmosphere at the Hall of Virtue was far too formal. They even used several different knives and forks just to cut the steak.
No wonder students from both the Hall of Virtue and evil schools always felt that good and evil were incompatible.
In their view, everything in the restaurant was proof enough.
This further fueled their mutual dislike for each other.
