The First Female Duke

Chapter 15

Almost everyone who was waiting had their windows open, their eyes glued to the place.

It was then that they saw, along with Young Master Clark, another young girl stepping out of the car (Crowd: ????). , but seeing that the young girl automatically stood behind the one at the beginning, the crowd reacted that she should be the companion of the young girl at the beginning.

Young Master Clark said something to the young girl, the young girl looks exquisite, but also did not give Young Master Clark a good face, and in the end, she even left Young Master Clark, and walked away alone.

Crowd:!

It goes without saying that Young Master Clarke's expression was tightly pursed, his lips pursed, his handsome face expressionless, and it was estimated that if anyone ungrateful messed with him at this moment, he would be able to be sprayed with his blood in the next second.

The crowd couldn't help but speculate, who is this little girl that has the guts to annoy young master Clark, the key is that young master Clark hasn't really done anything to her? Could it be that it was his sister? No, I haven't heard when the Clark family got a girl.

Edith wasn't in the best of moods at the moment, who would be happy to be subjected to that young master's cold face early in the morning, and she hadn't offended him, so she just stopped serving him.

Focusing on the boredom, Edith walked for a while before she cared to survey this Aisdas thunderous magic noble school, just now when she was outside she noticed that the academy's walls are very high, very high, there is a hidden fluctuation of magical power, at that time she guessed that Sofia would not be small, but she came in and was shocked by everything in front of her.

The thick city wall seemed to isolate two worlds, the outside of the wall was a bustling street, while coming to the inside, the entrance was a tall mountain range.

--Who would have thought that Sophia would occupy an entire mountain!

At the foot of the mountain was a dense forest, and as far as the eye could see, there were countless clusters of buildings on that near-by mountain.

As for why she couldn't see it when she was on the street, Edith thought of the magic fluctuation she sensed at that time, it should be the effect of the boundary.

Occupying a mountain and the forest underneath it, and building countless school buildings on the mountain, Sophia's behavior could undoubtedly be called wealthy, but at the moment Edith couldn't be bothered to think about that, her mind was only thinking about one thing right now.

--The carriage is not given to drive in, such a big mountain, also separated by the forest, how are they going to get over?

Penny was thinking with Edith at the moment, "How do we get up there, miss?"

Her shock was greater than Edith's. From the beginning with Taggart, then Luxembourg, and now Sophia, it seemed like her insight was always shallow.

Edith frowned, but she wasn't in a hurry, the school must have had a reason for designing it this way - students weren't expected to walk into the auditorium for the new student ceremony, Edith roughly calculated that if that was the case then she wouldn't be attending the ceremony, and she probably wouldn't be able to make it around the forest at the foot of the mountain.

"There's no need to rush, someone should be picking us up." Edith said with certainty, she stood with Penny, looking a little more petite than Penny.

Sure enough, just as Edith said these words, a "carriage" slowly came out of the forest, it was not accurate to say it was a carriage, because the animal pulling the carriage was not a horse, it had four slender hooves, snow-white fur, and the most noticeable thing was that there was only one horn on its head.

Penny's eyes widened as she murmured, "A unicorn?"

Edith froze, her mind making huge waves, unicorns?

She had once flipped through a whole set of "Beasts Illustrated" in the family library, which recorded most of the species of beasts that had been discovered in Estara, and she dared to swear on the honor of the Willey family that there had never been a creature called "unicorn" in Estara.

She also knew that unicorns came from the western myths and legends of her previous life.

Penny blurts out unicorns off the top of her head, which means that she's surprisingly ......

Edith hid the shock in her eyes, looked at Penny and said:

"A unicorn? Isn't that a snow goat?"

The snow goat was a magical beast that ran quickly and had a more docile character.

Penny just said out loud when she regretted, she also remembered, this world does not have what unicorn, at this time in the face of Edith's puzzled eyes, her heart and soul, hastily explained:

"It's an animal described in a kind of mythological story I read before, it said that it only had one horn, at that time I was very impressed, when I saw it today I thought the legendary animal was real!" She smiled, trying to look natural.

Edith let out an oh, as if she believed it, she withdrew her gaze and said:

"I think the creature in that mythological story you were reading was borrowed from a snow goat!"

Hearing that Edith's tone wasn't any different from usual, Penny was greatly relieved; there were so many things she didn't know about this world that she made up her mind that she should never open her mouth carelessly in the future.

Lost in thought, Penny didn't notice Edith's complicated look - she had been raised single-handedly by Paulina, if she wanted to hide her emotions, not to say it would work on everyone, but bluffing a Penny would still be simple.

The driver of the car took a few steps up to Edith.

"Honorable ladies," he said with a curtsy, "I will be taking you into Sophia next."

It was clear from the salute he made that this was a commoner, Edith asked with a slight smile:

"Isn't this Sofia?"

The driver saw Edith's smile and became even more respectful as he explained, "This is the Levin Forest, which is sort of the outskirts of Sophia."

He opened the door to the cart, lowered the pedals, and reached down to help Edith into the cart, waiting until both she and Penny were sitting smoothly in the cart and the snow goat spread its hooves and began to run before Edith asked:

"Levin Woods is supposed to be protected." Edith used a question, but her tone was certain.

"Your acumen takes my breath away, it does." The coachman, who sat in the front driver's seat with a whip in his hand, paused, then added, "You may call me Old Shire."

"Old Char?" Edith smiled as she looked at the trees flashing by on either side and said, "Do you know where we're going?"

Old Char said calmly, "Of course, at this time of year, Old Char welcomes many new students like you to the auditorium at the top of the hill."

Penny's attention was still focused on that cool unicorn-like magical beast, she pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment before asking:

"Are all the snow goats Sophia uses to transport her students?"

Knowing that this was a magical beast, not an ordinary animal, she didn't even react at first, it was evident that this kind of thing was rare, thinking of this Penny couldn't help but look at Edith's delicate side face, so was it really the family that limited one's vision? Obviously she was also a noble in her life, but she still couldn't recognize this kind of magical beast in one bite like Edith.

Old Char waved an empty whip before answering:

"Yes, at least all the way from the school gates through Levin Woods to the bottom of the hill."

Penny smacked her lips and just thought that Sophia really was too rich.

Edith faintly smiled, but in her heart, she thought, Sophia is rich and generous, there is no need to doubt, but the snow goat well ...... she looked to the trees on both sides, the Levin forest is probably the least lack of this kind of magical beasts, this is also considered to be the best use of things.

Wraiths run up after all different from ordinary animals, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, seems to be a long way surprisingly did not spend too much time - at least Edith did not wait impatiently.

When the car stopped, Old Char helped Edith out of the car, and when he was arranging the hem of Edith's skirt, Edith gave him two gold coins. When Old Char saw the gold coins, a simple smile finally appeared on his wrinkled face, he stuffed the gold coins into his pocket and then respectfully said, "Old Char can only send the two young ladies here" he pointed in a direction, "East of the square is the auditorium."

The snow goat hissed softly and carried Old Char back along the road, Edith looked ahead, it was a square, the white marble tiles made it look wide and holy.

In front of an arched palace-like building, Edith knew that should be the auditorium, the annual new student ceremony would be held here.

One step ahead of Edith, Bridges had already taken his seat in the auditorium, he had a gloomy face, with four big words written all over his body, "Don't mess with me".

In the seat next to him sat two boys, one of whom was his chaperone.

"Emi," the blonde boy took a seat to the side - one slightly away from Bridges, "did this young master get goat dung on his face?" He lowered his voice, as if so Bridges wouldn't hear him.

Emi pushed up his glasses, remembering today's scene at the school gates, and answered honestly, "I don't think so."

"Then why does he have a constipated look on his face." Staring into Emi's odd eyes, Lexi cleared her look and said righteously, "Ahem, I mean, he looks pretty worried."

Emi gave him a sympathetic look and pointed behind him, "I think you should worry about yourself first."

Lexi stiffened and turned her head sideways; Bridges hadn't looked at him for a second and was rubbing his sword with fascination and concentration, the power of that sword Lexi knew only too well.

"Lexi, it's been a long time since we've competed." Master Clark's voice was too soft for words.

Lexi's sweaty hairs stood on end, and he leapt out of his seat in a flash, skirting around Emmy and running to a place where he was at least five seats away from Bridges, wary:

"Fighting is forbidden in the auditorium."

Bridges looked at him with sunken eyes and was just about to speak when two men walked in the doorway of the auditorium, and he gave a start, his face hardening as he took a better look.

Lexi noticed that Bridges' eyes were all wrong, alarm bells rang in his heart, thinking today this young master's temper is so bad, he didn't do anything ah, is the little life to be accounted for here.

Emmy did see clearly that one of the two heroines who came in was not the one who had left Bridges behind at the door this morning, and he helplessly pulled Lexi a hand.

"Just shut up!" The eyeless fool.

Lexi sat down heartily, only to realize that it wasn't him Bridges was staring at, but a - doll-like, pretty girl?

Edith's eyes wavered at the ornate decor of the auditorium as she entered, and she looked around, concluding that the inside of this auditorium was one large circular stepped classroom - the deluxe top version.

Bewildered as to where to sit, she ended up feeling a sudden sharp jolt of vision, and Edith looked over just in time to meet Young Master Clark's handsome face.

Edith gave a start, thinking, "Are you afraid of me because you're glaring at me? With a twist of her neck, she averted her gaze.

Lexi shivered and suddenly the temperature around her dropped two degrees.

Someone was waving at her in the distance, and Edith squinted a glance, then smiled.

It was Elena.

Elena arrived before Edith, she had been watching the direction of the auditorium doors for a long time, and she noticed Edith as soon as she came in, but it turned out that the man didn't notice her even after she waved half a dozen times.

Edith smiled and walked over to her, Elena grumbled as she gave her the seat next to her:

"I'm going to swing my hand off if you don't see it."

"When did it arrive?"

Elena puckered her lips and saw Penny salute her and nodded softly, "A little before you."

Edith looked over to the big old clock in the middle of the auditorium, "The ceremony is about to start." She didn't really know what the ceremony was about, but from experience it was pretty much the same old thing, the principal's speech, encouraging the new students and all that.

But upon seeing an odd and familiar giant crystal placed in the center of the auditorium, Edith realized that things weren't as simple as she thought.

"A magic tester." Edith said in amazement, "With this thing sitting here, do we have to take another test in front of the whole school?"

Elena boredly curls her fingers through her red hair and says, "Obviously, it seems that old man Headmaster isn't comfortable with our test results and wants to check them again himself!"

Edith also understood the school's approach after careful thought:

"There's probably no better way to introduce new students than a public magic test, and by the way, it's a good way to check if there's anyone in the middle who's muddling through."

Elena was noncommittal, still resenting the old man, the principal, for his trouble.

Penny sat next to Edith and didn't interrupt.

No matter what world, commencement was always boring and sleepy, and as Edith swallowed her third yawn, she finally heard the dean above her call her name.

"Edith. Willey."

About as loud as the last name was, the auditorium was slightly more boisterous, and all eyes looked over.

Edith stood up quite calmly and walked from her seat to the center of the auditorium.

She scanned the magic tester, unlike the attribute-less magic stones used in the testers at home and in Violet's, Sophia had all the attributes in one set, and Edith's face didn't change, but she mentally spat out how rich she was.

Calmly placing her hand on the magic stone and injecting it with magic power, Edith knew that there was no need to question the result.

--The red and yellow magic stones lit up with a dazzling light without surprise, precise, unquestionable.

The serious dean finally showed a rare smile as he spoke loudly:

"Fire and light dual system magic talent, magic power value, 92."

The roof of the auditorium seemed to have been shaken by the dean's words, this young lady of the Villey family was actually a dual system magic talent, one of them was also a light system, and most of all, the magic power value had reached over 90.

Sophia never lacked geniuses, but just like there was never a lack of comparisons between people, geniuses were also different from each other.

Elena sat in her seat, looking a little more excited than Edith, her eyes shining brightly, her face flushed red, as if she had already seen the bright future of holding Edith's thighs and being a bully in Sofia.

Penny pursed her lips to hide the shock in her eyes, her mother had long told her that Ms. Willey's talent is outstanding, but hearing is far less direct than observing directly.

The new students sat in the front, while the older students sat further back.

Lexi looked at the little girl in the center of the auditorium who was being watched by the crowd, so excited that she had long forgotten what had just happened, and he turned his head to talk to Bridges:

"Hey, so that's the Willey family's young lady, I mean, she's kinda awesome isn't she?"

Emi, who was sitting on the sidelines, covered her face in intolerance, deeply worried about her companion's intelligence.

And Young Master Clark finally twisted his head, his black eyes cold and silent as he looked at Lexi, giving him a look that made his body hairy before he spoke slowly:

"No one will take you for a dummy if you don't speak."

After saying that, she turned her head, as if she had made up her mind never to say a word to him again today-not a word.

Lexi twisted her head bitterly and asked Emi:

"Do you think I've offended him somewhere? He hasn't given me a good look since this morning!"

Emi calmly replied, "Yes."

That little girl had just gotten under Master Clark's skin this morning, and you twisted your head and complimented her on her prowess.

Isn't that like poking him in the lungs? You can't expect him to give you a good look.

--Master Clarke is so twisted and petty.

Unfortunately, Lexi, the dumbass, could never see it.
