Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes
Chapter 72 - 72 72 The Qualities of a Scholar

72: Chapter 72 The Qualities of a Scholar 72: Chapter 72 The Qualities of a Scholar “The initiation ceremony for the Mysterious System is passed?

No need to climb to the top of the tower?”

After reading the glowing text in the air, Anvis was stunned for a moment, and immediately took out three metal plates to use.

But then, he suddenly noticed a problem.

Wait, the Identity Card…

seems to be in the ring!

Startled, he subconsciously connected to the ring space, and then he sighed in relief, the restrictions in the space had been lifted here.

He hurriedly took out the Identity Card and attached the three metal plates onto it in sequence.

The three metal plates turned into light and dissipated, and at the same time, a prompt for upgraded access to the Mysterious Great Library came from the Identity Card.

Since Anvis chose Mysticism as his Main School, he originally had Level One access to the Great Library.

After rising three levels, his access has now reached Level Four, which is already sufficient for him to borrow most of the ‘Collection’ in the outer sections of the library.

A minute quickly passed, and the text in the air suddenly emitted a dazzling Radiance!

All the characters gathered together, forming a white Light Ball, which then instantly expanded, engulfing Anvis’s figure within it—

.….….

“Welcome to Pamir Mysterious and Relics Academy!”

“Congratulations, new student!

You are the first this year to pass through the academy’s initiation ceremony.”

“Clap clap clap clap clap…”

Anvis blinked, and when he could see his surroundings clearly again, he found himself inside a giant Array at the top of the tower.

Dozens of older students dressed in academy uniforms gathered to one side, and upon seeing Anvis’s figure appear, many of them spontaneously began to applaud, sincerely admiring his performance in the initiation ceremony.

“Hello, I am Anvis, a First Rank Magician.”

Facing the enthusiastic crowd, Anvis switched smoothly to a smile he had practiced countless times in etiquette class, and briefly introduced himself.

Since some new students come from common backgrounds, to emphasize the ethos of equality in identity at Pamir Academy, it is stipulated:

During self-introductions, new students should only introduce their names, not needing to mention their surnames.

After getting accustomed, harboring their respective thoughts, everyone’s gaze gathered once more on the projection.

Anvis cast a ‘curious’ glance at the Crystal Ball.

“That is a Magic Shadow Crystal Ball, the current situation of all new students climbing the tower is displayed in it.”

Noticing the gaze of this unusual new student, the blue-haired girl who had asked questions earlier smiled warmly at Anvis and took the initiative to explain.

“Those two entered before you, but they have yet to pass the challenges in the Reality Mirror.”

At this moment, the Crystal Ball lit up slightly, and a new projection appeared in midair.

A young man with light gray short hair was glancing around curiously at the entrance to the high tower, seeming somewhat surprised by the scene before him.

Realizing something was amiss, this young man also attempted to exit the tower, eventually encountering the same awkward situation as Anvis.

Anvis watched the young man, observing him try various methods to open the main door initially, until realizing it was futile and finally resigning himself to venture deeper into the tower.

All this brought some novelty to him, although he had experienced the initiation ceremony of the Transformation School in his previous life, the essence of the two was entirely different.

In the annual initiation ceremony of the Transformation branch, the upperclassmen would use Transformation Spells to create a huge Spell maze and set many non-lethal Magic Traps within it.

Each year’s maze and traps differed, and if a new student successfully exited the maze, or solved several Transformation puzzles within the maze, they could receive various rewards.

This year, other than Anvis, the newcomers from the Mysterious System are all comparatively ordinary in strength.

Almost another Magic Time passed before the second newcomer passed the test and appeared in the Array.

Then came the third and fourth newcomers.

After all the newcomers had gathered, the central Array lit up once again, and a girl brimming with the aura of books appeared amidst it.

She was dressed in a black robe with silver trim, had silver hair and black eyes, and her figure was gracefully slender.

Perched on her delicate nose was a pair of fine silver-wire round glasses, and she held a thick ancient book exuding a mysterious aura in her embrace.

“Val, Pekara, Anvis, Lorna—”

The girl opened the thick book she was holding, glanced at a certain page, then looked up at the four of them with a voice as if she had just awoken from sleep, calling out the names of the four newcomers.

“Let me introduce myself.

I am your mentor, Nancy Campbell, a Seventh Rank Mysterious Scholar.”

Upon hearing the girl’s words, the four hurriedly bowed.

“I have watched your ascent up the tower.

It was quite good, especially Anvis.

I started paying attention to your actions from the moment you broke through the Illusion Dream Rune and arrived in front of the main door to the library.”

After giving Anvis a look, Nancy lowered her head again and turned her gaze back to the thick book in her hand.

“From pushing open the main door by resisting the fear force field, quickly discerning the nature of the dream and expelling it, keenly detecting possible hidden books and finding them, and eventually escaping the Mirror Space, all in less than a Magic Time, very good.”

When Nancy finished speaking, the other three newcomers immediately looked at Anvis with curiosity, and he smiled back and nodded at them.

“Additionally, Lorna also performed very well.

Although she couldn’t overcome the challenge of the Curiosities Exhibition Room, being able to decisively abandon pushing open the door and instead choosing another path is equally rare.”

Lorna is the one among them with light green short hair, green eyes, and a petite and endearing figure, carrying an aura of First Rank Strength, seemingly possessing some kind of Bloodline as well.

Upon receiving Nancy’s praise, Lorna’s cheeks turned slightly red, her delicate hands pinching at the deep blue hem of her uniform, as she shyly smiled.

“Remember, although curiosity is the most precious quality of a Mysterious Scholar,

without a cool judgment, extensive knowledge, and adequate strength to support it, curiosity more often than not will only lead to destruction.”

Nancy nodded at her and then faced everyone, speaking solemnly.

The next moment, she slightly lowered her head to look at the ancient book, flipping it to the next page.

“According to the welcoming ceremony rules of Pamir Mysterious and Relics Academy, Anvis’s assessment is perfect, Lorna’s assessment is excellent, Waka and Pekara are assessed as average.”

“Now, it’s the time for reward distribution.”

As she spoke, Nancy closed the ancient book, and with a light wave of her slender hand, more than a dozen items instantly appeared in the air in front of everyone.

“These are Magic Items produced from the relics.”

Still in a voice as if she had just woken up, the young mentor explained to the four.

“They were previously kept in the exhibition room, now as rewards for the welcoming ceremony, each of you may choose one.”

“The order of selection is determined by your scores.

Those with higher scores have the priority to choose.

If scores are the same, then it’s decided by passage time.”

“First up, Anvis.”

Under the somewhat envious gaze of the other three, Anvis slowly stepped forward, meticulously examining each item hovering in mid-air.

An old Elf style Magic Hat, an ancient stone slate engraved with strange Runes, a seemingly ordinary decorative sword, a silver pendant with an odd five-pointed star shape, a bizarre stone figurine…

In magic vision, each of them possessed magic, but their strength was all very weak.
