Fake Princess
CHAPTER 39
Surprisingly, that feeling also applies to myself. Once again I changed from the self I knew before. & I don't believe in new people.
I have magic power. Along the way to the city, I kept clenching my hands on my lap for fear of unleashing a power I could not control.
Now all my hopes rest on the wizard campus. Surely they will realize that I am putting myself at risk and the people around me, and are willing to accept me. & if that doesn't work out to arouse them, I can pay them with the kamtong of gold hidden at the bottom of my coffin.
It felt like a long time until I finally managed to calm my mind that kept spinning, and I finally fell asleep. Tomorrow, I say in my heart when I fall asleep, I will start living my life.
“ I'm sorry, but I really can't do anything.”
The blue-robed receiving officer looked at me, his eyes soft, then lowered his head and deliberately sorted through some of the paper on the table in front of him. Moments later, the man raised his head again and looked shocked when he saw me still sitting there.
I didn't move because I felt shaken. That morning I dressed as neatly as possible, choosing the best dress I could bring from the palace; a long-sleeved red dress like a bell. I braided my hair carefully around my head and covered it with a dark veil. Not to dispel the wind, even a slow gust of wind will make my hair float to the front of the face, but as a disguise effort. At that time I walked from the CP inn to the magician campus and asked to be met with someone to discuss registration at this place.
Now I found myself holding the veil in fear as I said,
“ Are you sure? I mean, I know I'm a little old, but I just found out that I have magic powers. I turned a plant into ash & scorched the grass...”.
“ That's what you said,” interrupted the receiving officer in his slow voice, Miss.”.
“ Muller,” I remind him.
His tone rose at the end of the sentence, as if waiting for me to do it. When I didn't do it, the man put his shoulders together.
“ Well, then you must understand that I can't do anything.”
My chest felt tight, as if there was an iron rope clamping down on it.
“ But there must be a way. I have a little money, the amount is not enough for a whole year, but I will give it all to you. & I can..
I looked around looking for something.
” I can promise to pay the cost later.”
This time the man laughed. “ Really, we can't accept that kind of promise from everyone who comes here. We already have enough magicians to do all the magic tasks needed to run this campus, & enough servants to do anything else. While the request to pay the fee later, you can reach whatever level you can reach, his tone” blatantly shows that according to him I will never make it past whatever level happens ..” & disappear just like that.”
“ But I won't do it. Please, I have to learn to control it.”
The reception officer looked at me with a cold gaze and said, His slow tone sounds very firm, “ Then I suggest you go to Wenth or Farvasee. I know they're not very selective about students. Good day.”
