The bell signaling the end of class had already rung for a while and the other students had already left their seats. They either went outside to relax or gathered in groups of twos and threes to chat.
Each class at Baron Rickto Magic Academy lasted an hour and a half, so the break between classes was a bit longer. It was around twenty minutes, so of course the students had to seize this time to relax.
Only Vivian was an exception.
Other than going to the bathroom, Vivian did not leave her desk at all. She had her head down the entire time, seriously looking over the notes she had just taken from class. She read them over and over again, trying to firmly engrave the knowledge in her mind and try her best to understand it.
After being sent to this academy by Xu Yi, Vivian had always been like this, desperately studying.
Because her parents were slaves, Vivian was born as a slave. So in the fourteen years before Xu Yi bought her, Vivian had always lived as a slave.
Although Viscount Leslie was much friendlier to his slaves compared to the other nobles, slaves were still slaves. The so called friendliness was only limited to not being easily abused or killed. Of course it was impossible for Vivian to receive an education.
After changing to Xu Yi as her master, Vivian found that her life had greatly changed. Not only did she not have to worry about food and sleep, she only had to do some simple chores.
Moreover, Xu Yi's attitude towards slaves was even better than Viscount Leslie's by several times.
After Vivian knew that she had been bought by Xu Yi, she had already prepared her heart. She thought that Xu Yi was like other people with special tastes, liking her body that hadn't grown at all.
However, Xu Yi had lived with her for two months, but he hadn't touched her once, not to mention doing anything to her.
This made Vivian feel a bit happy, but also a bit disappointed.
She had finally met a master as good as Xu Yi. If he really wanted her body, perhaps he wouldn't sell her to anyone else in the future, right?
Of course, this wasn't certain. Vivian had heard of some people who bought female slaves and after they were tired of playing with them, they would sell them to the lowest prostitutes, accepting a cruel fate.
But no matter what, the nervous Vivian never thought that Xu Yi would actually let her go to school.
Going to school, for Vivian, this was something that she had been filled with hope for, but she had to give up in the end because of the ruthless reality.
She knew that she was just a lowly slave. In the Sines, even normal citizens couldn't receive an education, not to mention a lowly slave like her that no one cared about even if she died.
So when she heard Xu Yi ask her if she wanted to go to school, she was stunned for a while. but after confirming it again and again, she happily agreed.
In the blink of an eye, Vivian had already been studying at Baron Rickto Magic Academy for more than a month.
Although the Baron Rickto Magic Magic school was called magic, it was not only it, it was also called magic.
At first, this school was founded by Baron Rickto to specially teach magic, but after several hundred years of development, this school had become the largest comprehensive school in Banta City.
Other than teaching magic, they also taught all kinds of basic knowledge like languages, history, culture, and even painting.
Because Vivian had never received an education before, Xu Yi first enrolled her in a basic language class, having her learn the basics of reading and writing.
Other than this, he also enrolled her in a painting class.
Although Vivian had never received an education, her intelligence wasn't weak. Adding in her incomparable thirst for knowledge, in just a short month, she had learned how to read and write in almost every language.
Even if she couldn't understand everything, there was no problem with some basic reading.
Compared to the language class, Vivian's performance in the painting class could be considered stunning.
Xu Yi found that Vivian had talent in painting from the paintings she drew in her free time. After coming to the Baron Rickto Magic Academy, her talent instantly exploded under the guidance of the painting teacher.
In just a short week, Vivian had already conquered the teacher, making the strict painting teacher call her a genius artist that hadn't been seen in several decades.
The current Vivian was already a bit famous in the Baron Rickto Magic Academy because of her strong talent in painting.
It was a pity that this fame didn't bring her many benefits, rather it brought her some trouble.
After finishing her revision, Vivian left the language classroom. When she was on the way to the painting classroom, she was stopped by three people.
"Hey, dear miss Vivian, can you give me the honour of having dinner with me tonight?"
The young boy in the middle of the three looked at Vivian and spoke in a very glib tone.
Vivian looked at him and recognized that he was Enrique from the magic department.
"I'm sorry, I don't have time tonight." Vivian flatly refused.
Ever since he saw Vivian in the painting class and witnessed Vivian's strong talent in painting, Enrique seemed to have taken a fancy to Vivian and started to pursue her.
However, Vivian felt that she had finally obtained a precious learning opportunity, so how could she waste her time on dating Enrique? So no matter what Enrique asked, Vivian directly refused and didn't give him any chance.
"It doesn't matter if you don't have time tonight, but you'll have time tomorrow, right?" Enrique didn't seem to want to give up.
"I don't have time tomorrow either." Vivian shook her head again and seriously said to Enrique, "Can you please give up?"
After spending so much time with Xu Yi and being influenced by Xu Yi, Vivian was no longer as timid as before and dared to speak her mind.
Enrique's face changed. He didn't think that Vivian would reject him so straightforwardly and without leaving any room for negotiation.
In front of his two friends, Enrique suddenly felt very embarrassed and couldn't help but speak in a cold voice.
"Miss Vivian, I just want to have a meal with you and chat with you, you don't have to be so heartless, right?"
Vivian blinked, not quite understanding Enrique's meaning.
After all, she was only a little girl who wasn't even fifteen years old, and because she had been living the life of a slave, she wasn't very proficient in the ways of the world and couldn't understand the boring self-esteem of this little boy.
However, her attitude angered Enrique even more.
Enrique's face sank. He thought for a moment and suddenly grabbed Vivian's arm and said in a deep voice, "I'm telling you, whether you're willing or not, you have to agree today!
Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite! "
Seeing Enrique's two companions come over, Vivian suddenly thought of when she was Viscount Leslie's subordinate and when she was beaten by the guards for doing something wrong. Her face instantly filled with fear and her body began to tremble.
Seeing Vivian reveal a look of fear, Enrique gave a proud laugh and prepared to pull Vivian out of the school.
How could Vivian's strength compare to Enrique's? Although she wasn't willing, she couldn't help being pulled by him.
If it was any other girl, they would definitely be screaming for help. However, Vivian had been a slave since she was young and was already used to her low status, used to being bullied by others. Although her heart and body were very resistant, she didn't have any thoughts of asking for help.
Only in her heart, there was a cry that sounded.
"Master, save me!"
Enrique, who was dragging Vivian along, suddenly stopped in his tracks as a figure appeared in front of him.
"Hey, uncle, do you want to meddle in other people's business?
Let me tell you, it's best if you don't ….. "Enrique had only said half of his words when a fireball suddenly flew at him.
Enrique was scared and quickly let go of Vivian's hand as he raised a water shield in front of him.
It had to be said, Enrique's magic level wasn't bad. In this kind of situation, he could actually raise a water shield.
Although this fireball didn't seem like anything special, it was strangely strong. Enrique's water shield was instantly broken and the fireball exploded on his chest, sending him flying.
Enrique had just fallen to the ground when another ball of water fell down. It extinguished the flames on his chest and also made his entire body ice cold.
It was already the beginning of November, and it was already slightly cold in early winter. Now that his entire body was soaked in cold water, he naturally felt a wave of extreme cold. Enrique, who had almost fainted from the bombardment of the fireball, woke up from the cold.
Seeing that person walk in front of him and look down at him, Enrique's heart was filled with shock and fear as he hurriedly shouted, "You dare hit me!
Do you know who my father is?
If you dare to do this to me, do you believe that I'll get my father to find someone to beat you into a cripple!
“
Xu Yi lowered his head to look at Enrique who had some of his hair burned off by the fireball and was soaked in water. He couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
"Oh?
Who's your father?
Tell me. "
"My ….. My father is the chairman of the Falcao Chamber of Commerce!
Let me tell you, I know a lot of powerful magicians, any one of them can beat you into a cripple! "Speaking of his father, Enrique seemed to have suddenly gained courage.
"Since it's chairman Morgan's son, then it's really hard to deal with ….." Xu Yi made a difficult expression.
Enrique thought he was afraid, so he jumped up from the ground and pointed at Xu Yi as he arrogantly said, "How about it?
Now you know how to be afraid?
Humph!
Let me tell you, since you made me like this, don't think I'll let you off.
Just you wait, I'll definitely tell my father about this and you'll get it! "
Xu Yi nodded his head in praise, "Not bad, you know you can't beat me so you want to ask your father for help.
I originally wanted to take care of you, but it's a pity that I can't do it because of chairman Morgan's face.
No matter what, chairman Morgan said that we're good friends. Making a move on the son of a good friend is a bit like bullying the young. "
Enrique was stunned. Hearing this person's tone, it seemed like he was an old acquaintance of his father?
His father even said that they were good friends?
If it was like this, then it would be bad. To be called an old friend by his father, it would normally be someone who had business dealings with him.
His father viewed the benefits of the company as more important than anything else. If he told his father about what happened today, not only would his father help him get revenge, he might even be taught a lesson by his father.
"You ….. Who are you?" Enrique hesitated a bit and finally couldn't help asking.
"Not bad, you finally know to ask for my name." Xu Yi grinned.
"Listen well, I'm called Xu Yi, the chairman of the New Flyer."
Enrique's face turned ashen.
