cal world.Besides understanding the situation and intelligence of this world.Then, everyone would surely be eager to explore their talents or try learning magic.But Ranch didn't.He wants to learn law....Chapter 7: Ranchi Understands Admission

The grandfather clock in the study ticked softly, its gears whirring audibly.

The scent of aged books, emanating from the intricately carved bookshelf in the corner, lingered in the air.

Looking at the magic lamp on the table, emitting a warm, amber glow, Noah took off his glasses, closed his eyes, and his furrowed brows gradually relaxed.

Regardless of whether Ranch played it well or not, at least Ranch's slow and steady attitude gave him comfort.

"But Father, before I take the exam, I need some money. Could you make sure I have enough funds for these next three months"

Just when Noah thought Lance was about to leave, Lance's voice caused him to open his eyes again.

What do you want to do

Noel asked cautiously.

It seems suspicious that Lan Qi wants to swindle as much money as possible before the entrance exam and have a final spree.

"Making magical cards requires a lot of money for materials, and I'll also need to hire a suitable teacher."

Lance's expression and voice were still so calm.

Not at all like lying.

He was indeed speaking the truth.

Because after he finished reading the legal code, he was going to start researching magic cards.

Can you do magic cards

Noah exclaimed in surprise.

Rance didn't answer right away this time.

Actually, I still don't know.

He needs a perfect pitch to gain his father's trust and win him over to invest wholeheartedly.

However, at this time,

I assure you, Master, he will make excellent magic cards.

The butler, who had been standing behind Noah the whole time, spoke up.

He bent down slightly and said to Noé at his side,

If you could see the painting in the young master's room, you would certainly stop worrying about him.

"Oh"

Noah, hearing this, turned his head to look at the butler.

He was surprised by the butler's words, and soon reacted with delight.

Then he looked at Lance with a newfound interest.

"Ranch, have you started painting again recently Since Hans praised it so highly, it must be a pretty good painting."

Hans is the name of the butler, but because those before him rarely called him by his name, Ranchi followed their custom and only referred to the butler as "you" when communicating with him.

>More than...

The butler smiled and shook his head.

It seems the old master hasn't realized yet what level the young master's paintings have reached.

It's clear to anyone that Noah was just talking down to her like a child.

"Hans has always been kind to me; he's just being dramatic."

Lan Chi only briefly pursed his lips and interrupted the butler before he could finish.

That portrait of Talia hanging in her bedroom is best left unseen by Noah.

Otherwise, if Noah happened to meet Talya in town, there could be some ridiculous misunderstandings.

"That's interesting."

Noah heard this and didn't take it to heart.

The only thing that surprised Noé was Lance's humility.

Generally speaking, Lanci should seize this opportunity to brag about their own talents and seek investment.

After hearing Lance's words, the butler didn't intend to say anything more.

He smiled enigmatically and retreated behind Noah.

"Alright, I hope you pass the blockchain academy exam. Hans..."

Noah spoke in a sighing tone, offering polite encouragement to Lance. Then he instructed Hans, the butler, to provide Lance with the necessary funds for his expenses.

That's because, seeing as it was the old housekeeper's face and Ranch's good attitude today, Noel would have agreed to Ranch's request so readily.

Anyway, this foolish son has already received quite a bit of money.

> I hope he'll grow up soon. May the Goddess bless him.

If he were not putting on a show today, but truly this composed, steady, humble and polite, what a good thing that would be.

……

As night deepened, the wide corridor on the second floor of the mansion was softly lit by wall lamps, casting a peaceful and serene ambiance over the entire house.

Most of the servants in the house had finished their work for the day and gone to rest.

Of course, there are also maids who haven't finished work yet.

As soon as Lance pushed open the study door, he found a maid waiting outside.

The kind and empathetic maid named Francine, wasn't as afraid of working for them compared to the other servants.

Lancy discovered that it seemed only she and the butler in the household were willing to treat her seriously.

After a brief polite greeting.

"Young Master, are you sure you're not fooling the old master"

Francine followed Lance out of the study with some apprehension, asking softly beside him.

She heard the conversation from the study just now and knew very well how Ranchi had spent every day before.

The entrance exam for the Chainmail Academy includes written exams in a variety of subjects, such as Kingdom Arithmetic, Alchemy, Materials Processing, Basic Magical Engineering, and Chainmail Principles.

Even if Lance hired the best teachers right now and studied desperately, he wouldn't be able to catch up.

Just a mere entrance exam.

Lanci smiled softly and closed his eyes, his composed expression seemed utterly unconcerned by the exam's difficulty and he showed no sign of wanting to intensify his study.

"Uh..."

Seeing this, Fran clearly doubted if Lance had truly given up from this moment on, choosing to simply embrace the final revelry.

However, she also knew that even if Lance failed to get into school, he wouldn't be scolded at home or end up on the streets of the capital city sleeping in a makeshift bed.

The young master can thrive and be flexible in the capital.

Selling paintings alone can definitely make a lot of money.

Don't worry, I'll study the exam rules tonight.

Lance felt the maid's anxiety, and chuckled softly. His tone was reassuring as he added, his eyes clear like when facing a legal code.

That's good then…

"Huh Exam rules"

Francine was startled.

She always felt there was something more to what Ranch said.

Although it's definitely a good habit to carefully read the exam instructions beforehand...

But what is there to study about the entrance exam rules of Blockchain Academy

Soon, Lance quickened his pace towards the bedroom after bidding farewell, leaving the perplexed maid with a troubled expression in the hallway.

……

Go back to the bedroom and close the door.

Lanrch fetched the admissions guide for the Icteria Academy from the bookshelf.

He came to the desk, pulled up a chair and sat down leisurely. He slowly picked up his pen, gazed at the book in his hand, and began planning out his schedule for the next three months.

He was serious about getting into school.

He did promise his father he would succeed in getting admitted.

But he didn't say which department he wanted to enroll in.

Although I'm not a fighter by nature and prefer to resolve conflicts peacefully... But if it truly comes down to it, and I'm prepared, I don't think I'd lose.

Lancelot was flipping through the admission brochure of Ecthelion Academy, muttering to himself.

This academy has the Chainlink Academy and the Magic Engineering Academy, which focus on theoretical research and reserve support, and are difficult to pass quickly.

Of course, there are also academies like the Academy of Sages and the Knights' Academy that focus more on direct combat and tactical application.

Lanche's method is very simple.

That is, admission by curve.

Then he can just change his application from the Gold Department to another department.

Although the two examination points of the practical cavalry academy differ greatly, the main purpose of the annual examinations throughout history has been to assess the candidates' ability to adapt to unexpected situations, their character and temperament, and their actual combat skills.

This is also closely related to the world's highest difficulty dungeon, "Shadow World".

The next three months.

As long as he can successfully produce some "Ranch-style" key magic cards, and then buy a few readily available magic cards to complement them.

Lan Qi is not incapable of pulling off a move that would leave all the academy leaders speechless!
