Meet the principal
Act 98. Gift
Two days later, it was the first day of the weekend.
Dana got up early as usual, put on her sailor uniform and short skirt, but sat on the bed, taking no action.
On a normal day, she should go to a work-study program to help clean the campus, then study by herself for a while, do a few math problems, and study new styles of dresses in the evening.
But today is her birthday.
Dana Christian's birthday is also the death anniversary of Adol Christian and Elena Kristen.
The girl had mixed feelings in her heart, and an inexplicable irritability swept over her, causing her to suffer from insomnia last night, and she finally fell asleep late at night. When she looked in the mirror this morning, she could vaguely see faint dark circles under her eyes.
In order to calm down, Dana took out the test paper that Reiner gave him and decided to do a few math questions.
As the formulas were listed and the calculations began, Dana felt her heart gradually calm down. She spent about half an hour solving a three-question question, put down her pen, and then slowly stood up and walked out of her dormitory.
The sun of the White Dew Moon scorches the earth, and the brick-paved ground is like a high-temperature heated iron plate. You can feel the heat through the soles of your shoes. There are not many students staying in the campus square, making the entire campus seem quiet.
Dana walked through the corridor and came to where Reiner told her it was an ordinary classroom.
She stood at the door and pondered for a while before stepping inside.
Bang——
Two crisp chimes exploded in her ears, followed closely by colorful paper bags and falling confetti.
"Happy birthday!"
It turned out to be Lena and Eureka. These two girls were hiding at the door, waiting for Dana to step into the classroom so that they could surprise her with the crackers in their hands.
"Wow...thank you, thank you."
Dana was naturally startled. Her head was covered with paper tapes, but she didn't feel disgusted. She looked into the classroom and found that in addition to the two people guarding the door, Reiner and Claire were already waiting here. Fina also sat quietly by the window and read a book.
Apparently, Reiner called in several people who were going to Toronto to take the exam together.
The words "Happy Birthday" were written in colorful chalk on the blackboard of the classroom, and in the middle of the room, four tables formed a large table, with a large cream cake placed on it, and seventeen candles were inserted into the cake, waiting to be lit.
"You came later than I expected."
Reiner smiled and gently brushed a few strands of ribbon from Dana's head.
"I was a little delayed by something."
Dana replied, in fact, Dana had already thought it through on the way here.
Her parents have passed away, and she should not always feel guilty for them. Only by looking forward and continuing to move forward can she make up for the regrets in her heart.
Dana made up her mind that starting from today, she would completely get rid of the influence of the past and face the future.
"It seems you are no longer worried about it."
Reiner said while handing a familiar note to Dana.
This is what Reiner asked all students to write in the first morning meeting about what they wanted to do.
And this one belongs to Dana.
After taking the note, Dana looked at her thoughts from more than a month ago. She smiled slightly and held it in her hand.
There was only one sentence on that note:
If you want to be a mage, even the worst and stupidest mage, as long as you are a mage, it is enough - Dana Kristen.
Even though her parents were obsessed with research and paid little attention to themselves, Dana still had a dream since she was a child, that is, to be a mage.
Because the world is so colorful, it would be a pity if our understanding of it only stayed on the surface.
"Come and make a wish."
Claire has lit the candle, and according to the tradition of this world,
The birthday person needs to blow out the candles and make a wish, which is likely to come true one day in the future.
This is a world of magic and miracles, and Reiner feels that maybe there is some kind of mysterious power in it.
After everyone finished singing the birthday song, Dana closed her eyes slightly and blew a gentle breath.
The candles were extinguished, and some kind of will seemed to be inspired, but no one noticed it.
Dana opened her eyes and saw her smiling friends. For the first time, she felt that celebrating her birthday was not that difficult.
At this moment, Reiner spoke.
"He's arrived."
Everyone turned around following Reiner's gaze and saw a man in a robe standing at the door of the classroom.
"Uncle Chester..."
Dana screamed and looked at the man.
This man was slender, but his face was full of traces of time. He looked no more than thirty years old, but his hair was already covered with white hair. When he saw Dana, he smiled slightly, as if he was a little sorry. said.
"I want to give you a surprise."
Chester walked into the classroom and nodded to Reiner first.
"Mr. Iain Gray, thank you for your reply."
"This is what I should do."
Reiner replied that the conversation between the two made Dana a little confused. When did her uncle have contact with Reiner?
"Dana, actually, I came here to give you a gift."
Chester hesitated before speaking.
"Gift?"
Dana was even more confused, but still listened to Chester quietly.
"Adol and Elena, they both fell due to the collapse of the demiplane ten years ago. Theoretically, all matter existing in that demiplane should have been annihilated, but just a few days ago , I got something.”
Chester took out a small cloth bag from his robe. You could vaguely see the original exquisite patterns on the bag, but after experiencing the baptism of wind and rain, the appearance has been mottled and faded.
But Dana recognized what it was at the first sight.
"Is this daddy's storage bag?"
Yes, this is the storage bag that Adol Christian carries with him. It contains his experimental notes and paper drafts. Dana used to secretly play with them when she was a child, and then received a severe lesson from her father, so she was deeply impressed. .
Chester nodded and handed it to Dana.
"I think you deserve this."
"But......"
But she had clearly disappointed her parents. Dana thought that she had always remembered the disappointed look in her eyes. At this moment, this storage bag was like a curse, making Dana feel the weight on her shoulders again. She really deserved this. The storage bag and its contents?
"Open it and take a look."
Chester said the seal on the storage bag had long since failed and anyone could have easily opened it.
After a moment of silence, Dana seemed to muster up the courage to open the storage bag and reach out to take out the contents.
However, unexpectedly, they were not familiar experimental notes, nor a draft of a paper, nor even a suicide note or magic prop.
It was an exquisite transparent glass box. In the box, there was a crumpled paper crane made of glued pieces.
At the bottom of the box, there is a sentence written.
——Commemorating the first step of the great mage Dana Kristen.
