Chapter 14: The Master Necromancer - Chapter 15 - Vol 1

The young people who wore red clothes came from a mage-college called Fire-Spirit College. The school itself was not that big, but still a strong school with strong fire-mages.

There are problems in the circle of mages too. Most of the problems are created because of the disputes between the elements and the alignment of the mages.

They accepted people who had an affinity with fire. After they took them and started teaching them, they gave one condition: after the school was over, they would be paying 20 silver coins per month to the college for about ten years.

They say that we will give you about five years of magical studies and make you real mages who can stand on the ground, after you pay 20 silver per month to the school for our work.

And the weird thing is that they did not accept full payment or upfront payment; they wanted their mages to be close to them.

The young student group contained five people, three males and two females, all of them at the age of 15 to 18. It was clear that they were going to finish school in three to two years.

So they were looking at the Skraal because the place where Skraal sat was only sat on by the mages. As they understood, the bartender did not say anything to him, and went to the kitchen to prepare for the food he wanted. It was clear the man they were looking at was a mage,

He did not care about the students, but he knew these things and how schools worked. He did not know every detail, but he understood that the five students were looking at him for his belongings.

Most of the organization's students came from the lower-backgrounds with no money. Because of that, they started to prepare money from the start as they wanted to pay it after they graduated from school.

Because if a person or a young mage comes from a rich family, he may not be able to sit and eat in the inn where he was sitting.

So they are looking at him because they wanted to take his belongings to pay their school fees. Skraal did not care about them because he was not a weak mage, and if they came to him looking for trouble, then he was going to kill them. It is that simple.

As Skraal was thinking, his food came, and before he started eating, he asked the woman a question about the students looking at him.

"Hey, do you know which school is from these students and why are they looking at me with murderous intent in their eyes?" because I will have to use my powers to block them if I am in need of

As the Skraal asked his question to the woman, the woman furrowed her brows and started talking.

"I am not sure if you know the law, but let me give you some information, my lord. As a human city, Ceredrim City does not care about battles between the mages as long as it does not harm any humans or belongings of humans like homes, furniture, or valuable items. And for your question,

They are from Fire-Spirit College and most likely looking for a way to pay their school fees. That is why they are looking at you. They think you are rich because you are sitting on a mage-table that can only be sat by mages.

Skraal nodded and thanked the woman and gave him three coppers for answering his question. The woman smiled and just left Skraal alone with his food.
