Chapter 1: The Genius of the Clock Tower
The autumn wind is howling, and with the change of temperature, the weather in October has gradually turned colder. Most pedestrians on the street choose to wear an extra layer of clothing.
But for magicians, these are irrelevant. They all have their own unique methods, of course, these are all achieved by magic, so if someone sees someone wearing very little but not feeling cold on the street, maybe that is a magician.
This is London, known as the Fog City. It was the center of the world a century ago. It is also the location of the Magic Association Clock Tower, which is known as the Atlas Academy and the Sea of Wandering.
Around 1pm, in a classroom on the first floor of the Clock Tower, the semicircular structure has a clearly defined staircase on one side, and several long tables are neatly placed on each level. The students have occupied all the tables and are quietly waiting for the lecturer's words.
Kenneth El-Melloi Archipelud, the first-level lecturer of the Clock Tower's Spiritual Adventuring Department, walked up to the podium slowly and scanned the more than 100 magic interns present with a cold look. His eyes softened slightly when he slid over one of the girls just now, but they were extremely cold at other times.
"It looks like it's about to start!" The girl sitting in her seat felt a little complicated.
In this life, her name is Sajyou Manaka, a time traveler. As the eldest daughter of a magic family, she was forced to change her gender, which gave her this name by her parents. She said goodbye to everything in her previous life. Even her family in this life has only her father and sister left, and they are separated because of her coming to the Clock Tower.
But even so, Manaka doesn't care - because she is different from others from the moment she was born.
She is not just a time traveler. As the princess of the origin, as the goddess of the erosion, she or He who walks with that [unspeakable grandeur], she is born to ride above all things.
The world she came to, the world known as "Type-Moon"! Although it is just an inconspicuous branch among many parallel lines, and not even the world line of Cangyin, as a time traveler and the princess of the root, Sajyou Manaka, although not omnipotent, can also be omniscient. She is born with the ability to control the ex-level thousand eyes and approach omniscience.
But because she is a time traveler, she does not have a pure character like the original, but she can also feel the gradual weakening of her emotions... and the feeling of being dominated and shrouded by boredom.
She has been able to listen to the words of the gods and communicate with the world since birth. The elves of flowers, plants and trees that have become extinct are seen every day. In front of her, invisibility and lies are meaningless. She can easily see ghosts passing by graves and hear wailing passing by battlefields. The fate of any life in her eyes is clear, and the history of any non-life is also clear at a glance.
This world has almost no secrets in her eyes. She came here mainly to witness the plot with her own eyes, to get rid of boredom, and to try to learn the third law in the Holy Grail War. After all, it is different from the magic that she can easily learn with just one look. If there is anything she doesn't know in this world, it is probably the magic that cannot be achieved by magic and technology!
At the same time, Kenneth's speech also began.
"In the world of magic, blood can roughly determine a person's quality."
The words were very calm, as if simply stating a fact.
"The reason is that the secrets of magic cannot be mastered in one generation. In order to reach the root, parents will let their children inherit the results of their lifelong training."
Kenneth continued with a cold expression: "Why do I start with this simple topic? Because a student submitted a paper to me this morning." He took out a stack of texts clipped in a folder.
"The title is "Pursuing the Path of New World Magic". This paper questioned the topic I just mentioned. He proposed that through a deeper understanding of the technique and more reasonable use of magic power, the innate gap can be made up. In other words, a magician with a weak bloodline can also become a first-class magician. To be honest, I was really enlightened after reading this paper."
As Kenneth said, no, it should be said that the content of the paper revealed in his words caused a wave of excitement among the interns. Most people were curious about who wrote it.
"Please be quiet." Kenneth glanced at the paper in his hand, and then said calmly: "To be honest, what is written here is nothing but delusion. The quality of magicians depends on the difference in bloodline, which is an irreversible fact."
"If you want to talk about evidence, the current system of the Magicians Association is the evidence. What do you think about this? Student Weber Velvet."
Hearing that the topic suddenly turned to Weber Velvet, Sajyou Manaka also cast her eyes on the boy who seemed a little weak.

With a click, the door of the classroom was opened, and the students rushed out of the room like a stream of water.
The girl walked slowly and calmly in the spacious corridor that looked like an ancient palace, full of elegance and luxury. The magicians along the way couldn't help but smile at her.
"Senior Manaka! How can this problem be solved!"
"Ah, as expected of Lady Manaka, isn't this a piece of cake for her?"
"Yes, yes, yes! Senior Manaka is the best."
The magic interns passing by the girl asked her questions one after another, and the girl responded one by one, showing a sweet smile to these people.
"Who is this girl? She looks very popular?" A magician who had just arrived at the Bell Tower asked his companion with some confusion.
"You don't know that person? It seems that you have just come to the Clock Tower not long ago!" The first person to respond to his words was a student next to him who was a little surprised to hear this sentence.
"The girl from the Far East Black Magic Family is a true genius. She is only sixteen years old, but she has already reached the position of a master." The previous magician replied without thinking and with a tone of admiration.
There are seven levels of magician ranks, among which the highest level of grand is often called the pinnacle of magic. Those who can reach that level are almost all people standing at the top of the magic world. They have talents, knowledge and even opportunities that ordinary people cannot reach. Even in history, they are rare. Except for magicians, almost no one can stand above them.
Next are the next three levels of magician rank: Color rank (
and), ride, and fes. They represent the outstanding talents in the magic world. In fact, many monarchs in history were color magicians, and they possessed almost the most powerful magic power in the world.
Finally, there are the lower three levels of magician rank: cae, unt, and fra.
Manaka Sajyou, she has short hair close to platinum, clear eyes like the blue sea, a voice like a yellow oriole, and a beautiful face as pure and flawless as jade. In the eyes of others, she is gentle and cheerful, and is willing to answer other people's questions. Her emerald dress makes her even more beautiful, like an ancient fairy. She is a girl that even cold-blooded magicians can't help but feel pity when they see her.
But!
This is just how others see Manaka Sajyou.
People arbitrarily put all their visions and imaginations of beauty on her, creating this girl who is perfect in everyone's eyes.
It must be said that the strange charm of the Princess of the Origin, the natural connection with the Origin, the ultimate beauty that seems to be blessed by the heaven and earth is really fatal.
At this time, after answering everyone's questions, Manaka Sajyou looked at Weber Velvet who left in a hurry with a strange look.
