In Need of Money (2)

"Aren’t you in front of one right now?" Anna smiled.

Natalie looked at the confident Anna and felt that the other party was better than herself, so she suppressed the uncertainty in her heart, held Anna's hand and said, "Then my future is in your hands!"

Anna said, "No, your future can only be controlled by yourself."

Anna felt that making a friend like Natalie as soon as she arrived was the biggest gain today. After transmigrating, she seemed to have no one to make friends with.

Of course, making friends did not mean that you couldn’t talk about benefits. Although Natalie had not passed the one-star mage examination seven times, she was familiar with the Mage Association. If Anna had any questions, she could easily get answers from Natalie. And in the process of learning, teaching others was also a kind of consolidation for her own learning. Only when she could explain it clearly to others, did she really understand.

She liked this kind of win-win situation.

Natalie got so much encouragement from Anna's words at the moment; she said with bright eyes: "You are right, I only rely on myself to control my future! Let's start the special training tomorrow!"

Anna poured cold water directly on her*: "I can’t tomorrow, I have to go to a literacy class."

[T/N] To rain on someone’s parade; to disappoint somebody.

"Literacy class?"

"Yep, it's an introductory course." Anna thought for a while and said, "but the planning can be done in advance. Let's meet in the cafeteria of the association tomorrow at noon. Gather your previous assessment results in the meantime."

Anna said as she got up and waved to Natalie: "Then I'll head back first. I still have to clean up at home. See you tomorrow."

Natalie waved goodbye to Anna in a daze, and only when she saw her disappearing in the library door did she show her worry.

Anna even had to take an introductory lesson! Why did she feel that she suddenly had no confidence in her special training?

"But why in the cafeteria tomorrow?"

Natalie muttered softly, and when she lifted her eyes, she suddenly noticed a few people in the corner of the study room. Those people were civilians. Although their families had some money, they were also very talented. They always studied hard and often stayed all day long in the association library reading books, so they ate in the cafeteria. As for the cafeteria of the association, no nobles had ever been there; even she had never been.

Natalie suddenly remembered that when Anna introduced herself, she didn't say her last name, and she covered her mouth with a complicated expression.

"Anna is a civilian?"

Natalie had never interacted with civilians before. Although everyone was in the association, those civilians seemed to either fear the nobles or disdain them. Of course, she would not take the initiative to interact with them.

Of course, because of her lack of talent, everyone else had become a one-star mage, and she was still just a mage‘s disciple, so she didn’t have much contact with the noble mages of the association.

"Only Anna cares about me..." Natalie said in a low voice with red eyes, so what if she was a commoner; besides, she was a noble, yet forced to marry a stinky old man.

After Anna left the association, she thought for a while before removing the badge and putting it away.

The promotion assessment was two months later. She wanted to participate to test her level, and at the same time, it would also be convenient for her to show her talent. She had just become a mage’s disciple; to become a one-star mage so soon after, was this enough to cause a sensation? Good teachers should be constantly looking to grab her as a student, right?

Speaking of, she seemed to have seen that it cost money to participate in the promotion assessment.

She took out the handbook and turned to that page again. When she saw "five gold coins for the registration fee,” her expression did not look too good. For the association, these five gold coins were actually considered welfare. They were made to block those who randomly wanted to take the assessment without properly preparing or studying, to reduce the pressure on the staff.

Whether a nobleman or a wealthy civilian in the association, as long as they did not frequently test, money was not a problem.

It was only her, a pauper, who couldn’t gather this money at all.

"Being a mage is really expensive."

Anna sighed with emotion, remembering the bag of gems Balan placed in front of her at that time. She should have raided his corpse after he "died".…..Being cursed was better than having no money!

Anna returned to the house and began to clean up the room. The bed was a new one prepared for her by Givina, and her own things could barely fill up the room. The attic could be seen to be cleaned frequently; it was very tidy already. She just cleaned it a little bit.

After drying the clothes that she had changed out of and washed, Anna fell on the bed with a puff, closed her eyes, and couldn't help laughing after a while.

She finally embarked on the path of a mage!

It didn’t matter if there was no money; she could earn money. As long as she had the ability and hard work, there would be no obstacles that couldn’t be overcome!

For example, at noon tomorrow, she could ask Natalie if there was any way for a mage to make money.

Anna turned over and sat up. Just as she was in a meditation position about to start meditation, she heard a noise from downstairs. It sounded like Givina’s voice.

Anna looked down from the street window in the attic, and saw several men were in a scuffle with Givina, saying things like "move out" and "mine".

When Anna heard the word "move out", her heart sighed. She had just moved in, and she worked so hard to clean up the room. If anyone dared to make her move out at this time, she would surely put up a fight!
