Inheritor Of Magic: The Magi King -
Chapter 280 280 School Uniforms
The mixer made it downstairs before Wolfe did, and his entry to the dining hall was marked by a flying Cook coming his way.
The tattooed witch threw her arms around his neck and kissed him all over his face as she celebrated.
"I knew you would think of me on your trip. That is exactly what we needed. We have been using magic to do it, but this is perfect. It even has preset rhythms on it. How did you replace it?" She asked, still hanging off him.
"They had it in storage in the town across the border. So, when it came time to trade items for spells and such, I made sure I got it for you."
"I don't get it. What does that thing do that a big bowl and a [Stir] spell can't?" One of the witches asked.
"Nothing, except do it without you paying attention. Mixing and kneading dough for hours with magic is a huge waste of time. This will make all our bread doughs and cake batters while we do other things and save more than half of our time spent cooking every day." Cook explained.
That was a good enough explanation for everyone in the room. Cook put a lot of work into their meals, so anything that made her life easier was a good thing.
"There are also at least ten books full of design schematics and blueprints for various magical appliances in the Library now. So if you get a few interested witches together, you can likely replace all of the industrial kitchenware that you couldn't bring with you.
It's not the perfect option, and what you can't make, I can order from the Myrrh Coven in exchange for spells and charms made by the Rank Two witches.
Stephanie got a workout doing Garden Charms for the villagers. Everyone wanted to have her enchant their home garden to grow better reagents, and I'm sure there are more towns that would jump at the chance, as well as any other useful spells you know." Wofe informed her.
Colonel Ming smirked at Wolfe. "You know, if you just offered them a town-wide barrier and Mana Gathering Array, they would give you anything that you asked for and throw in their firstborn's virginity as a bonus."
"It looks like they nearly did that for Garden Charms and whatever else Wolfe is pretending that he didn't cast for them." Cassie reminded her.
"A few magical weapons, some armour for the army and that Mana Gathering Array that I traded the Captain for the Magi Relic in the ruins." Wolfe clarified.
"Well, it looks like it was enough to get what you came for anyhow. Now, let's eat." Ella laughed.
The young witches were seated near the wall, staring out at the crowd with awestruck eyes. This whole place was overwhelming them, and they had only been given the most basic underground tour so far and shown their new rooms, which they had universally agreed were fit for a Coven Leader's daughter.
They were actually the most basic of dorm rooms in the Den, and they were still sharing rooms with one other girl, but it was much better than the prison cells that they had come from or their apartments in the slums.
"How much is the food here? There is no menu." One of the girls whispered to their teacher, who was seated across from them.
"No charge. Like at the Academy, the cafeteria is open to anyone. You can get leftovers to eat in your room as well, but remember to bring the dishes back, or Cook will get mad at you. If they don't come back on time, she has to make more for the next meal's leftovers.
There are chore rotations, but at the moment, we are all capable of creating Mana Crystals, so it has thrown off the whole monetary system, and nobody is sure what to do about it. So we just take what we need, and then the others will make us work extra if we've been greedy with the resources.
The only ones that are really exempt are Wolfe since he's always trading for random stuff, and it's a pain to keep track of, and Cook because everything that she collects goes to operating the kitchen.
If you need clothes, there are piles of them in storage. The younger witches have been practicing making them with their Witch Magic. If you need a spell made, just ask someone.
It's a strange thing for everyone to be so powerful that they're nearly self-sufficient, but we're sorting it out as we go." The Teacher explained.
As she went, she realized just how odd the situation was, but she didn't know a better way to explain it, so they just went with how things were.
"So, the more powerful we are, the more we get because we can just make it for ourselves?" One of the girls asked.
"I mean, yeah, pretty much. See the girl in the frilly pink princess gown with the jewels all over it and the fur coat? That's an Armour Spell. It's not made of anything but magic. So if you want designer clothes, you just need to learn to cast the right spells, and you can have them as long as you can imagine them."
Mary heard herself being talked about and came to say hello to the new witches.
"Did you tell them about the pool? They should know about the pool and the hot springs. They're everyone's favourites. Hi, I'm Mary, a lover of all things soft and fluffy. Ask me if you want cute things to wear. I am really good at it."
The girls were still wearing the same bland sweatsuit that the prison had sent them out in, and they were happy to get changed, so all of the girls were eager to take Mary up on her offer.
"If you can make us some actual decent clothes with the [Disguise] spell, that would be great. I heard that magical armour is different and not really clothing." One of the girls agreed.
"I suppose that is true. It's actually a layer that goes over you, and it vanishes when dispelled, so a lot of witches prefer to wear clothes under it. Me, I just wear the armour spell all the time because cute things are really hard to put on if you make physical items.
Since you're students, do you want me to make you all some Academy Uniforms? Those look good, and they have always been a point of pride for young Witches in the Morgana Coven where I come from."
"Oh, yes, please. I always dreamed of the day that I could have an Academy Uniform of my own." The girl cheered, getting a lot of amused looks from around the room.
There was no negative judgment, though. They were all that excited when it was their turn to start their Academy training.
"So, now we need proper colours for the Den Academy." Mary pondered out loud.
Every Academy had its own colour scheme. Some of them changed the colour of the uniform or added accessories for every year that the student was there so that you could identify the seniors at a glance as well. But as Mary was making the decisions, cute was the important factor.
"Don't go too overboard," Wolfe warned her when Mary started getting excited.
Mary concentrated hard and then smiled and looked up at one of the Flame Winged Sparrows, the recently summoned Familiars that were constantly flying around the Den.
With a flourish of her hand, a stack of clothing appeared on the table, then another, and a third.
The first was a stack of cream-coloured blouses that wouldn't be too hot in the sun, while the second was tartan print pleated skirts in gray with flame orange linework that closely matched the birds' coloration, and the final stack was stockings and shiny black Mary Jane shoes.
The girls smiled at the simple school uniforms while Mary focused harder on making the last item and the most essential to any Witch's wardrobe, the robes. They were a greenish-brown colour, like the mossy ground of the forest, and when the light shifted across them, metallic blue and purple threads shimmered, giving them an iridescent glow like the Wisps.
It was very Fae Forest themed, and they would blend right in with their surroundings when they were wearing their robes, Wolfe was certain.
Once they were created, Mary cast a set of spells over the robes for temperature control so that they could be worn in the heat and another on the whole collection to self-clean and self-repair.
Wolfe noticed that the left side of the Chest had the Noxus Family logo on it but with an open book in the middle over the snake's tail. That must be what Mary decided their Academy logo would be.
"There are fourteen sets there, two for each of you and two each for the other two students. I just need to replace them to give them their uniforms." Mary explained.
"We're over here." Katerina reluctantly called since her new partner didn't speak much, even after she had been fully healed and begun her training as a witch.
"Perfect, come get your new uniforms, and you can wear them to class tomorrow. You've got new classmates, so I will leave you all to get acquainted.
