Chapter 26: Academy System Task Division
But in the end, I still chose to go out. After all, staying at home is really boring.
Compared to this, I still want to see the various sights in the so-called Witch Academy.
Unfortunately, my Sister Bai escaped suddenly last night. Although I don’t know what’s going on with her, her hasty departure must be due to something important, right?
I can’t push her on this matter. Even now, I have only unlocked a small snack street in the Witch Academy map.
So it’s really giving me a headache to explore this unfamiliar district by myself.
After thinking for a while, I could only think of the area where the academy registration took place yesterday.
There were quite a few people there, and if there’s a place where enthusiastic seniors are willing to help new students, that should be it.
Once I got there, just asking around a bit shouldn’t be a problem, right? Didn’t Sister Bai say those are all volunteer seniors from the academy?
Responsible for guiding new students in enrollment.
I don’t even know if it’s paid work; if there’s compensation, I wouldn’t mind acting as a guide for new students in my capacity as a new student. After all, I’m clear on the enrollment process—I just finished it yesterday.
The only issue is that I don’t know how to get the Magic Source into the new students’ bodies.
And even if I can’t be a volunteer, there would still be entertainment to see there; watching the new students who were lured in cry and fuss is quite interesting.
What’s even more interesting is seeing the boys after they are turned into prospective witches. I can understand why those seniors like to do that; I also enjoy it now!
So interesting.
I hope those boys can handle it and don’t want to give up on life.
After all, living is much better than dying; at least that’s how I see it right now.
I took a vehicle to the registration place.
Since this is the academy’s entrance, it is a landmark area of the Witch Academy. Naturally, there are many vehicle routes passing through here, which can be directly checked using my phone. There’s a channel at the platform for real-time route checking, which should count as a kind of QR code.
Strictly speaking, it should still be morning, but I wasted quite a bit of time this morning fixing up my appearance and didn’t have time for breakfast. Though I’m a bit hungry, missing one meal isn’t a big deal.
In the morning, there were already quite a few seniors busy with registration, even though there aren’t many new students enrolling at this time.
The students who reported early are only a part of them.
“New student, are you here for something?”
It seems that she thought I was standing too close, and this senior directly asked me.
Seeing that I was already wearing the Witch Cloak, she naturally assumed I had registered as a new student.
“Hello, Senior. I’m a new student who just enrolled yesterday. I was wondering if I could ask some questions?”
I politely asked, and since there were not many new students around at this time, the other party seemed to be quite free. Moreover, since she opened up to me, I decided to follow up with my questions.
“Of course, since I still have some free time, feel free to ask anything.” This senior showed enough patience, putting down what she was working on to look at me.
“Well, I was wondering if there are any regulations regarding part-time jobs at the academy? I just got here and don’t know much, and I don’t have much money on me, so I’m thinking of finding a part-time job.”
Yes, the first thing I asked about was part-time work. If there’s a shortcut, I wouldn’t want to ask every store whether they’re hiring temporary workers.
“The academy doesn’t really have regulations for part-time jobs, nor are there any requirements. You’re looking for a part-time job now, right?” This senior thought for a moment and responded to my question since she hadn’t considered part-time jobs herself.
“Yes, more or less. I’m a bit short on cash since I had a falling out with my family.”
“I see, you had a falling out with your family…”
When the senior heard this, she seemed to imagine a lot and even became more enthusiastic in her tone. “So, you want to earn quick money, huh? Actually, there are many ways to make money at the academy. Looking for a part-time job should… be the slowest way.”
“Many ways?”
Upon hearing this from her, my eyes immediately lit up. Making money is not something to be ashamed of.
So I immediately became enthusiastic, trying to get closer, lowering my posture a bit, and even slightly raising my voice. However, I didn’t dare to exaggerate too much, or it would have the opposite effect. “Um, Senior, could you introduce some to me?”
“Introduce sounds a bit too much; in fact, it’s just that you new students don’t know about these. The simplest one is the Witch Academy system. It has many functions, including but not limited to querying phase grades, course schedules, class divisions, academy tasks, etc.”
“I see…”
I hurriedly picked up the phone issued by the academy. Although there weren’t many apps, the so-called Witch Academy system was quite prominent.
“By the way, remember to use your student card to exchange personal information; otherwise, you may not be able to log in.” This senior seemed to think of something and spoke again. “Just place your student card behind your phone, and it will sense it; the academy system will automatically update your student information. If there’s a binding error, you can change it in the settings.”
“Okay… got it.”
I quickly opened the Witch Academy system, and indeed, various functions were all gathered in it, and the divisions were very clear and straightforward.
“Did you find it? There’s also a part-time job section in the academy tasks, and there will be many part-time job postings there. At least those posted here won’t deceive you, otherwise, you can report them for issuing false tasks, and you’ll even get compensated.”
“Oh~ found it, thank you, Senior~”
Once I found it, I immediately spoke in a sweet tone. It seems anyone is quite fond of this approach.
“Finding it is good. Do you have any other questions?”
“I do, actually… um, I wanted to ask if the volunteers responsible for guiding new students during enrollment receive any compensation? Is there a registration threshold?”
I quickly took the chance to ask; after all, if I could take on the task of guiding new students during the enrollment period, I could brag about it for a long time.
If I have time, I certainly wouldn’t miss it, even if it’s unpaid, I might try it out a few times for fun.
But I can only do it a few times; now it’s still about making money.
“New student, your thought process is quite unique, huh? Volunteers, of course, are unpaid. At least there’s no money involved. This is a task released by the academy; you can find it directly in that task system. The academy’s published tasks are very conspicuous and specially marked, but unfortunately, you’re currently not even qualified for the registration threshold.”
The senior seemed to be amused by my words, and she didn’t hide the smile at the corners of her mouth. She just leaned back slightly and looked at me with interest.
“Threshold? What threshold? Is it about helping new students adjust to the Magic Source?”
Hearing there’s no compensation, my enthusiasm dropped by half. The remaining half is due to the entertainment value to watch, though I probably won’t get a turn.
As for the so-called threshold, the only thing I can think of is this. I still can’t even muster the magic power in my own body, so how could I get the Magic Source into the new students?
