Volume 1 Chapter 8 Summoned by the Great Magician

After being in the Camilla Magic Tower for close to two months, this was actually Xu Yi’s first time entering the top of the Magic Tower.

When he stepped into Great Magician Camilla’s exclusive use area, a cool feeling immediately hit him. It made Xu Yi give an uncontrollable shiver and he almost gave a sneeze.

“It’s really good having a large scale Frost Array.” Xu Yi rubbed his nose before talking to Still in front of him with a smile.

“What? Are you envious?” Still looked back at Xu Yi with eyes filled with curiosity.

The Magic Fan Xu Yi had invented not long ago had made her surprised, but she never thought that her grandfather would suddenly summon him. Adding in the impression Xu Yi made on her on the first day, Still was quite interested in Xu Yi.

“Of course.” Xu Yi replied very naturally, “The seniors in the lab had secretly said many times that if there was a large scale Frost Array installed in the lab, everyone’s efficiency would increase by several times.”

Still laughed before saying while waving her hand, “That won’t happen. Grandfather is known for being poor, he doesn’t have the money to install a large scale Magic Array in each lab. Even this array here is only used on the hottest day, normally it’s only for decoration.”

Xu Yi somewhat understood this, but was still very curious.

“Young Miss Still, this isn’t normal, right? His excellency Camilla is still a Three Star Great Magician. Not mentioning anything else, just the set salary the kingdom gives him each year isn’t small, how could he be poor?”

“That’s because he spends more money than he receives.” Still gave a shrug and looked very helpless, “You only know that grandfather is a Great Magician and earns a large salary from the kingdom each year, but you don’t know how much magic research, especially high level magic research like grandfather does costs. He uses most of his income to buy magic materials and the rest is used for upkeeping the Magic Tower. His budget is actually quite tight.”

“It’s like this…..But I’ve heard that other Great Magicians are all very rich……”

“Are you trying to say that grandfather has no abilities in earning money?” Still rolled her eyes at Xu Yi, “Let me tell you, you can’t mention this in front of grandfather, otherwise he will be very angry.”

“No, no, no, of course I’m not thinking this. I’ve heard that his excellency Camilla has always been opposed to magicians focused on earning money……”

“There’s no choice, grandfather is just that stubborn.” Still let out a sigh, “I have urged him several times, but he always says that magicians should be focused on magic. Thinking about making money all day, they are simply shaming the name of magicians.”

Xu Yi nodded and said nothing else.

Great Magician Camilla reminded him of those scholars who focused on research, they also disdained doing business. They felt that the scent of money would corrupt their academic research.

Xu Yi did not like this kind of attitude. Sure the scent of commercialism would greatly affect academic research, but with the infusion of commercialism, it would raise their research funds, drastically improving their research environment. It would actually greatly increased the efficiency and progress of academic research.

There were many examples on earth of perfectly combined research and business. The two
