After supporting Mengli and climbing onto the boat with difficulty, a young man in his twenties came up to him.
He was wearing a gray and black apprentice robe similar to Yaro's, except that there was an owl head outlined in gold thread on the clothing.
After seeing Yaro's clothes, his expression couldn't help but be stunned.
Yaro quickly let go of Mengli, stood firm, and respectfully performed the etiquette of a wizard's apprentice.
"Good day, senior."
Seeing Yaro's salute, the young man quickly returned the salute: "Good day."
Just by looking at the young man's polite gesture, Yaro immediately made a judgment in his mind.
He was not from a wizarding family, and most likely he was not even a noble.
Don't look at the rituals he performed to be similar to Yaro. In fact, there are many details in the wizard apprentice's gestures.
Regardless of other things, the right hand must be spread straight out, and the fingers must not be close to each other.
This is because most apprentices' witchcraft is released from the right hand, spread straight out, and every finger is exposed, which is to show that they have no hidden spells and no intention to attack.
Then, the palms should be placed three finger heights above the heart, which means that 'knowledge is higher than oneself'.
Sometimes, because many people's palms are relatively wide and the space between the chest and shoulders is not enough to place the open palm, the little finger and ring finger will be deliberately raised just to achieve this purpose.
This etiquette does not have high requirements for the left hand, as long as it is not covered, but the etiquette of the nobles is also a right-handed posture, so generally wizards of noble origin will follow the requirements of noble etiquette and keep their left hand close to their trouser legs.
Even if a superior or elder returns the gift, or simply nods, if the gift is returned, the right hand must make the same gesture.
"Are you...the wizard family that sent the message this time?"
Yaro smiled slightly: "Senior, you are too praised. How dare you call us a wizard family? My grandfather was just an ordinary person who came out of the common people and barely managed to board the ship."
Hearing this, the young man's expression became much more friendly. He walked over a few steps and asked at the same time: "My name is Desi, what do you call my junior?"
Yaro laughed at himself: "Yaro Garner, my first writing teacher, calls me timid Yaro every day. Can senior Desi just call me Yaro?"
"Cowardly Yaro?"
Desi immediately became happy and laughed: "Okay, don't worry, I will only call you Yarrow."
Yaro pretended to be happy and said, "That would be great."
The two looked at each other, laughed loudly, and immediately felt a sense of understanding.
"By the way, Yaro, this person next to you is..."
Mengli, who was blindfolded and limping, was indeed a bit conspicuous. What Desi was more curious about was how did this young man get on the ship?
"His name is Mengli, and he is a companion I met halfway."
Yaro met Mengli in a nearby town, but what he said, in the eyes of others, was that he and Mengli met halfway on the road, and then came here together.
Yaro deliberately changed the concept, and then explained: "Unfortunately... while on the road, he inexplicably entered a strange place, and when he came out, he became like this."
Naturally, Mengli would not refute Yaro.
After all, what does it matter if it’s halfway or not?
This good brother next to me almost lost the precious opportunity to board the ship because he contradicted the wizard!
Weird place?
Desi's eyes flickered slightly, thoughtfully.
"By the way, Senior Desi, I hear your accent. You're not from here, are you? Where is your hometown?"
Yaro continued to chat with Desi.
During this process, young people who passed the test continued to board the deck. After seeing the young man wearing gray and black apprentice robes next to Yaro, they mistakenly thought he was also a wizard. They did not dare to disturb them and had to stand at a loss. On the side, they were whispering and discussing with each other what should happen next.
"My hometown."
Desi looked at the sea, sighed softly, and said nostalgically: "My hometown is far away from here, Andulu Continent. I wonder if my junior has heard of it?"
Andulu continent?
I really haven’t heard of it.
Yaro's expression did not change, he deliberately frowned and thought deeply, and said hesitantly: "It sounds a bit familiar, Senior Desi, can you still say a few words about your hometown?"
"oh?"
Desi looked at Yaro in surprise and tentatively said a few words.
Yaro was sure that it was indeed the 'Yurio language'. He had already guessed it when he heard the way Desi voice was converted, but he didn't expect it to be this language.
So Yaro followed up and said in 'Yulio language': "Brother Desi, I didn't expect that we are so destined. My grandfather must have come from the same place as you!"
Even if they speak the same language, there are slight differences in the way they speak, but this is normal. Let alone other continents, even the 'small island' where Yaro is located, the pronunciation of civilians in different towns has slight differences.
"Really? Did your grandfather tell you about the city where he was born?"
This is not a problem for Yaro. He learns every language and understands the general coverage of the language. At the same time, he also naturally memorizes the names of several cities.
"It seems to be called Nomi City? My grandfather just said a few words to me casually, and I don't remember it clearly."
"Nomi City? I know, it's not far from my hometown!"
…
Under Yaro's deliberate compliments, the two of them chatted more and more enthusiastically in the same language. As they chatted, they all began to call each other brothers and sisters, and they were on the verge of becoming brothers.
Don't underestimate Desi's role. After he completes this task, he must fill in a report to the above. Desi and other ordinary wizard apprentices may think that it is of little use. In fact, the purpose of this report is to look at the apprentices. What is your nature?
The first principle for the establishment of any organization must be unity.
It is precisely because of this that Nicole repeatedly told Yaro to blend into the crowd of test boys.
Those apprentices who think they are the best in the world, who like to be independent, and are arrogant and domineering will be recorded. It can also be regarded as a point deduction item. When the subsequent arrangements for the academy are made, there will be a big difference in points. It’s just those arrangements, this kind of Whether students like it or not is hard to say.
Yaro and Desi were chatting, and the teenagers in the open space had also completed their tests. Nicole didn't care whether some families were happy or sad. After walking on the deck, she looked at Desi and said coldly: "You put these people Make arrangements and maintain order on the ship."
After saying that, she hugged the black cat and turned around and walked into the cabin.
"As you command, Master Wizard Anise."
Yaro was not surprised to hear the name Desi, because he had already known that his mother was using a fake name at this time.
"Everyone, be quiet!"
Desi looked at the remaining sixty people on the deck, quietly clenched his fists, and pretended to be serious: "My name is Desi, and I am an intermediate wizard apprentice. You can call me Senior Desi from now on."
Yaro noticed Desi's nervousness, but this was not surprising. When selecting this position, Jungle House would deliberately look for wizard apprentices with relatively weak personalities. This was to allow the new students to show their true nature. come out.
"Follow me, let's allocate residences now."
