Chapter 190: No! Can I Be your Assistant(1)
[Ding! Excitement and enthusiasm detected.]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, on obtaining a golden treasure chest!]
"I know you're excited, but please calm down for now..."
"Although I'm happy right now, it's also quite painful..."
"So..."
"Professor Babbling, can you please let go of me?"
Due to the special position, Blake's voice sounded a bit muffled.
Upon hearing this, Professor Babbling immediately realized.
She quickly released her arms.
Then she picked up the nearby glass and took a sip.
Concealing her embarrassment.
Blake took a deep breath of fresh air.
With his strength, he could certainly break free.
But...
Why would he want to break free?
The professor was so generous and rich, so soft...
"Cough, cough..."
"Professor Babbling, I am honoured to be invited as your assistant."
"But could you tell me what your research project is?"
Blake sat up straight again and asked.
Two blushes appeared on Professor Babbling's face.
It was unclear whether it was due to the alcohol or her embarrassing actions just now.
However, since Blake skipped over that matter on his own initiative...
She naturally didn't dare to say more.
When she heard Blake asking about her research project...
Her somewhat calm mood became excited again.
"My research project..."
"It's to study the practicality of ancient languages like Nini!"
"Not the boring task of translating ancient texts!"
"But..."
Professor Babbling stood up, her face filled with excitement.
"But it's the kind of magic that can harness the power of ancient languages.
"
"The practicality that can be applied in reality!"
"Now, because of the definition of the role of ancient runic script by the bereau."
"It's simply a waste of this magical power!"
"Ancient runic script should not only be used to translate ancient texts."
"Or occasionally participate in alchemy, after all, how many alchemists were there?"
"Hogwarts doesn't even have alchemy classes..."
"So, I want to change the industry's bias against ancient runic script!"
Professor Babbling looked eagerly at Blake.
From the moment she saw the piece of parchment that Blake dropped.
She knew that Blake would definitely understand her ideas!
A person who thinks about how to make a magic scroll.
How could they be content with treating ancient runic script, this magical power?
As just an ordinary ancient script translator?
Blake must be someone who shares the same pursuit as her!
Blake nodded, "I accept your invitation, Professor Babbling."
After hearing these words, Professor Babbling.
Happily picked up her glass and took a sip.
Then she reached out her fair and slender hand towards Blake.
"Pleasure to work with you, young man!"
"Pleasure to work with you...."
"But I still want to say something."
"I'm not a young man, my name is Blake Green."
"You can just call me Blake."
Professor Babbling laughed, "But you are still quite young."
Blake's face turned dark.
Although he knew she was referring to his age.
But being called young by a woman...
It just didn't sit well with him no matter how he thought about it.
"Alright, enough joking, Blake..."
"Next, I want to know to what extent you have mastered ancient runic script."
Getting back to business.
Professor Babbling resumed her seriousness as a professor.
Babbling's curiosity about Blake's proficiency in ancient Runic was not surprising.
Because she truly had no idea about Blake's true level of proficiency in ancient Runic language.
After all, what the parchment revealed was only Blake's whimsical thoughts on ancient Runic.
In reality, it was impossible to discern the true level of proficiency.
"You can test me," Blake confidently said.
Indeed, testing was the best method.
Especially for a course like ancient Runic.
Whether it is used for translating ancient texts.
Or applied in real life.
The most basic thing was still rote memorization!
The more one knows and understands ancient Runic.
The higher their level of proficiency.
And in certain aspects, ancient Runic was somewhat similar to Chinese characters.
Truly, one character represented one meaning!
So the method of testing proficiency in ancient Runic was also simple!
Babbling handed a scroll of parchment to Blake.
"Alright, come on. Write down all the ancient Runic texts that you have already learned, word for word."
"As long as you don't activate any magic, these symbols can be written on parchment."
Blake frowned and said, "Do I have to write them all?"
"Of course! Otherwise, how would I know your true level?"
"Then... can I just write down what I don't understand? I won't write down what I already understand for now?"
Babbling shook her head, "You can write down what you haven't understood on another piece of parchment later."
"I will explain it to you later..."
Babbling still remembered that she had yet to teach Blake the ancient Runic texts course.
Blake frowned again and said, "Sigh... Professor Babbling, do I really have to do this?"
"Of course!" Babbling said when she saw Blake hesitating.
If it weren't for him taking out that piece of parchment, she would have thought he didn't understand anything.
"Alright... then you need to prepare another roll of parchment for me."
"Huh?" Babbling didn't quite understand what he meant.
But Blake didn't say anything else.
Instead, he spread out the parchment on the desk next to him.
He moved his wrist skillfully.
Because next, was a big project...
Blake picked up a feather pen and dipped it in ink.
"Shasha!"
The sound of the pen tip touching the parchment paper rang out.
Babbling took a look and nodded.
Then she went back to her sofa to read.
Babbling read the book for a while.
She looked up at Blake over there.
She found that he was still writing furiously.
She didn't pay any more attention.
Thinking of reading the book for a while longer.
It shouldn't be long before Blake calls it a day.
After all, Blake was still young.
He shouldn't know and remember too much ancient Runes.
The second hand of the clock ticked away.
Babbling, who was engrossed in reading, temporarily forgot that there was another person in the office.
She flipped through the book in her hand to the end!
After finishing the book and taking a satisfying sip of wine.
Babbling glanced at the clock.
"Hmm... it's been two hours already..."
"Hmm?" Babbling suddenly remembered Blake.
Why hadn't this little guy called her yet?
Could he be asleep?
She quickly turned around.
And then she saw Blake still writing furiously...
Babbling looked at the desk full of parchment paper in astonishment.
She could vaguely see the densely packed ancient Runic symbols on it.
"No way... he actually knows so much ancient Runic language?"
Babbling put down her wine glass and walked over.
She even doubted if Blake was just scribbling randomly.
When Babbling walked behind Blake.
She didn't call out to Blake.
Instead, she picked up a piece of parchment paper filled with ancient Runic and started reading it.
The next second.
Babuling, who had originally appeared somewhat relaxed, now had a look of confusion on her face.
It was all because of the ancient Nivian script that Blake had written.
She could only recognize about two-thirds of it! The remaining one-third, she didn't recognize at all!
