Soaring Flames

As one of the first players to gain access to World of Falan—the first immersive game worldwide—Roland creates his character as a Mage. 
However, playing as a Mage is not as fun and easy as he thought. His head even explodes after he casts the very first spell in the game. 
Stubbornly sticking to his class when most Mages decide to create a new character, Roland gradually discovers tricks of the trade and his unusual talent. This allows him to change people's stereotypes on Mages and to explore the deeply-buried secrets of this game…

Mages Are Too OP

The next day after the test, the children all went to school.

Of course, they had to pay one gold coin per semester, twice a year, as their tuition fee.

According to the curriculum Roland devised, they had to study at least five years before they could graduate as useful magic apprentices or official Mages.

Naturally, the children of the poor couldn't afford the tuition fees, but Roland asked them to sign a rather loose contract, in which they could pay part or all of their tuition fees by running errands for the Magic Tower, depending on their amount of work.

Also, the loan could be paid back over a period of thirty years, with no interests charged.

It meant that, if the students were willing to work a couple more years in the Magic Tower, they could soon pay their tuition fees in full. After all, it was not hard for Mages to make money. So, they were almost studying for free.
