It's Hard Being an Adept in Training, or Mermaids Cry Too

It’s hard to study at the Academy of Curses—especially if your mother is a mermaid and you have an attractive appearance and possess ancient magic of melodious spells. Want to know why?

Because once, the academy rector—His High Darkness—was cursed by a mermaid.

From the author: the story was written using Elena Zvezdnaya’s worlds and participated in the “Adeptyonka” contest.

Attention! The mermaid’s spell is performed by the author herself, Valentina Yezerskaya.
