I. You agreed to teach physics at the Academy of War and Peace? Be careful! Unmanageable students and unseen races await you. You’ll have to put out fires, dodge rockfalls, and calm down flying furniture. You’ll need to control a magnetic field and fight green giants. But the biggest problem is your immediate supervisor—a vice-rector and warrior-barbarian—cheeky, unstable, and insanely in love with the new instructor.
II. You agreed to a placement at the Academy of Persuasion and Delusion? Be attentive! In this paradise of carelessness and a realm of glamor, you’ll have to battle terrifying hallucinations, conduct a real investigation, and fight the green giant-cri ps again—enemies of all the intersections of worlds. But every problem can be solved! Especially if your beloved is nearby—a warrior-barbarian who can risk his life for his woman, uncover the most cunning conspiracy, and even renounce his supposedly unshakable male principles.
Running on a heavily creased course of terrain? Gymnastics with flourishes? Races with bicycles in your pockets? Only for you, and only at the Academy of Everything and Nothing—sports competitions!
A combined team from three universities at the intersections versus a team of evil warlocks! To win, you’ll have to stock up on a sense of humor and even not dream of quiet and peace. Because for the barbarian, sport is war, and war is the same as sport! And if you live and work next to him, you’ll have to accept it—whether you want to or not. But even in the toughest circumstances, the barbarian will manage to save the world, protect his woman, and find time for fun.
If some unknown pranksters promised to pay off your debt, don’t relax. In just a minute you might find yourself somewhere unknown, with new—far more serious—commitments. Namely: working as an instructor at the Academy of Healers. Here everything is turned upside down. Patients are treated with the energy of life; truants are scared with boundless healing; and everything is run by the famous warrior-doctors Ailivert Mastguri and his older son Dimar—more like wild warriors than medical luminaries. And if it’s too late to be upset, then it’s time to rejoice. Because the dream—broad-shouldered, muscular, and also full of love—is there as a free bonus to the move. And then everything will depend only on you!
“Under the rule of alien warlike mages who call themselves creeps, nothing was done in a human way. And, besides, people here have been absent for a long time. Once, the green giants—how other races named the creeps—kidnapped earthly women and tried to continue their line that way. As it later turned out, the creepy-creep females suffered infertility after an ecological catastrophe. But now the locals have taken to cloning and raising children in test tubes. They’ve truly taken the path to righteousness, so to speak. Though not without the help of a sword and a ‘plow’—in the figurative sense of those words. For the matter is about battle magic and threats from other warlike wizards of the Intersections—about a special place shaped like a pentagram, where the boundaries of many different dimensions crossed. There, any magic was strengthened; defenders of planets inhabited by weak sorcerers or beings without magical abilities lived, worked, and studied…“
