Turing's day begins with a strong and bitter cup of coffee.

At four o'clock in the morning, Turing wakes up earlier than the butler who prepares breakfast. After freshening up, he starts reciting spells and incantations for his magical studies.

Magic is divided into three categories: practical magic, performance magic, and combat magic. The vast variety does not daunt Turing; he often multitasks with three different threads of magic, surpassing others in individual breakthroughs.

It isn't until six o'clock that Turing's hungry stomach reminds him it's time for breakfast. At this point, Turing is composed and strides elegantly, reciting magic spell words under his breath, as he heads to the dining room in his noble manner.

At this moment, it is too early for the morning shift servants and too late for the night shift servants, so Turing is the only one dining.

Oh, I forgot to mention that although Erisburg is a noble castle, only Oedipus and Turing live there as nobles. The other cousins have gone to live elsewhere for various reasons, and the approximately two hundred people in the castle only work for these two.

And, whether intentional or not, the time Oedipus takes a bath always coincides with Turing's meals, so the mother and son rarely see each other during meals.

Yes, Oedipus has a habit of bathing three times a day, but when did that start?

After finishing breakfast, Turing sets off without delay. The Leibniz Magic Academy is a considerable distance from Erisburg.

The long journey tests not only his physical endurance but also his magical skills. Turing, who arrives at the school around seven o'clock each day, is not only growing proficient in magic.

His mind becomes clearer, and he becomes more adaptable in unexpected situations. Turing is a well-rounded genius.

From seven o'clock to twelve o'clock, Turing devotes himself entirely to practicing magic.

Whether it's eating, attending classes, or drinking water, Turing never stops absorbing knowledge during these five hours.

While others memorize vocabulary books, Turing has to memorize dictionaries; while others enjoy studying, Turing has to hypnotize himself into enjoying studying. Ironically, Turing's strength happens to be his own insecurities.

From twelve o'clock to two o'clock is the only time of the day Turing considers rest. During this time, Turing should be practicing painting.

He might draw mountains, water, or just insects.

Thanks to Turing's tired artistic talent, he is willing to squeeze out so much time every day to train himself in art and relax a little.

Although Turing has made some achievements in art, they pale in comparison to his outstanding performances in other fields.

But perhaps that's how someone with a fractured soul is. They see a mountain as a mountain, water as water, and what they draw always lacks something internal, just like the person who draws it.

From two o'clock to three o'clock is the time Turing spends on the way back home, which is not a simple task. Even if Turing is tired in the morning, his speed must not diminish.

If there are any tests or examinations at the academy, it adds even more pressure. Turing must be home by three o'clock.

After all, the prestigious noble etiquette teacher only arrives at Erisburg exactly at three o'clock and leaves at five o'clock. There is no way around it; Acadia people are strict about their work hours.

But even with this mode of studying, Turing doesn't always come first in exams or achievements—Diana always follows closely behind and occasionally surpasses him.

This always makes Turing wonder:

"What price has Diana paid?"

"I've worked so hard, how is she still ahead?"

"What qualities does she possess that make God favor her more than my efforts?"

After dinner at five o'clock in the afternoon, Turing may chat with his mother for a while. If someone pays careful attention, they would notice that although it is a regular mother-daughter conversation, there is an indescribable strangeness to it.

But if Oedipus has something to attend to, Turing would have to bring his bow and rifle and head to the private forest in the Altria Family's back mountain.But if you meet servants like Theresa, Wednesday, or Yelling Bell on the road, you can slow down a bit, talk, smoke, and learn about various family situations.

Although Acadia is not a martial arts school, subjects like archery are mandatory. Under this objective requirement, the best form of exercise is naturally hunting, a comprehensive training method.

Moreover, Acadia's monsters are magically enhanced, making training a double challenge. Even Turing cannot guarantee to come home on time every day.

In fact, the time Turing comes home mainly depends on what kind of prey Turing encounters. If it's rare, he will bring it back as a specimen. If it's ordinary, he is more likely to come back empty-handed.

There is even a special specimen room in the underground of Erisburg to store Turing's hunting trophies.

After returning around 8 or 9 at night, it is the time for Turing to cultivate cultural literacy and philosophical thinking.

Reading classics, learning formulas, completing assignments assigned by professors, and even writing articles and poetry, Turing's nights are peaceful and fulfilling.

On the days when Uncle Wednesday works the night shift, Turing also goes to the Overgrown Garden to study.

Listening to the buzzing of insects and Wednesday's chatter, ordinary people might be affected by such noise and unable to work properly, but it soothes Turing's perplexed heart.

Erisburg officially rests when Theresa, the senior housekeeper, personally brings Turing supper at eleven o'clock.

At this time, when all is quiet, and insects and birds are tired, Turing's candlelight blossoms quietly in the center of the Overgrown Garden.

After enduring the deep sleep of the servants and the summer insects, the solitude of this firework becomes particularly significant and has a character.

Solitude has never been lacking for Turing.

At midnight, Turing's hard day finally ends. Dragging his exhausted body back to his room, Turing cannot fall asleep peacefully like normal people.

Even with fervent prayers, Turing cannot escape the invasion of nightmares.

In fact, the more rampant the nightmares become, the more Turing prays; the more Turing prays, the more rampant the nightmares become. Terror is Turing's main impression of the night.

Although the nightmares do not come every night, it is precisely because of this that Turing becomes even more uneasy.

The content of the dreams is always different, but as soon as Turing wakes up, he has to forget.

Over time, Turing trembles unintentionally and loses focus unintentionally. Without a sense of security, he can only rely more on the only person he can rely on, his mother.

Perhaps for Turing, his presumed love for Oedipus is actually just a pathological dependency.

What kind of psychological world does a child who has not seen his father since childhood and lives in such pain have? We have no way of knowing.

For ordinary people, sleep, which is used for rest, has long been a burden for Turing.

You may think, how can someone in such a life be satisfied with the current situation?

But in reality, Turing is content with each day because he knows that compared to a more painful tomorrow, today has already ended...
