Having received its own name, the magic mushroom bloomed after some time - its stem seemed to thicken, and on it appeared a mouth, eyes, and even tiny little arms and legs. 

However... Contrary to its cute appearance, its language turned out to be quite the opposite. 
- What kind of Jack *****? Are you out of your mind? Or do you enjoy tormenting those weaker than you? ***** well, how am I supposed to live with this name now? Could have been someone like Akkad Babbar syn Zababa mer Lahara or "Richard Dragonheart" at the very least, but no - so I'm Jack. Jack. Do you understand? Now I have to live my whole toadstool life with this name. The only way out of such a hopeless situation is to gouge out my eye, put a patch on it, and become a pirate. That's it. I have no other options. 

—That’s very progressive, isn’t it… —the southerner said, slightly encouraged. —Then please sign me up for economics.

– I am very flattered that the first thing you did upon meeting me was to assess your sexual capabilities, Mr. Faineant. But I am a model for the Lane family, not some loose woman, if you happened to mistake me for someone else. From my perspective, it's been a while since I've seen your new works, so I came to ask if I could help in your difficult creative endeavor. Usually, I enjoy being painted,– Camistella said in a bored tone.

- Uh... you see... I, uh... I've never seen talking mushrooms before. I've never heard of "Accad Babbarov" or "Dragon Hearts" or any other "mushroom names." - Erika said, recovering from the shock.
- Don't worry so much. Jack is a normal name. And it's quite common among people, not just pirates. So everything will be fine, don't worry. - she continued.
- Tell me, where did you grow up and how did you learn to talk?

- The economy, excellent. - A foreign girl took a pocketbook from the shelf and handed it to Asmidul, along with a pen - not hers, but one for writing. - This is a student ID, fill in the appropriate fields with your name, date and place of birth, and height.

- Well, well, it's nothing. To leave your homeland, come to a foreign country, get used to its culture, understand and accept its customs - all of this is very difficult, but you are still doing great trying. Just your kind smile inspires our students to not miss classes," Asmidul winked, "isn't that right?"

- Really? Would you want to be called Jack? I don't think so...

I grew up here, under the house where you bought me. 25 rem... Is that all my life is worth? It's incredible how insignificant one mushroom is compared to the weight of the whole world.

And I learned... Magic, baby.

– Yes, technological progress creates some difficulties for pure art, – Kamistella agreed. – What kind of posing are you interested in? Female anatomy is quite interesting. How closely do you wish to examine it, Mr. Phainant? In my attire, in something from your collection, or perhaps to the taste of the enigmatic Scryers, who, I suppose, are not very concerned with clothing?

–...I-I'm sorry, but why do you need to know my height? – the boy stammered, taking the book.

–...And you, Professor, also teach one of the subjects? – he then turned to the new face. – Sorry for my curiosity, but from your appearance, I would like to think of you as one of the researchers of the ancient magic Temples, but I don't see such a program in the list...

– My name is Erika. And no one asked me when they gave me a name. So, you can say that we are in the same situation. I don't feel any discomfort from this. I think you will be fine too, – Erika replied.

– Look at it from another angle. For 25 gems, they sold you, and now you're standing here talking to me. They could have made mushroom soup instead. And completely free, without any names. So, it's not all that bad, you have to agree.

– I see. And how old are you? Or how many days? How quickly do you mushrooms grow?

- Well, it's been just a few minutes since you gave me a name, so you can say I was just born.

- And do you know what that means? It means today is my birthday... So?.. Where's my gift?
