Chapter 5: The Inner Ring Council of Icewind Castle
At this time, the spacious venue, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people, was full of people. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It resembles an egg-shaped venue from a previous life, with seats arranged in a circular staircase, with the lowest speaker chair illuminated by a bright magical lantern.
At the front of the hall, there were a dozen or so tall seats inlaid with the mythical silver drawings of the inner ring of Icewind Castle, which belonged to the masters. Charlotte, on the other hand, sat in it as the new master.
Claire sat in the councillor's seat at the back of the master's bench, and beside him, a beautiful woman with long lake-blue hair and a delicate tear mole on her cheek was talking to him gracefully.
"Mage Claire, it won't be long before you can sit in that seat, right?" She is the female mage Illya, known as the flower of Icewind Castle, whose beauty and wisdom have been recognized and sought after by the mages of Icewind Castle.
"Probably. Claire nodded coldly, and said to himself, 'But you won't see that day,' because he had arrived in the far north before that.
Illya did not flinch from Claire's indifference, but pulled the ends of her hair, showing the most feminine side of women, "Speaking of which, Claire, you are really an out-and-out genius." Earlier than the Grand Duke's exposure to magic, the speed at which he could be promoted did not lag behind. Not only that, but he is also recognized as the most authoritative soul master in Icewind Castle. ”
She turned her head to look at Claire, her watery eyes filled with a moist breath, "Claire, you will definitely become a legend." ”
"Is it just a legend?" Claire didn't look back, listening to the master's discussion of her research like a serious student, "besides, Charlotte didn't come into contact with magic much earlier than me. ”
Illya was stunned, and she smiled awkwardly, "What a great ambition! Well, and a commendable belly and friendship! Claire, you are such a rare and excellent man." ”
"Isn't the outside world's evaluation of me an indifferent necrophil?" Claire's expression stiffened in response to Illya's obvious show of affection, drawing a line with this impersonal language.
Illya was so embarrassed that she forced a smile and said, "You love to laugh! No matter what others say, but in my opinion, you are the most faithful companion and the most reliable man!"
"Thank you for the compliment, ma'am. ”
Claire gestured to the speaker's seat, and by this time, the speeches of the masters on politics and scholarship had ended, and Dema, as the chief mage, had already walked up to the table with a straight face and a barren chest.
"But I think it's better to be quiet and listen to the Chief Mage at such a solemn moment. What do you think?"
No matter how warm the hot springs are, they can become cold when they meet the Arctic ice. Illya closed her mouth aggrievedly, staring at Dema who was about to speak for a moment, in order to relieve her embarrassment of failing to show her love again.
Hum -
There was a roar from the magic loudspeaker, and Dema tried to hear it, and when she coughed, the room that had been whispering fell silent.
This is a necessary respect for the strong.
"What the masters have just said is wonderful!...... past year," Dema looked down at the manuscript in her hand, and people could clearly hear her muttering, "What is this about?"
She raised her head and said in a very irresponsible manner, "In short, in the past year, Icewind Castle has created a number of tax revenues, the major master towers have obtained a number of new researches, and the magic items made have been exported to other countries. The political strength, military strength, and especially academic research of Icewind Castle have reached a higher level, which is gratifying and gratifying. ”
The audience was in an uproar.
Someone in the venue muttered, "It's a mistake to let the chief adult come to the stage to summarize, it's better to be the second adult!"
"What a ghost!" someone immediately retorted, "Let the second lord come to the stage, and the report can last all day!"
There are also those who are not afraid of death who think that there are many people who cannot be noticed, and they question loudly in the boiling voice, "What the hell are some!
This newcomer doesn't seem to know how terrible legends are!
As soon as Dema looked up, her eyes stared at the questioning young mage, and the three-second stare made the man sweat and regret it.
"Huh, what are you?" Dema raised the manuscript in her hand, "Aren't these reports sent to everyone? Don't you know how to read them yourself? Or do you mean that you are illiterate at all? Hmph! What is the difference between an illiterate mage and a salted fish! If I were you, I would climb directly to the top of the central tower and jump down! Oh - forget it, you unqualified salted fish don't even have the qualifications to enter the third floor or more!"
The audience was silent, and the man who was attacked by Dema's poisonous tongue was completely ruined, and in an instant, he almost had negative thoughts such as 'Ah, it turns out that I am not a mage at all, just a salted fish'.
After Dema finished scolding, she no longer paid attention to the man's interest. She looked around the room, and when she saw Charlotte smiling at the new master's table, she suddenly showed a mocking smile.
"Oh oh! I almost forgot, there's something to be happy about lately!" she looked at Charlotte with that perverted smile of revenge, "A genius who ran away and caused my sister and me to be scolded bloody has become the youngest master in the history of Icewind Castle!"
People were talking to each other in the room, staring at Charlotte, who was sitting in the new master's seat. I really can't understand who has such terrible authority in Icewind Castle that can scold the two legends of Dema and Dinah to the blood.
Don't be kidding, she's just a mortal, even if she's in a high position, she won't dare to insult the legend if she has the guts to give her another dare.
In fact, they guessed right!
Even if Charlotte and Claire were in a hurry, they couldn't compare to Sylvia's extremely convenient teleportation spell.
When Sylvia returns to Icewind Castle and doesn't see Charlotte, Dema and Dinah know they can't hide it. So Sylvia, who has always been cold and unwilling to talk to Dema and Dinah, reprimanded the two sisters with an indifferent attitude.
"It's amazing. The two legends who possess the vast majority of the authority of Icewind Castle together can't stand two high-level mages. ”
Although it was not an excessive accusation, Dema was so ashamed that she almost wanted to kill herself!
So for half a year, about the problems in soul research, Claire knocked on the side of the two legends. And Charlotte and the two maids have a relationship that is almost freezing.
"So, we're proud of our new masters!" said Dema, propped up the table with her hands on her hands, looking condescendingly at Charlotte in the master's seat.
You don't have to guess to know that Dema has used a levitation spell or put a chair under her feet, otherwise with her height, everyone will probably only see her pink dull hair.
She had a sinister smile on her face, "Why don't you come up and give a speech and talk about your latest spell research by the way?"
"Ahh Then his eyes lit up, and he suddenly smiled, "That's right! It's that Charlotte Intermittent Soul Loss Technique!"
"Let's talk, Master Charlotte, tell me how you came up with this spell that can make you amnesia from time to time!"
Mages who had long heard of this great name of spell could not help but let out a gasp of laughter, although they tried their best to maintain a basic respect for a master and the heir of the Ice Castle.
They applauded, and the faces of the vast majority of the people turned the color of pig liver.
Charlotte straightened her collar amid applause, and she paced unhurriedly toward the table with a gloomy face.
In the moment of staggering past Dema, Charlotte lowered her head and swiped her right hand over Dema's head, which happened to be under her heart.
Then, with a slight snort of overlooking pride, he stepped up to the floor amid Dema's angry eyes.
