Chapter 35: The Invitation
It sounds like a light-hearted word, but it contains heavy content that is enough to change the power ratio of the clock tower.
The El Meloy Classroom may not be as powerful as the long-established magician family on the surface, but its potential influence cannot be underestimated, and if either side can encircle it, it will undoubtedly have a head start on the future. This is a fact recognized by the higher-ups of the clock tower, and it is not without the great men who have acted on it, but none of them have been as direct and casual as the old woman.
"Good intentions. I'm just a teacher with no magical talents, and I'm very satisfied to be able to teach my students like this, and I don't dare to have extravagant expectations. β
Weber's answer was deliberate and skillful, and seemed to have been repeated many times.
"Excessive modesty can make people feel hypocritical, young man. β
The old man said with a smile, but Weber's face was full of bitterness.
"It's not modesty, it's a bit of a fluke that I was able to get the sacrifice. β
"Hehe, people who say that are shallow and ignorant fools. In my opinion, there are few magicians who are more suitable for this rank than you. The fourth order in the Kabbalah Tree of Life (Sephiroth) is the Tiphareth, which represents beauty, beauty is what you and your teachings are, and you are guaranteed as an artist. β
"Thank you for the compliment. β
Webber's expression looked much soothed, but Leenys could tell that his mood was actually worse.
Taking his own low rank as the starting point, he didn't expect to be countered by the opposite general, and it was a coffin--when it comes to beauty, how many people are more professional than this creative science lord who studies aesthetics? This is a typical self-inflicted experience.
"Butβ"
"Don't be in a hurry to refuse. β
The old man shook the wine glass in his hand, and his movements revealed a kind of boldness that other lords did not have.
"Since the master has come to invite you, he is naturally ready to cover you. In this way, you don't need to take a stand, as long as you can give priority to give lectures to the master, and the master can give you one or two classrooms. β
Rhaenys's eyes lit up instantly, and even Webb was a little moved, this condition was simply too generous. All the power of the classroom is not a big deal, but the classrooms owned by Baruyereta are all attached to the few spiritual places of the clock tower, which is exactly what the modern magic department lacks. You must know that Webber almost went bankrupt recently for the sake of spiritual land, and if it weren't for Shinji's ability to make up for the hole by taking advantage of the Stripping City incident, Webber would probably have to live in debt for a long time.
"I ...... Think about it. β
It took Webb a few seconds to make this answer, not sure if he really intended to think about it or if he was just procrastinating.
"Then I'll wait for good news. Although there are some political considerations in inviting you, your own 'beauty' is also an important factor, and there is no more suitable place than us. β
"I'll keep that in mind. β
Hearing Enolai's words, Webber nodded respectfully.
At this timeβ
"That. β
- A very polite voice sounded.
Seeing that it was Grey, Inolai motioned for her to continue.
"Well, what's wrong?"
"Why, isn't Baruyeta aristocratic?"
"Hmm. β
Grey's question almost scared Webb and Rhaenys' jaws off.
"Grid, Grey......"
"I've heard that the magicians in the Creation Section (Baruye) are basically artists. Isn't the artist closer to the aristocracy?"
What a simple question. Plain and deadly, like a poisoned bamboo spear, it has the destructive power to crush the carefully forged barrier from the weakest point with a single blow, and even the natural Flatt and Sfen are stunned.
But Inolai let out a hearty laugh.
"Oh, yes, you! I haven't heard this question in decades!"
The laughter was so hearty that it even drew a few magicians to turn around.
However, seeing that it was the famous heroine of the clock tower, Lord Baruyeretta, no one dared to look at her.
Inolai didn't care about the magicians who turned their heads in a panic, she spoke.
"Because art must first touch the hearts of the people of its time. β
"People of your time, huh?"
Looking at Grey, who tilted her head, the old woman nodded generously.
"That's right. Although it has been said that true art can withstand the baptism of time. But that's not art anymore. It should be called history. Of course, history has its respectable value, and the guys like aristocracy take it seriously, but that's not what we're after. β
The old woman's eyes narrowed.
The word value is not only based on reality and history, it also gazes at ideals on distant grounds, she said with conviction.
"Beauty is wonderful. Even if it's just for a moment, mere existence has value. All we have to do is walk through this moment. In the same way, the present era should be handed over to the people of the present to run, and not to stick to the lineage of the past, this is our belief. β
The loud speech was full of the pride of being the leader of the faction, the magician.
ββ¦β¦ I think I might get it. β
Grey nodded.
Although her statement was vague, it was clear from her expression that she had thought about it seriously.
"Oooh. Ye is very pleased. Since you are a disciple of Velvett, you are always welcome to come and play. β
Enolai also said cheerfully, but her eyes were serious.
Webber and Rhaenys' eyes became even more distressed by this, because the initiative was completely in the hands of such old women. Just when the two of them felt unwilling, a figure intervened.
Byron Baruyereta Izeluma.
"Here you are, Lady Enolai. β
"Oh, Bai Longqing, tonight is quite pleasant. β
The old woman drank the whiskey in one gulp, and Byron leaned his face close to her and whispered.
"There's something I want to tell you. β
"Oh. β
The next whisper caused a subtle change in Inolai's expression.
"Then, the master will take his leave firstβsee you later. Professor Velvett and excellent students. β
The old woman bared her neat white teeth and smiled at the group led by Weber.
It wasn't until the backs of the two of them disappeared into the banquet hall that Webber pulled his tie and gasped for some breath.
"Phew, what a disaster - ma'am, do you usually spend your time like this?"
Normally, Rhaenys would have replied with words like "Ahhhhh
"How is it possible, that's the lord. This time, it is for the sake of her brother's face that she will come forward in person, and the most I can say is to contact a branch family leader like Byron. β
"All in all, thank you. β
"Nothing, get used to it. β
Seeing this kind of scene that he would never normally see, Shinji couldn't help but laugh.
"Two honest guys, wouldn't it be nice to be so frank earlier? Although romantic comedies are not bad, life should still be like this. Well, I invited you to watch the show, but I didn't expect to see one myself, not bad. β
"Hey, Shen Er!!"
"Leave me alone, Mr. Kiri. β
The two of them who had been fatally hit had forgotten their disguises, and the embarrassed look made Flat, Sphine, and Grey laugh out loud.
"Aha, Leni is shy. β
"The professor has that look on his face. β
"But it doesn't feel bad. β
"yes, yes. β
"You !!," Webber finally became angry, "go back to your homework and double, double it!!"
In this regard, everyone expressed calmness.
Isn't it just doubling the homework? I've been used to it for a long time. In Flatt's words, "Increasing homework is a way for teachers to encourage students in their own way." So everyone finished their homework happily.
I have to say that the atmosphere in the Al Meloy classroom is really good, shouldn't the so-called students study hard and complete their homework seriously? Don't follow those Japanese high school students, who don't do their homework all day long, and do everything to not go to class and study hard!
That's right.,That's what I'm talking about.,Shinji Makiri.,You're hanging on the student registration of Suiqunyuan School Park.,I haven't been to class for a few days so far.,I'm embarrassed to say it's a high school student? Learn more from your peers around you.γ
