Chapter 3: The Woman Who Sustained Weber
Shinji will tell Weber about this not casually, but with deeper considerations.
One of the participants in the Xenomorph Holy Grail War, the most prominent character is none other than Webber's number one problem student, Flat. The Servant he summoned is also somewhat related to Shinji - Jack the Ripper of Berserker Ichisuke.
Flatt would go to war because he got the news from Webb, in other words, the news of the Xenomorph Grail War would reach Webb's ears beforehand. Give Webber a reminder first, if it really comes true, Weber will definitely contact him, so that he will not miss the opportunity to stir up the situation.
Webber's reaction was the same as Shinji's thoughts, and he looked thoughtfully at the safe in his office and said in a deep voice.
"I see, I'll keep an eye on it. β
"Just pay attention, don't pay too much attention. If you really want to participate, you can this winter - you would love to meet him, you would love to tell him about your accomplishments. β
Shinji was talking about the Fifth Holy Grail War that he and Estisa had been waiting for for a long time.
"This ......," Webb didn't answer, and was silent for a long time before sighing, "I'll think about it again." β
"Okay, I'll keep it for you. β
This is not the first time Shinji has persuaded Weber, nor is it the first time he has received such an answer. Knowing that he had concerns, he didn't say much, and stopped at the point. Everything that can be said has been said, everything that can be done has been done, and it depends on Weber himself whether he comes or not.
With him and the person who conquered the king, he won the frank and unrestrained and lost the convincing, and such a master and servant were the most desired participants in the war. Whether it is an alliance or not, whether it succeeds or fails, it will not be an obstacle to the purification of the Holy Grail.
"Thank you. β
"You're welcome, we've been friends for ten years, Elmeloy II. β
"How many times have you said it, don't use that title, why don't you just listen?"
"I and the two Lords asked you to take a vacation, and you didn't listen. β
Shinji said that he would "return the favor to the other in his own way", but in his heart he thought that because of his own inconvenience, Kenneth still survived and reached the peak of his life. You can't inherit the name of Elmeloi, and the Almeloi II who was popular in his previous life won't exist, at least let yourself remember him.
"Why did you come back again?" Webb recoiled, "if you really want me to take a vacation, let me check my homework, share the coursework, teach me courses related to the history of magic and the evolution of magic, you know more about this than a lecturer who specializes in history, I really don't know where you learned it." β
Because I have a master who has lived from the gods to the present day, and has been paying attention to the present worldβthis kind of thing cannot be spoken.
"Just put it in the afternoon, I don't have any plans lately. β
"It's not up to you to decide whether you have the arrangement or not, it depends on the eldest lady's side. β
The eldest lady is naturally the current Lord Barsermero, and Loreleia, who stands at the top of the clock tower, is also Shinji's only employer at the moment.
Since Kenneth successfully ascended to the "crown", he gradually reduced his activities in other areas and concentrated on academic research, and under his leadership, the entire Elmeloy faction gradually calmed down, rarely participating in factional struggles. The other factions will not provoke the "crown" who is in charge, such as the rising Elmeroy.
In such an environment, Shinji, who has always restrained himself and is reluctant to show his face, is of little effect. The communication between the two has gradually gotten rid of the relationship of interests and turned into a purely human relationship.
On the contrary, as Lorelea's control over the Laws and Politics Department deepens, she comes into contact with the dark side of the Clock Tower more and more, which gives Shinji more use. Although Loreleia hopes most that Shinji walks to the stage and officially becomes her right and left hand, Shinji just doesn't agree, and finally takes a step back.
Shinji continued to hide in the shadow of the Hosei Division until he became an adult, and he had to ensure a sufficient amount of work every year, and when he became an adult, he officially joined the Hosei Division and worked for Loreleia - only a handful of people knew about it, and Webb was one of them.
Hearing Weber's ridicule, Shinji rolled his eyes: "Hey, hey, I'm helping you share the pressure, with you-"
Before he could finish speaking, there was a knock on the door.
"-FXXK, you won't be right. β
"It's rude to swear in front of a lady, Mr. Kiri. β
There was a female voice outside the door, still with some immaturity. Although it sounds soft, there is no denying that she seems to be teasing the other party. There was excitement in her voice, but it was more doubtful that she had any intention of hiding it than that she couldn't hide it.
There is only one person who knows this voice - Rhaenys Archizorti, who was originally the heir to the Achizolti family of Achipolud, but soon after Kenneth's return, gave up the inheritance of the family and joined the Al Meloy classroom, which was still weak at the time, and became Weber's "sister-in-law".
"It's been a long time, Miss Rhaenys. β
"Long time no see, Mr. Kiri. β
Beautiful blonde hair spread out in the doorway, hands as white as porcelain lifted the hem of the skirt gracefully, and a pair of flaming eyes paused on Shinji for a moment before turning to Webb.
"Good afternoon, dear brother. β
Normally, it would be a very beautiful thing to have such a beautiful maiden greet you, but Webber seemed to see some great trouble, and his brow was furrowed deeper than the group of problematic students in the courtyard.
Seeing Webb like this, Rhaenys smiled even more happily.
"Brother, you're frowning again, it's going to add wrinkles. I don't want to get married when you're a terrible middle-aged man, and you're not a good match. β
"Ma'am, please stop joking. "Ma'am" is Weber's special name for Rhaenys, to show her respect.
But Leenys didn't eat it at all, and she put on a pitiful look, with obvious sadness on her pretty face.
"Oh, my dear brother, it makes me so sad that you say that. Don't you understand my heart? I-"
"Ma'am!" Webb couldn't help but accentuate his voice.
Lyeny finally relented and complained in a low voice: "I really don't understand the taste, I'm really worried about my married life." β
Webb felt his stomach hurt even more. All the students plus a piece is not as distressed as the girl in front of him, the students have personality problems at most, and this has risen to the height of the "devil" - just imagine, what girl will be from the age of 7 or 8 years to marry herself, a hang of 6 or 7 years.
What's even more excessive is that her demonic side will only target herself, and she will always be an elegant and decent lady outside, both in terms of actual performance and reputation, and in many cases she can even directly call the shots in place of Weber, and is jokingly called "the woman who supports Weber" and "Weber's young wife" and so on.
In this regard, Webb just wanted to say: "Who wants to marry this 'little devil', I don't want to die young yet!"
