Academy of Magic Chapter 5: Game of Thrones

Previous Chapter

Wizarding Academy, Dragoon Ranch.

Felix put away the letter he had seen in the classroom this morning, and at dusk, he was "invited" to this place.

Sit on the bench on the side, keep your head down, and play with the magic cards in your hand to kill time.

It seems that the people of the "Twelve Heavenly Palace" reacted really quickly, what happened yesterday is a little unbearable today, and now they are blatantly inviting themselves here, or are they already ready to plan?

In this sparsely populated pasture, a tall blonde man easily caught Felix's eyes.

I saw that the man's face was as carved as a carving, with a pair of slender peach blossom eyes, a high nose bridge, a blue uniform, straddling the dragoon, looking handsome.

The moment their eyes met, Felix saw the identity on his student ID.

Class 1, Sutton Rachel.

He had heard the name discussed by others, and this person seemed to be the class leader of Class 1. From this point of view, there is no doubt that this person is the "Twelve Heavenly Palaces".

"Without a student ID, you must be Your Excellency Felix. ”

Sutton smiled and said in an unusually gentle tone. No matter how you look at it, this man sitting on the dragoon looks like a gentleman.

Seeing that the other party was so suave, even if it was a person from the "Twelve Heavenly Palaces", Felix couldn't be tough at this time.

So he stood up and saluted back: "Sutton Rachel, it's a pleasure to meet here. ”

Sutton smiled slightly, perhaps because he felt that it was a little inappropriate for him to ride on a dragoon and chat with Felix like this, a little condescending, so he suggested that the other party needed to find a dragoon, and the two chatted as they walked.

Felix thought it was a good idea, after all, he hadn't ridden a dragoon in a long time. This kind of wild beast that has been tamed by people will always be the most loyal companion of mankind.

After pulling a dragoon out of the shed, Felix rode it up skillfully. In the ranch, the dragoons here have been tamed very gently, so they will not be too resistant to the people who ride on them.

The two of them first ran wildly in the vast pasture, and only when they reached the trail did they reduce their speed and move forward side by side.

Riding on a dragoon, walking on a long trail, facing the sunset, is a very pleasant enjoyment.

"Tell me, what do you want to do?"

Felix spoke first, breaking the silence.

"Rodriguez, I've heard of this surname. ”

Sutton didn't answer Felix's question directly, but instead answered it differently.

I have to say that this sentence has already aroused the interest of Lian Felix, "Oh? ”

"I know that sixteen years ago, there was a powerful Magister who also had this surname. ”

As Sutton spoke, Felix felt no other meaning, but a simple sense of adoration. The eyes that shone with light, but they were full of awe.

"How will you know?"

Ace Rodriguez, about this long-ago name, even Felix himself does not have the slightest impression. Before he was born, this irresponsible man died on the so-called battlefield. Perhaps, in the end, his "father" still doesn't know about his birth. But why, every time my mother mentions this man, she feels so proud? Why, when the man I have never met in front of me, I always admire that person? Why, I don't know anything about this man, what kind of person he is?

"He saved my father's life, he saved the entire Rachel family. ”

Sutton's tone suddenly became deep and solemn. Looking at Felix, he exhaled, and continued:

"So, for his sake, I don't want you to get involved in a power struggle. ”

At this moment, Felix's expression was complicated, his face was full of questions, and the content of today's conversation was completely beyond his imagination.

"What do you mean?"

"You're not from the royal capital, are you?"

Sure enough, Sutton still didn't answer Felix's question directly.

"I've lived in the border area since I was a child, so what?"

Sutton sighed, "No wonder, you're being foolishly taken advantage of. ”

"In the royal capital, everyone knows that the king has no children under his knees, and his body is getting weaker and weaker, and a new round of power change is only a matter of time. Now the only people who have the right to compete for the throne are the king's seventeenth brother, Ren Akatsuki, and the son of the king's eldest brother, Cole Leonis. It's a pity that Lotus Akatsuki's strength is no longer something that Cole can compete with. So for the throne, it has basically been set as the heir. What's more, Ren Akatsuki has already come to the Magic Guidance Academy, and as long as he graduates, he will be the new king. Do you think Cole will still sit at this time?"

"What do you mean......"

"Yes, who would want Lotus Akatsuki's life the most at this moment? So, don't fall victim to a power struggle, I'm sure you're not interested in the throne, right?"

Felix pondered for a moment and sneered, "So, are you here to renew your life for Lotus Akatsuki? But unfortunately, I won't believe the words of the 'Twelve Heavenly Palaces'. ”

"Hahaha," Sutton smiled in relief, "I know I'm in my camp right now, and you won't believe what I say." After all, there were people from the 'Twelve Heavenly Palaces' who wanted your life last night. However, I still have to tell you that I am only forced by the current situation, and the Rachel family will always be loyal to the royal family, and it is by no means a one-party dispute. I don't care if Ren Akatsuki is dead or alive, I just don't want you to wade into this muddy water. With all due respect, which of these two people becomes king is a disaster for the dynasty, because both of them are brutal people.

As for the territory, the Holy Dynasty has obviously unified the West, but it is still at war for many years, so that there is no peaceful place on the border, and there is no day for the countries to live in peace. Among the crown princes, only the ninth princess has a heart of mercy, if she can be the king, she will care about the world. Alas, alas, others will not give her a chance. ”

Sometimes, the feeling of the heart cannot be disguised. Just like at this point, Felix felt Sutton's heartfelt lament.

"You support the Ninth Princess?"

"Yes, the Rachel family will never want to see war spread again. But, Felix, this is an internal struggle of the royal family, don't get involved. I know you just want to get into Class 0, and I assure you, Ren Akatsuki won't bother you. ”

"Will it?"

"I'll figure it out. ”

"You don't really want me to upset the balance between the two camps, you want them to consume each other. ”

Sutton laughed dumbly, and replied in a loud voice, "Yes! Felix, what do you think?"

"I'm actually a very selfish person, I just want to enter Class 0 and inherit the family legacy. So, I won't be interested in your struggle for power. But, Sutton Rachel, listen, I won't allow innocent blood to flow in front of me, do you understand?"

"Well, that's it, I'm just like you!"

On the way back to the ranch, Sutton seemed to think of something, and looked a little melancholy.

"Felix, do you know about the 'Royal War' twenty-six years ago?"

"I've heard a little. ”

"Twenty-six years ago, the first king and the eldest prince suddenly died violently. In front of the vacant throne, the princes did not hesitate to fight for supreme power. With the end of the decade-long 'royal war', it was the Seven Princes who ascended to the supreme throne of power. And under the baptism of this war, magic completely replaced martial arts, and there is today's era. It's just that now that I think about it, I always feel that this is a long-premeditated conspiracy, but I can't say what it was for. If it was only for the sake of causing royal strife, then why didn't any neighbouring countries invade during the 'royal war', and why did they take such a great risk to assassinate the former king if they did not come for this purpose?"

"You're saying there's a bigger game behind this?"

"Yes, it's a fog that can't be seen. ”
