"I'm so sorry that you were kind enough to invite us, but it ended up like this. ”

Outside the lecture hall of the auditorium, listening to Isaac's "impassioned" shouting, the black-haired wizard looked at Gray Sal, who was also at a loss, and sighed helplessly:

"Isaac Grantham is the most accomplished of the three of us, and I was hoping that he would open the door first so that you could accept us foreign wizards, but I didn't expect ......"

"In short, the responsibility lies with me, and it has nothing to do with the two of them, please don't doubt the sincerity of our trip, it is really ......"

The middle-aged wizard waved his hand very weakly, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Your Excellency Loren Turin, you don't need to say, if you really doubt your sincerity, I won't be standing here now." ”

"What's more, there is fault on our side as well - recall, it is likely that it was my words when I came that angered him that he had caused Lord Isaac Grantham to do such an excesse, and with the apprentice's provocation, the fault is not entirely yours. ”

"And His Excellency Isaac is indeed a real learner, and it is an eye-opener for us to have such a occult wizard willing to visit the Academy. ”

Very well, it seems that the other party really has the will to form an alliance... If that's the case, it's much easier.

An imperceptible smile flashed across the black-haired wizard's lips, but there was still a relieved expression on his face.

Unlike the Nine-Pointed Star Wizarding Tower, which held the real power of a principality and could sense a clear threat, the Royal Wizarding Academy of Golovin was completely under the protection of the royal family and was sought after by the nobles of the imperial capital, and possessed extremely large wealth without real power.

Able to work for the aristocracy, supporting their families on their own and with what they have learned, as for those who look at them with contempt, jealousy, and hostility...... Patience can be passed.

It's only the apprentice who refutes Isaac, but... His idea is definitely not unique.

After all, as Corona once described, wizards are not inherently a violent group, and even if they are assembled as a force, they are not even as hungry for power as the merchants - otherwise, how could Ebolden be dominated by the Free Council instead of the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower?

What about the wizards of Golovin, who are even the visionary wizards who can tolerate the alliance with the free nobles to rule Ebolden, and who are in the imperial capital and the stronghold of the Holy Cross Church?

The Royal Wizarding Academy of Golovin, who was so content with the status quo, Loren thought that it would take a lot of effort to win it over, but it turned out to be so easy, which was completely beyond his expectations.

It seems that they are not really happy, but they are forced to be helpless to "settle for the status quo"......

"If you can, can you let the two Excellencies Ain Rand and Isaac Grantham stay at the Royal Wizarding Academy of Goloven as 'temporary mentors'?"

"Huh?" the black-haired wizard was stunned for a moment, looking at Gray Sal with a sincere expression.

"Oh, that's just an offer... If you don't want to, you can refuse. The middle-aged wizard smiled modestly: "I just thought of it because of His Excellency Isaac's words. ”

"In order to serve the royal family and many prominent nobles to the fullest, the college has abandoned the occult for a long time. ”

"I want to... Maybe it's time to start over. ”

As the words fell, a calm-eyed Gray Sal looked meaningfully at the black-haired wizard.

Slightly hooked the corners of his mouth, Loren raised his eyebrows: "I can't advocate for them for this kind of thing, but I think the two of them should be happy... Isaac, in particular, is extremely show-off. ”

"Geniuses are all the same, they love applause and admiring glances. The middle-aged wizard, who understood very well, chuckled and shook his head.

"By the way, do you know the apprentice who confronted Isaac head-on?"

"Of course I know, his name is Thran Corvo, the chief apothecary of the Golovin Apothecary, the son of Master Lussac Corvo. ”

The middle-aged wizard nodded: "Master Lussac Kovo is not only an excellent alchemist and apothecary, but also an excellent doctor, very famous in Golovin - even His Majesty Eckhart once invited him to become the royal physician, but he refused. ”

"Oh, why?"

"Actually, there aren't many reasons... Master Kovo hates politics very much, and becoming an imperial physician is bound to be implicated by the forces in the palace. Gray Sal said as if jokingly:

"Of course, there are also those who are jealous of him who say that the master is unwilling to give up the Apothecary Guild - after all, he is already the next president of the inner design, and with this title and his reputation, he must earn more money than an imperial doctor. ”

Loren's eyes widened, but his heart finally understood.

No wonder he stood up in front of everyone... Presumably he is very proud of his father, who has brought a rich life to his family and helped countless people, right?

"Lord Loren, you suddenly want to know this, could it be ......"

"No, you're mistaken. The black-haired wizard, who knew the other party's thoughts, hurriedly waved his hand: "It's not right for Isaac to deliberately provoke the other party, he is only doing this to protect the honor of the alchemist and his father, and we definitely don't have the intention of embarrassing him." ”

"And... Being able to stand up when everyone is silent is admirable in itself. ”

"That's great. The middle-aged wizard smiled happily and breathed a sigh of relief: "Originally, I was worried that you would think of him because of this matter, but in fact, Therland Corvo's apprentice is very ......."

"Gray Sal followed, and it was better not to continue going around in circles. ”

The smiling black-haired wizard interrupted the other softly, and looked at the middle-aged wizard in four eyes: "I know what you invited us to the Royal Wizarding Academy for, and I know that it is not a 'coincidence' that you will appear in the Summer Twilight Courtyard, right?"

This time, the middle-aged wizard finally changed color: "Your Excellency Loren Turin, we ......"

"I advise you not to be so anxious, from the Summer Twilight Courtyard to the Academy, countless pairs of eyes are staring at you and me...... He was also staring at the one in the Heavenly Dome Palace. ”

The smile on Gray Sal's face faded, and finally a little more serious: "Is this your idea, or... What does that person in the Heavenly Dome Palace think?"

Slowly raising the corners of his mouth, just as the black-haired wizard was about to speak, an apprentice suddenly ran over in a hurry, looking panicked:

"Mentor Gray, there's an outsider who says he wants to see Lord Loren Turin—from the Heavenly Dome!"

Heavenly Dome Palace?!

Loren jerked his head up and looked at the apprentice: "That outsider, what does he look like?!"

"I haven't seen it, it's cold-spoken, oh yes, it looks like an Eberden man......"

"Thank you!"

Without waiting for the apprentice to finish speaking, the black-haired wizard directly threw down the middle-aged wizard and turned around, running wildly in the direction where the apprentice came.

"Tutor Gray, I ......"

"It's nothing, you're doing well, go down. ”

Gray Sal, who also had a solemn expression, waved his hand to let the apprentice leave, and involuntarily raised his head to look at the Heavenly Dome Palace on the hill not far away;

Really...... Before Loren could walk to the gate of the academy, the indifferent Edward broke in directly, with a little nervousness in his eyes:

"Loren Turin, how are you in the mood to come here?! Now the entire imperial capital is staring at His Highness Brandon's eyes, if ......"

"Don't talk about that yet, I'll explain that later. Stopping the other party with one hand, the black-haired wizard's expression was serious:

"First question, is His Highness Brandon back?"

The indifferent night watchman bowed slightly: "The audience is over... I didn't get into the Sky Dome Palace, but from the night watchman's insider, the whole process went smoothly. ”

"But... Really?" Loren raised an eyebrow.

Although the other party didn't say it, just Edward's expression and the other party's hurried running to find him proved that there was definitely a problem.

“...... Let His Highness Brandon tell you personally. For some reason, the black-haired wizard saw a hint of confusion in Edward's eyes:

"Your Highness is in the Summer Twilight Courtyard at the moment, and if I were you, I wouldn't delay any longer. ”
