“...... These are the rosters of the local wizarding guild of the Red Blood Castle, as well as a list of all the materials and scrolls, so please check them out. ”

Holding a thick pile of documents, the "interim president" of the wizard tower, Cowell Freiswalker, who was dressed in red wizard robes, respectfully handed it to the black-haired wizard in front of him, without a slight.

"I really wronged you for a special trip. Taking the document, Loren smiled formulaically at the other party: "To be honest, at first I thought you would try your best to oppose it, what a relief." ”

"Whereever, the one who is really relieved should be me. Cowell smiled bitterly and shook his head: "To be honest, your willingness to take over this mess is what we never expected." ”

While talking, the two were polite again, pretending to be snakes touting each other.

The Crimson Castle Wizard Tower, or the president's room on the top floor of the Crimson Castle Wizards Guild - Loren had been here once to investigate vampire cases, but the difference was that it was the crime scene the last time he came, and from today onwards this room is his own office.

Byrne's wizarding organization is different from other places, it is more scattered, only the independent wizarding associations of each county are not strong and weak, and in order to deal with the upcoming counterattack of the United Chamber of Commerce of Ebolden and the Yod Chamber of Commerce, Loren needs the strength of local wizards to be on his side.

Although the wizard tower of the Red Blood Castle is very weak, not even a single academy, but with the addition of this "interim president", there are also ten mentor-level wizards and more than forty apprentices, which is already the largest "association" of Byrne.

Unexpectedly, when he had just expressed a little hope that the local wizarding association would join forces with him, the other party couldn't wait to ask him if he would like to take over the position of president and lead the local wizarding association.

Loren, of course, smiled unceremoniously.

Cowell Freiswalker finally breathed a sigh of relief, after his uncle, who was the president, died inexplicably at the hands of a vampire, he was worried from morning to night, afraid that he would be targeted by others!

Although the two Freiswalker families in Crimson and Eberden are blood relatives, they have rarely interacted with each other since Master Robert Freiswalker left Byrne... This was originally the norm in the wizarding world, but the relationship between wizards from the same academy and division was more intimate than bloodline.

Therefore, in addition to being insensitive to power by nature as a wizard, he also has the intention of saving his life - the latter may have more elements, not to mention that a small local wizarding association is not a royal academy, how much power does it have?

And Colwill Freswalker has also thought carefully, behind Loren Turin is His Royal Highness Brandon de Salion and the Turin family, and more recently the Corona family in Ebolden... No matter how you look at it, it feels safer than going to Governor Byrne.

Even if something happens, with the status of the Corona family in Ebolden, it is impossible to leave them alone... In any case, after all, as a wizard, it is always reassuring to be able to have a relationship with the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower, not to mention the guarantee of the young lady of the Corona family!

Looking at the "interim president" who was secretly relieved, the smiling black-haired wizard did not debunk his thoughts to his face - it was better to say that the other party could think like this, but he could save a lot of effort, and he didn't have to go to the trouble of getting a whole group of people in the association to agree with him.

Of course, this is only temporary... Even with the help of Corona and Ebolden's prestige, Loren had no intention of making wedding dresses for others.

"It may be presumptuous to say that, Lord Cowell Freiswalk... When the handover is complete, can I invite you to be my deputy?"

"Of course!" Cowell looked surprised and hurriedly expressed his determination: "It is an honor to be able to serve such a prestigious person as Viscount Loren. ”

Wizards are mostly realistic, and if given a choice, Cowell certainly wouldn't want to be just an ordinary guild member.

"That's great. A formulaic smile spread across Loren's face: "Although I'm half a Byrne, I've just come back after all, and I don't know a lot about it - if you want to expand the influence and strength of the Wizarding Association, you still need your help." ”

"Influence?" Cowell was slightly stunned, then tentatively said, "You... Are you going to unite all the wizards in the vicinity of the local area and bring them under the name of the Guild?"

"Your Excellency Cowell, you are very clever. Loren curled the corners of his mouth and placed the file on the table:

"Why has the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower, which focuses on research, been able to control and influence the politics of Eberden for the past thousand years... Why do the wizards of Golovin in the Holy Land of the Church have a place in the Imperial Cabinet?"

"Quite simply, because they are very closely connected to the local rulers, and at the same time they have very good alliances with the Chamber of Commerce and Union, and they are very united. ”

"For this reason, if you want the local wizarding association to really rise, you must first unite - half-coercive, half-inducing nearby wizards to become members of the association, at least to grasp the movements of every wizard in the neighborhood and what they have been doing recently, reward the behavior of increasing the prestige of the association, and then crack down on actions that damage the image of wizards, and establish real authority. ”

"So I'm going to trouble you next, Lord Cowell... How many wizards are there near the Red Blood Castle?"

"If you count the wandering wizards, it's probably... There were about forty people, and almost a hundred apprentices. Cowell frowned slightly, his face embarrassed:

"But the level of these people is uneven, and if they are forced to join the association, it will be a lot of expenses just to provide salaries and experimental work, and I am afraid that with the current strength of the association, it will be ......."

"No, just let them register in the association... I've discussed this with the local church, and they'll help us. Loren shook his head:

"As for the question of the source of funding... In addition to self-reliance, additional sponsorship was needed, and by the time the United Chamber of Commerce at Ebotden was officially established in the Red Blood Castle, the problem would no longer be a problem. ”

"You, you mean ......"

"At present, it is good that the two sides will cooperate, and then the association can have a certain stake in the chamber of commerce, according to the profit cut of each quarter... Of course, if it is the other party's order, the association must also give priority to the processing and give preferential and reduced prices, what do you think?"

"Very well, this couldn't be better!" Cowell said, his shocked expression and a hint of ecstasy.

He still knows a little about the trade of Ebolden, and being able to get the support of the other party means that he will no longer have to worry about funds and materials in the future!

While excited, his expression when he looked at the black-haired wizard also had a hint of admiration and convincing... In any case, being able to convince the Corona family to lend a hand is enough to prove that the other party is indeed qualified to become the president.

And that's what Loren needs... As long as he holds on to the source of funds, he no longer has to worry about the loyalty of the wizards in the guild.

Well...... Judging from the time, eighty percent of the Corona master has already started to move, otherwise it would be impossible for the Yode Chamber of Commerce to have not moved for so long.

In order for the United Chamber of Commerce to be implemented as soon as possible, at least it must have the strength to compete head-on with the Yode Chamber of Commerce.

As he spoke, the gray-eyed young man who was guarding outside pushed the door and walked in, his slightly frowning expression looking a little tense:

"Lord Loren, that Miss Ariel's... The housekeeper came and said he wanted to visit the vineyards and cellars of the Turin family with you. ”

Asrael... Did you find something so quickly?

The black-haired wizard didn't speak, his slightly flickering gaze falling into a pensive state.

"Well, you tell me it's over... By the way, inform the Count Charlotte Turin, this kind of thing deliberately avoided her, and the countess would definitely be displeased. ”

Sighing, Loren, who got up and was about to leave, looked at Cowell, who was still a little nervous:

"By the way, Lord Cowell, can I trouble you with something?"

"Uh... What do you want to know ......?"

"I need you to investigate what all the wizards in the Red Blood Castle have done in recent months. The black-haired wizard spoke calmly:

"Especially... Wizards who have visited the Doge's Palace!"
