"Hey, I said... Are you alright?"

After the middle-aged wizard who was so excited that he couldn't help himself left, Isaac Grantham, who returned to the room, was like a cat, curled up on the chair next to the window very "well-behaved", looking at the night scene of the imperial capital outside.

Belch... The word well-behaved is used on Isaac, which is originally a strange thing.

"Oh, I, how could I be okay? I'm fine, so good!" Isaac, with a confused face, turned around and snorted softly:

"After all, the 'genius' in the eyes of people is not me, and the people who are invited to visit and speak at the academy are not me, I am like a big leek falling on the side of the road to them...... With or without me, I'm all the same. ”

Looking at this lost Isaac, the stunned little wizard smiled little by little:

"You... Are you jealous of me?"

"I'm sorry to be jealous of you, but Ain are you mistaken?" Isaac, who raised his eyebrows, turned around and snorted disdainfully:

"Dare to ask what jealous of you? Is it going to see a bunch of potatoes with a smirk on their heads, or is it going to a third-rate wizard academy that can also treat alchemy as a treasure... With their level of intelligence, it's probably not easier for me to give a speech than it is to teach gorillas to speak human words!"

"That's it, it's just alchemy!" the joking Al shrugged his shoulders, his sapphire-like eyes full of smiles:

"It's not a big deal, it's all inconsequential things, so you won't be jealous because of these things!"

"That's right, think about what I have to be jealous of?" Isaac snorted coldly again:

"Invited by the Royal Wizarding Academy of Golovin?"

"Passionately pursued by a group of potatoes with their heads watered, and their words and deeds are extremely admired by them, as if they were offered to the gods?"

"A brand new laboratory, ample research conditions and an indifferent experimental assistant who is treated as a research subject?"

"Throw a few results and go down in history, or simply write a book and let the later potatoes study their own theories... Hmph!"

"......" The little wizard didn't speak, tilting his head to look at him.

"That's right, I'm jealous of you, so jealous that I'm almost dying!"

Saying this sentence in a huff, Isaac slumped in his chair half-dead and glanced at the little wizard unhappily: "Happy, aren't you? I know I'm embarrassed to look like this... It would be even more humiliating to be known to Mentor Dalton again!"

"And what if Mentor Dalton doesn't know?"

"What do you mean?"

Ain smiled slightly, "I mean, if you want, we can go and visit the Royal Wizarding Academy of Golovin together, as well as Loren and Lusen." ”

"Really?!" Isaac jerked his head out like a puppy.

"Of course it's true, we're friends. As he spoke, Al Yin stretched out his right index finger: "And... If you could promise me that I wouldn't be deliberately sarcastic or sarcastic about alchemy... I can give you the opportunity to speak. ”

"I promise, I promise, I can say whatever you tell me to say, as long as I can teach these gorillas to speak... I mean, teaching the truth to a group of people who mistakenly think they're wizards... I'll do whatever you ask me to do!"

Looking at Isaac's eyes lit up and impatient, the little wizard could only sigh tiredly, smile wryly and shake his head.

I hope the wizards of the imperial capital are good-tempered enough... Belch...... Probably, right?

...............................................................

"I didn't expect it to be... It's self-defeating. ”

At the other end of the room, Loren, who was also sitting by the window, laughed bitterly at himself, and his dark gaze never took his eyes off the window.

If it weren't for this Gray Sal wizard's reminder, the black-haired wizard would have forgotten that he deliberately used the name of a small wizard to disguise his identity at Ebolden.

The process is very complicated... To put it simply, because Corona and the Wizard Tower erased all traces of the name "Isaac Grantham" in order to cover up the truth about the Holy Blood Elixir, and the very few things he publicly published in the Wizard Tower were also pressed under the name "Ain Rand".

Later, in order to join the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower, the little wizard who came to Eberden and didn't know about it gave all of her research so far - especially about "Bright Silver", plus two alchemical potions that had been improved with the help of the Ancientwood Forest Elves.

Being recognized by the Wizard Tower can be said to be a rare honor to be recognized by the Empire...... But here's the problem.

Although there are now three names on the roster of the Wizard Tower, I don't know if Corona caused it unintentionally or intentionally, so that "Ain Rand" has all the research results of all three people under his name!

So it wasn't surprising that Mr. Gray Sal would be surprised to look like this......

There was a slight knock on the door behind him, and the black-haired wizard still sat by the window without looking back, staring intently out of the window.

After a moment, the gray-eyed boy with a solemn expression sat down in front of him and sighed.

"Did you find it?" asked Loren softly without looking back.

Lu Sien bowed slightly: "There are two outside the door, and they haven't left since we came in." ”

"And... I suspect the next room might have that too. ”

Not a possibility, but a certainty... The black-haired wizard raised an eyebrow, "admiring" the view from the window.

The guards standing guard outside the mansion were always subconsciously looking at the window of this guest room out of the corner of their eyes;

The maid in the garden, consciously or unconsciously, glanced behind her, and the paintbrush in her hand should not be copying the night scene;

Outside the walls of the courtyard, there were two faces that passed by in a hurry, and Loren had seen them at least three times, each time dressed differently;

There are also police posts in the corridors, and they have to talk to each other every time they change shifts, which should be more than just a sneaky chat......

From the inside to the outside, the entire summer twilight courtyard is almost covered with large and small eyeliner, paying attention to the every move of his group all the time, and the degree of vigilance is beyond imagination.

And there is also Edward, who left suddenly... It is likely that in a place where he did not notice, there were several night watchmen lurking and watching him.

Brandon, who returned to the imperial capital, did not stop outside, and went directly to the Heavenly Dome Palace;

Interesting... It's really interesting.

"The summer twilight courtyard was the residence of the royal family of de Salion for entertaining courtiers and outsiders, and almost all of them were the eyes of the princes and nobles, from the stewards to the lowest-ranking maids and guards. ”

The gray-eyed boy who sighed shook his head, and there was still some helplessness in his expression: "As long as we are still here, it is impossible to avoid these 'surveillance'. ”

"And... To be honest, I don't quite agree with Lord Ain Rand agreeing that the wizard would visit the Royal Academy. ”

"Why?"

"Although Lord Ain is nominally only your friend, it is not only for the princes and nobles - they will see everyone around His Highness Brandon as part of his power. ”

Lu Sien's expression was very serious: "The Royal Wizarding Academy of Golovin is also an extremely powerful force in the imperial capital... It may not be appropriate to say that, but we are telling those who are watching us that His Highness is courting the wizards. ”

"This may be a very dangerous sign!"

The black-haired wizard bowed slightly, agreeing, "That's right, and it's too coincidental. ”

"What a coincidence?" the gray-eyed boy didn't quite understand.

"Just as we arrived here, as soon as we entered the house, the moment I stood in front of the painting...... Did that Wizard Gray Sal really just happen to meet us?"

"No, he knew who we were from the beginning, and he knew exactly why we came from – he was there, and he was vaguely passing through us to make an invitation to Brandon de Salion. ”

Slightly hooked the corners of his mouth, Loren's expression was very playful:

"As it happens, that's exactly what we need. ”
