There is a gain and there is a loss, and what is gained needs to be sacrificed - this nonsense hides a well-known bullshit truth, that is, behind every successful person, there is one or several losers. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Or to put it another way, everyone's happiness is based on the pain of one or a few people, whenever we are elated, there will be more or less people who hug their heads and cry, and grab the ground with their heads...... Or furious.

His Excellency Verlo Bellini, the famous Wizard Tower of the Nine-Pointed Star at the moment, is now in a state of rage, and there are obvious signs of continuation.

At this moment, Verlot was in an exquisite private laboratory in the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower, chattering at a young wizard sitting at the laboratory table, and the noisy voice seemed as if the whole world had betrayed him:

"You don't see the faces of those guys, it's so arrogant! It's not the first time that Birdlaire has been this rude dog, I've put up with him for a long time, but I never thought he would dare to cheat me like this! And in front of nearly a hundred apprentices and wizards, I was embarrassed!

That's right, their purpose is to see my jokes! They already knew that the hillbilly named 'Ain Rand' was an apprentice of Master Freiswalker, and they deliberately staged such a play for me! Knowing that I am also a spellcaster, how could I not go to such a big occasion?!

I'm going to get revenge on them, I can't escape any of them, I'm going to have to clean them all up - especially that hillbilly wizard from Lothair, I'm going to kill him!"

"So, what can I do for you?"

The young wizard looked at Verlow helplessly. With dark brown curly hair, his delicate face looks very bookish, and his eyebrows are quite similar to Verlot, but his demeanor is completely different, and his pupils are a little anxious: "Whatever it is, as long as it doesn't interfere with my experiments." ”

"Oh, no, no, no...... You're thinking too much, I'm just a little irritable and can't help but complain. Verlot, who saw that the young wizard was a little impatient, immediately changed his face, and there was a faint flattering emotion in his smile: "Your research is the most important thing, Aalto." ”

"I hope you'll think the same the next time you walk into my lab, Mentor Verlow. The wizard named Aalto Bellini shook his head and returned to the test bench, "There is time for nagging, so you might as well consider continuing to advance in spells." ”

Although Aalto said it very vaguely, the corners of Verlow's mouth, who still felt the reprimand, twitched, and his heart was extremely unhappy, clenching his fists but never daring to show it.

Obviously, he is the mentor, and the other party is just his apprentice, but he has no qualifications to reprimand him, and even pretends not to understand after being sarcastic, and softly flatters.

But that's the cruel thing...... Aalto Bellini, a genius alchemist, was the foundation of his life in the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower, and it was thanks to him that he was able to earn a place here as a "spellcaster".

No matter how much that bastard looked down on him, he had to endure being on an equal footing with him, and even bowing himself on some occasions - the mentor and the apprentice prosper together, and both lost, this is the iron rule of the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower.

Not only that, but the research of his apprentice is also related to the interests of the Bellini family in the Nine-Pointed Star Wizarding Tower - the height of Alto Bellini's achievements will determine the status of the entire Bellini family in the wizarding world. No matter how arrogant Verlow is, he will never dare to interfere in this matter.

But this does not mean that Verlot will give up revenge, whenever he thinks of Birdlaire's sarcastic face, and the hillbilly from Lothair, the corners of his mouth twitch unnaturally, and recently there is a little more flesh pain.

In order to kill Ain Rand, he paid a lot of money to buy the fool named Van Sterno, and it turned out to be disappointing - it didn't matter if he was dead, but the hillbilly was alive and well!

He didn't care about the money, the Bellini family had it, but the ring that could use the 'Incarnation Charm' was a very rare treasure, even in the Bellini family, it was a collection of one of the few, and it must have been stolen by that hillbilly, right?

Ain Rand, he must die.

He gritted his teeth in his heart, but Verlow also noticed that Aalto was getting more and more impatient with himself - this was not a good sign, once he lost this precious apprentice, not only in the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower, but even in the family, no one would take him seriously anymore.

He had to figure out if there was anything that would interest him...... Verlot, who was desperately racking his brains, suddenly remembered a detail that he had always overlooked:

"I didn't tell you that this wizard named Ain Rand came from Lothair - just like the fellow named Isaac Grantham. ”

Aalto Bellini, who had always turned his back to him and pretended not to exist, suddenly stopped what he was doing and looked back slowly:

"What did you just say?"

Just as I thought, Verlow cheered in his heart, but his face was extremely serious: "I remember Bedlaire said that he was from that curtain Pyer......"

"Wimpal Academy?!"

"Yes, that's it!" Verlow hurriedly took it, "Both of them are from Lothair, both from that Wimpal Academy, and their mentor is the same person!"

"The same person?" Alto frowned, "But you just said that the mentor of this wizard named Ain Rand is Master Freiswalker." ”

"Uh...... That's not the point!" Verlot, who realized that he was too talkative, quickly remedied: "Do you know why he was able to get the recognition of the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower by virtue of his identity as a spellcaster?

"Aalto, this man is a threat to you - there can always be only one genius anywhere, and once you make this guy famous, your reputation will be severely damaged, and the number of people who will pay attention to you will be greatly reduced. This is not only for me, but also for you and our family, and we must not let him continue to run rampant!"

The young alchemist fell silent, and Verlow slowly showed a cruel smile, he knew his "apprentice" very well, as long as he did not directly refuse, it was equivalent to agreeing.

“...... I see, in short, I have to test and try to see if this Lord Ain Rand is exactly what you say. Alto nodded, muttering to himself with a gloomy face, "I'd also like to see how amazing a spellcaster can be appreciated by Master Freswalk." ”

"And then?" the excited Verlow asked relentlessly, "How are you going to kill him?!"

And then ...... I'll find a way to ease your relationship with him, and try to woo this gentleman if I can. Aalto blinked, "What do you think about inviting him to the Midsummer feast?"

Seeing that the apprentice was reacting like this, Verlow suddenly became anxious, let him reconcile with that hillbilly? This is absolutely not good, how can he bow his head to that kind of person and admit his mistakes, then it is better to kill himself altogether!

"What? No, no, no, you're mistaken, Aalto. You're absolutely mistaken, I ......."

"Stop messing around!"

Aalto Bellini suddenly stood up and looked directly at his "elder", who was even more ridiculous than the clown, and the mask of gentleness and humility fell off in an instant.

Verlot, who was still shouting just now, fell to the ground with his buttocks, and looked up at the "apprentice" in front of him tremblingly, his eyes showed fear for the first time, and he was lost like a leper dog.

"You don't seem to know how to remember, and I've warned you countless times not to continue messing around in the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower, it's dangerous here!" Alto Bellini's expression distorted slightly: "If you continue like this, continue to cause trouble for the family......

Then please forgive me for not being able to protect you any longer, Mentor Verlot!"
