The overtures of a high-ranking and powerful person cannot but make people panic.

What's more, he had witnessed the brothers killing each other, and deeply understood the primitiveness and cruelty under the court.

Suddenly, in Mo Shi's mind, a reef broke through the waves and took shape:

By the way, didn't he save the life of His Majesty Manka Golden Lion before?—— and forcefully separated the sword wielding in the enhanced magic effect so that Manka avoided casualties.

It stands to reason that this is a great favor. Even the king should be moved and reciprocated.

Mo Shi was shocked that he had not thought of the meaning of this incident at all.

Since the end of the coup d'état, he has been immersed in the peaceful pleasure of being reunited with the fire sparrow and the well-being of his friends. He didn't think much about it. If you change to a person with a more sense of officialdom, you will not forget to seize this opportunity. But despite what Mo Shi has experienced, he is still immersed in the innocence of the "Youth Academy".

And Manka Golden Lion.

Apparently an old fox (rude, Your Majesty).

He probably saw the "rough perception" of the young mage in front of him in the struggle for power, so he deliberately did not mention half a word of gratitude, and enjoyed it.

Seeing the complex changes in Mo Shi's expression, the smile on Manka Golden Lion's face did not move at all.

"In that case, the matter is settled. He waved his hand in an elegant manner, jokingly, "But I won't pay for Mr. Dino's tuition." ”

Mo Shi was a little surprised: "Dino has already told you that he expects to stay in the center?"

"Oh, he doesn't have to tell me if he wants to stay here, just consult with his father, the Duke. Manka laughed and said, "It was Jelota who told me." She was glad that Dino had chosen to stay in the center for a little longer. ”

"They have a very good relationship. ”

"I wish Gelotta happiness. "Maybe you think I'm a cold-blooded person who cares nothing about my loved ones—"

In order to form an alliance, he did not hesitate to offer the marriage contract of his two younger sisters.

The death of his father was concealed for a month, and during that time everything was arranged for the army of his cronies to go to the royal city.

Defeated his brother with his own hands. However, at least he was spared.

"Of course, I have many things to confess to God. But there were many times when I thought that everything I was doing was God's will, so I didn't regret it. ”

Before the official arrival of winter, the leaders of various places returned to their fiefdoms, while Dia Firefinch, Dino Firesparrow and Moshi remained.

Sheka Hawthorn has his own responsibilities, and he is not an idler like Mo Shi who has a vacant position, and he can't stay if he wants to. What's more, there is also his wife in the red sand castle waiting for him to come home. He said that he would consult with the Duke of Firebird about his future appointment.

Dino was reluctant to leave Shekha and Diffonor. Come to think of it, it is true that this boy has not been separated from his loved ones for so long before. The closest thing he ever did to an adult job was a brief trip to check the tax situation.

But to put it another way, the same is true of Moshi.

According to the vague memories in his mind, he was just a young student at a university with a small amount of experience. He suddenly came to this continent, and so far he has only done things such as finding the murderer and assisting Dino to escape from the castle, and he is also a naïve young man.

Heavy snow began to fall, enveloping the gray-brown city.

Mo Shi already had a hunch.

You will be trapped here for a long time, perhaps until a natural disaster obliterates the city.

In the spring of the following year, they were officially accepted by the Spinel Academy.

Before they officially left the palace, they went to bid farewell to the king.

The new king is young and energetic, the number of Black Dog Knights is decreasing, and the number of White Knights heading to the north is increasing, and the king seems determined to settle the unrest in the north before the arrival of this summer. He was surrounded by a group of ministers and clerks, and when he saw Dino and Moshi, it was as if he had found an opportunity to relax from his heavy work.

Mo Shi knew the way the king spoke, and he was sure to be having some fun with them again.

"It's great to see both of them still in good spirits after a cold winter. Are the two gentlemen about to embark on a long journey of study?" said the king, smiling.

"Thank you for letting us live in your castle and escape the cold," Dino was nervous when he faced the king, but not when he faced the prince before, he was a rigid old knight who followed the rules at heart, "Thank you for taking the time to write a letter of recommendation for us." Your letter of recommendation has earned us recognition from the Spinel Academy, and we will be on our way to the Academy tomorrow. ”

"I studied there, you know?" Manka said cheerfully, "and I was a funny young man before I was married. Sure, I learned a lot there, but honestly, I think I learned more about relationships there. ”

"Relationships?" Dino innocently opened his big eyes.

Mo Shi guessed that a child like him, who had been at the top of the pyramid since birth and grew up in the family castle, probably only knew the meaning of the phrase "interpersonal relationship" and never consciously applied it to life.

"Oh, you don't have to worry, young man. You are the son of the Duke of Firesparrow, and you are so determined and brave, who would dare to bully you? You are no younger than I was then, and the teachers will not favor you less than mine. You know, people like you who have a noble surname never have to worry about some ...... Some people are worried about things that happen from time to time. ”

Dino didn't seem to understand at all.

But Mo Shi quickly understood what the king meant.

- A school full of aristocratic young people must be full of complex social networks, and it will not be as pure and calm as an ideological campus.

Mo Shi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He still remembered the unhappiness he had experienced at school, and the mental distress and character defects they had caused him.

But he also knows how to protect himself. Coupled with letters of recommendation from the king and the holy priests, and the favor of the fire sparrow, Mo Shi thought that their trip to the academy would not be a smooth one.

Spinel Academy.

As far as Mo Shi knew, it was the most revered school in the royal city, funded by the royal family and several nobles – not including the firesparrow, which is said to have been too far away from the royal city in the early days, but recently the duke has also donated it.

It was a "general university", known in this era as the "General School", and according to Mosher, it could be compared to the University of Paris, founded in the ninth century, or the University of Bologna in Italy, or later more famous in England, Oxford and Cambridge (both founded in the 12th century, both of which have a long history).

Now Moshi and Dino stood in the spinel academy, looking at the crimson columns, tall and beautiful, without excessive carved ornamentation, smooth cylindrical shapes. In the bright sun, they may emit the phosphorescent glow of gemstones, but unfortunately there is still light snow this season.

They were greeted by a middle-aged Heyar man, not tall, but his serious face and body standing upright in a black robe made him look solemn and tall.

"Welcome to both gentlemen, and on behalf of the Spinel Academy, I hereby extend my greetings and blessings to both of them, and may God lend wisdom to mortal mortals. ”

His pronunciation and intonation are neat, as if the conversation had been repeated thousands of times, and he tacitly acknowledged that all listeners were equal.

"My name is Mar Amethyst, and I'm the head of the White House. "Whatever your future studies are, I'll be your mentor—I'll be in charge of managing the students, reviewing your year-end learning, and managing the philosophy curriculum and books." ”
