39. Temptation and questioning

Merlin avoided the old headmaster's salute, he didn't dare to accept the old headmaster's salute, especially since this salute was not so pleasant.

The court etiquette class of the predecessor was not in vain, and the old principal's bending ceremony just now was a 90-degree bend, and at the same time his left hand was clenched into a fist, against the heart, such etiquette was a great gift that the ministers would only exercise to the emperor in the past, showing their loyalty to the emperor, and when saluting, the old principal also deliberately pointed out that he was a former imperial court adviser to salute, so the meaning he wanted to express was obvious.

Now that the empire is cold, how can Merlin, a dead prince, be qualified to bear the gift of the old principal, the old principal is implicitly expressing his support for his status as a prince of the orthodox empire, and at the same time asking if he still has the heart to restore the country.

If Merlin accepted that salute calmly, it would mean that he still regarded himself as an imperial prince, and he had the heart to restore the country, and he was willing to accept the old headmaster's support for him.

However, Merlin's soul under this layer of skin has been replaced by a dead house, and it is very troublesome to restore the country or something, how could he do it, in fact, if it weren't for the little girl, he would have to get stronger as soon as possible before the little girl became an adult, and he was still hiding in the castle Happy fat house.

"Headmaster, you can just call me Merlin, the prince or something is in the past."

After dodging, Merlin spoke to the old headmaster.

He completely cut off the old principal's thoughts about him coming forward to restore the country.

On the other side, Albert obviously heard Merlin's meaning, and a trace of disappointment flashed in the old man's eyes, and he sighed slightly, but he didn't say anything.

Although he is more or less unwilling to let that great empire end like this, he has some expectations for this sudden prince, hoping that one day he can reunite the empire.

However, Albert also knows that everyone has their own aspirations, as an educator he is still very open-minded, since His Royal Highness the Prince has no intention of returning to the country, then he will not impose his own wishes on him, in his opinion, every child has the right to freely choose his own life, no matter what choice His Royal Highness makes, he will respect.

"It's my strength, Your Highness Merlin."

He apologized, and returned to his seat.

And Merlin was relieved to see that the old man was not angry, but very open-mindedly accepted his choice, which was already "unfilial" in the eyes of traditional people.

Before coming today, he had already learned the identity of the old townsman from the chief maid, this is a figure who has always been close to the royal family, he is a close friend of the old king when he was a student, and he was also Merlin's mother, the court teacher of Her Royal Highness the princess, after Merlin's father succeeded to the throne, he has also been serving as a court advisor and minister of education, and the old headmaster can be regarded as Merlin's elder in terms of relationship.

He was just afraid that the old headmaster, who had a close relationship with the royal family, would point at his nose and scold him angrily, "Nothing is promising, the ancestral foundation doesn't want to be restored, you unfilial bastard or something." ”

Fortunately, such an unpleasant development did not happen, and Merlin took out the invitation letter that his sister had given him from his pocket and handed it to the old headmaster.

"Your Excellency, I'm just here to report today, and I'll ask you to take care of me in the future."

He made it clear what he wanted to do today.

Albert glanced at the invitation, and then was slightly stunned.

He did give Cynthia a blank invitation letter before, which was one of the conditions that Cynthia put forward when she agreed to take on the position of branch dean, and at that time Albert just thought that this witch had someone he wanted to promote, so he agreed, and gave this invitation letter happily.

After all, in his opinion, the person personally recommended by a dignified sage would not be too bad, so it was impossible for a character who couldn't be helped to get into the eyes of this arrogant witch, so what else did he have to worry about.

But now look at Merlin who is filled in with the name in the invitation letter. Cornwallis. With Hayward's words, the old headmaster raised his head and looked at Cynthia opposite, a little speechless.

"Sage-sage, are you serious? Are you sure you don't want to give Your Highness an admission letter? ”

He originally thought that Merlin was here to go through the admission procedures today, although he knew Merlin's real age, he felt that it was a bit late to enter school at the age of 16, but the royal family members have always had their own educational methods, and directly arranging Prince Merlin to transfer to the sixth grade will not have things like failing to keep up with his grades.

And he also thought that the person invited by Cynthia was at worst an official member of the Wizarding Association or the Witch's House, but he never expected that this witch would give this invitation to Merlin, but His Royal Highness the Prince himself is still a child, let a child become a professor in the academy, then the face of the school is still good, this will damage the reputation of the school after it spreads.

Although Albert also respected Merlin, the prince of the empire, and he also hoped that Cynthia, a sage, would join the academy as the new branch head, Aldrich House was a place he had spent his life protecting, and he would not allow anything to tarnish the school's reputation.

At this time, he really hoped that Cynthia, a witch who was notoriously wicked, was just joking with him.

"No, I'm serious, I think my brother is capable enough to take on the position of professor of occultism."

However, in the face of the old principal's questioning, Cynthia nodded, with a look of pride that "my brother is super powerful".

Albert: "......."

He took off his glasses a little speechlessly and pinched the bridge of his nose with a headache.

I haven't heard that Cynthia is still a brother-in-law demon, if you really care so much about His Highness Merlin, you shouldn't have cursed His Highness back then.

Fortunately, Merlin saw the principal's hesitation, and he took the initiative to speak, alleviating the somewhat awkward atmosphere.

"Your Excellency, I also think I am capable of taking on this position, of course, there is no evidence, you can conduct an interview with me now."

He said quite confidently.

He quite understands the old principal's embarrassment, after all, if he had seen Qingbei University suddenly announce that it had recruited a sixteen-year-old high school student as a professor in his previous life, he would have copied the keyboard and sprayed it first, and then said, the sixteen-year-old professor, if there was no greasy in it, he could eat the keyboard on the spot.

But that was before.,Since the time crossing,Inherited the memory of the original owner.,He now knows what it means that high school students are monsters.。

can be judged by his golden finger running group system as high as 90 occult science, this is the level of truly entering the master realm, let alone being a professor in the academy, even if he is allowed to teach professors, it is completely qualified.

"Okay, if Your Highness insists."

The old headmaster hesitated, but he finally decided to give Merlin a chance, and he stood up and took out a book from the bookshelf next to him........
