The aftermath of the old school building did not expand within the college, and the old school building was turned into a no-go zone by order of the head of the Van Dyck house. The students of Class VIII. and the other two students involved in it were also silent about it, and only the information that circulated among acquaintances was indeed a rather inconspicuous thing in this academy where there was something new every day.

A week after the incident, the VIII. students were once again divided into two groups and headed for the imperial capital of Heimdall. As an entourage, Ike was sitting on the sofa of a private house at this time, facing the girl who was enthusiastically introducing his new afternoon tea series of meals, and looked at the burly man beside him puzzled, "Our business also covers the catering industry?" ”

"No, it's just her interest, and she has opened a small shop for this, but according to the feedback from the guests, the reviews are quite good for both nobles and commoners." Joseph replied.

"Is a business strongman still a baking expert?" Ike rubbed the bridge of his nose, "Well, I'm not surprised, after all, it's a little new star." ”

"Call me that nickname again, be careful that I remove your place, Ike." Afina threatened.

"Okay, count me wrong. But you should also give up, after fighting for so long, this title is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Don't you feel like you're shooting yourself in the foot? Ike spread his hands.

"Hey, you old people are going to bully newcomers." Efina muttered unhappily.

"Having said that, is there anything going on in the imperial capital this time?" Joseph put down the teacup in his hand, "I recently heard that you are an instructor at the Military Academy, do you want to leave some influence over there?" ”

"That's what I was going to do in the first place." Ike scratched his head, "After all, most of those students may be from the imperial military world in the future, and as an instructor, it will be much easier to carry out activities in the future." ”

"So now you have something else to do?" Alfina replied sharply.

"I can't say anything else, but I've been doing it all the time. But there seem to be a lot of interesting guys in my class. A strange glint twinkled in Ike's eyes.

"Also, the Princesses of Elbarian, the sons of Chief Regnitz, the Swordsmith of Light, and Ryan Fort... It seems that they are all quite large backgrounds, so the prince probably intends to let these backgrounds have the intention of communicating and merging, right? Joseph asked.

"There's a purpose, for sure, but the integration should be forgotten." Ike shook his head, "It's good that they don't fight each other, at best it's just an exchange between students." But as long as there is communication, there will be a change. Especially now at an age when we are not yet fully exposed to the world. I'm afraid that's the idea that the prince played. ”

"I know, I know, Ike." Efina, who was originally silent, suddenly walked up to Ike's side, poked Ike in the waist with her elbow, and teased, "That Ryan Fort's daughter seems to be your fiancée, right?" There's a hand, Ike. ”

"Your character is simply a forty-year-old market aunt." Ike was helpless: "Anyway, you are also a guy who is known as a rising star in the business world, and you have a little style, okay?" ”

"Effina don't make a fuss." Joseph interjected, looking at Ike with a sharp look in his eyes, "So you're only here to say hello to us and to supervise the students?" ”

"Actually, that Olivet guy sent me an invitation." Ike pulled out an invitation from his bosom: "Ready to go to the banquet at five o'clock in the afternoon." And I just want to ask you about the information I asked you to check. ”

"It's already hard to inquire about the snake's information, and now I need to dedicate one person. But fortunately, this time the apostle was quite high-profile, even in the imperial capital, there were many witnesses. It's just that no one seems to know it. Joseph replied. And then there's the great power you mentioned, a mysterious power that seems to have been in the legends of the Empire for a long time. The most credible is undoubtedly the war 250 years ago. ”

"The Lionheart Emperor...

"That's right, commanding the huge knight and your lord to end the civil war in the Empire, judging from the legendary texts, it does look like a puppet of the Dark Ages. However, since they can be known as knights and trump cards, they must be more powerful than those miscellaneous soldiers. ”

"It's really ironic, the self-proclaimed innovation of the Thirteenth Workshop, but it turns out to be just picking up people's teeth." Ike rolled his eyes, "But that power is really different from the existing guiding force. ”

"Of course, the popularization of guiding force has only begun in modern times, and the science of the Dark Ages is not comparable to such simple guiding technology." Afina took out a document from the bookshelf and handed it to Ike, "Most of the cashable commercial activities of the Empire and Crossbell have been cashed in, and the commercial activities have been reduced to a considerable size, except for the necessary commercial activities and physical stores. Investments in the aristocracy have also begun to tilt. Next, just seize the opportunity and change the investment target when the aristocracy is ready to fall. ”

"It's up to you, Efina." Ike held out his thumbs up.

"Of course, professional things will be done professionally." Effina replied triumphantly.

"Speaking of which, Joseph, you don't think that high-profile apostle should be that nasty fellow?" Ike suddenly remembered something, and asked with an ugly face.

"No one but her would do that, Second Apostle Abyss."

"Is that troublesome guy here too?" Ike raised his forehead: "Now there are three known apostles that have appeared, and if the white face is hung up, this time half of the apostles will be dispatched for this plan, it is really courageous." ”

"Tick Bell Tick Bell Bell—"

"Hello, this is Ike."

The sound of the guide communication interrupted the discussion between the three of them, and Ike, who skillfully picked up the guide device, spoke.

"It's me." In the force guide, a cold young man's voice came.

“。。。 Can you still find him? When he heard the voice, Joseph replied with some surprise.

"Oh—you've finally got back." Ike replied with some please, "You won't be going to some remote corner of the country to live in seclusion recently." ”

"You don't need to worry about this, let's talk about something." The youth replied.

"Well, I need you to help me with two things, one is to find Sword Immortal Yun Kafayi, and it's really interesting to tell him about his apprentice for me, there is such a hole card hidden."

"Oh? The person who can surprise you is also accepted as an apprentice by the old man... It's the closed disciple named Lane, right? ”

"The level of swordsmanship and analytical skills are okay, but the actual combat is quite bad. But that's not the point, I said, the ability to rob the flame, do you remember? ”

"Is that a saboteur... What's wrong? On the phone, the young man was silent for a moment and then asked.

"He's also the same as Zheng Yan, 'mixing' the power of the bloodline." Ike replied.

“！！！。。。 Hehe, what's my business. ”

"I just wanted you to bring a word and tell you by the way. After all, you're rivals. Ike replied.

"Do you too." There seemed to be some impatience in the young man's tone, "The second. ”

"Please go to Crossbell, even if you can't come, try to be nearby, at present, there are three apostles, the number of executors is unknown, I need your strength."

"It's surprising, don't you have quite a lot of companions? Wouldn't those companions be more reliable if they were to find me. ”

"Don't look at us like this, in fact, we are quite short of manpower." Ike complained "how's it going, how about thinking about joining us?" ”

"No kidding, why am I joining." The youth sneered.

"That one appeared." Ike replied suddenly.

“！！！”

The young man's voice stopped abruptly, and after the sound of heavy breathing, the young man's cold voice came again, "Are you so sure that the item must be placed in Crossbell?" ”

"At first, I just thought that both the Empire and Crossbell were possible, but now things are going on for a new purpose." Ike took a deep breath, "I'm in Crossbell, and I've seen the 'entity'. ”

“！！！”

“。。。 Are you saying it's an 'entity' rather than a 'physical object'? ”

"That's one of the keys to the hard work."

“。。。 I understand, after finding the old man, I will go to Crossbell. ”

"Then I'll leave it to you."

"Levy."
