PS: Yesterday the third chapter, I obviously saw it released, but when I looked at it today, I didn't sweat to death, maybe I read it wrong. Here, I apologize to all of you, the third chapter has been issued, and I am very sorry.

In the next five days, in addition to accompanying Toria, Sun Ran spent most of the rest of his time either holding a magic book to study, or staying in the alchemy room to study various potions.

On the surface, his life was very fulfilling, and all the gods who observed him unanimously agreed: 'Talent is the key to this Russell's achievement at such an age, but what is more important is that he has put in more sweat than others!' He deserves such an achievement! ’

Alchemy Room.

"Lord Russell, why is there such a huge difference between the mixing of autumn grass and lantern grass roots, heated by different temperatures and different oscillation methods?"

The person who asked was a little girl, named Judy, seventeen or eighteen years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and a face full of innocence.

Sun Ran smiled and patiently explained, "This is the vortex effect of the flow of magic power. This effect negates out a certain magic in the material. Temperature and oscillation are to control the generation of this vortex effect, cancel out the magic we don't need, and enhance the magic we need, so the same material, under different conditions, produces different effects. ”

"Oh, Lord Xie Lu." The girl bowed, then jumped away.

Sun Ran smiled, didn't care, and continued to bury his head in the sea of magic, and I don't know how long it took, an attendant interrupted his train of thought: "Your Highness, the banquet has arrived." ”

Sun Ran and the queen are married, then Sun Ran will definitely get the title of prince. This attendant is clever and has been changed to His Royal Highness early.

And today is the day of the state banquet, and Sun Ran has lived it as an ordinary day.

"Oh, good." Sun Ran sorted out the magic book and followed the attendants to remove the alchemy room.

In the hallway, the attendant reminded, "Your Highness. Today's state banquet, the great lords of the various fiefdoms of the kingdom have arrived. Your Majesty would like you to change into your dress before attending. His Majesty said that it was the one he said he would be good when he tried it on last night. ”

Sun Ran nodded: "It's good." ”

"Please come with me."

The attendant took Sun Ran into the dressing room, changed into a delicate dress for him, and then walked towards the banquet hall of the castle with Sun Ran.

"Your Highness, there are three main guests today, and they are ......"

Before he finished speaking, Sun Ran raised his hand to stop: "Needless to say." I don't want to know these people. I'm just a magician. Your Majesty will handle these mundane matters for me. ”

“…… Yes, Your Highness. ”

The attendant stopped talking, and walked forward with Sun Ran in silence.

Banquet Hall.

Dressed in a fiery red dress and a festive ruby crown, Toria sat at the main table to entertain lords from the kingdom's fiefdoms.

Everyone is noble and very particular about etiquette, except for the gentle sound of knives and forks during the banquet. All that's left is the melodious sound of the organ.

When the wine was half-drunk, the Duke of Ross, who sat at the top of the left side, and several marquis looked at each other. Suddenly, he said, "Your Majesty, with all due respect, are you planning to marry Your Excellency the Great Magician today?" ”

"yes, is there a problem?" Toria asked.

"With all due respect, you're being reckless in doing so." Duke Ross looked dissatisfied.

"yes, yes." The Marquis of Orlant under the seat chimed in: "Although Sir Russell is a great magician, he is from a commoner. You can give him treasures and noble titles, but marrying him is really detrimental to the glory of the Lucio family! ”

The noble word of the nobility. The most important bloodline, even if he is a rice bucket with no ability, as long as he is stained with a noble surname, others will look up to him. In order to maintain the nobility of the bloodline, the nobility was never allowed to intermarry with the commoners, and even the glory of the great magician was difficult to break this deep-rooted class barrier.

This is the universal value of the mage world, and the common people have been indoctrinated with this idea for thousands of years, and they all take it for granted.

Toria listened quietly, with a faint smile on her face, and asked, "Is there anyone else who has any objections?" ”

"I have." Speaking out was the Marquis of Delok in the Southern Des Province, he, the Duke of Ross, and the Marquis of Orlante were the three nobles of the Holy Helmet Kingdom, and the family fiefs of the three together accounted for almost 60% of the kingdom's land.

He wiped his mouth with a napkin and said reservedly: "Your Majesty, I cannot tolerate a lowly commoner to become the object of my allegiance. If you insist on doing so, we in the province of Dess will announce our joining the Kingdom of Cidis. ”

"Me too." Duke Ross threw the silver fork on the table, and with a crisp sound, the fork bounced off the table and fell to the ground, but no one dared to pick it up.

The small banquet hall was silent, and the pins could be heard.

"Seconded!" The Marquis of Orlante said, and with that, he put a piece of pigeon meat in his mouth and chewed it gently.

The atmosphere of the banquet became colder and colder, and even the buzzing voices coming from the outer hall of the banquet could not hide the oppressive atmosphere here.

There were five other lords at the table, and when they saw that the three lords had formed an alliance, they knew that there must be a deep inside story about today's affairs, so they didn't say anything, and only buried their heads in eating and drinking.

Toria knew what was going on, it must have been the work of the Kingdom of Cidis.

Citis didn't want to see the Holy Helmet royal family get strong reinforcements and grow stronger, so he promised the three lords great benefits. The three lords themselves didn't want the royal family to become strong, and the two sides hit it off, so it evolved into the current situation of joining forces to force the palace.

"And what do you suggest?" Toria asked, taking a sip of her wine.

"Russell returns to the Sky City and becomes the guardian of the Sky City. Your Majesty, you will choose a noble noble son as your husband as soon as possible to continue the royal bloodline. Duke Ross said.

Sky City and the Holy Helmet Kingdom have a covenant to protect the Holy Helmet Kingdom forever, and now that Russell is back, then the entire Holy Helmet Kingdom will be protected by the Sky City, not just the Lucio royal family enjoying the protection of the Great Magician.

The relationship between the interests of this is very delicate, involving many contracts made by the major nobles when the Holy Helmet Kingdom was founded.

In short, the kingdom has produced a great magician, and the major lords of the kingdom are equally happy, but they are not happy that this great magician has become a member of the royal family, and the matter is as simple as that.

This is exactly what Caxis is taking advantage of.

Toria took a small sip of her drink and was silent.

The three major lords did not rush and waited patiently for her to make a decision.

In the silence, an attendant's voice sounded: "The Great Magician Russell has arrived." ”

Everyone at the banquet turned their heads to look over, and saw a young man in a gold-rimmed red robe walking in, this young man was handsome, had a clear temperament, a gentle demeanor, and even a hint of childishness. At first glance, this is an ordinary scholar-type magician.

It was hard to imagine that such a gentle young man would have become a nightmare for the Dark Legion six years ago, and he would have wiped out more than a dozen high-level abyssal war demons in the trade zone a few days ago, and his appearance did not look like he had such a powerful force.

"So this is Russell, who looks like an ordinary person." All the lords had the same thought in their hearts.

Sun Ran stepped forward and saw that there was an empty seat next to Toria, so he knew that the road was reserved for him, so he walked up and prepared to sit down.

"Wait!" Duke Ross blocked.

"Is there something wrong?" Sun Ran asked.

"That seat is where His Majesty's husband sits. Lord Russell, the guest seated at this long table, has noble blood in his body. You're a great mage, but you're still born a commoner, so your place is there. ”

Duke Ross pointed to the last seat of the long table.

Sun Ran was a little strange, this obviously had a difficult taste, this shouldn't be, he was a great magician, how could this person dare to be so rude to him? Isn't this the world where the mage is respected?

It was no wonder that he had such doubts, it was because he did not have a thorough understanding of the aristocratic system of the mage world.

Seeing Sun Ran being humiliated, Toria felt very uncomfortable in her heart, patted the seat next to her heavily, and said, "My kingdom, I am in charge!" Russell, come here, sit next to me. ”

"Your Majesty, think twice!" Duke Ross squinted his eyes, with a thick threat in his eyes, this Russell sat down today, then they returned to the territory and immediately surrendered to Citus.

If the three major lords rebelled, the Holy Helmet Kingdom would almost fall apart.

"Russell, sit down." Toria insisted on this, if it was the previous Toria, she would definitely give in this time, but unfortunately the lords were facing the goddess of Asaph, Friga.

"Oh, good." Sun Ran answered, turned around and sat down, and then asked, "Liya, what happened?" ”

"It's nothing, you don't have to worry." Toria comforted.

"I don't like politics, but I'm not stupid." Sun Ran looked unhappy, this situation, at a glance, he knew that there was something wrong.

Seeing that Queen Toria did not speak, Count Orlante spoke: "We all feel that His Excellency the Great Magician, who was born as a commoner, is not suitable to be the husband of His Majesty. ”

"Oh." Sun Ran understood it at a glance, immediately understood, and asked, "But I'm already sitting in this position, what will happen?" ”

This meant that Her Majesty had ignored the ideas of her people and acted arbitrarily, and that she had tarnished the glory of the Lucio family. We will no longer be loyal to such a king! The Marquis of Droplock opened his mouth to explain the consequences.

"It's strange to me, you said now that you want to rebel, aren't you afraid that Your Majesty will imprison you?" Sun Ran asked.

"Of course, Your Majesty can imprison us, and if she wants to lose the support of all the lords, she can even kill us." Duke Ross sneered.

"Oh, I see, you're working together to force Leah to change her decision, right?" Sun Ran asked.

"Your Excellency, Great Magician, be careful of what you say. You should call the lady next to you Your Majesty! Duke Ross corrected.

Sun Ran looked at Toria and said, "Liya, I'm very unhappy now. ”

"Don't be impulsive, leave everything to me, and I'll take care of it." Toria comforted, grabbed Sun Ran's hand and patted it gently.

Sun Ran shook his head: "No, it's my business!" (To be continued......)
