Chapter 34: Persuasion?
In Viren's study, Viren still seems to be in the same loose appearance, but the title of the book in his hand has changed, "Love Burning Like a Candle".
A slight sobbing sounded, and the white paper that was stained and wet was thrown on the ground, which was sucked away by the alchemy machinery of the plate, but because there was too much paper, it blocked the suction of the little thing.
"It's so touching!"
It's hard to imagine a rough middle-aged man crying like a little girl.
"Knock knock. There was an untimely knock at the door.
"Who. ”
"It's me. ”
The tinkling sound disappeared.
"Come in. ”
Viren sat at his desk, like the most sleepless king, dealing with the piles of letters and official documents on the table.
"What's wrong, Sheena, what's the matter?"
"Father, I don't think I can be his attendant. ”
"We've already talked about that. ”
"Father, this Lance is not a good man. ”
"Is it because you're dueling with her?"
Shock flooded Sheena's cheeks, "How do you know?"
"Because I'm watching from the sidelines. ”
"From the time you left the castle, to the slave bazaar, to the underground auction, disguised as a commoner and duel with him, I saw it all clearly. ”
With Viren's strength, it would be easy not to be noticed by them.
"Then my father must have seen who this Lance is! If I were to be his attendant, I'd rather stay here for the rest of my life!"
Such resolute words can clearly show how terrible traces Lance left on the young heart of this princess, being used in turn, ridiculed, and teased, all of which she had never experienced.
It was enough to shock Viren, who knew the little girl's temper very well.
"Indeed, he should know your identity, which is also a violation of the treaty between us. ”
"According to the agreement, I should let you grow up with your mentor for a few more years. ”
As if noticing the increasingly dim look in Sheena's eyes, Viren's heart softened, it was not his style to suppress his own children like this.
A heavy tone turned.
"Ahem, but it was indeed my negligence to let a princess go down and serve as an attendant to a baron. ”
"The mentor has been too much for our family, and it's not good to continue to trouble him. ”
Sheena was visibly calmer.
"Well, our treaty continues, but I have changed, you are his apprentice, if you can learn half of his composure, I will allow you to live your life as an adventurer for a while, what do you think?"
The apprentice can choose not to attend the lesson, but the attendant cannot disobey orders.
"Why do you have to let me follow him?" Sheena really didn't understand what this Lance deserved so much attention from her father.
"Now that you've been in contact with him, what kind of person do you think he is?"
"Cunning, arrogant, out-and-out cold-blooded businessmen, and a big pervert. ”
The unmistakable assessment says exactly what Sheena saw Lance.
Viren shook his fingers, "No, no, no, what you see is only a part, and a subjective judgment mixed with your emotions. ”
"You don't see the intimacy between him and the kid, which shows that he is not a cold-blooded person. ”
"The reason why he teases you is because he knows who you are and wants you to retreat and not pester him. ”
"He is indeed a cunning person, and your little plan was easily dissolved by him, and even used it as a good time for him to promote his territory, but if you remove your subjective emotions, this can be called clever. ”
"As for arrogance, becoming a great swordsman in three months is difficult for even the most talented person in the empire to do. ”
"But he showed me a glimmer of possibility. ”
"What is possible?" asked Sheena.
There was a solemnity on Viren's face, something that even he was shocked.
"Have you ever seen a person who has just received a territory and can use the power of the territory so skillfully? ”
The previous scenes came to her mind, and she clearly remembered that Lance used the power of the territory to bind a thief of more than a hundred levels.
There is also this kind of picture, and there is also Viren, whose eyes gradually narrowed to show his inner thoughts.
"If a person wants to adapt to the power of the territory, it depends on his own bloodline and talent, and it takes three days to get an emperor bloodline and a legendary-level talent like me. ”
"If he can awaken his magic, I'd love to see what his starting level will be. ”
Looking at Sheena's curious gaze, his purpose was achieved.
"I trust my judgment, and I trust the judgment of your mentor grandfather. ”
"His qualities are exactly what you need, and you're peers, so there's no age barrier to learning from each other. ”
"So, this time let you give him an apprentice for a period of time, and then give you a free life, there is both a price and a reward. ”
"Now, what do you think?"
After Viren's words, to be specific, it was an inadvertent flicker.
Sheena's opinion of Lance seems to have changed slightly.
"What if he doesn't do it?"
"Don't worry, I have my own arrangements, he will definitely do it. ”
................................................
The relaxed gaze reflected the back of Sheena leaving, and gradually became deeper, and there were many reasons why he didn't tell her, what was contained in it, which was hated by people and called the imperial mind.
Help her win over Lance, spy on Lance by the way, and so on.
With Hina's current character, he can't say yet.
The other children have grown up and left him, and now only Hina is still here, she is the most gifted child and the child he values the most.
I hope you can grow up sooner.
The door was closed, and soon a faint sobbing sound sounded in the study.
......................................................
Night falls, but in this imperial capital, there is no night.
The huge magic ring formed by the connection of many magic towers lit up a magnificent light, especially the largest magic tower in Nosa, like the sun in the night sky, and the soft light sprinkled on every corner of the imperial capital.
Lance hasn't left yet, because today is one of the rarest days in the imperial capital, and it is called the glory of life.
