Chapter 152: A Trip to the Council Hall
After coming out of the Great Temple, Violet returned to her residence by the lake and rested for a while. There was no one there.
The conversation with the teacher just now had a great impact on her. Until now, the girl's heart is still pounding in her chest, and it is difficult to calm down.
In fact, this mixture of surprise and overwhelm had been going on since yesterday, causing her to toss and turn all night and have trouble sleeping.
During the inheritance ceremony of the gods, the maiden saw the teacher's face, which was a face that belonged to a young man. In addition, Villelet also found a sense of familiarity in the other person: she felt that she did not know the other person, but she always felt that she had seen each other somewhere.
Maybe it's not your own delusion. It is not surprising that the teacher may have acted, observed, and even communicated with others as he was.
Of course, Willett's mind didn't linger long on the issue: the witch didn't think it mattered.
……
When she returned to the top floor, she happened to meet her friend on the side of the road: Scott Dimiller.
This is not a coincidence, as the two men are traveling to the same destination
Located in the center of the top floor, on the hollow side of the council hall. It is one of the oldest surviving structures in the Magic Tower, second only to the two ladders.
It is no easy task to preserve it from thousands of years ago to the present. Because every once in a while, the top floor of the magic tower will change dramatically:
Various landmarks have been erected due to the personal preferences of the leaders, and it is like a garden of plants and trees.
Whenever a new wizard leader ascends to the throne, it is a storm for the inhabitants of the tower, including a large number of personnel transfers and the destruction of the school...... In contrast, the appearance of the station changes dramatically according to the preferences of its owners, and it is nothing at all.
The newcomer Richard was among them, adding a wandering companion to the floating Black Tower.
For high wizards, it was easy to create magnificent buildings, but so was destruction.
For example, if a Steppenwolf member relies on killing or banishing a feuding former member, it is likely that the former will order the removal of any traces of the latter; Or simply for aesthetic reasons, if it doesn't look good, it may be dismantled when passing by.
This council hall was built by the original owner of the wizard tower, and with the birth of the magic tower at the beginning of its establishment, it is usually used on occasions that people do not care, so it can be left unlucky.
It is said that the original function of this place was to allow the residents of the tower to have a place to practice the democratic process of voting and election.
Now it seems like an old joke that is outdated. But perhaps that's why it's been preserved.
Today, the council hall is the decision-making body of the entire tower that is responsible for the day-to-day affairs.
In other words, this place was originally a place for the leaders, but they usually saw the dragon without seeing the end, and once in a while, they would meet next to the spark furnace.
That's why it's gradually becoming a gathering place for the top leaders of the Magic Tower, in addition to the leaders.
Before each hunting moment, the chief students of each school come and gather here.
They will be the leaders of the hunting party. After traveling to the wilderness, no higher-ranking wizards will participate. Everything can only be relied on by the young people themselves.
"Poetry!"
She greeted each other happily.
"Willy, you just came out of Lord Rasputin?"
The silver-haired girl stood still, turned her head, smiled softly, and greeted the witch.
“...... Yes. ”
Wellrit felt a little strange.
is known for her excellent sociability and politeness and patience with anyone, making her feel like a spring breeze. But she knew that when Shi Kodi saw her on weekdays, she was not like this. Now my friends are like wearing a mask.
"Did something happen?"
She couldn't help but ask.
"You don't seem to be in a good mood......"
The silver-haired girl was stunned for a moment, and then the mask-like disguise disintegrated slightly, revealing a subtle expression.
"I didn't expect this to be seen by you......"
She shook her head.
"It's nothing, it's just a bit of a stretch lately. You know, during this time, the tower is not peaceful, and the relationship between the various schools is like a powder keg, as long as the slightest contradiction is intensified, it may become a fuse. ”
"What's worse is that most of the young wizards like you and me are in a frenzy, and no one will exercise restraint in this situation, and there are more and more deliberate provocations and frictions with each other."
"What does Mr. Hall think?"
"Teacher, he's probably ...... Let's be happy to see it happen. ”
Poeti sighed.
"But he believes that now is not the best time to start a war, so he ordered me to find a way to control the contradictions to a certain extent, so that the situation is tense, but not yet within the scope of breaking out......"
"It's not an easy job."
Lord Sauron commented.
He cannot appear as an entity without the permission of the Covenant Keeper. So in normal times, they are all in stealth.
That's not bad at all. Violet couldn't help but look at her friend with a mixture of pity and worry.
"So, is this the only thing you can do?"
"Hmm...... It's okay, don't worry, Willy. ”
She smiled.
"I'm pretty good at that. ...... Are you still used to it? The life of the chief student. ”
"It's okay......"
Wellett thought about it, but still replied honestly.
"I feel very happy."
“...... That's good. ”
Once again, my friend smiled so gently that it seemed fake.
Villerite felt a little uncomfortable. Just when she was confused by her friend's strangeness, she suddenly moved in her heart and asked.
"Are you still working in Master Rasputin's school?"
"No, there isn't."
"Why not go on?"
"Isn't there already you? The job of the chief student can only be given to one person. ”
Indeed, because after Villerite became a member of the school, Poeti chose to withdraw voluntarily, so there was no dispute between the two.
Prior to this, there were indeed examples of conflicts between eliminated students and incumbents.
"But you can still ......"
"No, then it doesn't have to be."
The silver-haired girl shook her head.
"Although there is no order yet, when the 'Spring Hunt' is over, I will return to Mr. Hall."
"Now, let's go to the council hall, everyone is waiting for us."
With that, Sykodi turned away without any hesitation.
