Chapter 68: The Witch and the Witch (II)
Even behind the scenes, there are still very few people who have the courage to evaluate wizarding leaders. The fear and awe of the legendary wizards has been ingrained in the bones of the inhabitants of the tower, but Viellett is one of the exceptions, she does have respect for the demonic skills and powerful mana of the wizard leaders, but she does not mean to blindly obey, nor does she think that there is some kind of innate superiority in the legendary wizards.
Villerite only regarded the leaders as preachers and teachers, shielded the wizards on the tower, and worthy of respect, instead of almost seeing the "legend" as an inviolable divine existence like ordinary wizards; Nor is she like a minority like Poetry: they know the greedy and indifferent side of several wizarding leaders, so they see the people they serve as invincible monsters out of fear and hatred.
Violet's current status was enough for her to faintly perceive some dark secret, which was the terrifying side of legendary wizards hidden under the prestige of virtue, but her attitude did not change because of this. This kind of character that does not know whether to say bold or straightforward makes Shi Kodi especially envious.
If only she could be as open and honest with others as she was...... And most importantly, face yourself, will things be different in the past?
……
After the two girls talked and laughed for a while, the conversation shifted from Sycody to Willett.
"Well, Lord Green still hasn't made the final choice?"
Among the five schools at the top of the Magic Tower, except for Lord Rasputin, who never accepts students, the only one who has not chosen the chief student of this generation is Marion Green.
In the hearts of the older generation of Steppenwolf residents, Mr. Green is the leader of Steppenwolf, in a sense, he can be said to be the uncrowned king of the Magic Tower; Coupled with the natural realm that can manipulate flames and thunder and release energy, it can be regarded as the image representative of the wizard group in the minds of the general public - under the influence of various reasons, the number of Grimm School is the largest on the magic tower, and it can be called the first university school; At the same time, Mr. Green himself has the largest number of students, but there is only one chief student of the wizarding leader in any era, all of which leads to extremely fierce competition within the Grimm School.
After going through the harsh trials, among the hundreds of talented young wizards who are qualified to join the top level, a total of ten will be selected as the chief student backup; And these ten people were continuously eliminated and supplemented in the next three years, and in the end, only two remained.
One was Willett Edward, and the other was ......
"The battle between me and Duncan Davy is about to get the first results. At the beginning of the next month, in a routine duel, the winner will take the position of the chief student. ”
The blonde girl replied softly.
"Oh, is it finally coming to an end?"
"yes. I've been completely tired of it lately. Violet made no secret of her dissatisfaction with the system set by the Supreme Council of Wizards, "The system of the school's chief students is too strict and bloated, it is just a pointless internal friction, and it only focuses more on intrigue and cliques than on encouraging people to really study magic in depth." ”
"Obviously qualified to come to the top are very talented people, but now they have to give up their natural talents and concentrate on these useless work, don't you think it's a waste? The Greens are the most typical of them, because according to tradition, the trials that Mr. Green's chief students have to go through are the most torturous......"
"Alright, that's all for now."
Sykodi sighed and raised her hand to stop her from continuing.
It's not because she doesn't agree with her friend's words; On the contrary, what the other side said could not be more correct, and it can even be said to be some kind of consensus that is popular among the middle and senior levels.
However, under normal circumstances, it is difficult to change the status quo caused by tradition in a short period of time, and the opportunity for change cannot be the so-called "people of insight", but only the real power. This is not something that a few young students can influence.
What's more, the object of Willett's "bad words" is still Marion Greene - although she is not yet an official student of the other party, she is still sheltered in the Greene School, and this kind of "guilty of the following" is taboo in the wizarding world that attaches great importance to the master-apprentice relationship.
"Still, you look pretty relaxed. Isn't it possible to beat Mr. David with confidence? ”
Viarit shook her head.
"Duncan is a formidable opponent and I certainly don't have any certainty of winning. But...... In addition to being an opponent, he is also my friend. I think that in the end, no matter which of us ends up to become the chief student, the rest of us will bless him from the bottom of my heart. ”
...... Are you sure?
The corners of Sycodi's mouth twitched unobtrusively.
If it was Villerett who lost, she believed that the other party would have behaved so calmly; But is there a second one like Willett on this tower?
To be honest, she wasn't convinced.
Poetry's knowledge of Duncan Davy is limited to paper, and she has no idea who he really is. However, since Villewlett trusts her friend, Silky will not go out of her way to be a bad person.
In any case, Sykodi would not applaud that guy. Of course, she has selfish intentions, hoping that her friend will become the chief student like herself.
"Willy, you shouldn't show mercy, right?"
The blonde girl tilted her head in confusion.
"Why do you ask?"
"Because ......"
The witch's face was smiling. Yes, this is a counterattack to the ridiculous topic that my friend brought up earlier.
"That's a rare friend of the opposite sex of yours, isn't there ...... between you?"
"It's not."
"That's a shame. I always thought you two were done. ”
But Violet calmly replied, "We're just friends." And even if it's really a lover, I'll beat him with dignity and never let him go. ”
"That's really what you do."
Although Shi Kodi said so, her true thoughts in her heart felt that if the other party really found someone she liked, she might not really do it. Principles are often emotionally fragile, especially for people like Willett.
......
The night was deep, the stars were falling, the cold moon was shining on the earth, and the silence outside the window was so quiet that not even the chirping of insects could be heard, only the sound of the wind blowing through the lake and the forest. The witches—or the maidens' night talk—is still in full swing, and it seems that it will be some time before it ends.
