270 The Prince of Wales His Majesty
Wales smiled narrowly and said, "You seem to have a disdain for court mages, isn't your teacher, Lord Randolph, a court mage?"
Charlie hurriedly waved his hand and said, "There is absolutely no contempt, it's just that everyone focuses in different directions, the tradition of the Arcane Ring is to aim at actual combat, and I don't like to study questions like the following: How many ways to cast spells? How can spells and gestures be combined to make the whole spell more beautiful? Under what circumstances can the power of spells be maximized?"
Wales laughed and said, "Okay, you don't have to explain, I understand your subtext, that's what you mean!"
Charlie smirked.
"Sometimes, no matter what power you have, you can never protect a person like an all-powerful god. Wales suddenly let out a sigh of emotion, restrained his smile, and said, "Speaking of which, I also want to thank you for taking care of Qianxue on the ship and in Twilight, before this, I didn't resist her request, and I didn't carefully investigate the mechanics of the Arcane Ring, and allowed her to study there, which was a very serious mistake I made, and I almost killed her!"
Luckily, the goddess of fate favored my daughter and allowed her to avoid some difficulties.
It was only after hearing about the events in Twilight Town that I really paid attention and learned what a sinister place the Arcane Ring was, so, starting next semester, I would ask her to transfer to Raphael Academy. ”
Charlie was a little disappointed to hear the news, but he could understand a father's feelings.
Charlie said: "She really doesn't fit into that competitive environment, even if she wants to exercise her personal abilities, she needs to put the right amount of pressure, step by step, like the arcane ring, directly exposed to the law of the jungle, and compete with a group of talented and very active geniuses, it is too simple and crude, and it is easy to have accidents."
Of course, if you can come out of this environment with your personal ability, like a thousand people, then the training of people is very large, and you can basically take charge of yourself. ”
"You're right, I agree. However, she has grown up and does not listen to me much now, you are her good friend, and you have the opportunity to help me persuade her. ”
"Okay, I'll do my best. Charlie nodded.
Wales muttered: "The last monarch, the Dragon-Blood Emperor, was a great man and made great efforts to lay a huge territory for the thousand-year-old empire and build the foundation of a great empire, and now His Majesty has inherited the bloodline of the previous king, so that the entire empire can stand firmly at the peak of secular power in the Wagrand continent."
It can be said that in this era, it is not too much to describe the thousand-year-old empire as a prosperous dynasty.
I'm curious, why are you so eager to get the title of Pioneer Knight? As we all know, a Pioneer Knight can only show his value in turbulent times, and the territories that can be exploited around the empire are basically occupied, and you can only conquer your own territory unless you fight the opening war.
I may give you this title, but I will never grant you your request to invade other countries. The situation between countries affects the whole body, and now is not the time to break this balance, so what is the meaning of this title?"
Finally talking about this issue, Charlie felt a sudden increase in pressure, and whether he succeeded or failed may be determined by his next words.
Charlie took a deep breath and said: "Maybe this meaning is more important to me personally, my situation is not good, even if I lose the inheritance, there are many people who are not at ease, especially my father has left the family, so to speak, the external crisis is everywhere."
I don't want to be a territorial person, I don't want to expand externally, I just want to have a force in a legitimate way to deal with potential enemies and future difficulties.
To this end, I have been making some preparations, funding, talent, partners, etc., all of which are in the service of obtaining this qualification.
If His Royal Highness agrees, I am willing to pay 20% of the dry shares of the tea business, and I hope that His Highness will not dislike it, because it is the most valuable thing I can get my hands on at present. ”
Some things don't need to be explained in such detail, if the prince wants to know Charlie, then Charlie's experience in Haynes City in the past ten years will be exposed in front of his eyes, including what happened in front of his eyes.
Wales laughed and said: "Wealth doesn't mean much to me, and if I want money, I can always get a lot of resources." ”
"Yes, I know that, but for me, it's the only way I can show my sincerity," Charlie said. ”
Wales muttered: "In my opinion, if you want to gain a sense of security, maybe it is more important to improve your strength, for example, if you can cultivate to become a great mage, I believe no one will dare to target you!"
Charlie shook his head and said, "The record of the youngest Grand Magus in the Vagland Continent is 52 years old, and he is also a dragon-blooded dwarf, mixing the natural physique of the dragon clan and the natural magical affinity of the gnome, I don't think my opponent will give me that long time to grow." ”
Wales bowed slightly, lost in thought, and the room became unusually dull, and at this time, the Qianqi siblings were eavesdropping next door, and they also felt the dull atmosphere of the next room through a wall.
The contemplation did not last long, Wales raised his head slightly, and said solemnly: "Yes, I give you the title of pioneer knight, you will become the 13th pioneer knight of the Welsh family, cherish this place." ”
"Really?!" Charlie stood up in surprise.
I felt that this rhetorical question was inappropriate, and hurriedly responded: "Thank you! Thank you, Your Royal Highness!!"
Wales warned: "You need to remember that this is not in accordance with the law, so this is a secret grant, and you must not publicize it to the public, nor can you use the reputation of the Welsh family for any purpose, otherwise I will take everything back at any time, believing that the price is very heavy."
You can recruit your knights, or you can recruit a knight order of no more than 3,000 people, and after authorization, my people will notify the higher jurisdiction of Haynes City, and the military headquarters of the Western Territory will supervise your actions and be careful not to violate the rules. ”
"Understood. ”
Wales bowed slightly, and said, "You also need to understand the duties and duties of the Pioneer Knights, keep them in mind, the specific oath ceremony, which will be presided over by Avida, and I also need a commitment from you." ”
"Your Highness, please speak. ”
"I don't want your money, and I don't want you to pay what price now, you can understand this grant as a long-term investment, if Qianji or Qianxue are in danger in the future, I hope you can think back to this moment, you can spare no effort to help them get through the difficulties, after all, I can't accompany them through their lives. ”
Charlie nodded heavily and said, "Yes, in fact, if Your Highness doesn't say it, I will do the same, they are my friends." ”
"I'm not surprised that you're thinking that way now, but people change. Wales clenched his fist with one hand, thumped his chest and said, "I want you to always remember this moment, remember the investment I made in you, and don't forget your heart." ”
With that, Wales got up and left.
Watching Wales leave, Charlie's joy in his heart could not be suppressed, the blood was rushing in the meridians, at this moment, he just wanted to jump up and shout, wantonly vent the excitement in his heart.
Finally, I am finally qualified to recruit Knight Servant and develop an army openly without worrying that the Empire's war machine will find trouble for me, which means that my starting point is higher than that of my father, this is a knight order that can be equipped with high-level mages, and it is also a knight that can equip many forbidden items.
Finally suppressing the flying emotions, Charlie reflected on the communication with His Royal Highness the Prince, and was able to obtain the qualification of a pioneer knight for two important reasons: first, his relationship with the Qianji siblings played a key role, and second, the wave of beautiful operations in Farrow City was worth investing in to create an image of wisdom and bravery, a wise, talented, and arcane ring crystal badge apprentice.
At this moment, the side door of the room opened.
"Congratulations, Charlie!"
"Thank you, brother!" Charlie hugged him warmly.
Qianzhi smiled and said: "That's your own credit, didn't my father say it! He is optimistic about you, so he invests in you." ”
"Thank you, Chiyuki. ”
"Hmph, do you want to be my dad's lobbyist?" Chiyuki glared at him.
Charlie laughed, "I quite agree with him, the Arcane Ring is not a very interesting place, on the contrary, it is cruel. And if nothing else, when school starts, I will be promoted to second grade, and at that time, I will also be separated from you. ”
"Hey, I'll think about it!"
