After hearing the words of the short old man, Lucien secretly slandered: "I can't even give up a word of praise......"

However, on the surface, Lucien still said modestly and politely: "Yes, Your Excellency, I still have a lot to improve and learn. "This perverted old man can sit next to Lord Hathaway, at least a legendary magician, and he is always right to follow his words.

Gaston, who led Lucien in, smiled at this time, "Evans, this is His Excellency Hathaway, the Grand Arcanist. He first pointed to the beautiful lady and introduced, sure enough, it was the "elemental ruler" that Lucien had guessed, the direct bloodline of the Holm royal family, and Natasha didn't know the "ancestor" of several generations ago.

"The mystery is above, Your Excellency, your light shines on the entire Elemental World. Lucien put his left hand on his chest, pressed his forehead with his right hand, and greeted Hathaway with the highest etiquette of the formal Magic Council.

Hathaway nodded lightly with a cold expression: "The path of mystery and truth does not tolerate a little slack. ”

She was less than words, and her words were concise, as if she were laying out a straight truth, and as if she was mentioning Lucian.

When Hathaway finished speaking, Gaston turned his gaze to the short old man in the bright red robe, and the smile on his face revealed a little fear that he was not aware of, as if he was afraid of saying something wrong and receiving merciless criticism and accusations.

"Evans, this is His Excellency Fernando Balista, the Grand Arcanist. After some deliberation, Gaston still introduced it in the simplest and simplest words. No embellishments and the rest of the utterances were added.

The Storm Master, the Perverted Old Man is the Storm Master, Lucien was surprised, according to the rumors he had heard, the Storm Master was supposed to be a stern, impersonal, unafraid of authority, and irascible arcanist with zero tolerance for mistakes, just like his legendary title. This short and clear man, I can vaguely see that the handsome old man when he was young is really not like it, and his humorous ridicule at the beginning also left a deep impression on Lucian.

But it was thought that Gaston could not have deceived himself with such a thing, unless he wanted to be drowned out by the roar of the real storm lord and the wind and waves. So Lucien saluted solemnly again: "The mystery is above." You are the storm, the lightning, the lord of the sky. ”

As he saluted, Lucien became cautious as well. Carefully consider the words. I'm a little afraid of which one of my actions will be. Which word is wrong and roars, Mr. Lavendi's roar and Storm Domination are certainly not on the same scale.

"Don't be so careful, except for arcane and magical mistakes. I rarely argue over anything else, like when Oliver talks about painting and theater, and I never interject. Fernando laughed and excused himself, allowing Lucien to relax.

But the other people's expressions didn't think so, and Florence said to Lucien with her lips, "That's because he doesn't understand at all." ”

Without waiting for Gaston to introduce the others, Fernando said bluntly: "Lucian, Tang Pu recommended it to me after seeing your first paper, I got some inspiration from it, I think you have basic arcane thinking and certain potential, so I went to the library to see who you are, yes, a very interesting young man, more to my liking." And there are no mistakes in your two papers after that, which is very rare for a young man of your age, and you must know that the papers of some guys in the Supreme Council are also childishly wrong and ridiculously wrong!"

Although he may have been praising himself, Lucien always found his words so strange that they could not be recognized as praise, and completely ignored the fact that there was a Supreme Council next to him.

"The two missions to Beltran Castle and the delivery of a letter to the Dark Mountains have shown you the potential to fight and handle things, which is something that many Arcanists currently lack in the Council and which the Council is working to improve, and I hope you will continue to maintain it. ”

"Lucian, I think that with what you have shown, it should not be limited to the elements and astrology, but step into a broader realm, I want you to follow me to learn arcane and magic and become my student, do you have any opinions?" Fernando, the Storm Lord, retracted his slightly lewd smile and his expression became serious.

According to Lucien's knowledge, although the Storm Lord is a Grand Arcanist of the Thermal Department, he is also good at elemental, electromagnetic, force field, illusion, light and darkness, and is one of the few legendary magicians who is energetic enough to study so many factions at the same time, and has won the highest honors in four different fields, such as the Ice and Snow Medal, the Holm Crown Award, the Silver Moon Medal, and the Wizard Laurel.

After only thinking for a second, Lucien nodded firmly: "It's an honor to be your student." ”

"Very well, you are my student now. Fernando replied seriously.

"Huh?" Lucien, Gaston, Maurice, and Florence all blurted out surprised questions, only the cold and quiet "Elemental Dominator" Hathaway and the middle-aged man beside Fernando did not have any surprised looks.

Fernando snorted: "Now we are a teacher and a student, do you have any questions?"

With such a simple addition of a Grand Arcanist as a teacher, Lucien suddenly had a strong sense of unreality, and Gaston and the others also felt a little ridiculous and dazed, according to the tradition of the ancient Magic Empire to the Magic Council, the summoning of official students is a solemn and serious matter, and it takes a complicated ceremony to show the change in the identities of both parties.

They had always known that Fernando was impatient, short-tempered, and hated troublesome processes, but they didn't expect that his "apprenticeship ceremony" would be so simple that this two-sentence question and answer would be solved!

Seeing that Lucien was still a little ignorant, Fernando's face turned pale: "You follow me to learn arcane and magic is a matter for the two of us, since you are willing, I also agree, do you still need a troublesome ritual?"

"No, teacher, I don't have any doubts. Lucien also hated tedious, unnecessary rituals, so he replied without hesitation. The mentor-apprentice relationship lies in the inner recognition of both parties. And not the external other.

Gaston didn't expect Lucien to answer so simply, and the thought in his heart that they really looked like master and apprentice.

Fernando laughed and said, "Today is the day when several of my students get together to exchange knowledge of arcane and magical research, wait for you to participate too, and listening to the latest research difficulties will help you master the basics and choose the direction of your next research." I have something to talk to Hathaway, and you and Tang Pu will wait for me first. ”

When they returned to the study together, Tang Pu looked at Lucien with a smile: "The teacher never praises others, and the evaluation of you just now is very good." ”

"That's not bad......" Lucien was always a little uncomfortable with a strange teacher, a notoriously bad-tempered arcanist.

Probably seeing Lucian's mood, Florence smiled charmingly, "Little one." His Excellency Fernando was very strict with his disciples. But he is the most protective of all the legendary magicians. If it weren't for him, Hathaway might not have agreed, but she would have preferred Lavendi. ”

"Your Excellency Lavendi?" If Fernando wasn't a Grand Arcanist, Lucien would rather be the familiar Mr. Lavendi.

Gaston still had that strange expression: "It is said that His Excellency Lavendi went to see His Excellency the Storm Master. Someone heard a heated argument breaking out inside. Then His Excellency Lavendi turned pale. It was like going through a storm and came out. Every time he mentioned it, he was not in a good mood. ”

............

Aalto, inside the Inquisition.

"Surrogate" Waldo looked at the report in his hand. He said angrily: "Lucien, Evans turned out to be a magician, he faked his death, and the church and the whole city were teased by him like a fool!

"Is this true?" Cardinal Almorton said with his eyes half-closed, his expression flat.

The "Inquisitor" deep voice seemed to contain infinite anger: "From John's report and the interrogation of the rest of the people, it can be confirmed that Lucien Evans is not dead, and the trap set by him and the professor in the villa is on the one hand, in order to get rid of the traitor and cover the departure of other magicians who know the magic council headquarters, on the other hand, he sensed that the clown was suspicious of him, so he faked his death and framed the clown." The front and back are tightly sealed, and there is no problem at all. ”

"Does Natasha know what to do?" was it concealed, or was it cooperated?" Ammorton's eyes opened, and a chill rose from his gaze over the Substitute and the others.

The inquisitor shook his head: "Judging from the confession, Her Royal Highness the princess did not know what to do, and at that time she accepted Waldo's stop, did not take advantage of the situation to kill the clown, and returned the pursuit of the clown to the night watchman, and did not worry that the clown would be found in advance, so that the bishop could be cured, it can be judged from this point that she is not clear, and it should also be used by Lucian, but afterwards, according to Lucian, she wants to seek her forgiveness, and she may know about it at present." ”

"That's good. "The professor and Lucien are really insidious and cunning, but compared to the professor's ruthlessness, Lucien still looks young, and he still wants to take Joel's family to the Kingdom of Holm, otherwise how could his identity be revealed so quickly." ”

The Agent said angrily: "Lord Amerton, we quickly reveal the true identity of this hypocrite to the outside world, shatter the halo that hangs over him, destroy his fake tomb, and turn him into a criminal hated by everyone in Alto!"

And then? And tell everyone that the church is an idiot, a fool? The "Ode to Joy," which is known as a strong praise for the true God, and the "Ode to Joy," which is often performed in churches, is actually the work of the devil, mocking the Lord? This kind of thing that shakes the foundation of believers must not happen. "Anyway, the great musician is dead, whether he has the same name or surname, or he looks the same, he is a magician, a magician who can disguise himself, and has nothing to do with musicians." ”

"What do you mean, Lord Amorton?" said the magistrate, thoughtfully.

Instead of answering his question, Almorton continued: "Inform the Diocese of Holm about Lucien, keep an eye on them, and send a few Night's Watch over, they should be happy to see 'old friends.'" (To be continued......)
