[Speaking of which, isn't the extremely expensive money shop you often go to called Gerald?]

Halfway through, the system's words continued as always, but Brunei had long been used to it, and now he would only respond selectively to it: "Duplicate the name." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

[Hey, really? The tradition of naming shops is to use the family name as a family name, so that when Lao Tzu dies and his son inherits, he can save the cost of changing the signboard, isn't it?]

Brunei is not interested in arguing with the system right now: "It's the repetition of a name and someone else's last name." It's not that rare, either. ”

[Really...... Well, that's right, after all, you're still lagging behind in an era when only a few people have a surname. 】

For a guy who claims to be the "Sun King" of 50,000 years ago, he often says that he is backward now, which is really full of slots. But for almost a year, this guy has been chattering in his ears like this, and Brunei has long since stopped making any comments. After a brief period of peace, Brunei took two quick steps before the system found a new topic.

"Looks like this is it. Be a little quieter. At least don't be noisy all the time. Brunei took out the note that William had stuffed in his hand, "South 3rd District...... It's a remote place. I remember looking for a home here when I first had money. But in fact, a large area around it is full of residential areas, which is very inconvenient. I was really tricked at the time. ”

The fact is that there are a large number of people living here, and it is widely accepted that the houses here are the best. The person who introduced you should be a rare conscientious businessman, you can't be so innocent out of thin air. 】

"......," Brunei subconsciously smiled, "It's really rare." ”

【What?】

"You actually took the initiative to explain it to me for others. Don't you usually deliberately provoke my anger and make my actions move in the direction of being perverse and irritable? Oh, and you like to solve problems with violence. Brunei sneered, "Don't say you don't." I'm not saying that you use magic to interfere with my mind, but that you've been using words to lure me like this. ”

【...... Ah. Haha, where is it, I've always made fair and just evaluations based on common sense, huh?]

Brunei came to a wooden door, which itself looked rather old, not a large piece of wood divided in half, but made of strips of wood, covered with stains and pitted dents, which looked like insect bites, and rarely, did not seem to be able to see directly through the holes or crevices inside.

The system saw that Brunei ignored it, so it naturally changed the topic: [It doesn't look very rich, little Brunei, do you say that the goods in this are really reliable? It can't be that William wants to trap you, right?]

Brunei smiled imperceptibly: "Look, this is like what you said." After all, it's just a promotion from a mage apprentice to a mage. Now I also understand that this matter is not as important as I thought it would be, and that William and the others should be busy with other things. Originally, I didn't think that I would be able to become a mage so easily. ”

[Well, your first goal now is to find a magic squire, right? But do you really have to be an imperial mage? Do you want me to remind you, in fact, you don't have your own magic at all-]

"Shut up. Brunei sighed inwardly, took a deep breath, and knocked the wooden door.

Different from the iron door, the reaction of the wooden door after being knocked is very obvious, not only the sound is very loud, but also the inside and outside swaying, as if it is about to be broken up, so Brunei Darussalam collected some strength, "Dong Dong".

Waited outside the door for ten seconds, but there was no response inside. Brunei raised his hand again and smashed it with a punch: "Is Mr. Gerald there?" After repeating it three times, Brunei faintly heard a low cough from inside: "Ahem." ”。

After that, there was no sound. After Brunei shouted twice, he paused and thought for a moment: "Mr. Gerald, Mr. Robsky, or Miss Miltrov, I must have mentioned to you about me, right?"

The attempt paid off, and Brunei thought that perhaps he was halfway through the sentence - let's say, "Robeski" or "Miltrov", and the guy inside immediately ran towards the door and opened it at the first moment.

What catches your eye is a middle-aged man who looks neat and polite at first glance, and if you look closely, you can easily see that he is hasty and lazy when dressing, the white shirt that perfectly fits the figure, the collar and cuffs are all wrinkled, the strands of hair that fall off the bangs that are combed to the left are not deliberate, the heel of the left foot does not fit smoothly in the shoe, and most importantly, his white silk gloves are only worn on the left hand, and the back of the bare right hand is a beautiful and intricate pattern.

The central motif is a snake, and the extension motif is vines and leaves, all the way to the cuffs, hidden in the sleeves.

Mages of the second turn and above, whose attributes are unknown, but the magic emblem they use is at least intermediate or above...... Brunei was taken aback, should he be said to be the heir of the top big family in the Federation? Even the people who were found casually in College City were of such a high standard.

Brunei smiled, and after scanning for two seconds, he pulled his eyes back to the other party's face, the other party's figure was almost as tall as Brunei's, but at this time he was half-bent over, and his head was a little low, so that Brunei couldn't quite see the half-long and messy beard on his chin, and a pair of dark blue eyes were still looking up and down, carefully studying the details of Brunei's body.

"Are you, Mr. Gerald?" Brunei interrupted the other's repeated glances and spoke, deliberately keeping his gaze on the other.

"Hah...... You're not Lord William, are you?" the silver-gray haired man with blue-black eyes did not answer, but asked Brunei instead, "You are probably - Carlisle?"

Brunei smiled, he had always thought that even if the other person couldn't see it, when he laughed, he would say something differently: "Brunei Carlisle." The Imperial is an apprentice mage, but he is a commoner. Just call me Bruneisi. ”

"Pop" The man's left hand suddenly slapped on his right shoulder, his body straightened, and then leaned back a little, the faint contrived smile on his face disappeared, turning into a face that could not be said to be arrogant and ridiculous or bored and wanted to commit suicide, and his silver-gray beard was also raised high: "Oh, I know, come in." ”

The corners of Brunei's mouth twitched, and it was at this time that this mask was especially useful.

The man turned around and swaggered into his room, and there was a "squeak" and a comfortable moan, and after a long time, he shouted, "Remember to close the door when you come in." ”

Brunei turned around, walked through the cramped corridor that he had just walked halfway through, made sure that the door was indeed closed, and then walked back through the two closed room doors to the room where the man had been.

The man's whole body was sunk in a large, fluffy cube-like object, which Brunei had heard of before, as if it was called a "sofa", and his two feet had kicked the half-worn shoes into nowhere, and soaked them in a large wooden barrel, and the steaming water vapor on the barrel showed that its temperature was really not low.

The last time Brunei met a person who liked to soak his feet was when he first entered the Endless Mountains, and the first adventurer hut he entered met only one side of the old Luke, old Luke helped him a lot, and he didn't know that it was Luke who sold his whereabouts to the city lord of Garth, so his impression of old Luke was quite good, and furthermore, his impression of this man also improved a lot.

The man didn't look at Brunei, he just lay there, not knowing what to think, and after a while, he said to Brunei, who was still standing at the door of the room, "Ah, that's right. Just call me Mr. Gerald. ”

"Yes. Brunei nodded cautiously. Since the other party is a mage who has more than two turns, it is better not to be too presumptuous. The knowledge he had learned today was still spinning in Brunei's mind, and he no longer dared to treat the second-turn mage as frivolously as before.

Mr. Gerald sat up abruptly and looked at Brunei with strange eyes: "Are you a stuffy gourd?"

"Huh?" Brunei was stunned for a moment, "What—I mean, what did you say?"

Mr. Gerald stopped talking, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at Brunei's face as if he were looking at something strange, but half of Brunei's face was hidden under the mask, and he didn't know what he was looking at. After a while, he suddenly grinned, laughed, raised his hand and pressed his right sleeve, and tugged at it violently.

The vines spread to the forearm and became more and more dense, occasionally dotted with a few red fruits, if you look closely, you can see that the vines are also mixed with green snake bodies, and the red highlights are not necessarily fruits, some of them are snake eyes, but these are not important, the important thing is that these vines do not end in the small arm, but extend to the big arm......

Three-turn mage?!even, legendary mage?!Brunei Si's whole person was stunned.

Presumably his wide-eyed eyes betrayed his mood swings, and Mr. Gerald chuckled evilly, "I see." You saw my magic emblem, so, scared?"

"It's a natural reverence for the strong. Subconsciously, Brunei said the type of words that the system liked to say. Regardless of the way of word formation and the logic of expression, there are subtle differences from what Brunei is familiar with.

"Awe, well, awe. I love the word. Mr. Gerald repeated the not-so-special words with an expression of intoxication like a wine, and then laughed evilly again, "Brunei, huh?"

Brunei carefully guessed the type that the other party might like, and no longer had the same etiquette as before: "Yes." ”

"I'll show you something good. With that, Mr. Gerald removed the glove from his left hand, revealing the back of his left hand—a completely different pattern on it, but the flickering light confirmed that it was indeed a magic emblem.

"Huh?"
