Chapter 61: Cold Sweat (1st Update)
The knight candidates who obeyed Fürth's orders, after receiving the orders, these people scattered in the Academy of Magic.
Just after the morning class, it was lunch break, and many students either went back to the dormitory to rest, or had fun in the rest area of the college, and most of them were quite bored.
The news that these knight candidates were going to fight a duel with Xu Mu, a foreign weapon, spread the news, and these students became interested.
You must know that the knight candidates from other countries who came before were basically bullied in private and couldn't take care of themselves, and everyone on the table would not give face to his countrymen.
But now that Fürth was openly bullying a foreigner, it was really a bit of fun, and the students who had nothing to do rushed to the dueling arena.
Before the news spread, the stands of the dueling arena were already crowded, usually there were no major events in the academy, and the students of the magic academy could not come so together.
There is also a special grandstand at the highest point of the dueling arena, which looks like a normal wall from the outside, but from the inside of the wall, you can see the outside scene clearly.
In the inner stands, there were three old men dressed in magical gold Watanabe Mentor robes, with gray hair and bright eyes, and the three of them glanced at each other from time to time, but neither of them spoke first.
The atmosphere in the inner stands was a bit weird, as if whoever spoke first lost everything, but it didn't take long for something to break the atmosphere.
At the door of the inner grandstand walked in a mentor, who was the same person who had approved the use of the voucher for the Duel of Fürth and the dueling arena, and he came in and saw the three old men, trembling.
"Nikon has seen three deans..."
The three old men sitting in the inner stand are the three deans of the Heaney School of Magic, and the reputation of the three of them in the Heane Kingdom is not much worse than that of the magic genius of the Betty family, and the Heane Kingdom is also because of the relationship between the Betty family, and the Heane Kingdom is more advocating magic than other kingdoms.
Magic is the first thing, magic is the only thing.
Even magic was higher than certain positions in Heaney's court.
Fortunately, the Heaney royal family is not stupid, the three deans are the same as the Betty family, they all have the right to speak, but they have no substantive power, and the three of them can't interfere in the political affairs of the court.
"Nikon. The old man sitting on the throne was the first to speak, "I heard that you allowed this duel?"
"Yes, yes. Nikon was a little scared, you must know that the deans don't ask about these things, but today the three deans are all here!
"I remember that the Academy of Magic strictly forbids students to fight each other, right?"
"Yes. Nikon's eyes fluttered from side to side, and he hurriedly said, "But this time the nature is a little different... I heard that the Felt student and Xu Mu are the two of them have made an appointment to fight each other, not using magic, and the two sides have the spirit of contract, if Xu Mu loses, he will take a detour when he sees the Felt student in the future... And if Student Xu Mu wins, then he will be able to obtain 2000 magic points in the Crystal Card of Student Fürth. ”
The old man on the left side of the main seat couldn't help but sneer: "Yes, there is no rule in the academy that students are not allowed to gamble and fight." ”
Nikon was a little confused about the meaning of the three deans and did not dare to speak again.
The old man sitting in the main seat, his fingers tapped on the seat, and he seemed to be a little unhappy, and after a while: "This time... Forget it, the next time this happens, if you still allow this to happen, you don't have to stay in the academy. ”
Nikon suddenly sweated behind his back when he heard this, and quickly nodded yes. He wanted to leave immediately, but the three deans didn't mean to let him go, but called him to sit down in front of the stands.
After Nikon's repeated resignations, the dean let Nikon stand.
"The Academy is closely related to the Heane Kingdom, but it has to be separated from the Heane court. I don't remember telling you about this once, did I?"
Nikon wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his hand, he didn't expect that the dean would hold him accountable for such a simple matter, and he didn't dare to shirk it now: "Yes." ”
"Fürth has a significant family background, and may even be married to Bettina in the future, but this has nothing to do with our house. The old man on the left sneered again, "I know that the reason why you agreed to this is mainly because of Fürth's family, and secondarily because the opponent is a foreigner. Isn't it?"
"Yes..."
The old man sitting on the right side of the main seat had never spoken, but now he suddenly opened his mouth and scolded, and his tone was excited: "Do you know who that other country person is! You don't even know the identity of that person, so you allow him to duel with Fürth, are you trying to make trouble for the academy? !
Nikon couldn't help but be frightened when he heard this, his brain spun quickly, could it be that Xu Mu's identity was peculiar?
"Old Mo, you can put out the fire. The old man on the throne laughed, he looked at Nikon, his eyes were indifferent, he stretched out his finger and pointed to the dueling arena outside, and said flatly: "The Fürth family is extremely prominent in the Heane Kingdom, this is true. It's almost the same to give face, but when it comes to the matter of principle, I hope you know how to do it next time. Also, the student named Xu Mu has a somewhat special identity. ”
Nikon asked cautiously, "Student Xu Mu... What the hell?"
"Heaney is the captain of the royal knights. ”
"What?!" Nikon exclaimed as a stiff body, and then found that he was very rude, and quickly lowered his head: "This... Impossible, Xu Mu is a person from the Kailie Kingdom, how can he be the captain of the knights? Could it be that he lied about his identity?"
"No, he didn't lie about his identity, he was indeed from the Kailie Kingdom, at most his identity was not confessed. ”
Nikon thought about it, but still felt unbelievable, and quickly shook his head: "Dean... Forgive Nikon for being abrupt, I still don't think this is fake? Anyway, I've never heard any news about the captaincy of the Cavaliers, especially since the first batch of knight candidates will return to the capital next year, how..."
"yes... I didn't believe it when I first knew about it, but when it came to my desk, I had to believe it. The old man sighed, "I don't know why I let Xu Mu be the captain of the knights, and I don't want to know, let alone get involved." As for why the news of his appointment has not spread, maybe you can think about it with your brain, or find a few old qualified mentors yourself, and you will understand, after all, those mentors are very 'familiar' with the nobles of the court..."
When he said the latter, the old man's tone was aggravated, and the taste was a little weird, and Nikon knew what the dean was talking about.
Nikon was still in a daze, and suddenly remembered something, if Xu Mu was the captain of the Cavaliers, and now Fürth was going to challenge him!
A noble kid is going to challenge the captain of the Kingdom Knights...!
Especially this duel, which he Nikon agreed to...
Cold sweat broke out from Nikon's forehead again.
