The entrance to the Carroston Magical Guild.

Patrick rolled off his horse and walked straight in, and an apprentice walked briskly.

"I'm Patrick, where is Giroud?" he asked.

"Dear Master Patrick, please follow me, Master Giroud has been waiting for you for a long time. The apprentice bowed unusually respectfully, stretched out his hand to guide Patrick, and led Patrick inside.

"Mage Patrick. Giroud, who was arranging a few people's lodging behind the Magic Guild, saw Patrick and immediately pulled over and saluted him respectfully.

This time, there were many more people from the mage group than planned, in addition to arranging seven mages, they also had to arrange more than a dozen of their apprentices and dozens of servants, and there was no such room in the magic guild for these mages and mage retinues.

"You're Giroud?" Patrick glanced at Giroud.

"Yes, Master Patrick, I'm Giroud, and I'd love to welcome you to Carouston City. Giroud said respectfully.

Patrick nodded, and said to him with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "I saw a report about Master Li Xuan in the Imperial Magic Guild, you can arrange it, I will go to visit Master Li Xuan tomorrow." ”

Giroud was stunned when he heard what Patrick said, he heard Patrick say to visit Li Xuan? and Patrick's tone, Giroud seemed to hear some expectations from his tone?

Seeing Giroud's expression, Patrick put away the smile on his face, frowned and asked him, "Is there any problem?"

Giroud hurriedly said to him: "Master Patrick, there is some accident here, please come with me, I will take you to have a look, and then I will tell you in detail." ”

Patrick's face was gloomy, Giroud led the way in front of him, and not long after, he walked to a room, Giroud pushed the door in, and there was a man with a wounded face lying on the bed in the room.

"Ian, tell me what's going on, Giroud, where are the Quincys? Patrick's tone cooled when he saw Ian, who was still unconscious on the bed.

Giroud's heart trembled, and he hurriedly said to Patrick: "When I arrived in the afternoon, Master Ian had a conflict with the three magicians who were about to quit the magic guild, and verbally collided with Master Li Xuan. ”

"Tell me the details. Patrick frowned and said, he didn't understand why Ian had a conflict with those three mages, and why did he verbally attack Li Xuan?

"When Master Ian got out of the carriage, he said that he was ordered by you to investigate Master Li Xuan, and his tone was rather blunt, and the three of them had become Master Li Xuan's apprentices, but Master Ian didn't know about it at first, and then asked the three of them to take off the magic guild's robes in public, so they clashed. ”

"After the move, Master Ian continued to ask them to take off their robes, and the three of them said that they were already Master Li Xuan's apprentices, and then ......" Giroud paused as he said this.

Patrick's face was gloomy and he spoke to him, "Go on." ”

"Master Ian, he, he is still chasing them and asking them to take off their clothes, and he is a little disrespectful to Master Li Xuan in words. Giroud was at a loss.

"Master Ian said that Master Li Xuan was a liar in public, and Master Li Xuan happened to pass by and heard it, so he ......" Giroud said this, and quickly shut his mouth, he found that Patrick's face was now extremely ugly.

"Take me to Quincy. Patrick opened his mouth to Giroud.

"Yes, Master Patrick. Giroud hurriedly led the way in front of him, not daring to look at Patrick's extremely gloomy face.

Without another glance at Ian, Patrick followed Giroud, his chest heaving and heaving, suppressing his anger.

Patrick couldn't remember how many years he hadn't been so angry, and thinking that his chance to move up the ladder might be ruined by Ian's stupid behavior, Patrick wished that a bolt of lightning would smash him to charcoal.

He knew that Ian's personality was a little arrogant, but he didn't expect Ian to be so stupid as a small intermediate mage to dare to challenge the dignity of a high-level mage, and insult a high-level mage in public, saying that Li Xuan was a liar! Patrick only hated that he was not there at the time, otherwise he would have personally killed this pit master on the spot.

It hadn't been long before Giroud stopped at the door of a room, and Patrick pushed the door in, where Quincy was holding some test tubes and glassware on the table.

Seeing that it was Patrick, and his face was gloomy, Quincy immediately put down the glass bottle and jar in his hand, and immediately walked over and bent down to salute: "Master Patrick." ”

"Tell me about Ian in detail, and don't hide any details. Patrick spoke.

Seeing Patrick's gloomy face, Quincy felt uneasy, and hurriedly said to Patrick: "When we arrived in Carouston City today, Mage Ian asked the three mages who had quit the magic guild to take off their robes, and attacked one of them, injuring him. ”

"I don't want those three people to be Master Li Xuan's apprentices, after the three of them identified themselves, Master Ian ignored them and said that Master Li Xuan was a liar who cheated money, and cast a spell to attack the maid next to Master Li Xuan, Master Li Xuan's backhand 'magic arrow' shattered Ian's Hercules shield and knocked Ian away. ”

"After Master Ian was knocked unconscious, I went up to the circle and asked Master Li Xuan to forgive Ian, and Master Li Xuan said that we should take out 100,000 gold coins and send them to his manor within 2 days, otherwise we would cut off Master Ian's tongue. ”

When Patrick heard this, his face, which had been gloomy, suddenly changed, and he asked Quincy in surprise: "You mean that Master Li Xuan will forgive Ian if he wants 100,000 gold coins?"

Quincy hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, that's what Master Li Xuan said, and Master Giroud must have heard it." ”

"Hahahaha, okay, this thing, you did a good job, you did it right. Patrick happily praised Quincy.

Quincy was directly stunned by Patrick's praise, not knowing why he praised himself, and said stubbornly: "But we don't have that many gold coins." ”

Patrick waved his hand and said to him, "You should contact all the chambers of commerce in Carroston now, and I will see 100,000 gold coins before dawn tomorrow." ”

After Quincy heard this, he was dumbfounded, didn't react, and asked to look at Patrick, wondering if he had heard it wrong.

Patrick glanced at him and commanded, "Go ahead and do it immediately, Giroud, you cooperate with Quincy to contact the Chamber of Commerce." ”

Li Xuan's manor.

Noah, the eldest son of Viscount Orin, was talking to Li Xuan about the materials at this time, and Vivian heard that the materials for building the meditation room and preparing the awakening liquid were ready, and happily asked Li Xuan when he could start formal magic learning.

After talking to Noah, Li Xuan decided to build the meditation house in the north area of the manor, and the configuration of the awakening liquid would be in the idle wine cellar in the manor, where a laboratory would be built to prepare the awakening liquid.

After explaining the matter, Vivien followed Noah back to the castle, and the three mages also went back to pack their belongings, Li Xuan asked them all to move to the manor to live, such a large manor, there are too many idle rooms, just the second floor of the main building, there are twelve rooms, and the annex building with the stables on the east side is also empty, and then the servants will move in to live.

After everyone left, Li Xuan was finally free, and the servants were still cleaning up the manor everywhere, Boris did have the talent of being a great housekeeper, and he commanded in an orderly manner, and he also told Li Xuan that he could have dinner and rest and sleep in the manor at night.

Boris also asked for the name of the manor, and to make a manor plaque and a manor logo.

Li Xuan thought for a long time, and finally looked at the two rows of maple trees at the gate of the manor, and made a final decision: "It's called Maple Leaf Manor, and the logo is a maple leaf." ”
