Chapter Ninety-Five: Open
That night, Salian lay alone on his bed in the single dormitory provided by the academy, carefully considering the pros and cons of the agreement. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
What they had paid for was only their intellect and their lives, but they were given the opportunity to influence the situation on the continent, which made Salian feel that at least the gains would not outweigh the losses, and that it was glorious to fight for the love of a young man and a woman in an era when romanticism and chivalry were still admired.
Although Salian had never even met them, not even the two of them. But what does it matter? He didn't know Max and his son at all a year ago, and now he has become a hero in the founding of the dynasty.
Thinking so, Salian fell asleep cheerfully and cheerfully.
Early the next morning, the client, Miss Lantony, knocked on Salian's door, and she brought all the information Salian needed, the background, personality, hobbies, and relationships of the people, but the most important thing was the start-up capital, and the cost of organizing the expedition was not a small amount!
As the future monarch, Makminus naturally will not do it himself, and he still has tasks in the academy, so the implementation of the specific plan depends on Salian. Under the careful arrangement of Miss Lantony, who had great power in the school, Salian was granted the privilege of free entry and exit from the college in the name of off-campus practice.
While he was flipping through the documents related to the mission, Salian also asked the beautiful female teacher a few questions of interest.
"Dear Miss Lantony, I've been curious since yesterday, you seem to know our itinerary very well?! ”
"Hehe, as a partner, there are some things I don't want to hide from you, you must know Master Krachner next to His Royal Highness Maxinus, right?!"
"Oh, I see, the master seems to be your man!"
"Oops, you think too highly of me, Master Krachner is only on good terms with my father, and our Varno family was originally one of the patrons of the Assassin Guild. We still have a good relationship. ”
"Oh, I see, so many things are also easy to explain, and it seems that you also have the credit for the election of the emperor in our Divine Grace Empire!"
It suddenly occurred to Salian that the Varno family must also be present in the operation against Count Redhoff.
"Hehe, speaking of which...... Actually, I have some information that the Duke is interested in, such as what Akatsuki will do if you are in serious opposition to you. ”
"Oh, then, how can you provide it to me?" said Salian's eyes.
"Please work hard for my sugar cane with peace of mind!"
"Haha, you're a typical Itkanria. I got it!"
"I'll take this as a compliment for now, sir, if you're leaving the academy, go find that little fellow Kaz, and he'll take you out. ”
Hearing her say this, Salian also understood the meaning of Kaz's slight smile when he left yesterday, it turned out that all this was arranged by this beauty, and it seems that he must be more cautious in the future.
Three days later, the academy began to give formal classes, and at that time, there was no such thing as an opening ceremony or entrance ceremony, and learning depended entirely on personal consciousness.
In the class of Malville, a professor of political science and philosophy, Salian also met the Grand Master of their Order of the Dead Spirits, Count Sebastian von Riddlelingen. After class, the two of them met for a drink in the college's tavern.
"Salian, why didn't you go to the southernmost tip of the continent if you didn't sit in the northeast!"
"Haha, Sebastian. I can't help it, I'm actually forced!"
From the day they met, he regarded Grand Master as his bosom friend, and told Sebastian all about the purpose of his study.
After listening to Salian's words, the Grand Commander smiled and said, "Haha, then for the sake of His Highness's love, let me help you too!"
"That's all right, I'll take you to meet His Highness Maximinus now, for I'll have to leave the academy for a while in a few days, and the rest will depend on you. ”
"Well, you're still busy with official business when you're studying!"
"Maybe I like this life. Come, after drinking this wine, let's go!"
"Great!"
They toasted heartily, then threw down the money and left.
Max was also glad to see someone he knew in the Academy, and besides, the Imperial Count of Ridlingen was also an important figure in his faction anyway, and was highly recommended by Salian. Max wanted to pursue the girl here in peace, so he couldn't go out, and it would be nice to have someone to help him after Salian left.
And the Duchess Lola de Grandi and Yulia had a cross-sectional study, both of them studying under the pharmacy professor Cosimo, and according to Salian's plan, first of all, Yulia would try her best to get close to her and have a good relationship with her.
Even better, the pharmacist Professor Cosimo was a classmate of Yulia's master, Zolvik, and before they left for the Academy, Zolvik wrote a letter for Yulia to bring to him. Of course, if there is no benefit, even classmates who have known each other for decades are actually useless, so the letter also enclosed a deed of deposit of five thousand florin gold coins, and with these things, things went smoothly.
In addition to political science and the history of ancient empires, Salian also took a course in space-time magic, but he didn't have any magical abilities yet, so he could only listen to basic courses and take notes, and nothing else. And because the other students all have a certain foundation in magic, Salian is the only one in the beginner class.
In fact, this professor of space-time magic is not small, Master Scottino jumped from the Seven Towers School of Magic to Auguste Academy at a high price, because he is a native of Sana Island and wants to make his own contribution to the construction of his hometown, but this is only what the master himself told Salian, what he really thinks, no one knows.
Space-time magic is originally a profound discipline, and the accumulation of theoretical knowledge is most emphasized in science and magic, but fortunately, although Salian does not have superior intelligence, he has no shortage of memory and hard work, and he is also proficient in Itkanria. Relying on the greeting gift given to Master Scottino and telling him that he had a way to improve his ability to improve the affinity of space-time magic, the professor began to tutor him in the introductory subjects in earnest, although the not-so-high time-space archmage was not optimistic about Salion's prospects, believing that everything he did was useless.
In their quest for the fundamentals of the world, the magicians of the Ancient Empire discovered that certain magical creatures were born with the ability to use magic that could turn time and space, just as electric eels were able to use lightning magic. After hundreds of years of hard work, although space-time magic cannot be almost completely mastered by humans like elemental magic, it has also developed many practical skills that can greatly enhance its own abilities, acceleration, deceleration, and teleportation are all very practical. Combined with alchemy, engineering, etc., it has also created training houses for various training purposes, training houses that slow down the passage of time, teleportation circles, and space rings.
This kind of high-dimensional theory can't be done without a foundation, especially since Salian is now seventeen years old and doesn't have much time to waste. After entering the Academy, he only rested for six hours a day, and spent most of the rest of his time swimming in the ocean of knowledge, and a month later, Master Scottino was surprised to tell him that he no longer had to take classes in the beginner class, and that he had fully mastered what a magical apprentice should have. Now, except for the small problem of not being able to use magic, Salian can be said to be a space-time trainee magician.
"Your Excellency, you are so hardworking, do you really have the confidence that you can change your body's magical affinity, as far as I know, this is not an easy task?"
"Haha, dear professor, we Tutonians are very practical, and we don't waste time on things that we are not sure about!"
The next day, Salian began his formal space-time magic course, but there were only two students in the class, including Salian. There is no comparison with the lively elemental magic discipline of ten or twenty people at every turn.
Another classmate was also from a well-known family, the second daughter of the Marquis de Valde, lord of the southern province of Noon in the Kingdom of François, and Mademoiselle Lille de Valde. A real genius of space-time magic, no one in the Kingdom of François could be her teacher at the age of fifteen, so at the age of sixteen, she came to the Auguste Academy this year and worshiped under Master Scottino. The master also poured his money into cultivating her to become the next time-space archmage.
Now when the master and apprentice are teaching and learning from each other, it is really ridiculous that there is a character who has nothing in common at all. Fortunately, Salian was not a bad man, and Miss Lil was a well-educated lady, so they kept a minimum of friendliness without disturbing Miss Marquis's studies.
But we have to mention that it is the peerless appearance of this François girl, she has heard of the appearance of Salian, but after seeing it with his own eyes, he still made Salian shocked, and he felt that there was only his enemy, and the elf of the long-eared tribe made Kovanne able to compete with this beauty. Her delicate features could not be replicated by even the greatest sculptor, and her grace could not be described by even the most brilliant poets. Although Salian seemed very indifferent on the surface, he had already made up his mind to get the Franços girl in three years at the academy.
Unfortunately, time is of the essence, and there is so much for Salian to do. Soon after, Maximinus received a reply, for he had written to his father, Higismund V, as soon as he had reached an agreement with Miss Lantony, and that the Emperor of the Divine Grace Empire knew that his son's judgment was far superior to his own, and therefore fully supported his decision.
However, it was still nominally necessary to obtain this confirmation letter before the agreement was officially reached, and it was finally time for Salian's plan to be put into action.
