Chapter 8 Companions
"Mr. Gray, this friend of mine has always been very interested in magic, I heard that you don't have an apprentice yet, I wonder if he has the good fortune to learn magic from you?" Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ash has always hated troublesome things, so he has never had the idea of accepting apprentices for thirty years, and he is willing to come here to prepare potions for this group of people, first, he usually eats and lives with the funds of the royal city, and second, the old man's gift really touched him.
The famous mages who live in Black Dragon City are all supported by the royal city, so they need to be provided for by the king when necessary.
It's just that these six princes came to give that kid a head, and it was not good to refuse directly, so let him retreat.
"If he's interested, I can test him for learning magic, and if he can pass the test, of course there's no problem, Black Dragon City is always in need of fresh blood. ”
Alan happily brought the good news to Il, who had just woken up and was still lying weakly in bed. Ilr got up excitedly and was about to salute Ash. Do you finally have a chance? It seems that it is a good thing to mention that you have been poisoned.
Ash took out a few apples, "What color apple juice do you usually drink?" Il thought for a moment, what color is it? red or green?
Alan anxiously replied for him, "You are stupid, apple juice is brownish-red! Don't we drink it often in winter?"
Il scratched his head in embarrassment, he usually ate and drank with Allen, and he didn't pay attention to it.
"Your Highness is right, but I don't know if you know that when an apple is first cut, it is yellowish-white and leaves it for a while before turning brown. "Il seems to have the impression that he doesn't like to eat apples, so why doesn't this teacher ask the color of the cake? "The pure apple was infected by the demonic aura that existed in the world, so it turned into the color of plasma. ”
For the first time, Ash showed his magic, and the apple was originally placed in the bowl intact, but under Ash's spell, it turned into juice, leaving only two halves of the apple peel standing in the middle of the bowl, and Alan immediately took the peel out.
Il's eyes straightened, and for the first time he had seen the power of magic. The magic had captured all of his attention, not even the remaining pain in his body.
"Now I will teach you a mantra, you stare at the apple juice every day, if they change color it is a failure, you need to prepare again, I have a week to leave the palace, your deadline is up to then. As he spoke, there were words in his mouth to the effect that it was the breath of an evil demon, and I would destroy you on behalf of the sun, and then he waved his hand, and the juice in the bowl vibrated for a moment.
"I've cast spells on juices, and they're no longer corrupted by demonic breath. ”
Seeing the two children's eyes widen in surprise, Ash nodded with satisfaction.
Alan sent the ashes away, and when he returned to the house, Il was chanting some strange spell on another bowl of juice, and he looked at the bowl with a serious expression, attentive, even the slightest wave of his hand imitated the appearance of ashes.
Ash walked down the road, he couldn't help but feel funny, he knew that the kid couldn't succeed at all, learning magic was not so easy, he better dismiss it as soon as possible.
It's just that he didn't know that after he left, the blonde boy had been staring at the juice in front of him, chanting the spell in his mouth over and over again, and the head of Alan next to him was big.
Alan had something to say to him, but seeing his attentive appearance, he instructed the maid who took care of him and left quietly.
After reciting the incantation dozens of times, the juice did not change at all, not even the process of changing color slowed down at all, he knocked on the table unwillingly, and suddenly felt the scar on his shoulder that he had never cared about actually itch.
On the first day, Il's persistent chanting spell on a bowl, and on the second, third, and fourth days, Eren went to look for him eight times, and every time he saw him, he held the bowl and chanted, and he was afraid that Il's demonic breath would not be destroyed, and he would be enchanted first.
Shaxx was an excellent court swordsman who had been in the service of our great King for many years.
In addition to the normal guarding of the palace, he has an enviable job, which is to guide our His Majesty's favorite child, His Royal Highness Allen, in sword practice.
Although this is definitely a beautiful thing to outsiders, after all, it is a great honor to be the prince's teacher, but the bitterness in his heart is only known to himself.
Dear His Royal Highness Alan does not like these things of dancing with knives and guns, he prefers history and chess, so every time he is absent-minded in his guidance to Shaxx, when he says to His Highness that as a member of the royal family, he should have the ability to protect himself, he will be defeated by His Highness's pitiful eyes, and always say to him:
"My safety depends on you, hard-working Shaxx Swordsman. Then run away from his lessons.
Even the new escort who was two years younger than him could already master a lot of skills, and our Royal Highness the Sixth Prince still hadn't made any progress.
He recently heard the news that the little attendant had been recognized by the great magician and was able to go to Black Dragon City to study magic, and it seemed that he would not have to waste time with His Highness Allen in the future.
And the atmosphere in the palace has been very tense recently, and a cook who doesn't know the height of the sky dares to poison His Royal Highness Allen, but fortunately the prince didn't have an accident, otherwise all the guards would have suffered.
However, His Majesty was furious and wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly. Dare to make a small gesture in the palace under the eyes of His Majesty the King, doesn't this just show that there is a huge security hazard in the palace? Today it is His Royal Highness Allen, and tomorrow if it is calculated on the head of His Majesty the King, it will be fine?
Shaxx remembered that the king was sick again, could it really be that someone had done something to His Majesty?
But the people of the whole country know who is the most suspicious, it is none other than those two, and they themselves know that they will be suspected, and they all came to prove their innocence last night.
His Royal Highness Allen also came this morning, but His Majesty the King came to him.
"Father, the son is here. ”
The king had already sat down at the table, and after saluting, Alan sat down on the side seat, and the king picked up the knife and fork, but hesitated for a long time without touching any food and put it down, looking at the child born to his youngest son, the woman he loved the most, Alan had looked like her since childhood.
"Who did this incident, and what do you think?"
“...... Probably which minister is not pleasing to me, a prince of impure blood?" Ellen looked up with a smile, showing her white teeth, "I know that you are the only one in the entire palace who loves me. ”
The king waved his hand, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, his self-deprecating expression distressing the king.
"I can't figure out what your two brothers think, their power is getting bigger and bigger, which doesn't bode well. Hmph, I'm not dead yet!" the king slapped the table three times angrily, "hoping that I would die soon enough to make way for them." ”
"You know, I'm no better than my two brothers, and the ministers don't like me. He shrugged his shoulders indifferently, as if he were not at all indifferent to what the ministers were saying.
"Yesterday, your third brother came to me and said that he had found out that the chef had been in contact with someone from your eldest brother's faction, and he also provided a witness. Do you think it's credible?"
Eren fell silent, his original playful expression finally getting serious.
"Although the eldest brother didn't have much contact with me, I was his younger brother after all...... And I don't have any threat to my eldest brother, why should he?"
The king didn't follow his words, but snorted coldly, "The boss is also well-informed, as soon as your third brother called a witness, he appeared, saying that your third brother framed him, and also showed evidence that the third brother framed him." The king gritted his teeth and his eyes flashed with irrepressible rage, like an enraged lion.
"These two bastards are still acting in front of me, I can't get used to them squeezing each other and ridiculing each other, such a thing happened and didn't care about your brother, and they were still fighting there. ”
