Chapter 109: The Murmur of the Shadows

Kaye pushed the door open.

"You don't like her?"

Mina held her forehead with her hands on her forehead and kneaded vigorously with her eyes closed.

"Is it so obvious that I look like a weird mother-in-law who is jealous of a little girl?"

Kaye ripped the jelly off her body, shrunk and squeezed into a chair with Mina.

"My girl, how much older are you than that girl? a year old or two, such a vicissitudes of tone will obscure your youth. ”

"Ha!" the girl laughed mockingly, "I only have youth if I look good and have money, and I only have a childhood, a swarthy childhood in the slums." Mina puffed up the jelly and flattened it. "'I'm going to be engaged to a rich ugly ghost,' she exaggerated, "I'm worried about my next meal of bread at this age." ”

Unsure of what went wrong, Kaye tentatively said, "Then I'll send that girl home." ”

"I didn't say I wanted to get rid of her, she was excellent in appearance, full marks for logic, perfect marks for imitation, average in abstract thinking, and her memory ability was not bad, O young lady of the aristocratic family, the commoner children I selected, one was worse than the other, and I couldn't even understand what 'abstract' was. ”

Kaye captures the key word - nobility. The list of apprentices was secretly requested by Kaye from the Prime Minister, and they were all the children of Essin's inconspicuous commoners and nobles. If it was before, the various forces would be crazy when they noticed that the strings of life were recruiting students, but now everyone's eyes are focused on the assessment of adults, so that Kaye can select apprentices in a low-key manner.

Among them, Mina demanded an increase in the proportion of civilians, but now it seems that these children are not satisfactory.

"There was a great gap between the educational program of the commoners and the nobility and the level of intellectual development, and the situation in Esin was already the best. Kaye said bluntly.

Mina said helplessly, "I don't trust people who are born with a silver spoon in their mouths, high up. Ungrateful and estranged from others, you don't want to be full of factions during the apprenticeship. ”

Kaye put his hands on his knees and said earnestly: "The teacher said that it is human nature to exclude the opposite, and that estrangement and faction will not disappear because of common origin, and without commoners and nobles, men and women will be different, those with good talents and those with poor talents will be different, and those with long school age and those with short school age will be different. Struggle to coexist, this is human beings. As for the nobility. You think too much, it's a thing of the past to look at people's eyes and beg for life, and your will and I can decide their fate. ”

The girl's dark eyes stared at the boy up and down, "You also accuse others of the vicissitudes of life, and you speak in a tone like an old man with a beard dragging to the ground." ”

"So?" the slime hung his chin and turned into a large beard.

Mina giggled and slapped him. "Go and get busy with you, don't bother me. ”

"See you at dinner. ”

The cold moonlight could not hide the warm atmosphere, and the hall on the second floor of the strings of life was limited. But it's full. In the highest row of seats, Asherwall sat side by side with Kaye, followed by the Prime Minister and the Grand Knight Chief, as well as the various ministers. Although the guests are no more than fifty, if a meteorite falls. Funerals are held throughout all the territories of Essin.

At the long table in the second row were today's stars, a total of ten people. Three heroic young knights, from the Knights' Order, three humble and courteous lords. From a vassal of the royal family, there is a marquis with a big belly, a female painter with a graceful demeanor. An old scholar who is over half a hundred years old, and an active general with a grim face.

Different people wore the same garments, loose and intricate robes, and their arms were embroidered with golden strings.

This was a joyful distribution of guests and hosts, and the strings of life were truly supported by the royal family and the Knight Clan, and they also gathered a number of other forces. In turn, they knocked on the door of the arcane law, adding to themselves and the forces behind them.

There are no servants here, and simple dishes fly over the heads of the guests and land in front of them. Kaye doesn't have the ability to solidify the Mage's Mansion, but it's more than enough to summon some invisible minions. People have no intention of eating, and they talk to each other in low voices, but one by one they are elated.

At this moment the side door opened, and the guests commented that a dark, thin girl entered with a group of children, dressed in small silver robes with no lines on their sleeves. One by one, they were cramped and uneasy, standing aside and waiting. Only the leading girl sat directly next to the Aston Scholar, causing a discussion.

Prime Minister Carlton glanced at it early, "20 apprentices, congratulations, Master Night Phosphorus, but isn't it too little?"

"No matter how much you can't afford it, this batch will do this first, and when they grow up enough to take on it, there will be the next batch. Here's the list. Kaye handed him a piece of paper.

"Well...... They are all innocent children, and there are no descendants of great nobles and giant merchants, so it seems that they are your real heirs. ”

"Thanks to the Prime Minister's idea, I can choose my apprentices quietly. Kaye nodded.

Carlton stroked his mustache, "Their families will do everything I can to move to Plzeň and settle near the Strings of Destiny." ”

"Are you having trouble?"

"No, the commoners are simple, and the little nobles would love to live in the capital. ”

"It's best to avoid the apprentice's family falling into the hands of someone who cares. Kaye said that he did not point out that these people fell into the prime minister's field of vision in disguise, and that smart people know how to measure and gain and lose, after all, they have to develop in Essin.

Kaye tapped the glass with a golden spoon, and the conversation stopped.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today is a special day. Let me start with an introduction. The strings of longitudinal life are divided into three parts, the upper Dharma department, the inner Dharma department, and the outer Dharma department. Aston Martin Scholar, who is the Chairman of the Upper Law Division, is responsible for teaching the ten new Masters, and Mina, who is the Chair of the Outer Law Division, is responsible for all apprentices. ”

Aston looked bloodshot and on the verge of passing out, but Mina calmly met her gaze, nothing compared to the Shadow Dragon under Razor City.

"There are no servants at the Strings of Life, but the ten are assisted by two apprentices each, who are your assistants and companions on your journey. He turned to the apprentice and gave the children a thrill. "And apprentices, if they work hard enough, have the opportunity to advance to the Ministry of Internal Law. ”

Some people found out that the Inner Law Department that Master Night Phosphorus had brought over was personally in charge, and before they could ponder the mystery, Kaye began to tell the identity of the students of the Upper Law Department.

"Each student of the Upper Law Department will pay 10,000 gold coins to enter the school and will undergo a one-year teaching. I promise you will be able to step through the doors of magic, but how far you can go depends on your talent, hard work, and contribution. ”

The last word makes everyone pay extra attention and listen with their ears pricked up.

"We will distribute teaching materials to students in the Upper Dharma Department, and some of the basic ones are allowed to be taken away. ”

To put it mildly, it caused an uproar. This means opening up magical education, even if it's just the basics. But the meaning is important, and the family or force that gets the teaching materials can cultivate better assessment preparers, and they have more opportunities to join the strings of life. Thinking of allowing more juniors to become longitudinal masters, the students were excited one by one. Money, power, will pass with time, and only inheritance can create a thousand-year-old family.

"But the textbook is not free, 500,000 gold coins per copy!"

The next wave of uproar spread, and everyone thought that Master Night Phosphorus would do everything to collect money.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this money is not for the exclusive use of the strings of life, but for the purpose of building a common organization, belonging to Esien, to the organization of the Arfa. Magic is a complex subject, and it is only by helping each other to flourish. A portion of the funds will be used to develop supplies, purchase spell materials, and build second, third, or even hundredth mage towers in the future. Strings of Life is the leader and part of the organization, and we will welcome more like-minded friends to join. ”

"The strings of life can make Saraph notice, and the united alliance can make Saraph tremble! It's time for Essien to make his voice heard, Garlanod can't be preoccupied, and the scarlet Federation's prophet is to be stunned. The contempt of the alliance is the president, and His Majesty Asherwall is the vice president. In order to let the world see the shining future of Essien, I will name it - the Golden Alliance!"

The Emperor stood up at the right time to raise his glass and shouted: "Let us toast to the birth of the French Alliance, and may Essien and the French Alliance live forever like gold!"

"Esien lives on!"

At the same moment, whispers came from the deep darkness of the south.

Shadow ......

Shadow ......

"Respect the Shadow !!"

"Seize the gems of the inferior races under the light!

The second year and seven months of the Descent of Lesatos is considered to be the new era of the Salaphim, as on this day, the Golden Alliance was founded at the same time as the Cult of the Shadow God. (To be continued......)
