Chapter Eighty-Eight: Banquet & Secret Discussion (3)

Seeing Adams sitting silently in his place, Vivien knew that her words had achieved the desired effect, and now Adams would definitely not have the idea of marriage in his heart, because if Ryan really wanted to use this means to get some kind of support, wouldn't it be a better choice for Vivian? Even as Ryan's magician, maybe he could find a stronger family in Mochizuki City, the Imperial Capital and other big cities as his own support.

Of course, from her own selfish point of view, Vivien naturally didn't want Adela to be able to ascend to the sky by Lane's side, she knew that if Lane wanted to unify the entire Cassano Plain in a short period of time, she would have to try her best to gather the power of the other two families, otherwise even if she finally occupied the territory of the other two families by killing them, it would be a thing that outweighed the loss.

So for Adela's treatment, Vivian has long had her own bottom line, she can become Ryan's lover and servant, but she must not have an official identity, so Adela like Vivian believes that Ryan is the main and becomes a magician's entourage should be the best choice.

After seeing that her potential threat was gone, Vivien wanted to give Adams a little confidence, lest the potential ally be discouraged and do something against her side, so Vivien raised her glass and said to Adams, "Please, this is a Bordeaux wine from the imperial capital." ”

Adams wasn't in the mood to drink at all, but out of courtesy he couldn't refuse on the spot, so he was summarily picked up and drank. Vivien waited until Adams put down his glass before she continued, "It's a good wine, isn't it?, but my master never drinks it, because he prefers water. In fact, my master was a very nostalgic man, and his only belief in life was to protect his family and friends. ”

When Adams heard Vivian's words, his eyebrows suddenly raised, and he was keenly aware of what Vivian seemed to be hinting at, so Adams gathered his will and listened carefully to every word Vivian said: "My master will never abandon his comrades or companions, so you don't need to worry about anything." Perhaps in your opinion, the existence of delicious Bordeaux is definitely beyond the existence of clear water, but in my master's heart, only pure and tasteless clear water is his only choice. ”

"If my host gave up his hobby because you liked Bordeaux to accommodate you, then maybe tomorrow when another friend comes to visit, my host will throw the wine aside because he likes dwarven ales?" You may say that man is always succumbing to the greater power of choice, and what if the new guest forces my master to change his hobbies? ”

"It's better to say than to do well, Vivien. Ryan interjected, "There's no need to go on and on, let's let Mr. Adams see with his own eyes, hear with his own ears, and feel what we're doing with his own heart." ”

"As you wish, my lord. Vivien bowed slightly, and then said to Adams, "Your Excellency Lord Adams, I now solemnly invite you to visit the newborn Iron Fist Castle, and I will be your guide to give you a brief afternoon of what my master and I have done during this time. When it's time for dinner, I think you'll have another decision that will satisfy both of you?"

Adams naturally readily agreed, he knew that Vivian was not without ambition for his Saranal family, otherwise he could be placed under house arrest in the first place, which was also the biggest bargaining chip he chose to personally go to Iron Fist Castle. It's just that listening to Vivian's tone, it seems that the other party has other options, which also makes Adams very curious.

Adams knew that the army of the Emilio family was the strongest in the entire Cassano Plain, but that army had been completely wiped out, otherwise how could the Seremis family dare to swagger and attack their own Saranal family, because it would take more than half a year to deal with the Iron Fist Castle if it wanted to retrain an army, and it was almost impossible to completely restore the strength of this army to the previous level without a year or two of running-in and actual combat tempering.

This is long enough time for the Seremis family to annex the Saranal family, and it is very difficult for the Seremis family to lose if they want to lose with veterans honed in the war to attack the new recruits who have just formed the army. It's really sad to say that the Emilio family, which has lost the most strength, is safe and sound, while the Saranal family, which has only lost 800 elites, has to face annihilation.

Adams had already learned about Ryan's identity as a magician from the information he had obtained in advance, and he more or less knew that the destruction of his daughter Adela was also the credit of this magician, but he never expected that Ryan would have a huge impact on him, and when Vivian took Adams to follow Ryan to the civilian area at the foot of Iron Fist Castle Mountain in the afternoon, Adams's brain stopped working on the spot.

As a family lord with more than 100,000 people, Adams is of course well-informed, but the moment he figured out what Ryan was doing, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, he finally understood what Vivien's reliance was, and how ridiculous his previous idea was: even if he fell to the Seremis family, Ryan and Vivian could still rely on their own strength to wipe out the two families from this continent, and the reason why they didn't do this was nothing more than not wanting their future territory to be deserted, after all, fighting is to die, although all the people who died were the other party's people, but they were also their future people。

While Adams was dumbfounded, Ryan stood on a makeshift platform and loudly explained the principles of magic to the thousands of people gathered around the audience who were eager to learn magic: "Yesterday I briefly described the classification of magic, so today I will teach you how to meditate, and what are the precautions for meditation. ”

"Meditation is the process of concentrating on the power of magic. In the beginning, it should be a good idea to choose meditation, but once you have reached a certain level of strength, it doesn't matter the time, place, or posture. ”

"You see, this is the arcane energy, the purest and most primordial power of the mage. We slowly accumulate it through meditation and store it in our bodies. Ryan held out his right hand to show the purple ball floating in the palm of his hand the size of an adult man's fist. Of course, none of the people present knew that in fact, the power that Ryan was showing now was basically beyond the level of a junior magician, and if Ryan used these powers to release elemental magic, such as fireball magic, it would be enough to slaughter thousands of people in front of him.
