Chapter 7 Descending the Stone
The servant hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's Master Sisda." ”
Mage Sisda?
Alan has not been in Yanjing for a long time, and he doesn't go out often, except for those very powerful big people, he hardly knows a few people.
The attendant looked at Alan with trepidation as he said Sistar's name, but Eren did not react to it. Alan just gave him a gentle push to the side, and strode into the living room.
In the living room, Hakim was glaring at several mages with a red face. Alan took a closer look and found that those mages were all of the sixth or seventh order. The mage of the sixth and seventh order is already quite powerful, and if he is placed in a small place, he can become a hegemon, and if he is placed in Pompeii, he is also a very powerful character.
Hakim looked at a red-robed mage angrily and shouted angrily: "Sisda, we have cooperated well in the past few years, have I ever given you a gold coin? Have I ever delayed paying the money for a day? Even if the family business is bleak, I can accept as many magic products as you make every month as agreed with you." Today, you take everyone to say that you will not sell us anything in the future, this is your explanation to your old friend?"
The red-robed mage is younger than Hakim, and the five officials are upright, giving people a sense of righteousness. This is a seventh-order mage, and his strength is similar to that of Hakim.
"Hakim, I'm also embarrassed about this......"
"Sorry fart! Why don't you just sell things to me as usual? Not only did you stop selling, but you also encouraged so many people to come over...... What did you want to force me to do? When you were poor, who recommended you to study with Master Cinderna? You treated your benefactor like this? I really didn't expect you to be such a person! How much money did the bastard of Ikael give you? You actually stabbed your benefactor at this time! Did your conscience be eaten by a dog!" Hakim shouted angrily.
Sisda was poor in the early years, and it was Hakim who recommended him to the ** teacher Cinderna, and Sisda finally achieved something. Hakim hadn't mentioned this for so many years, just because he didn't want Sisda to think that he was trying to repay him. Now that the Lionheart family's magic shop is in crisis, and Sisda is still stabbing in the back at this time, Hakim is finally furious and tells the story at this time.
Sistar's face turned red......
When he was poor in his early years, Hakim recommended him to Cinderna, and he was always grateful to Hakim, and he sold any magic items he made to Hakim. But when he gradually made achievements, even surpassed Hakim, he felt that Hakim was nothing more than that. Hakim used to help him, but he felt that it was a stain on his own life. He had been avoiding the past, including the fact that he had been sent to live in Hakim's house when he was poor, and that Hakim had taken him to apprentice with Master Cinderna. Now that Hakim had told him what had happened decades ago, his face was hot.
"Hakim, I am very grateful for your help back then, and for so many years, I have been selling magic items to you at low prices, which can be regarded as a gratitude. What do you mean by talking about this? Ikael didn't look for me, and no one gave me any money. You have offended the Doji Star Alliance this time, you really don't know the depths...... As an old friend for many years, I'm here to kindly say to you, you should still ask Alan and the Doji Alliance to apologize. ”
"Sisda, you stab me now, you will have no food to eat in the future, you will have no place to live, see who is willing to take you in, see who is willing to divide a bowl of rice into two portions and divide it for you!" Hakim roared angrily, his eyes red. He had always been a good friend of Sistar, but Sista stabbed him in the back, which hit him very hard.
Sisda only paused, and waved to lead the person away.
Alan watched from the side for a while, and finally understood what was going on.
The Lionhearts have recently been suppressed by the Doji Alliance, which has opened stores near the Lionhearts family's storefronts, selling things at low prices, and wants to steal the Lionhearts family's customers. Then the Doji Alliance bought off the Lionheart family's partners, so that those mages who were good at alchemy would no longer sell things to the Lionheart family. Today, this fire mage called Sisda is bringing people to talk about this.
Sisda was once helped by Hakim when he was at his most depressed, and Hakim gave him a share of everything and took him to seek a teacher, and he actually brought someone to stab him in the back at such a time......
Seeing Sistana's 'I'm for your good' expression after stabbing someone, Alan held his breath in his heart.
Alan endured his anger and came to the hall quietly.
"Alan, you're here. Hakim finally saw him.
"Hmm...... This is Master Sisda?"
"You're Alan? I've been friends with Hakim for years, and I'm your elder. I'm here to say a word to you, go to the Doji League and apologize, or the Lionheart family's magic shop will be ruined because of you. You are young and vigorous and make mistakes, as long as you know that you can change your mistakes, you can still be forgiven, but if you hold on because of face, it will only affect your family. ”
Alan held his breath when he heard it, but he still said lightly: "I'll think about it." ”
Seeing that he was so 'teachable', Sisda nodded with satisfaction.
Sisda stood up and was about to leave, when Alan suddenly said, "Does the Doji Alliance give you 200,000 yuan?"
"There are 250,000 ......," Sista said, and suddenly froze.
"Fuck you! 250,000 will come and stab you in the back, ** and the face is so righteous and awe-inspiring!"
Alan finally couldn't help but explode. He flew up and kicked Sisda in the chest, kicking Sisda sideways and knocking over several stools.
The mage armor on Sisda's body protected him from much damage, but being kicked in front of a junior by Eren made his body tremble. He stood up in embarrassment, raised his staff and was about to cast a spell on Alan......
Alan approached him, pointed to his heart, and said, "Come on, cast magic in here!
Sisda suddenly thought of Allen's identity, the second son of Raymond, Grand Duke the Lionheart......
The Lionheart family has tens of thousands of soldiers, and there are many strong people, and Raymond, the head of the Lionheart family, is one of the three berserkers of the Holy Ao Empire, giving Sisda a hundred dares, and he doesn't dare to do anything to Raymond's son Alan. He stood up silently and walked over to Alan with his head down.
Alan kicked him hard from behind, causing him to stagger a few steps and fall.
"The old miscellaneous who bullies the soft and is afraid of the hard, look at my ...... today"
"Forget it, Alan, let him go. Hakim spoke in the back and stopped.
Alan's movements came to an abrupt halt. He had wanted to cripple Sisda, but Hakim had spoken, and he couldn't do it again.
Sisda and his party left silently, and no one dared to say anything more.
When the group left, Hakim suddenly looked up and laughed, tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.
"Grandpa Hakim ......"
"I'm fine, forget it, today I recognized the true face of Sisda, it's nothing...... I'm tired, I'm going to take a break......" Hakim was stabbed by a friend, and his heart was extremely uncomfortable. He didn't want Alan to see his vulnerable side, so he forced his composure and left the hall.
Alan was standing in the hall, his face looking very grim.
"The wretchs of the Cross Star Alliance, is it Ikael? actually playing this hand! And Sisda, it's not a thing!Damn, when my Shika-Snake Pill makes a name for itself, I'm going to destroy them all, and they will never be able to turn over......," Alan swore in his heart.
However, he has his own problems. The deer snake pill is indeed a good thing, but the pharmacy of this world is too weak, and even people don't believe in the effect of the pill. It's not an easy task to get people to accept Shika-Snake Pill.
Allen's fierce appearance just now was so terrible that he found a stool to sit down, and no one dared to disturb him. It wasn't until it was almost noon that a subordinate came over with a post.
"What's the matter?"
"Second young master, tomorrow night is the eighteen-year-old birth of Princess Sofina. She's going to hold a birthday banquet and wants to invite you to it, and this is an invitation. The servant handed the invitation to Allen.
"What about my eldest brother? Princess Sofina didn't invite him?"
"Invited, too. There are two invitations in total, and the eldest young master is working in the soldiers' union, and someone has already taken his invitation to him. The servant said.
Alan said 'oh' and put away the invitation.
He had little interest in this kind of banquet, and he was not familiar with Sofina......
He was about to find an excuse to refuse, when suddenly his eyes lit up and he thought of something......
The next day, in the evening, the lawn behind the Imperial Hotel.
There are more than a dozen barbecue grills on the lawn. Beef, lamb, grilled sausages and other delicacies are skewered in baskets on the side of the table for the young people to eat. There are also many unopened bottles of famous wine on the table, as well as a lot of fruits and vegetables.
It was a party for young people, and Sofina invited many young people from the family, as well as some of the more famous young adventurers, but she didn't invite the older ones.
At a glance, the scene was full of young people, and occasionally there were a few older ones, either the young master's servants or the young lady's guards.
According to their own social circles, people gathered into small circles, and the circle where Sofina belonged had the most people, with twenty or thirty people. Occasionally, people gathered next to her would come to Sofina's circle to have fun, get some barbecue sauce, or interject to talk, trying to make an impression on Sofina in various ways.
Sofina is the ninth princess of Emperor Shengao, she is not only extremely beautiful, but also has a good surname, and Emperor Shengao also dotes on her, and even gave her the Imperial Hotel with an annual profit of hundreds of thousands of gold coins. If I can marry Sofina, I will be able to fight for at least 30 years. Even just making friends with Sofina has no small benefits. That's why people are always around Sofina. Even those who don't have plans for Sofina will like Sofina because of her good surname.
When Eren arrived, a young knight was in the crowd talking about his experience of going out to trial. A group of boys and girls listened with great interest......
Alan didn't feel anything when he saw that everyone wasn't paying attention to him. After he found a random stool and sat down, he took a skewered sausage and put it on the stove.
Sofina over there suddenly noticed that Alan was coming, so she waved at him from afar and shouted, "Alan, come here!"
"Hmm......" Allen paused, picked up the sausage, and got up and walked that way.
Before he could get to Sofina's group, a man suddenly approached him and touched Alan's hand with his elbow.
Alan stopped, he felt that the person in front of him was a little familiar, and after thinking about it, he remembered that this person was Tony of the Maffet family.
"Where's your brother?" said Tony.
"I came separately from him. ”
"That's right...... By the way, you've brought a present, haven't you?" said Tony.
Alan nodded, not understanding why Tony was asking this.
"What kind of gift?can't sell junk magic artifact?haha......" Tony laughed twice and passed Alan.
Allen's fists couldn't help but clench!
