The three Mayne brothers looked at the materials carefully, while their father Julius put one hand on the table and kept tapping, and the three sons broke out in a cold sweat after exchanging all the materials with each other, and looked timidly at their father who seemed to be in deep thought, except for the heavy breathing of the three Mayne brothers, the only sound left in the entire study was the sound of Julius constantly tapping on the table.

After a long time, Julius stopped tapping on the table and said to his three sons, "Do you know what kind of opponent you are now?"

The three Mayne brothers didn't dare to speak, they had long been frightened by what was written on the information, although the information was written simply, it was enough to show how terrible Ryan and his companions were, and many details may have been mentioned in one go, but they all knew that on the desk in front of their father, there must be a detailed description in those thick piles of information, which was the intelligence collection system that their Elber family had spent a lot of money to build for hundreds of years, and it was the strong foundation of the family.

"Klaus, you idiot, you know that you can mess with flowers and grass, is that farath something you can provoke?" Julius scolded with a mentality of hating iron but not steel: "Her father is the Chancellor of the Exchequer of the entire Holy Alliance Empire, what kind of identity is that? Fernando XIII was assassinated, and the biggest winner of the whole ** is this Luke." Now that he holds the power of the Empire, that Catherine is just a puppet, and the commander of the Royal Knights, the most powerful legion on the mainland, is his son-in-law, do you think you can compare to Orlando?"

"Hmph, although that Bailey is still young and far inferior in strength to your eldest brother, his identity is above your eldest brother, and he used to embarrass Faras in public, just like the disgusting words you said the other day. And now? That Bailey's fate in the rebellion is unknown, and his father was killed for the rebellion. Hmph, the Minister of State of the Empire is already a very human minister, he can overthrow the little king with a little arrangement, does he need to make a big move?"

Klaus bowed his head deeply, he didn't dare to say a word, he finally understood how lucky he was now, he had always been arrogant, he still didn't restrain after he went to the imperial capital, he seemed to be majestic at that time, and now it seems that no one in the emperor cares about him. Klaus is also secretly glad that he has saved his life in Thor's Fortress, with Ryan's record of slaughtering nearly 10,000 orcs independently, I am afraid that a little strength will be enough to destroy himself.

"And you, Mayne!" Julius pointed to his eldest son and said, "It doesn't matter if you can't win the battle, our Elber family has never been the kind of aggressive family, the biggest characteristic of our family is that we can tolerate it, otherwise how could we be unknown on the continent for 200 years?

Maher's heart moved, he knew that Mochizuki City was managed by a six-person council, but almost no one knew the true identity of these six power holders, and now that his father said so, could he be one of the mysterious six people? But his family doesn't seem to be very famous in Mochizuki City, and many ancient family powers are above him, is there any hidden meaning in this?

"Hmph, you little bit of caution!" Julius pouted, and he saw through what was going on in his second son's head, and said unhurriedly, "Don't think about things that you shouldn't know." I have asked you to come to the study today just to warn you of one thing. The so-called power is not to go out with three or five hundred followers, take advantage of others in everything, or make a few moves to defeat the enemy, and enjoy the adoring gaze of others. ”

"True power is invisible, and those who hold this power are lonely. Throughout the ages, a person with supreme authority does not need to kill himself at all, he only needs a gesture and a look, and naturally someone will do it. The three of you have different personalities, but none of you are actually suitable for this path. ”

"Mayne, since you have a talent for magic, study hard, the family has a powerful magician with a transcendent status that can make others dare not touch our minds. Maher, you are straightforward and not good at strategy, and you are unlikely to inherit my throne, but you can master the power of your family and protect our people with your sword. And Klaus, you, hey, you are useless at all, I hope you can work hard, improve your strength, don't always pursue those ethereal majesty, you know, once the family is defeated, you will be like that Bailey, disappearing silently overnight. ”

"Well, you all remember to me that as a member of the Elber family, you must bear the corresponding responsibilities. Stop thinking about boring thoughts like seeking revenge on Ryan, do you want the family to build a powerful enemy for no reason? That Ryan has been instructed by the ** teacher Victor, and Faras is simply Victor's student. Even if I use all the power of my family to destroy them while their strength has not yet reached the peak, I am afraid that in less than three days, Victor's revenge will come. In many cases, those who have the power are the ones who make the rules, and they don't need evidence or reasons, because their will is the supreme rule of behavior. ”

"I see, father!" Mayne stood up sweating profusely and said loudly, "My teacher, Master Blair, once said that you can only grow by facing your own failures. I lost to Ryan, yes, I was very unwilling, I couldn't accept the truth for a while, but now, I figured it out, what's the point of that? As long as the family is still around, I'm still the genius magician at the top of the top ten magic rookies, and once the family is destroyed, I'll be left with nothing!"

"Very well, I'm glad you think so. Julius nodded and said, "Your teacher invited Ryan to be a guest in his magic tower, so you can go over tomorrow." Although the imperial capital is now greatly injured, it will take at most five years to recover its strength, and Lane They have a special identity, but in this strength to the south, it is obvious that they have a special mission. What we have to do is to take advantage of the weakness of the imperial capital to enhance our influence on the mainland as much as possible and get as close to the imperial capital as possible. But it should be noted that being close does not mean being annexed, we must maintain a transcendent position as much as possible, we can be allies of the imperial capital, but definitely not subordinates!"

Listening to the first mission of his life given to him by his father Julius, Mayne suddenly felt a lot of pressure on his shoulders, he had been immersed in the study of magic, and with his family's strength, he did not need to worry about survival. But now, Mayne is also going to do his best for the family, and he also has to face the opponent who defeated him and swept away his face in Mochizuki City, Mayne doesn't know if he can do a good job, but he knows that he must do a good job, as his father said, Ryan may have fought with him before for the sake of Shuwei, so after showing the strength of the imperial capital, wouldn't it be what he sent to make friends like this?
