Chapter 217: Frightened
readx;
After hearing Dades's words, the mages behind him were all stunned by their big eyes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Who is Dades? One of the supreme twelve-star mages of the Mage Association, and the most respected and loved figure under the relay president of the Mage Association, and now, he actually bowed his head, or did he bow his head to the two little girls?!
Thinking of this, these mages couldn't help but look at these two smiling girls curiously, they looked so young, and there was nothing strange about them, why did Master Dades give them such a big gift? and, if he heard it correctly, he called these two little girls "teacher".
And in the face of Dades, who bowed his head, the lovely and beautiful sisters did not speak immediately, on the contrary, they just held their hands and pressed them tightly to each other's bodies, and then they chuckled.
"It's Dieters. β
"Dade-san, huh?"
"You've gotten taller. β
"You're getting old, too?"
"It's been so many years. β
"It's the same as before. β
"After all, so many years have passed........."
Hearing the two of them's answers, Dades raised his head and showed a helpless smile.
"I am very happy to see both teachers again. It seems that I am really glad that I am in charge of leading the team, and now that Crean is the president of the association, I don't have this blessing. β
"Crean?"
"Little brother?"
Hearing the name, the eyes of the two girls narrowed slightly.
"He's the president of the association now. β
"As we expected. β
"Crean has worked hard since he was a child. β
"It's normal to do that. β
β.....................β
The scene in front of me, if you just listen to the conversation, is just an ordinary scene of students and teachers who have been reunited for a long time to get together and chat. But now, the two identities have been reversed a little, and the old, steady old mage is completely a student at the moment, so respectful in front of two girls who are only in their early tens. Moreover, the name mentioned in their mouths made all the mages stunned.
Divine grace is above, that is the leader of the mages of the whole continent, how can you listen to this tone, is he also a student of these two girls?
At this moment, some people already felt that the scene in front of them was beginning to be confused, and they had no idea what was going on, and although they wanted to ask, they couldn't interject at all. And Dades didn't seem to care about his subordinates and students at the moment, but began to answer the questions raised by the two girls slowly. Obviously, there seems to be some space between them that they can't intervene in, which makes these mages a little helpless.
"It seems that they will need a while. β
And at this moment, Yu Lian interjected at the right time to relieve these embarrassing mages. He smiled and nodded at the group, then spoke.
"It's better to be like this, you are guests from afar, and I don't have anything to entertain you here. If you don't like it, I can ask Charlotte to show you around the city of Valhalla. I don't know how. β
"This ......... Of course there is no problem, thank you very much for your hospitality, Mr. Yuren. β
Although these mages are very curious about their mentor's behavior, they are also reasonable people, and they know that they are in front of outsiders right now, and such a gaffe will naturally only discredit the mage association, so most of them have suppressed the doubts in their hearts, anyway, there will be time in the future, and at that time, it will not be too late to ask the mentor what is going on.
And Yulian's proposal also suited the appetite of these mages, they had seen many of those glorious and majestic big cities, but there were very few such ancient, mysterious and elegant as the City of Valhalla, and they wanted to take a closer look, but they were stopped by their own mentor. And now that they have such an opportunity, they will naturally not let it go.
"So, Charlotte. β
Seeing that the other party nodded in agreement, Yulian also smiled and saluted them back, and then turned to look at Charlotte.
"It's up to you, they're honored guests from the Mage Guild, and I think you should know how to deal with themβmaybe a little talking, after all, it's not a bad thing. β
"Yes, master. β
Charlotte, with the same sweet smile on her face as ever, saluted Yuren, and then, with light and graceful steps, she made a gesture of invitation.
"Then, everyone, please come with me. β
Looking at the distant backs of the mages, Yulian's eyes narrowed slightly, and then, he looked at Dades and the sisters on the side again, and then gently clapped his palms.
"Messiah, Semiya, if you want to catch up, there will be time in the future, now, how about we get down to business?"
"Okay, brother. β
"Of course, Dad. β
Hearing Yulian's words, the two sisters, who were originally listening to Dades with interest, immediately raised their hands and responded with a chuckle. At this time, Dades finally raised his head, looked at Yulian, and then smiled.
"So......... It is indeed time for us to discuss the details of what follows, Mr. Yuren. β
"That's right, in fact, there are some things I'd like to see the Mage's Guild help with. β
With that, Yuren turned around and walked towards the castle.
"Hopefully we can get an answer that will satisfy both sides. β
Just when Dades entered the castle under the leadership of Yulian and the others, he began to officially start negotiations on the issue at hand. The mages of the Mage Guild, led by Charlotte, also visited this beautiful city.
Frankly, as a new city, Valhalla really doesn't have anything special to offer. With the exception of the Twilight Castle, which serves as a meeting point for the "story", there are no historical monuments or any particularly distinctive commercial and trade centers. But Charlotte is a maid after all, not to mention that as the head maid of Yulian, the skill of reversing black and white is almost full of surnames, and although these mages have good strength, they are all guys who focus on their own cultivation and don't usually interact with people outside the association. It's like those high-achieving students in colleges and universities, although they think that they have gained the experience of social life in school, but until they enter the society, they will be surprised to find that what they have understood is only a fraction of the hair.
Because of this, Charlotte's introduction also made them listen to it with relish, and the head maid also understood the thoughts of these mages, so most of the time they let them enjoy themselves, and they only occasionally added a few sentences on the side.
I have to say that this kind of visit still makes the mages feel very comfortable and comfortable, they have not had such a relaxing rest for a long time. Right now, when there is such a time, they will naturally hurry up and enjoy it. However, it also gives them more time to discuss. After all, they have experienced a lot of surprises since they came here, and now, if they don't talk about these things again, then I'm afraid they will be suffocated.
"What do you think? Is Master Dades really a student of those two young ladies?"
"I think it's right to look at the Mentor, but ...... It's hard for me to believe it, after all, those two young ladies are just children. β
"Could it be an illusion?"
"It doesn't look like it, after all, illusions have magic fluctuations, but none of us feel them. β
"But......... If both the tutor and the guild leader were students of those two girls, how old were those two girls............
"It's rude to speculate on the age of a woman's surname without permission, right?"
"I know, but, no matter how you look at it, aren't they just two little kids?"
Along the way, the mages whispered and discussed while visiting the mysterious and elegant Gothic buildings in front of them.
"Could it be a fixed title? The two girls inherited the title?"
"No, it was obvious that they knew each other, and besides, the attitude of the two girls towards the tutor was very natural, not like a child deliberately pretending to be mature......... What do you think, Astraea?"
"Huh?"
Hearing her companion's inquiry, the girl, who had been silent, suddenly reacted, her eyes widened curiously, and she looked at her colleagues around her suspiciously.
"What? What are you talking about?"
"Hah......... You're in a daze again. β
Walking beside the girl, a young man who looked to be about twenty-three or four years old let out a long sigh and patted her on the head.
"What's wrong? Our little genius alchemist? What are you doing?"
"I wasn't in a daze. β
The girl shook her head, shook the man's hand away, and frowned. But soon, she looked ahead with a serious expression.
"I just think it's a little weird. β
"Strange?
Hearing the girl's words, several mages around her also suddenly looked at her, although this girl is not very old, but her potential is also outstanding among these elites, she is not only good at magic, but also good at alchemy skills, although there are many such mages in the association, but at the age of fifteen, at the same time in these two aspects of the high-level talent, is quite rare.
"Huh?"
Following the girl's line of sight, everyone soon noticed that she was staring at the beautiful girl in a black uniform walking at the front of the line.
"What's the matter? You think her dress is beautiful? It's really good, if those female mages in the Mage Guild wear it like that, then I think there will be more ...... in the division team."
"No, no, no. β
The girl shook her head desperately, rejecting the speculation, and then quietly reached out.
"Didn't you notice? Miss Charlotte, she ............."
Saying this, the girl took a deep breath, as if making a decision on her own judgment, before continuing to add.
"Her body was covered in magical objects from head to toe. β
"Huh?!"
Hearing this, those mages were even more surprised, and they hurriedly raised their heads and stared at the head maid in front of them in disbelief.
You know, magical items aren't accessible to everyone, although for the nobility, they'll also get magical artifacts that glow with magic or make people feel comfortable. But from an alchemical point of view, these are nothing more than "alchemical items". In other words, they only come with a very small amount of magical abilities, and there is nothing noteworthy about them.
And above this, the "alchemy creations", most of them have abilities similar to magic, but they also have a flaw, that is, the problem of use. Although these alchemical creations can release powers similar to magic, they are all surnamed once and thrown away when they are used up.
And the most advanced is the "magic item".
The so-called magic items are literally clear, they are magical items, they have the same power as magic, but unlike alchemical creations, magic items can supplement magic and be used back and forth. Unless it is damaged beyond the boundaries of use, it can be used non-stop. At this level, from those large constructs to small energy jewelry, they are all within the scope of magical creations.
Of course, such things are naturally very expensive and very rare. After all, magical creations have already involved the most profound techniques in the field of alchemy and the origin of magic. This is not an area that ordinary alchemists can involve.
And the girl, as a double genius, an alchemist who has been promoted to a high position, can naturally make some ordinary level magic items, and even so, after carefully observing Charlotte, she still can't help but feel dizzy.
"Her necklace is water-blue, and it should contain a protective spell inside. And her bracelet ...... Judging from the circle pattern above, it should be able to accommodate a small half-plane space. And her ring, if I'm not mistaken, it should be a high-level item with the ability to move and transfer attached. And the uniform that the young lady was wearing, did you notice, the golden trim on the edge of her uniform was faintly carved with runes, I thought, it must be some kind of enhancement magic. β
β............ Is it really as powerful as you say?"
Hearing the girl's affirmation, the mages couldn't help but widen their eyes in surprise, and began to carefully look at Charlotte walking in front of them.
"But why can't I feel any magical aura? If she has so many magical items, then the magical aura should be obvious, right? β
"Look at her earrings......... It was the Hidden Magic Array. β
"Holy grace is above. β
Hearing this, all the mages gasped in unison.
"This ......... How much does that cost?"
"I'm afraid I won't be able to get down without tens of millions of gold coins. β
"No, no, no, wait a minute, even in the Mage Association, there are not many people who can make such a thing as the Hidden Magic Array, if this kind of thing is made, it will be a sky-high price!"
"Is that young lady a mage?"
"I can't see it, I don't think it's like ........."
"Guys, what's the matter?"
Just as these mages were having a new round of discussion, Charlotte also noticed a stirring behind her, so she stopped, turned to these mages curiously, and asked. The mages looked at each other a few times, and then one of them nodded to her before asking politely and curiously.
"Excuse me...... Miss Charlotte, are all these magical items you have on you?"
Although, frankly, such a question is a bit impolite. But Charlotte doesn't have a noble status like Yulian after all, although she is a very beautiful beauty, but after all, she also knows the maid, and the head maid has always been smiling, showing a very easy to get along with and a good look, so these mages are no longer as restrained as they were at the beginning.
"These?"
Charlotte glanced at her jewelry with some curiosity, and then showed a sweet and charming smile.
"Of course, I think since you're mages, you should be aware of it, yes, these are magical items. Any questions, please?"
"Sure enough, it's all ......"
After Charlotte's confirmation, these mages were stunned again, you know, magic items are very expensive, and even they can't afford to buy such equipment. But now, a maid in front of me can still be equipped with her whole body, which is really a little hurtful.
"It's really terrifying, I didn't expect the Knights of the End to be so rich and equipped with so many magic props......"
"Rich?"
Hearing this, Charlotte tilted her head in confusion.
"Are you misunderstanding something? These are not purchased by the master, but made by meβafter all, it is not the way of a servant to ask the master to pay for such a small thing. β
"What did you say?!"
If before, the mages were only surprised, now they were completely shocked. They looked at each other, staring at each other with wide eyes, and couldn't say a word with their mouths wide open. Of course, the demeanor of the high-ranking elite of the Mage Guild was absent at this moment. In fact, until just now, they thought it was bought. After all, while the amount is certainly exaggerated, it's still a reasonable answer. But now, they got an answer beyond their imagination, you know, even in the Mage Guild, high-level alchemists who can create magical items are rare. Moreover, even if they were, it was rare for them to carry such a large number of magic items. And now, everything they saw and heard seemed to completely subvert the common sense of these elite students from the Mage Association.
It wasn't until a moment later that Astraya relented, blinking in surprise before looking at Charlotte. His eyes were filled with a mixed feeling, as if he was excited, as if he was excited.
"So, Miss Charlotte, are you a high-ranking alchemist?"
"Advanced?"
Charlotte still seemed confused by the girl's statement.
"For a qualified alchemist, making magical items should be a very ordinary and ordinary thing. β
Then the head maid made a statement that made everyone petrify in place.
