Early the next morning.

Before dawn, Anthony took the initiative to find Ronald and the two on the rooftop.

Although the operation was not dangerous, there was a lot to be done, and it was bound to face trouble.

Instead of rushing around, it's better to leave earlier than scheduled.

It's better to do that than to make a mistake in the middle of the rush.

The three of them jumped off the rooftop and left the hotel, and without calling a carriage, they walked to the target location.

As a friend of the spellcaster Frank, Anthony was familiar with the city's topography.

Even as he moved through the darkness, he didn't waste too long, and before the first rays of dawn appeared, he led Ronald and the others to a manor.

This building is worthy of the identity of these spellcasters.

The expansive courtyard guards the luxurious villa at the rear, both the gardening details and the building itself are impeccable, and the excellent aesthetics in various details reflect the elegant taste of the owner.

Anthony came to the main entrance without knocking.

When the night watchman of the manor saw him, he opened the door and let him go, pulling a cotton rope from the porter.

Ronald is extremely hearing, so when he saw the night watchman's movements, he heard the sound of a bell ringing in the building behind him.

This method of notification is simple in structure.

But it's better than asking someone to run over and deliver the message.

So just as the three of them were halfway through the courtyard and about to bypass the fountain in the center, several figures appeared at the entrance of the building.

An old man was followed by four or five young men.

This should be Frank and his students or relatives.

In the dim light of the sky, Anthony and the other party's eyes met, and the old man immediately rushed with vigorous steps, completely unable to see the effects of aging.

"Anthony, I'm so glad I heard from you last night!"

Anthony and the other party hugged lightly, squeezing out a playful smile on their faces:

"I thought I was at the wrong time, but now it seems that maybe you won't mind me bothering me."

Without hesitation, Frank exclaimed:

"How is that possible? This is when I need you the most! ”

Immediately afterward, the owner of the estate invited Anthony into the home, during which he also inquired about the identities of Ronald and Costadt.

At this point, Anthony has a strong sense of secrecy.

He introduced these as his two apprentices exactly as previously choreographed, and said nothing about Ronald's true origins.

Ronald also acted as a modest apprentice and did not arouse anyone's suspicions.

The group walked into the building and sat down in the hall.

The two elderly spellcasters exchanged a few polite words at the end, and the atmosphere between them suddenly changed, and their expressions became serious.

"Anthony, you came to me a little suddenly." First of all, Frank opened his mouth and raised the question in his heart, "Even I just received the news of the academic search yesterday, but you old guy came with you." ”

"With all due respect, the timing of your appearance is a bit of a coincidence."

Anthony replied immediately, with no wavering in his tone:

"I'm a little suspicious, but you know, I'm the most determined of us!"

Frank didn't mean to bypass the topic at all, but looked directly into Anthony's eyes like a torch:

"The old guy who used to be the most determined is already a member of my 'friendly' visit tomorrow!"

“……”

The voice landed, and the conversation stopped.

Anthony and Frank didn't say a word, and they just looked at each other in the hall.

Under the influence of these two elders, the young people behind Frank even held their breath and did not dare to make any movement.

But Ronald and Kostadt were a little helpless.

They didn't feel anything, but in order to maintain their disguised identity, they had to hold their breath throughout.

At the same time, time in the hall seemed to freeze.

It wasn't until someone broke out in a cold sweat that Anthony suddenly relaxed his tense body and leaned back on the back of the chair.

"Okay, okay, can I just say it's not okay?"

"I actually have something to look for you this time, but I just happened to have a problem with you."

Although it was the other party who relented first, Frank, who was sitting opposite, also breathed a sigh of relief.

He took the initiative to pour Anthony a cup of tea, and then returned to his previous appearance of welcoming each other, and at the same time looked at Ronald and Costadt in the back:

"As far as I know, aren't you looking for a good successor?"

"Now it seems that you have achieved good results, are you here today just for them?"

Anthony nodded first, then shook his head:

"Relevant, but not relevant."

"Before you explain your intentions, you'd better let these young people go and the two of us talk alone."

Hearing this request, Frank's eyes were a little strange.

Then he gave him an inquiring look, and got an affirmative look at Anthony.

Only then did he speak:

"In that case, go out first."

"Anthony and I are here to talk alone, and we are not allowed to come in without permission."

The young people around him left immediately, and Ronald and the two didn't want to be too conspicuous, so they also went out.

"Take good care of your guests, don't be rude!"

Smack-

At the sound of the command, the door shut.

The young people on the manor's side were obviously relieved, and the leading spell caster took the initiative and immediately issued a request to Ronald:

"Sir, let's go to the restaurant first."

"It's still early, and you must not have had breakfast yet, so you might as well settle it here."

Ronald naturally agreed: "Thank you for the invitation. ”

The group left the hall and went to the dining room, also on the first floor, where they enjoyed breakfast under the care of the servants, and seemed to be enjoying themselves.

Of course, this is all superficial.

During this process, Ronald kept an eye on the movement in the hall, and his hearing was good enough to detect the conversation taking place there.

What to say -

In the conversation with Frank, Anthony gave a very bold reason.

He made it clear that he was not willing to be oppressed anymore and was ready to take a stand with a heroic attack. This time, Frank's side is for the relevant matters of preliminary preparation.

"Frank, among us, the closest man to the capital."

"I've thought about it, and only you have the news that can work, you must help me this time!"

Frank immediately refused:

"You're too impulsive!"

"A spellcaster like you shouldn't be sacrificed for such a reason. Believe me, the current repression is just the darkness before the dawn, you shouldn't give up here, think about your school heritage, do you want it to end here! ”

"On that note, I already have the best heir." Anthony's voice sounded decided, so he didn't listen to the other party's dissuasion at all, "And Frank, don't forget, you'll still have visitors here in a few hours, and you'll need me." ”

“……”

Frank was silent for a while.

Finally, he responded in a low tone:

"Well, I promise you."
