Chapter 022: Decision under Proposal

When the word "for medicine" popped out of Caesar's mouth, Alva's eyes instantly burst into a dazzling light. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Where did you get the news?"

The light was fleeting, and Caesar could not see any emotion on his face, this man had the ability to hide everything in his heart.

Caesar shook his head:

"I can't tell you that. ”

Alva nodded, the result didn't mean anything to him.

"Then you tell me, you and I are not related, and today is also the first time we meet, why should I give you such a precious elixir?"

The two looked at each other, and the air seemed to be filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke that was difficult to see with the naked eye.

"What elixir?"

At this time, Nicole's voice full of doubts suddenly sounded, and the fresh wind blew away the thick smell of gunpowder a little.

"This kid doesn't know where to get the news, he knows that I just got an elixir here that is very beneficial to the magic circuit. ”

"Really?"

Nicole felt an inexplicable joy in her heart, and she couldn't hold back a little, so excited that she even spoke a few degrees higher than usual.

Alva was stunned for a moment, and then looked at his daughter with suspicious eyes:

"Why are you so excited?"

Only then did Nicole realize that she was indeed acting a little abnormal, and forcibly suppressed the turbulence in her heart, she pretended to be calm and said:

"Father, since you have found such a treasure, what are you going to do with it?"

Alva thought for a moment and said:

"Keep it good first, if one day there is a junior in the family who is not very talented, use it to strengthen the magic circuit for him, so that he will not be too miserable. ”

Naturally, he said this not only to his daughter, but also to show Caesar his attitude: this elixir belongs to our Flamel family, and naturally it will be used on the descendants of our Flamel family.

Caesar knew in his heart that this time it would not be easy to ask for medicine, but he didn't expect this Demon Dao Regiment leader to speak so decisively.

At this time, he was a little silent.

Nicole looked at the silent Caesar, feeling a little anxious, and in her heart she also hoped that Caesar could heal the damage to the magic circuit, although she herself didn't know why she was so longing.

She forced herself to explain that if he could heal the magic circuit, he would be a good opponent.

"Your name is Caesar, isn't it?"

At this time, Doris, who had not interjected, said suddenly.

She got up from the couch, put down the book in her hand, and walked to Alva's side with lotus steps.

"Yes. ”

Caesar knew that Doris was that person's favorite and most respected family member, and respect naturally rose in his heart. He bowed slightly to the beautiful woman, and Doris smiled and nodded.

"Caesar, since you are also a student of the Royal Academy of Magic now, would you like to go to the academy as Nicole's companion?"

"Mother!"

Nicole was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then immediately disagreed:

"I've said it all, I don't need any accompaniment. ”

But in the bottom of her heart, there was a trace of shame and faint expectation. She secretly watched Caesar's reaction, only to see him frowning and lost in thought.

The young man, who had stood not far from Caesar, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly raised his head when he heard this, and his eyes burst into disbelief and dissatisfaction.

Alva frowned similarly, and he looked at Caesar, and then at the unruly young man. He didn't know why his wife made such a suggestion, but unlike other princes and nobles, he always respected her opinion, and he was well aware of his wife's wisdom.

Doris looked at Alva and said softly:

"If Caesar is willing to be Nicole's companion, then he is half of the Flamel family, and it makes sense to use an elixir on a promising family member anyway. Moreover, this little brother Caesar has the pinnacle of human beings - the eighth elemental affinity. As far as I know, almost all of the eighth-rank elemental affinity owners in the record have become Saint-rank powerhouses. If this elixir can really cure him, his future will be limitless, and it is likely to be the next Holy Order. In exchange for a stable friendship with a saint-level powerhouse, no matter how you think about it, you will make a sure profit. ”

Doris couldn't fault anything with her words, and even Alva couldn't refute it. He looked at the two young men in front of him and said:

"Madame is indeed right, but it is not a low requirement to be Nicole's accompaniment. Although the little girl herself said that she didn't need someone to accompany her, but in this trend, sometimes people can't help themselves. Accompanying her is not just about going to and from school with her. In Virgina, there are countless powerful people, and with power and status there will be comparisons and disputes, even among the younger generation. As the heir of the family, it is impossible for Nicole to use force with others at will, so a powerful retainer will be needed to make a move, and in the same way, disputes between children cannot be made by the elders of the family, so this is the time for the accompaniment to play a role. While protecting Nicole, he can not lose the face of the family and block all external challenges, which requires the companion to have the top strength among his peers. ”

Alvara paused, glanced at the young man beside Caesar who was surging with fighting spirit, and then continued:

"Just now, we have already selected Nicole's companion through the competition......"

Caesar knew that the man must be the young man who stood by his side and exuded hostility towards him all the time.

"But since Madame has proposed to add Caesar to the shortlist, it is for the sake of justice that the two of you might as well compete again, and the winner will be Nicole's companion. I wonder if you two agree or not?"

Alva looked at the two of them, and first set his eyes on the young man:

"Carlo, do you agree?"

The young man named Carlo nodded, and it was obvious that he was very confident in his strength.

"Have you thought about it, Caesar?"

Looking at Caesar, who was still bowing her head and silent, Nicole felt uneasy in her heart, and she immediately said:

"Father, it's not fair! Caesar had a gift, but he still had a damaged magic circuit. Senior Reiner had already said during the assessment a few days ago that due to the damaged magic circuit, he could not accumulate mana, and his true level was probably barely even reaching the magic apprenticeship. And Carlo has been very talented since he was a child, and now he is a mage of the Great Magician level like me, is it fair that you let a magic apprentice compete with a Great Magician?"

Alva's eyes were still unwavering, and he said in an extremely calm voice:

"No matter what height the two can reach in the future, no one will be merciful because of your talent, on the contrary, talent often causes more disputes, only the real strength of the moment is the last word that explains everything, the strong is the strong, and the loser will always be a loser before turning over. ”

This time, even Doris didn't refute again, just witnessed everything that was happening in front of her with a smile.

Caesar was not afraid of battle, and even if the conditions were unfair, he would do his best to win.

But he has always longed for freedom at this moment, he hesitated at this moment, and the loss again and again made him unwilling to establish contact with others, if he really became Nicole's companion, would he lose this relationship again?

He didn't know, he really didn't.

It's just that in his mind, there seems to be a familiar voice, repeating something over and over again. He listened carefully, and the words became clearer and clearer:

"Let's learn magic!

He wants to learn magic!

At this moment, Caesar's eyes regained firmness, and he still made a decision:

"If I could, I'd like to be Nicole's companion!"
