Chapter 9: Threats (2)
Du Kang sat up straight for a moment and continued, "My lord, actually...... I came to the imperial capital to try my luck. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"If you can become a magician and are willing to accept me, then I will go. If you can't, you should come to the imperial capital for a tour......"
“...... I didn't know about it, and I was locked up in the Ministry of Magic for two days. I thought I was doing something wrong...... After all, the Lucky Cube has been banned by the Empire for fifteen years...... I even wondered if it was because of the badge in that Rubik's cube that I was locked up here because of some law. Then I'll just give it to an adult. I guess I'm not an uninformed guy, and I won't make any big mistakes......"
Hearing this, a rare trace of regret appeared on the silver-haired man's calm face.
"Look, sir. You don't have to say the previous words at all, just ask me! I, a guy from a civilian background, will never refuse the request of a noble lord. Without thinking about it, I know that your title should be big. ”
The silver-haired man frowned.
"But now, the badge is mine. The Payne family and the Radiant Academy of Magic didn't turn me down either. I've changed my mind!"
There was a hint of stubbornness between Du Kang's eyebrows.
Originally, this badge was obtained for nothing.
The activities of fifteen years ago are not effective now. Du Kang was not sure, nor did he have too many extravagant expectations.
But now, the Payne family didn't show up, and the Radiant Academy of Magic didn't ask about it itself. You are a noble lord who burst out of nowhere. Despise me in and out of words, and keep saying that it is impossible for a bloodline, a lowly, and a commoner to become a magician......
At this time, let me give up the badge again......
If I still listen to you, it will be a real crime!
Du Kang was originally a stubborn person, you say no?
I'm just going to give it a try!
The silver-haired man regretted a little in his heart, but at the same time, he said with some anger: "Without magical talent and bloodline, even if you barely become a magician, you will only waste resources!"
Du Kang smiled and asked another question that the silver hair couldn't refute.
"My lord, if you are right, a person who has no magical talent cannot become a magician, and a person who has no bloodline cannot become a magician, then Master Fanner, who first invented magic, and the first group of magicians...... How did they become great magicians?"
Silence, deathly silence, Du Kang even saw some kind of storm in the eyes of the silver-haired man.
"You're brave and smart. I can guess something...... "After a long time, the silver-haired man regained the confidence that he had everything under control.
"So why do you deliberately say such angry words? Now take out that badge and destroy the sacred pact that was automatically concluded on it, then I will give you a good way out, money, beauty, and even a knighthood? You can have a fief of your own in Finland City. You don't even have to do anything to become a high-ranking noble lord and impress those fellow villagers who looked down on you in the past. ”
He said in a seductive tone, "You see, all you pay is to destroy something you shouldn't have gotten in the first place." And what you get is something that ordinary people can't imagine, and it's worth it, isn't it?"
Silverhair was confident that no commoner would be able to withstand the conditions offered by the Matthews family, the richest family in the empire, and he was very confident in it.
To his disappointment and even some anger, the young man stubbornly shook his head.
How did he know that the type of person Du Kang hated the most was actually a nobleman.
Since he hates it, where will he agree to Matthews's condition of becoming a nobleman?
The nobleman of the Matthews family had completely miscalculated.
"Aren't you afraid of death? You may not know that in the past fifteen years, there have been many civilians like you, who have been bewitched by certain forces to learn magic...... But without exception, they are either miserable or dead......"
The silver-haired man stared at Du Kang, "Died in some accident. ”
Du Kang was silent, the demagogy of certain forces refers to the Payne family and the Radiant Academy of Magic?
Matthews looked at him, obviously knowing that Dukang had heard the threat in his words.
It took a long time for Du Kang to re-speak from the silence.
"You also said that I am smart......" Du Kang himself couldn't help but laugh when he said this.
"If you want to kill me, or if you can kill me...... Didn't you kill me when you came in, and that you didn't kill me proves that you have some kind of concern, and of course, maybe you didn't have a knife. ”
This last sentence made the corners of the silver-haired man's eyes twitch a little, and he felt the urge to slap the boy to death with one palm. The palm of his hand pinched inside the sleeve again and again, but he gave up again.
Indeed, he could not do anything to this boy until the sacred covenant on that badge was broken.
It was a badge left by an opponent and a powerful magic device.
There is a very powerful curse magic on it, and whoever kills him, either indirectly or voluntarily, will be cursed before the contract is completed.
Only when Du Kang breaks this contract on his own, or completes this contract, will this magic disappear.
The silver-haired man stared at Du Kang tightly for a moment, until he saw that Du Kang was a little hairy, and then he suddenly smiled.
"You'll regret it, Ducom Warfitt, you have no idea what a terrible maeltrom you've been caught in......
"The magic on the badge won't protect you for long, if you keep being stubborn...... Remember my words, a pariah will always be a pariah and will never be a noble magician. ”
Hmm~ The silver-haired figure disappeared into the room.
"Whew~" Du Kang breathed a sigh of relief and almost collapsed on the table.
Talking to such a powerful magician is an extremely tiring thing, not to mention the fact that the other party deliberately releases oppression.
Du Kang's relaxation before was deliberately pretended. Especially when the other party asked about the death threat, Du Kang's heart actually mentioned his throat.
Thankfully, he was right! And he got a lot of information.
The badge of the Glorious Magic Academy that he got seems to have been left with an amazing magic. So that the other party did not dare to act rashly.
It's just that it seems that this magic has an expiration date, so when will it expire?
What has happened in fifteen years? So much so that now the Matthews family has to embarrass themselves? Does the decline of the Payne family have anything to do with this badge?
..................
Du Kang's doubts were quickly answered, and not long after the silver-haired man left, another person walked in.
A middle-aged magician in a white robe.
"My name is Jager Rudolph Payne. I am a member of the Payne family and a mentor at the Radiant Academy of Magic. I know you have a lot of doubts. I also know that someone from the Matthews family has just visited...... I have come to fulfill a promise made fifteen years ago. So you're going to come with me now...... Or do you want to stay in this place of the hell?"
Someone from the Payne family?
