The roads in the royal capital are very smooth, and the carriages driving on the road of the royal capital are only slightly tremor. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Ark sat in the carriage, holding a letter in his hand and kept looking at it repeatedly, this was given to Ark by Cologne before, if Ark arrived in the royal capital, he would give this letter to Mr. Mercury.

As for what exactly this Mr. Mercury was doing, Ark didn't know anything, and he could only use the address on the envelope to let the carriage go towards the location on the address.

After a while, the carriage came to a halt, and the coachman whispered, "Mr. Ark, you have arrived." ”

Ark jumped out of the carriage and saw that in front of him was a relatively small attic, with three floors, the outside gate was closed, and there seemed to be no people around.

The entire royal capital is now overcrowded, but it is indeed rare that such a quiet place is still maintained.

Ark walked up and knocked softly on the door.

After a while, the door opened slightly, and out of it came a young man, only half leaning out, with short brown hair, looking a little wary. The other party looked Ark up and down, frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

Ark kept smiling and said, "My name is Ark, and Mr. Mercury is here?"

"Ark? I don't know, it's a private place, no one who doesn't know can enter. ”

The other party didn't answer whether Mr. Mercury was here, but only reminded that people who were not acquaintances could not enter here, and it seemed that he was still more vigilant.

But Ark already understood, and he took out a letter from his bosom, still smiling, and said, "Please bring this letter to Mr. Mercury." ”

The brown-haired man glanced at the envelope in Ark's hand suspiciously, but still took the envelope and said coldly, "You wait." ”

With that, he closed the door again, apparently delivering a letter.

Ark was not in a hurry, since Mr. Cologne asked him to visit Mr. Mercury, it must be someone that Mr. Cologne trusted, and after seeing the letter, the other party should meet him.

It didn't take long for the door to open completely, and the brown-haired man appeared again, he looked at Ark in some surprise, and then said respectfully, "Mr. Ark, Mr. Mercury, please come in." ”

"There is Lao to lead the way. ”

Ark followed the brown-haired man into the small attic. This small attic looks quite small from the outside, but I didn't expect it to be relatively spacious inside. Ark saw some of the rooms in the attic on the first floor, some of the younger boys and girls were learning to paint with paintbrushes.

There were also people in the attic on the second floor, but they were a little older, and seemed to be learning to use musical instruments, and there were some beautiful women teaching some etiquette, and the young men and women were also very serious.

On the third floor, there were many complicated antiques on display, and there were only a few people, all of whom should be nobles from the way they were dressed, and they were respectfully listening to an old man with a thin figure but a ruddy face explaining the knowledge about antiques.

Ark also stood outside the door and listened for a while, he didn't know anything about antiques, but the old man was able to tell in simple terms, so that people could understand it very directly. A small antique contains a huge amount of information, even if it is told for three days and three nights, it may not be able to be finished.

After the old man had spoken for a while, he whispered a few words to the noble children, and then the noble children got up and saluted the old man, and then got up and left the room.

As they passed by Ark, the men also looked at Ark carefully, as if curious.

"Come in, Ark. ”

When everyone had left, the old man beckoned to Ark.

Ark had already roughly guessed the identity of the old man, so he walked into the room and saluted respectfully, "Mr. Mercury." ”

The old man was naturally Mr. Mercury, and he took a closer look at Ark, then waved his hand to let the brown-haired man leave, leaving him and Ark alone in the room.

"I have received Cologne's letter, and Cologne praised you in the letter, saying that you are his hope...... By the way, how's Cologne doing?"

It seems that Cologne also gave some detailed information about Ark's situation in the letter, so that Mr. Mercury would know.

"The teacher is dead, killed by the sorcerer Moon. ”

Ark was able to remain calm at the mention of Cologne now, but his tone was a little cold.

Mr. Mercury let out a long sigh, and didn't seem too surprised, shook his head, and said, "Cologne and Moon...... After so many years of entanglement between them, it is indeed time for an end. In fact, in the letter, Cologne was ready, no matter who won or lost between him and Moon, everything would be over for him. ”

It seems that Mr. Mercury also knows a lot about the matter between Cologne and Moon, Ark didn't speak, just listened silently, I don't know if it was because Cologne's death was really irritating to him, and even Ark himself felt that he seemed to have changed a little. I became a little less convinced of anyone and everything, and became a lot more cautious.

Even though Cologne instructed him, Ark was still very wary of Mr. Mercury in his heart, so he did not take the initiative to speak, but kept observing Mr. Mercury.

"Are you guessing what I do? You've probably seen the attic furnishings and furnishings when you're here, what do you think I do?"

Mr. Mercury is very different from Cologne, a wise and humorous old man.

Ark thought for a moment, and finally spoke: "On the first floor of the attic I saw many teenagers learning to draw, on the second floor I saw many men and women learning various musical instruments, and on the third floor I saw Mr. Mercury talking about antiques. Therefore, Mr. Mercury was supposed to be a profound scholar and was sought after by the children of the nobility. ”

Ark didn't say the rest of the words, and the meaning couldn't have been clearer. Mr. Mercury relied on his profound knowledge to teach some noble children about painting, music, antiques, etc., and he should still have some status in the royal capital, after all, he can come into contact with so many nobles.

"Yes, yes, painting, music, etiquette, antiques, language, etc., as long as you are willing to be a noble and connotative person, I can teach them something, knowledge is power! Cologne only said in the letter that your mental strength is very strong, and you have reached one of the conditions for becoming a spellcaster, but in my opinion, you are very smart and calm, and you are better than what Cologne introduced in the letter. Even I am a little envious of Cologne, being able to receive such an excellent disciple as you. ”

Mr. Mercury nodded again and again, and he did not hesitate to praise Ark, in his opinion, Ark's calmness and wisdom were even more important than Ark's mental talent.

If Cologne had had Yak's calmness and intelligence, perhaps there would have been another ending between him and Moon.
