Chapter 157: Arrange the Aftermath

In the end, it was Lord Epps who took the lead in admitting defeat, put down the scroll in his hand, and looked up at his daughter,

"Niya, why don't you say anything when you come?" Niya, who was already about to speak, paused for a moment, but then reacted,

"Father, why do you have to arrange for someone for me? Don't I have a garner there?" Niya is quite puzzled, usually the mentor will not refuse the large number of people under him, but she is different, what does the daughter of the lord want not to get?

How can this be achieved by exploiting apprentices? Some time ago, a total of three apprentices in the Mage Tower became official mages, and Niya was assigned to an apprenticeship at that time, and she still feels very uncomfortable.

And this time she was assigned an apprenticeship, and Niya immediately came to her father to theorize. As a father, how could Lord Epps not know his daughter's thoughts, but he also had a hard time and didn't want Niya to know for the time being.

The revelation that the advanced Arcanist of Alberk had won, although it might not have happened, was enough to make Lord Epps change some of his plans.

For example, inheriting Rao's cultivation, the original plan of Lord Epps was to use about ten years for Nia to gradually take over the affairs of the territory and become an arcanist.

With him, he can ensure a smooth transition of power, the most critical of which is the authority of the Mage Tower, which will take a long time to transfer.

But now he had to plan ahead.

"Nia, Garnar, and Shado are both very endowed young men who will be your assistants in controlling the Mage Tower in the future. In addition, as long as there are new mages with good endowments in the future, I will arrange them for you, and you must learn how to manage them. ”

"Father—" Niya originally just wanted to complain, but she didn't expect her father to arrange an apprenticeship for her, and her dissatisfaction was immediately written on her face.

It's just that Lord Eps's words are not finished, and he doesn't seem to see his daughter's dissatisfaction at all, and continues: "Also, every time you come to me in the future to familiarize yourself with the government affairs of the territory, and I will ask questions, and if you can't answer, your monthly quota will be deducted." ”

"Huh?" Niya was stunned, she was not stupid, but quite smart, hearing her father like this, her original intention to complain immediately disappeared, replaced by a kind of confusion and uneasiness.

She subconsciously asked,

"Father, why is it so urgent?" All kinds of actions show that her father wants her to take over the territory as soon as possible, which is not in line with the previous plan, why is this?

"Your Uncle Alberk has successfully advanced to an arcane master, and I don't want to fall too far behind, I will spend more time on magic in the future, hoping to become an archmage in my lifetime." Lord Epps's explanation was very common, becoming an archmage was a prerequisite for using life extension spells, and Nia also knew this, she didn't doubt it, but just felt a sudden pressure.

It was even more so than when her father asked her to go to the orc battlefield years ago, after all, although she knew that she would take over the territory in the future, she still had plenty of time.

But I didn't expect that now it was suddenly ahead of schedule.

"I see, father." Niya nodded resolutely and solemnly assured,

"I'll do my best!" Epps felt a little unbearable in his heart, but he knew that this was something that every generation of the Savile family heirs had to go through, and Nia was quite strong in her heart despite her age.

"Go back, come to me after dinner tomorrow."

"Yes, father." …… After Nia left, a figure suddenly appeared on a careless chair in the lord's room, it was the new arcane master of the Mage Tower, Abbak.

"Epps, you've made up your mind?"

"Hmm." Epps nodded, and buried himself in the volume. Alberck on the side didn't know anything, and if he could, he would rather not see any revelations or prophecies, which would be torture for anyone in the know.

But once a prophecy appears, whether it is true or not, something must be addressed. Although he has always regarded Nia as his daughter, it is obviously very inappropriate to spoil senselessly at such a time.

"By the way, what are you going to do with that Mrs. Patty?" Alberke asked.

"Let her stay in the Mage Tower for a while for the time being, so as not to let her out and cause trouble." As if suddenly remembering something, Lord Epps again,

"I received news that Fairbers' son left Connefila City, he should have come to Savile to lead, you should pay attention recently, don't let him die here too, I have already informed Theon, he will cooperate with you."

"Got it." After that, the two discussed some things about the Mage Tower and the territory before ending the meeting.

…… Second, Xia Duo woke up from his new bedroom, and the bright light made him subconsciously squint his eyes, and then immediately jumped out of bed.

The first thing he had to do was ask Taling for the time. And was told that it was only 4 o'clock in the morning, and Xia Duo reacted that it turned out that the official mage had no lights out at night at all.

This makes it easier for the mages to stay up all night, but it is obviously inefficient, and it requires more self-discipline on the part of the mages, otherwise the better the environment, the more hindered it will be.

But after thinking about it, since there is no shadow to turn off the lights", there must be a switch, otherwise it will be on all the time, and it will not be convenient to rest.

Yesterday, Xia Duo didn't think of this at all, and now it's not too late to think of it, he immediately asked Ta Ling about some information about the mage's residence, which is different from the apprentice stage, and now Ta Ling is much more agile in answering questions.

Although the voice is still the same voice, many questions that were not answered at all are now answered.

For example, if you ask about the apprentice stage, you will be punished by Taling for extending the response time, but now it is directly introduced.

Aside from the fact that death requires money, the current Taling is still quite good. Meals need to be booked in advance, and Xia Duo forgot yesterday, he first made reservations with Taling for lunch and evening food, and then went to the restaurant on the first floor.

The time has not yet come

When the lights were on, Xia Duo found that the outside of the sixth floor where the mages were still bright, even on the first floor.

When it comes to the math, it seems that only apprentices can enjoy the standard

"Eight-hour rest system". …… Have you ever seen a mage tower past four in the morning? Xia Duo hadn't seen it before, but when he came to the dining room, he saw a group of apprentices moving piles of food from the kitchen and placing them in the pick-up area.

In addition to bread, there are also egg rolls and cheese, which is considered a large pot of rice. Xia Duo took a piece of food and left, nothing but a few curious apprentices looking at it.

He was still dressed as an apprentice, and he would have to go to the material application office to get his equipment before he would go to see his mentor.
