Chapter 19 The lesser of two evils
The opportunity came sooner than Rovi expected, and after completing the routine field magic training that afternoon, Anthy-Ava announced in public that tomorrow would be a weekly rest day, so everyone could leave the magic academy and go back to their respective homes to find their own mothers and do whatever they wanted.
The first to leave the Ice House were Christopher Nanoldin, a second-year teenager, and Ina Kinch, who had long been accustomed to following the former.
Then, Anne, who took the place of her mother, Lady Alvina Ava, who managed to teach the magical students, left a brief explanation for her return by tomorrow evening, and left the Ice House for an unknown place.
The little girl Jiaqi Rocco was originally a "foreigner" and was still very young, so she could only stay in the Ice and Snow House, but Shirley Griffin used up a few spell casting materials, so she dragged the little girl Jia Qi to buy spell casting materials and go shopping by the way.
"Mr. Mojac is going to go out into the street together, we can explain to Mr. Mojac about the situation of this city in the mountains, of course, the most important thing is that there is a valiant knight by your side, and we two girls will be much more at ease." ”
Before going out, Shirley Griffin invited Luo Wei to join her, because they were already familiar with each other, and she had already dared to make this kind of joke with Luo Wei.
But then again, if it weren't for the fact that Luo Wei showed very good magical potential, probably Shirley Griffin wouldn't have said such things to continue to bring each other closer.
"As much as I would like to be a valiant knight who guards the two beautiful young ladies, I can only say sorry to the dragon-like mountain of exercises in front of me. ”
Lowe politely declined Shirley Griffin's offer, he didn't have time to play the Flower Knight right now.
Miss Jiaqi is an affinity for the ice element, and Shirley Griffin is a magic apprentice who is about to be promoted, and the two of them go out shopping together, ordinary hooligans are basically only repaired by them, how easy is it to take advantage of them?
In this world of sword and magic, the strong and the weak are not like the earth, and they can be clearly distinguished from the difference in gender and the number of muscles.
Seeing that Luo Wei clearly refused, Shirley Griffin, who made the invitation, no longer persuaded her, but took Gagie Rocco and Luo Wei to say goodbye politely and went out.
In this way, the Ice and Snow House was finally left alone with Luo Wei...... No, only Rowe and the two new maids remained.
"Then again, our Miss Anne-Ava is really reassuring to me, a newcomer, aren't you afraid that I will take advantage of everyone's absence to do whatever I want in the Ice and Snow House?"
After finishing a book of exercises at the fastest speed he could, Luo Wei looked around the empty hall and complained.
Although he complained like this, Rowe didn't have any idea of doing whatever he wanted, but got up and pulled the rope that summoned the maid.
There are only two maids in the Ice House, Barbarossa and Lancôme, so the chance of Rovi pulling the rope to summon the maid is ...... Fifty percent.
To say that Rowe had really good luck today, because Barbarossa, who was wearing a maid suit, quickly appeared in front of him.
"What do you need, respect, respect...... Dear Mr. Magician?"
Barbarossa had indeed been trained by the Lady Alfrida to be a maid who was very in line with the maid's rules, and after she hurried to Rovi's side, she bowed to Rovi and asked, even if she was cringe.
According to the rules of the Candia School of Magic, the maids all refer to magic apprentices and low-ring magicians who learn magic as Mr. Magician.
"You know me, don't you?"
Where did Rowe need anything, his only purpose in summoning Barbarossa was to check the gaps in the seal.
Barbarossa didn't answer Rowe's inquiry, but just stood in front of Rowe with her hands folded.
Don't you dare to answer?
Rowe noticed that Barbarossa's eyes flickered with hesitation and struggle as she looked at him.
"Did the slave trader sell you and your sisters to the Academy of Magic?" Rowe continued, and he quickly added, "If you don't dare to answer in words, then answer me with a nod and a shake of the head, the nod means I am right, and the shake means that I guessed wrong." ”
This time, Barbarossa finally reacted, and she shook her head at Rowe.
"No......" Luo Wei frowned, and then quickly asked, "If they weren't all bought into the Academy of Magic, then do you know if your sisters were sold to anyone else?" ”
Barbarossa shook her head.
"So, do you want to get rid of your status as a maid?"
This time, Barbarossa obviously hesitated for a moment before slowly shaking her head.
To be honest, Rowe didn't expect that Barbarossa would not want to lose her status as a maid.
But after thinking about it, Rowe, who tried to think from Barbarossa's point of view, quickly basically guessed the reason why Barbarossa shook her head - compared to Asrat's home that was not full of food, compared to being a slave girl in other places that did not know the details at all, and working as a maid in the Candia School of Magic, it was already a better home.
This is easy to understand, but it is just a very simple comparison of two evils.
"I basically get what you're thinking. Rowe smiled softly at Barbarossa, "Then Barbarossa, that slave trader Korenwe, is still in Candia? If so, I can go to him and see if I can let your sisters find a better home." Of course, in exchange, Barbarossa, you can't reveal my true identity to anyone else...... How?"
Rowe didn't coax Barbarossa, if the slave trader Korenwe was still in Candia, although he couldn't go to Korenwei with his current face, but it would be okay to dress himself up as an Arab and find a middleman or something, right?
And this time, Barbarosa didn't even hesitate, and nodded directly at Luo Wei.
The optimization result of the two benefits was achieved, and Luo Wei was in a very good mood, but he just wanted to appease Barbarossa a few more words, and then asked the slave trader Colonway for information, and the originally peaceful Candia School of Magic suddenly let out a loud explosion!
With the sound of violent explosions, the earth also shook violently, and the ice sculptures that filled the hall of the Ice and Snow House collapsed one after another in the tremor of the earthquake, and the entire villa also made an unbearable creaking sound.
What's going on?
Earthquake?!
Luo Wei, who reacted, grabbed Barbarossa's hand, and then stumbled towards the gate of the Ice House with the automatic activation of the ice shield.
Regardless of whether he was an earthquake or not, it was definitely not the work of a wise man to continue to stay in the house in this situation.
