Salz School of Magic Auditorium.

The banquet hosted by the college is in full swing.

In addition to the students, there were also wealthy and aristocratic parents who wanted to get to know Annan, but they were kept out by the girls who surrounded Annan - fortunately, Annan remembered the curfew and asked Ormedo and the others to go back first.

The fishing duel between Fast and Lela was also postponed.

It took Annan more effort than the game itself to get rid of them. He went to the long table and grabbed a piece of pastry, and there was a discussion about him next to him:

"The King of the North? Scold...... It's such a big name, it is estimated that it is a self-proclaimed nobleman in a small place. But it's really qualified...... Sartovis Academy beat Salz Academy half to death, and he beat Sertovis Academy half to death. ”

For the sake of compliments, Annan didn't say anything, and came to Dean Brehim with his pastry. The dean, who was talking to a middle-aged nobleman, said something and beckoned to Annan.

Annan stuffed the pastry into his mouth and asked, "Dean, who is the next opponent in the game, and when will it start?" ”

"Are you eager?" Dean Brehim's smile never faded after returning from the Colosseum.

"I'm a lord, and territory is like a mage's staff to me."

"You rest for two more days, and those people from the Ministry of Etiquette should bring new news." Dean Brehim handed Annan a glass of red wine, "So, the king of the North who brought honor to the academy, what can the academy reward you?" ”

"Territory, Kinnar can do too."

Annan's answer was very Elimoas, not like an ivory tower at all.

"It seems that our champions are not demanding."

Dean Brahim looked out of the banquet and saw a new guest arrive.

The new guests did not warm up the atmosphere of the banquet, but became a piece of ice with boiling water.

Because it was someone from Sertovis College who came.

Annan unintentionally joined the whirlpool of formation, pinched a glass of red wine, and the aroma of the grapes after fermentation made him can't help but taste it. The sweetness is very light, and it can only be said that it smells better than it tastes.

Ludkin, who had faintly become Annan's follower, came to his side and whispered: "Your Highness, do you know?" There's a guy at Slertovis College who has a crush on you. ”

"Favorable?"

"yes, the kind of ...... that quietly likes you"

Under the influence of red wine, a scene appeared in Annan's mind for no reason with a wine glass:

In the soothing and warm music of "The Fall of the Mage Tower", a boy walks on the uninhabited beach on the rippling blue seaside beach, and a crisp and pleasant voice suddenly sounds:

"What a coincidence, you're here too."

The girl holding her trouser legs holds her hands behind her back, smiling like a bright sunshine. "Do you want to be together?"

"Good...... Okay."

As the sun sets, young girls with immature feelings stroll on the white beach, and under the sunset, the narrow shadows gradually stick together-

"The guy who has a crush on you is here!"

Exclaimed, Lutheran King stepped aside, and behind him, a young man walked towards Annan.

Delphi uttered a gruff bass: "You're younger and ...... than I thought Handsome. ”

The music in his head stopped abruptly, and when the aftermath echoed, Annan indifferently handed the wine glass to Ludher King: "I'm sorry, I remembered that the family dog forgot to feed it, and I lost my company first." ”

Annan, who didn't stay long, made Ludher King misunderstand, and said with hostility: "You were defeated by His Highness alone, and you still came to the banquet to make trouble?" ”

"Your Highness? It was a misunderstanding, and we came with good intentions. ”

There are not many contradictions between Sartovis College and Salz College,

At most, Srtovis College looks down on Salz Academy, Sartovis Academy professors look down on Salz Academy professors, and Sartovis Academy students look down on Salz College students.

But just as Srtovis Academy defeated Salz College and blessed them to win the ranking for the City of Innocence, Annan cried Sertovis Academy, and they also blessed Annan to win the ranking.

Annan, who was far away from the whirlpool, was approached by Alice again. As the protagonist of this celebration dinner, it is difficult for Annan to be alone tonight.

"Don't be lost to vanity."

Alice said for no reason: "Those who like you because of money will leave because you lose your wealth, those who like you because of your appearance will change their minds because you are old, those who like you because of strength will go away because you lose your strength......"

"You suggest I add this story to the script?"

"I'm reminding you, Annan. It's not like the North, you'll see a myriad of things you've never seen before, wealth, beauty...... Countless geniuses are unknown because of them. ”

"Don't worry, I know what I want?"

"What do you want?" The upright Alice asked directly.

"Nezumi."

Alice looked at Annan strangely: "Could it be that the rumors are ......?"

"Elves, orcs. Goblins, kobolds, minotaurs, gnolls, demons...... The races of this world can live together without estrangement and hatred. ”

Xingyue Bay is not counted, there are only a few dozen aliens there at most, so the atmosphere is similar to the town before the alien order.

Alice was about to say something, and her hurried footsteps suddenly burst into the banquet.

The vice-dean's stumbling footsteps made Annan, who had recently been writing "Annan Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", think that he was going to shout out the next moment: Troll invasion.

But it was almost the same, I saw the vice president running in front of the dean Brehim, and the hurried words could be heard in half of the auditorium: "The officials of the Imperial Etiquette Department are here!" They are in trouble! ”

The words fell, and the sound of neat leather boots stepped on the steps outside the auditorium. As officials of the Ministry of Etiquette, their manners are impeccable. It's just that they made the hot banquet instantly cold.

Seeing them walking towards him, Annan had to confirm that the banquet was not held in his own name.

They came for Annan's identity—not as the king of the North, but as a student.

Annan was slandered as not a student.

The plot that Annan was looking forward to did not appear on the field, but it did appear at the post-match celebration dinner.

However, as soon as the trouble appeared, it was eliminated by the joint force. Dean Brechium told officials that this did not exist, and the visiting Slertovis College was forced to testify on Annan's behalf.

It wasn't long before the academy professor hurried in with the parchment scroll signed on the day Annan entered the school, several days before the Imperial Tournament was announced.

The news of the Imperial Tournament may have been discussed in the imperial capital for a long time, but if Annan could even know this secret in advance...... Why do you need the dean's help in the matter of the fief?

Officials of the Ministry of Etiquette, who confirmed Annan's innocence, left. But their arrival, coupled with the quiet retreat of the aristocratic and wealthy parents with not very clean buttocks, could no longer maintain the excitement of the banquet.

The students left one after another, ready to continue their second round.
