"We can't sit still!"

Auster Mansion. The captain of the Bell Gordon Knight Academy shouted passionately in the meeting room.

"I've heard about offensive behavior at the Salz Academy of Magic, and it's a shame on us to make such an academy top ten! The farther they go, the more this tournament will become a joke! ”

The captains of the several academies who had been invited looked at each other.

"The Habar Knight Academy will not participate." Ellie, the armored girl, was the first to stand up.

"Neither will Freya's Sacred Academy." She thought it was a normal party.

"Outside of the game against a college non-chaplain." Said the captain of the Puddingburg Abbey.

"Who invited me? We're not even in the top ten! The captain of the Unknown Academy shouted.

Only the barbarian of the Tanamurdo Academy asked with interest: "What do you want to do?" ”

"Uh...... You don't participate? The captain of the Bell Gordon Knight Academy was stunned.

"That's all you can get when you get twenty-one invitations, and that's all the man gets sixteen invitations...... Allie looked at him pityingly, but didn't leave her seat.

"It's time for us to leave." The captain of Freya's Sacred Academy stood up.

She knew that the man's large elements could fill the Imperial Gladiatorial Arena, but she didn't have a reason to tell them.

The captain of the Abbey of Puddingburg followed, and Burns looked at their backs and thoughtfully said, "As if there was something we didn't know......"

They went to investigate again, and found out what Annan had done in the nest competition, and then they were uneasy.

Because of the next Top 10 Tournament, their first game is against Salz School of Magic......

Captain Burns and the rest of the academy said, "They made a mess of the nest race and plundered what belonged to us,"

When the emotions of the guests were gradually stirred, the knight girl suddenly said, "That's not ours. ”

Anger was poured with ice water, like a druid mixed in a pack of hungry wolves.

"Are you willing to give that guy 10,000 gold coins?" Burns tried to provoke Ellie's anger and looked around at several others: "I know he'll be in the auction in seven days, it's a good opportunity for us......"

"You want to assassinate him? In the imperial capital? ”

"No, just to cause him some trouble......"

……

Annan hurried back to the manor.

"Is there a catch?" Alice asked him.

"It's a good harvest!" Annan said pompously.

"But it's only been an hour since you left the manor and come back." Alice mercilessly dismissed the lie.

"Do you know the Time Hallows?"

"You want to say that the library has a time artifact, and an hour has passed in reality but a day has passed inside?"

"Hmm...... Well! ”

Annan picked up Lily and hid her head behind Lily's back.

It's painful to learn...... Let's ask someone from the Warlock Protection Society to give you an arcane core.

For the next few days, Annam wandered between the imperial capital and the manor, occasionally stumbling to the ruins of Sorendor. A caster can completely ignore the resistance and pull in the Undertown.

As the time approaches, the much-anticipated format of the Top 10 Tournament is released: the score system.

All houses will face off against the remaining nine houses in a ten-day format, with the house with the highest score becoming the champion.

"Don't you have to prepare for the next game?" Orin Montreal annoyed Annan.

"Sister Orin isn't very well-informed."

“……”

Orin Montreal left with a cold face, and was met by a hurried guard.

"What's the matter?" Orin Montreal called the guards.

"The Khabar Knight Academy is visiting outside the manor."

"Habar...... That academy that was bullied by Annan? Orin Montreal slowed down, stood in front of the window, and watched as the guards brought in the uninvited guests.

As the head of the Knights, Orin Montreal could see that the steps and postures of the Armored Maiden strictly adhered to knightly etiquette, a natural female knight......

"Annan!" But when the maiden saw Annan, her ice melted, and she greeted with joy.

Orin was puzzled. Shouldn't they be enemies? Why is it this reaction to see Annan......

"Bel Gordon Knights Academy is targeting you."

Ellie told Annan the news of her undercover arrival, and her eyes fell on Annan without blinking: "And this ......"

She handed Annan a piece of parchment.

"What is this?"

Annan took the parchment and saw a line of handwriting: Scene 1: Salz School of Magic vs. Knights of Belgordon.

"Where did it come from?"

"The ...... leaked from the Ministry of Etiquette The Ministry of Etiquette is deliberately targeting you. ”

"Why do you think that?" Annan disagreed, "It should be our opponents who are being targeted." ”

It's better to say that the etiquette department, which knows Annan's strength, is giving other academies a chance to fight back.

So the Bell Gordon Knight Academy is smart enough to realize this, but only half as smart: "They also know that you are going to the auction tomorrow and want to trouble you at the auction house." ”

This became a common doubt between Annan and Ellie: What does trouble with Annan at the auction have to do with the Top 10 Tournament?

But there doesn't seem to be any other way to target Annan. Off the field, Belgordon Knight Academy didn't have the guts to make a move in Montreal Manor and the Imperial Capital, and on the field, Belgordon Knight Academy couldn't beat them, so there was nothing to worry about.

In any case, Annan's question was "how to impress the audience during the game so that the magic image can be sold".

"By the way, there will be a banquet the day after tomorrow, which will be attended by all the academies and many noble officials, will you come?"

"Of course."

But Annan only wanted their money.

Watching Ellie get into the carriage and leave, Annan was thoughtful.

Originally, he wanted to auction a few magic rings, but after Orin Montreal agreed to buy the magic rings at a discount, Annan was not interested in participating in the auction again, but now he has to participate......

The next day, Annan went to the auction house and asked the boss for a list of auctions, and while looking through it, he asked, "Can I bid on my own things?" ”

"I'm sorry Mr. Annan, but we want to protect the reputation of the auction house." The boss decisively refused.

The flipping list stopped: "Sir Kimberley...... This person has eight lots? Can I get acquainted? ”

"Of course."

Maintenance in name only. The auction house's earnings depend on the commission, and the higher the auction price, the greater their profits.

Annan drove to visit the Kimberly Sir who was undoubtedly a nobleman, but in the imperial capital, he did not even have a manor, only a single-family house.

After Annan explained his intentions, Sir Kimberley asked, "You want to help me raise the price?" Why? ”

"No, it's not a free help, free is the number one word I hate, unless it's given to me...... My request is that I share half of the premium after my bid. ”

"Up to a third of you."

"It can't be. If you don't promise me, I can find someone else. ”

"Okay, that's what you say."

"It's a pleasure to work with."
