Chapter 10: Familiar Voices

It was a badge with three silver stars on a black background, and it looked very delicate.

Nerry bent down to pick it up, took it in her hand and looked at it, and said, "What a beautiful badge, what are you doing with it?"

Leo replied, "Symbolizing the status of a high-level magician, there is no other use. ”

"What is the High Magiist......" Nerry asked subconsciously, her attention completely drawn to the badge, even forgetting that she was just about to leave here.

Leo said calmly: "It is the academic title of the magic system, which means that he has made a certain contribution to magic. ”

"Oh, oh, it's about the same as the Juggernaut title among our warriors. Nieri suddenly realized, "I really don't see that you're pretty good." ”

"It's average, some people, it's easy to get. Some people can't get it for a lifetime. Leo glanced at a dull-faced Diamondson, clearly meant.

The young man on the opposite side was wearing a mage robe, and he had a rank badge representing level 4 pinned to his chest, but he didn't have any academic badges. With his obnoxious personality, if he has an academic title, he will definitely pin the badge to be displayed everywhere. So Leo concluded that he certainly did not have an academic title.

Without giving the other party a reaction, Leo suddenly turned to Sanders again, "By the way, this time the results are released, we can both get a lot of academic points, what title have you obtained?"

Sanders had already understood what Leo wanted to do, and said calmly: "You forget, this academic rating will not start until March." However, judging from the score of "Magic Light" on our paper, I can probably also get the title of Senior Demon Scholar, and you should be able to advance two levels in a row and directly become an Intermediate Demon Scholar. ”

"Magic Light...... Intermediate Demon Master ......"

Hearing these two unattainable words, Diamondson's body shook visibly, and his face began to turn pale.

Leo nodded, and after a slight groan, turned his gaze to Diamondson once more. Said: "Sanders, this cousin must seem to have superb magical attainments, I don't know what the current academic title is?"

In fact, Leo is a newcomer and doesn't want to have any conflict with anyone, and he also doesn't want to make Sanders an enemy in the family. However, judging from Sanders's appearance, it seems that he really wants to hit Diamondson, which is why he asks such questions.

"Hehe, I don't know. Sanders immediately grinned, looking at Diamondson as well. "Cousin, what's your title now?"

At this moment, Diamondson's face had turned from white to red, and his fists were clenched, but he couldn't speak at all.

His talent for magic is indeed quite good, and it only took him 4 years to graduate from the Academy of Magic, and he has been studying and working in the family room. And precisely because of the recent graduation. In many aspects, he didn't delve deep enough, so he only carried out some superficial practical projects, and although he also gained a small number of academic points, it was not enough to even be promoted to the most basic junior demon scholar.

After a short silence. Knowing that stopping here would only be more humiliating, Diamondson glared at Sanders and Leo fiercely, and turned away without saying a word.

Sight Diamond leaving. Nieri then remembered that she was leaving, so she said to Leo with some hesitation, "That...... That one...... I don't feel like I'm a good fit to be a guard here, so I'd better go home. ”

Leo couldn't help but feel a little helpless. But in my heart, I knew that Niri was telling the truth. This woman has been a mercenary for several years, and her temper is a little hot, I am afraid that she will not be able to endure any grievances, and she is indeed not suitable to be a guard for everyone.

However, when she came out of the mountain village, she had already promised her father that she couldn't let her leave without thinking about it.

"Then what do you want to do when you go home, farming?"

Hearing him say this, Niri was immediately dissatisfied: "How is it possible, I am also a level 3 warrior!"

"Do you still want to be a mercenary?" asked Leo again.

"Yes!" replied Nyri without thinking, but soon remembered her previous experience and lowered her face, "But I'm a woman after all, a mercenary...... Alas. ”

Leo could see that Nerry really liked to be a mercenary, so he immediately stopped hesitating and said, "I know the leader of a mercenary group, if you still want to be a mercenary, I can introduce you to it." ”

"Captain......" Nerry frowned, a little resistant to the word tomorrow.

Leo smiled and said, "Don't worry, the leader I know is a very good person, and their mercenary group is being rebuilt, you can be a captain or something." ”

"Really nice people?"

"Really, I swear. ”

"Okay, I'll give it a try!"

Leo nodded, "Okay, but I don't know about them now, so I'd better write a letter to ask first, if you don't have anything else, just stay here for a few days, and wait until you receive a reply before making a decision." ”

"Young Master Leo, where are you going to deliver the letter?" the old butler asked respectfully. After learning that Leo turned out to be a high-level magician and would soon become an intermediate magician, the old man, who had studied magic all his life but barely reached level 2, was already full of admiration in his heart. At the same time, he also secretly made up his mind that he must entertain several guests, and it is extremely rare for Young Master Sanders to have such a friend.

Leoleo recalled, "It's Gordon in County Galle." ”

"Gordon City, I know it's a big city in the South Central Side. The old butler paused and continued: "Young Master Leo, if you don't worry, I can help you use the family's message channel, and it will be delivered in three days at the latest." ”

"That's great. Leo said gratefully. He had originally thought of using the Magician's communication channel, but he would definitely need to return to Cape Dorne, and he would have to delay a lot of time, and if it was really like the old butler said, there were only six days to come and go, just enough time to let himself deal with things.

Soon he came to the drawing-room, and after eating hot soup and bread, Leo wrote a letter and handed it to the old butler.

The old butler was about to leave, but Saunders suddenly remembered something and asked, "Uncle Ned, there is an auction going to be held in the city recently?"

"That's the case, the young master has heard about it. The old butler paused and replied.

Sanders wondered, "Which family is going to hold an auction, can we make money here?"

The old butler obviously got the news a long time ago, and immediately said: "It's not a family, but an underground organization, they seem to have discovered some ancient ruins, and they got a lot of good things from them, so they will hold an auction in five days." ”

"What's all good?" Sanders asked.

The old housekeeper shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, but our family has also received several invitations, and the master has no special arrangements, so if you want to go, I can get you an invitation." ”

"Go, of course!" Sanders' eyes lit up as he looked at Leo expectantly.

"Then go ahead. Leo didn't care. If something good came up at the auction, he didn't believe he could afford it, so he might as well go and take a look.

............

Three nights later, after everyone had already slept, Leo secretly left the Hawley Mansion and made a quick journey north. Since he received the Hawley family badge from Saunders, he can come and go freely without triggering the mansion defense magic. The city of Lore is called a city, but it has no walls, which makes his journey smoother.

In the past three days, Leo has spent a rare leisurely time, eating and drinking every day, visiting the mansion, and visiting the places of interest near the city of Lore, which is a very good relaxation. Except for Diamondson, the rest of the Hawley family got along well, and Leo also discussed some magic issues with them, and had a lot of gains, but Sanders's grandfather and father never returned, which made him feel a little regretful.

At night, the blue moon glows softly, and with about an hour to go before the full moon, Leo has already arrived at Lake Serin.

In winter, the surface of the lake is completely frozen, like a whole large mirror, reflecting the light of the blue moon, giving people a splendid feeling.

Leo did not come directly to the lake, but hid in the shadows of the woods near the lakeside, although he knew very well that it would be difficult for him not to be discovered.

Sure enough, before he could see his surroundings clearly, a familiar voice came: "Hey, Leo, long time no see." (To be continued......)
