Chapter 43: An Invitation to Portraits

Rubersky was obviously stunned, and then smiled: "There is indeed this rumor, but there is no record in the academy, so ah, in fact, it is just a rumor, don't take it seriously." ”

After a pause, he changed his words again: "But don't worry, you have achieved such excellent results, and the academy will definitely give you a rich reward." ”

"Okay. Although Leo had a certain amount of mental preparation, he still felt a little disappointed when he heard the other party say this.

Breaking two records in a row, no, it should be three, the academy should indeed come up with something decent, but it wasn't from Antonidas after all.

Seeing that Leo accepted it, Rubersky didn't want to delay any longer, after all, the game had to continue, so he immediately said: "Then I will tell Dean SΓΉ of your decision now, and see what he thinks, you can wait for me here for a while." ”

"No problem. Leo nodded.

Just as Ruberski was communicating with Fran through the sound magic, an unfamiliar male voice suddenly came: "Hey, boy, don't listen to his nonsense. ”

"Huh?" Leo's heart jumped, and he looked in the direction where the voice came from, but there was no one at all.

And Rubersky and the referee not far away all looked natural, and it seemed that they didn't hear this voice.

"What's the situation?" Leo became more and more confused, but cautiously did not make any move.

The male voice smiled and said, "Can't you see me?" ”

Leo looked in the direction from which the voice had come from, but still found nothing.

"What the hell is this......"

In broad daylight, he heard voices that others couldn't hear, and all the mages present were of good strength, but no one noticed the situation.

A terrifying feeling hit him, and his hairs stood on end.

"Don't listen to his nonsense, who is talking nonsense, what nonsense?" Leo quickly recalled what the male voice had just said.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he hurriedly looked at the row of portraits hanging in the distance.

It was a portrait of the record holders of the House Athletics. Four of them are identical and the most conspicuous.

The portrait is of a young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old, with slightly curled blonde hair and blue eyes. The appearance is not very handsome, but it is easy to make people feel kind. And he still has a mischievous smile on his face, and he looks like a lively and cheerful person.

Leo knows that this is Antonidas, who has created countless miracles, but in his student career, he is extremely hated by his mentor and the academy.

The titles he has are louder than the other.

His Majesty the Emperor of Magic, the liberator of magic, and the first speaker of the Supreme Council of Magic in Lordaeron. He was the one who really changed the history of magic. The pinnacle of magic revered and worshipped by all mages in the world.

As if sensing Leo's gaze, the four identical portraits blinked at the same time, and the man's voice came again: "Very good, I thought I would never see anyone beat my record." ”

Without giving Leo time to react, the male voice continued: "Yes, it's me, don't doubt it." But don't talk, just listen to me. ”

"You think I'm a cautious person? Hahaha, congratulations on getting it right. I'm a cautious man! very, very small, smaller than a pinhole, and 10,000 times smaller!"

"Since you dare to break my record, be prepared to be punished. ”

"You don't seem worried?"

"Okay. I'm kidding, you don't have much humor. ”

"Well, of course I'll give you a reward, and a reward that will make you red-faced, heart-pounding, and helpless! I'm looking forward to it. ”

"Hey, you're such a boring person! I'm starting to dislike you! So now I'm going to go back to sleep!"

"Reward? Do you want to offer me a reward? Okay, I'll give you a reward as promised, but not now. Twelve o'clock in the night. Come here to me, alone! If you dare to tell anyone else that you've seen me, hum, I swear I'll tear up the ticket! At that time, not to mention the reward, you won't even get a hair!"

"It's a bit too much today, I'm really tired, so see you in the evening, you must come, people are waiting for you." ”

After saying that, the four portraits threw a wink at the same time, and then resumed as usual, and the sound disappeared completely.

"That's a bit of a lot, it's just chatter!" Leo's head, which he felt was about to explode, finally soothed.

Although he still hasn't figured out what is going on, one thing is finally certain, the rumors that Antonidas is a chatter are absolutely true!

If it weren't for the fact that Antonidas was a human and Lordaeron was a magical mecca for humans, Leo would almost have thought that the other party was a brass dragon.

"Could it be a fragment of his soul, sealed in a portrait, and only awakened when a record is broken?" Leo speculated. At the same time, he was also very sure that if this discovery was announced, it would definitely be able to cause an uproar in the entire Gaia human magic world.

It's just that...... The portrait deliberately emphasizes that he does not speak out.

Leo quickly decided to keep quiet for the time being, and at least get his hands on the reward anyway.

That's a reward from Antonidas, no matter what, it won't be too bad.

At this time, Rubersky had already finished communicating with Fran, turned his head, and saw what Leo was thinking, so he asked curiously, "Leo-san, what are you thinking?"

Leo hurriedly put his thoughts aside for the time being, and replied, "No, what did the dean say?"

"The Dean agrees with your decision, but ...... for the reward given to you," Rubersky looked apologetic, "The academy higher-ups need to study it again, after all, no one has ever broken His Majesty's record before." ”

"It's okay, I understand. Leo said empathetically, then gave Rubersky a mage salute and turned to walk towards the audience.

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

In the evening, in a certain room of the college conference room, a group of college executives gathered here in a very rare way.

They are the dean, the vice dean, the dean of teaching, the director of administration, the director of external affairs, the director of projects, and the head of the academy's mage defense corps.

Fran, as the dean, took the lead and said, "This time the competition is over, do you have anything to say?"

Associate Dean Brandi Wood continued, "What else is there to say, as successful as before, is this what His Excellency the Dean has brought us for?"

Silriman immediately snorted: "The vice president is in such a hurry, it seems that there is something important, it is better to leave first." ”

Brandi suddenly turned his head to look at Celeman, and sneered: "Originally, there were some things, but if the dean said so, then I would have nothing to do." (To be continued......)
