"Bribes?"

Card never thought that the word would be used in their current conversation.

"Yes, it's a bribe." Holding the book, Rolley affirmed, "The person I'm looking for to send letters to is not a whim, nor is it someone I send love letters to whoever looks good, but someone who has been screened out after multiple considerations." ”

"Beauty is just my personal preference, and more importantly, these people either have a high status or a high vision, in short, they can't easily lower their arrogant heads, and they can't really set their eyes on a small person like me."

"That's why you don't think they will write back to you?" Cade was thoughtful.

"That's right." Rolley affirmed his idea and added, "Of course, if something happens like today, I have a contingency plan in place. ”

"I had learned a little bit about them before I was going to write the letter."

Hearing this, Card's eyes changed: "Hey, hey, don't tell me, you went to investigate Miss Joselo, right?" ”

"Good fellow, you can't be some hidden underground overlord, right? Do you dare to investigate? ”

"You're too good at thinking." Luo Lai turned the page of the book in his hand again, and said lightly, "It's just to learn a little about the information that the public knows, not to investigate their secrets." ”

"For example, Miss Caselo, I know by inquiring that she is a very typical classical nobleman."

“？” Cade put a question mark, "What is the difference between you and telling me that you ate a bowl of rice during dinner?" ”

Luo Lai glanced at him, and there was a little surprise in his eyes: "You actually understand?" ”

Cad felt insulted, and said angrily: "I understand what I understand, don't make fun of yourself!" I just think you're talking nonsense. ”

"Huh." Luo Lai smiled lightly and said, "Actually, in a way, there really is no difference. ”

"Because, the meaning of most rice is the same, no matter how precious rice is, it may change in taste, but after all, it exists to fill the stomach."

"Miss Joselo is a classical aristocrat, and when it comes to the well-known nobles of antiquity, people will not have stereotypes such as serious, old-fashioned, and the most classic 'glory worship'."

"Although this image may be distorted by the changing times, the aristocracy's pursuit of fame has never changed, regardless of the era."

"At least after much inquiry, I have never heard of a scandal about the Joselo family, and people's impressions of it are all described in the best adjectives."

"Doesn't that mean they care a lot about their reputation and like to run it?"

"But what does that have to do with you?" Card still didn't get it.

"Of course it matters, isn't my behavior violating the interests of that eldest lady, and even her reputation has been violated." Rolley whispered, "In the absence of the ability to confront her head-on, in order to prevent my actions from causing her to pour out her anger on me, should I please her, and give her some gifts she likes, so that she will not lose her temper so much?" ”

"So, my 'story of working hard for her' is a gift to please her."

Commoners were admitted to the Royal Academy through their own efforts, and it was a matter worthy of being published in the newspapers.

The Royal Academy admits about four or five hundred new students every year, but among them, there may be only a dozen or even a few commoner students, and the rest are all famous nobles or merchant families from all over the world.

Only families with wealthy economic conditions will have the money to buy extra paper and pens for their children to read and write, so that they do not have to squeeze their free time to make ends meet, and can delve into the problems of books.

For an ordinary family, being admitted to an ordinary academy is something that can be blown for a lifetime, and the Royal Academy ....... That's something that the eighteen generations of ancestors didn't dare to think about when they smoked together.

In short, civilians can be admitted to the Royal Academy of Glenia, and they are basically genius teenagers who are unique in ten thousand.

"'The disaster of that year affected everyone, and he will never forget the sight of me sitting in a chair on the side of the road, his face full of exhaustion from helping those who were helpless. At that moment he was thinking that if other people asked him for help, he would also be like me and reach out to everyone. So he started to aim for this, and worked hard to make achievements, improve himself, and eventually become a person who can serve everyone. ’”

Carder summed up his story passionately and succinctly, and after repeating it from a different perspective, he turned his head again.

"You said she'd like it, but when I brought me in, didn't you think I'd be so happy?"

Luo Lai raised his forehead slightly: "Because, you are a student, not a superior, you have not experienced the feeling of leading others, and the biggest role under your command is just a pet cat that only serves as a signboard for your store." ”

After a pause, he continued, "Why would she be happy? It's not that I think of Miss Joselo as my senior, or that I follow her, but that I always put her before me, and that when everyone talks about my grades in the future, everyone will not forget her presence. ”

"If one day I do something amazing, people will be amazed at me and they won't forget to say something like 'Miss Joselo has such a good eye'."

"So you understand? I don't matter, the important thing is that I can bring her the praise of her peers in her social circle, and continue to maintain their superior style, which is what she cares about and aspires to. ”

"This ......"

Kader looked at Rolley in amazement, and couldn't help but exclaim.

"You're really good, you can think of everything."

In fact, he always knew that Luo Lai was very smart, could get along well with everyone, and could get the favor of his boss no matter where he worked, so that his salary far exceeded that of others, but he never thought that the other party could even figure out the thoughts of the great nobles so clearly.

However, for his praise, Luo Lai only shook his head: "It's not enough to just think about it, you have to do it." ”

"Do? Haven't you already been admitted......."

"No, that's in the past." "People at the top will like what I say, not just because of my words, but more importantly, because of 'I did it.'" ”

"Words are more effective only when they are blessed by examples."

"And now, I promise her that the practice is not yet complete."

He repeated what he had just told Lily and what he was going to do.

After Carder listened, his pupils dilated instantly, and his voice unconsciously raised: "Are you crazy?" That's what you can do?! ”

"It's been in the academy for hundreds of years, and there is only one person who can challenge it to succeed except the people who made it! And that person is the most famous person in the entire history of mankind!! ”

"Why would you want to commit to such an almost impossible thing!" Card was in a hurry, very anxious, anxious and incoherent, "You, you really are....... I should have grabbed you at the beginning, and I should have tore up your letter. ”

"If you don't write that letter, with your ability, no matter which direction you are engaged in in the future, your achievements will definitely not be small, and even if you can't compare to the historic Joselo, you will be a well-known figure, but you actually ......"

Luo Lai glanced at him: "That's not a dangerous thing, is it?" There are countless people who have challenged it for hundreds of years, and I haven't heard of anyone seriously injured or something, right? ”

"Is the point about the injury? The point is that it is impossible to complete! "You promised, but you couldn't do it, Miss Joselo will be angry, and recount the old scores." ”

"When the time comes, if you are made out of school by her, you will not be able to live in a big house in the future, and you will have to go back to the slums, and you will be crammed into small cells like prison cells with those stinking guys, and you will lose your freedom and future forever - do you want to do this?!"

"Cell....... Rolley smiled suddenly, "Isn't the reason why I did this just to get out?" ”

He closed the book and stared at Card.

"You think that our admission to the Royal Academy and leaving the civilian area is the first step in the cage, but in fact....... Aren't we still in there now? ”

Card froze, but Rolley ignored him and continued to whisper.

"Have you noticed that in the Academy, although we are commoners, we have not encountered too many nobles who have come to bully us, do you know why?"

"Huh?" Card couldn't quite keep up with Rolley's leaping mind.

Luo Lai smiled and said, "You've been to the Monster Garden, haven't you?" There are precious and beautiful monsters brought from all over the world. ”

"When watching them, if someone behaves impolitely to them, such as throwing a small stone, he will immediately be stopped by others, and he will use his bad example to educate others not to be as unqualified as him, and this is why, because if you get hurt, you will lose money, but that's not the point, the point is that you will be blamed and laughed at by other people, and it is difficult for anyone with self-esteem to bear the strange eyes of the public."

When he said this, Kad suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

He had never considered such a problem before, he felt that other noble classmates were friendly to them because of the good education and teaching of the aristocracy, and everyone was of high quality, but if you think about it carefully, there seemed to be a lot of fights between noble classmates because of a trivial matter, and there were countless acts of being ridiculed because of their low title.

But they, the civilians, have not experienced this.

He hadn't thought about it before, and he hadn't even cared about it, but now that he was a little bit older, he understood.

It's not that the classmates are well-educated, there are not so many good people in the world, but the extravagant life is more likely to breed mentally abnormal scum.

The real truth is that they don't deserve it.

They're pets, they're strange toys, and if someone tries to break them, others will laugh at them, "You're bullying rookies to find superiority?" Do those of us who are naturally noble need to do that? What a shame on our aristocracy".

Classmates don't bully them, not because their efforts deserve to be praised, appreciated, and recognized, but because classmates can't accept other people's ridicule of them.

Aristocrats, but they all care about fame!

It's like humans do with people who deceive monsters.

- We are noble human beings, with excellent qualities such as conscience, wisdom, and morality, and bullying a creature who does not even have wisdom is not in line with our "nobility", so we can't do that, and you should be laughed at.

How do humans treat monsters?

Pleasing me is all you have to do.

As for what the monsters are thinking......

Does that matter to humans?

I laugh at them because they are morally corrupt, but morality is something that only belongs to us human beings, you don't think that if I treat you well, you can stand with me, right?

Like those unanswered letters sent by Rolley.

It's not that he doesn't reply, it's that he doesn't even have the qualifications to talk to "noble".

They couldn't even see him.

At this moment, Card only felt that he had some difficulty even breathing.

Rolley reached out and patted him on the back to help him smooth out, and said.

"Miss Joselo is the top nobleman, and the difficult problem for most people has fallen into their hands and solved it, and the other party will only think, 'This is the way it should be, after all, they are big nobles'. Only the most difficult things to get will be looked at by them, and they will be in line with the temperament of the superior - so I can only choose this. ”

"But...... That's too hard, and there's only one one that has succeeded in hundreds of years. Card let out a long sigh.

Rolley only smiled: "Freedom is a luxury, and it can only be obtained by biting the iron chain with your teeth, although the pain it brings will be uncommensurate." ”

"If it had been, I wouldn't mind continuing to endure the status quo and maintain a stable life, because I knew full well that what I had was not enough to make me a trendsetter."

Rollai's gaze drifted away, drifting out the window, looking at the sky, as if looking at a different world.

"There, the rules have almost been nailed, no matter how hard a person tries, without the help of other special conditions, the ceiling of the ordinary person is almost completely fixed, and after a certain extent, it cannot be further improved, because the power of the individual is too small to become absolute, and the society composed of people is too complex."

"But now, it's different."

He looked into his hand and clenched his fist hard.

"The force brought by extraordinary power is simple and direct, and under absolute power, it can smash everything."

"The shackles of identity, the chains of freedom, the crown of power..... Everything, everything. ”

You can do it all!

All that was needed was some hard work and firm belief to which he was accustomed, as well as a pile of pain and difficulties that might be unbearable.

This is difficult, but he feels that what will make him even more sad is the back of those cherished people and things that disappear in front of his eyes because of his various powerlessness, and the humble and insignificant self under the weight of the social tide.

"It's not easy to have a chance to break free from the chains."

Rolley looked back and smiled softly.

"I'm going to have to hold on tightly, sharpen my claws, and go down through gritted teeth."

"Don't look back."

Looking up in a daze, Card looked at the boy in front of him.

His expression was still as calm as he was familiar with, but the light contained in those black eyes was so unfamiliar, like the pale golden majesty that even the always noisy grassland had to be quiet when a lion raised its head.

How fierce, how brave, I am afraid that even the sun on the edge of the sky will hang its head high to this dazzling light.
