The Ministry of Magic of the Varkx Academy, the top floor of an archmage tower.

At this moment, all the high-ranking members of the entire academy gathered here, including men and women, young and old, magicians in robes and staffs, and warriors in strong suits and carrying blades.

But at this moment, everyone was frowning and looking at a document on the table. The content of the material is about a teenager named McFarlane.

In the silence, an old magician sitting in the first place, wearing a moon-white robe, with snow-white hair and beard, spoke first: "This prince of the Xiuth Empire named McFarlane is indeed very good, at the age of only fifteen, he has reached the realm of an eighth-level magic apprentice and a ninth-level trainee warrior. ”

"Hmph, the Xiusi Empire sent such a kid over, nominally to exchange and learn, but in fact it was not to show off how good their younger generation was. The one who took over was a big man in a gray suit with a bearded face.

"But," a young female magician beside the big man spoke, "This His Royal Highness Prince Macfarlane has already defeated all the outstanding students of the Royal Demon Martial Academy in the Imperial Capital......, this is an undoubted fact!

Then it shows that the younger generation of the Miro Empire is completely inferior to the Xiusi Empire, and people send a prince at random, so that the elites of the two oldest colleges in the Miro Empire are all closed.

Everyone present understood this deeply, but no one said it.

"I heard that Emperor Bixia has passed down a secret decree, and among all the students of the academy, as long as anyone defeats this His Royal Highness Macmillan, he will be immediately awarded the title of viscount and enjoy a fief of five hundred li. A middle-aged mage said, "We should tell the students this news, and under the heavy reward, these little rabbit cubs will fight hard with His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"I think let's let the winner of the academy competition at the end of the month fight against that highness. The young sorceress said.

"Of course," the old magician with the snow-white beard spoke, "before the academy competition, arrange for His Highness to live in the academy." However, I am still worried about whether the cadets in the academy can be the opponents of His Highness Macmillan. ”

For a moment, the room fell silent for a long time again.

After lunch, Dick leisurely walked out of the cafeteria and headed for his dorm, where the afternoon should be time for himself to meditate and exercise his magic powers.

I greeted a student who knew him well, and through the floors of the building, I saw that my dormitory was in front of me.

But suddenly, out of the corner of Dick's eye, he caught a glimpse of a figure, a figure that did not belong to this academy, a figure that seemed familiar.

It was a tall and handsome young man, with long blond hair, blue eyes like the sea, and a lazy smile on the corner of his mouth. He wore a sleeveless shirt on the upper half of his body, revealing the strong muscles of his arms. For the lower body, wear loose trousers for mobility.

Before Dick could remember who the familiar person in front of him was, the man had already seen Dick, and after being obviously stunned for a moment, he suddenly exclaimed, "Dick!

The man walked up to Dick with a shocked face and grabbed Dick's shoulders with both hands: "Dick Fahn, it's really you!

"Are you...... McFarland?" Dick began, the blurred image in his mind becoming clearer, and Zuihou overlapped with the boy in front of him.

Dick's heart jumped suddenly, grabbed McFarlane's arm and said, "Hurry up, this is not the place to talk, go to my dorm!"

"Dick, can you tell me what's going on?weishenme, the prince of the Faun Empire, who died eight years ago, will suddenly appear at the Valkx Academy in the Miro Empire?" asked McMillan as soon as he entered the door.

"Shhhhhh

"Okay, I'll shut up, but you'll have to give me a good explanation," McFarlane said slowly, staring at his childhood friend in front of him, "Eight years ago, Emperor Bixia of the Faun Empire, Empress Bixia, and His Royal Highness Crown Prince Dick were killed by the attacking orc army in the fortress of Barak patrolling the southern border of the Empire. At least that's what I got. ”

"And then?" Dick also stared at McFarlane quietly.

And then ...... And then what?" McFarlane wondered.

Then, in the event that the emperor and the crown prince died at the same time, the throne was succeeded by His Royal Highness Prince Jax, the younger brother of the emperor Bixia. Dick said coldly.

McFarland thought for a moment, and then said in disbelief: "You mean to say that His Royal Highness Prince Jax killed his brother and seized the throne!"

"If there is a shaman in the orc army who can release the dark forbidden spell, then the death of my father may really be an accident. Dick was still calm.

"Orc shaman, dark forbidden spell, how is it possible?"

"But that's the case, my father and mother died under the Dark Forbidden Curse, the Eternal Night," Dick said with a gloomy look in his eyes, "Although I escaped with the protection of a paladin, I was also affected by the curse attached to this terrible forbidden curse, and I have not been able to increase my magic power for eight years. ”

McFarlane was dumbfounded.

At this moment, Dick's cold voice brought his consciousness back to reality: "So, Dear Highness Macfarlane, I have told you everything you want to know, and then, what are you going to do next?"

McFarlane came back to his senses, Dick's cold eyes and emotionless words made him understand what he meant, and he looked up, his dark blue eyes and Dick's cold black eyes silently staring at each other.

Time has lost its meaning in absolute silence, as if only a moment has passed, and then as if a long time has passed.

McFarlane finally looked away and smiled wryly: "Dick, you are one of my few friends, really, I was sad for a long time when I learned of your death from my father......

"......," Dick was silent.

McFarlane said resolutely: "I will prove to you ...... by action"

"Gods, I, Macfarland Hughes, swear in the name of the whole family that I will never confide in anyone anything about Dick Fahn without permission, and if I disobey it, the gods will forsake him and go to hell forever!"

The coldness in Dick's eyes finally dissipated, and he hurriedly said, "Enough, McFarlane, ...... now"

"I understand your situation," McFarlane smiled, "my friend, there is nothing wrong with what you have done, and I would not trust anyone easily if it were to be my situation in yours." ”

"I'm so lucky to have you as a friend. Dick finally smiled, "By the way, my friend, why did you come to the Valquez Academy in the Miro Empire?"

"It's a long story, I'm here to smash the field......"

Time flies by in the conversation, and in the blink of an eye, it is already sunset.

McFarlane smiled and said: "Anyway, I also came to the Miro Empire with the purpose of accumulating actual combat experience, it doesn't matter if I win or lose, but if I really want to lose, I also hope to lose in your hands, you were the most powerful one in the fight when you were a child!"

"Okay, just wait and see me knock you out of the ring. ”

"I'm waiting for that day. As he spoke, McFarlane turned away. It's not too early, and according to Macfarlane, if he doesn't go back, the two dragon knights who escorted him to the Miro Empire will have to wipe out the entire academy.

Seeing McFarlane's figure leave, Dick suddenly said coldly: "Dimihera, I want to win this game!"

But seeing a thick black mist gushing out of Dick's body, it had changed into a human form in a blink of an eye, and two blood-red eyes stared at Dick up and down: "Weishenme?

"No, I'm for that viscount title and fief. In the course of an afternoon of chatting, McFarlane told Dick in a semi-ostentatious tone about the reward for defeating himself.

"Greed, the greatest original sin of your humanity!" said Dimichra as she floated around the room.

"Whatever you think, I'm going to win!" said Dick in an unmistakable tone.

"But I'm going to help you?"

"Doesn't there be a clause in the contract that says you're going to help me become a strong man?" Dick said.

"I mean to help you become a strong person, so that you can cultivate more efficiently, so that you can give me more liliang and help me recover my strength faster. ”

"You!" Dick froze, "a contract is a contract, no matter what, since it says so, you have to help me, there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world!"

"Okay, okay, let's see," Dimhera said helplessly, "It's not difficult for you to get a good ranking in your academy's competition now, but it's hard to win or even defeat that guy named McFarlane." ”

Di Mihra continued: "Let's see if there is anything that can be improved in your strength, whether it is fighting qi or magic, the accumulation of liliang is not a trick to speak of......"

"Who said no, from today onwards, you are not allowed to absorb my liliang, I will make it up to you later. Dick interrupted.

"Then you'll have to add some interest," the red light in Dimhera's eyes grew even brighter.

"You ......"

For the next three hours, a human and a demon engaged in a heated debate over a loan, until it was dark, and Dick paid ten percent interest in exchange for the next few days of free cultivation.

"Very good, very good," Di Mihera was obviously satisfied, "Let's continue the topic just now, Liliang's cultivation is not tricky, then all we can do is to close the gap with the opponent's strength with skill." ”

"I'll be instructing you in the next few days, but I don't think the effect will be great. Demons fight in a very different way than humans, and the fighting techniques we use may not necessarily work for you. ”

"Then the only thing left is magic, boy, how do you want me to say it, there are not many people with dual-line magic talents, and you are actually a magic apprentice of the space-time and space dual-system, do you want to be happy or sad about this?"

"There is no doubt that the liliang of time and space is above all the elements, but it is precisely because of their power that it is far more difficult to manipulate time and space than to manipulate the elements. ”

Dick said unexpectedly: "I know all this, I don't need you to remind me again and again, what I want is a solution." ”

"You ought to be glad you signed a pact with me," Dimhera fluttered up and down the room excitedly, ignoring someone's bad mood. "Because, since you have signed a contract with the demon, you can also borrow some of the demon's abilities, such as the manipulation of the dark element. ”

"You're saying I can use dark magic by contract?" Dick asked.

"Yes. ”

Seeing that Dimihra admitted this, even with Dick's self-control, his eyes could not help but sparkle with excitement.

"Moreover, although there are few space-time systems you can control, you can use them to assist the elemental system liliang."

"What do you mean?" asked Dick.

"Do you know the Great Prophecy of the Super Forbidden Spell of Divine Magic? That is the result of the time system magic Liliang assists the light system. ”

"You mean, let me use the magic of the space-time auxiliary element system Liliang to create more powerful magic?"

"That's right, for example, curse magic such as aging and sluggishness in dark magic can be combined with time magic to exert even more power. "But all I can do is be a reminder, and more needs to be explored by yourself." ”

In the next few days, Kane, Elle and other people familiar with Dick in the academy discovered that Dick had mysteriously disappeared at all times except for eating and sleeping and returning to the academy, but fortunately, the whole of June was the time for the students to carry out internship tasks, so his disappearance did not attract too many people's attention.

The only person in the entire academy who knew anything about Dick's whereabouts was his future "rival" McFarlane.

In the reckless primeval jungle of the Gulitius Mountains, Dick came here every day to practice and magic, in order to be able to defeat opponents with a higher level than himself, in addition to practicing frantically every day to accumulate magic and fighting energy, it was according to what Dimihera said to him that day, trying to use time and space magic to assist dark magic.

At the same time, Dimihera also taught him some of the demon clan's fighting methods, although most of them were not suitable for human use, but there were always some relatively simple ones that he integrated into his swordsmanship.

The sun rises and the moon sinks, and in these few days of Zuihou in June, Dick arranged an almost crazy cultivation jihua for himself, perhaps because of this crazy energy, of course, it may also be because of the lack of a vampire like Dimihera. Two days before the Academy's Grand Competition, his magic and fighting spirit finally made a breakthrough, and he was promoted to the sixth level of magic apprentice and trainee samurai.
