It's a good thing to get rid of old suspicions.

Unfortunately, there are always things that are unexpected. At the conference on Castle in the Sky, some people gave "original" opinions.

As it happened, Glori had just pushed the door open and entered the conference room. This conference room is in the hotel where Glori and his friends were staying before. On the ground floor, the garden was emptied, but the scent of flowers remained.

Now, when breathing, someone can still breathe fragrance!

"That city, under the influence of the magic of Bryson, the Supreme King of Order, has been transformed into a paradise overrun by monsters and the undead. If we want to break in, we have to find someone to find a good way around. Or, just find a few guys who trade their lives for money. A nobleman sitting on a wooden bench on the periphery said.

"Yes, it's best to leave this kind of errand to the Rocky Warband. Because, they've been looking for Ranges. I think they're good at that kind of thing. Another nobleman, who was in an important seat, snorted.

"I'd love to take the lead, but the people who are talking about it, should they do something? I mean, everybody's responsible. "Glori has a little more momentum than before. He pointed to the nobleman who had just let out a snort.

The nobleman, who snorted, sat opposite Glori, that is, directly to the west. Judging by the way he was dressed, Glori thought he was from the Snow King's Order, because the nobleman was wearing a silver armor with the insignia of a white horse, a white cloak, and a broadsword on his back.

"You're the blue star?" said the snorting nobleman.

"Don't listen to him, and don't take it seriously. Some people just feel that they are superior to others, or they want to be in the limelight. ”

The person who speaks seems to be well-behaved. But in Glori's opinion, it's a pity. The man who spoke, seated to the left of the nobleman who had just snorted, was also dressed in silver armor with the emblem of a white horse, and wore a white cloak, except that he carried a large sword on his back.

Seeing the meeting so unpleasant, Glori almost forgot about the polite greetings. Looking at the person who had just spoken in a proper manner, after pulling out the wooden bench, he simply sat down. He thought to himself, "It's really strange to meet a pale-skinned person. Maybe it's because of the magic of the ice attribute. ”

"I can see that you are the blue star, a man who likes to wear blue and white armor. Below is ......" The person who spoke in a proper manner wanted to give a good introduction, but was interrupted.

"Glori, you need to get to know someone who will help you speak. He is the Duke of Norton. "Xavier doesn't want a meeting to end because someone finds fault. Moreover, he didn't want to postpone the exploration of Sky City - the legions of the Demon Dragon Empire were heading here!

"Duke Norton?"

Glori didn't react for a moment. A while ago, I had been dealing with Wooder from time to time, and Wooder, Duke of Norton, those words kept popping through Glori's mind. So, Glori was stunned.

"Nicknamed 'Snow King'. Of course, there are also people who say that I am 'Snow Lord'. Kenneth Norton, King Norton's younger brother and Wolfer's uncle. And the person who has a 'unique' opinion about you just now is the president of the Wizards' Guild, a guy you must respect. ”

Kenneth explained. Although he didn't get up, he looked serious. This old guy who doesn't like to grow a beard really impressed Glori.

Once, Glori had heard some rumors about Kenneth "Snow Lord": a guy with a handsome appearance who fascinated many women. During the Norton Kingdom, Kenneth was the Prince of Norton, but he had no real power, not even as good as a Norton Earl, and after Veron took the Norton Kingdom, he became a duke of Alex and had actual power. Among them, what makes Glorie care is that Kenneth "Snow Lord" is a fair aristocrat.

Therefore, the two nobles with the white horse emblem in front of them have a much higher status than the "wolf head" Hausman of the Snow King Knights. In terms of professional titles, although the president of the Magician Association is a high-level magician, he is between a high-level magician and a great magician in terms of strength (the great magician, also known as the master-level magician);

Then take out the proper courtesy. At the very least, you can't delay the big thing in front of you because of some small things. Glori was silent for a moment before he spoke, "Some people say you're as handsome as snow. As far as I know, 'Snow Jue' is not in vain. ”

"Yes, handsome as snow, that's why people gave me nicknames. I like it, though. But Mr. Short, the president of the Magicians' Guild on my right, doesn't like to be nicknamed casually, including 'three kinds of magic' (three kinds of magic, practiced at the same time, without delaying the growth of one of them). I remember some of the disgusting things he did. That day, I invited him to dinner, only to pour the wine on the floor because I had said the wrong thing. And, that's my wine glass. ”

Kenneth said unhurriedly, occasionally pulling out a smile. At the same time, he really did as he said, and received an elbow blow.

"Duke, you deserve it. I wanted to use some strength, but I'm afraid you're not going to be able to stand it. We're not young anymore. With that, Mr. Short got up. First, he bowed to Xavier, who was sitting at the North End.

Mr. Short said, "Lord Xavier, please allow me to offend. I don't like people calling my name, especially young people. So, Blue Star, call me Mr. Short. ”

"Alright then, Mr. Short. Are you going to enter Sky City with us?" However, Glori didn't want to ask, or even talk.

Glori knew that the Short family's fortune was not so glamorous. Originally, the Wizards Association originated from the Norton Kingdom in the Age of the Gods, and was supposed to be the hereditary president of the Ivan clan. Later, the Ivan clan was robbed of the Wizards' Guild by the Short family in some way. To put it bluntly, the Ivan clan and the Short clan have an indelible family feud. Micro book bar

The so-called Short clan, as if in the past thousand years, has been synonymous with sinisterness. Because, in the Short clan, the people who have inherited the position of president of the Magician Association for generations are more insidious and greedy for power.

It's like, it's an effect that has to be dealt with.

Originally, the Short clan had exhausted their intrigues by snatching the Wizards' Guild from the Ivan clan, and now the Short clan had to be careful to prevent the other party from robbing the Wizards' Guild. Over time, the Short clan became darker and darker. Because of calculating others, but every step of the way is frightened, causing the clan to live in fear, this is really amazing.

Even Beech Ivan, whom Hausman killed, had tried to find a way to restore the glory of the Ivan clan. Time has indeed buried some things, but it has also preserved some things that cannot be replaced.

There is such a joke that is not funny at all, and it has been kept in the folk.

It is said that "as a magician, the best way to get ahead is to get a certificate of honor from the Wizards' Guild." The funny thing is that even if the magicians enter the hall of glory of the Wizards Guild, they will never be able to raise their heads in front of the Short clan. In the words of one president, if you want to get it, you have to pay a price. ”

The reputation of the Short clan does stink enough. However, no one can deny the capabilities of the Short clan. It is not enough to become the president of the Magician Association, but you must be responsible for the operation of the entire association. If you don't have a certain ability, you really can't have a magician association, let alone serve as the president.

So, there are also some stories about the decay of the Norton Kingdom. Still, Glori didn't want to think about things that weren't helpful. In order to avoid unnecessary troubles in the future, just know what the people around you do.

It seems that Mr. Short can see through people's hearts. "It doesn't help to think too much," he said. City in the sky, I won't enter. However, I will take some people with me to fend off the legions of the Empire. ”

A good answer, which should come from Mr. Short's heart. Because Glori saw a hint of disgust in Mr. Short's face: a man who did not like to be with him, found another place where he could use his skills.

When Mr. Short sat down, so did Glori. He had long been accustomed to Lord Xavier's care, so Glori did not deliberately say hello to Lord Xavier.

"Lord Xavier, have you arranged everything with them?"

Glori is humble. In fact, Glori has some points of his own, especially on staffing. However, Glori knows that he is young and must be good at listening to the elders. Now, he clutched the wooden cup in his hands and looked at Xavier cautiously.

Lord Xavier nodded at Glori. Later, he looked at Evan, who was sitting to the left of Glorry, and then at Susan, who had just come in from Simon, Perry, and Virgil, the new members of the Knights of Merit. He invited those who came in later to sit on a long stone bench in the garden before taking a deep breath for the speech.

"Look, we're all around a long table. However, we all know that we come from various places that originally belonged to the kingdom of Alex. Now, there is a threat to the ground beneath our feet. Who would have thought that one day we would lose the last of our land and dignity because we were fighting for ourselves. ”

Looking at the people sitting around the long table, there was indeed some excitement, and Xavier hammered the rock floor several times with the staff he held in his right hand. He took his gaze away from Glori, then on the others, and finally on Glori.

"I think the blue star in front of me should be remembered for the actions of the Orderly, such as some things that are unbearable to look at. However, even in the face of the sky god in the belly of the sky god, don't we dare to go there? It is the place where the gods stand, and it is also the place where we have to find hope! We fear the gods, but we must not compromise because of difficulties!"

"What are you waiting for? If we let our young men charge forward and enter the Sky City as vanguards, will we, the elders, hold up the scene? ”

When Lord Xavier's voice fell, the high-pitched voices were endless.

"Count me in!"

"Count me in!"

......

"If it's not too much, then add me, right?"

The last person to speak was none other than "Snow Jue". Kenneth didn't want to stay in the middle of the team, or stay in the receiving team, or with Mr. Short, the president of the Wizards' Guild. Kenneth couldn't stand it if someone was talking about how someone was doing because he was free.

Glori really didn't want to watch the elders in front of him show their heroism in front of the juniors. Because, as a young man, you have to let everything have justice.

Glori got up and said, "There's got to be me, too." ”
