There is a long marble road outside the gate of the Tower of Arrogance, which extends until the stone steps 100 meters away, on the stone steps, you can clearly see the brilliant lights of the imperial capital at night, the gorgeous and colorful city shows its unique prosperity, the street lamps set up on both sides of the criss-crossing streets, the gorgeous lamps in the shop windows at the edge of the street, the golden lights in the various aristocratic courtyards and manor castles, constitute the beautiful night scene of the imperial capital under the reflection of each other, Weiyang Lake is like a flawless black pearl in this silent night, The closer to Weiyang Lake, the more dense and bright the lights are, and the more they can highlight the prosperity and glory of the imperial capital.Looking up at the royal city in the sky, under the light veil-like clouds in the night, revealing a hazy light, on that royal city, several pillars of light shot out and rose into the sky, and when the royal eagle vulture knight passed through the lamppost in the night sky, it would be shocking, and in the distant sky, there would occasionally be a loud and high-pitched eagle chirping, in the heart of every knight of the Green Empire, there was a dream that belonged to the Royal Knights.And I had just walked down the stairs from the side door at this time, and even just saw Senior Ivan waiting at the edge of the stone pillar at the door, I was a little apprehensive in my heart, thinking that this was another premeditated siege, the third premeditated siege after the failure of the last siege at the entrance of the fourth floor of the research institute, and the defeat of the team battle launched after the provocation in the library of the Royal Academy of Magic.The four-series stone drum totem in the magic belt pack has been placed within my reach, the Shura battle axe and the oil lamp that can trigger the wind wrath totem are already hanging on my waist, and the Yerkis scholars have left the Tower of Pride one step ahead of me, I think this time they may be more prepared, just when I hesitated a little in my heart, "Click!

”The high heels made a crisp and pleasant sound on the smooth mirror-like marble floor, and the slender and graceful figure walked through the marble pillars one by one, walking towards the tower of arrogance with a brisk rhythm, without even looking at her face, I could clearly tell from the sound of walking that it was Kige, I didn't expect her to be busy in the research institute until so late, Kige is usually used to walking the main spiral staircase in the front of the hall inside the Tower of Pride, passing through the magic material trading hall on the first floor, and then leaving through the main entrance of the Tower of Pride.When I walked out of the gate of the Tower of Pride, it happened that Qige was walking on the main road outside the Tower of Pride, and the maid Takama, who had the blood of a lizard and had a fiery figure, was wearing a tight leather armor, and the slave collar around her neck reflected the metallic color under the lantern in her hand, and she seemed to walk silently like a cat, and her cold eyes gave people a faint sense of oppression.At this time, Ivan, who was standing on the edge of the marble pillar, unexpectedly straightened the collar of his magic robe a little nervously, stood up straight and slowly walked out of the shadows, and walked towards Kige."
Mentor Kige!"
It seems that only in front of the magic instructor of the Royal Academy of Magic will Ivan look more like a student in the Academy of Magic, a young man who has just passed the rite of passage, he has a gentle aristocratic temperament, a slightly handsome and sunny face, and a harmless smile of humans and animals."
Oh, Ivan?"
Kig stopped, and the melodious voice came out of her mouth, full of seductive flavor like the song of the Sirens in the Sea of Mist.Ivan made his voice as calm and confident as possible, and then said in one breath: "Can you give me a few minutes?"
I'd like to talk to you. ”He seemed to be under tremendous pressure when he faced Qige.Some of the pressure came from Kig himself, some of the pressure came from the powerful family behind Kige, and some of the pressure came from the Welsh prince of the Grimm Empire.In front of Qige, Ivan humbly and slightly humbly bowed slightly to Qige with aristocratic etiquette.In the Grimm Empire, the status of men has always been much higher than that of women, and because of the wars in the border wilderness, a large number of young people in the Grimm Empire will go to the front line every year, resulting in an unbalanced ratio of men and women in the whole country, and the majority of men and girls and the imperial marriage law have led to the decline of women's status again, so in this case, even if the status of each other is not equal, there are few aristocratic men who salute women.A magician like Ivan, who has entered the Royal Academy of Magic, can be said to have an incomparably bright and smooth path in the future, and he really doesn't need to use such etiquette with Qige now, even if Qige is the mentor of the academy, it really doesn't have to be like this.If it weren't for the unusually quiet night, I wouldn't have been able to hear the conversation between them, let alone see what the look on Kige's face was like at this time.However, it was obvious that Qige was in high spirits tonight, at least in a good mood, so he replied very cheerfully: "Okay, what do you have to do with me, and tell me about it!"
”I never thought that in front of people, Qige still has such a dignified side, like an evening primrose that only blooms under the moon.Ivan said to Kig in a sincere tone: "I want to follow you, become your assistant, and learn magic potions from you?"
”"Why?"
Kige's words were short, and he felt like he was in a hurry to go home.Obviously, Ivan didn't think that after Qige put down his identity and made a low-key humble request, he didn't agree to it for the first time, and he actually asked for the reason, and he was speechless for a while, and then he reacted, and said with a strong voice: "Isn't this reason enough as a student of the Royal Academy of Magic?"
”Qige's voice was a little ethereal, and she said impatiently: "As far as I know, you are a member of the Ming Society in the Academy, and you are also working as a magician's assistant here at the Magic Research Institute, do you usually have the remaining free time to study magic potions with me?"
”Ivan said to Kig, "I want to be your magician's assistant at the Academy of Magic. ”It turned out that he wanted to rob me of my job, and I secretly felt funny in my heart, I didn't expect that someone would come to the door to be abused and be an assistant to Qige, aren't you afraid of the frequent accidents in those magic experiments?"
Giggles, you can't" Kig smiled softly, obviously thinking of the danger of her magic ink experiments, which were not suitable for Ivan to test for her.However, this sentence was made by her coquettish smile, as if it was a denial that Ivan had a problem with his personal ability, and it was not for the inapplicability of the ink experiment."
Why, Mr.
Kige?"
Being told no by a charming beauty made Ivan's tone a little irritable, and he encountered obviously too few setbacks for a seedling who grew up in a greenhouse.Fortunately, Qige put away his smile and said calmly, "I don't want to be approached by those old guys in the Magic Guild Arbitration Center because you were injured in my magic experiment!"
”Kig's tone seemed to be admonishing a wayward child, which made Ivan very angry, so he went on to ask Kig, "I promise you that I will do better than Gigya."
I have the same position for him as you do, and I hate this redneck from the North. ”There were rumors in the research institute that Kig called me to her lab because she had some personal vendetta with me, and then deliberately punished me slightly, and Ivan believed this reason.He scolded me for being a redneck from the North, which made my heart burn, and I wanted to rush out and beat him, but this guy dared to scold me behind my back, and then I heard him say, "He's just a country kid from the North, if his enlightenment teacher wasn't Yerkes, he would never have been able to climb to the halls of the Academy in the Tower of Pride, and he was even as rude as those orcs." ”This kid really doesn't make sense!
I didn't care about anything else, I walked out of the gate of the Tower of Pride, but I didn't expect that the first to notice me was Takama, her golden pupils dilated in the dark night, and when she heard footsteps again, she contracted violently, obviously she had been vigilantly observing the changes in the situation around her, but when she saw that it was me, she quickly put her head to Qige's ear and whispered softly.I was careful enough to be a female warrior in the tropical jungle, but I still couldn't hear what she was saying to Kige, but at this time Kig looked at me with a playful look in his eyes, a hateful look of schadenfreude.And Ivan, who was standing opposite her, obviously didn't notice me, and still continued to belittle me, Ivan continued: "And I, I think I'm better than him, he is only a beginner who knows a little bit about drawing magic scrolls, and I'm a junior master recognized by the Grimm Magic Guild, so in my opinion, even if he receives a little pain in your laboratory, it is a rare learning opportunity for him" "Oh, so you think so?
”Seeing that I had come over, Kig had to interrupt Ivan's disparagement of me, and when she saw that success had aroused my anger, she raised a crooked and delicate eyebrow at me, and said casually to Ivan.I was speechless to see Qige, who was secretly smiling with his mouth covered, and the corners of the magic dress he was holding in both hands, turned around and walked quickly towards the stone steps, without a trace of hesitation, and after taking a few steps, he didn't forget to turn back to his maid and ask, "Takama, why don't you go?"
”I had a pact with Kig that we tried to avoid being together in front of people, but of course in Kige's lab, that was another matter.This is done to cover up that we are very familiar with each other, so that when we do something together, it is inevitable that there is some tacit understanding, and sometimes we can't help but make eye contact, so that after a long time, it is inevitable that some flaws will be revealed in front of people, so that people know our relationship, we don't want to mess with the Prince of Wales at this time, although he and Zig are also playmates who grew up together, and before there was no such relationship, they were also very close friends, but the Prince of Wales is now Kige's fiancé after all, And Qige has also become the quasi-princess of the royal family of the Green Empire, which is related to the face of the royal family, so we plan to find an appropriate time, which is also the most troublesome thing for me, I am not at all mentally prepared for how to withstand the wrath of an imperial prince.And now the person who really knows about my relationship is Uncle Chichidania, but he doesn't seem to know that I came to the imperial capital."
Senior Ivan, talking about others behind your back is not what a nobleman with good manners should do!"
I stepped forward and said word for word to Ivan.Seeing me coming up from behind, Ivan's face suddenly turned iron-blue, obviously he failed to convince Kige, which also made Ivan a little embarrassed, he stared at me coldly, a little guarded."
Don't think that in the research institute, with the Yerkes scholar protecting you, you can talk to me in this tone, after all, I am still your senior in the Royal Academy of Magic, and the Ming Society has not received your application form yet, don't you want to enter the Ming Society?"
When Ivan said this, he seemed to have some confidence all of a sudden, and he held his chest high."
Even if I apply, will you let me pass?"
I asked him with a sneer.He took two steps back slightly, then managed to calm himself, and then thought of what had happened to me in the Academy of Magic recently, and he was very proud, and then raised his chin high, raised his head high, and pointed his nostrils at me, "You are self-aware, but is there any other way you can do it?"
”Ivan then sneered at me and said, "Don't think that if you get close to Yerkes, everything will be fine, and now he is also in danger, let's think about how to solve the trouble between you and the Yerkes scholar, otherwise whether Yerkis can stay in the research institute this month is still two words!"
”It seems that the situation is more serious than what I have heard.Ivan obviously didn't have the kindness to tell me these things, he borrowed this information, and wanted to hit me hard: "Now the whole research institute is staring at you, and finally see how you end up, don't end up, and leave the side door of the research institute in a gloomy way, this is the saddest thing in life!"
”I groaned slightly, but didn't speak.Seeing that I didn't speak, Ivan seemed a little more vigorous, stood aside and said with a playful expression: "Magicians still have to rely on their brains after all, but it's not just a little stupid luck that they can make a smooth sail in the research institute, nor do they rely on an axe, four stone bullets dance in the air casually, you can become the strongest person in the academy, not to mention that you are just a water department." ”At this time, through Ivan's words, I suddenly thought that I still have the stone drum totem?
The so-called stone drum totem of the orc shaman, isn't it a secondary magic that is not even a first-level magic, this kind of low-cost magic skill can only be engraved on the stone drum, which is something that the orc shaman is willing to use, and the moonstone drum totem in my hand now is not engraved with the magic skill that the orc tribal shaman can master?
What would happen if I carved the Wind Swift Magic Pattern Circle on my Wind and Wave Leather Boots, combined with Acceleration or Lightweight?
At this moment, my mind was spinning rapidly, and I gradually had a clear idea.Then, looking at Ivan, who was still standing in place and sarcastically sarcastic me, showed a heartfelt smile."
Choke!"
With a bang, the "magic shield" scroll in Ivan's hand was quickly unfolded by him, and a thick eggshell covered his body.And I just smiled at him faster and turned away
