I'm really not a top magician

There lay a translucent snake.

After seeing the two people enter the stone gate, the snake died completely.

The connection between Phareus and the snake was instantly severed.

A smile appeared on his lips.

I feel a little bad today.

Chapter 17 Smiling Snake

The connection between Phareus and the snake was broken,

He then pulled a small magic communication device from his pocket.

Although he was not very opposed to the technology of modern society, as a pragmatist, Fareus still felt that this magic device was more practical than the so-called mobile phone in long-distance communication.

Soon a familiar female voice came from the other end of the device: "What's up?"

The woman's voice was very cold, and even revealed a hint of rejection all the time.

"Don't be so indifferent. After all, I am also working for the leader."

"Then I'm hanging up." The woman said impatiently.

"No, I'm just reporting the mission status to you."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the device, and the woman asked again, "How is Sajo Aige?"

"Very strong," Phareus replied cynically. "It cleverly dodged my two assassination attempts. The first time, it lured the goblin to attack, and then took the opportunity to kill my snake. Just now, it also used a trap to get rid of my snake."

The woman immediately became interested: "It's killed just like that, your snake is really weak."

"There's nothing I can do about it. After all, I'm just a weak magician."

"hehe."

The woman sneered; her provocation had no effect.

If it were someone else, they might really believe what Fareus said. After all, the magic he displayed - knowing snake language - was indeed a weak magic with little room for development compared to other magic.

However, as a colleague of Fareus, the woman knew very well that Fareus was very strong, very strong.

Not only is he the second most powerful Color Mage in the Clock Tower after Kenneth El-Melloi, but he was also a famous assassin in the bounty hunter organization.

Codename: Smiling Snake.

Although his resume is not very impressive, and he has not experienced any major events in his career as a bounty hunter, let alone any battles that people would talk about.

The rumors in the industry about the "Smiling Snake" are just a few simple sentences: anyone can kill the snake as long as they get close.

Only the leader of the legendary destroyed Assassin sect could have such top-notch assassination skills.

Although I don't like the gloomy Polerman, and I don't like his rude attitude towards the leader,

But the woman had to admit that Fareus was a very powerful assassin.

So when Fareus said that both assassination attempts on Aigo Sajo had failed, the woman was a little surprised.

Because everyone who has seen the Smiling Snake's tricks is dead.

Faraius noticed the woman's silence and immediately warmed up the atmosphere:

"Now that we've confirmed that Sajo Aika's strength is genuine, can I come back now? After all, it's quite dangerous here, and I'm a little scared."

"For matters like this, ask the chief."

"However, I have something I want to ask you."

"Oh, you actually ask me a question?"

"Since I've been sent here to test Sajo Aika's strength, then—"

Faleu paused, grinned, and said, "—Then can I kill her!"

"If you can get your hands on it."

"So decisive? That's unlike you."

"If you really succeeded in capturing Sajo Aige," the woman said indifferently, "it can only be said that she is not the right person. Since she is not suitable, just kill her."

"How ruthless." Phareus said, "As expected..."

beep-

Before Fareus could finish his words, the device communication was disconnected.

Fareus looked at the disconnected device in his hand, chuckled and shook his head: "What a noisy little brat."

Phareus put away the device,

Suddenly he stopped, turned around and said to the shadow behind him: "Eavesdropping is not a good habit, old butler."

Outside the window, there was heavy rain, thunder and lightning. The butler walked out slowly and cautiously from the shadows, holding a long sword-like ceremonial garment in his hand.

"Your pose is nice, but fighting is not about putting on airs." Fareus squinted his eyes and praised casually.

The old butler's hand holding the weapon couldn't stop shaking: "Why?"

He tried his best to control his trembling voice, but it was filled with fear. "Your voice is so loud that the whole corridor can hear it. If you want to communicate secretly, it's too obvious, isn't it, Professor Fareius?"

"Oh, your words are so strange." Fareus showed a venomous smile. "I did this on purpose. After all, this is the only way to ask you to die, right?"

The housekeeper's face darkened.

"Fortunately, I heard your conversation." The butler's body stopped shaking, and powerful magic burst out through the formal attire. "No matter what your purpose is, before you kill me, I will reveal your secret to the young lady!"

The magic of the two,

Collision!

……

Aika Satiao felt that Luna in front of her was actually a young and inexperienced person.

She herself didn't know much about this tunnel, and she was even nearly killed by the mechanism just now.

And still go in with a foolish heart,

She even said that it was really Sajo Aika who arranged the test for her?

At this moment, Aika Sajo really suggested that Luna go for a brain checkup.

See if there's any water in her brain.

But Luna is a suicidal person, but Shajo Aika is not.

In order to avoid the situation of being attacked by the mechanism after entering,

So, Aika Sajo took away everything she had on her.

A total of five bottles of Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid were taken out and used all at once.

If Mr. Kenneth saw this, he would probably drop his jaw in shock.

After all, the Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid consumes a lot of magic power, and magic power is equal to life force. Even Teacher Kenneth of the color position cannot afford to consume a Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid.

What's more, there are five of them.

The Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid is indeed fully functional and can also provide automatic defense, but its disadvantage is that it consumes too much magic power.

However, this shortcoming is definitely not a problem in the eyes of Aika Satiao.

After all, being able to use great source magic also allows Aika Shajo, a magic rookie, to have the capital to use powerful equipment like Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid.

"Ms. Sajo, aren't you being too cautious?"

Luna looked at Shatiao Aige who was surrounded by the five-moon spiritual marrow fluid, and her eyes twitched.

"It's because you don't know anything that I have to be so careful." Satiao Aige complained.

It's funny to say,

As the initiator of this commission, Luna knew nothing no matter what she was asked. As the heir to the family, she was completely unaware of even such a secret passage.

Sajo Aika really doubted that the previous head of the family was too irresponsible.

"I'm sorry." Luna kept apologizing with her head down.

Ever since she met Sajo Aika, she seemed to apologize more times in a day than she had in the past year.

It turns out that compared to real geniuses, I am still too young.

Aika Sajo is so cautious, she must have her reasons.

I don’t know when it started, but Luna has been unknowingly impressed by Aika Sajo’s talent and has become her complete fan.

But if Aika Sajo heard what Luna was really thinking, she would probably feel disillusioned.

I'm such a newbie in magic!

Why don't you always listen to me carefully!

After everything was ready, the two pushed open the stone door and entered.

For a moment, shadows shifted, and the flickering firelight illuminated the stone slabs beneath their feet, revealing pairs of granite pillars on either side, stretching into the darkness beyond. The deceased, generations past, sat on stone thrones between the pillars, their backs to the wall, their sarcophagi resting behind them.

Each sarcophagus is engraved with a name: Bedivere, Gawain, Geraint, Gareth...

There are many Knights of the Round Table that Aika Sajo knows.

There were also many knights whose names she didn't recognize.

"This is the crypt of the Knights of the Round Table," Luna explained.

"Really?"

"It's genuine." Luna assured her, hugging her ample breasts. "This is one of my family's most valuable assets."

Although she was very interested in the giant thing that was thirty centimeters in front of the other person's chest, out of courtesy, Sajo Aika still withdrew her gaze and turned to look at the surrounding sarcophagi: "Who has been here before?"

"No...no." Luna scratched her head awkwardly. "My father has never brought me here before. This is my first time here."

"Then how do you know?" Sajo Aika asked curiously.

"Isn't it obvious?"

"..."

The corner of Sajo Aika's eye twitched, and she suddenly felt that she had asked an idiotic question.

She quickly changed the subject and said, "Since there's no one here, why don't you ask me what your purpose is?"

"You actually found out." Luna's eyes revealed a look of surprise, but she still answered frankly, "How did you find out?"

“I knew it from the beginning.”

Shatiao Aige felt tired from walking, so he found a stone coffin to sit down.

"Miss Shatiao, it's not a good idea to be on someone else's sarcophagus, right?"

"What are you afraid of? We respect the dead but not ghosts and gods. Besides, he can't jump out of the coffin and hit me." Shatiao Aige paused, "Where were we just now?"

"You knew it from the beginning."

"Yes, that's right," said Sajo Aika. "When I asked you why you wanted me to join, your answers were all evasive, focusing instead on your own difficulties. You were hoping to use sympathy to get me to join, weren't you?"

"As expected of Sajo Aika, you're truly amazing." Luna smiled in self-abasement, "Please forgive me for hiding the truth from you, because I really couldn't believe you at the time, but I can tell you now."

"why?"

Sajo Aika was curious.

Although she knew from the beginning that Luna was hiding something, it did not affect her judgment at the time. After all, who doesn't have a secret?

But the current situation seems a little bad. If she doesn't ask clearly, Sajo Aika is afraid that she will lose her life.

"Because your name is Sajo Aika!"

Luna stared intently at Sajo Aika and answered sincerely.

At this moment, Luna suddenly fell to the ground.

The magic seal on the left arm is shining.

It was as if it was activated by something.

Finally the contract was signed successfully.
