I'm really not a top magician

"It doesn't matter. With Sha Tiao's current strength, even monarchs like you have to be cautious, let alone those killers who are not up to par."

"If it was the former leader of the Hassan sect, he might have threatened Shatiao's life. But such a killer no longer exists in modern times."

"Besides, whether or not Sandbar can pull out the Sword in the Stone is unimportant to me. I secretly promoted this Kingsmoot simply because I wanted it to be an opportunity for Sandbar to see more of the world, rather than being confined to this small clock tower."

Baoshi Weng calmly explained his ideas to Lord Barthemelo.

But there were some lies mixed in.

What Baoshi Weng really expected was to observe the fate of Sha Tiao Ai Ge through this king selection meeting.

In his eyes, if the fate of all living beings can be described as the same drops of water, then the existence of Sha Tiao Aige is beyond the norm, like a seagull soaring in the sky.

She is free and not bound by fate.

That's why Baoshi Weng is looking forward to seeing the unpredictable fate of Aika Sajo.

It just adds some fun to your already boring life.

Lord Barthemelo didn't notice the lie and continued seriously:

"But the problem is, among those magicians, how many dare to touch the Sword in the Stone? Even if they participate, they dare not give their all."

"And what Sajo Aika will have to face are assassins secretly hired by other monarchs, or assassins hiding in the dark."

"I guess they've already made their plan. Everyone will unite and try their best to defeat Sajo Aika at the King's Choice. Only then will they be able to assassinate Sajo Aika afterwards and avoid being held accountable."

Bartomero knew very well what those people were thinking.

There have long been rumors that Sajo Aika's body is connected to the root.

When this news came out, even a monarch who held a high position and had a majestic image could not help but feel a little uncomfortable.

If we can get to the root of the problem, then going against human nature is not a big deal.

What's more, a magician is a creature that will do anything to achieve his goals.

Even Monarch Barthemelo himself has done many dirty things like this for the sake of power.

In this game of power in the Clock Tower, the least valuable thing is human nature!

"Oh, even if it's as you say, what can I do? Can I stop the Kingsmoot or stop Sandbar? Things have developed to the point where I can no longer stop them just by saying so."

Bao Shi Weng asked back.

Bao Shi Weng is very clear about the current situation, but he has no intention of changing it.

Because the development and follow-up of this matter have completely piqued his interest, there is no need for him to make himself unhappy.

"Oh, I really don't understand. If you wanted Sajo Aika to avoid the various disputes in the Clock Tower under the pretext of training, there would be no way for them to stop it! But you insisted on letting her participate in this king selection meeting."

"Sajo Aige is indeed a genius, but pulling out the sword from the stone and becoming the King of Britain is ridiculous..."

Lord Barthemelo sighed helplessly.

He really couldn't understand what Bao Shi Weng meant by this king selection meeting.

It is not impossible to train Aika Sajo and let her participate in the subsequent Holy Grail War.

But what does he want from becoming the King of Britain?

Facing Lord Barthemelo's question, the Jewel Man replied with a smile:

"As for the reason why I did this, Lord Barthemelo, I'm sorry, I can't answer you for the time being..."

"Everything depends on Sha Tiao alone. She is also my favorite disciple."

After all, she is the only living disciple.

"If things continue like this, I'm afraid your wishes won't hold true. I have a vague feeling that things are beginning to destabilize. Not only those people, but even the things in the shadows seem to be starting to stir."

A sharp, cold gleam shone from Lord Barthelmero's icy eyes. Helping Shajo Aige was a crucial step in Lord Barthelmero's future, a major step toward consolidating the power of the Clock Tower. No one could interfere with his plans.

"They thought that Sajo Aika was the only opponent in this king's election, and that the other magicians would either not participate or not contribute."

"Then I'll give them some trouble!"

"In this King's Choice competition, all participants, regardless of winning or losing, will gain Barthemelo's friendship."

Lord Barthemelo pushed open the door, and inside were all the treasures of Barthemelo that had been passed down for thousands of years!

P.S.: Because Hedgehog Cat needs to do some self-examination recently, tomorrow's update will be random. If there is any missing, I will make up for it later.

Chapter 73 I Want to Set Foot on That Battlefield

"Sand bars!"

"Sand bars!"

It was not until there was a knock on the door that Sajo Aika finally looked up from the desk.

She yawned and covered her mouth slightly with the back of her hand.

The morning light streamed into the library from the high windows, and the lamp on her desk was always on.

She hadn't slept all night again, but this was nothing new, after all, Aika Sajo had never been someone who needed a lot of sleep.

"Sand bars!"

Luna's call rang out again, and Sajo Aika finally came back to her senses.

"coming!"

After replying lightly, Sajo Aige stood up, rubbed her numb feet a little, and walked straight to the door.

When I opened the door, I was greeted by Luna's figure.

"Shatiao, this is the list of people accompanying the king selection meeting. Please confirm it again."

Luna handed the documents in her hand to Aika Sajo.

Regarding the list of accompanying persons, Sajo Aika had heard a little bit about it.

It seems to be about a protection team formed to prevent some people from assassinating him.

However, for the convenience of scheduling,

The majority of the team members this time are from the El-Melloi School.

The leader among them was Kenneth El-Melloi.

I never thought that with two weeks left until the Holy Grail War, Kenneth would focus on himself and lead the team himself.

As expected, Kenneth treated this Holy Grail War as just an ordinary competition and did not take it very seriously.

Aika Sajo began to read the contents of the list carefully.

Except for Kenneth,

The list also includes Leif, Faraeus, and some other famous teachers in the El-Melloi School.

Regarding the joining of two old acquaintances, Leif and Fareus,

Aika Sajo wasn't really surprised.

Next, the few places at the end of the list are for other people of the same age.

Among them are Luna and Lisa.

Luna followed as her own thug this time,

The purpose is to help yourself eliminate those opponents with whom you don't need to fight.

As for Lisa, it seemed that she also wanted to participate in the King Selection Competition and prove herself, so she came along.

In general, Shatiao Aige is very satisfied with the team members who accompanied him this time.

Since they were chosen by Kenneth, it means that these people are all trusted members of the school.

Aika Sajo feels very reassured about such a security lineup.

During the competition, there is also Luna who can help.

Sha Tiao Aige was very satisfied.

After reading the list several times, she nodded:

"That's all. As for the selection of personnel, I trust Mr. Kenneth's judgment."

"it is good."

Sajo Aika returns the documents to Luna.

In fact, after the match with Richard, Aika Sajo felt that her expectations for this king selection seemed to have changed.

If it were in the past, she would definitely tremble in her heart when encountering such troubles.

In fact, fear in the heart is what is normal brain function,

If she wasn't afraid, Sajo Aika would rather interpret this phenomenon as a problem with her brain.

In the past, she would definitely find various excuses to avoid facing this kind of competition.

Even now, she was dealing with other people's expectations while studying magic harder every day.

It seems like I am participating.

Every time she dreams now, she will recall the scene of that day——

Thunder, wild hunt and the glory of holy sword,

Until the moment when the Wild Hunt rushed in front of him and he swung his holy sword,

She heard a roar, and an echo,

Rumble,

As if to wrap her up.

That surging heartbeat made her yearn for it every time.

The sound of her heartbeat when facing a strong enemy made her feel excited from the bottom of her heart.

After finishing the battle with Richard,

Her first reaction was not - I actually won?

But - I won.

Fighting had become something she took for granted since when it began.

When faced with Richard's challenge to a battle at the kingsmoot later, she originally wanted to refuse such a troublesome thing, but she didn't expect that she couldn't help but make an agreement with him.

Maybe Orange is right.

I was broken from the beginning,

I've dreamed of this world since the beginning.

From the very beginning, I had longed for something like battle.

So this time, she wanted to attend the king selection meeting,

It wasn't because she wanted to fulfill the expectations of everyone in the Clock Tower - if she just wanted to meet the expectations of outsiders, then she could just jump off the building and commit suicide.

She just wanted to once again step onto the battlefield that made her excited.

She wanted to find out what she really desired in her heart.

Thinking of this, Sajo Aika's mouth corners lifted up slightly and she smiled for some reason.

"You seem to have changed." Luna suddenly said.

"What do you mean?"

"I should say your eyes have changed," Luna said.

"What are you talking about?" Sha Tiao Aige laughed.

Luna said as if to confirm, "Yes, if you ask me, my heart has become stronger."

"How can there be such a mysterious thing?"

Sajo Aika cursed with a smile, then invited Luna in.

"sit."
