I'm really not a top magician

Page 64

After checking all the equipment again, Aika Shajo put on her luggage and pushed the door open to walk out.

The first thing that caught my eye was Luna, who was traveling with me, and Lisa.

Luna will be my thug this time to help me deal with other troublesome opponents.

For this point, Aika Shajo would like to give a thumbs up to Clock Tower.

However, Aika Satiao still wants to complain about Barca Melo's recent actions.

Lord Barthelmero specifically announced that anyone who participated in the king selection meeting could obtain a large number of prizes from him. Of course, the higher the ranking in the competition, the more prizes one would get.

This announcement by Lord Barthemello seems to be a means of recruiting talents from outside the Clock Tower in order to expand the power of his own school. Many people will try their best to find ways to participate in this king selection meeting in order to establish a relationship between the Barthemello School and the Law and Politics Department of the Clock Tower.

However, this was merely the thinking of ordinary magicians. They believed that Lord Barthelmero was simply using this King Selection Meeting to recruit talent. However, anyone with a bit of sense would definitely look beyond this, as Lord Barthelmero's recent actions, beyond just this announcement, had led to rumors of an even more significant announcement: the appointment of his heir, Barthelmero Lorelei, as Lord Barthelmero's successor.

The king selection meeting, abdication, recruitment of talents,

Combining these three aspects, it was not difficult for Aika Sajo to guess what the old Lord Barthemero was thinking. She was just planning to take this opportunity to do herself a favor.

On the one hand, by selling the friendship of the Barthemero School, the competition in the King's Selection Competition will be reduced. Because no matter whether you get a good ranking or not, you will get a good reward, so no one will fight hard for the competition, which will reduce the difficulty for Sha Tiao Aige to win.

On the other hand, having Lorelai, who had the closest relationship with Sajo Aika, become the next monarch was also a way to show goodwill to Sajo Aika, making it easier for her to work with him in the future. Furthermore, Lorelai was still a minor, and according to the law, a minor could only assume the title of monarch after reaching adulthood. Therefore, until then, the old monarch could continue to rule from behind the scenes. Even if Lorelai came of age by then, the school would be filled with the old monarch's supporters, leaving her powerless and unable to wield power.

"He's really a veteran." Sha Tiao Aige complained.

Thinking of this, she found the old Lord Barthelmero rather amusing. The magician's aspirations were clearly to protect the mysteries from disappearing and to explore even more ancient mysteries. Yet, the Clock Tower seemed to have gradually forgotten the original aspirations of its predecessors, becoming obsessed with the struggle for power.

It's really funny.

Sha Tiao Ai Ge pushed the door open and walked out. In an instant, the dark clouds dispersed and a ray of holy light shone above Sha Tiao Ai Ge's head.

Although everyone present was accustomed to such a spectacle,

But I still feel that Shatiao Aige is too extraordinary.

Is this really the talent of a Grand Magician?

Seeing everyone deeply intoxicated by his own wonders, Sajo Aika finally sighed helplessly.

Oh, vulgar human beings.

The Kingsmoot is held near a church, which is said to be the church where the Sword in the Stone first appeared, so it is now also called the Cathedral.

However, because it is not far from the clock tower, the transportation provided by the clock tower is naturally the British train. Nowadays, you can still see steam trains in Britain, which is really a witness to history.

When they arrived at London Station, just as Aika Sajo was about to board the train, a familiar girl came from behind them.

"Sha Tiao! Sha Tiao! Here I come!"

Sajo Aika turned around and saw that the person coming was Lorelai.

Although Aika Sajo seldom goes out on weekdays, it does not mean that she does not pay attention to the current affairs in the clock tower, because the Barthemello family has recently been busy with the matter of the monarch's succession.

Logically speaking, Lorelei, who was about to be promoted to monarch, had no time to attend the kingsmoot.

Is she here to see me off?

However, when Aika Sajo saw the backpack behind the other person, she was a little confused for a moment.

"What are you doing here?" Shatiao Aige asked Lorelai.

"I'm going to the kingsmoot with you."

"Did your father agree?" asked Aika Satiao.

"She agreed," Lorelai said, nodding in a servile manner.

But this is obviously a lie.

Aika Sajo has known Lorelei for a year. To put it mildly, this guy is a "three-no" person, and to put it bluntly, he is completely incompetent except for fighting.

Have you ever seen someone covering his face and saying that he didn’t lie?

Aika Shajo has seen Lorelei in front of her.

But now Lorelai's lying skills have improved a lot. At least she won't cover her face on her own initiative. But what's with your wandering eyes?

Shajo Aige was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously turned to look at Luna beside her.

Luna happened to be looking at him.

The two began to communicate with their eyes.

Luna: This guy is really lying. This is so stupid!

Aika Sajo: Stop talking, it’s too embarrassing.

Luna: But it looks like this guy sneaked out.

Aika Sajo: Absolutely.

Luna: So what do you say? Send her back?

Aika Sajo: Forget it, since she wants to come, let’s go together.

The spiritual communication between the two ended quickly. In fact, Sajo Aika's idea was very simple.

If you want to come, just come. There is no need to care so much.

And Sajo Aika also saw Lorelei's growth today,

In the past, Lorelai was a girl who knew nothing except combat matters. She had to ask questions about everything and was extremely dependent on her father's orders.

But today, Aika Sajo discovered that Lorelai seemed to have changed a little.

It seems to be getting better...

Shajo Aige shook her head and did not delve into the matter further.

After pulling Lorelai along, they entered the train car.

Luna also noticed the changes in Lorelai.

Just as she was about to follow,

Lisa suddenly grabbed me and said with panic in her eyes:

"I just saw the teacher's face. He looked like a completely different person!"

ps: I feel like this chapter isn't well written...

Chapter 79 Don’t die!

"I just saw the teacher's face. He looked like a completely different person! He looked very bad!"

Hearing this, Luna secretly felt something was wrong.

But before leaving, she still wanted to give Lisa some advice.

"I'll give you a piece of advice," Luna leaned over to Lisa's ear and said, "You have to be careful of Fareus."

"Hmm? You mean Brother? Why?"

Lisa felt a little strange. Although she was not sure why the relationship between her senior brother and Mr. Leif was so bad,

But on weekdays, my senior brother treats me very well.

Therefore, Lisa also has a good impression of her senior brother.

"Because he has had problems recently." Luna said seriously.

Although she also considered telling Lisa about the last quarrel between Leif and Fareus,

However, considering that Lisa had a good relationship with Fareus, Luna gave up this idea.

After all, before things are confirmed, no matter how much Leif and Fareus quarrel, Lisa will not suspect Fareus.

But it’s better to remind her now.

Luna looked at Lisa seriously and said, "Anyway, just be careful with them. It won't hurt anyway. Especially—probably when Leif goes out alone."

Lisa was a little confused and didn't understand what Luna meant at all, but seeing Luna's serious expression,

He also understood that she was definitely not joking anymore. After all, just like she said, it wouldn't hurt to be careful.

Only after seeing Lisa nod did Luna feel at ease to enter the train car to look for Rafe.

……

Luna walks inside the train car, looking for Rafe's whereabouts.

An ominous premonition had been lingering in Luna's heart, coupled with the fact that Leif had questioned her about the strange system of the king's selection meeting a long time ago, and that Fareus had suddenly interrupted the conversation.

This further deepened her suspicion of Fareus.

She always felt that Fareus was planning to write something, not only now, but also earlier in the Nelandriel workshop.

Fareus seems to be indifferent to everything, but as a killer born, he actually plans everything very well.

It is like a poisonous snake hiding in the grass, always looking for opportunities to hunt its prey.

All Luna has to do is to find all the remaining clues where he did it.

Unfortunately, Fareus has been very cautious so far and has not left any clues.

It can even be said that Luna has gained nothing so far.

Sometimes Luna even began to wonder if her father's death had made her overly obsessed with Fareus.

However, this confusion was immediately broken by the latest clues.

She witnessed the argument between Leif and Phareus.

Although in the eyes of others, this is just their usual daily life.

However, in Luna's opinion, that simple conversation seemed to contain other profound meanings.

She was sure that Leif had discovered the clues and purpose of Fareus.

But for some reasons, it has not been made public.

But Luna believed in Leif's character. He was an upright man.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is the kind of person who would commit suicide without hesitation if he realized that his existence might endanger the safety of the world.

Luna admired Leif very much for having such a belief.

This is a person who truly understands the big picture.

So she believed that Leif had his own difficulties and considerations for not telling the truth to others.

What Luna has to do now is just to prevent things from getting worse.

For example, assassination...

Phareus is a very powerful assassin, combined with his specially hidden magic,

Luna said without exaggeration,

Even powerful crown-rank magicians like Aika Sajo and Touko Aozaki could be assassinated by Fareus.

This possibility exists entirely.

So Luna just hopes to reduce the occurrence of such accidents.

……

After walking through several train cars, Luna came to the last car.
