Chapter 371 Don’t be too close to the family

 Heinalson's patriarch was actually not too surprised by Russell's promotion... After all, this child didn't always stay in his meditation room.

The first time he ran out to find Carpenter, he was already spotted by a high-level apprentice-level family elder who was guarding him there.

After all, people with some status within the family were paying close attention to the siblings because of recent events. The elder understood what had happened as soon as he realized that he could not clearly see Russell's condition.

Moreover, it is no secret that Carpenter and Russell have been working on their newly discovered little secret book in a somewhat mysterious way recently.

Patriarch Heinalson also planned to find a suitable opportunity to have a good chat with Russell to see if the family could use the resources that originally planned to send him into the Tower of Black Mystery to exchange this secret with Russell.

The family never asks members to contribute their talents for free...Only a fool would think that a smart person's ability can only be used once.

It is a reality that once it is free, it will be in vain for life.

It will also make more people no longer trust the family and only want to keep everything secret.

Of course, Patriarch Heinelsen does not deny that there will always be interests that can transcend the bottom line of people's hearts. He himself cannot guarantee whether he will do something excessive... But an apprentice is not that capable.

So they've been waiting for Carpenter to show up.

If Carpenter's qualifications are enough to advance, then it would be a bit difficult to say... The family can only provide a few resources, but this discovery is enough to shock the entire magical world.

At that time, I could only feel sorry for Russell.

But they will also provide compensation from Russell's family... There is no way, the family's mage resources are not many, and they have to consider it for the future!

I believe Russell will understand.

Even if they don't understand, they have no other choice...at most they can no longer hope to get closer to Russell in the future!

Anyway, there will be a new official mage in the family in the future.

The most important thing is that even for the sake of his family's future, Russell will not deal with his family because of this incident. If the relationship is cold, there is nothing he can do.

But Patriarch Heinalson still didn't want this matter to go to such a cruel step.

So when he saw Russell and Carpenter walking into the conference hall together, his attention was directly attracted to Carpenter.

It is true that this girl has not become a high-level apprentice, but it is obvious that her strength has improved a lot.

Although you still have to spend money to enter, it is different from the situation where you absolutely cannot become an official mage!

In other words, Russell's method is meaningless for those with poor talent, but it is not too difficult for those who are slightly inferior... These two brothers and sisters are not the only ones in the Heinalson family who have mage qualifications.

But only these two can become intermediate apprentices before the age of 10.

The remaining people are not without any hope, but their future is destined to be high-level apprentices.

Not even the town government can enter... Only those who have become intermediate apprentices before the age of 16 can enter. It seems that they have to learn some specialized spells and have certain qualification requirements.

Therefore, these people who take a long time to advance can only manage some chores in the family, especially in terms of external communication... People with mage qualifications always have a higher status in this world than ordinary people.

When they work outside, they will definitely not be discriminated against. In fact, it is not too bad.

But if it can be better, who wouldn’t want it?

If more people from their family enter the town government, why can they only count on two apprentices now?

Chief Heinalson thought quickly in his mind about how to talk to Russell, and finally made up his mind when the two children walked up to him.

"Congratulations on becoming a high-level apprentice at the last moment." He said with a smile and a proud tone, "Your family must be very proud of you!

Of course, the family is also happy for your performance. Having an official apprentice means a completely different thing to us!"

Russell narrowed his eyes and tugged at Carpenter who was pouting and about to speak: "Yes, all my sweat and tears were not in vain!"

"This is the reward given by the family to the official apprentices." Patriarch Heinalson smiled gently, "You can accept it first! After all, you have saved the family a lot of money!"

Russell also had a touch of pride on his face: "Thank you, patriarch, thank you family."

Then he took the thing and shut his mouth, without even opening the small box to look... This thing has been placed in the conference hall for everyone to see all year round, and everyone knows what is inside.

Since Patriarch Heinalson emphasized that it was a reward for a formal apprentice, it meant that there was nothing special in it.

Russell touched the copper ring on his hand and smiled without saying a word.

"What Carpenter said..." Chief Heinalson turned to look at the little girl, "Although it is definitely too late.

But this time, it is also a good thing to enter the Black Mystery Tower with Russell in advance. Maybe we can get enough elemental response in the magic tower's environment that is more suitable for the life of a mage.

If I can become a high-level apprentice within these six months, the family will not be at a loss."

Carpenter blinked: "Ah~ Thank you for your family's training. I will work hard."

After looking at the little fox with the little meerkat, Chief Heinalson decided to give up going around in circles... After all, he and his family would be sending them to the Tower of Black Mystery tomorrow, and he and his family couldn't afford to delay it.

It is impossible for him to use his own people to threaten his juniors. If he did that, would the Heinalson family still have any meaning in existence?

"The family is very interested in your method." He said directly, "But, Russell, you should also know that the family's resources are not sufficient.

I can only promise to give you the resources that I originally planned to send to the Tower of Black Mystery, and then also give Carpenter a reward as a formal apprentice.

In addition, we will ensure the treatment of your two families.

Finally, I will give each of you a level 1 storage ring... Although it is not a good thing in the magic tower, if you are an ordinary apprentice, you have to become a mage to get it."

Three cubic meters of storage ring.

Russell blinked, then used a lot of force to suppress Carpenter who wanted to object, and nodded readily: If he came up with this method himself, of course he would not be able to accept this method proposed by the family...

…Isn’t this just taking advantage of the relationship between him and Carpenter to take away his reward?

After all, giving him two level 1 storage rings is a bit ugly to say, but giving it to his cherished sister seems to make sense, not to mention that Carpenter's parents and brothers have also been taken into consideration.

Russell understood what Carpenter was agitating about. If it were him, he would not accept this approach of using small favors to him to deprive Carpenter of his best interests.

But this is the method from the elders of the Heinalson family.

The other party didn't ask him to keep it secret, so Russell planned to let it go as soon as it was good.

Moreover, the most important thing now is to pack up and prepare for tomorrow's trip... There is no point in tossing around for this immediate benefit.

His future is far away.

The family's doing this even helped him a lot... Now, even Carpenter, the family doesn't have much face to come up with trouble for nothing.

The only ones who will be unlucky are the little brothers and sisters in the future. Isn’t that just right?

In such a complex environment as the Tower of Mystery, it would be very difficult for him and Carpenter to save themselves and do things for the family... They would definitely not ignore it when it was a matter of life and death, but it was good to avoid getting involved in such nonsense as fighting for power and profit.

The most important thing is that Russell knows that the family can indeed provide him with more resources, but...he doesn't have a grudge against the family, so why would he be willing to inflict pain on the family for such a thing?

Carpenter glanced at Russell, roughly figured out what he was thinking, and said nothing.

Chief Heinalson really didn't expect that these two children didn't choose to bargain... He almost choked to death with all the theories he prepared.

But once he got the benefits, he wouldn't ask why.

Anyway, it would be nice to give more preferential treatment to the families of these two children in the future.

——

Russell and Carpenter slowly walked towards the Tower of Darkness behind Elder Ulrich, who had not spoken much since yesterday.

"Russell." Before reaching the entrance, Ulrich suddenly said, "The one you mentioned..."

"Everyone in the family knows this, and Master Gilbert is certainly more qualified." Russell said decisively.

Carpenter hid behind him and rolled his eyes irritably... Ulrich was actually a good person, but his personality was always so... Can he say this in public?

Do you want to let anyone know that the Heinalson family has a good inheritance and can even affect the official mage of the Black Mystery Tower?

No wonder the patriarch always respects his opinions but rarely listens to them.

"That's good, that's good." Ulrich muttered a few words, and then he couldn't help but say, "But in the future, when you get to the Magic Tower, you must hold back a little!

Russell, there’s no need to tell your family everything.”

Russell smiled helplessly: "I understand, don't worry!"

Then he quickly understood why Ulrich had such an attitude... The Gilbert they saw was so weak that only a layer of skin was left on his bones.
